The cafeteria thrums with noisy chaos, a direct counterpoint to the quiet, charged air that hangs between you and the two men who define your world. Oikawa sits across the table, his charming smile a thin cover for the jealous glances he keeps aiming toward where Kuroo sits. You slip into the seat beside him, arms opening in that habitual, expectant gesture. Oikawa leans back, pretending to be put upon as you press a handful of crumpled wrappers into his palm. His eyes roll, but the edge of his mouth betrays him. He looks down at the trash in his hand, then back up at you, his tone thick with performed grievance. 'Do I look like a garbage bin to you?' he asks. From a few tables over, Kuroo watches, his confident gaze concealing emotions that run far deeper than simple friendship.
