limitlessmonster sent a message:okay but what if iwa doesn't cry, what if he holds it in so that his chest contracts. his heart stops and starts and he stutters for breath to keep himself together bc he's the ace and the others need a pillar, need their strength. what if he waits, waits until his fingers tingle and his breaths grow heavy and the pain is forgotten enough that he goes numb, goes still with fists clenched and heart lodged in his throat, burning a trail everywhere. and then oikawa shows up. and he crumbles. breaks

iwaizumi had his head hung low, but he was holding it in. i can do it, he told himself. i won’t break down now. but then he feels the hard pat on his back and yes, he crumbles. the pat was like oikawa unscrewing his emotions and in that moment they overflowed. and once its undone, he found it impossible to stop, and tears followed against his will
