[So he should, and realizes that (or at least accepts it) when he reads the “idk” disclaiming the statement. He shouldn’t put any of this on Kunimi’s shoulders. He knows he has all the control here, and he doesn’t want to abuse that for a second. With his feelings also involved though, he doesn’t want to scare Kunimi off either.]

That’s fine, yeah. Tell him I’ve been seeing you.

[It’s a subtle difference in wording, but what he hopes will be enough to convey what he’s trying to say. It isn’t just about sex anymore - for either of them.]

[Kunimi's heart starts to beat double-time when he sees that shift in wording: seeing him? And the reaction obviously shows on his face, because Kindaichi's at his side in a second demanding to know what's had him so weird lately. He won't take evasion as an answer anymore.

God. Holy shit. His hands are sweating too hard for him to grip the phone properly.]

ok
am i saying that bc
like is it just for kindaichi or is that rly what ur doing?

i mean what were doing
i just didnt know but its cool im good w it

Yeah.

[Is that what you want?

[No. Backspace. Own up, Iwaizumi. Stop pushing this kid to validate your own feelings - he’s the one that needs that right now.]

That’s what I want.

[Oof. That's brave of him to say so plainly after the rejection that started their whole bond. Iwaizumi really is amazing...]

me too

[Whatever Iwaizumi says next, it'll take Kunimi quite awhile to respond because he just told Kindaichi that he's dating Iwaizumi and Kindaichi is losing his mind. He's supportive, of course, but - anyone would have to admit that he just got some enormous news dropped in his lap, and he's not great at controlling his reactions to anything.]

[It’s understandable, and that’s what Iwaizumi figures is probably happening. Honestly, he should probably bite the bullet and inform his own best friend about the update soon, but he’s not about to sell Kunimi out to Oikawa without his permission (which is also an excellent excuse to cover up that he himself is afraid to have that conversation).

[He texts him anyway though, partially because he now has a nigh insatiable itch to have contact with him, and partially to say this:]

Don’t let that freak you out, okay?

And don’t give me any shit for looking out for you. I always have, and I’m always going to. No matter what happens.

Got it?

ok sry kindaichi was yelling
but he just left lmfao

he looked over my shoulder and was like
u just decided ur going out u cant do that over text!!!
and said u should be here not him

so yeah if u wanna come over no ones home but me
