(un)conditional

Oikawa had been fifteen when he got his first girlfriend. He remembers that her hair was long and pretty and brown, and that her eyes had sparkled, and that she had just a few more freckles than him. He remembers thinking she was the prettiest girl in the world. He remembers that the first time he told his dad about her, he'd been lectured for saying he loved her. He'd been told love was something conditional, something you had to earn and certainly not something to give out to the girl you sat next to in chemistry class. He remembers feeling guilty for wanting to say he still did. Oikawa was seventeen when he fell for Iwaizumi. or, Oikawas's been in love with Iwaizumi for longer than he'd like to admit, and the distance now between them only makes him fall harder.
