#also loading plates onto the barbell is the bane of my existence

[seiwas]

you know iwaizumi wants to get you home asap from the gym when he loads the plates onto the barbell for you.

he pushes you hard most of the time, making sure you’re fully independent in the gym—that you know what to do on your own. he makes sure you push yourself hard in your workouts too.

but, there’s something about how you look right now: strands of hair falling to frame your face, the baby hairs by your hairline slightly wet, sticking to the edges of your forehead. you’re huffing out, hands on your waist with your elbows bent. he can practically feel the heat radiating from your cheeks.

it’s a look he’s seen before, many times actually—in the gym, yes, sometimes on a morning run. when you’ve stood by the stove for far too long, helping him cook the bulk of your meals for the rest of the week. after a whole day of spring cleaning.

you look like this underneath him too, hair a bit more everywhere on the bed you share, after a night of—

yeah. he needs to get you home. now.
