For this writing meme with words: matsudai + 15. pack? (I'll probably send more but for now I'm just matsudai starved and you're the only person who indulges me with this pairing :* )
Oh no! We can’t have you starving ><
I’m sorry it took so long, but here it is!!!
“Hey, Daichi?”Matsukawa sidles up to where Daichi was sitting on the couch. He hums inresponse, without taking his eyes off the book he’s reading.
“Wanna try somethingnew with me tonight?” The statement made Daichi pause, and he slowly lifts hiseyes away from the book and turns to look at Matsukawa’s face. He’s expectingto see a leer of sorts, or any indication that this is Matsukawa’s lame way ofbeing suggestive, but all he finds is the usual bored expression, albeit hiseyes are holding a little glimmer of excitement and mischief.
Daichi frownsslightly. “What does something new mean?”
Matsukawa grins thenholds up different colored rectangular foil packs, all with small pictures ofanimal head in the middle, spread out in both his hands like a fan.
Daichi stares atthem, then back to Matsukawa’s eager face. “What are those, exactly?” He closesthe book he’s reading and adjusts his sitting position to be able to faceMatsukawa comfortably.
“They’re facialmasks.” He says, like that explains everything. And maybe it does, for otherpeople who actually know what they are, but not for Daichi. As such, Daichionly blinks up at him, waiting for him to continue explaining.
Matsukawa lowers hishands. “It’s the trend right now. For skin care.”
“The trend? For skincare?”
Daichi scoffs at him.“Since when did you care about skin care? You, who barely even shaves, and onlydo it when I tell you to.” He picks the orange colored one and reads the labelwith skepticism.
“What are you evensupposed to do with this?” He puts it back down with the rest. Why did Matsukawaeven get so many?
“You put in your faceand it’s supposed to make it look and feel better.”
Daichi frowns deeperthis time. “Are you saying I’m ugly?”
“What?! No!”Matsukawa shakes his head frantically. “It’s not that! I love your face! It’samazing!”
Daichi raises an eyebrow,quelling the amusement from showing on his face. “Then why do you suddenly wantto put facial mask on my face?”
“I’ll be putting themon as well. It’s not like you’re going to be the only one.”
“Yeah, but why?”Daichi mild accuses, crossing his arms defensively in front of him, not lettingup the irritated act. He’s not truly angry, he’s mostly just curious about thesudden request, but he’s always had a kick for seeing Matsukawa flustered.
Matsukawa sighsdeeply and slumps his shoulders dejectedly. “It’s for a dare.”
Matsukawa nods.Daichi rolls his eyes. “Let me guess, Hanamaki?”
“Of course.” Daichisighs. “What are you supposed to do, exactly?”
Matsukawa startsrubbing the back of his neck, but he looks quite hopeful when he meets Daichi’seyes as he explains. “Just to convince you to wear a facial mask, and take a coupleselfie and post it online.”
“Well, yeah…”Matsukawa says slowly, “Although it will make me feel better and it will be agood way to get back at Oikawa, if our picture actually gets more like than hisand Iwaizumi’s.” The glint on his eyes was unmistakable.
Daichi ponders for itfor a moment, and when he looks at Matsukawa again, he sees the mischief onthem as well. Daichi isn’t one to take competitions lightly, no matter howpetty it may seem, and if it’s Oikawa they’re talking about, then he’s keenerabout showing him.
“Then, let’s put thatfacial masks on and take that damn couple selfie!”
Suffice to say, theirphoto (the two of them donning the facial mask; Daichi got the tiger one on,while Matsukawa went for the panda, cheeks squished close, goofy smiles ontheir lips) got way better reception, and that’s as good as any victory.
I had fun experimenting with the pairing (and the word). XD Thanks for sending in one, Kath! Hope this is enough to get you through. Fighting!!
