[But 'showing' means getting up and helping, right?? That's what Yamaguchi takes it as, standing up after Oikawa a moment later. He does a pretty good job of balancing, too, all things considered.]
All right. Um, this way! [OVER THE RIVER AND THROUGH THE WOODS yeah no there's only one hallway to go through to get to the bedrooms and 40% of it is unsorted laundry anyway, watch your step]
[It really is like Iwaizumi's place! He takes note of a few items, trying to decide which of them are Yamaguchi's and which belong to the other members of his family, but mostly he keeps an eye on Yamaguchi, though he seems to be doing a good job of navigating though it on his own.]
[Moving with a little less coordination the longer he walks, Yamaguchi heads into his parents' room (which looks to be in the permanent state of not-quite-tidiness that signals its inhabitants are coming and going too often to really clean) and slides open the closet. The futon's tucked into the back, and he has to catch on the wall for balance as he tugs it out. Luckily the bedding is wrapped in a sealed bag so no dust will have gotten in.]
Here, Oikawa-san~! [He looks absurdly pleased with himself as he hands the futon over.]
[Oikawa tries not to take in too much of Yamaguchi's parents' room, or at least not look like he is. It would be hard not to pick up on the unlived in state of it, and it makes Oikawa want to introduce him to Iwaizumi's family to get him on their list as someone to show affection, Yamaguchi could use more of that even if he does get on with his parents. Kind of funny that he'd easily introduce Yamaguchi to them but introducing him to his own parents is far less important. He thinks Iwaizumi's family would like Yamaguchi.
He takes the futon from Yamaguchi with more haste than possibly necessary, he'd really rather Yamaguchi wasn't crushed under a futon if his balance gives up.]
Come on, Yama-chan. If you show me where your room is you can go clean your teeth and wash up, okay?
[That smile is a delight though, he wouldn't mind seeing more of that.]
[Yamaguchi starts a bit: his blown pupils follow the motion of Oikawa snatching the bedding with the slightest hint of a delay, like the audio from a loudspeaker falling out of sync with the image on-screen. But he quickly smiles again.]
Right! My room! [He starts to lead the way once more. As he steps back through the hallway, Yamaguchi keeps glancing back continually at Oikawa to make sure he's following without seeming to be aware that he's doing it. There's a slightly nervous air about him now, but he doesn't seem overly occupied with it.]
If you want, you can put your futon down next to mine, Oikawa-san. The room isn't much smaller than my parents', but I'm not that great about organizing…
[It's not exactly messy (or at least it won't be once he picks up the scattered laundry off the floor that he woke up too late to worry about this morning), but there's still not a lot of extra space.]
[Oikawa shifts his grip on the futon into one a little more comfortable as he follows behind Yamaguchi, from the way he keeps looking at him, and his delayed reactions, sleep seems like the right destination. Oikawa hopes so anyway. It's so strange taking care of people in something other than volleyball, it's so strange wanting to. But Yamaguchi's proved good at drawing unusual parts of himself out so this is no different.]
Next to yours sounds perfect, Yama-chan. [He glances around the room with a faux-critical eye, then breaks into a smile.] I like your organization, only as much as is necessary. [His own room is practically sterile, but that's because he keeps anything important at Iwaizumi's and only has the bare minimum in his own space.]
Go and brush your teeth, you'll thank me in the morning~
But…what about you, Oikawa-s...I mean, Oikawa! [Yamaguchi was going to ask the other boy if he needed things like maybe a toothbrush, or pajamas and whatever else people need when they're going to bed. But what are those things again? Honestly laying down just sounds so nice right now.]
[The smile on Oikawa's face creeps into genuine and pleased territory at Yamaguchi correcting himself, that's really not helping with sticking to his guns about not taking advantage of Yamaguchi.]
I'll be fine, Yama-chan, I can take care of myself. You don't mind me making my own way around, do you?
[Yamaguchi stumbles a little on the way but does make it to the bathroom in one piece. He stares at himself automatically in the mirror for a long, tired moment of insecurity before he finally sets to brushing his teeth and washing his face. He still can't believe Oikawa of all people is here at his house. Here to see Yamaguchi.]
Um, […] …I-I'm finished! [Yamaguchi stands in the doorway, holding a pair of his own pajamas tucked under one arm, and another overlarge T-shirt and athletic shorts wrapped over the other.]
You'll need something to sleep in if you're staying…right? [The words come out almost shyly.]
[Oikawa almost, almost, comes a hair's breadth away from saying that he'd be fine sleeping in his boxers. Then he realises that the alternative is sleeping in Yamaguchi's pyjamas and stops himself, because why would he say no to that? Plus, it will actually be more comfortable than not.]
I will! Thank you, Yama-chan.
[He finished setting up the extra futon, and while waiting the couple of minutes for Yamaguchi to return, tidied some of Yamaguchi's stray clothes away into a pile, unsure of where to put them. He's not good at waiting with nothing to do.
He hesitates, unsure if any of the clothes Yamaguchi's holding are meant for him.] I can change in the bathroom while you change here?
