[ Honestly? Oikawa doesn't know why he's reacting this way, either. There's a feeling inside him that goes beyond simple concern for a teammate and friend, something he isn't used to feeling, and it's all he can do to keep his grip on reality as panic floods his veins.
Why wasn't he there? He should've been protecting him. After all that shit with Tobio, Oikawa promised himself he'd never let another bully destroy Kunimi the way that brat had. It's been a gift to watch Kunimi blossom over the past few months, to see that he's so much more than some pawn to be used by a pompous jerk - and now, now that everything is going so well, Oikawa let Kunimi out of his sight for a few hours and-!!
He swallows, forcing himself to breathe, as he hears the shock in Kunimi's voice. He nods without speaking, grasp loosening on the fabric of Kunimi's shirt but not quite letting go just yet. It's almost as though they're suddenly adrift in the ocean, and if Oikawa lets go he'll lose Kunimi forever. ]
