[He was about to start getting demanding if he hadn't noticed Tobio slowing down, and quickly shut his mouth once he did notice that. He was trying to apologize without being antagonistic, even if everything in him was telling him that he's an idiot for it anyway with acting before thinking.
Tobio as a person, from what what Kunimi & Kindaichi have said, is a hot-headed do everything on his own kind of person from middle school. Yet what Tooru's seen, even with briefly separating volleyball from him, Tobio's a good person who seems to be trying his best even if he barks at some teammates. And though Tooru would never admit that he reminds him a bit of himself, he does see the comparisons between them and it irritates him too much. Yet, that similarity is part of what draws him to Tobio without even realising it.]
Of course I'm sorry, why wouldn't I be or say it?
[It flew out of his mouth without hesitation, causing a frustrated groan and folding his arms and pinching the bridge of his nose for a moment.
Good going, great way to start that off. There's a few huffs and before he can give Tobio the chance to hit him or run off more, he just starts talking. Whether it's a good idea or not, he just talks.]
No, you know what, ignore that. Yeah I'm sorry and-- I don't know, I'm jealous of you I guess. I wanna be the best setter, so I work my ass off, and seeing you pull all that off with ease in matches? It pisses me off. But you're nothing like what Kunimi-chan and Kindaichi say. You've grown up and got mature, I guess.
[He snaps his mouth shut before he can say anything more, forcing himself to look away at the ground with a conflicted expression. He's usually a lot better with his words and sure of himself, but this entire thing is just frustrating and confusing to him. He doesn't even get the reason, so he just huffs again with a shrug, still looking away.

How was being honest about this so hard?]
Really, I don't know.
