Chapter Text
Shuichi wakes up to the sound of his alarm ringing. He yawns and grabs his phone to turn it off but gets a phone call. He sighs and answers it. “Hello?” Shuichi says in a sleepy tone. “GOOD AFTERNOON OUR PRECIOUS BOYFRIEND.” Shuchi smiled, he knew it was Kokichi with Kaede. Shuichi, Kaede, and Kokichi have been dating since they were in high school. Now they are in the second year of college.
“Good- wait it’s the afternoon already!?” Shuichi checked his phone and saw it was 3:43 pm. “I’m so sorry! I didn’t know I slept in late!” Shuichi kept apologizing and Kokichi laughed. Kokichi then turned his camera on and he smiled. “It’s fine Shuichi! Me and Kokichi are eating at Crepe Vine!” Kaede said with happiness. Shuichi sighed, “Sorry I over slept. Yesterday was tiring.” Kokichi giggled. “Shuichi it’s fine! We both know how hard your work is!” Kaede nodded.
Shuichi chuckled. “Yeah..” Kaede then stopped eating and grabbed the phone. “Hey Shuichi, when is your top surgery? Is it tomorrow?” Shuichi turned on his camera and placed it on top of books so they could see him grab his clothes so he could go shower. “Yeah it’s tomorrow at 4 pm. Also how are you recovery from that bottom surgery from 5 days ago?” Kaede smiled.
“I’m alright. It just hurts a bit sometimes.” Shuichi grabbed his binder, clothes, and phone and took them to the bathroom. “Ohh, it’s normal from what Aunt Komaru says. She says it’s gonna hurt for about 1 to 2 weeks.” Kaede nodded. “Yeah she told me last time I was by your house.” Kokichi grabbed the phone. “You guys are lucky! I haven’t gotten any surgery done and it isn’t fair!” Kokichi said obviously faking it. Shuichi chuckled. “Right, don’t worry, I’ll pay for your surgery once I’m done with mine or a week later.” Shuichi smiled. Kokichi was speechless “I..DUMMY I DON’T WANT YOU TO PAY FOR IT! I CAN DO IT MYSELF!!” Kaede sighed “Kokichi calm down- there is people staring.” Shuichi sighed and grabbed scissors and started cutting his hair a bit so it would go into the shape he wanted.
”I’m gonna have to hang up, I need to shower.” Kokichi smiled “Alright then! Call us back when you’re done!” Kokichi then turned the camera to Kaede who was eating her food. “Go on and say bye Kaede!” Kaede looked up and waved goodbye. Shuichi chuckled and waved back. He then hung up.
He smiled to himself and started to undress but look down at himself unhappy. He was born with the wrong body. He always has to look at it whenever he showers. He closed all the windows and curtains and turned off the lights so he didn’t have to see his body. He started the water and heard as it filled up and turned it off once it was at a perfect height. He got in and started at his ceiling. “I want this to be over with already...” he then slid under the water with only his nose and eyes out. His ahoge flopped down in a sad motion. He closed his eyes and went in the water fully.
‘Is this how peace feels like?’ He just listened to silence. He got up and sighed. He couldn’t stay in there much longer. He washed himself quickly and got out of the tub. He dried his hair with a blow dryer and put on his binder and shirt. He put on his pants and cuffed it at the end because it was too long. He looked at himself in the mirror with joy. He grabbed his dirty clothes and phone and headed out to the bathroom, and straight downstairs to the dining table. “Good afternoon Fathers.” Shuichi smiled. Makoto smiled back, “Good afternoon Shuichi! How’s my son today?” Shuichi sat down at the table. “It’s alright, I’m meeting up with Kokichi and Kaede later.” Byakuya didn’t say anything and just ate his food. “Ohh alright!” A butler soon came in with Shuichi’s food and put it next to Shuichi. Shuichi thanked him and the butler left. “Where is Rantaro?” Shuichi asked. Byakuya finished his tea and sighed. “He is with his himbo boyfriend again.” Makoto stared at Byakuya with a death stare. “Don’t call our future son-in-law a himbo!” Shuichi spit out his food. “THEY ARE GETTING MARRIED!?” Makoto shook his head. “Not yet atleast.” Shuichi sighed and finished his food. “Goodbye dads, I’m gonna get going.” He got up and grabbed his bag and left.
