Chapter Text
Oma Kokichi. A boy who wonders through life causing trouble and such. A boy who can never sit and relax, always has to do something until another boy named Saihara Shuichi comes into his life.
Oma just happens to stumble upon a small music shop that opened. "Hey bitch! Check this out.." He points to the shop and his friend Iruma Miu turns around following his gaze. "Huh? A music store hm?"
The store had a name. It was 'Tune-Up Music Shop' Oma puts his hand on his hip and studies the shop.
It was small but not too small. He looked through the windows and saw guitars and basses displayed along with some other musical items.
"Wanna head inside and check it out? We could mess with 'em a bit?" Iruma had a smug smile on her face and Oma couldn't help but smile too.
"Nishishi, take it slow. Don't scare them too much although your face does that enough, huh?" He laughed and ran into the store "You little- Get back here!" Iruma ran in after him, putting him into a headlock.
"I'll have you know I'm one of the most hottest creatures alive!" He grabbed her arm trying to get her off. "Who told you that? Whoever did clearly lied to your face."
They kept arguing and fighting until a person came up to them. "Hey! If you're gonna fight do it outside otherwise knock it off!" They both look up to see a blonde maybe around 5'7 or 5'8. She was wearing semi-baggy jeans with a long sleeved sweater over the sweater was a varsity jacket that had a K on the right.
"E-ee! Sorry! No need to yell at me!" Iruma quickly takes her grip off of Oma and steps back in defense. "Sorry, but you were kinda ruining the peace and quiet.." the girl has a apologetic smile on her face
"Anywho I'm Akamastu, the owner of Tune-Up" Akamastu puts out her asking for a handshake.
Oma, who's always up for being annoying, quickly grabs her hand and starts violently shaking it. "Ohh, You're the owner? That's so cool!"
Iruma pulls Oma back away from Akamastu"Oi, Stop lying to her you little shit!" Akamastu's thankful smile slowly comes off "Lying?" "Yep that was a lie! I totallllyyy hate this shop already. Or is that another lie?" Oma gives her his iconic smile and actually takes the store in.
He can hear a swift melody coming from somewhere in the store. He concludes it's someone playing the guitar with how obvious it's not coming from ceilings speakers.
"Don't mind the Twink. He's just trying to get on your nerves." Iruma patted Akamastu's shoulder "Ah, right I'll keep that in mind.." Akamastu said with a confused smile.
Oma walks slowly to the sound of a electric guitar being played. The person playing is clearly good at it even if Oma doesn't know anything about guitars.
He sees a person sitting down playing the so-heard guitar. The melody was calming but also kinda impressive.
Oma stands there watching this person play. They had navy-like hair with a strand in the middle that stood up.
He couldn't see much (considering he was looking at their back) but he could see their body moving with the music.
He didn't know the song but it was nice. Not the usual type of music he'd listen to though
Oma usually listened to Hyperpop or stuff with really loud bass boosting.
The person finally came to an end, sighing in joy. "Ooo! That was cool!"
Oma came up from behind the person, jumpscaring them
"Ah!" This person, who Oma can tell is a boy now, jumps and falls off of the stool he sat on.
Oma starts laughing his ass off like it was the funniest thing ever. "Gah..What the hell was that for?!" The boy asked in confusion on the floor.
The boy slowly got and this showed Oma the boy was much taller which he was used too. He was 5'1 so he was pretty short especially for a male.
"Well why not?! I wanted to applaud you for you amazing" He drew out the maz in amazing "performance! But since you're unappreciative then I guess I'll be on my way!" Oma puffed up his chest and began pretending to walk away in anger
The boy quickly scrambled to say something "A-Ah, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to be rude. Thank you for the compliment.." He lightly bows in forgiveness.
Oma stopped and coughed back a laugh at the bow.
"Hm? Well, I guess I can forgive since you begged so nicely."
He looked at the guitar in the hand of the boy and saw it was black with a white blop by the end the strings.
The boy followed his Oma's gaze and saw he was looking at the guitar. "O-oh, This is a Mitchell TD 100. Pretty basic but gets the job done. I usually use Squier Stratocaster but I kinda didn't grab it before I left the house." He chuckles at himself before clearing his throat "Did you wanna use it?" He hands the guitar out to Oma.
Oma looks absolutely confused about whatever the hell this guy just said "Uh, yeah I'm good. Don't wanna embarrass you with how good I am!" He lightly pushed the guitar back to the man as he feel a slap on his back.
"Whaddya mean? You know nothing about instrument especially guitars." Iruma calls him out on his BS and crosses her arms.
"Liar! I know everything about 'em!" He retorts pointing his finger in her face
"Really? Then what's a pedal?" Akamastu asks him with smile that Oma can tell is supposed to be calling him out and he wasn't backing down
"A pedal? You don't know what that is and you own a music shop?!" Oma gasped putting his hand in his chest for emphasis.
"Wh-What? Of course I know what a pedal is, I'm testing if you what it is since you know everything about guitars!" Akamastu put her hands on her hips
"I said that? I don't remember.." He lied putting his finger on his chin, looking up, acting like he was in deep thought. "Nope! Don't remember saying that!" Oma giggled and flashed his mischievous smile.
Iruma butted in "God, you get on my nerves! Also who's this perv? He's looking at my gorgeous tits." She grabs her chest, basically pushing her boobs out for show "I mean I can't blame him but still!"
The blue haired male stepped back in defense "Huh?! I never even looked at your chest!"
Iruma rolls her eyes "I betcha wanted to though, huh?"
"Alright, that's enough! Saihara would never, he's not that type of guy!" Akamastu stands in front of the male named Saihara defending him.
"Saihara? Is that your name pretty boy?" Oma asks changing the subject.
Akamastu steps out of the way, letting Saihara introduce himself
"Ah, yes. Sorry I didn't introduce myself earlier but I'm Saihara Shuichi. Nice to meet you two.." He showed a anxious smile but it was cute
Although Oma was waiting to see if he would catch on to wait he said about him
Oma did mean it when he said Saihara was cute but it was mostly just to tease him.
"Wait..Did you call me cute?.." He asked his face beginning to show some red.
Oma simply shrugged, sitting down in the chair Saihara was in
Meanwhile Iruma was leaning in, inspecting Saihara.
"Say...Have we met before? You look pretty familiar.."
"Uhm, I don't believe so? I'm not really from here so I do doubt that we met" Saihara puts a hand on the back of his neck, clearly uncomfortable with how close Iruma is getting
She studies him a bit more before shouting "Eureka, I got it! I've seen you online!" She steps back in pride before continuing "He's a pretty popular person on MonoTube. He makes original music and cover and shit. Am I right?!"
"Oh uh Yeah. That's me. Although I wouldn't really use the word popular.." He slouches a bit before his assuming friend Akamastu, pats him on the back "I would! You have at least 4 million subscribers on MonoTube!"
This perks Oma's attention quite a bit.
"Oh?! So you're like super popular?!" Oma jumped up from his seat.
"Look, I don't think it's that big of a deal. Especially since I don't really post anymore..." Saihara stares at the ground in embarrassment.
"Hm, why not? Did something happen?" Oma really only asking because it's better than being bored. It's not like he actually cares about this random apparently internet famous guy he just met and why he apparently doesn't post on his channel anymore.
"Uhm, it's nothing really. Just can't find the time or motivation to play anymore y'know.." Saihara's head is still facing the ground but his eyes keep switching between Oma and the ground.
Oma tilts his hand to the side "But you were just playing right now! Now you're lying and I hate liars!" You can hear Iruma sigh in agony at Oma literally being a liar himself.
"A-Ah I'm not lying! It's just different that's all." Saihara lifts his head up looking at the guitar in his hands. "Playing right now is just for me, not really anyone else. When I post stuff it just doesn't feel the same anymore.."
"Pfft! Yeah right. It's just playing the guitar." Oma grabs the neck of the guitar inspecting it "What's so different about it?"
"I don't know how to explain. It's just different playing by yourself than for an audience." Saihara chuckled and raised his hand in defense. "But I mean I don't you'd really understand because you don't play. Maybe you should start?"
Saihara then gave Oma the guitar"I'll even teach you if you want? Of course if you're not interested at all forget my offer!" Saihara smiled
Oma was not a music person whatsoever and he didn't even want to learn but this guy made him second guess his answer. Maybe not the guitar (To basic for Oma's taste) but something else.
"Hmm. I don't know, I don't really like guitars.." Oma lightly set the guitar on the ground " But maybe something else you know how to play?"
Oma was pretty much flirting at this point for the fun of it. Which is why he made really obvious he was.
Although Saihara didn't really notice. (Oblivious huh?)
"Oh. Uhm what about bass? I think you'd like that one." Saihara walks over to a Instrument that looks like a guitar but with less strings.
Oma and iruma look visibly confused "That's just a guitar.." they both say in unison. They stops Saihara in his tracks and he turns to face Kaede who looks almost as shocked as he does.
He shuffles towards Iruma and Oma "Do you really not know what a bass is?"
They both shake their head no and Saihara sighs.
"This is gonna be harder than I thought.."
