- So if I win this game, you buy me a bunch of cakes? - Akito asked with suspicion.
- Exactly. - Rui gave him an innocent smile.
- And if I lose? - the ginger boy asked with a frown.
- We will kiss right in the school. - Rui's face immediately got his firm sly expression.
- Huh?! - Akito's eyes widened. This sounded too embarrassing to be true. He probably meant that they will just need to kiss on a school territory, and they could just go somewhere so people won't see them...
- Oh wait, not just in the school. But either in a hall, classroom or a staircase. - Rui's voice turned into a slow whisper. Akito could feel goosebumps going across his skin. He just couldn't imagine them doing that in such public place.
- Uhh... - he started to think and scratched the back of his head. Of course he wanted the cakes, but... Does it really worth if he will lose? Well, Rui doesn't seem like playing better than Akito in this game. He probably said that to make him feeling embarrassed.
Rui was gazing at him, waiting for his response patiently.
- Fine. - Akito mumbled and took the cards. - Now, you better prepare your wallet already. - he said with a smile. He was completely confident and determined. After all, they played a bit already, and he knew he does it quite better than Rui.

- Shinonome-kun! Stop running! - the voice was chasing Akito through the school. Everyone were gazing at them - of course a screaming boy who chases another boy would attract a lot of attention.
Rui had not a single care in the world if someone would see him kissing Akito. Unlike the latter one.
This was the day Akito finally realized how useful his running skills actually are. He prayed to the gods that the teachers would notice them and make Rui stop, but for some reason he didn't meet a single one on his way. His heart was pounding - he didn't freaking want anyone to see them kissing in the middle of school. Every time he thought about it, he started to run even more faster. He reached a coridor that should be near Rui's class, but there still were no teachers at all, not even talking about those who are aware of the purple boy's weird behavior. Not only there were no teachers, there were no students as well. Almost.
- Hahahaha! - Akito heard a voice and saw a figure ahead, and it made him stop in a shock. Please, not this guy.
- Tsukasa-senpai?! - he asked with confusion. He was slowly starting to understand what is it going to be.
- You got right into the trap, Akito! - Tsukasa slowly approached him, making him step back, but then Akito turned his head back to meet another guy's eyes. Of course there was no way to run.
At this moment he didn't even know how to feel. He wanted to resist against those two as much as he can and try to run away, and yet he didn't for some unwanted reason. And aside from all that, he understood that he willingly agreed to the bet and he lost it. And after all, while he was thinking, he got surrounded by those evilishly smiling troupe members, this approach made him step back, and then step back again, until he felt the wall behind him.
- You two... - Akito muttered, the angry look on his face made Rui laugh a bit.
- Well, you lost and you should keep your words, Shinonome-kun. - Rui came closer to him, with his friend being right next to him in order to catch poor ginger if he decides to still fight back.
- Of course I did. So, is there anyone around? And why is Tsukasa-senpai here?! - Akito looked at Tsukasa completely shocked. He didn't expect him to know about their relationships to begin with. But he is Rui's close friend, after all. Yet, it was still super embarrassing for him. Akito gave him some grumpy expression, meaning that he don't want him to look while they're performing their stuff. Tsukasa smiled contently, turned his back and crossed his arms.
Akito looked around, seeing nobody else in the coridor, while Rui was slowly getting closer to him. After their eyes met again, Akito suddenly smiled. That honestly made Rui feeling surprised, but he was glad that the ginger boy finally accepted his fate. He got as much close as he could and leaned in, then Akito closed his eyes and nodded, feeling the other boy crossing his arms behind his back. And finally, after about a second they kissed, even with more passion than they both expected. It was feeling somehow unique, the whole situation gave them both an insane amount of adrenaline. For some reason Akito even felt like he forgot that they can be seen by other people, and that Tsukasa was here. He was somewhere in other world from all that adrenaline in his blood and those incredible emotions. After some time Rui finally leaned back, leaving Akito feeling himself good and pleased. The ginger wasn't quite sure if he regret losing in this damned card game or not. Yet he was smiling and feeling the warmth spreading throughout his body. He took a deep breath to calm himself, and Tsukasa finally turned to them.
- Hah hah. I couldn't reject Rui's request to help him to perform such a magnificent love scene. You better don't run from your fate next time, Akito! - Tsukasa looked incredibly proud of himself, giving Rui a pat on the shoulder. - You got such an amazing guy as Akito as your boyfriend, so you better take a good care of him. And you, Akito! You got my nice friend and troupe's director, so you better take a good care of him as well! - he said it that loud and encouraging, especially last words, that it probably could be heard at the other side of the school. Akito looked at him with such an annoyed look that Rui couldn't help himself but laughing.
- Thank you, Tsukasa-kun. - he said with relief and looked at Akito once again. - Now, I suppose you should head to your class, Shinonome-kun. We will meet after school. - he gave him a pat on the head and made his way to his own class. Tsukasa gave them one more look, let out a small laugh and headed towards his class.
- Umm... Goodbye. - Akito said, feeling his breath started to calm as they separated.
That was an astonishing experience, something he didn't expect to happen at all. Even though he knew he could expect everything from Rui.
Yet he forgot he might didn't show his card games skills on purpose. But he glad he didn't think about it. With that thought in his head, he finally slowly headed to his own class, still feeling his heart pounding and his chest burning from all the emotions and feelings.
