Chapter Text
It was an really beautiful june.
They both stood at the rooftoop, one looking at the view under him and the other running towards him.
"oh! Sorry for being late.. I didn't think it would took so much of my time Enji!"
"no it's okay! I don't mind it at all"
Enji took a step towards the other one.
"tell me, i've been thinking about this a lot, what did you wanted to tell me? I of course understand if you're not comfortable enough to tell me yet!" said the man in sweat.
"I'm moving away from Japan"
Huh?
"well, Enji i don't think i've heard righ-"
Before he could end his sentence Enji ran to him and hugged him.
".. Hoshi hasn't been feeling well for some time.. Japan's hospitality is.. Too expensive for my parents right now..plus my mom found a good and stable job at the other country so.. "
Tenji's vision got worse, it was probably because of his tiredness or.. Something was dripping from his face?
" Tenji! Please don't cry! We still have 2 more months together!.. What have i done.. I'm SO sorry i should have.. I should have-"
The blue haired one wasn't able to say anything more because of his tears soaking from his face.
Tenji hugged Enji even harder and tried not to make the other one even more guilty, but with no use.
" It's all my fault! We' ll never see eachother again because of me-"
"shh, of course it's not your fault.. I mean as long as you're and your sister safe i can't complain."... Oh the silence that came, or rather the crying that was heard was so dry...
"that's what i thought.. you can't cry on demand Tsukasa! You sound just like a little kid faking!" said the purple one Breaking away from the grip and stepping away from the other one taking of his wig.
"HUH?? IT WAS PERFECT! At least i think it sounded authentically.. Well i think we have to work on that part" answered Tsukasa standing while struggling to take off his wig.
"ugh.. It's so obviou-" before Nene could comment the other's act she was Interrupted by Emu
"TSUKASA!! RUI!! IT WAS REALLY GOOD IN MY OPINION! Yes, we should work more but we always do, and after that we're always much better! It was really emotionally, i REALLY REALLY REALLY enjoyed watching this part!" jumped the pink one on the diva while clapping in her hands.
While Rui was walking off the scene and Tsukasa finally pulled off his wig Nene called the group's director.
" So! We're going to walk home today right?"
He looked towards their diva with his smirky face.
"well of course, if you want to!"
Then they all went to the changing room dedicated to them.
While walking to the changing room Rui decided to start some kind of conversation.
"... Tsukasa-kuuuuun~" (WELL IT FOR SURE STARTED WEIRD)
".. NO, I AM NOT GIVING YOU THE PROMOTION TO EXPLODE ME INTO THE SKY NOR ANY OTHER PLACE!" said the blond monitoring Rui's face which was sweating.
Why was it sweating tough?
"You must be tired Rui! That's why you're talking literally nonsense!"
They finally reached the room. While opening the door Tsukasa made sure that Rui will go to the couch first.
"wait Tsukasa-ku-"
"NUH-UH! YOU'RE STAYING IN THIS POSITION, WAIT I'LL BE RIGHT BACK!"
As he said, The star went to his bag to grab a bottle of water and some pills. Then he started browsing in his bag.
"uuh is your head aching? Or maybe your belly??"
It wasn't his head.. Nor his belly, it was something else he couldn't tell.
"Well, i think i'm just a bit thirsty and tired.. But it's all okay! I have-"
.. Again he was stopped by Tsukasa walking up to him lowering his head to look dirrectly into his eyes.
"Here you go! Cold and very tasty water! You can take a sip"
Then Star took his change clothes standing still looking at Rui.
".. Well it is opened, so if you-"
"O! It's totally okay i really don't mind us drinking from the same bottle!.. BUT WHAT IF YOU MIND.. I DON'T HAVE ANYMORE BOTTLE-" Tsukasa started searching in the room for another drink but Rui quickly stopped him.
"It's okay, i did actually thought about you being uncomfortable. Thanks, i really appreciate it"
He opened the bottle, and then thought "does this count as a kiss?" he took a sip "i hope so"... What did he just thought?..
"PFHH!" he spat out all of the water and started choking. SUCH A STUPID REASON FOR DYING RUI!!.
"OH MY GOD RUI YOU'RE OKAY?" Tsukasa ran to him to help him somehow but before he could reach him he slipped hitting the other man's stomach straight with his head.
And suddenly, he stopped choking.
".. Is this some kind of test from the gods?.." said the blond taking his head off Rui.
For Rui though.. It was worth it,being saved by tsukasa's head.. WHY IS HE THINKING OF SUCH THINGS?? 1++1
Rui stood up, finally took his clothes for change and went to change yourself without saying anything.
" Rui! Wait! Are you okay?.. Okay i just made it awkward" said Tsukasa. He gave up and just started changing thinking about previous situation.
~
Some time passed since the boys changed,Rui was already walking home with Nene holding his bag like his life depended on it.
"Now.. After the practice you've been acting rather.. Well unusual. Is there any progress in your relationship with Tsukasa?"
Rui frozed and stopped playing with the bag. He looked at his childhood friend with a questionable expression.
"And what you mean by that?"
"Well Rui, i think that i can tell from your behaviour towards Tsukasa during the next 6 months that somerhing is in between you, and by that i mean.. You like him right?"
".. Huh?"
.. Does Rui like like Tsukasa in THAT way?
He again started walking, but now only looking at the ground.
". IT'S KINDA OBVIOUS.. God it's so embarrasing."said Nene then hold Rui's shoulder so they would stop for a moment.
" Now,for the past 6 months you've been talking about him in almost EVERY conversation we have-
He really talks about Tsukasa that much?
"-your face when you look at him is just uuh you know.. Like you are crazily in love with him-"
Is he looking at Tsukase with such a face?
"-and how you've been acting weird even when he's only looking at you, you dumbass!"
... Is he really acting differently around Tsukasa?
Nene and Rui just stood in here, Nene staring right at him and Rui just standing in here.
Does that mean.. I.. Like.. Tsukasa?
"... How do i know it is love? " his head raised just at the right height for Nene to see him.
". UUH...i don't really know, haha, hahahahaha.." said the girl that is in a relation.
They were just standing in there, looking at each other. If you would look closely, you could saw a little drop of sweat running down the boy's cheek.
They are so stupid.
"Wait but aren't you in a relationship with Emu? Maybe.. You'll ask her to talk with Tsukasa.. Maybe about me and-.. No, it's selfish, don't mind it at all please" Said Rui, then he started walking again. This time, faster.
Nene also started walking even faster than him.
"No, i think it's a good idea. I can ask him also." She tried to make the director overthink less.
But.. Is this really it? Isn't it just platonic?.. I don't know. I'm.. Not sure.
" i have to understand my own feelings and how i feel about him first, and then we can continue.. whatever this mess is. "smiled the higher one and then looked into the road.
On his left there was his house, so that meant that they are going to split now. It's for the better now,Rui have to think for some time.
" oh, it's your house already. Alright then, good luck with Tsukasa, Rui!!" said Nene waving her hand towards him.
"Goodbye Nene, See tou tomorrow at school!" (if he will even attend) Rui said ash he turned to his home's doors unlocking it with his key.
His parents should have been already in there, it was 6 p.m so that means that their job would already come to an end.
He always liked when his parents were at home, he really looked up to them. They were the best in the world, of course sometimes they would go in some fights, but most of the time they had the same language.
His dad was an inventor, just like him and his mother worked in one of the antic stores that selled every thing you could imagine. He really did love them.
"Hi mom, dad!" said Rui entering the house in which only dark was seen.
Oh, of course, they are probably already asleep after such a exausting day. He doesn't mind, normally he would talk about his problems with Tsukasa through messages but now he was the cause of his worries.
He turned on the light in the kitchen to cook something for him and his hunger. He checked the fridge, nothing, then the shelfs and other shelfs, nothing that you could make a dinner out of.
He slowly cringed down while turning down with an empty look.
".. Parents aren't in here right?... Right, they told me that they are going to the grandma to take care of her. Because of the whole situation i totally forgot" mumbled the director changing the direction of his head to look at the other house's rooms.
He's all alone
"i guess then they will come back soon. Let's not worry so much and.. And make even more robot ideas for our next show! It's going to be very sad, so-" started telling out loud what was in his mind for him to not feel so lonely.
While walking to his room he passed through a lot of trash, it wasn't anything new for this home though, it is always like that.Used socks, some stains. Even his little creations! That's what made this place special and comfortable for him, it wasn't perfect.
"So that means i again have to ask Tsukasa for-! Oh right.. Tsukasa-kun, hah who could have thought that even at a small mention i would panic.. We'll have to see my dear universe! If the brightest star in the galaxy will beat my precious, beautiful darling robots!. Haha.. It's a good idea for a show, i think i'll contact Tsukasa and tell him my amazing idea! "
When the boy was in his room he took everything that wasn't his blanket and pillow (overall a lot of things). He sat down to just lay down next.
He felt something weird inside of him, uneasy for sure, something like anxiety?
To be honest he did times to times felt anxiety ran on him, especially in middle school but now it was something different.
Something odd was eating him up from inside that made him feel uncomfortable.
".. I.. Don't feel so well. Is it because of my stupid feelings?.. I should just ignore it, tomorrow in school i will tell Tsukasa about the idea.." Before he turned off his phone he got a message from his parent, to be more specific his dad.
It said:".. Rui, your mom had an accident when we were returning home, right now we're at the hospital. Don't worry, mom's okay at the moment. But because of her ilness which is getting worse she fainted, fortunately there was a hospital close to take her. Don't wait for us, we'll be back at the tomorrow's morning probably. We love you! "... Huh?
Mom's ilness is getting worse.. He knew it! But mom always had to skip this topic... What if something will happen at the night? Wait, what hour it is again-
1 am, but it was just 6 pm when he walked in. I guess he got carried away by his thoughts again.. He should really do something about it... The only think that was left for him was just go to sleep, no shower, no meal and no happy news. Just sadness and hunger tearing him apart.
When he was just about to fall asleep in his not really comfortable couch he remembered the Blond's face. Suddenly the loneliness dissapeared which was after that fulled with happiness. Yes, he is alone,
but not his heart, in his heart there are only his amazing groupmates.
Amazing and caring Emu, smart and thoughtful Nene and beautidul, amazing, caring, sweet, adorable, attractive,glamorous, lovely, pretty, charming, cute and-.. He could talk about him more and more but he just fell asleep while thinking to himself.
