Rumour Has It

Summary:

A casual glance through Kuramochi Youichi's text messages

(NOTE!: with a complete and utter lack of foresight, it didn't occur to me until it was pointed out that the formatting on this thing goes completely wonky on mobile...I tried fixing it, I hope it works better now ;A; I'm so sorryyyy! And thank you so much Shan, for pointing it out, you're a lifesaver!!!)

Notes:

i'm supposed to finish Correlate and yet here i am not doing the thing i should be doing /WHYAMILIKETHIS?/ but even though this is pretty dumb and drabble-ish (and prolly doesnt really count as a fic?) i had fun with it :P so i hope you do too!

also should i worry about how much i think about these boys?

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

So…apparently Sawamura has a girlfriend?

                                                                             what 

                                                                                where did u hear that from? 

  I have my sources

                                                                                haruichi. got it. 

I see you are calling my brother by his first name now?

[Delivered 10.23 p.m.]

Now where did you disappear to Kuramochi-kun?

                                                                                wouldnt he be better able to tell if bakamura has a gf 

                                                                                seeing as they are so chummy 

I thought the two of you were chummy too

                                                                                y does H [backspace] yur brother think Sawamura has a gf 

                                                                                your* 

Apparently, Kanemaru asked him

                                                                                so basically this is hearsay???? 

Idk

That’s why I am asking you

                                                                                [ … ] 

I mean “find out” in case you are wondering

                                                                                 [ … ] 

                                                                                [ … ] 

Did you fall asleep on your phone again

                                                                                I’ll ask around 

I’d advise…discretion

                                                                                what do u mean 

I mean don’t just go up to Sawamura and ask if he has a gf to his face

                                                                                i wasnt going to do that!!!! 

Mmhmm ~

Anyway, you must be busy

Practice and classes and all

Later ~

Google Search: how to turn off read receipts

***

Anything?

                                                                                hello to u to ryou-san 

                                                                                too* 

My, my

Are we a little testy this morning?

[Delivered 7.54 a.m.]

I’m assuming you turned off your read receipts

[Delivered 8.05 a.m.]

So you can snoop through your roommate’s phone and pine after his gf

But you can’t reply?

                                                                                he isnt dating her!!!! 

                                                                                and IAM NOT pining aftr anyone! 

Hmm

You sound sure

I’m assuming this means you checked

                                                                                yes 

And?

                                                                                nothing 

No cute contact names, no msgs planning dates?

                                                                                nope 

 Ah

But I suppose it makes sense

After all, if Sawamura got a girlfriend I’m sure he would tell you

You ARE his trusted roommate and senpai after all

Sorry to put you through all the trouble

I suppose I left a part of me in Seido after all ~

[Delivered 8.12 a.m.]

***

                                                                                did u tell ur brother bakamura has a gf 

Eh?

No!

I mean I only mentioned in passing that Kanemaru-kun asked me if he did

Is something wrong, Senpai? :s

                                                                                well? 

Sorry?

                                                                                does he? 

                                                                                have a gf 

Oh!

I mean

Not that I know of

                                                                                thats not a yes or a no 

I mean if he did

He’s not the type to talk about it?

                                                                                not even to his best friends? 

Well…

It’s a personal thing

If we’re saying hypothetically

He’d say eventually, I guess

                                                                                [ … ] 

                                                                                [ … ] 

                                                                                [ … ] 

Senpai?

Sorry, is there anything else you wanted to ask me?

Just that I have to go practice with Zono-senpai…

                                                                                yea ok go 

                                                                                AND DONT TELL YOUR BROTHER I SAID ANYTHING

                                                                                ah i’m sorry 

                                                                                its just a rly dumb question

                                                                                well more than normal weird 

Weird?

                                                                                uh well 

                                                                                according to kanemaru he keeps spacing out in class 

                                                                                keeps having this dopey look on his face 

                                                                                i kinda noticed the past few days that hes always humming too

                                                                                senpai? 

I’m sorry Kuramochi

But I don’t think it’s my place to tell

***

                                                                                IM GOING TO KILL HIM 

Now, now

Violence is never the answer

…even though it always seems to be YOUR answer             

                                                                                HOW DARE HE NOT TELL ME 

We don’t definitively know yet

Chris said “it’s not his place to tell”

                                                                                THATS BASICALLY A YES RYOU_SAN 

                                                                                SO HE MANAGED TO INFORM A PERSON 

                                                                                LIVING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD 

                                                                                BUT NOT TH E GUY HE SHAERS A ROOM WITHH?? 

Well

Pitchers do tend to have a kind of

“special” relationship with catchers

You know how he was with Chris

                                                                                YES BUT THE ONE LOOKING AFTR HIS HELPESS ASS IS ME!!!! 

Aww
