Work Text:
Hiori Sits At A Table In The Art Room, Quietly Sculpting. Hes Supposed To Be At Practice, But He Just Can't Bring Himself To Go.
He Sculpts A Body. Hes Making A Figure Of Someone's OC. She's Has Green Hair That's Pulled Up Into Two Short Pigtails And Bangs That Covers One Of Her Eyes. Her Eyes Are A Slightly Desaturated Pink. She Has A Light Pink Shirt, Dark Blue Pants, And White Socks.
Hiori Often Makes Sculpted Figures And Art Pieces For Commission. He Needs To Get Money For Himself Somehow. He Lies To His Parents About Spending Their Money On Soccer Equipment, And Instead Buys His Needed Art Supplies.
He Hears The Door Open And Someone Walk Inside. Hiori Pauses His Sculpting And Looks To The Door. It's Rin. He Walks Closer To Hiori, "Why Aren't You At Practice? We Started Without You." He Says Looking At The Table.
Hiori Feigns Surprisement, "I Didn't Realize We Had Practice Today." He Says, Tilting His Head. Rin Scoffs, "Bullshit. If You Wanna Skip Practice, Dont Be On The Team. We Don't Need Anyore Lukewarm Losers." Hiori Nods And Starts Cleaning His Supplies. Rin Inspects The Unfinished Project, "Who Is This?" He Asks.
Hiori Picks It Up By The Dried Base And Sets It On A Drying Rack, "Someone's Character. It's. a Commission." He Looks Back At Rin And Smiles, "Lets Get To Practice? I Think If I Miss Anymore Ego Will Call My Parents." His Eyes Flicker Something Dark At The Thought Of His Parents, But He Walks Ahead Rin. Rin Didn't Miss The Emotion.
Hiori Rushes His Way To The Locker Room, Changes Into His Practice Clothes, And Makes His Way To The Field. Ego Calls Him Over, "Hiori, Where Were You?" He Asks, Somewhat Annoyed. Hiori Looks Down, "Sorry Coach, I Was Caught Up Doin' Somethin'. " He Apologizes. Ego Shakes His Head, "This Has Been A More Frequent Occurrence. Do I Need To Call Your Parents?" Ego Says Sternly.
Hioris Head Shoots Up to Look His Coach In The Eyes, "No!" He Shouts. A Few Of Their Teammates Look At Him. He Shrinks A Little, "Sorry." He Apologizes Again. Egos Eyes Are Slightly Wider Than Usual And He Sighs, "Go Run Your Drills." Hiori Nods And Walks Away.
----
Hiori Walks Back In To The Art Room To Get His Sculpture. He Grabs His Sculpting Supplies That Are Stored In A Plastic Bag And Puts Them In His Backpack. He Walks To The Drying Rack And Feels The Clay. It's Dry So He Picks It Up And Places It Gently In His Backpack, Making Sure It Isnt In A Spot Where It'll Break Or Get Damaged.
He Zips Up His Backpack And Turns Around. He Jumps A Little, Rin Is Infront Of Him. He Let's Out A Breath, "Jeez..Dont Scare Me Like That." He Chuckles. Rin Shrugs, "Come Over." He Says Flatly. Hiori Blinks, "Wh-What? Why?" He Asks. Hiori Wouldn't Consider Them Close Enough To Be Invited Over.
Rin Looks Away, "You Dont Like Your Parents, So Come Over. You Can Work On Your Little Project If You Want, Too." Hiori Smiles. He Guesses Rin Took Notice If His Little Shout At Practice, "Okay. Let Me Ask My Parents." He Pulls His Phone Out And Opens His Contacts.
Mom
Can I Go Over To Rins House? Hes Going To Teach Me Some New Soccer Tricks
Three Dots Appear.
Yes. You Better Be Back By Tomorrow At 3. And Make Sure To Not Cheat Your Diet.
I Know
Thanks
He Turns His Phone Off And Looks At Rin, "She Said Yes." Rin Nods And Starts Walking. Hiori Walks By Him And They Walk Silently The Whole Way To Rins House.
When They Arrive, They Slip Their Shoes Off. Hiori Can Hear People Talking In The Living Room And Looks At Rin. His Brows Are Drawn Together In Annoyance.
Rin Walks It The Living Room And Hiori Follows. On The Couch Sits Sae, Shidou, And Another Person With Multiple Scars In His Body That Hiori Doesn't Know. Shidou And The White Haired Boy Are Leaning In Sae, Talking It Each Other. Sae Looks At Rin and Hiori, Raising A Brow. Shidou Looks Up At Them Too, "Awww~ Rinrin's Got A Friend!" He Coos. The Other Boy Looks At Them, "Rin! It's Been A While Yes?" He Smiles. He Has A Pretty Spanish Accent. Rin Scowls At The Trio And Grabs Hioris Wrist, Dragging Him Away.
Hiori Stumbles A Bit But Regains His Foot. Rin Pulls Him Into His Room And Shuts The Door, "Stupid Sae.. Hes Not Supposed To Be Home. And Bunny's Not Even Supposed To Be In Japan!" He Mumbles While Pacing Around His Room.
Hiori Looks Around. It's Pretty Plain. Theres A Bed In The Corner, A Desk With A Computer, A TV That Sets On A Dresser Against The Wall, And An Empty Shelf. He Hums, "I Like Yer Room." He Compliments. Rin Stops And Nods, "I Don't Know If You Want To Do Anything, But You Can Sit At The Desk To Work On Your Thing." He Sits On His Bed And Pulls Out His Phone.
Hiori Sits At The Desk And Pulls Out Some Plastic Wrap, Covering The Desk So He Doesn't Get It Dirty. He Pulls Out The Figure And Supplies And Gets To Work.
----
Hiori Stands Up From The Desk And Stretches. He Manages To Finish The Sculpting, Next He Will Have To Paint. He Grabs His Phone And Texts The Client That He'll Finish It In, At Most, Two Days.
Rin Looks At Him, "Are You Hungry? Sae Bought Take Out For Us." He Says. Hiori Nods And Watches Rin Stand Up. They Walk To The Kitchen And Grab Their Food.
The Trio Left, So They Eat On The Couch. Rin Turns On A Show To Watch. Hiori Watches Rin Eat Before Looking At His Own Food. He Picks It Around. His Diet Says No Fast Food.
It Runs Deeper Than The Diet.
Rin Glaces At Him, "I Though You Were Hungry." He States. Hiori Shakes His Head, "I Think I Was Just Mistaken. Ill Save It For Later." He Smiles. Rin Frowns Slightly But Brushes It Off.
Hiori Puts His Food On The Coffee Table And Watches The Show.
----
Hiori Sits Next To Rin On The Bed. He Scrolls On His Phone, "Rin, Do Ya Have A Consol?" He Asks, Still Scrolling On His Phone. Rin Hums, "Downstairs." He Slides Off The Bed And They Make Their Way Downstairs Once Again.
Rin Turns On The Console And Hands Him A Controller. They Choose To Play Dead By Daylight.
They Play For An Hour Or So, Laughing And Joking. Well Hiori Was Laughing And Rins Jokes Sound More Like Statements.
Hiori Turns To Rin, "We Should Get To Know Each Other!" He Smiles. Rin Shrugs, "Whatever." He Responds. Hiori Thinks, "Okay.. Whats Yer Favorite Animal?" He Asks. "Owls." Rin Respond With No Hesitation. He Looks At His Hands, "Whats Your Favorite Movie?" Hiori Tilts His Head, "Ready Player One! It's Sci-fi. Whats Yers?" Rin Huffs, "The Shining. This Is Boring. Lets Watch Something." Rin Says.
Hiori Makes A Noise Of Complaint But Settles Against The Couch Again. Hiori Looks At Rin, "We Should Watch Ready Player One." Rin Grunts But Turns The Movie On Anyways.
At Some Point, Hiori Moved His Head To Rest On Rins Shoulder. Hes Had A Crush On Rin For A Little Bit Now. He Didnt Know If It Was Okay For Him To Rest On Rin Like This, But Rin Never Pushes Him Away So He Assumed It Was Fine.
The Movie Ends And Hiori Looks Up At Rin, "Did Ya Like It?" He Asks Excitedly. Rin Shrugs. He Always Shrugging, "It Was Ok. I Liked The Shining Reference." He Says. Hioris Smile Grows, "Great!" Rin Stands Up Abruptly, And Hiori Almost Falls Over.
He Stands Up Aswell And Follows Rin. He Checks His Phone, It's Almost 1 A.M. Hiori Looks At His Clothes, "Uh- Rin? Do Ya Have Any Clothes I Can Borrow?" He Asks Awkwardly.
Rin Shuffles Through His Dresser And Tosses Hiori A Pair Of Owl Pyjama Pants And A Plain White Shirt. They Change And Shut The Lights Off. Hiori Lays On The Side Of The Bed Closest To The Wall.
They Lay Silently, Staring At The Roof. Hiori Furrows His Brows. Theres A Patch Of Torn Paint On The Roof. Hioris Eyes Go Slightly Wide And He Glances At Rin. He Turns On His Side To Face Rin, "Are Ya Okay?" Damn, He Has Balls. Rin Turns His Head, "Yes? Are You? I Can Hear Your Stomach Growling." He Says. Hioris Mouth Parts A Bit, "Y-Yeah? And I Don't Think That's My Stomach, It's Probably Just Digestion Of Something. And I Can See Where The Paint Is Torn." He Says. Maybe He Shouldn't Have Brought It Up. Rin Turns Pale And Faces Away, "Go To Sleep, Hiori." He Asserts.
Hiori Sighs And Places A Hand On Rins Shoulder, "I'm Always Here To Talk. Goodnight." He Whispers And Turns Back To The Roof, Falling Asleep.
----
Hiori Wakes To The Sound Of Clanking Pans. He Opens His Eyes And Sees Rin Sleeping Soundly In His Arms. He Blushes And Analyzes Rins Sleeping Face. His Mouth Is Slightly Open And Theres A Little Bit Of Drool On The Side Of His Mouth. Hiori Giggles Under His Breath And Gently Wipes It Away. Rin Shuffles And Opens His Eyes, Looking At Hiori.
Hiori Smiles And Moves Back, "Sorry." Rin Sits Up And Yawns, Hiori Can See A Faint Blush. Rin Walks Out Of The Room And Hiori Follows.
They Walk Downstairs Where Bunny (Hiori Figured Out That Was His Name), Sae, And Shidou Are. Shidou Looks At Them, "Oh! Rinrins Friend Stayed Over!" Hiori Waves And Rin Walks To The Fridge.
Rin Hands Him A White Monster. Hiori Looks At The Lable. It's Zero Sugar And 10 Calories. Hiori Opens It And Sips, "Ive Never Had This One.. And I Didn't Know Ya Liked Monster." Rin Hums, "Sometimes." Sae Steps Up Behind Rin, "Were Going Out." Rin Looks Back, "I Don't Care." The Trio Walks Out Of The Door And Rin And Hiori Are Left Alone.
Rin Walks Into The Kitchen, "Do You Want Ochazuke?" He Asks. Hiori Nods. It's Low Calorie And Not Junk. He Sits At The Dining Table This Time And Waits.
A Few Moments Later, Rin Brings Some Over. It's Topped With Salmon. Hiori Eats Quietly And Quickly. Rin Eats Slower.
Hiori Finishes And Just Stares At The Empty Bowl. He Wraps His Arm Around His Stomach, Feeling Sick. Hiori Looks At Rin, "Wheres The Bathroom?" He Asks. Rin Looks At Him, "It Better Be To Use The Bathroom. Dont Throw Up In My Toilet." He Grumbles. Hiori Looks Taken Aback, "What..?" Rin Points Upstairs, "Up And On The Left." He Goes Back To Eating His Food.
Hiori Nods And Gets Up, Following Rins Directions. He Shuts The Bathroom Door And Looks At Himself In The Mirror. He Looks At The Toilet, Reminding Himself Of Rins Words.
He Groans In Frustration And Walks Out Of The Bathroom. Rin Watches Him Walk Back Down And Stares At Him. The Bowls Are Gone And Rin Is On The Couch. Hiori Shakes His Head, "I Didn't. And I'm Not.. I-Im Not Bulimic." He Sits Next To Rin. On The TV, The Shining Is Playing. Rin Shrugs (Again With The Stupid Shrugging!) And Moves His Eyes Back To The TV. Hiori Looks At Rin, Inspecting His Body.
His Eye Catches Something. The Sleeve Of Rins Pjs Come Up Just Enough For Hiori To See A Scar. He Sighs, Worried But Also Curious On How Rin Looked While Doing It. Hiori Looks Away And Turns On His Phone. It's Only 10, So He Has A Bit To Kill.
He Scrolls On Tiktok And Lays His Head On Rins Shoulder Again. Rin Hesitantly Leans His Head Against Hioris, "Do You Know English?" Rin Asks. Hiori Nods, "I Guess. Not Really Proper English Though. I Learned Mostly From Social Media, So It's A lot Of Slang." He Says And Rin Nods.
Hiori Blushes. Does Rin Like Him Like Hiori Does? Why Was He Putting His Head On Hioris? Rin Pulls Away And Looks At Hiori. Hiori Looks Back At Him. He Sees Rin Blushing And Smiles, "What?" He Laughs Little. Rin Moves Closer And Closer. Hioris Smile Falls And He Feels Himself Blush Even Harder. Rins Lip Quivers A Little.
Hiori Closes The Space And Kisses Rin. Rin Doesn't Kiss Back, And Hiori Pulls Back Slightly Before Rin Pulls Him Back In And Kisses Him.
Hiori Smiles And Wraps His Arms Around Rins Neck, "I Didn't Know Ya Could Even Feel Love." He Says Between Kisses. Rin Pulls Back, "I Like You." He Whispers. Hiori Nods, "I Like Ya Too." He Whispers Back Before Kissing Rin Again.
They Continue For A Few More Moments And Hiori Pulls Back, "I Didn't Know We Were Close Like That." He Jokes. Rin Swallows, "Be My Boyfriend." He Says Quickly. Hiori Nods, "Okay." He Responds. It Feels Kind Of Awkward To Be Honest... But Hiori Couldn't Care Less Becasus Now, He Has A Boyfriend.
