Chapter Text
step step step, the sound of shoes laying flat against the ground as Yuki walked home from school. the sun had begun to set, giving the sky a beautiful hue of pink and orange all across the horizon.
it was just another day of the same path, same road and the same routine- it was getting old, Yuki had decided to finally change something as he makes a left turn towards the river.
the sound of water flowed filled his ear, grass brushed against his smooth fair skin, he looked around to make sure there were no bugs before sitting down on the ground. it felt a bit wet on his backside but the uniform was going to be washed anyway later.
he sat with his knees tucked close against his chest, arms wrapped around it as he rests his chin atop, the water glistened, reflecting the beautiful colors of the sun. he took notice of the lavender plant across the river, deep purple and green. but the one thing that caught his eyes was the boy sitting next to it. wearing the same uniform he did. "i know that guy" Yuki thinks to himself, recalling the guy's name and grade. "Scaramouche, a year above me i think" he continued.
out of pure curiosity Yuki got up and walked on the slippery rock across the river, approaching the lavender plant and crouched next to it. he took out his phone to take pictures, Yuki began to regret his decision to approach because the air suddenly felt heavy and awkward. he barely even know the guy- only rumors that Scaramouche was infamously rude.
"what, never seen a flower before?" Scaramouche asks, his tone condescending with a look of disdain on his face. now Yuki understood that the rumors may hold some truth to them. "ah..no, just showing it to my friend" he answered, it was a lie, but he didn't want to look like a loser to the guy.
Scaramouche scoffed, shaking his head with disbelief "he never seen flowers before? how lame." he stated, that alone made Yuki's mood sour, he pocketed his phone as he got up and assessed the situation- should he fight back or leave? he chose the latter. his heels turned, he took one last look at the flowers and then to Scaramouche and noticed the two share a similarity in color. Scaramouche's eyes were the same color, not exact but similar. either way it was enough for Yuki to began disliking the plant as he takes himself away from the area.
"i can't believe people like him actually exists...who would be that rude to strangers?" Yuki murmured to himself.
