Existence Existence

Snow dropped on the ground. Even if he currently sat in a park, on a bench, it was silent. After all it was Christmas. He hated that time. It was the worst day. Or at least that is what he thought. Ibushi sighed and rubbed his arms. Slowly he began to feel the cold. He couldn't go home. Or better said: Didn't want to. His family probably had forgotten, that he existed. Like always on Christmas.

But not just his family, his friends too. It was easy to forget him after all. He thought what his friends probably did. As he knew, because they talked about it the whole week, Kinshiro, Yufuin and Atsushi would spend one day together and the next day with their families. Same for Akoya, Zaou and Naruko.

He didn't know what Yumoto did, but he probably spend Christmas with his brother.

It was probably better, that they forgot about him. He would just ruin everything.

The green-head stood up from the bench and walked away. He didn't know what to do now. No one would miss him. He hated it and he admitted, that he even hated his family and friends for it. But he gave himself the fault for it. After all they would notice him, if he would be better, wouldn't they?

As he wanted to walk again, as he heard something. Turning around his eyes widened.

"Ibu-chan-senpai!"

Yumoto was running to him, while smiling brightly at him.

"Yumoto-kun?"

He stood there numb, until he felt how arms hugged his neck. Yumoto jumped at him and hugged Ibushi.

"Yu-", he was interrupted by the first year.

"Senpai! I finally found you!"

The first year jumped of him and took his hand.

"Let's go!"

"Huh? Go, where?"

"To my home! After all we need to spend Christmas together. And I need to give you your present!"

"Your home? Wait, what is with Hakone-san?"

"Gora-an-chan? He is by a friend. He wanted to take me with him, but I said, that I would be with you."

Ibushi widened his eyes. With him? But his brother!

"Why?! I'm not as important a-"

"Ibushi", Yumoto interrupted him again.

Ibushi stopped with speaking. How Yumoto said his name, so unlike Yumoto. Yumoto turned to him, with dead serious eyes.

"Everyone is important. You too Ibushi."

"…"

"Let's go senpai, I will cook us something hot. It's cold, right?"

After some minutes the green head smiled.

He hated Christmas, but he liked Yumoto. So he maybe didn't mind it so much, if he could celebrate it with Yumoto.
