Rain chapter 1

"Eiji, let me introduce her. This is my girl friend, Yukari."

Eiji walked toward his home from school. His tought fly to the past day's memories.

"Nee, Eiji, please don't tell anyone about it. It… it would embarrass me. I just tell you, since you are my best friend. Nee, Eiji?"

Eiji breathe out heavily. His step paused.

"So it was best friend, eh…" whispered him softly. He was looked so depressing. Slowly, he looked up to the sky. The sky was grey. It looked like rain would fall. He stared at the sky blankly; never cared it was start to rain.

Eiji never knew when that feeling come. He never noticed it, but, yes, he loved Ooishi. Maybe it's weird, however, they both were guy, but he couldn't blame at Ooishi. It was not his fault for him became straight. Yes, Eiji thought, it was my fault to fell to him.

Pouring rain fell slowly. None would notice that rain also fell from a pair of neko-looks eyes...

"Gakuto, wait,"

Gakuto paused.

"Hnn? Yuushi? What?"

Yuushi smiled wide.

"There's somethin' I want to tell you. Can we go somewhere after practice?"

Gakuto shrugged. "It's ok. I'll wait for you, but don't too slow! I'll leave you!"

Yuushi's smile became wider.

"I know, I know. I won't make you wait (I'm sure you're the one who'll make me wait)."

"Jya, see ya! Kantoku said he wants to tell me something, so I must go now! (Che! It must be something like 'you're too weak' or 'you must increase your control' or something like that)."

"Unn, ok, see you!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So? What is it about?" asked Gakuto after practice. They were at school's garden now.

"Hm.. let's see… I dunno I must start from where… so may be I must say it directly, ne?"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand! Just tell me!!"

"I love you, Gakuto"

"…….."

"…… What? Repeat it, please?"

"I said I-love-you. Can't you hear that?"

"Wa----wait, Yuushi!!! It's too sudden!!! I.. I don't know what must I do!"

"It's easy. Just say yes," Yuushi smiled.

"It--- it can't be too easy like that!! I…" Gakuto paused.

"What? You what? Do you like someone else? So just tell me, who's that."

Gakuto's eyes widened. That person appeared in his mind. He shook his head.

"It's not like that! I just… it's just too embarrassing for me!"

"So just tell me who that person is."

"That person? Who?"

"The person that you like."

"I… I just tell you it's not like that!!"

"Ok, I'll wait for your answer tomorrow. I hope it will be a pleased answer."

"Yuushi, wa-wait!"

Jya, Gakuto, see you tomorrow."

Yuushi turned his body and left Gakuto. Gakuto was confused.

What's the hell is this? Why Yuushi suddenly said something like that?

Gakuto shook his head. He didn't know what he must do. He sighed. Aargh, it was so embarrassing! I really really dunno what must I do???

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it was raining again. Gakuto ran through the pouring rain. Shit, what's the hell this is? Yuushi said something odd to me before, and now it's raining?! What bad luck today!

And he never knew, it was fate or not.

Gakuto ran to the nearest bus stop. There was someone there, before Gakuto. Gakuto felt his heart beating fast.

It was him.

Gakuto remembered Yuushi's words before.

"Do you like someone else?"

He didn't know it was love or not. But, his heart always pounding so fast everytime he remembers this person.

Kikumaru Eiji.

It was weird, because they just met once. But since he beaten by Kikumaru, he always thinks about him. He couldn't call it love; he didn't know what it was.

Kikumaru seem didn't notice his existence, so he just sat next him. The rain was pouring, hid Gakuto's pounding chest.

One minute… five minutes…. Ten minutes was passed, but he not yet noticed Gakuto. After fifteen minutes, he just noticed.

"You are… Mukahi from Hyoutei, right?"

Gakuto was glad Kikumaru still remembered him.

"Ye-Yes! You are Seigaku's Kikumaru, right?"

"Unn! Since when you were here?"

"From fifteen minutes ago or so."

"Eeeee? Really? I didn't notice it! Sorry!"

"It's ok! It's nothing to do with me you noticed me or not. I never want to be noticed by you (why'd the hell I said shit like this?)"

"C'mon, don't think like that, since just both of us are here, why don't we chatting, or something like that?"

Gakuto's face blushed. "It's…. it's ok for me then. What is it about?"

"Eto… let's see… since it's my first time to chatting like this with you, I don't know either what is it about…. Can't you find the topic?"

"Wha…what?? Why I must looking for something like that?!"

"Nya… you're not fun, Mukahi."

They kept in silent for a few minutes.

"Nee, Mukahi?"' Eiji opened his mouth.

"What?"

"Do you like someone?"

Gakuto felt his chest being hot.

"What?"

"I said do you like someone?"

"Why.. Why do you ask something like that??"

"I do like someone."

Thump. Gakuto's chest felt a little hurt.

"That person is my best friend…. It was my fault to fell to that person. But, that person…"

"Refused you?"

"No! Yes, something like that… but that person never refuses me directly. Yet that person never knows. I just… I just too stupid to fall in love."

"That person….. is your double partner, right?"

"Eh? How do you know?"

"I dunno. It's just my own thought."

"It must be annoys you to know I'm gay, right?"

"Eh? No, I'm not!" Gakuto stood suddenly, surprised Eiji.

"You don't need to stand like that…"

"Ee…to… I'm sorry!!!"

Gakuto sat again next to Eiji.

"I think it's weird," said Eiji.

"What?"

"It's weird for a guy to love another guy…. But it can't be helped. I love him…. But…. I dunno what must I do while I know he doesn't love me…. It's feel so hurt for me."

Gakuto kept in silent.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was so big-mouth, right? Ahaha, I don't know why, but it felt a little better while told someone about your problem so I can't stop speaking…. I'm sorry."

"It's ok. Just speak. You can speak everything to me, I don't care how long it is."

Eiji paused.

"You're a nice person, nee, Mukahi. You will listen to my selfishness… "

Oh, yes, it's just if I were with you. I'll never do it with someone else.

"You just like him, Mukahi."

"If I'm falling in love with you… what would happened, then?"

Gakuto's face flushed.

"May be it'll be nice, eh?"

Gakuto's face become flushed more, almost similar with his own hair.

"Ahaha, you don't need to blush like that, I won't. I just a little teased you. You're an interesting person, Mukahi. Don't scare, c'mon. I wouldn't fall to you, it's just a joke…"

Gakuto stood up suddenly (again).

"Why you wouldn't?"

"Huh?"

"Why you wouldn't fall to me?? It's better if you fall to me!!!"

"Huh? Mukahi, what do you me---"

Gakuto didn't care about everything anymore. Here he was, standing beneath a halte bus in a rainy day, kissed his old rival in tennis.

Yes, he was kissed Kikumaru Eiji.

Eiji blinked in shock. It took long time for him to notice what happened.

It was a long kiss. Ten seconds… thirty seconds… one minutes…. Two minutes… after three minutes, Gakuto broke their kiss.

"Mukahi, what did you….." Eiji couldn't continue his words, he was too shock. Gakuto surprised with his own action too. He didn't know what to do. "Eh…. I… I just…."

And he turned his body, and then ran through the rain, left Eiji alone.
