"Ahhh…Raining…I hate rain…"
One teenage boy whose face was looked like a cat was standing in basketball club house and saw the rain out side with a bit bored. Koganei Sinji had just finished his afternoon basket ball practice with his teamates. After the shower and changed his clothes, everybody in club had left( or just he thought so), now there were he and #2. Kuroko had asked him take care #2 for him, just today (because of his date with Kagami).
Raining, so it was wet, it was cold, the Devil Coach usually doubled their training on raining days( with the reason: "You have to heat your body more and more in the days like that"). Too awful. And plus, he forgot his umbrella at home today, again. He had to wait it stopped raining if he didn't want wet.
Sighed.
Although he said so, but Koganei didn't hate rain so much at all. He could lazily
watched the rainwater fell down, raining sound made him ramdomly remembered some rhythms, and then he sang softly. Koganei was a type person who maybe complain about something, but next minute he could made that thing better, blurred its defects. He was very optimistic, the smile always on his face.
After 15 minutes, it was still raining, Koganei decied to go home under the rain, he put #2 in his bag to keep him not to wet. When he was about got outside, he felt someone take one umbrella upon him, and immediately he knew, Mitobe.
"Mitobe, why you was still here? I thought you had left."
His best friend was still silent like everyday, he smiled softly.
/I have some worked have to do after the practice, and I think you forget your umbrella, so I wait for you/
"Thank you so much, Mitobe, thank you…"
Koganei now sound like a little boy, funny and active. He hugged Mitobe and placed his face in the taller boy's chest.
/Okay, let go home, Koganei./
"Let go~", one cat-like smile.
"Wfff".
-Koganei x Mitobe-
Koganei and Mitobe walked together under the rain with Mitobe's umbrella. Koganei non-stop played with one by one single rainwater and laughed. That made the boy next to him smiled more with his cuteness.
Mitobe didn't know, one reason made Koganei didn't hate rain, was him, Koganei could be with him more.
Koganei glanced at Mitobe, and quickly turned away to hide his flush face
You know, cat liked some place warm and soft, like sunny days, one quilt,… to sleep and play.
With Koganei, embarrasing, but Koganei admitted that, the most place he want to be in was…Mitobe's chest.
Yea…Mitobe's chest…
It was so warm…so secure…so peaceful…
Blushed.
Koganei thought that his life was very lucky. He was a high school boy. Girls adored him because they thought he was cute, and he didn't mind. He had a happy family, he joined basketball club, played basketball, had more friends: Tappei, Captain, Coach,…beside his best friend, Mitobe Rinnosuke.
Mitobe was taller than him, a silent one, good looking (handsome,Koga-chan thought so), very kind, helpful, a good person.
Koganei liked Mitobe a lot. He liked the ways Mitobe cared about everyone else, his carefulness and intelligent both studying or playing basketball, his silence when he wanted to say something, and his lightly smiled when he was happy.
Mitobe always by his side, anytime, anywhere, care about him, encoureged him, helped him,shared with him tye happiness and sorrow.
Mitobe was the one knew him well, understood his thought.
When Koganei was upset, he always felt one pair of arms wrapped aroud him with one silent worried heat. And he could turned around and cried in Mitobe's chest, the warmest place with him. He let his weakness showed in front of Mitobe, and let himself sinked Mitobe's dotted silence.
Mitobe with him like a gift Kami-sama gave to him.
He liked Mitobe, a lot, but now it was just a friend to friend, but truly, he was not sure about that.
Mitobe reconized that Koganei had stopped playing.
/Are you alright, Koganei? Is there something wrong?/
Startled.
Confused.
"No…no…I'am fine, don't worry Mitobe"
Mitobe put his forehead to Koganei's
Blushed.
His face was too hot.
Too close.
/Not fever, okay. Take care more to yourself, Koganei/
"Thank you, Mitobe, you are so kind".
One soft silent smile.
One cat-like smile.
And they continued walking to Mitobe's home.
…
Koganei put his hand to his heart. He didn't know why his heart beating faster.
