Shun looked at the bath he was running. It was supposed to be at least lukewarm by now. Shun took off the towel that clung loosely at his waist and then placed it aside neatly. He dipped one pale foot into the bath and Shun smiled in delight.
He let himself get in the warm water completly and let out a sigh, it was nice to relax like this. After a long school day, he finally felt calm. It was really tiring nowadays, with the group almost graduating soon. And it didn't help Chizuru was energetic as ever.
Shun let out one of his chuckles and let himself relax in the bathtub. The water soothed him and he closed his eyes slowly and stretched so his feet would be on the end of the bathtub. Shun grabbed the cup that he besides him and scooped water into it, then he slowly poured it onto his seemingly pink hair.
Shun opened his eyes and coughed, he got some water in his nose. Shun then let his mind wander off, thinking about the colleges he could attend to. But he began thinking about Yuuta, the older Asaba twin.
Shun always admired him but lately he began feeling really nervous around him and could barely talk to him without stuttering (but this was a different kind of stuttering from the one that he normally did). A blush crept onto his cheeks realizing that he was thinking about Yuuta.
He also had butterflies in his stomach whenever Yuuta was around him. This wasn't normal, this feeling has just began to start a few months ago.
'Is it love...? Is this how it feels like?' Shun asked himself and bit his lip, a darker blush took over his cheeks and he shook his head. 'No it can't be! It's wrong and Yuuta-kun won't even like me anyways... He probably sees me as a younger brother.' he refused to think that he loved Yuuta.
'But Yuuta-kun is always so nice and caring...' he let his mind wander off again because shaking off the thoughts again.
"I think I should go to sleep already." Shun said and got out of the bath. He let the water escape through the drain and as he dried himself with the towel, the blush was still visible on his cheeks.
Shun changed into a shirt that fit him big and some sweatpants. His hair was still wet but it would dry off later, Shun walked to his room with a small towel on his head and sat down on his bed.
Shun dried his hair with the towel one last time but something blinking spotted his eyes. The light on his phone (that meant someone messaged or called) and Shun checked. "1 missed call from Yuuta" it read.
Shun's heart raced and the blush started to come back. But he couldn't help himself smile. Shun hesitated but decided to call Yuuta to say sorry. As the phone ringed, Shun began thinking if he was really in love or not.
'Maybe I-..."
"Yes?" Yuuta's voice came from the other line. Shun's eyes widened and began thinking on what to say, "O-Oh, Yuuta-kun! I s-saw you c-called me... Sorry, I was taking a b-bath.!" Shun apologized stuttering more than usual.
"Ah, no worries. You were acting strange today so I just wanted to check up on you." Yuuta said with the same tone he always used. Shun's breath hitched but answered anyways, "O-Oh, y-yeah. I'm fine Yuuta-kun, sorry f-for worrying y-you." He said.
Yuuta did a small noise that sounded like "mmm" but spoke "Okay. Well, good night Shun." He said and yawned afterwards. Shun giggled, he was so cute. 'W-Wait... I just...' he soon embarrassed himself but managed to speak, "H-Have a good sleep Yuuta-kun. See you tomorrow." He said and Yuuta hanged up with a "you too".
Shun let out a sigh of relief and placed his hand on his chest above where his heart was located. "I hope I'll figure out these feelings soon..." he said as he looked out the window into the night sky and the moon shining.
It was not long that he fell asleep but his dreams were just imaged of Yuuta.
It was the start of a beautiful love.
