Gumo! Not a lot of him...
Disclaimer: I don't own any of it... You should already know that. Haha.
. . .
His eyebrow twitched. He had just told Gumi that he liked her, but she didn't get it. He played the scene over in his head.
He was sitting on the bench, watching the autumn colored leaves fall and the gentle breeze push them somewhere else. The breeze was blowing harder and he decided to put his hands into his pocket. He was wearing a jacket over his hoodie and his goggles were on his head like usual.
He was about to pick himself up from the bench to leave when he heard a familiar voice. "Gumiya!" He turned his head to the person coming his way. It was Gumi. She had her usual smile and was waving at him. She wore long socks with her skirt, a jacket that looked similar to his, a headband, and a scarf that she had borrowed from him. "What are you doing here?"
"How long have we known about each other, Gumi?" he questioned, almost annoyed. "I already told you can call me Gumo a long time ago."
She giggled and scratched the back of her head. "Oh yeah. I kinda forgot." she looked so innocent, a trait that he like from her. Most of her traits he liked. "So what were you doing?"
"Nothing much, really. What about you?"
"Well I just came back from the bookstore and I bought this book," she held the book up for him to see. By that time, she was already sitting beside him. "It's about this girl who has feelings for a boy and he doesn't know about them yet. I'm still reading it though, so I can't tell you anything else… I wish someone would tell me that they have true feelings for me, when they do of course," she ended her statement with a smile.
He smirked. "Well, if you weren't so loud..." She turned towards him wide-eyed.
"Wha-Hey! I'm not loud!" she retorted.
"Yes you are. See?"
She began stuttering with her words, trying to find something to say back at him. Once she realized she was fresh out of words, she looked forward at the trees like how he was doing earlier and let out a huff. He glanced at her and noticed that she had a faraway look in her eyes.
A few moments passed before she spoke up again. "It'll be nice to have someone like me, even if I didn't know at the moment, I still think it would be nice. Maybe somewhere else in the world, someone would love me. But I would want that person to tell me…" she gave a little sigh at the end.
He cleared his throat. "… H-hey…"
She turned to him. "Hm?" Gumi didn't notice the crimson color washed over his face.
He kept his eyes staring away from her. Then he began to talk in a whisper. "…Y-you don't need to go around the world to find someone who l-likes you. I-If you want to find a person, t-then you just have to l-look right here…"
"Gumiya…" he didn't have to wait long for her reaction because he heard giggling."Aw, that's so sweet, Gumo! You're probably right. Maybe at school someone likes me! Yeah, I'll just have to look there. You're so nice… Hey. Can you give me a ride home on your bike?"
He couldn't believe it. "No!"
"Why not? You're going home, aren't you? I live next door! Please, don't make me walk home by myself!" She was begging and he couldn't help but give in.
"…Ugh, fine."
"Yay! You're the best!"
"Sure…" he sarcastically said as he rolled his eyes.
"Thank you Gumo! See you tomorrow at school!" She ran to her house.
She'll understand… one day… he thought.
As he was propping his bike onto the garage door, he noticed something in the basket. "What's this?" Gumo picked up the book. "Gumi forgot her book…" He was about to walk to her house to give it back, but he looked at the title. "One Day. Hm…" Instead of going to her house and returning it, he went on inside his house.
"Back so soon? Oh, what's that?"
"Hi Gakupo. And this? This is, uh, a book that I'm borrowing. I'm going to my room now. Call me when dinner is ready." He went up the stairs to his room and locked the door behind him, not wanting any interruptions. He was in the sanctuary of his room.
He sat down on his bed. "Why was she getting so excited over this book?" He flipped through it, skimmed over a few pages, and turned it to look at the cover. He then ultimately began reading it.
A/N: I noticed that this pairing didn't have enough love… Are you serious? They're one of my favorites, so that's why I decided to make this multi-chapter story.
How do you like it so far? Do you like them too? Any ideas of what you want to see? Tell me what you think of it. Let me know! Please review! Thanks for reading.
