BEEP- BEEP- BEEP-

Masaomi kept hitting his alarm clock until it shut up. He knew it was Valentines Day, so he got up and dressed in his Raira uniform, brushed his teeth, combed his hair, and grabbed his gift for Mikado. He was excited, yet nervous at the same time; he had never felt like this about someone before. Mikado was unlike all the other girls. He was different. A good kind of different.

As he walked outside, he already seen couples exchange their gifts to each other. He could see the wonderful reaction they got and wondered if he would get the same from Mikado.

As he got to school, he couldn't spot Mikado anywhere. Masaomi wasn't actually upset though, he was so nervous he was starting to sweat. But then, in the corner of his eye, he seen Mikado with something in his hand walking towards him. He panicked and started power-walking away from him.

"Masaomi, wait!" Mikado yelled out to him.

Masaomi ignored his friend, put away his gift, and went to class without saying a word. He was a little uneasy the whole time he spent in class. His teacher looked at him weird. "Do you need to go to the nurse?" She asked him. "You've been acting sorta... jumpy."

Without saying anything, he jumped out of his seat and ran to the bathroom. He splashed cold water on his face. He thought he was good at this kind of stuff, well, with the girls at least. But Mikado's gift would be given to him before Valentines Day passes. No matter what! It only comes once a year, and he was not gonna wait another 365 days just to re-try.


It was the end of the day. Masaomi achieved the goal of avoiding Mikado for the whole day. Wait... this was NOT a good thing! There's not much time left. He grabbed his gift and headed out the doors. It was pouring! He searched for Mikado everywhere. He hid his gift safely from the rain in his hoodie and began to run hugging himself making sure it doesn't fall out. He stopped. "It's not worth it." He told himself, "I've wasted to much time on this. He's gone." Before he could say anything else, he felt someone poking on his shoulder. He turned back and saw Mikado with a worried look on his face.

"Masaomi, what's been with you today? It seems like you've been avoiding me." Mikado pointed out. "...I got you this." He held out a card. Masaomi took it with one hand still holding his present in his hoodie and smiled. It was still pouring but he didn't mind.

"Um, what are you doing?" Mikado asked him, trying to figure out what would be in his hoodie. Masaomi was still holding his stomach.

"Well," He put the card in his pocket and took the letter and candies out. "I wanted to give you this." How embarrassing. Were the candies really necessary? I mean, all he got from Mikado was a small crappy home-made card. He seen Mikado blush. Masaomi wasn't exactly sure what to do so he just stood there without saying any words. Mikado took the gift from Masaomi's hand and smiled.

It was silent. He looked up from the feel of Mikado's hand on his shoulder. "Why are you acting like this, Masaomi?" Masaomi looked at him in confusion. "You've been running from me all day and well... I wanted to tell you something."

They were rudely interrupted by a loud crash of thunder. Why were they still in the rain anyway? Mikado didn't finish his sentence. "I don't think it's safe out here" Mikado tried to yell over another explosion of thunder. "I think we should start heading home."

Why didn't he just rip out Masaomi's heart and kick it in the dirt? Because that would've been less painful. "U-um, I think that's a good idea..." Masaomi said as his voice started cracking. He turned around and started walking away.

"Bye, Masaomi."

"Bye, Mikado..." Masaomi said without looking back. He could hear Mikado start to run. He didn't like the rain.

Today really couldn't get any worse. Sure, the gift was now safely in Mikado's hands but that moment didn't last as long as Masaomi wanted it too. He wanted it to last forever. He loved Mikado, and he want him to know how he really feels. "What a shitty day." Masaomi said to himself as he kicked a empty soda can out of his way. He was looking down at his feet at he walked with his hands in his pockets. He sighed.


As he got home, he sat down in front of the T.V and took out the card Mikado had made for him. Staring at it, he was scared, yet curious, what it said on the inside; if it even said anything.

Finally, he opened it. It read:

"Thanks for always being there for me, Masaomi. You're a good friend and Happy Valentines Day. -Mikado"

...Friend? This feeling was what no other could imagine. He dropped the card to the floor. All this work... just to be a friend?


Well, was it worth the wait? I am so sorry xD Chapter 3 will hopefully be posted earlier like I said. Don't forget to review I love to see what you guys think! :D
