Ryoga Kamishiro locked the door to the household before taking a step into a large puddle. It was early morning, and the air was scented with the heavenly fragrance of dew. All night, it had rained in Heartland, Ryoga was surprised that the rainstorm had let up. Thunder had boomed all night while lightning was a spotlight against the dark curtain of clouds.
Ryoga had a thick sweater and a red scarf wrapped around him. It was early springtime, but the weather was ruthless and refused to show any sigh of warmth. Ryoga rubbed his hands in an attempt to keep them warm, and he swore that he seen a puff of a white cloud when he exhaled through his mouth.
The boy didn't realize how far he had walked until he seen a familiar figure soaring across the sky.
"Oh great," Ryoga mumbled under his breath and pulled his hood up. At any rate, the gray sea in the air would be gone soon being he could see a patch of blue on the horizon.
Ryoga crossed his arms, as he heard the usual footsteps of Kaito Tenjo, and the 'Kaito-sama' coming from Orbital 7.
"What are you doing here?" Ryoga inquired. Kaito narrowed his eyes.
"I could ask you the same question."
"Kaito-sama, please don't wear yourself out, you need re-"
"That will be enough Orbital," Kaito spoke hurriedly and told the robot to go attend to Haruto. Orbital saluted and rushed off muttering something about 'Haruto-sama'.
"So, what does bring you here?" Kaito asked Ryoga, genuinely curious. When did Kaito start taking an interest in him?
Ryoga sighed but gave, "Couldn't sleep and decided to take a walk."
"Ah..."
An awkward silence settled between the two and Ryoga was taking an interest in his shoes while Kaito gazed at the clouds.
"Did you see the triple rainbow?" Kaito questioned, looking at Ryoga. Ryoga shook his head. Triple rainbows were rare, and it was a treat to see one.
"No. Did you?" Kaito nodded and pointed at the sky. Ryoga followed his finger, but he... didn't see anything?
"I don't see a rainbow." Ryoga stated crossing his arms once again. Kaito sighed but grabbed Ryoga's hand. "Wha-what do you think you're doing?" Ryoga nearly screeched at the sudden contact with the other. Kaito didn't answer instead he shaped Ryoga's hand to where it was pointing and directed it to the rainbow and stood behind him.
Ryoga followed the direction of his finger and gasped. He wasn't one to be amazed by childish things like rainbows, but this wasn't just a rainbow it was THREE RAINBOWS. The rainbows stood brightly against the dim background. It was breathtaking.
Kaito and Ryoga stood there for a good few minutes admiring the painting in the sky. Ryoga was done being mesmerized, and he glanced around him quickly. No one was around. Good, Ryoga thought, no one here to see me hold hands with this asshole. Ryoga was about to pull his hand away from Kaito's but decided against it for Kaito's hand held the warmth that Ryoga's lost.
"You sure seem to like this position, asshole," Ryoga said arrogantly with a smirk.
"You aren't complaining."
