thank you for the first review, it made me really happy.
Chapter 3 - Party
"Endou-san." Tenma called out as he entered the café. Endou walked out from the back when he heard the brunette calling his name.
"What are you doing here?" Endou asked. He was sure the brunette was going to that party.
"I think I lost the ticket that Masaki gave me." Tenma was in such a panic. Just when Masaki told me not to lose it."
"Is Tenma here?" Both the brunette turned their heads and saw a familiar face.
"Kazemaru-san, why are you here?" Tenma asked. Kazemaru then took out a ticket from his pocket and held it up in the air.
"While you rushed out you dropped this." Tenma couldn't believe this, he was so glad that Kazemaru saw the ticket, if he didn't he would be so dead.
"Thank you." Tenma rushed toward Kazemaru with a bright smile.
"You're wearing that to the party." Kazemaru said in disprovable. It was the same thing he wore for school.
"It's a party and this is like a suit anyway." Tenma looked over his own clothes, he thought he looked pretty good.
"You should hurry since you're already running late to meet Kairya and others." Endou said. Tenma then took the ticket from Kazemaru and bowed his head and waved bye to the two and ran out the café.
"That's not the only reason you came here for, is it?" Endou asked.
"You know me so well." Kazamaru smiled. I came to talk about Hiroto." Endou knew Hiroto was going to come in the conversion. You were lying when you said things with you two were fine."
"How did you find out?" Endou asked.
"Who do you think I heard it from?" Endou knew he couldn't hide it but he didn't think he would be found out this soon.
"Tenma's a good kid and is only looking out for you." Kazemaru said. You used to be just like him."
Tenma was running in the speed of light. He was supposed to meet his friends at the train station since none of them drove. Tenma had a licence but he didn't have a car, same with the others.
"Sorry, I'm late." Tenma said catching his breath to speak when he saw the three standing there. He hadn't seen the other two for a while since they were in different classes but he saw Masaki since they were in same class.
"It's good to see you." Shindou said.
"Try to get more free time." Kirino smiled.
"You're late!" Masaki said in an angry tone. Masaki knew that the bluenette was going to mad at him but he tried to act cool.
"Can't you be nice like them?" Tenma pointed to Shindou and Kirino.
"Let's hurry now." Shindou said. We are already late." The train arrived and they got inside. They sat on the place that had four seats, two facing each other. Shindou and Tenma sat in one and Masaki and Kirino sat on the other.
"You're wearing the same thing as you did as in school." Masaki commented on.
"But, it looks okay since it looks formal." Kirino said.
"Thank you." Tenma said looking proud."
"Yea, if only he rolled the bottom of his pant down." Masaki said. Tenma knew the moment that Tenma was late he was going to start acting cold. He had to try to calm down his friend.
The brunette took out his mobile and then showed it to the bluenette. Masaki's face lit up from happiness. He couldn't take his eyes off of the mobile's screen. Tenma allowed Masaki to take his phone in his hand.
"You did it again." Shindou whispered in Tenma's ear. Kirino on the other hand could see the screen and what the bluenette was staring at. It was a picture of a girl with long brunette hair that was wearing a short white party gown and she was holding a boutique of flowers.
"Who's that?" Kirino asked. He realizes that Kairya wasn't going to give him an answer since he was too observe on the screen.
"It's hard to explain." The brunette said. The truth was only a couple of people knew who the girl in the picture was. Tenma didn't want to tell anybody since it was so embarrassing; he didn't have a choice that day.
Suddenly the train stopped which Tenma was glad since he didn't have to answer Kirino, Shindou was quiet since he knew that Tenma didn't want anybody to know. The four got off and Kairya gave his phone back to Tenma. They headed to the large grand hotel. The four showed their ticket and entered the building. There was so many people inside, a lot of them looked rich, Tenma didn't like rich people.
"Did you lose your ticket?" Shindou whispered in Tenma's ear. The brunette stopped walking and looked back at Shindou.
"How did you know?" Tenma whispered back.
"The ticket looks wrinkle." Shindou said. If Kairya knew about this."
"Don't tell him, I don't want to deal with calming him down again."
"Anyway, I'm going to get some food." Shindou said.
"I'm hungry too." Kirino replied. It was the usual route for them, now Kairya would be the next to speak up.
"I'm going too." Masaki said. Masaki then stared at the brunette.
"I'll come in a bit." Tenma said. I need to go to the rest room."
Tenma was left alone and he wondered around the hotel. It was his second time here, the last time he was here was when he first came to Japan and met Hiroto and Endou and they took him here without any say in for him. Tenma walked and walked, he was looking for the rest room.
"Tenma-kun." The brunette turned around when he heard his name being called out. A red-head was standing there with a smile on his face.
"Hiroto-san." Tenma said surprised. He had heard that Hiroto wasn't going to be attending the party but here he is. Hiroto is the only adult that he calls by his first time. What are you doing here; Masaki said you weren't going to be here?"
"I wasn't going to attend but suddenly I got free." Hiroto then started walking toward the brunette and ruffled the boy's hair into a mess. Tenma was annoyed, whenever that Hiroto saw him he messed his hair up.
"I like your annoyed look." Hiroto joked.
"Hiroto, there you are?" Ryuuji said annoyed. Hiroto had suddenly disappeared. Midorikawa then saw that Hiroto was with Tenma.
"Tenma-kun, what are you doing here?" Midori hadn't seen the young boy for a long time.
"Nice to see you, Midorikawa-san." Tenma smiled.
"I heard that you were busy these days." Ryuuji said walking toward the red-head and brunette.
"I was busy but I manage to off today." Tenma smiled. Ryuuji then turned to Hiroto with an angry look on his face. Were you running away again?"
"Again?" Tenma thought.
"What are you talking about?" Hiroto was trying to dodge the question. I wanted to see Tenma-kun." He turned to Tenma and smiled.
"I can see that." Ryuuji said.
"Tenma-kun, can you do a favor for us." Hiroto said. We will pay you if you do this favor for us."
"Hiroto, you're not asking him to..
"I am." Hiroto said with a serious expression on his face. Tenma didn't know what was going on but he owed Hiroto a lot so of course he would do anything to help Hiroto.
"What do I have to do?" Ryuuji was still surprised by Tenma even those he knew he would never say no.
"Thank you." Hiroto smiled.
"How did I end up being inside a vent?" Tenma asked himself. Hiroto had told him to go inside a vent and spy on a some people he knew where they were. Tenma stopped half way and heard two people talking.
"You're highness be reasonable."
"He's a prince." Tenma thought.
"I'm not changing my mind and I told you to call me Yukimura."
Tenma could see from the vent that the person called Yukimura was a young boy, probably around his age; he had spiky navy blue hair, with two strands hanging from each side of his face, thick eyebrows and teal eyes.
"Have a met him somewhere before?" Tenma thought. He looked like somebody but he couldn't think of who he was.
"You're looking for that girl, we don't even know if she's still in Japan."
"I don't care." Yukimura replied back.
"Are they talking about a girl?" Tenma thought.
"That girl is the only one I will accept to be my wife." Yukimura was getting fed up with this conversion with his brother.
"You're can't just marry a commoner, it has be a royal heir or else our kingdom will be in ruins."
After a while it seems like the younger boy won and the older man walked away and leaving the younger boy alone.
"This is so troublesome." Yukimura mumbled. Tenma was still in the vent when he accidently hit the vent open without him knowing, he's arm was so tired that when he stretched it crashed on and made a hole. The noise made Yukimura look up and down came falling Tenma. The brunette fell on top of the bluenette. The brunette manages to get off before causing any pain to the prince.
Tenma helped the prince up, this time he could see the boy clearly since they were so close to each other. Tenma noticed a small cut on the prince's right cheek.
"Sorry." Tenma apologized. He then took out his wallet. Yukimura watched as Tenma took out something from his wallet. Tenma then ripped the bandage and placed it on the prince's cut. Suddenly Tenma's phones started vibrate. There was message send by Masaki.
Where are you?
"I have to go." Tenma said as he rushed out but was stopped when Yukimura called out.
"What's your name?"
"Why do you want to know my name?" Tenma asked as he turned around to stare at the prince.
"You seem familiar." Yukimura said. Tenma was thinking the same thing.
"I'll tell you since I don't think we will bump into each other again." Tenma said. I am Matsukaze Tenma."
Tenma then rushed out of there and headed to where his friends were. They were seated on a table.
"Where were you?" Masaki asked.
"I was looking around." Tenma replied.
"Hiroto-nii said he wants to see you."
"He probably wants to know about the conversion." Tenma thought. It wasn't anything interesting."
"Did you eat yet?" Kirino asked.
"I completely forgot when I was looking around." Tenma said.
"That's just like you." Shindou said.
"Tenma, Tsurugi told me to tell you to visit him and Hakuryuu." Kirino said.
"There no way I want to visit, Hakuryuu!"Tenma yelled inside his mind. Whenever he didn't see them a lot Hakuryuu will give him such a long talk, not to mention a lot of pain.
"I'll take that silence as in you're not going to go are you."
"Are you kidding me?" Tenma couldn't believe that Kirino was even asking him that. There was no way he was suddenly going to show up when he kept on telling them that he was busy. Tsurugi was alright but Hakuryuu was a different story. If only Tsurugi and Hakuryuu weren't living together as roommates.
"You have to visit them once awhile." Shindou said. Hakuryuu was your first friend you made when you came to Japan. Also he said you begged him to be your friend.
"It's more like he forced me too." He mumbled.
Tenma could still remember the first day he arrived in Japan. He had gotten a job right away and he headed to the school was going to attend. He didn't want to interact with anybody but Hakuryuu showed up acting like he ruled the school.
"I haven't seen you face before." Hakuryuu said staring up and down from Tenma. Tenma felt uncomfortable with the stares.
Tenma tried to walk away but the white-haired boy didn't leave him alone. Tenma didn't speak much back then but even so Hakuryuu didn't mind since he was doing all the speaking.
"I like you." Hakuryuu announced to the brunette. I never met anybody like you."
"I hate you." Tenma thought.
When Tenma started school Hakuryuu would always appear in his class even when they had different classes. Hakuryuu never left Tenma's side. It was heard that Tenma and Hakuryuu were best friends; Tenma ignored it and carried on his day like normal. Time went on and Tenma got used to Hakuryuu and he even showed the brunette where he lived, not like he cared. Tenma then heard that Hakuryuu was changing school so the brunette thought he was moving away but the brunette was wrong. Hakuryuu changed to the school across from his.
"I told my parents that I didn't want to move far from here." Hakuryuu said. I have somebody I need to take care of." Hakuryuu ment Tenma since he was staring at him.
"I'm not a kid." Tenma said.
"Sure you since you are younger and shorter than me." Hakuryuu smirked.
"Tenma, what are you think about?" Kirino asked.
"I'm thinking about a nightmare I once had." Tenma replied.
