The blue haired man looked at the building that they called Hyotei school, and smirked. The dark blazer with his own school print on fluttered open as the breeze suddenly became wind, the blue haired young man turned on his heel and walked away, for now.
They were sitting in their auditorium, the Hyotei players Mukahi, Shishido, Oshitari, Atobe and Jirou were all in the same row of benches. Watching them were the second years Choutarou, Hiyoshi and Kabaji, there was a sense of sadness hanging over them, as well as the evident happiness of seeing their friends reaching their goal. Oishi Suichiro and his friend Kikumaru Eiji were there too, they had been watching it all, from the moment they had called for Akutagawa Jirou they had been cheering and smiling. Most of the Hyotei students had cheered a little extra for all of the tennis team's regulars. First to get their diploma of all regulars were in fact Jirou and for the first time in a long time he was not sleeping when his name was called. Quickly he was on his feet and went to get the paper, closely followed by Atobe Keigo. Yuushi was smiling, not the tensai kind of smile but one that was gentle and sincere. Mukahi was bawling, the tears would not stop any time soon and he just let them fall, occationally using a tissue to dry his cheeks. Shishido was staring at his boyfriend whom by now was crying too, leaning on Kabaji for support. He didn't want to let Shishido go, this made it all seem so final. His Ryou was leaving it was nothing that he could do to get it back, it would be a whole year until he could be able to see him every day. Oishi felt bad for the boy and put his hand on Choutarou's shoulder, showing him a smile of knowledge and a silet offer to talk if he needed to. The ceremony was beautiful and filled with as well happiness and joy as tears and sadness. But to Jirou there was nothing else than happiness in his heart, Oishi and he had been accepted to the same school, Yuushi and Keigo would be there too. That made Jirou's heart flutter with joy, he would never be alone again, he had three of his closest friends there with him and Eiji could possibly be going there too. But that all depended on the new girlfriend of his (one that both Jirou and Oishi knew, but had no idea of who it was), the acrobat had gotten accepted in to two schools and now had to make a choice of where he'd like to go. And obviously his girlfriend would have some kind of say in it. Though Jirou secretly hoped, with all his heart, that Eiji would take the offer of going to school with him and Oishi.
The ceremony ended as fast as it started and they were all taking pictures together and hugging each other closely. Oishi walked up to Keigo, Jirou and Yuushi that were posing for a picture, he was followed by Eiji.
"Saa… Oishi… why don't we get a picture of you with Jirou?" Yuushi said and got the camera back from one of the teachers that had taken the previous picture of the three of them.
"Un. If he wants to…" Oishi said and blushed, Eiji smiled and gave his friend a gentle shove towards the strawberry blonde.
"Of course I want!" Jirou exclaimed and threw his arm around Oishi and made a victory sign with his other hand.
"Why doesn't the acrobat join them? Aaan." Atobe said after the picture was taken and looked at the red haired man.
"I…" Eiji had no more time to say anything before Jirou interrupted him:
"Yeah! Come here Eiji!"
And once more he was surrounded by people close to him, usually Jirou wasn't much for bodily contact as it was at the moment but right at this moment the strawberry blonde was very comfortable in-between his boyfriend and his friend Eiji. All of the graduates were smiling and hugging. Well not all of them, Jirou noticed Shishido and Oothori standing just in front of each other and tears were falling from the younger man's eyes. He looked heartbroken. Shishido was mumbling something about that they were going to see each other, just not as often as they were used to after spending two years together in school. Choutarou had remembered how hard it was last time when Shishido had graduated from Hyotei Gakuen and he was left alone with Hiyoshi and Kabaji, it wasn't that he didn't like them, not at all. It was just the fact that they were not Shishido. He felt lonely.
"I feel so bad for Chouta." Jirou said and leaned in closer to Oishi.
"Mhm." Oishi nodded and so did Eiji.
"The boy will get over it." Atobe said and Yuushi elbowed him, not very descretely and grunted:
"Keigo. Oothori is heartbroken, don't say anything stupid right now."
"Yuushi…" Keigo whined in a manner that he would not purposely do, leaving Jirou laughing and the golden pair smiling widely.

Summer break was over as fast as it started and Jirou was pretty nervous about starting a new school, he was hoping that his room mate would be someone that he liked, hopefully he would be rooming with someone that he knew. Though he didn't really know much people, he had many acquaintances but not many friends. It was limited to the Hyotei players plus Eiji and Oishi, oh and Fuji, no one was as good opponent in tennis as Fuji Shuusuke. Oishi Suichiro and Jirou, they had spent most of the summer working and then being able to play some tennis together and doing other fun things. But the best part of it all was when you could just spend the day together, not doing anything in particular and to be able to enjoy each others company. There were many nights when Oishi's parents had fought over things that the black haired young man had brought his sister over to the Akutagawa household just to get them both out of their parents' way. And probably stayed the night most of those times, Jirou didn't mind at all. He found Suichiro's younger sister very sweet and likeable. Though Oishi always felt like he was forcing Jirou in to a position where he had to say yes to him, but when Akutagawa Keiko (Jirou's younger sister, the same age as Oishi's) found a very reliable friend in Oishi Midori the older brothers could both relax. As long as they were compatiable, the girls would not mind. Jirou had already told his parents about his relationship with the calmer half of the Golden Pair. At first his father minded, he didn't want his son to be 'one of them' but after getting a few growls from his wife, the old man calmed down a few notches. Suichiro on the other hand didn't dare to tell his parents, though after being in the house for just a few hours Midori had walked in on them kissing he had no choice but to tell her about his relationship with the strawberry blonde. Jirou had just laughed and ruffled Oishi's perfect hair, then told his sister and his own sister that he was very much in love with the black haired man and was not going to let him go in the very near future. The sisters had both squealed and jumped their brothers smothering them with hugs. Who could have imagined that scene at the Akutagawas that night? But as long as Midori and Keiko didn't mind both men were relived. This was probably one of the last nights they would be spending together at the Akutagawas house before going of to study. Jirou had made some research, with the help of Inui Sadaharu, a friend of Oishi's to make sure that Yukimura Seichii would not attend the same school as him and the others. Surely enough 'the son of god' would not be at their school. Jirou was going for a law degree, Oishi wanted a masters degree in business and well Keigo needed one to. Yuushi on the other hand was joining the sleeping beauty on the law side, the blue haired man wanted to be a judge someday. Jirou just wanted a job that he liked and would be comfortable doing, what it was didn't matter to him, just that he liked it and that his co workers would like him. They would be able to go to the school in a day and have a look around before moving in, also to see who they would be rooming with. That was probably Jirou's biggest fear with all of this, that he would have an evil room mate or that he would have to share a room with someone that he didn't feel comfortable around. But on the good side there was a tennis team in the school, the strawberry blonde snickered and thought about Keigo, Yuushi, Eiji, Oishi and himself walking up to the courts and having a good time. It would feel so good, to play tennis on that level once again. But right now he had to focus on the room mate.Who would he be living with?
