Kai and Aichi were walking through the streets happily, both teens ignoring the curious or even disgusted looks that crossed the faces of the people they passed, for their fingers were closely intertwined.
The brunette felt ecstatic, not because they were walking together, though that did add some influence towards his mood. The younger boy with blue hair whom his fingers were interlocked with was the reason for his light mood, the boy actually seemed a little nervous but he could easily tell from the shining of the boy's sapphires that he was also enjoying himself.
"You okay Aichi?"
The brunette asked gently as he noticed that a particularly terrible look was given towards the younger. A small smile graced the smaller boy's lips as he nodded.
"Yeah, I'm just not used to so many people staring at me..."
A small blush emerged and the brunette couldn't help but smile for the younger was at least admitting the slight unease that he was feeling.
"You don't have to worry, if anyone so much as tries to harm you-"
"Kai you shouldn't think about hurting people..."
The blue haired boy sighed before smiling slightly at the older teen's intentions.
"I'm sorry..."
"It's okay... And thanks, that really means a lot to me"
Jades lit up at the smaller boy's light laugh, it sounded so nice to his ears.
"No problem, oh yeah, your sister wanted me to give you something, here"
The brunette pulled out lapis frames from his pocket, thankfully they didn't break and were still in perfect condition.
"Oh a spare pair of glasses..."
The blue haired boy said as he placed the lapis frames on himself, though crooked of course.
"Yeah, ones that you also are unable to put straight"
The brunette replied as he fixed the smaller boy's glasses so that they no longer were crooked.
"I'm starting to think that my glasses are never crooked and that you just like to touch them..."
The blue haired boy sighed with a smile, the brunette sighed, wondering how the smaller boy whom was so smart, couldn't even put on his glasses correctly.
"Maybe, or I just like being close to you"
The brunette replied with a confident smirk, causing the blue haired boy's face to turn a wonderful shade of scarlet.
"..."
Aichi didn't know how to respond to the older teen's comment, thankfully they didn't have to because they had come across their favourite card shop; card capital.
"Want to go inside?"
The younger boy asked, the brunette raised a curious brow and nodded none the less, guessing that the stares weren't the main reason as to why he wanted to go inside.
"Hi onii-San!"
A black haired boy with red eyes called as he noticed the two enter the shop.
"Hi Kamui, how are you?"
The brunette sighed slightly, knowing that the smaller boy would most likely want to spend time around here. He wasn't the overly clingy type to get jealous, so he left the younger boy to go hang out with the blond sitting not to far away.
"Yo"
the blond called with a large grin as he raised a hand up slightly in greeting
"Miwa don't talk weirdly..."
Kai replied as he sat down at the same table as his annoying yet reliable friend.
"Fine... anyway how are you and Aichi?"
The brunette thought for a bit before shrugging.
"Fine, everything seems to be going well now I guess"
"Good! you two are so adorable together..."
The blond chirped with a huge smile, jades flickered towards the smaller boy card fighting with Kamui.
"Tch whatever..."
"Aww you're getting embarrassed!"
"..."
The blond went silent as jades seemed to pierce holes into his soul.
"Okay okay I'll stop, anyway I won a couple of tickets to go on a plane ride to an Oceanside resort in china, all expenses paid included rooming"
The brunette frowned slightly, wondering if his friend had actually been scammed.
"So you're going?"
The blond shook his head and let our a small sigh as he slouched slightly in his seat.
"I'm no good with planes... I don't trust them, so I was wondering if you'd like to take Aichi"
Jades lit up, he doubted that the blue haired boy had travelled much, he also thought that it would be nice to treat the boy to something extravagant without Aichi becoming guilty of prices.
"That would be nice... But why give them to me and Aichi?"
The blond faked a hurt expression at his friend's words.
"Ouch... We're friends! plus I don't want my winnings to go to waste!"
The brunette nodded hesitantly, as he wondered why Miwa had entered the contest in the first place if he wasn't planning on using the prize for himself.
"I guess..."
"Great! I'll go ask Aichi now"
The blond called happily as he got up from his seat to walk over towards the blue haired boy.
The brunette suppressed a smirk as a look of shock crossed over Aichi's face before it transformed into a thankful smile.
"Thank you Miwa!"
Aichi replied softly, the blond shrugged and scratched his head with a smile.
"No prob Aichi, I figured you and Kai would get better use of the tickets than me"
Sapphires flickered with slight confusion.
"Why did you enter the contest in the first place if you wouldn't use the prize?"
"Because I wanted to try winning"
"I-I see..."
The blue haired boy sighed, he guessed that it was something that the blond did often in his spare time just for fun.
"Well anyway, the tickets were for separate planes for some reason"
"Separate planes?"
"The smaller boy was slightly uneasy about the fact that he would end up in a totally different location by accident.
"Don't worry, I negotiated with the prize givers so that you two will be able to go on the same plane. They were fine, it was just a precaution to stop terrorists"
The blond explained, the brunette nodded, he had heard something about less people being on planes for better security and safety.
"Oh I see... So we're able to go on the same plane now"
The smaller boy murmured to himself.
"You can get the wondow seat if you want Aichi, I've traveled to places before."
Sapphires lit up in excitement at the thought of having a trip with the brunette.
"Thanks! I hope my mom says yes"
