-Just Pretend-
The High School Shonen-Ai Session 1: Accidents Happen"... What a boring day... I wish something more exciting would happen..." A young man with short blonde hair sighed in boredom. He starred into the sky with his wondrous hazel eyes. He was walking in the high school courtyard, after school hours, waiting for his friend to arrive. He sat on the concrete bench as a cold breeze blew by. He was a sophomore in high school.
"Hey! Aki!" A tall young man yelled out to the blonde boy. Aki turned his head waving at him. "C'mon Isamu, you were supposed to be here 15 minutes ago!" Aki seemed down and upset about something. He can sometimes be negative about himself. "...Is something wrong, Aki?" Isamu curiously asked looming over Aki.
"... It's just that I don't know why I try to even try to date someone..."
"What are you talking about?"
"... You know that one guy Haru? Well the thing is... I like him, but he doesn't seem to feel the same. I don't even know if he's ... bisexual or even gay. You know how Amaya told him that one of her guy friends like him and think he's hot... Well... this was his reaction 'What?! Umm... I'm sorry but I don't swing that way.' Everyone has been saying that they think he is but... I just don't know. He randomly came up and hugged me today... more than once, but yeah I don't think that meant anything..." Aki tended to draw out stories, often getting more negative. He seemed happy that Haru hugged him but it's his feelings.
"Dude... just see how things turn out. If he likes you he likes you. I mean look at you. You are intelligent, passionate, loving, caring, competitive, not to mention cute as a kitty... if he doesn't like that if he was then I don't know what the hell is wrong with him. Yeah I admit he is hot." Aki and Isamu are both bisexual and tend to stare at other guys. Aki is the more emotional one while Isamu is the one who usually lets things roll off of his back.
"You're right. If he does like me, he does. If he doesn't, well I guess that's just too bad." Aki smiled and got up off of the bench. "Well, I got to drop this paper off to my Chemistry teacher. I'll talk to you tomorrow."
"See you." Isamu got in his mother's burgundy jeep and they drove off. Aki turned around and tripped on an elevated piece of concrete. "... Oh I hope no one saw that... uhhhh..." Aki got up slowly and brushed himself off. He always has accidents back and forth. He just can't seem to have one day when he has at least one klutzy moment. He grabbed a tree leaf from the young nearby tree. He continued onto his Chemistry class. Aki climbed the flight of stairs, through the double doors, and down the hall. The halls were white as well as the floor and ceiling. There were a few colorful signs and brown doorways into different classrooms. That was the only color to this building and a few of the others. He realized the school needed a little creativity and dramatization. Aki pushed it through his mind as he walked into the classroom.
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Arisu. Here is the paper that was due. Sorry it took so long. It won't happen again."
"I hope not..." She took the paper with a stern look on her face. He was rather intimidated by her glare but left the room abruptly. He went back the same way he came but this time just as he rounded the corner to the hallway he ran straight into Haru, both hitting the cold, hard floor with a thud. "Ow! Hey...! Oh... uhh... I'm... sorry." Aki just realized who he had run into and began to blush although he didn't want to. He tried to hide his face.
"Ah, it's ok. Are you all right? You're not hurt are you?" Haru extended his hand to help Aki up.
"Umm, yeah I'm fine. No... I'm not hurt. I'm ... fine..." Aki couldn't help staring into Haru's deep, gorgeous, evergreen eyes. Haru scratched his spiky hair trying to see what was wrong with Aki. Haru was indeed taller than Aki, who stands about 5'8", and was only a few months older than he. The only difference between them was grade. Aki insisted on hiding his face until Haru got a full glance at it. Haru's eyes widened a little but then settled. Aki was shocked that Haru has found out. Haru just smiled and gave him another hug. "... I... uhh, must go... I'll see y-you later." Aki stormed off before Haru could answer.
The next day Aki just got to school tired from the restless night sleep he had. What affected him was the thought that Haru had found out. Aki looked up only to find Haru standing a few feet away from him. Shock slapped Aki harshly and coldly acrossed the face. Aki tried walking by unnoticed but to no avail Haru discovered him. Amaya and Isamu weren't coming for another five minutes and Haru's girlfriend was preoccupied by her friends.
"Hey Aki! What's up?" Haru poked Aki in the stomach friendly.
Aki was still shocked by Haru actually approaching him. "H-Hey Haru. Nothing really. H-How are you?" Aki blushed again, resulting in Haru smirking.
"Are you okay? I'm fine but what about you? Did you wanna tell me anything? You know I am always here for you." Aki's face just got hotter.
"Umm... umm... I-I..." Haru's possessive and blunt girlfriend came storming by.
"Come on Haru. Come spend time with me, you can with your friends some other time. Why the hell are you blushing? What do you like MY Haru?" She laughed in Aki's face and his blush faded quickly just as Isamu and Amaya came. Aki sped off with Isamu and Amaya closely following.
"Are you alright Aki? Is something the matter?" Amaya was always there for Aki and was like the older sister Aki never had. Isamu seemed like he knew just wanted to hear it from Aki's mouth.
"No... I'm not okay. Yes something is wrong. I like Haru but he has a girlfriend and it's doubtful we could ever be together. After all we are guys..." Aki slumped in the cafeteria.
"Now, now... I doubt Haru even wants to be with her."
"I think he knows... no... correction, I know he knows that I like him. See we bumped into each other yesterday and he saw me blush but I ran off before he could say anything."
"Well you can always use that to your advantage if he likes you..." Isamu raised the positive to the situation. "There is always a brighter side or as they say 'The grass is always greener on the other side'."
"He's right you know! Don't be so negative. You have a lot more than his girlfriend does." Amaya pointed out.
"What is her name anyway? Kiyoko, right?" Isamu was forgetful at times but even Aki forgot this one.
"... Yes, Isamu... You need to remember these kinds of things more." Amaya started to lecture him.
"... I didn't remember her name..." Aki muttered.
"I have the two biggest air heads for friends but I still love ya guys." Amaya smiled. Later that day Aki wondered the school halls again. Again it was after school hours and he was waiting for his grandmother to come and pick him up. As he sat on the concrete steps, he heard footsteps approaching him. At first he thought it was an adult walking by to go to the office. As they approached he thought it was a student to go get their ride. The second time he was right, but it was who had approached him. The footsteps stopped right behind him. A pair of arms wrapped around him and he jumped for a second.
"Uhh... who's behind me? Isamu is that you again?" Before Aki asked another question he remembered who wore a blue trench coat. "Uh... Haru?" Whoever it was wasn't letting him loose enough to see.
"Damn, how'd you know?" Haru sat next to him.
"Heheheh, umm your trench coat." Aki blushed again.
"I'm sorry for my girlfriend acting that way. I mean if you do like me, you can tell me. It's not like I'll freak out."
"... umm... to admit it... I do like you. Whether you feel the same as me or not, I felt you should know. I'm sorry you don't feel the same but..." He was interrupted by Haru's finger which was placed over Aki's mouth.
"Well..."
