theme # 7- cringe
"La li ho!" Shuichi called, his high pitched voice making Suguru cringe and his head pound. Suguru grit his teeth and clenched his hands. Ow… Goddamn headache. It felt like little chibis were running around with hammers and banging his skull, cackling all the while.
He figured it was because he skipped breakfast this morning. Or maybe it was just Shuichi's voice. No, but that couldn't be, because he had the headache before Shuichi got there.
K started yelling at Shuichi for being late and Sakano sat down, finally out of his panic attack. Suguru took several deep breaths and repressed the urge to yell at them all. The noise was making his head pound even more. He walked away and out of the room, only Hiro noticing.
Three minutes later, Hiro appeared in front of Suguru, holding something small, white, and cylindrical in the palm of his hand.
Suguru stared at it for a moment. Once he realized what it was though, he snatched it out of Hiro's hand and swallowed it dry. Then he raised his eyes to Hiro's. "How did you know?"
Hiro ruffled Suguru's hair, ignored the scowl thrown his way, and then said, "You always get that certain look on your face when you get a headache."
Suguru's face relaxed. The pain was letting up a little. "Thanks," he said, starting to walk back to the room.
Hiro slung an arm around Suguru's shoulders and replied, "No problem."
