Summary: He can't control what he hates. Teikou Days.
Just self-indulgent because of season 3.
Anger
When he sees Ryouta play for the first time, he wants to snort. He rarely has a hunch about people, but when he does, he's often right.
They're not going to get along.
He hates the way Ryouta can copy moves. He hates the way it's almost flawless. He hates the way they're so fucking similar. Are they supposed to compete for the place of copycat in the team? That's a sick joke. That guy can't beat him. Shougo is better and there's no way he's gonna lose.
This is probably why he needs to prove his superiority to a weakling like Ryouta every time he has the opportunity to. He can't stand those awed stares the guy receives, because what the hell, it's not a big deal. So he can play basketball in such a short time, and what? Are they gonna praise him and give him a reward or something? Those admirers of his are a bunch of idiots—Shougo is thankful to the ones who despise Ryouta as much as he does. At least they have some common sense.
Bullying hasn't really been part of activities, but he finds himself enjoying doing it to the target of his recent scorn. He likes taunting him. He likes seeing him flare with rage. He likes making him show his true nature. Shougo isn't fooled; he knows that Ryouta isn't as kind and good-hearted as he says he is. This pretty face of his hides much uglier sentiments, almost as wicked as Shougo's.
Shougo may hates this cheerful and fake smile, but he likes the raw emotions these eyes reflect.
So he makes sure to twist this smile into a more pleasant scowl, because it's so entertaining to witness the radical changes this one face can show. It almost has become an obsession, a goal to reach whenever he sees him.
Shougo hates, hates, hates him. He hates him so he wants to taint him with vicious stains of red mixed with madness. Angry spots on white skin glare at him while amber orbs are burning with resentment. Bitter grey eyes hold the gaze.
"I'm fucking gonna destroy that face of yours," he spits one day.
"I'd like to see you try," Ryouta's reply is practically automatic.
Shougo can't help but want to smash Ryouta's face into pieces.
It's said that people tend to break what they love the most.
