"That was amazing!" Yufumi exclaimed. It had been awhile since he last saw fireworks.

"It was, wasn't it?" Tsukasa asked with a hint of mirth. He was secretly pleased with himself for managing to light up the tired teen's face.

"Thanks a lot for that and for taking me in. I know we just met and it was really rude of me to demand you things-"

"It's alright." The Eirin heir interrupted.

"No it wasn't. It was rude and you know it. See, I was really tired a few hours ago and I kind of directed my anger towards you so-"

"I said it was alright." The raven-haired teen interrupted again.

"It's been awhile since I last talked to another person who doesn't see me as my rich father's son. It relieved me to see you treat me as any other guy; In fact, I should be the one thanking you. You spared me from being alienated in the town festival. I'll never fit in." Tsukasa leaned on the porch. His eyes reflected the lights far from where they were, but they looked sad. It was impossible for Yufumi not to notice.

"You looked normal when I saw you. I would never have expected you to be a rich kid if you didn't offered me your hand and took me into your mansion. Plus, you were nice and you reacted like any mundane guy I've seen, and I'm not exactly human so I don't have the right to call you anything." The snow arcobaleno smirked before he sat on the porch.

"Hey! You might fall off." The younger teen said worryingly but Yufumi didn't move from his place. If he leaned backwards a little more he could fall off from where he was, and not to mention Tsukasa's room was in the third floor.

"Don't look at me like that, Tsukasa. I won't die easily. " then he swished his legs back and forth like a kid which made the worried guy sigh.

"So...What were those fireworks for?" He asked.

"Would you believe me if I told you I arranged that to make my new found friend smile?" Tsukasa jokingly answered with a question.

"There's a festival tonight. That was why I carried the wooden lamp." He added.

Yufumi stared at him for a minute.

"It's mighty brave of you to trust me and let me into your room." Yufumi changed the topic. He was curious as to why the other guy trusted him that much.

"You don't look like a bad guy to me." The other remarked lamely.

"Seriously, don't trust strangers easily." Yufumi said with a disapproving note.

"But you're not a stranger and you're my guest now." Tsukasa argued.

"And you're not human. You're an arcobaleno! Now that I remembered it, what's an arcobaleno? I've never heard of it before. Is it some kind of ghost or fairy or something?" He finally asked the question that has been bothering him.

"An arcobaleno is actually a group of cursed people. We were cursed to be in our infant form and we'll never age or die. See this pacifier?" He showed the Alice blue- pacifier to the Tsukasa. "All of us have these but each of us has different colour. Mine can sometimes turn to pure white but that's just me. We have different abilities too, but I'm a bit different from the others. No one knows my existence." Yufumi explained.

"How come you're not a baby then?" The younger teen asked.

"I'm an exception. Plus, I'm the only person that can use snow flames. I could do more than just freeze things up but it's basically my main ability. Any more questions?" He said in tone that he used to use whenever he speaks to dogs. No offense intended.

"You're special. I knew it."Tsukasa beamed. There was just something about him that was off.

"Just don't tell anyone else about it. Usually only mafias know about it, but I'm a different kind of arcobaleno and I don't want anyone to know anything about me, got it?" He knew the answer of the other guy but he just had to make sure.

"I'll keep your secret. Don't worry."

They both smiled at the same time.

"You're pretty good at accepting things."

"You're too human to be afraid of."

"That's a given."

"Admit it. You're too normal. "But a lot more special than the others. Tsukasa pointed out as he ran his hand through his hair.

"I look normal, but I'm not." Yufumi said in a persistent tone.

"Yeah, but you see-"

Knock. Knock. Knock.

"Eirin-sama, are you in there?" asked the butler-like teen of the Eirin household. The second Tsukasa heard him; he quickly shushed his secret guest.

"Stay here. That's just Toshiki-san. I forgot to tell you I have to greet the younger guests my father had invited. Don't worry; I'll be back here as soon as I can." He stepped out of the terrace and slid the glass door to close it leaving the other teen outside.

"I'll be out in a second!" He shouted, raised two fingers on his lips to signal his guest to be quiet before he slid the curtain to hide the presence of the smaller teen.


(Yufumi's POV)

Tsukasa told me to be quiet and I have to say I had no choice but to do what he instructed. Apparently, he decided to hide me out in the terrace instead of in those huge closets of him or in the bathroom.

...Though it sure was cute of him to be sweet like a little kid. I wasn't really surprised when he said I was the first person who treated him normal. He was a rich kid so it was expected for him to be either a spoiled brat or a friendless gloomy kid.

He looked quite lonely for a second back then, but he quickly hid it. It made me a bit guilty that I was going to leave him.

Slowly, I tried to take a peek inside his room and by pure coincidence the curtain and the glass door slid open.

It was just Tsukasa. He was wearing a black tuxedo, it suited him.

"You look better. It suits you more than that faded yukata." I said with a smile. I was truly weird how his face would light up whenever I look at him, but what caught my eye more was that he was holding a paper bag that contained some clothes that were hopefully for me.

"I brought you some clothes. Your yukata is a bit dirty now after we ran through the forest. Hope this fits! My Tou-san bought them for me a month ago but it's too small for me; I think they'll fit you. Here. Take it. I have to go now. Ja'ne!" On that note, he left again. That was quick.

I don't like how he trusted me too easily. He was too trusting for his own good. A bit naive too. We just met and he already took me to his room already. Not to mention he left me alone in his room.

The kid wasn't going to last if he were to be involved in mafia issues. What if I was an assassin?

...but then again, I trusted him too, but there's a difference between us. I'm a professional hit man, he isn't. I guess we're just both idiots.

I sighed.

What was I doing musing about a kid I'll be leaving soon? I shouldn't get too familiar with him. He's just a lonely kid who wants friends and I know a desperate soul when I see one.

Why was I even worrying about him anyway? I barely know him.

I took the clothes in the paper bag he gave me. In a matter of minutes, I was already wearing a plain white shirt with a hoodie and white black jeans.

I was about to head for the bathroom when I saw a piece of paper fell down from the paper bag.

It was the receipt for the clothes and I caught my breath when I saw it.

I wasn't looking at the price.

...I was looking at the date it was bought

And if it was true then it will only mean one thing...

I've been asleep for hundreds of years.
