'These are for thoughts'

Coincidence?

"I'm back!" Ren yelled when she opened the door. "And we've got some guests!"

Eden, not knowing who her friend could have invited, looked at the entrance to see who she brought along.

Her eyes widened in surprise, then she asked, "H-How did you find them? Why are they here?"

"Turns out we're neighbors!" Ren said happily. "I saw them right outside right here and invited them in."

"Oh really? Cool, I guess." Eden got up and offered Nowaki and Hiroki seats on the couch and something to eat or drink.

"Thanks, but we already ate lunch a while ago." Nowaki replied. They also had sex somewhere in between so that's why they didn't decline the offer. Otherwise, they would have gone home and done it there. But neither of the two men would admit that or say it out loud.

They all sat around each other not saying a word for a couple of awkward seconds then Nowaki said something to clear the awkward silence.

"S-So… why did you guys come to Japan?"

"Ah, there's this one program that we were in that allowed us to come study abroad in Japan." Eden answered.

"Program? What kind of program? And how are both of you in it if you're from different schools from different states?" Hiroki asked out of curiosity.

"Well, um… the program is for people that want to go study abroad but they can't because or various reasons. It was set up in seven different states and we just happened to be in one of those states." Ren answered.

"So did you become friends through this thing?" Nowaki asked.

"No, we actually go a while back, when I was 16 and Ren was 14. We're 23 and 21 now. We met through the internet, as a matter of fact." Ren nodded her head as Eden was speaking.

"We just talked on a social media website where you can just blog about random crap you like and others follow you and can reblog your things so that their followers can see the crap that we both like. Its like an endless cycle of blogging and reblogging. Seems boring but once you get in, you'll never make it out alive."

"DUN DUN DUUNN~!" Eden chimed.

"Yeah so anyways, we've been talking to each other through the internet until I finally went to go see her. I went back home after about three weeks. We still talked on the website but then we found out about the program and now we're here talking to you guys.

"Story of our lives." Eden ended.

"Wow, I have never heard of people becoming best friend through the internet." Nowaki said, finishing one can of beer.

"What are you guys' studying then?" the quiet shorty asked.

"I'm studying literature because I love books and hope to be a writer some day. Maybe you'll be my teacher, Kamijo-sensei~." Eden said teasingly pulling on his shirt with her second half-full can of beer in hand. Hiroki shuddered a little bit.

"I'm hoping to major in animation. I love books too but I just like reading them. I'm not such a good writer. I wish to one day work for Square Enix or some anime company. I've also thought of becoming a mangaka but decided not to. Seems stressful." Ren said smiling.

"Oh, so we're not going to be in the same field like them two, huh?" Nowaki said.

"Yeah, I can't really deal with kids. Not my specialty."

After one hour of talking, it was finally time for Nowaki and Hiroki to leave. They said their goodbyes and congratulated the tipsy Eden and seemingly sober Ren. She drank four cans of beer and seems fine but Eden on the other hand, looked like she was about to collapse with only three and a half cans.

.~~.

Hiroki had settled into bed with Nowaki right next to him.

"I'm cold." The brunette said. Nowaki snuggled his lover and put his head in between the smaller mans neck and shoulder.

"Is that better, Hiro-san?"

"Yes." He mumbled. And they both slept soundly asleep after that.

.~~.

It was late in the morning when you can hear Hiroki yelling, "Damn, Nowaki! Why didn't he wake me up!?" while getting ready to go to work. He went out the door one minute later and headed to class.

"My sweet honey~!" an older professor said, clinging onto the almost late teacher. "You know, if you turned that frown upside down, you might not age as fast."

"I would if you stopped clinging on me all the time. Get off!" he exclaimed.

"Oh yes, I forgot to tell you, you have a new student. She's from America by the way." Miyagi informed him.

'Wait a second… a girl, America, literature… It couldn't be.' Hiroki thought. 'Does she know what school I teach at too? Is she following me around?!'

The bell chimed and it was time to go to class

"Take good care of her and don't throw things at her!" Miyagi said.

"We'll see."

Hiroki was at class now and hasn't seen a sign of Eden being there. 'Must have not been her,' he thought.

It was after the class was over that Hiroki realized his nightmare had come true.

"Kamijou-sensei, I didn't know that you taught here." Eden said, a little surprised.

"You didn't, huh? So it wasn't in the books then?"

"No. Authors don't really use real places and sometimes names in most books. I think its for safety reasons or something. I don't really know." she replied.

"So Bakahiko used our real names but not places, huh?" Hiroki mumbled to himself, audible to those around him.

"Bakahiko? Is that a nickname or something?" Eden was gathering her thoughts. "Wait a second, do you know the author? Did you give him that nickname or something? Do you think you can introduce us?" she asked, too many questions at once.

"So what if I do? I'm going to his house in three days but I'm not taking you." Hiroki glared.

"Fine then. I guess that I will actually follow you for the first time in three days. 'Till then, sensei." And with that, she left.

'Why do I get stuck with all the weirdo psychos?' the professor sighed.

.~~.

"Hey, guess what, Ren?" Eden asked, not waiting for any answers, "Kamijou-san is my teacher! Isn't that so awesome?!" Her feels were all over the place.

"Y-Yeah. Oh, did you know? There are a lot of hot and cute guys at this university. There's those badass looking guys that are into traditional art and those cute nerdy guys in animation. My school is awesome!"

Both girls started daydreaming and fangirling away. Then they remembered their priorities and started to do their homework and study.

.~~.

"Uwah! You would not believe who I just saw at school today." Hiroki complained to his tall lover in the kitchen.

"Let me guess, Eden-san is your new student." Nowaki smiled.

"How did you know that?"

"Well, seeing how she's into literature and going to a university and how you're complaining, I wouldn't be surprised if she ended up going to your school."

"Well, whatever. I'm going to take a bath first, I'm tired." And he was. Today was a long day for him.
