FYI: Except for Miyuki, Kuramochi and Eijun, no one else on the team is gay, but I will make their interactions similar enough so they can possibly be shipped if you would like to imagine it that way. Just saying…
Chapter 5: Reunion
"R… Ryo-san?"
"Kuramochi?"
"What the heck are you wearing– whoa!"
Swiftly, Ryosuke reversed their positions and held Kuramochi's hands above his head. He grinded his knee into his hip, giving him the most devilish sneer. "Shut your damn mouth," he growled. "You will keep your mouth closed about this or else I will find you and kill you. Do not tell anyone about this. You hear me?"
Kuramochi gulped, his heart pounding. "S-Sure."
The third year sighed heavily. "I never thought someone would see me like this. You, of all people. To be honest, this is the real me. I'm… a porn star. Is there anything you'd like to say about this?"
"Uh… why the sudden revelation?"
"Because you're the only person I can trust."
"Why are you a porn star?"
"I can't tell you; that's sensitive information." Ryosuke stood, patting the back of his skirt. "I'll be back by next week. Tell no one."
Kuramochi nodded hesitantly, sitting up. "R-Roger." 'Oh, my God. He looks so much better in that outfit. But… why is he a porn star? Does that mean he knows Sawa-chan?! I have so many questions and I'm so confused~'
"Yay!" Eijun shouted. "Mochi-senpai does have movies money! We're watching Jurassic Sekai!"
"Nope!" Jun cackled. "You're gonna buy us snacks, then watch the movie! Don't take long or you might miss it!" As the rest of the team went inside the theater, the brunette skipped to the concession stand, pondering about what to get. "Since Jun-san is salty, I might get him nachos. Popcorn and chicken tenders for everyone else, slurpees and candy! I'm a genius!"
After ordering and paying the total ($72.65) with Kuramochi's credit card, he sat on a bench. "Thank God the line is empty. Now I can sit and– no… no way. No way!" He squealed as Mei walked through the sliding doors, dressed in a blue sleeveless hoodie and running shorts. "Meiri!"
The blonde looked up from the ground and rolled his eyes. "Reiji, you can go now. I'll call you when the movie's over."
Reiji bowed and rolled away in his van.
Walking towards Eijun, Mei folded his arms. "What makes you think you can call me by that name in public, Sawa-chan?"
Eijun smiled, giving him a hug. "Aw, come on! It's been forever since we last saw each other! What are you doing here?"
"Can't a porn star have time to himself for a while? And you?"
"I'm here with my baseball team."
"You actually decided to go to school with that pea-sized brain of yours? It's a miracle. What school?"
"Seido."
Mei's heart skipped a beat. He closed his eyes, walking to the ticket booth. "Nice." 'Seido? Seido Highschool? If I'm not mistaken, that must mean Kazuya's there.'
The first year pouted. "Hey, where are you going? We're not done talking~"
"We are now. So shut up and get your damn food."
"The movie already started, baka," Jun complained as Eijun passed them their food. "Oi, why did I get nachos?!"
"Because you're salty."
"What did you just-"
Tetsu patted his arm. "Don't bother arguing. Everyone knows it's true. You can be salty at times… mostly all the time."
"Why do we have to share?" Miyuki asked, putting a straw into their slurpee.
Eijun leaned back in the reclining chair. "You drank after me a few days ago in bed without hesitation; this is basically the same thing."
The bespectacled teen flushed, gasping. "Shh! We're not supposed to talk about that!"
'We all heard that,' the rest of the team thought.
2 hours later…
Eijun grinned. "See? I told you guys Jurassic Sekai was an awesome movie! The part where they thought the dinosaur escaped, but then they got trapped inside was awesome!"
"Don't spoil it for other people!" Kuramochi said sharply. 'Sheesh, porn stars can't keep their mouths shut! Wait… they're not supposed to. Damn, that was funny.'
"Where's Miyuki?" Chris asked, looking around.
"He said he had to use the bathroom," Kawakami responded.
Mei exhaled as he washed his hands. "Watching the Avengers was totally worth it. The way Quicksilver died was petty-" He froze, noticing the reflection in his mirror. "I can sense that this isn't a normal coincidence… Kazuya."
Miyuki lowered his head. "Mei."
"Is there a problem?"
"I'm sorry. For the millionth time, I'm sorry."
The blonde scowled, turning off the faucet. "Saying sorry won't change the past, Kazuya. Saying sorry won't change what I've become. You should know that by now."
The bespectacled teen placed his hand on the latter's shoulder. "Mei, listen to me. I'm sorry. I won't stop begging until you forgive me. Plus, aren't you happy being a porn star now?"
Mei shrugged the catcher off, gritting his teeth. "What makes you think I'm happy? Why am I not smiling like I used to? It's your fault I'm like this and I will never forgive you. Never. We're done talking. Don't tell Sawa-chan about this."
On the way to the karaoke bar, Eijun noticed something strange about Miyuki. "Kazuya, are you ok? You seem shaken up."
The second year shook his head. "No, I'm fine. Jurassic Sekai just got me in the feels."
The brunette clutched his cup of soda to his chest. "Yes! Finally, someone that agrees with me!"
"Hehe, you're welcome." 'Mei… I'm sorry… I couldn't control what happened, yet you still blame it on me… all I can say is sorry…'
