The rain patted down on him firmly. Zero's lavender eyes looked down at the pavement as he kept his head down. His hoodie wasn't stopping him from getting soaked by the rain.
He forgot to bring an umbrella because he was in a rush and now he was going to be a soaked sponge by the time he actually got to school. His mind wasn't really focused on the rain, or him getting wet. It was more focused on wrapping his head around Kaname.
He was so confusing. One minute he is nice and the next he is mean. It didn't make sense to Zero at all. Was he having a boy period or something? That was the only reason Zero could come with.
His feet slashed as he walked, stepping in puddles on the concrete below him. Zero sighed as he felt his shoes now becoming soaked with water.
'Today is the worst.' Zero thought in his head and shivered slightly as a rush of wind thrusted itself into Zero's already soaked body.
"Zero?" A voice called out to him. Zero quickly lifted his head and looked on the other side of the road to see Kaname wearing a jacket and holding a black umbrella.
'Even he remembered to bring an umbrella.' Zero pointed out and stopped walking as he watched Kaname cross the road carefully. Once Kaname was next to him he put his umbrella over Zero to protect him from the rain.
"You forgot to bring an umbrella?" Kaname asked curiously, a hint of amusement in his voice. Zero merely nodded as he continued to look at the ground.
He didn't want to say anything. Well not to Kaname at least. He didn't want to be any more confused than he already was.
'And now you're acting nice to me.' Zero huffed, his eyes still glued to the ground. The two began walking together quietly. Crimson eyes stared at Zero for awhile until looking around to find something, anything, to talk about.
'lts so awkward.' Kaname grumbled in his head and opened his mouth to say something but closed it again. 'There is really nothing to talk about.' Kaname thought in his mind and then looked at the sky then the silver-haired boy. Suddenly it was like an idea for a conversation ticked in his head.
"If it keeps raining all day, we might not have to run the marathon in P.E," Kaname said and watched the other boy closely.
"Yeah." Zero replied quietly to Kaname. Crimson eyes remained still. They wanted to both widen and narrow at the same time but that'd just look weird.
"Is something wrong?" Kaname asked and tilted his head to the side. His face filled with worry as he looked at the others pale complexion.
"I'm fine, just a little tired," Zero replied looked up to see the two had arrived at the school gate. The two stopped walking and stood there for a minute. "Thank you for walking with me today and being generous to share your umbrella with me." Zero said politely, Kaname's lips curled up into a small smile.
"Your welcome. It's good to have someone to walk with." Kaname replied smoothly. Zero nodded and looked at the school.
"I'm going to go now." Zero said and quickly got out from under the umbrella and rushed off to the building. Kaname's crimson eyes trailed after him. A churning in Kaname's stomach told him something was a little off with Zero today.
Slowly he began walking to the same building that Zero had completely vanished inside of. His stomach still telling him something was off, but Kaname chose to push it to the side and ignore it for now. It wasn't important.
