''Today is the day that you all graduate from middle school. may you spread your wings and fly high, move on to high school, and live your lives with no regrets.'' Mr. Kensuke announced over the microphone, ''Make Mizo middle school proud!''
...
''Takemitchy!!'' The young blonde exclaimed, running up to the taller, reaching his arms out to hug him. ''Congrats on graduating!!'' he cheered, eyes shining with excitement.
Takemitchi furrowed his eyebrows, ''Aren't we going to the same high school?''
Chifuyu released Takemitchi ''Yeah, I just wanted to say it out loud!'' he admitted as they started walking. ''I hope we end up in the same class again in high school!''
''Yeah, sure.''
''Whaddya mean, ''Sure.''!?
but before Takemitchi could respond chifuyu had already had him in a headlock, balling his hand into a fist and rubbing one of his knuckles against Takemitchi's head making him groan in pain ''Ouch!'' Takemitchi cried.
''You could say it with a little more feelings, yknow!''
This is Chifuyu matsuno. I guess we've been friends since elementary school. we just started talking by chance one day.
...
he took out his apartment key, unlocking the door to the residence. He expected the apartment to be vacant. What he DID not expect was to walk in and hear muffled sounds, and whimpers coming from the living room.
Takemitchi immediately closed the door to the apartment and began running down the stairs. ''That freakin' woman! I told her not to bring her clients home anymore!'' he shouted out, running to the community park in the center of his apartment complex. ''That's gotta be the number one thing a guy going through puberty should NOT have to see!''
...
He rested his head on the seat of the park bench, sighing miserably. 'No place to go, no money. Might even get picked up by the cops out here.'' he said to himself. His voice sore as ever.
After about an hour of silence, he started to hear faint 'meowing'' in the distance, he decided to get up and search where the sound was coming from. as he got closer he could see a figure hovering over a blanket.
"Hello?" Takemitchi addressed.
The figure turned towards Takemitchi's direction, his big blue eyes looked curious and worried at the same time.
That's when I found Chifuyu.
...
''Leaving a poor little guy like this to pick up, It's damn cruel'' Takemitchi frowned, crouching down to get a better look. the cat was in horrible shape, it was so starved that his bones began to show. ''He must be hungry'' Chifuyu said.
Takemitchi snorted, ''Must?''
''We should probably give it some milk. It looks like it could be malnourished. Even without Its mother's milk, Some warm, watered-down regular milk should do the trick.''
''Then I'll take it home with me!''
Takemitchi looked at Chifuyu, ''Really? then I'll leave the rest to...'' he started, getting up to walk home but was stopped by takemitchi who was pulling the hem of his shirt.
Takemitchi felt shivers run down his back at the sight of the eyes of the other. 'So shiny...'
''Pet expert.'' Chifuyu said, looking up at the boy with a creeped out face.
''What's with the puppy dog eyes?'' Takemitchi shuddered. ''It's creepy.''
...
"I just wanted to come out here to bury Kuwakichi, I never thought I'd end up bringing back a kitten." Chifuyu chuckled, breaking the awkward silence between them.
"Kuwakichi?" Takemitchi questioned, puckering his brow.
''The stag beetle I caught out here with my friend in elementary school. we searched around for ages 'til we finally found kuwakichi.''
''Gotcha. your friend must be pretty sad right now too, then.'' Takemitchi assumed.
''Who knows? we don't talk anymore.''
Takemitchi directed his attention to the shorter, noticing how his facial expression altered. "How come?"
Chifuyu sighed, ''He transferred to another school, and we kinda...cut ties.''
Takemitchi focused his attention back to the ground. ''I see. my bad.''
''That's fine! That's all ancient history now! It doesn't bother me at all! I honestly don't care.'' Chifuyu denied, obviously lying. ''I don't! I really could care less! I swear!''
'Youre not a good liar, Yknow?'
Chifuyu doesn't usually get all worked up over things but when it comes to mistakes, and past tents he goes on a lying spree.
''Over there! there's my house.'' Chifuyu pointed at the big house. the kind in which most American kids dreamed of growing up. Secluded among trees on one of DC's most exclusive streets, it had turrets, gables, dormers, balconies, a screened-in front porch, a free-standing garage, a gazebo, a pool, formal gardents, the American dream.
Takemitchi's looked at the house in pure amazement, "wow."
''Hold on, we are almost home!'' Chifuyu cooed the kitten, kissing him on the forehead.
Takemitchi felt a hand push his back, making him go faster. ''Hurry up!'' Chifuyu grinned, ''Quit pushing me!''
''Cmon faster!''
...
Chifuyu held the bottle of milk while the baby kitten drunk out of it. 'He's drinking! He's drinking!'' he whispered happily.
Takemitchi sighed in relief, ''Chifuyu, what are your plans with the kitten?''
''What do you mean?'' Fuyu asked, takemitchi looked at him dumbfounded, ''Are you going to keep it?''
'' 'Course!'' The blondd answered.
''Okay, that's good. Lucky you, getting picked up tonight'' Takemitchi said towards the cat.
''AHHH!!!'' Chifuyu shouted. pressing both of his hands against his head.
''What's wrong all of a sudden!?'' Takemitchi asked, a disturbing look plastered on his face.
''CRAP! WHAT WAS I THINKING!? If my brother finds out I brought home a kitten he's gonna beat me half-dead!'' Chifuyu panicked, scurrying around the room.
''WHERE CAN I HIDE!?''
''Are you seriously that scared of your brother?'' questioned, putting his legs against his chest, shifting away from the panicking boy.
''Scared doesn't even begin to cover it! he said he was going to take care of some gangsters earlier tonight, but he could be back any minute!''
''Taking care of some gangsters?'' Takemitchi questioned.
''Crap! Crap! Crap!''
''I know this sounds crazy...'' Takemitchi started.
''HE'S GONNA KILL ME!!''
''But...does your brother go around beating up thugs and gangsters around town!?'' Takemitchi asked as if this was a life or death situation.
''YEAH!'' mitchi replied.
''Does he have a beauty mark!?''
''YEAH!''
''Does he always wear weird T-Shirts!?''
''YEAH!'' Chifuyu answered. but this time he was even more scared.
''Does he boil up the gangsters he catches in a pot!?''
''YEAH! wait, what?''
''Huh?'' an older voice echoed through the room, Takemitchi and Chifuyu turned slowly to the entrance of the door where the voice came from, watching as the boy with the weird T-Shirts walked up to the couch they were sitting on.
''Who the hell saying my T-Shirts are weird?''
Takemitchi scanned the man up and down. Not missing a single detail. There was no doubt, that was him for sure. ''BEAR KILLER!!"
