《Bad Matches And Broken Promises》- A Renga Angst Fanfic.

"I can't belive you talked me into doing this shit." "Reki!" Langa sits up a bit, staring reki in the eyes, before his smile breaks and turns into un warned sobs. "I'm...im so sorry reki...for all the promises I broke so long ago."

Reki hesitantly walks over to langa, lightly placing a hand on his shoulder. "Cut the waterworks." "I-im sorry.. for everything-" "calm down. Let's go skate, okay? We can talk later." Langa slowly gets up and grabs his baord, which reki stares at, surprised. "Y-you kept the wheels...from the board I made you." "Yeah, how could I not?"

The two skate around for hours, their moods slowly lightening up. It really all changed when langa felt it again. The same feeling he felt all those years ago, the feeling of pure joy from just being around reki. And for just a split reki could've sworn langas eyes had a bit more life than usual. And for just a split second rekis constant self depreciating thoughts are silent.

After hours of skating and the two both getting worn out. They sit down next to each other. "Listen langa, this doesn't mean everything is better now. I just wanted to skate anyways, and sense you offered, I figured why not." Langa nods slowly in acknowledgment. "Yknow reki...maybe you should come say hi to the others some time-" "and get disappointed parnet glares from Joe and cherry!? And have miya call me a bitch!? Yeah no thanks. I already know exactly what I am, I don't need a reminder." Langa goes to speak but no sound comes out, so he slowly just forgets about whatever point he was planning on making.

Rekis off at collage but langa still lives with his mom, he didn't wanna be far away from the others, yeah he goes to collage but he doesn't live there like reki does. Reki moved out and away from everyone the second that he could.

Later that day langa goes into his qoute on qoute "family group chat" with Joe cherry and miya.

Langa:*"Hey guys, sorry I had to go earlier"
Joe:*"dong worry about it kid"
Langa:*"..I'm in collage."
Cherry:*"kid."
Langa:*"anyways, I ran into reki again. We actually talked."
Miya:*"cool tell him he's a bitch"
Langa:*"no- you realize he didn't leave because of you, right? It was my fault. If you wanna call someone a bitch call me one."
Miya:*"whatever, he's still a traitor.."

Langa sighs at his phone. He's known how miyas felt about reki leaving everyone for years. It was understandable how miya felt like reki was a traitor and a liar. He had had his own reasons but that doesn't change what he's done by leaving. Despite that langa was still fully set on talking with reki again. Maybe he could get reki to be back in their little group, eventually.
