It’s a student holiday week, but teachers have training. They meet up by the school, and they are paired up by experience. Coach Kyoutani and Yahaba-sensei were paired. There wasn’t a dress code, so this is the first time in a while that Kyoutani saw Yahaba in his famous, high-waisted, wide-leg, loose jeans. Yahaba just wore a white shirt with it. Kyoutani just wore joggers and a black shirt. It was awkward as fuck. They sat in front of each other. They were supposed to be working together, but it fell into silence. But it was broken moments later.

“Is this right?” Kyoutani asked, sliding his paper over.

“Yeah, but you used the wrong ‘there.’ It’s t-h-e-y-r-e,” Yahaba said. “I like your bracelet,” Yahaba subconsciously said. It was a simple black beaded bracelet with a Nirvana smiley face.

“My niece made it,” Kyoutani said, showing his bracelet. Yahaba remembers Kyoutani’s sister and her boyfriend.

“My nephew made this one.” Yahaba showed a crazy bracelet that had stars and flowers. “He doesn’t know how to make a proper bracelet yet. It’s still my favorite.”

“Shuji and Chie’s ?” That was Yahaba’s older brother’s and his girlfriend’s- now-fiancé- names. Yahaba nodded.

“This one is Watari’s and Hana’s kid’s. It’s a little girl.” Yahaba showed a cotton candy color bracelet that read ‘shigeru’… well more like ‘ShiGeRu.’ It had all types of fonts.

“They are still together?” Kyoutani asked. Yahaba nodded.

“They got married 2 years ago,” Yahaba said. Kyoutani subconsciously did the math. They got married at 21. He suddenly got a vivid memory.

10 years ago~

13-year-old Yahaba and Kyoutani were laying in Kyoutani’s full-size bed, facing each other.

“Ken,” Yahaba said, breaking the silence, looking at his loving new boyfriend’s relaxed face. Kyoutani hummed. “We are going to be together forever right?” Kyoutani opened his resting eyes and stared at Yahaba for a second, processing the question.

“Of course,” Kyoutani said, flipping over, feeling embarrassed at the question.

“You’ll marry me?” Yahaba asked, crawling over to Kyoutani, tracing his spine with his pointer finger. Yahaba and Kyoutani had their first fight since they started dating. They were supposed to be asleep, but he was scared that Kyoutani was going to break up with him either today or tomorrow or in 3 years.

“The moment we graduate I’ll get down on one knee and really ask you to marry me, but for now,” Kyoutani turned around held Yahaba’s wrist where the ‘SETTER’ bracelet is. “This is our ring.”

“What about our wedding?” Yahaba asked. Kyoutani scooted in, kissing Yahaba’s nose.

“21? So we can drink,” Kyoutani offered. Yahaba nodded.

“We’ll look so great,” Yahaba traced Kyoutani’s face. “You’ll look so different… I bet you’ll be hot with some stubble and a jawline.” Kyoutani kissed Yahaba’s hand when it passed his mouth. “Oh… for us to be 21.” They laughed, cuddling and drifting off.

“-tani? Coach? Kyoutani?” Yahaba said, snapping his fingers.

“Yeah?” Kyoutani asked, snapping out of it.

“You were just zoned out,” Yahaba said, going back to the quiz. “You married?” Kyoutani almost choked on air.

“Hell, no,” Kyoutani said. “You?”
