Lunch time

A

uthors note: <texting>


Enno, Kino and Narita go to Shoyos class, to collect him

Enno- <Sho, we're outside your class>

Shoyo- <on my way>

Once Shoyo is with them, they head to the roof and find a quiet, isolated place to eat their lunch and more importantly talk, the three boys with him, want to know what is going on with their sunshine.

Enno is the first to speak, "Sho, will you please tell us what has happened to you"
"Ummmm, I don't know where to start" he muses
"How about starting with what happened to your back" Enno snaps
Sho looks down as he replies, "the bruises or the cuts"
Narita calmly states "let's start with the bruises, shall we"
"Mmhm, well the bruises came from being thrown or kicked down the stairs, my back is the only place I couldn't cover, which is why I wait until everyone leaves before changing now" he says as matter of factly as he can
Kino calmly speaks, well as calmly as he can "Shoyo, will you please show me your arms"
Shoyo hesitantly gives Kino his arms, Kino rolls up his sleeves and pours water on them, slowly removing the foundation and revealing all the bruises, some old, some new.

Enno gasps "Sho, they didn't come from falling down the stairs, well not all of them. But we'll get back to that"

Shoyo looks at Kino, "Ki, what were you really checking for?"
Kino looks at him "Shoyo, you know what I was looking for"
Narita seems to understand "you were trying to see if he had been cutting himself weren't you"
Enno throws his hands in the air and says "seriously"
Kino sighs in relief for not seeing what he feared "yes I was and yes seriously, I don't want someone I care about doing that again"
Shoyo looks happy and understands "I know, my promise to you is the only reason why I haven't though"

Enno is now confused again "Kino, what do you mean again? And Sho what promise?"
Kino looks down trying not to cry "my mom, cut herself a lot"
Shoyo hugs Kino and looks at Enno "I promised that no matter what happens in life, I would never intentionally self harm"
Enno is shocked "sorry Kino, I didn't know, but Sho how did you know?"
Shoyo rolls his eyes at him "I know everyone's pain on the team, thats the reason, I don't take the comments the salty-er members say to heart, cuz they are hurting and can't handle their emotions very well"
Narita- "that scarily makes sense, although I have seen you look hurt by those words"
Shoyo rolls his eyes again "oh, really"
Narita- "let's get back on topic, shall we?"
Kino- "yeah, you can give us an explanation for that eyeroll after"
Shoyo- "ok"
Enno- "now tell us about the cuts"

Before Shoyo can answer all their phones go off, making them jump a little, they all look at their phones to see its the group chat
