A Silver volvo parked infront of a beige home. For a city boy like m/n, the place was rather dead. Just the way i like it. He thought to himself, getting out of the vehicle, taking in his surroundings.

It was rather chilly, perhaps it's due to the fact he arrived at 4 AM. Either way, he did not expect it to be chilly, he cursed under his breath as hugged himself.

Unbeknownst to him, a certain grey haired male with black tips caught a glimpse of his arrival. Despite his curiousity, the man did not investigate even further, he has important things to do than to idle and observe someone foreign to their town.

"Shinsuke dear, could you pass me the basket?"

Asked by his ever so gentle grandmother, the man immediately retract from his previous state, handing the basket full of vegetables he just harvested to his grandmother.

A word of gratitude was sent to his way, which he just dismissed, deciding to focus on his task.

Whilst, the newcomer was busy taking in his new place. Something vibrated in his pocket. As it became persistent, it made him annoyed. earning a 'tch' from him before fishing out the hand held device close to his ear.

"What do you want?"

He barked, rubbing his temple with his free hand as he went towards the front door.

"Is that how you treat your dear friend, m/n-chan?"

Another tch came out of his mouth, If this rooster head won't stop calling me with an endearment, god help me i will strangle him once i see hi- His internal rant about his friend was cut short by a tap from his shoulder.

With one brow raised up, he turned to the person who tapped him.

His frown was met with an uncomfortable look from the other male. The man infront of him was somewhat same age as him, but with- blonde? or gold? either way it looked like piss to me.

"I'm sorry for bothering you, but my mom wanted to welcome you to the neighbourhood"

The piss haired male explained his presence infront of m/n, handing out a basket full of edibles with a card handwritten by what m/n assumed as this guy's mother.

Of course, the h/c-nette did not want to leave a bad impression to his future neighbors, so he put on a smile as he put his friend on hold.

"Ah, thank you very much, please do tell your mother that she shouldn't have"

"Ah where are manners? please wait a minute..."

M/n politely thanked the piss haired male, taking the basket full of food, turning around to open the front door but before he could invite the man in, he, the piss haired man was nowhere to be found.

M/n placed down the basket to the porch as he went out to look for any signs of the male but soon gave up.

"Shit!"

M/n cursed, suddenly remembering that he has his friend on hold, immediately pressing his phone with his ear and shoulder together.

"m/n-chan? m/n-chaaaan?!"

"Im here! I'm here...sheesh"

M/n replied, wincing from the high volume made by the man on the other line. Picking up the basket of goods, as he enters his new home.

"Why didn't you answer me the first time?"

"Because one of my neighbor greeted me"

He only heard a hum from him, as he set down the basket, and his phone. Putting it on speaker so he can move around without his hand to his ear the whole time.

He looked around as he examines every furniture, pretty good, they did a good job he thought to himself, he had the furnitures, and everything set up a week before his official arrival to this place.

The place used to be his grandparents' gift for his parents but they were had a different view for their family, leaving the building unkempt until m/n learned about it.

It took him over a year to convince his parents to let him live in the place. Mostly, because they were worried for his wellbeing.

"You know, m/n..."

The fore mentioned male stopped in his tracks, waiting for his friend's next words.

"We're missing you already..."

Ah, i feel bad...M/n felt a pang of guilt in his chest, it's those rare sullen moments he hated.

"Tetsu...i'm sorry but, i have my reasons"

"Then what is it? why can't i come with you? y'know it can be lonely there! since you don't know anyone there and-"

M/n cutted him off with a loud bang from his cupboard, it was silent. Both in his home, and between him and the call.

"I'm grateful for your concerns, but i am more than capable of handling myself"

M/n replied, more serious and firmer than earlier. That's when they both know that he isn't joking.

"Sigh, but if you ever get lonely, don't hesitate to call me okay? or even yaku, that gremlin's going to kill you if you don't"

The man dubbed as tetsu, gave up. He knew better than persuading him, they go way back, that's why.

"Yeah, thanks tetsu, talk to you later, i have to get some groceries"

"Yeah yeah, also! happy birthday!"

Oh right...my birthday....how could i forget.. A mere thought made his mood turn sour. He mumbled a thanks before ending the call, setting the phone down the counter as he raised himself high enough to sit at the kitchen top.

Observing his surroundings, a sad smile danced around his lips.

I should get some sleep, it's still pretty early the h/c-nette mumbled, jumping off of the table top as he picked his phone and made sure to lock the doors and his car keys before going towards his bedroom.

He collapsed on the bed, letting himself get lost in the cozy feeling of his blanket, and pillows. He opened his eyes once more to check the time.

I have to get groceries, and finish my application for my third year in inarizaki....

He mumbled to himself, unable to fight the urge to sleep, he let himself let go and entered a deep slumber.
