CHAPTER SEVENTEEN:

Kyojuro took a big gulp out of his drink, ensuring that he didn't spill a drop as he pours every bit of his unrequited feelings in that drink.

His Adam's apple bobbed with every quaff, and then he swung his cup down rather harshly on the wooden table.

Just beside him were his friends and colleagues, Gyomei Himejima, Giyu Tomioka, and Tengen Uzui.

While Gyomei and Giyu were minding their own businesses, casually sipping on their drinks as they watch Kyojuro drink his heart out, Tengen continued to fuel the fire in his heart.

As Kyojuro finished, Tengen poured another helping into his cup.

A cheerful smile was on his face as he nodded to the beat of the music that was wafting around them, "Another one! Another one!"

And Kyojuro did just that. He accepted the drink and chugged it down his throat, the burning alcohol tasted nothing but water to him now.

Giyu started to grow concerned for Kyojuro, and a little annoyed at Tengen as he kept feuling Kyojuro's drunken daze.

"Tengen, Kyojuro, you two have been drinking way to much. Maybe ease up a little." Giyu stated as a matter of fact, sipping on his drink afterwards.

Gyomei couldn't help but agree with Giyu's statement, a small sniffle escaping his lips as he chimed in, "Drinking too much alcohol could cause some serious liver problems. Drink some water, please."

Tengen merely scoffed at the two's precautionary statements, then waved a hand at them dismissively.

"He needs this! Kyojuro's been worked up since earlier, seriously! If you saw the look on his face when-"

Kyojuro quickly cut him off, "That's confidential information, Tengen." He sighed.

Giyu's had enough of the twos unreasonable actions, "Confidential information my ass. Why are you trying to drown yourself in alcohol?"

Kyojuro knew he could trust his colleague, he's known for quite some time now.

And he was certain that they would never belittle the confusing feelings he's been having.

Maybe some confiding would do some good for him.

Kyojuro proceeded to tell his friends about the unexpected feelings, the feelings he felt for one particular student that just transferred this semester.

A girl who's shine rivaled the sun's powerful rays, eyes shone brightly like the twinkling stars in the nights sky.

Her beaming smile that could turn Kyojuro's flaming heart, into a soft muck of slime.

He animatedly told them about the recent shenanigans and the things that he's done in order to make his presence known to (Y/N).

All the unnecessary actions he made just to let her know that he was there.
