           Ryosuke Yamada is the kind of guy who loves to pull endless jokes, especially when he’s with his close friend, Hirai Yoshida. They grew up together like siblings and were never apart before.

             Hirai doesn’t take Ryosuke’s jokes that serious; the fact is, she knows how to handle Ryosuke very well. A lot of girls are flailing for Ryosuke but he never showed interest even once, which makes everything curious about him.

            “Yoshida-san~” Ryosuke called. He was killing some time inside the house of the Yoshida’s, and this is actually his usual pass time.

            Takashi Yoshida, the head of the Yoshida Household and Hirai’s father was at the living room together with Ryosuke.

            “What is it, Ryo?” he responded. The members of the family were already accustomed in calling Ryosuke ‘Ryo’.

            “Where’s Hirai?” he asked.

            “Oh, maybe she’s still upstairs, sleeping. She was working on something last night; I bet she was up until 2AM.” Takashi-san replied.

            “But Ryo-chan sure is early today here ne.” Youko Yoshida, Hirai’s mother said.

            “I wasn’t able to go back to sleep when I woke up~” he said and yawned.

            Ryosuke went upstairs to see if Hirai was already awake, but when he took a step inside her room, she was still on her bed and probably having wonderful dreams for she was smiling a bit.

            “Hirai~” Ryosuke called.

            “Hmm??” Hirai responded. She heard him.

            “Nothing~ I just want to sleep here too.” He said, finally climbing up to her bed.

            “Uhn.” She muttered and went back to sleep again.

He fell asleep beside her. She was in his arms, comfortably sleeping as he wrapped his arms around her, keeping her warm.

*After a few moments*

            “Nani koreee? Why is it—heavy?” Hirai mumbled as she slowly opened her eyes.

            She was shocked to see Ryosuke sleeping in her bed. It was his hand that was heavy since he was leaning onto her (more like he’s hugging her).

            “OI BUTA!?” Hirai yelled at Ryosuke.

            “Nani yo~???” he moaned; getting up with his messy hair.

            “How many times do I have to tell you that you can no longer sleep in my bed?!” she yelled once again.

            “What did I do???” he muttered.

            Hirai sighed, “What the—“ she uttered. “Ryosuke, listen. We’re no longer kids, we’re teenagers already. I know we’re best friends but we can’t act like how we were when we’re still kids.”

            “Ah. Okay okay… Don’t worry, I’ll marry you someday and we get to sleep in the same bed too.” He said randomly; he tried to pull a joke while going back to sleep.

            “RYOSUKE! Stop with that stupid joke of yours!” Hirai yelled again.

            “Onee-chan? So noisy huh?” Kyouko Yoshida, Hirai’s younger sister, said as she passed by her room.
