As the training camp came to an end, it was time for Nekoma to return to Tokyo. Shibayama had decided to bring Mochi, their beloved feline companion, with him. However, before they parted ways, Shibayama couldn't resist a playful tease, one that would leave both teams and Kuguri surprised.

With a mischievous glint in his eye, Shibayama knelt down and held Mochi's paws up, waving them in front of Kuguri. He playfully exclaimed, "Say goodbye to daddy, Mochi!"

Kuguri blinked in surprise, not expecting Shibayama's antics, but he decided to play along. With a playful smirk, he replied, "Take care of mommy, Mochi."

The unexpected exchange left both Nekoma and Nohebi teams baffled. They hadn't expected to witness such a lighthearted moment between Kuguri and Shibayama, and the teasing tone in their voices had taken them by surprise.

Shibayama wasn't done yet. With a grin, he brought Mochi's furry face close to Kuguri's cheek, prompting the cat to give him a playful kiss. Then, before Kuguri could react, Shibayama leaned in and planted a quick peck on Kuguri's lips. It was a playful, impulsive gesture that left Kuguri chuckling in response.

Shibayama, giggling with a mischievous glint in his eye, quickly rose and ran toward the waiting bus, Mochi in tow. He knew that his bold display of affection had left both teams stunned, and he couldn't resist having a bit of fun.

As Shibayama boarded the bus, his teammates eagerly inquired about the exchange. Shibayama simply laughed it off and told them it was a parting joke. Little did they know that his playful antics were a reflection of the deep and hidden connection he shared with Kuguri.

Kuguri, standing there with a fond smile, waved to Shibayama as the bus departed. He knew that their love was a not much of a secret and they would share  this with the world, but at least , they now have cherished moments they had stolen during this unforgettable training camp.

And as the bus rolled away, Shibayama, holding Mochi in his arms, couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and contentment. Their love story had endured the challenges of the training camp, and it had only grown stronger. They both knew that their love was worth every secret smile, every stolen moment, and every playful tease.
