Mitsuri had invited Obanai, Giyuu, and a couple others to a karaoke center as a sort of group party at the end of summer right before school started again. Obanai had only attended because Sanemi was going. Had he known that Giyuu was going to be there, he would've declined immediately. He didn't know how long he would last. Nevertheless, he didn't leave, gaze locked on Giyuu as the others went on singing. Giyuu was hovering by Shinobu, quiet and avoiding Obanai.

For the most part, they did avoid each other, making a point to not speak to one another. But as the night droned on, Obanai started feeling drowsy. At some point, he must've fallen asleep because next thing he knew, Giyuu was shaking him awake. Momentarily, Obanai's mind transported him to the past; Giyuu nudging him, pressing a kiss to his forehead as he murmured a tender "good morning". But then he remembered where he was and realized they were alone. He jolted up, the blood rushing to his head making him falter for a second.

"Where the fuck is everyone?" he asked, yawning.

Giyuu looked hesitant. "They left a while ago. You were asleep and you looked tired, so I offered to wake you in a bit. The others had to leave earlier and Tsutako is out so I could stay for longer today."

"Oh." Obanai paused, searching Giyuu's expression. Why would Giyuu offer to stay? Did he have something to say? He sincerely doubted Giyuu had simply wanted to watch over him. Not after initiating the break up. "Thanks."

Giyuu raised a shoulder, averting his eyes. "Were you tired? Or bored?" he asked. He was horrible at pretending he wasn't trying to avoid a topic. Obanai went along with it anyway, too wary to say anything about it.

"Both," Obanai conceded. "Singing's not really my thing. Only came because Shinazugawa did."

"Ah. Right." Giyuu bit his lip, glancing at him imploringly. "Uhm. It's been a while."

Obanai snorted, swinging his legs off the seat and grabbing his bag. "A while," he agreed. A couple months of ghosting each other, more like. They had broken up before summer, then Obanai had basically fucked up his health, cue the follow up of summer break. At least during the school year, when he was stuck in the hospital for weeks on end, he had homework to pore over, distracting him. But the break had not only introduced days of nothing to do but also more time to sink into a miserable existence with plans he and Giyuu had planned before but would never do now. If not for Sanemi's forceful care, Obanai would've probably been back at the hospital.

Giyuu shifted uncomfortably in the silence that followed. "I'm glad you're alright."

"Yeah? What made you think otherwise?" Obanai asked, though it was obvious. Who didn't know about Obanai's problems? It seemed like the whole school had found out somehow—rumors, no doubt, had spread despite Obanai not being particularly popular—so it would've been a surprise if Giyuu hadn't know.

"Some talk or other," hummed Giyuu, looking anywhere but at Obanai. He paused, finally shifting his gaze on him. "I was... worried. I heard from Shinazugawa."

"Oh." Obanai let out a breath. "Right."

He shouldn't have been surprised. Of course Sanemi would've kept Giyuu updated. Sanemi had probably worried second most about Giyuu and Obanai's break up, right after Obanai. That is, unless, Giyuu had cared. Which was doubtful. He looked fine, right? Still as beautiful as ev—no. Never mind that.

Obanai stood, holding the strap of his bag tightly. "We should go before this place closes."

Giyuu nodded, murmuring assent. "It is getting late."
