BAREFACED

Chapter 111

Mikey stops his bike at the bottom of the stairs to the shrine. You look up the stairs and slowly get off the bike. Mikey parks his bike to the side and walks up the stairs, motioning you to follow him. You follow behind him.

"Remember the first time we were here." He laughs. You furrow your eyebrows and sigh a bit. He laughs more. "Were you scared that day?" He asks. You look down at the steps while walking up them.

"I don't know... I don't know if I was more scared for my friends or-" You furrow your eyebrows trying to remember. You both make it to the top of the stairs.

"YUKI!" Peh-yan shouts. You look to see everyone. Mitsuya is smiling at you. Draken is standing beside him. Draken is wearing the bear with the orange heart keychain on his jacket. Baji is standing beside Chifuyu. And Hakkai is standing on the other side of Mitsuya. You smile at all of them. Mikey leads you to them.

"Augh... If I knew you were leaving I would of asked to hang out with you more." Hakkai sighs. You slightly smile. "You okay though?" He asks.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean... you're going so far... aren't you sad?" He asks.

"Yeah... Kinda..." You softly say. Everyone looks at you. Mikey leans towards you.

"Then you should stay..." Mikey softly says. You slowly look at him, furrowing your eyebrows.

"I'm still going to go." You sigh. Mikey sighs and then smiles.

"So why did you guys want to have the party here?" You ask.

"Oh- it's not going to be here." Chifuyu replies. Baji smacks Chifuyu in the back of his head. You look at the two of them confused. Mitsuya smiles and laughs awkwardly. 

"We wanted to do something here first... then we plan on going somewhere to get some hot pot."

"Oooo... hot pot- sounds yummy." You bubble. Mitsuya smiles.

All of you gather around a tree. You stand still, confused to why you all are standing there.

"Sooo..."

"I wanted to do a time capsule." Baji implies.

"A time capsule?" You question. Baji nods. "To remember Toman... and everyone involved... so I told everyone to bring something... and then, I have some paper so that we can all write to our future selves."

"... to bring something?" You look at Baji confused.

"..." Baji looks at you confused.

"I'm guessing Mikey forgot to tell you." Mitsuya awkwardly chuckles. 

"Oh- right... heheh" Mikey stands still. You slowly look at Mikey who smiles at you. Baji sighs and shakes his head. 

"Whatever... you don't have to put something in there... it would have been nice if you did but it's alright. Writing the letter to yourself is the more important part." Baji says handing you a paper. "Just write what you want, put your name on it and then put it in the box. You nod as Chifuyu hands you a pencil. You walk to a spot where there is a hard enough surface. 

What should you write to your future self? 

After a few minutes of writing you place the paper in the envelope and write your name on the envelope. Mikey sits beside you and leans towards you, looking at the envelope.

"What did you write down?" Mikey asks. You look at him and then softly smile.

"I'm not telling you." You laugh. Mikey sighs and then smiles.
