(Ichimatsu POV)

"Haha! Osomatsu-niisan, I win again! Muscle, Muscle! Hustle, Hustle!" Jyushimatsu yelled. He had just won yet another game of arm wrestling against Osomatsu. He celebrated and was ridiculously loud while doing it but I've gotten used to it. There's no point in complaining.

It was the middle of the day on a weekday- so naturally everyone was home. Jyushi and Osomatsu were sitting across from each other at the table. Choromastu was on the couch reading, probably some lame book on how to be a dick. Todomatsu was on his phone, ignoring us, as always. Shitty- ahem- Karamatsu was too busy checking himself out in the mirror. (I think I caught him making kissy faces at himself. So. Painful.) And me? I was sitting in the corner, wishing the roof would cave in.

"No fair, my hand was too sweaty, okay? Let's go again! Redo! Redo!" Osomatsu pleaded, leaning over the table. I don't know why he keeps trying. Probably to uphold his reputation as "leader". Too bad Jyushimatsu is unbelievably strong. He's like the Hulk but filled with happiness instead of anger. I wonder where he gets all that energy from.

"I'm sure you'll win this round Oso!" Todomatsu sarcastically commented, looking up from his phone.

"Shut up! I'm serious this time!"

"I thought you were serious three games ago?"

"But now I really mean it!"

I've had enough of all this noise. I silently stood and began to exit through the shoji doors.
"Ichimatsu, since you're up, can you take the trash outside?" Choromastu called, not even taking his gaze off of his book.

"I'm already taking myself outside, why ask?" I mumbled, picking up the actual trash bag. Choromastu ignored my self-depreciating comment and nodded.

After putting out the garbage, I decided to go for a walk. "Maybe I'll find some stray cats." I hoped. Cats were the only things that actually comforted me.

"Little Brother! Wait up!" Karamastu yelled, jogging after me. My day somehow managed to get worse and worse every passing minute.

"Ugh, what do you want Shittymatsu? Your existence is painful enough.", I groaned. Maybe if he took his head out of his ass for once he wouldn't be so... irritating. Annoying. Painful.

Karamastu grinned, most likely trying to hide his hurt feelings," Ha! No need for insults, Ichi. I'm just going into town and thought I should tag along with you."

I scoffed and kept walking. "Whatever. Just don't talk to me, Shittymatsu."

Karamastu dramatically pulled down his tacky sunglasses and sighed, "All of you are so mean to me. Alas, I suppose it is easier to love humanity than to love one's own brother."

Karamastu's cheesy lines finally got on my last nerve. I turned around and swung at him, punching him square in the face. "Shut up! Gah, you're so annoying!"

Shittymatsu fell to the ground and chuckled weakly, "Though violence may 'solve' one problem, you've planted the seeds for ano- huh? What's that?" He pointed to my arm.

Fuck.

My jacket sleeve had rolled up when I punched him.

He saw them.

Fuck.

"Ichimatsu.." Kara said carefully, "What happened to your arm?"

"N-nothing." I pulled the sleeve down quickly.

"But Ichi-"

"I said it's nothing."

"I'm serious-"

"Just forget it, okay! Leave me alone." I stomped away. That was close. Too close.

I sat on the park bench, petting a cat. Karamastu was no where in sight but I couldn't stop thinking about what happened. What if he told everyone? I bet they're all home now, waiting for Ichimatsu The Freak to come back. I'm such trash. Garbage. Scum.
