~After the Rain~ (Soramafu)

The First Raindrops

As I looked on the papers with my dark brown eyes, I searched for my own name and really hoped to get into a class with my friends. After a short while I found my name. "Kain" - It stood right beneath the name of my friend Sou.

I felt like my heart skipped a beat as i realized that he was in my class. I really liked him a lot, even though I thought he didn't think the same way as me. For him I probably was just someone who was with Soraru and Mafumafu - Nothing more, nothing less. I erased that thought as I started to feel a bit sad about the current situation.

While I was still a bit absent with my mind, I went to my new classroom. I still think it was a miracle that I didn't run into someone else on the way. As I went in the classroom my eyes unconsciously started to search for Sou.

When I found him sitting on the window I couldn't do anything else, then thinking how sweet he looked in his new uniform. I mean he's so short that it didn't suit him at all. I thought he hated the uniform because of that, but I only thought that he looked admirable in it. My own uniform suited me really well, but with my black hair and my dark brown eyes I looked just ordinary. Nothing special like him.

A small smile came to my lips as I thought that I was for sure the only one how thought so. The other ones definitly thought something like "He's a boy and so short... That's really hard for him." or something like "Poor boy, his girlfriend will perhaps be bigger than him." or something similar. But that didn't really cared me. But I knew that Sou's opinion probably was different. At that point I decided to end this thought and greet him.

So I wandered to him and said with a little smile on my face, "Hello." He looked a bit surprised as he replied, "Good morning, Kain." I sat myself next to him and wondered what he was thinking about while he looked out of the window. With a "How are you?" he interrupted my thoughts and I just answered, "I'm fine. Thank you." I could hear in his voice that he wasn't in a good mood today and I exactly knew why. I immediately stopped to think about this. It only would make me depressed again.

I smiled a bit and looked to him. "I'm glad that we are together in this class", I said. He didn't even look at me as he said, "I'm glad, too." That was a lie. I sighed and looked to the front of the room. I really looked forward to the lunch break. I could hang out with Soraru and Mafumafu and the most important: Sou's mood would get much better.

Nothing exciting happened in the first lesson and I was glad when it ended. I took my Bento and went to the rooftop. I exactly knew that Soraru and Mafumafu would be there. It was always like that. I heard steps behind me while I went upstairs - Sou's steps. In front of the door, I stopped and looked back to him.

"Are you following me?" I said with a little grin. "I just want to see Mafumafu" he replied. He sighed. "I'm sorry, It's just not my day." He explained. "It's ok. Everyone has bad days.",  I answered. "Thank you", He said as he went ahead of me.

I went out of the door and saw a black haired and a blond guy sitting on the ground while eating sandwiches.They looked at me and started to smile a bit. I walked to them and sat next to them. As Sou said: "Hello Guys.", he sat down next to Mafumafu and offered him something from his self made lunch. He looked really happy. Somehow I felt jealous.
