"Hey, Ai?"

Nitori sat in his dorm room, picking at his socks and at the fluffy but old carpet. He looked up at his roommate, Rin, and smiled. "Mmhm?"

Rin sat up from his bed and rested his elbows on his legs, itching his right cheek. "It's Haru's birthday real soon, and I have no idea what to get him."

Nitori's heart sank a little. Haru and Rin have had a history together, and Nitori walked in on them doing the dirty multiple times. It crushed the small boy, but he knew it wasn't Rin's fault. He didn't he about his little childhood crush thing going on, so all Nitori could do about it was suppress and move on.

"Hmm.. He likes water, and is really passionate about swimming. So maybe new trunks?"

"Haru is insanely attached to the suit he's got now. I swear, he's patched them up so many times. I can't even remember when he got them they're so old now!" Rin chuckled.

Nitori nibbled his bottom lip, finger resting on his chin. He hummed, but nothing came to his mind. He didn't know Haru very well anyways, so it confused him as to why Rin came to him about it. Maybe because he's the only one in the room.

"Ai," Rin started and stood up, walking towards the bathroom. "I'm gonna have a quick shower and then go to the mall near campus. There's bound to be something. I'd appreciate if you came, but I see you're... busy."

Nitori blushed and stopped picking at his socks. He stood up, nodded and went to his wardrobe, going through his clothes as Rin turned the shower on.

"Hey! Are we ready?" Rin shouted, grabbing his keys, phone and wallet from his bed. "Hellooo?"

Nitori appeared from the bathroom, his damp hair from the sink clipped back with a butterfly clip.

Rin sniggered and gestured to the clip. "Why?"

"M-my skin... My forehead. It broke out," The boy stuttered, pointing to the small red dots on his forehead. "I thought the air would be good for it before Haru's party next week!"

Rin smiled and shrugged, "It suits you."

"Th-thank you..."

-

They soon arrived at the mall, and due to Ai's anxiety he stayed extremely close to Rin. Rin was used to this by now, and his care for the younger boy made him make sure he was okay by gently brushing their shoulders together whenever they go out, almost the remind him that he's there.

Nitori looked around at the big mall. He jumped whenever someone bumped into him, but Rin's small smile and his mere presence reminded Nitori that he's safe and okay.

"So, where to?" Rin said, eyeing the Starbucks.

"Well, Haru-chan likes reading, right?" Nitori voiced, completely unaware of Haruka's likes and dislikes. He was praying Rin would just get on his way and it would be a small trip, but it seemed that wasn't on the agenda.

Rin noticed the Waterstones on the level above them. "He's never said anything to me that's against reading, so I guess?"

They made their way up the level and in the Waterstones. Nitori went straight to the manga, while Rin tagged behind and browsed the surrounding books.

Rin watched the way Nitori carefully pulled out each manga, his pale slender fingers wrapping themselves around the spine. He watched his eyes light up when he saw the Naruto manga. It was his favourite. Rin had spent countless nights up with Nitori watching it, talking about it just to help the boy forget about his problems.
