5: The Party

Well, today's the day. It's currently 5:00pm, Saturday. I promised my friends that I'd go out with them to a party and try to have a good time. I'm kind of staring to regret my decision.

I step into the shower and all these thoughts start running through my head: what if I get kidnapped, what if I get drugged, what if I die??. Its okay Keith just calm down. After what seemed like 5 minutes actually being 15 minutes. I step out of the shower.

I decide to go casual and I wear a red t-shirt with some black pants. I wait for Hunk to show up with everyone else.

Some time passes by and I hear a honk outside which I assume to be Hunk.

"MOM IM GOING OUT TO A PARTY WITH SOME FRIENDS ILL BE BACK LATER!," I yell toward my mom upstairs. "ALRIGHT KEITH BE SAFE AND HAVE YOUR PHONE WITH YOU," she yells back.

After a short drive we arrive at a huge house. There was loud music that you could hear from outside and the house was flooding with neon lights. As we step in I know I won't have a good time.

"C'mon Keith come have some fun, dance with us," says Lance. "Dancing really isn't my thing," I say. "Fine just go have fun, do something, this is a once in a lifetime experience," he tells me. He then disappears into the crowd of dancers. I regret coming here.

Takashi's POV

I arrived to Paola's party. It seemed the same as any other year. Loud music, flashing lights, and lots of alcohol.

As I'm sitting around talking to my friends I see a familiar face. It's the new kid. He seems to have come with some friends but they are no where in sight. He's on his phone, most likely playing a game to pass the time.

Keith's POV

The room is starting to feel hot and crowded. I'm not able to breath. I'm gonna go step outside. But what if my friends can't find me. Oh they'll probably just call me.

I proceeded to walk outside. I felt relieved. It felt better to be in a less crowded area. I should've never came. I don't even like parties or any social event for that matter.

As I'm sitting outside I hear someone open the door and sit next to me... It's Takashi. "Hey," he tells me. "Oh, hey," I reply. "What are you doing out here?," he asks me. "Well my friends dragged me to the party even though they knew I hate parties. I don't like being with crowds." "Oh, I'm sorry," he says. "No it's okay. I'll probably just call a cab to pick me up or something." "Oh, I can take you home if you'd like, I kind of don't want to be here either," he offers. "Oh, thanks." "The name is Takashi by the way, but my friends call me 'Shiro'," he tells me.

Shiro, huh? It has a nice ring to it

"What a shame to let the night go to waste," I say sighing. "It doesn't have to be a complete waste," says Shiro. "Do you like video games," he asks. "Of course I do!," I say. He chuckles.

Takashi's POV

I just asked him if he likes video games and he does! How great.

"Do you like pizza?," I ask. "Of course I freaking love pizza," he says. Wow he's so cute. I find my self staring a little. "Um... would you like to come over and play video games? I know we just met each other and all but-," as I speak he cuts me off, "Of course I'd love to," he says.

I can feel my face starting to heat up. We stop at a pizza place called "Slav's Pizza" we pick up a large pepperoni and sausage pizza. We go on our way to my house.

As we arrive I look at the clock 9:57pm. We have plenty of time. My parents are gone for the weekend so they won't mind unless I clean up. We walk upstairs into my room. I set down the pizza on the bed.

"You have a really nice house," says Keith. "Thanks, it's usually like this because my parents aren't around much." "Oh I see..."

Keith's looks uncomfortable in those clothes so I toss him a black adidas sweatshirt and some shorts that fit me small. "You can change into those if you want, you look uncomfortable in those clothes," I say. "T-thanks, Shiro," says Keith. I can see his face turn a little red.

As he's changing I ready the TV to play some video games. I recently got a Nintendo Switch so I thought I could try it out with him.  As he's changing I decide to change into more comfortable clothes myself. He comes out of the bathroom and I tell him to sit beside me. I hand him a JoyCon and we start playing.

We play for hours laughing and being competitive. We talked with each other for a while and I feel like I got to know him more. But this feeling... do I... like him. I mean it can't be because he's a guy. I don't know what to think.

We play for hours straight and when I check the time I realize it's 3:00am it's a little late to be driving out. I notice that Keith is beginning to look tired. I go into the bathroom and when I come back I see that he fell asleep. I grab his phone and go over to his messages. I click on "Momma" which I assume to be his mom. I start typing. "Hi, this is Keith's friend. I just wanted to let you know that your son needed a ride home but I asked him if he wanted to hang out at my place. We played until I realized it got late. He fell asleep here. I'll take him home when he wakes up. - Takashi Shirogane, 1 (XXX) XXX-XXXX

I laid down next to him since he did fall asleep on my bed. I didn't realized he looked so adorable when he slept. I turned off the light and slowly drifted to sleep.
