Kaito's birthday Barbeque.
I share a glance with Fubuki. I take a deep breath and knock on Kyoko's door.
Rin answers.
"New personal best, you waited 'til eleven to stop by and nobody climbed through the window." Rin chuckles.
"THAT WAS ONE TIME!" Fubuki pouts.
"We came over to see if you and Kyoko were ready for Kaito's surprise party. Mei, Ami and Nito' are already over there, setting up.
"Kyoko is almost ready." Rin says.
"Is that Aoi-chan?" Kyoko asks, running downstairs to look for herself, she's in a floaty magenta shirt and darkwash shorts, dragging a comb through her hair.
"Hey Kyo'!" I wave.
"Hey you guys." she beckons us in.
"She's surprisingly perky." Fubuki laughs.
"That's because she got to wake up on her own accord." Rin chides.
"Look what I got for Kaito for his birthday!" Kyoko exclaims, bounding downstairs. It's a photoframe, in it is a photo of Fubuki and Kaito from Mei's birthday. I laugh. "I also put some money in his card."
"I got him THESE!" Fubuki opens the box he has had tucked under his arm all day. Our jaws drop and we giggle.
"He's going to kill you Fubuki." Rin shoves the cognac eyed boy.
"Well what did you get him?" Fubuki asks.
"I got him a new rucksack because of what YOU did to the last one when we broke up for summer." Rin scoffs.
"Oh God Kaito was furious. There was pocket sweat everywhere!" I laugh.
"Including on, in and around his bag so I got him a green one from the same place I got my bag from." Rin shrugs.
"What did you get him Aoi?" Fubuki asks.
"Concert tickets." I grin. "Great score!"
"That band that Kai' loves?" Fubuki asks. I beam, nodding. "Kai's going to love you."
"I hope he enjoys the concert." I grin.
"Shall we go?" Rin asks.
We nod. Fubuki and Rin walk ahead, talking about nothing in particular.
"I love your outfit Aoi-chan!" Kyo' exclaims.
"You don't think it's too dressy. Mum told me that when she picks me up from Kaito's we're going somewhere nice too but I didn't want to be dressed up for Kaito's or dressed down for later." I explain.
"It looks amazing Aoi!" Kyoko assures. I sigh. My chosen outfit is a form fitting mint green sundress that goes out into frills from the mid thigh. It rests just above my knees.
"There's the house." Fubuki points. Instead of going through the front of the house, Katie-chan unlatches the back gate and joins Ami, Mei and Nito' in the garden. They are fastening balloons to the picnic table and setting up a CD player.
"He'll be here soon." Fubuki says, placing his present on the smaller picnic table and getting out the barbeque.
"Who's grilling?" Nito' asks.
"Not you Ai' or well be eating frozen burgers." Rin chuckles.
"It was one time Rin-senpai!" Nito' protests.
"I hope Kaito apperciates this!" Mei huffs, she is wearing a white bandeu shirt and gold shorts. Beside her is Ami-chan, dressed in a pretty spaghetti strap grey dress, it is somewhat similar to my own except hers has a cool patern on the hemline coming from the frills. Katie-chan giggles, her peach hair in a messy bun. Katie-chan is wearing a pair of darkwash shorts with a cream sort of sheer top and a white vest beneath it.
