Of Love and Regret

SUMMER

Beta-ed by Alitheia13. It's a one-shot, senpai... You know how I'll feel if it another series... =_=||

Rain keeps falling down, not minding whether there were still people who have found a shelter or not. The dark night was so gloomy, not even a spark of light from the star above makes their presence for the world to see. All covered by a thick ugly grey cloud that keeps falling with the sky’s tears. However, the sky was not the only one who was crying.

Two small figures blurred by the bullets of rainwater, standing and facing towards each other at an old but beautiful waterless fountain. They seem to be having an intense conversation. One with crying tears and the other with a sad expression mixed with guilt.

In the heavy rain, the latter smiled and mouthed something to the former before walking away with a heavy heart, leaving the former standing alone while outstretching unreached hand towards the direction.

“Come on. You’re so late, Gaku.” A pale pink hair teenage boy grumbled.

Two males standing at a train station, (un)patiently wait for a certain someone to show up. A brunette could only fanning him with using both of his hands. Trying his best to cool his impatient heat down—, which he assumed it was because of the summer heat consuming the other’s patience. The train station was not so crowded compared to the usual day. Most people choose to stay at their home and relax under an opened air-conditioner.

“Wait for another second, Tenn.” The brunette mumbled under his breath, loud enough for his friend to hear it. “I’m sure he’s on the way coming.”

“But it has been an hour and 20 minutes late, Ryu.” Tenn raised his voice in frustration.

They both turned around upon hearing a sound of footsteps coming closer towards them. A light silver hair male running with a travel bag placed securely on his back. He was nearly bumped with a woman if not because of her fast reflect to step away from his way. Tenn crossed his arms when Gaku has finally reached to them, panting and showered both of them with a bunch of sorry. Ryu smiled and ushered them to the waiting place.

This summer holiday, the three of them has planned to go to travel out of the busy city of Tokyo to more peace and calm atmosphere in a small town. Ryu has insisted for them to go to a village, which has a mountain and hills. He said he has been wanting to see them and so, the other two agreed. Brought only some clothes and basic needs, they head off to the village using the train.

Gaku looked up towards the pure blue sky; blazing sunshine covered everything on earth. He squinted his eyes to properly watching the birds flying freely, following the direction of the train with its friends. Besides him, Ryu was checking on the map he brought, making sure to remember the jotted red marks before looking up and smiled towards the light pink hair. Gaku was confused by the act as he turned his head, following Ryu’s line of view. Sits across of them, Tenn leaned his head at the window; eyes shut, seemingly sleeping by seeing the teen slow breathing pattern.

Now, it’s Gaku’s turn to smile. Seeing something that was so unusual from Tenn relieved him slightly. Tenn’s face looks so peaceful compared to the usual frown or the casual emotionless face he make. The silver haired teen couldn’t help himself to take one or two picture of the sleeping teen and showed it to Ryu who nodded in satisfies. They both know what to do with the picture later on.
