Lights Down Low

Turn the Lights Down Low

There was since a week the players who join the official Japan Team were chosen. Soon the players would be reunited to travel to the official lodge at Mount Fuji's foothills. The chosen players were excited and anxious to meet their new teammates and handle new challenges. Their opponents will be the rest of the world.

Each boy prepared himself as they could, keeping the soccer trainings or just relax doing their hobbies. Kidou wasn't the different one, he decided to take the day to practice piano. He learned to play when he was just a child and then he played all time he could. When he joined the National Soccer Committee, help Seishou team became his priority, so he stopped play piano.

His fingers ended to tread the last notes of the 40th Mozart Symphony when his phone pulsed at the table right on his side. Curious about it, Kidou opened the chat app and found a message from his Seishou's purple haired friend.

Orio: Yo! Captain want to reunite the team and make a farewell party for you and Haizaki at his house, 05:00pm

The red eyes went through the message. He really wanted to say goodbye to his teammates and the team parties were always funny. He didn't hesitate to give an affirmative answer.

Me: Sounds good to me. I'll be there.

On the town's other side, a purple haired boy was telling his captain they have another confirmed to their party.

-Nice! This party will be amazing! - the bluish answered, trying to equilibrate too many packaging in his arms – Eiji, can you give me a hand?

The redhead was finishing to choose the cheese skewers, putting them in the supermarket trolley and then looked to his friend. Since the last day, when Mizukamiya had the idea of the party, he can't stay quiet and tried to do so much things at the same time. It was very difficult to him let Orio deal with the party's invitations to their teammates.

The redhead approached the bluish and take some packaging off his arms, putting them in the supermarket trolley near to the cheese skewers. Shortly thereafter, Mizukamiya put the remaining packagings there.

-Who didn't answer the invitation? - he asked Orio who was typing something on his phone.

-Ah, Satome said he will ask his mother and Haizaki didn't see the message yet. - the purple haired boy said, seeing his bluish friend's smile getting away his face.

-Oh, ok. Just tell me when he answer.

The smaller one nodded, exchanging worried glances with Eiji. There was some time since they began to suspect Mizukamiya fall for Haizaki and, in fact, their relationship was sure to be succeed because Haizaki seems to feel the same. The only problem was they were too shy to confess their feelings to each other. Anyway, that party would be the last opportunity for they both met before Haizaki travel. Orio and Eiji knew the bluish would be sorrowful if the attacker didn't come.

-So, all right here. - Mizukamiya check some items on his phone's list while Eiji put soda bottles in the trolley. - Now only fruits and vegetables are missing, after that we can pay it.

The three friends went to another section of the supermarket. First they chose some fruits, don't forgetting the watermelon and then they chose vegetables. Lastly they paid and went to Mizukamiya's house. He had talked with his parents last day and they let him give a party in their house as long as he cleaned everything after that.
