Sweet Secret Smile ー THE RAMPAGE from EXILE TRIBE.

ー Part 5.

Time flies so fast that they didn't notice that it is already the third day of the school festival. Everything is going well except for Hokuto and Iwasho's friendship. He is trying to talk to Iwasho but Iwasho keeps on avoiding him. He felt that he lost a friend, most likely a bestfriend.

"Did you two fight?" Makoto suddenly asked him.

"I hurt him." He mumbled and then, he went back to work. He made himself busy with work so that he will be able to forget temporarily what happened between them.

"Hoku-chan!!" His eyes widened when he heard those familiar words. He turned around and saw his old classmates running towards him. He chuckled softly as he felt those tight hugs from them.

"We missed you! How are you? Ah! You're wearing a maid costume again!" His friends laughed, making him feel a bit embarrassed.

"They made me wear this." He said and then, he assisted them inside the cafe. After getting his friends' orders, he went to Itsuki and Makoto to give the orders.

"Your friends?" Itsuki asked and he nodded. He looked at them again and smiled.

"They are the ones who made me wear maid costume when we were in middle school. I'll introduce them to you two later." He chuckled and went back to his old classmates.

"It looks like you have some good-looking friends. Mind to share them to us?" One of his girl classmates teased him.

"Which one? The tall or the taller?" He laughed softly but he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Hokuto." It was Riku. He quickly stood up, not knowing what to do first.

"Ah. Riku, these are my friends from middle school." He introduced each of his friends to Riku, feeling nervous and thinking if he did something wrong since Riku is suddenly there, looking for him.

"Is there any problem?" He asked to Riku after introducing his friends.

"Let's talk for a bit." Riku said and he nodded. He gestured to his friends that he will go out for a bit and they nodded about it.

"What do you want to talk about?" The two went to the rooftop but Riku locked the door and suddenly pinned him on the wall.

Riku started to kiss him deeply and he can't even struggle since he also like it. He slowly wrapped his arms around Riku's nape and then, Riku carried him by his thighs, wrapping it around his waist. Riku suddenly broke the kiss and looked for a comfortable place. He saw some chairs at the corner, so he took one and sat there.

"Riku, I still need to go back there.." Hokuto mumbled with a tomato face. He can't believe that Riku will just go there in their cafe to drag him to the rooftop and make out with him.

"But my body needs you, my heart needs you." Riku mumbled and placed a deep kiss on his lips again. He gently caressed Hokuto's thigh, lifting the skirt of his costume. His hand traveled to his inner thighs, making Hokuto shiver. Hokuto can't keep on the kiss, so he leaned his head back and stared at Riku with his tomato face. He placed his hands on his chest, still shivering because of Riku's touches under the skirt of his costume.

"Riku, we're still in school and I'm still not telling you my answer.." He quickly said those so that Riku will stop from touching him.

"Ah. I almost forgot that. I'm sorry." Riku quickly pulled his hand out from his costume and cleared his throat.

"I need to go back there now." He said softly, standing up from Riku's lap. He fixed his costume and quickly ran back to the cafe without even looking at Riku.

"Is he mad?" Riku mumbled.

Last day of school festival. After cleaning up everything that afternoon, all the students had their rest by having a party in the gymnasium. Hokuto wore a simple white shirt and black pants, making him look so plain. When Makoto and Itsuki saw him, they shook their heads and dragged him to their room.

After almost half an hour of transformation, Hokuto went out of their room with the two. Hokuto is now wearing a black tight pants with black thick shirt designed with black and white stripes at the right side and pure black on the left side. Makoto put some gel on Hokuto's hair, making it look like a sleek one. And then, as his footwear, Itsuki made him wear a fashion shoes.

"You need to be fashionable enough when you go to a party." The two said to him, making him shrug his shoulders.

When the three arrived at the gymnasium, they saw Iwasho having fun with their other classmates. Hokuto wanted to talk to him but when he saw him being happy with their other classmates, he let Iwasho have fun instead of ruining his mood.

Hokuto almost forgot that he will tell to Riku his answer already. He got his phone from his pocket and sent him a message that he will go to the rooftop already. His friends are almost drunk already when he left to go to the rooftop. He had some alcohol but he doesn't want to get drunk.

When he arrived at the rooftop, Riku is not yet there but there's a couch and some pillows and a blanket there. It looks like someone put those already before he went there. He looked down from the rooftop and saw that most of the students is now going back to the dormitory.

"Hokuto." When he heard that, he quickly turned around and saw Riku there and seems a bit drunk.

"Riku, you're drunk?" He asked first but Riku shook his head. He released a relieved sigh and walked closer to him.

"What is your answer?" Riku suddenly asked but deep inside, he is so nervous that his heart is beating so fast. He can't explain what does he really feel that time.

"I like you, too, Riku." His world suddenly stopped when he heard those words from Hokuto. He is not dreaming, right?

"I'm not dreaming, right?" He asked and Hokuto chuckled softly, cupping his cheeks gently.

"You're not dreaming. It's real. It's all real." Hokuto mumbled with a sweet smile.

A smile slowly formed on his lips, pulling Hokuto to him, hugging him tightly. He doesn't know what he will do if he got rejected. He felt so happy. He quickly placed a gentle and sweet kiss on his new lover's lips, sealing their new relationship.
