Third p.o.v
The ringing tone of phone fills the air as he walks further, joining the bustling sounds of the city. His company? He silently asks himself and picks up his phone, not entirely ready for an annoying voice at the other line.
"Your free right now?"
"I'm not free." He answers, his eyebrow twitching a bit.
"We're having a picnic under the cherry blossoms, but you'll come, too, right? Okay, got it. Later." Tsubaki hangs up before he can say anything.
What the hell. "Cherry blossoms...." He mumbles under his breath, his thoughts seemingly somewhere else. "I just went to see them the other day with people from work."And I said that, but here I'm anyway. He sighs at his own thoughts. Couldn't resist of a certain boy. Man. As he looks up his breath is caught in his throat for a moment. He's fucked, isn't he? He glances just as the said boy starts laughing at the antics of Wataru. He looks happy as he laughs.
Yuri p.o.v
Holy moly, this is so beautiful. I still look around me in awe after we sat down. There weren't any cherry blossoms in America, so this was one of the things I missed the most. There's only thing that bothers me a bit.~ My sister ~
~ I love you like crazy! ~
~ Are you okay with it if it's just a nice peck? ~Tsubaki. Singing about his sister...He really just sees me as someone to fuck with when he can't do that with a certain girl. My mood damps as I think. I can't think that badly of someone! Heads up, Yuri!
"Oh, Natsume." Says Azusa all of the sudden. Huh? I look up. Natsume!~ I'm sorry... I want to hold you tight ~
"Welcome, Nat!" Wataru is cheerfully like always. I smile softly. At least he didn't chance his attitude and even started to call me onii-chan.
"Took you awhile you get here."
"You guys are pretty far gone already. It looks like you would've done fine without me." He looks to the side, where Tsubaki is singing with a blade of grass in his hand.~ I'll take on even the sorrow, the pain! ~
"Oh, no, you don't. It's not everyday we have these events. So participate as much as you can." Azusa smiles knowingly at him.
~ Entrust it all to me right this moment ~
"You already lack the cooperative spirit as it is because you live alone." He lives alone...Makes sense actually.
~ Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! I need your love ~
I cringe at Tsubaki's choice of words. I wish he wouldn't sing about Ema that way. "Yes, yes. The cooperative spirit, huh?" Finally done with singing, he says his goodbye and leaves, finally coming to join us.
"Sheesh. He's older, but he's as noisy as ever. As they say, 'What is learned in the cradle...Right?" I giggle, grabbing a cup of drinking for him.
"Y-You're right about that, Natsume. Here you a-are. Please." I hold it out towards me, giving me a small smile of gratitude.
"Thank you." He was probably busy with his company.
"I-I'm sorry to jump this cherry blossom picnic o-on you when you're busy." I fold my hands in my lap.
"Nah." Oh, right. I turn around, ready to grab my self made karaage fried chicken as someone else grabs it before me. My eyes trail up to the face of....Ema.
I nibble on my under lip, hesitating to call her out or let it be. But she already answers for me. "Help yourself. All the food here is store-bought, though." She gives him a happy smile as she holds out the chicken towards him.
Nobody really notices it and with a sigh my shoulder slouch and I sit back.
"Then..." He grabs one and takes a bite. I glance sideways and see that Ema is looking at him with an expectant look in her eyes.
"What're you looking at me like you're worried for? It's good." He sips from his drink again. "I'm glad. That's such a relief." She sighs happily.
I stand up, not feeling well anymore and grab a few bags.
"W-We're out of drinks." Is my only explanation as I turn around, ready to buy more.Third p.o.v
He stares at the paper on the door for a moment. Seriously?To Subaru!!
Dinner is a picnic under the cherry blossoms at the park!"Freaking message me." He mumbles, turning around.
Yuri p.o.v
Those stairs are long. I sigh, my thoughts trailing of to the events that happened. "You...Alone?" Ask a voice. Wait...Subaru!
"A-Ah, yes. We were running low on d-drinks, so..." I hope this doesn't get awkward. "Then I'll help." He says curtly, turning around again. Oh!
"O-Oh, but I can't ask that from y-you." He probably just came back from practice. "I figured you could use a hand."
I quickly match his steps. Holy moly he takes huge steps.
"Come to think of it, where's that little guy? The one that's always with you."
"I-It's a girl, and I let her at home, because J-July has food poisoning so she can watch over h-him."Why does he want to carry all the bags? I ask myself. He declined when I suggested if I could carry a bag, too. Almost refusing to let me carry it.
I almost let out a huff in annoyance. I'm not that weak.
"I-Isn't it heavy?"
"No." An awkward silence falls over us. I don't know what to say....
"You know..." He suddenly starts and of surprise I almost stumble over a branch.
"Yes?" Saved.
"About what I said that other day..." When is he going to stop with the apologies? "Hmmm."
"My next game...Come see for sure, okay?" I pause in surprise and part my lips to say, but he isn't done yet. "I...Want to win I front of you." With that a silence falls again, but this time...It isn't as awkward as first.
I look to the side and this time pause for real. What's Wataru doing? And walk towards him so I can keep an eye on him, because he's a bit reckless.
I don't notice that Subaru walks further, also seemingly not noticing that I walk away from him.
