chapter 1 - first day of exams

~ 16th dec, monday. 7:09 am ~

the day of the exams are finally here. shirabu can't wait to relax, after all these monstrosities.

shirabu sat on his desk and opened his book, memorizing the part he had trouble with again. this kid stayed up all night just to study.

he saw the teacher come in and pull out a file from her big ass bag. shirabu inhaled as he readed out the part he was reading and closed his book.

he closed his eyes one he felt the exam papers being placed right infront of him.
'alright shirabu kenjirou, pull yourself together. you can do it.' he took a deep breath and shot his eyes open.

he carefully examined the questions and was proud to say, he knew all of them. this made him confident as he smirked and filled out his name.

now, he was sure to pass.

shirabu was relieved that the first day were over. five more to go. he sighs as he walks to practice and bumped into his annoying, purple-haired kouhai. shirabu scowled when he saw his face.

"s-shirabu-senpai!" goshiki called, "what do you want?"

"how'd your exam go?" he asked politely, shirabu smirked.

"why do you wanna know?"

"well.. i-.. i think i sorta, kinda? failed..?" goshiki said, sweat running down his face.

"pft, as expected." shirabu chuckled evily and continued walking for practice.

"atleast give some confidence!" goshiki whined, the copper haired male only rolled his eyes and ignored him. goshiki pouted.

"morning." shirabu said rather lazily, "morning!" goshiki said rather enthusiastically.

"morning!" the club said, "ohoho, what's this?! we rarely see lil' tsutomu and shirabu walking together to practice~ what happened hereee?~" of course tendou said, acting like it was a big deal.

"i didn't, this airhead bumped into me." shirabu pointed at the younger male.

"m-mean!" he said, "goshiki." shirabu said.

"y-yes?" he stuttered.

"shut the fuck up."

they continued practice like usual and normally. well, except that tendou wouldn't stop bothering his kouhai's. taichi tried to stop him, give this kid a break. tendou ended up almost getting kicked out of practice, poor guy.

practice ended like usual. shirabu was putting on his shoes back after changing, and apparently he was too slow so taichi went ahead of him. just when he was about to leave, a certain guy pulled his wrist, signaling him to turn around.

he turned around and therefore he saw semi eita before his eyes, "semi-san?" he said in unison. they were rivals, yes but they still appreciate each other. still, it was rare to see both of them having a conversation without fighting.

"hey, shirabu." he let go, "i need your help with something." there could be heard desperation in his voice, shirabu was shocked to see semi asking a favor from him.
