Eijiro's never liked keeping his phone on during work-out sessions, but it does happen a lot that he forgets to turn it off.

He's laid on the weight-lifting bench, deadlifting 110, sweat dripping off his body at each movement, music blasting in his ears through an expensive pair of jet-black wireless headphones before his music is interrupted by his phone's ringtone booming loudly in his ears.
He carefully puts down the heavy weight set, groaning and sighing heavily at the interruption while he snatches his phone up.

The annoyance faded right away.

Incoming Call; "Kamie"

He picks up, not having to raise the phone up to his ear because of his headphones, and gladly not doing so due to the gross amounts of sweat he currently produced, as he steals a towel to wipe his forehead and hair with.

His heart shatters instantly at the sound of sobbing coming from the other side of the line. She sounds frantic, each sob and wail is quavery and so painfully genuine as they rip out through her in such a compulsive manner...

He nearly bolts out of that gym, grabbing everything he had to go somewhere more private.

"Kamie?" He calls, speaking loudly to cut through the crying, "Kamie, is everything alright--?!"
"K-Ki--! rr..ish..i-..ma...!" She sobbed.
"I'm right here!-- Yup-! Kamie I can't quite hear you--!"

Eijiro is Denki's escape. He always has been.
They've known each other ever since the fifth grade of middle school. Now, they've known each other for three, going into four, years.

Denki is the first person Eijiro's ever stood up to. And he still remembers it clearly, to this day, how and why it had happened.

Denki had shown up to school wearing a pink jacket, and pink socks.
She was severely picked on, and singled out to be one of the "Strange kids".
Denki didn't feel hurt whenever they all called her a girl... but she was severely hurt when they followed it with insults and mocking behavior.

The moment that pink jacket was cut with scissors by one of the bullies, Eijiro stepped in, roaring newly-found courage and protection and rage as he shouted at the large group to not come any closer, to leave Denki to his own likes and fashion, and to apologize for both tearing the jacket apart, and for putting tears in "his" eyes...

That day, Denki had naturally fallen beside Eijiro, walking under the umbrella of protection Eijiro always held out above him whenever he did. It wasn't long until Denki had come forward to try and tell Eijiro why, truly, he dressed the way he did.

"Kirishima-kun?"

He turned, smiling as he does, to show his undivided attention.

"Can I... tell you something?"
"Oh, sure!--"
"-Promise not to tell others?"
He's caught off guard, but he responds, "I promise!"
He seems nervous, hesitant, and afraid of being rejected... it was then that Eijiro's body had turned fully towards him, when his smile had faded a bit. He could tell that moment was about to turn into something serious.
