-I really feel like Blemish is a song that really fits this story after so many months not doing anything to it.
-Also, a Japanese first year in high school is equivalent to an American sophomore.

Adrian's pov
I was gazing out of the window upon the landscape. The colors of autumn running across the outside of my high school. This season is much needed after the extreme heat and high humidity that is typical in Japanese summers. My life right now is relatively carefree since I'm only a first year.
"Oi, Adrian," a hand pass my eyes. "Are you even listening to what I'm saying?" Oh yeah, I was talking to Ayushi, shit I'm never going to hear the end of this now.
"Ah, sorry, I was just thinking about something," I trailed off.
"You're so scatterbrained sometimes I swear," She sighed, dramatically facepalming,"As I was saying; Do you see that kid over there?" she whispered lowly directing her eyes toward the back of the classroom. A guy was sitting there with his head practically stuffed into some kind of weird, foreign book.
"Yeah... What about him?"
"I think he might like you," Ayushi said nudging my shoulder and winking. "Are you fucking serious? Me of all people?" I almost screamed.
"Oh please Adrian, tons of people have liked since you transferred here in elementary school, but like a guy liking you. That's just not natural,"
"Whatever you say..."
"Anyway, we wanted to invite him over this weekend to mess with him a little, since he is a little popular for being a bit sassy(bitchy). We wanted to add him to our group," she said.
"Don't make the guy quit school, I mean you saw what happened to that Sayuri girl last year. She legit became a shut-in after one of your 'parties'," I paused noticing that he was staring at us out of the corner of his eye.
"It's because she took it too seriously. We just want to poke at him a bit that's all. It will surely make him popular," Ayushi said standing. "And you are going to be the one who gets him to go. Since he likes you he won't say no. Now go, I'll be in class 1-b if you need me."
I made my way over to his desk, he barely even stirred other than turning the page of his book. This must be what Ayushi was talking about when it came to sassiness.
"What do you have to say that is more important than my studies," he said out of nowhere not even lifting his head from this book with a strange cover. I've never heard him speak ever, he is silent most of the time. His voice is definitely deeper than I expected for someone with such feminine looks and body language. "I just wanted to talk y'know. You seemed lonely,"
He looked up at me with a sudden expression that could only be described as one of grief and mysticism with a hint of concern. "You look familiar to someone I knew once..." he said in a barely audible tone. "Do you mind?" I said pulling up a chair from the desk behind me. His lips opened as if he were going to say something, but he just nodded. Another point for Ayushi for being completely right about him. Hell, I don't even know the guy's name and he just gives off bad vibes. I have a really bad feeling about him coming to the party. But for some reason, something is drawing me towards him.
"So what's your name?"
"It's Ru- I mean Takanori," He said with some sign of physical cringing as he almost said something I assume that made him uncomfortable.
"Cool, I'm Adrian," I responded holding out my hand to him. He stared at it for a second before shaking it. The top of his hand was covered in a large band aid. "What happened to your hand,"
"Cooking accident, I burned my hand," He said quickly withdrawing it.
"So, Takanori, would you be interested in coming to our party. It'll be fun and loads of people are going to." I proposed in the most formal way I could. "Uh, do you have a phone?"
He reached into his bag and pulled out his phone.
"I'll add my number so I can send you the details,"
ー ー ー ー
The next day he wasn't at school. He just vanished I texted him a few times and he never responded. I didn't receive a response until later in the day.
>> Takanori(눈_눈)
Hey. sorry for not responding to your texts. something came up so I wasn't at school today. the party is still tomorrow right?
>>To, Takanori(눈_눈)
Yah it's still tomorrow. ayushi said that everyone should dress in a costume since it's Halloween. (; ̄Д ̄)
>>Takanori(눈_눈)
K. i'll just prepare it tonight then. is there anything like omiyage* or something that I should bring?
>>To, Takanori(눈_눈)
Definitely, her family is semi-traditional af, an omiyage of any type is fine.
>>Takanori(눈_눈)
See ya tomorrow then╰(*'︶'*)╯
For some reason, I felt, as I lay there on my bed, that everything he is saying as forced and just some kind of happy facade. There might legitimately be something wrong with him.
Takanori's pov
I brought my legs closer wiping my eyes as tears started running down my face for some reason. I looked at the selfie that Adrian put as his contact picture. He looks so alike to him it's almost scary.
He actually kept his promise.
____________
*omiyage is gift giving in Japan. You bring an omiyage to someone's house if it's your first time there.
*it's not really common to host events at one's house in Japan, therefore, the action of having a house party is seen as hip and Americanized which is pretty mainstream.
NOTE: All chaoter will be pushed back a number because chapter 2 will now be the party and everything else will be different. And I mught add a chapter or two in between to make the plot less convuluted and correct any time mistakes.
