Kokichi and shuichi where eating lunch under saihara's favourite tree "h-hey s-saihara-chan" "hm?" "D-did you a-already know how to dance before today?" Shuichi smiled as he watched the flower petals fall from the cherry trees "actually yea" kokichi nodded taking a sip of panta As he spoke "when i was younger me and my mum would lock ourselves in her room and practice to that very same song for hours while my dad was passed out on the couch....she was the kindest..she thought me how to hold someone gently and how to dance elegantly" shuichi giggled at the memories making kokichi smile "my mom was the first to tell me that it's ok being you, and its ok loving who you love....she was the first person to support me when i came out...." Shuichi's expression saddled as he held a soft pink petal "i wish she were alive"
Kokichi looked at the ground "i-if you dont m-mind me asking...how d-did your mom p-pass?" Kokichi fiddled with his thumbs, concerned they might've crossed a line shuichi forced a smile holding the petal in between his plam "she took her own life"
Kokichi's eyes widened as he saw saihara's eyes water "a-ah! I'm sorry i b-brought up a s-s-sensitive subject!" "N-no its fine i just-ah...i cant stop the tears.." shuichi rubbed his eyes but no matter how hard he tried the tears just flowed. He never cried over his moms death... he wasn't allowed to and so he held on to these emotions for 7 years.. "i-i-I'm sorry saihara-chan! I-uh..u-um i-i can hug y-you? No t-thats stu.........pid" shuichi wrapped his arms around the smaller boy holding them tight. The small boy quickly returned the hug with a blushing face "t-thanks ouma-chan....haha your hugs are the best" shuichi chuckled with his head lightly rested on top of the smaller boys head.
Kokichi felt his heart flutter and bounce around in his chest as shuichi hugged him. They stayed like that for a while. In each other's warm embrace, for once shuichi felt loved, loved and warm. For once kokichi felt safe , safe and acknowledged.
BRINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
The lunch bell rang interrupting their moment
"*sniff* haha we should go to class my beloved" shuichi let go of ouma and stood up not thinking about what had just escaped his lips
"y-y-your b-beloved?!" Ouma sprung up with a bright red face "a-ah! I-I'm sorry t-that probably creeped you out its just y-your just v-very special to-" "saihara-chan its ok, i-it w-was sweet" kokichi picked up his bento and smiled at saihara with a light pick blush on their cheeks and Small button nose "a-alright lets go"
