tsukasa set his phone down on his nightstand and rolled over on his bed.

it's cold out, he's cold. but he always feels some warmth seeing his phone light up with a notification from rui. this time he texted first.

thing is, he already knew what first period was gonna be. he just wanted to talk to his close friend. but then again, he had other choices.

toya. emu. nene. akito. others.

why'd he pick rui out of everybody?

he'd been on tsukasa's mind all day, that's why. it's a sunday. tsukasa was all fired up about getting to see his friends ((MORE LIKE RUI)tomorrow. so fired up that he couldn't get himself to bed.

does tsukasa have a crush on rui? surely not. he's been a little fruity around other men sometimes, but he swears he'd still date a woman instead. like... like shizuku. tsukasa tells himself that he only sees rui as one of his bestfriends. that's why he's so clingy.

no other reason.

kasa stared at the wall. decorated with stickers and pictures of moments with his friends. he began to drift off to sleep, at peace knowing that he'll be warm all night if he just kept rui on his mind..

ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:ﾟ

i wake up, i rub my eyes and turn over. rui's on my bed.

wait, what the hell? rui's on my bed?

i get up. blink a lil to make sure i'm not hallucinating.

yeaaahhh.. rui's right there.

i find myself staring at him, probably having a good dream. he smiles a little bit and turns over. i can't see his face anymore.

i hover my hand over him, wondering if i should wake him up or not. i end up shaking him a little and he tenses. rui's awake.

he flutters his eyes open and mutters.

"mhn? what time is it?"

rui turns over and finds me staring at him. "good morning, kasa,"

i look out the curtains. it's sunrise. and then i look at the clock. it's 4 pm.

what the hell?

i turn back to look at rui and he's smiling at me. "why'd you wake me up, my love?"

MY LOVE? but we're not even dating..

"i don't know why i did, sorry if i interrupted a dream of yours," i said. "you were sleeping so peacefully."

he smiles a little more and sits up. "its okayy!" he straightens his back and yawns.

"i had a dream we were kissinggg," he slurs, obviously not fully awake.

kissing? "are you okay, rui? we're not that close." i asked. i'm concerned. why is he acting so weird?

"you're wrong, kasaa," he smiles. "we've always been this close! you're just not aware of itt,"

i stared blankly at him. there's nothing off about him, same old rui. but why is he still speaking like that?

"now come over here and kiss mee..(๑>◡<๑)"

tsukasa's alarm blared in his ear. beep.

his mouth felt dry, he felt like how he always felt after having one of those amazing rests. lines on his arms and cheek, dry drool on the side of his mouth. et cetera.

he turned over to put the alarm on snooze and then realized what the clock said. 7:23 AM. nearly 35 minutes before school started. he only had 35 minutes to get ready. he glanced at his curtains and opened them to make sure he wasn't tripping again. he wasn't. he really did have to rush to school.

"shit."
