Chapter 42.6: Blissful Leasure

Kenji and Ryoga, now fed up, expressed their annoyance. 

Kenji: Let's go already. 

Ryoga: Yeah. 

Surprisingly, before the girls left, both of them wrote down their phone numbers quickly on small scraps of paper and handed them to Kiyotaka and Shido in secret. 

*WINK*

The group left as Shido and Kiyotaka looked on at their messy scraps of paper containing their phone numbers. 

Shido: Hehe, we're pretty popular huh? At the very least, we're making a name for ourselves. 

*RIP*

Shido: Hm?

Kiyotaka tore apart the piece of paper in his hand and reached over, doing the same to Shido's. 

Kiyotaka: I already got out of an annoying relationship. There's no need to get tangled into something else, especially with promiscuous tramps like those. 

Shido: Hehe, wasn't planning to begin with. I've already got eyes on someone~

Ignoring him, Kiyotaka sat back down on their bench as the two talked about other things, such as future clubs they were interested in. 

Shido: Where do you see yourself playing? 

Kiyotaka: Whoever will have me. I'll start off small and then climb up. You're 18 and I'm 17. We have a lot of time to establish ourselves. Experience will be key. Some mid-tier team in Europe will be enough. 

Shido: Ah, that's so vague. I already got my eyes on Spain. 

Kiyotaka: Hm? Spain?

Shido: Ibra was awesome in pretty much every league except Spain. He's even scoring in bunches at Man Utd. I wanna do something my idol never did so I'm starting there~. It also helps that the best club in the world resides there. The amount of exposure my name will get if I go there would be insane, hehe. Barcelona will be the way to go for me. 

Kiyotaka: That's smart. I guess if we're being specific, you can't go wrong with Real but that's a little farther down the line. I'd prefer to develop and then join a big club.     

Shido: If that happens, we'll be rivals. Our names will be forever intertwined like Messi and Ronaldo. Kiyo and Shido... doesn't that have a nice ring to it?

Kiyotaka couldn't hide a slight smile. 

Kiyotaka: You really do think big, huh? Well, I wouldn't have you any other way. Fine, let's move towards that goal. 

Shido looked into Kiyo's eyes and saw his conviction. 

Kiyotaka: Real Madrid and Barcelona... we can give that a try. There won't be a bigger stage for a rivalry more than an El Classico. 

Shido smiled and chuckled. 

Shido: Works for me~

*HONK*

Without the pair noticing the time pass by them, their taxi was waiting for them vehemently. 

Shido: Get your bags, Kiyo! We're heading home!

Kiyotaka: Sure. 

Stuffing their purchases into the back of the cab, both Shido and Kiyotaka entered and were on their way back to the zesty demon's apartment to catch some Z's.
