.azumane.
i couldn't believe it was already summer break halfway through the first year of college.
people were right when they said it was harder than high school... but also more laid back than high school.
like, no one cared if you came to class in pajamas, but god forbid you miss one too many lectures, or your entire grade would be screwed.
thankfully, we were currently on break, and i was finally able to meet up with daichi and suga.
for some odd reason, suga had insisted on meeting in some national park. it was a wide, open field with a small sheltered area that had some picnic tables and a barbecue.
i didn't see anyone else there, so i pulled out my phone to text the others.
asahi: suga be like "i know a place" and then takes us to some remote field to kill us
i chuckled slightly at the meme usage. sure it was a little embarrassing, but i was kind of proud of it.
i was just slipping my phone back in my pocket, when i heard, "coming in! don't turn around!"
it sounded suspiciously like daichi, and i was curious and wanted to turn around, but i figured that might not be the best option. so i'd wait a second to see what was going on.
"wait, what do you mean when you say-"
i soon found out when i felt a heavy weight thump onto my back and arms wrap loosely around my neck, and i instinctively gripped daichi's thighs as he wrapped them around my waist for a piggy-back ride.
"hey! what's all this abo-"
i was interrupted by a grinning suga running towards me.
"i'm coming in too!"
"wait! i'm holding-"
he paid no heed to my warning and threw himself at me anyway, so i had to let go of daichi's legs to grab him.
i felt daichi adjust his grip slightly to cling on without the support of my hands.
i was holding suga sort of awkwardly, so i shifted him around a bit and scooped my hands under his legs to hold him bridal style.
"whee! this is fun! you're so strong," he laughed, also wrapping his arms around my neck.
i squinted, very confused and slightly irritated.
"why is this happening?"
suga just laughed again, resting his head softly against my chest, and daichi offered a, "why not?"
i shook my head.
"i guess."
i decided to not question it, and just take in everything right now and live in the moment. i had a feeling this would be a very treasured memory later in life.
i let a smile cross my face as i realized just how happy i was spending time with these two and their antics.
as i looked at suga in my arms, i realized... his smile is really attractive... and his hair looks so soft, and that mole under his eye is so cute, and it's adorable how caring he is, and-
wait, hold up, what am i thinking?!
it still wasn't that long ago that i broke up with noya.
and besides, suga was taken.
by daichi.
who was also rather attractive... with his short, messy hair, and his confident personality, and general stability, and god, those thighs-
wait, stop the music! there i go again!
what are these intrusive thoughts? or are they as intrusive as i think?
ugh, wait, there i go overthinking again.
"aren't you happy to see us though, asahi?" suga asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"you guys could've knocked me over, and we all might've gotten hurt," i pointed out.
"well, like i said earlier, you're plenty strong. and look, neither of us got hurt!"
"yep! we had the utmost faith in your abilities even if you didn't," daichi added, moving his hand down to give my bicep a gentle squeeze as if to emphasize suga's point.
i blushed and let out a small sigh.
"you guys are lucky i love you."
i saw suga grinning at me, and i could guess daichi was wearing a similar expression.
"aw, asahi! we love you too!"
"that's right. and we missed you a lot. school just isn't the same without you."
"aw, you guys. i would hug you, but... my hands are kind of full." they chuckled, but i spoke again. "okay, but you guys are actually kind of heavy, can i put you down now?"
"oh, sure."
daichi slid off my back first, and i carefully placed suga on the ground, sighing once the weight was relieved.
"i thought you were supposed to be strong!" suga complained as we walked toward the shelter to sit at a picnic table.
"i am! it's just hard to carry two adult males at the same time! and not to be too critical of your guys' weight, but... you know what they say about the freshman fifteen..."
suga gasped and slapped my arm.
"asahi, that's mean!"
i laughed.
"i know, only joking."
he pouted.
"some joke that is. if anything, it's you that gained weight!"
i was about to reply when daichi intervened.
"to be fair, weight isn't a set number all the time. it's always fluctuating depending on how many calories you've consumed that day, how many calories you've burned, and many other factors. so... yes, we've all gained weight but we've also all lost it. and besides that, muscle is heavier than fat anyway, so in certain cases you might be happy to have gained weight."
suga and i looked at him, slightly confused, and he just held up his hands, looking meek.
"what? i find nutritional stuff interesting."
"well anyway," suga interrupted. "so, asahi, you know how i've been wanting to learn french?"
"yes? or wait... i thought you wanted to learn english? or... spanish? or was it italian?"
"well, yes, those too, but i'm going for one language at a time so i don't get too mixed up. anyway, i found this cute, little cartoon called voltron on netflix, and it has so many language options! so i'm watching it in french with japanese subtitles for now, but maybe next time around i'll watch in spanish or even english! but, wow! it's done wonders for my listening comprehension skills! hearing how to sort of organically put together sentences to hear how native speakers talk, and being able to listen to how the words sound and get a feel for the accent... it's incredible!"
"yeah, that's really great, suga!"
"oh, it's such a good show as well though! i think my favorite characters are pidge and shiro, and not gonna lie, shiro's lowkey a dilf. like... technically he doesn't have kids, but the rest of the team members are kind of like his kids. and yeah, i'm a big simp for him."
i chuckled.
"so it's kind of like you with daichi then. like how back in high school the team considered him the team dad."
their faces turned red and they looked at each other.
"i mean... technically he's not wrong?" daichi offered.
suga shrugged.
"okay, you make a fair point. but anyways! pidge! bro, i love pidge, such a tiny, little baby, and so smart too. and anyway, it all starts when shiro, lance, keith, pidge, and hunk find out they have to pilot these robotic lions in order to save the world from the evil galra..."
as i listened to suga rattling on about voltron some more, and daichi occasionally responding, i couldn't help but smile.
i was just thinking about how much i wanted these two in my life for a long time to come.
