TW: Homophobic language

~~~~~~~~

As Ennoshita walked through his decorated house, he couldn't help but smile. He had spent the last day or two cleaning and decorating his house for his birthday party. He had invited a few people to come over and they were set to arrive any moment now.

As Ennoshita was doing his final check of the house, he heard the doorbell ring. He quickly rushed to the door and was met with the smiling face of his friend, Sugawara.

"Happy birthday, Ennoshita!" Suga exclaimed, hugging his underclassmen. Ennoshita happily returned the hug and said,

"Thanks for coming! I'll show you around."  Ennoshita led Suga into his house and gave him a quick tour.

"So I was planning to watch a movie tonight, and have dinner at some point." Ennoshita explained.

"Oh fun! I can't wait!"

Over the next half hour, more people arrived at the party. Kinoshita, Narita, Nishinoya and Tanaka all arrived together, and Yamaguchi arrived a few minutes after them.

"Thanks for coming everyone! So for our movie tonight were going to watch 'Mean girls'. How does that sound?" Everyone agreed with the brunette, and Noya and Tanaka high-fived, getting hyped for the movie.

Ennoshita laughed and put the movie in the DVD player. He settled into the couch next to Suga and pressed 'play' on the remote. The opening credits started to roll and Ennoshita smiled. He loved the time that he was able to spend with his friends.

~~

All throughout the movie everyone joked and laughed. When Janice said 'he's almost too gay to function' Kinoshita muttered a 'same' under his breath and Suga almost fell out of his chair laughing.

By the end of the movie, Tanaka was laying on the floor, half asleep. Noya was sitting on one of the couches, half eaten pizza in his hand. Kinoshita and Narita hadn't moved, but had definitely shifted closer to eachother and Yamaguchi was sitting on the floor in front of Suga, who was playing with the younger boy's hair.

Soon after the movie ended they had cupcakes, and Tanaka managed to get some icing on his nose and shirt, and had subsequently kicked it off. Noya got a kick out of this and laughed so hard tears came to his eyes.

But, all good things must come to an end. One by one the party guests left, and as Ennoshita was waving the last person, Sugawara, off, he heard the unmistakable sound of the garage door opening. He flinched. Only one member of his family came into the house through the garage, and that was his father. Ennoshita always felt uncomfortable around his father, for nine out of ten times he was drunk. Knowing he would have to talk to the man if he stayed in the living room for a minute longer, he quickly grabbed the gifts his friends had given him and retreated to his room. He was going through the gifts when he realized that he had left Sugawara's gift in the living room.

As he was going to retrieve the gift, he heard the drunken mumbling of his father. Ennoshita rounded the corner and saw his father, bright red cup in the man's hand.

"That f*g, leaving all his shit around the room." Ennoshita's father mumbled, glancing around the room with a drunken look in his eye.

Ennoshita felt tears well up in his eyes. He quickly grabbed the forgotten gift and ran to his room, not letting the tears fall just yet.

Once he was in the relative safety of his room he sat on the floor,  surrounded by the gifts his friends had given him.

That was when the tears started to fall.

The tears were warm and fat, staining the boy's dark jeans. He wiped his eyes with the heels of his hands, but the action did nothing to stop the tears from rolling down his cheeks.

But, not wanting his father to hear his sobs, Ennoshita wiped his eyes and sat up, putting on a facade of happiness.

So this is inspired by real events. The only difference is that my father said something transphobic and not homophobic :/

Happy birthday to me I guess.

Have a nice day/night!
