[tw : sh & blades]
i woke up , just to find myself lying on the floor , cradling baji in my arms.
eh?
i ran my fingers through his hair , remembering what happened the night before.
the sun shone rays through his window , blinding me temporarily.
it's so sunny today..
wait
don't we have school?
i shook baji awake , staring at him.
"fuyu , why're you up so early..."
baji replied , while rubbing his eyes.
"keisuke , school. late. morning."
whenever i was scared or anxious , i would always be unable to form a sentence.
i would only be able to spit our words that i wanted to say.
baji put two and two , and realised that we were eventually going to be late for school.
we rushed into the bathroom to freshen ourselves up.
after all , the last time i had a shower was at the hospital.
shit.
we were at baji's place , and i didn't bring any of my clothes over.
baji knew this , and he threw out an extra pair of his uniform.
i put it on , attempting to tighten the blazer.
it was obviously too big for me.
i couldn't show up to school like this.
i borrowed one of baji's scarf to cover up the fact that it was oversized.
we headed out the door , skipping the first meal of the day.
baji handed me a helmet.
i knew where this was going.
usually , we'd walk to school together , and share an onigiri on the way.
but this was the first time we went astray from our routine.
i got onto baji's motorcycle.
"y'ready ? fuyu ?"
"uh..yeah"
i replied , nodding my head in case baji didn't catch my whisper.
i was really awkward with my hands.
at first , i placed them on baji's back , but slowly , they moved down to hug his waist.
i let my cheek rest onto his back , feeling the cold breeze on my face.
we passed by many alleyways , some that were filled with couples , others with animals or a couple of middle school kids.
i smiled back to the couple of kids waving.
we stopped at the red light.
baji looked back , making sure i was okay.
"woah ! miya-san , look !! motorcycle!!"
a short and intrigued kid said , pointing towards baji's motorcycle.
the kid's eyes were glossy , and he imitated baji's move.
he pretended to be holding onto the handles , and made the engine sounds.
i let out a soft chuckle , before waving back to him as well.
kids are surely interesting.
i suddenly jerked up , as baji's motorcycle moved once the light turned green.
he sped through the traffic , making sure it was safe enough.
i closed my eyes , tugging on baji's waist as i was felt a snowflake fall on my nose.
it's ... snowing already?
we arrived at school , and baji gave me his hand warmers
"my mom gave me an extra pair...you can have it"
he said shyly , putting it on for me.
i thanked him , but reminded him of how we were going to be late.
he quickly apologised and grabbed me by my wrist , running to the shoe lockers.
we changed our shoes quickly , before running up to the second floor , making it just in time for art class.
"ah , baji , chifuyu ... i was worried you'd be caught up in the snow"
our friend , mitsuya , muttered.
he was like the parental figure of our group.
i ran over to him , giving him a hug.
