"i will never shut up about me, myself & i," you say as you and haruko walk through the mall.

he groans, "oh, come on. i think everyone is sick of you bringing up 5 seconds of summer all the damn time."

"you think i care about that? no. they are my favourites and i will never shut up about them. everyone just has to accept that. it's my life, so i decide what i want in my life!"

"ok queen," haruko says with an eye roll. "you do you."

"hey, be nice," you pout to your best friend.

he chuckles and bumps into your shoulder, "of course, i'm always nice to you."

haruko's lip curl and his cute braces smile appears. "and the song is pretty cool, so you're allowed to sing it."

"bullshit i feed myself, me and my selfish appetite~"

"okay, maybe not in public?"

you pout, "okay then. um, why were we here again?"

"to buy a present for my younger brother."

"oh, right, it's shiro-kun his birthday soon."

haruko nods and puts his hands into the pockets of his dark green varsity jacket. he looks around in the window of every store.

"do you know what you want to give him?" you ask him, but haruko shrugs.

"no idea. he's at that age that he doesn't know what he wants. he's too young for shooting games, but he doesn't want 'young kids' toys because he says he's too old for that. so basically, i'm stuck."

"you can give him pokémon cards. everyone loves those."

he chuckles, "you just want to buy them for yourself, don't you?"

"mhm, let's go. maybe they have 5sos their latest album in stores too."

haruko shakes his head but walks into the store with you.

once inside, he actually gets a little excited too when he sees all the toys.

you two spend a good fourty minutes in the store before you walk out of the store again.

you have bought a couple of pokémon card packs, an eevee plushie, a 5sos cd (calm <3), and a scorbunny pop. haruko walked out with a puzzle for his brother, a lego set to build a plant, and a box where he can collect his pennies in because he doesn't have enough of those yet.

"shall we get some coffee?"

haruko nods excitedly to your suggestion.

you make your way your favourite café.

and you know how they say faith doesn't exist?

and that things are just meant to be?

well screw those people.

because to you seeing the one that once rejected you isn't something that's "meant to be".

to you, seeing someone like that, is just bad luck.

just bad fucking luck.

"haru, we can't be here."

"why not?"

the guy frowns as he sees your pale face. "have you seen a ghost?"

"i wish it was a ghost. no, akaashi is there."

haruko places his hand in front of his mouth, "oh god. more reason to sit down anyway and order our coffee."

"what? the one i once met in tokyo on a vacation is sitting at our local café, and you want to sit down? there's no way–"
