"Akiteru..."

"Tsukki!"

"Akiteru..."

"Tsukki!"

"Akiteru...."

"Tsukki!"

The rain pounded against the ground in front of him. It soaked through his shirt and ran down his back.

A tall boy sitting on the ground with his knees brought up to his chest. He was crying. He had been for a while now. His glasses were speckled with water and mud, and his once curly blonde hair was plastered to his skin, flattened by the rain.

His face was expressionless.

"Tsukki!"

A shorter boy was running around, calling to the other one. He had flat hair with a greenish tint that laid limp on his face as he searched in the pouring rain.

It was getting cold and dark.

"Tsukki! Answer me!"

The blonde perked up and the two boys saw each other.

Yamaguchi. He must have been looking for ages.

He waved and Yamaguchi ran to him.

"Oh my god Tsukki! Are you hurt? Did you hurt yourself? You're all wet!"

Tsukishima looked up to the green-haired boy, his eyes devoid of emotion.

"Why does it matter."

It came out as less of a question and more of a statement. Yamaguchi flinched and his lower lip started to tremble.

Tsukishima was oblivious.

"Okay then, w-well I'll just go...sorry for bothering you."

"Wait."

"Tsukki?"

"Please. Please come back-"

"Tsukki, I would never leave you behind."

Yamaguchi wrapped his arms around the taller boy, and they sat there together, protecting each other from the rain.

I wanna thank rintarosunaswife for giving me this idea!
