The sunny August sky shined through the dark, air conditioned room. Soraru was sleeping peacefully on his bed, not worrying about anything. That is until he was woken up by a certain redhead. He opened his eyes to see his brother's grinning face.

"Niichan~ guess what day it is~"

"The day you let me sleep." Soraru closed his eyes again and was about to go back to sleep.

"Niichan! Today is the day we go to the festival." Sakata pouted at his brother for forgetting about their plans.

"Oh right," was all Soraru said as rolled a bit on his bed.

Sakata giggled at the sight of his brother's messy hair, if Mafu saw it I'm sure he'd blush. Alright I'm going to help him today. Let's hope it goes well.

The festival began at 7 pm so the guys decided to meet up at 6:30 pm to go. They have some free time at the moment until they have to get ready.

"Why can't you let me sleep?" Soraru said groggily.

"Cause we have time and I'm not letting you sleep in until it's time—"

Sakata was speaking when he saw that he had received a text from Urata. He looked at it for two seconds before speaking again.

"Never mind niichan~ Have fun sleeping, I'll be with Urata." The redhead smiled at his brother and left the house.

Soraru blinked a few times as he proceeded what happened. He just laughed at his brother's happy expression and went back to sleep. The house was filled with silence as the only sound of noise was busy being with his boyfriend.

Soraru was sleeping in his bed for a bit more and woke up just in time to hear the door being knocked. He sighed, lazily got up, and went downstairs to answer the door. Upon opening it, the first thing he saw was white hair and then looked to see the albino smiling.

"Good morning Soraru~"

"Why are you here?"

Soraru rubbed his eyes, it sounded rude but the albino could tell it held no malice. Mafu found the raven-haired's action cute and blushed as he saw a disheveled Soraru.

"I'm here to kidnap you and make you hang out with me."

"Of course. If it's not Sakata making me do something it's you." Soraru sighed as he was already mentally tired.

"At least act like you're happy." Mafu pouted at the raven-haired male who just slightly laughed, cute.

"Fine, just wait for me to get ready." Soraru lazily said as he yawned and went back towards the stairs to go to his room.

"Okay~"

After a few minutes, Mafu was dragging Soraru around town, he seemed to enjoy the raven-haired's unamused face on being dragged.

"Explain why you're dragging me around?" Soraru had his arms crossed, following behind as Mafu was smiling ahead.

"I'm bored and I wanted to hang out with someone."

"And why is it me accompanying you and not the others?"

"Because the others are busy with their significant others. And I'm not third wheeling." Mafu playfully pouted as he mentioned the others being with their boyfriends. Lucky them.

As Mafu was pouting, he turned his head to look at Soraru behind him. But if I'm alone with Soraru people would probably think we're a couple. Mafu blushed at the thought of this being like a date with Soraru. He smacked his cheeks in an attempt to stop the blush creeping on his face.

Soraru saw the albino's action and just laughed to himself. He really is cute, like an angel. Soraru didn't care about the small blush on his face, he just smiled at the person in front of him.

They were walking around, enjoying the mild summer heat. Soraru would stop walking sometimes and turn to look at the albino, only to see him being distracted by small things. If Sakata is like a puppy then Mafu would also be a puppy since they practically have the same amount of energy.

At some point Soraru looked behind him to see if the albino was there, he wasn't. He looked around to see him by a store. He watched as the albino was looking at the display in the store. He was looking at a white yukata with small floral design patterns on it.

"It looks pretty." The albino stared in awe at the clothing as Soraru walked up to him.

"You seem interested in that yukata." Soraru said amusingly. Mafu blushed at the comment.

"W-Well I w-wanted to go buy one for the festival."

"You don't have one?"

"I do but it's a bit worn out."

No way am I going to tell him that I wanted to buy a new one because we're going to the festival together. Mafu blushed remembering Amatsuki forcing him to buy a new one to wear for Soraru. Ama-chan is so cruel.

"So you're going to buy a new one."

"Yep." Mafu looked up the raven-haired male expectedly, Soraru saw the look and gave a small sigh.

"Alright let's go. But I'm not paying for it."

"Thank you Soraru~" Mafu smiled brightly as he grabbed the raven-haired's hand and entered the store.

Mafu was looking around, trying to see if he could find the one on display. He looked at Soraru and saw him just standing by some of the clothes, not really paying attention to the albino. Mafu slightly pouted and puffed his cheeks out, he then thought of an idea.

"Soraru don't you need a yukata?"

"I already have one." Well that didn't work.

"Can you help me find one?"

"Why should I, you're the one who's going to wear it."

"Please~" Mafu pulled out his puppy eyes as Soraru turned his head away to not look, causing Mafu to pout.

I see, so Soraru is learning. Mafu went to the raven-haired male, grabbed his hand, and dragged the confused Soraru with him. Soraru wasn't amused but decided to give up. When it comes to him, it seems like I just can't ignore him. Soraru smiled to himself as the albino went to look around more. After a few more times checking, he finally found the yukata he wanted.

"Aha. Found it~" Mafu announced his discovery to the raven-haired male.

"Good for you."

"Soraru now's not the time for your negative, sarcastic compliment."

"Eh?"

"Well time to try it on to see if it fits." Mafu said, ignoring Soraru's question.

"Won't you need help tying it?"

"Eh?"

Mafu looked at the raven-haired male as he pointed out the statement. Mafu blushed as he thought of Soraru tying it for him.

"I-I-I'll j-j-just a-ask s-s-someone w-who works h-here." Mafu was stuttering as he looked away from Soraru.

The raven-haired male rose his eyebrow before he noticed the albino's blush. Oh. Soraru just laughed at the embarrassed Mafu.

"You know I can help you." A small smirk appeared of his face as he saw Mafu blush even more.

"Y-Y-You're o-o-okay w-with t-t-that?"

"Sure."

"O-Okay..."

Mafu walked into the changing room, as he closed he curtain he mentally screamed at himself. The albino looked at the mirror to see his reflection, what he was faced with was a red-faced albino. Soraru is so cruel. Mafu put on the yukata and then stayed silent for a minute before calling Soraru.

"U-Um... Soraru...."

The raven-haired male went in to see the blushing albino. He silently laughed to himself as he went to tie the yukata for the embarrassed albino.

"Done."

Mafu looked at himself in the mirror and stared in awe. He was happy that it fit him and adored the design of it.

"It looks good on you." Soraru commented as the albino turned his head to look at him.

"Y-Y-You t-think so?" Soraru just nodded as Mafu blushed, before pushing the raven-haired out of the changing room.

"I-I-I'm g-going to c-c-change b-back."

"You didn't need to push me." Mafu stuck his tongue out even though he knew the raven-haired male couldn't see it. After Mafu had bought the yukata they went to get a crepe and were walking back home.

"So yummy!" Mafu exclaimed as he was eagerly eating it.

"Was buying the yukata that tiring that you had to devour the crepe?" Soraru asked, amused as the albino quickly ate it. Mafu just gave him a small glare, it had no effect on the Soraru, who just laughed at the albino's attempt of looking threatening.

"Meanie." Mafu pouted, I'm more mentally tired from what happened at the store.

"So we're all meeting up at 6:30, have fun for the next 45 minutes." Soraru was about to enter his house when Mafu spoke out to him.

"Eh? Wouldn't it be better if I just stayed here until the others come? I have my yukata right here so I can change into it."

"......." Soraru was silent after hearing the albino's suggestion. Mafu was a bit worried when he heard no reply and was about to say that he was joking until Soraru spoke.

"Sure. Though the others will tease you about it." Soraru turned to look at the albino with a smirk on his face as he walked into his house. Mafu stood still for a few seconds.

"Hey Soraru!" The albino exclaimed as he followed the raven-haired male into the house. It was soon 6:15 when Mafu decided to change into his yukata.

"Nyeh? I have to ask Soraru to tie it for me again." As Mafu said that to himself he began to blush. He timidly walked into the raven-haired's room and knocked. Soraru opened the door to see the blushing albino.

"U-U-Um...I-I-I n-need....." Soraru could tell what the albino needed and went behind him to tie the yukata.

"There." Soraru said as Mafu smiled at him.

"T-Thanks." They heard the door downstairs open and soon the voice of a happy Sakata filled the house.

"Niichan I'm back~"
"You're so loud."

"Eh? Urata came back with Sakata?" Mafu said as they went downstairs to see the two.

"Oh, Mafu's here?" Sakata looked at his brother with a small smirk.

"He dragged me around while you guys were on a date." Mafu innocently smiled at the two.

"Is that so~" Sakata grinned as he saw Mafu in his yukata.

"Wwww Mafu looks so cute."

"T-Thanks Sakata." Mafu smiled at the compliment from his friend.

"So you actually did go buy a new one like Amatsuki said." Urata said as the albino slowly nodded his head, blush on his face.

"Why are you here Urata?" Mafu was confused on why  the brunette had returned with the redhead.

"This idiot wanted me to come back with him." Mafu noticed the brunette was already in his yukata and grinned.

"Ah~ so you went to change and then came back here with Sakata to help him change~" Mafu gave him a teasing look as Urata blushed.

"Oi! No I didn't!"

"Whatever makes you happy Urata." The brunette just sighed in defeat as Sakata walked up to his brother.

"Did you find my yukata?"

"Yep. I left it in your room."

"Thanks niichan~" Sakata walked up the stairs as Soraru followed, leaving the brunette and albino alone.

"So you went with him to buy a new one?" Urata asked the albino, who blushed.

"Y-Yep."

"Of course you would."

"Don't be mean Urata. Soraru helped me by tying it for me."

"Probably cause you forced him."

"How rude~" The door was knocked again and Mafu went to open it to see Shima and Senra in their yukatas that matched their hair color.

"Hello guys."

"Hi Mafu. Oh Urata's here too, how surprising~" Shima smirked at the brunette.

"Wipe that smirk off your face."

"Wwwww how scary."

Senra said 'hi' to the albino while the other two were bickering. Soon Amatsuki and Kashitarou had arrived wearing their yukatas.

"Where's Soraru and Sakata?" Kashitarou asked, his question was answered when Sakata appeared from the stairs.

"Here~" Urata blushed at the sight of the redhead in a yukata. It suits him. Mafu stared at Soraru, he couldn't take his eyes off the raven-haired male.

"Wwww. Someone seems love-struck." Amatsuki laughed as the albino blushed at the comment and looked away.

"So we're ready to go?" Senra asked the two, Soraru nodded as Sakata was bouncing with energy.

"I can't wait." The redhead was the first to leave the house as the others followed behind him.

"Soraru looks nice in a yukata." Mafu complimented the raven-haired male with his cheeks tinted red. Soraru smiled and patted the albino's head.

"Thanks." Mafu touched the part Soraru patted and smiled at the raven-haired male.

Urata saw the interaction and sighed as he could tell they were acting differently then before. Guess I'll help Mafu with his crush. The brunette was looking at the two before turning his attention towards his boyfriend, who was chatting with Senra. How did I get such an energetic boyfriend? He smiled to himself as he grabbed the redhead's hand. Sakata looked at Urata, who was facing the other way, and saw his ears were red. He smiled and held onto the brunette's hand tighter, causing the brunette to smile back.

"This is going to be fun. Don't you think so Soraru?" Mafu looked at the raven-haired male for a reply.

"Yeah. Let's see how long the tanuki can deal with a hyper Sakata."

"You really like it when Urata suffers. You're so cruel Soraru."

"Get used to it."

"Wwwww."

Mafu giggled to himself, Soraru could hear that giggle for years and he wouldn't get annoyed from it. The raven-haired male had a faint smile on his face as they walked to the festival. Maybe I'll have fun just for once. And it's all thanks to the albino.

Double update~

Also thanks for the 1k views. I was already surprised when I had 100 but it feels so nice to know people actually like reading this book. I'm motivated to keep going on.

Now will we see Soraru or Mafu confess to the other? Will they or will they not, who knows (well I do~)
