summary:
in which the yugi twins, kou minamoto and sousuke mitsuba went to find [name]
"The night without a single starlight, the path we walked on is lonely and regretful"
It was around 7:15 am when Amane woke up from his bed. He scratched his messy hair while looking at Tsukasa hugging his pillow with a tiny drool on the side of his lips. The older twin hopped off the bed as he made his way to his sleeping brother. "Oi Tsukasa, wake up we have to leave early!"
"Five more minutes" Tsukasa groaned against the pillow he was hugging. Amane's eyes twitched in annoyance. Yesterday, Tsukasa was the one pestering his older brother about being excited on the upcoming trip.
Amane lets out an exaggerated sigh, he smacked the back of his brother's head. "Ow! What the—" Tsukasa opened his eyes and rubbed the back of his head pouting. "I'm up!"
"Good." Amane walks away from their room and went straight to the bathroom. Tsukasa rubbed the back of his head to soothe the pain. He stood up and went to the kitchen to get something to eat.
The shower room was a bit steamy since Amane activated the heater to produce hot water. He sighed, water droplets begin to trickle down from his hair to his skin. Amane placed his hands against the wall in front of him, his hair looked damped as it continues to drip droplets of water like rain.
Amane stepped out of the shower whilst wrapping a towel around his torso. He grabbed another towel to dry his hair and draped it around his neck for a little while.
After drying himself, Amane puts on his undergarments, then his oversized black shirt tuckdd in to his black cargo pants. He grabbed a belt and buckled it to his pants. Finally, he grabbed his white hoodie with a silhouette of a rocket ship as a design and puts it inside his bag.
"Tsukasa, are you done?" Amane asked, grabbing his black backpack nearby and putting on one of its straps.
Tsukasa came out, he's wearing a grey shirt with striped sleeves that has a smiley face on it. He's wearing black shorts, he doesn't like anything that covers his legs. "Yeah, I'm done!"
"Mitsuba and the Minamoto kid must be waiting for us." Amane beckoned him to go downstairs to the doorway to change their shoes. "If we don't go early, we wouldn't be able to find her. [name] said to meet her in 5:53 pm so let's go!"
"We need some food too, Amane!" Tsukasa went to the kitchen and grabbed two packs of Lays. He stuffed it inside Amane's backpack. "Okay, that's all!"
'I was gonna say that we're gonna eat in a fast food restaurant but that works I guess.' Amane puts on his black chonky-soled boots. "Let's go." he stood up as the twins went out of their house, starting their quest to find [name].
"We just have to ride two trains towards Sanaol Academy." Mitsuba mentions. "We don't have to waste four hours of getting there."
Kou looked over to Amane and sweatdropped. "Senpai, why are you dressing so casually? I thought we're supposed to find [name]?" he said.
"He's going to flex his fashion sense for [name]." Mitsuba smugs at Amane earning a smack from the latter, the pink haired boy is known for being a cocky bastard and a tease especially to his close friends.
"Let's go to the train station." Amane tells the three boys who were glancing all over the place. They nodded as they followed Amane towards the nearest station to take the train towards Yokohama to [name]'s school.
The train ride took longer than they thought it would be. Tsukasa was sitting on one of the seats while texting with someone on the phone. Mitsuba and Kou were sleeping next to each other during the ride. As for Amane, he remained standing, clinging on one of the handles next to Tsukasa's seat.
Amane was listening through his headphones while scrolling through his phone. The train stopped for the people who are going to leave and the people who are going inside.
Amane has his eyes on his phone that he didn't even realize that the train was crowding with people. A certain girl wearing a fluffy jacket with a crop top underneath and a pair of cargo pants passed by the standing boy.
Then, he heard a sound that made his eyes widen. Amane looked over to the person who just passed by but they were already gone. "Amane?" Tsukasa called. "What are you looking at?"
Amane shook his head. "That was nothing." he replied flatly.
What he did not know is that it was [name] who passed by.
Amane fell asleep while hanging on to one of the handles in the train. The train halted to its next stop making his eyes flutter open. He pulled out his phone from his pocket. "It's noon already." he mentions.
"Wake them up." Amane covered his mouth to yawn as he beckons Tsukasa to wake Mitsuba and Kou since they arrived to Yokohama.
The four of them stepped out of the train. Amane looked around for the person who passed by him that triggered a sound. He furrowed his eyes in confusion and shook his head. "You three want something to eat?"
"I mean, we're hungry anyways of course we want to." Mitsuba cocked an eyebrow at Amane as if the answer is obvious that they were hungry because of the train ride. Amane looked over to his phone, then pointed at the distance.
"There's a fast food restaurant that we can go to." He pointed out.
"Then what the hell were we waiting for? New Year? Let's go!" Mitsuba waves his hands towards Kou and Tsukasa who were admiring the tall buildings and the roaming transportations. The four boys started to walk their way to a nearby restaurant.
After ordering their food from the counter, the four of them took some seats by the window. "Now that we're here, when do we start looking?" Kou unwrapped the wrapper that was around the burger, then took a bite from it. "You said we'll start by going to Sanaol Academy"
"After we eat I guess." Amane sipped on the cherry soda he was drinking, looking at the window deep in thought. He was kind of nervous of meeting [name] like he wanted to make a good impression of her. "Hmm, what should I say when we meet?"
"Give her a pick up line!" Mitsuba suggested with a cocky grin but it turned into a look of disgust after that. "But not the corny ones of course. Ew."
"Yeah, Amane!" Tsukasa added, agreeing with Mitsuba's idea. Truth to be told, Amane is a pretty charming guy and everything about him is godly so they're sure that he can initiate a pick up line. "Tell us your best pick up line!"
Amane slowly raised his hand and awkwardly smiled. "Hi...?"
Mitsuba sat there judging Amane with a look of disgust and cringe. Tsukasa's eyes twitched and he looked like he was gonna rant out on how he should make a pick up line. "Amane, you're never gonna have a girlfriend if you stick with that."
And so when they got out of the restaurant, Mitsuba and Tsukasa gave Amane a lecture about flirting with girls. You can't blame him though, he doesn't have any experience with girls so he has poor knowledge about it. "Maybe you two shouldn't pressure Senpai like that." Kou worriedly looks at Amane. "Just say hi and smile at her, talk about your backgrounds and stuffs."
Amane smiled and ruffled his junior's blonde hair. "Thanks, kid."
"Oi!" Mitsuba whirled around to the two. "We're here in Sanaol Academy." he pointed out to the gate of the school.
Amane's heart quickened in nervousness, could it be that he was finally meeting [name] behind those letters?
The choppy haired boy saw a girl going out from the school, he decided to go and ask her of she knew [name]. "Ah, excuse me." Amane called the girl.
"Yo!" she greeted back with a quirkful grin. "Whaddya need?"
"Do you know someone named [name] [surname]?" Amane asked while twiddling his fingers.
"[name]-san?" the girl rubbed her chin to think and then her eyes lit up when she knew. "Oh yes! She's from my dance class!"
"[name]-san is a dancer?" Amane tilted his head.
"Yeah, she takes dancing lessons after school." She grabbed a lollipop and plopped it inside her mouth. "But she left an hour ago after the practice."
"Oh." Amane felt like he was relying on false hope.
"Are you perhaps her boyfriend?"
Mitsuba let out a plfft sound, Tsukasa tried his best not to utter an 'oop' and Kou stood there wondering what the hell is going on. Amane's face turned red till the tips of his ears. "N-No! I-I'm just her friend, that's all—"
"Drop the cap, Amane." Tsukasa cocked his head and raised his enclosed fist. "We been knew you have a thing for her—"
"Tsukasa I swear—"
"But I think I know wheres she's heading." The girl interrupted the two twin boys from talking. "[name]-san is always heading towards that abandoned ferris wheel that she's talking about."
'The ferris wheel that I keep seeing in my dream and the postcard!'
"Do you know where this ferris wheel is?" Amane handed her the postcard which contains the picture of the ferris wheel.
"It wasn't that far but it wasn't that near either, I'll let you borrow my bike for that matter. Oh and my name is Yiren."
Yiren told Amane which way he should go to the ferris wheel. The choppy haired boy nodded at every word she says. "...And then you'll see the ferris wheel."
"That's a long way to go..." Kou commented.
Amane gets on the bike and looked at the three. He gripped on to the handle and then sets his foot down for a moment. "Tsukasa, I'll go find [name]-san, you guys should go ahead."
"Yiren-san, thank you." And so Amane started to pedal towards his destination to find [name].
"So that guy was [name]-san's pen pal." Yiren smiled, crossing her arms. She looked over to the three and grinned. "Wanna go to the arcade?"
"This is a pretty bumpy ride." Amane kept his balance steady since he's going down to a steep hill. The sky suddenly turned into a mixture of pink, purple and orange, giving it a sunset vibe. The way the wind blows against his hair as it lifted his bangs up.
Amane tried hoisting his head up to get a better look until he saw something lose his balance.
The ferris wheel.
Amane wobbled as if he was going to fall at any moment but ended up falling off the bike. He rolled down to the grassy hill, writhing in pain at the impact. Then, it stopped.
"Ahck!" Amane hissed at the pain. There was a bruise on his arm because of the fall. He couldn't get up and felt tears pricking from his eyes.
Why was he chasing someone so far? Why was he desperate to find [name]? He was almost there, almost to the ferris wheel, almost there to meeting her.
But Amane wouldn't give up that easily.
He wouldn't give up because he loves [name], and he'd come so far for looking for her.
