It all starts with a storm that comes out of nowhere. That is, if you don't check the weather ahead of time, which Tegoshi hadn't because it's more fun that way and Koyama hadn't because he'd been in a rush. So, that leaves Koyama staring worriedly out the window as the rain beats down against it, trying to figure out what to do when the day is over, which it almost is.

It had been an easy day by all accounts: a few photo shoots, and they were given some cameras as well, to take pictures of each other in their free time (though these were confiscated after the third game of picture tag). Massu had finished first, rushing out as the storm clouds were gathering, and Ryo and Shige had left soon after, Ryo commandeering Shige's umbrella and Shige barely keeping up beside him.

So Koyama’s left trying to figure out what he should do. Going home in the rain, without an umbrella, is an unappealing choice. Shige’s already gone, or else he could have just asked to crash at his place. Tegoshi bounces by, and for a moment Koyama considers asking him, before remembering Tegoshi's habit of staying over with someone else when it storms, though usually that someone is Massu, who’s already gone.

Anyway, Yamapi is his last resort, Koyama figures at last. By the time he’s come to this conclusion, Tegoshi is already helping Yamapi pack up his things and smiling that cute Tegoshi smile that nobody with a soul can resist. Koyama is done for. Doomed. Left to have the rain soak him through to his bones and- "You're coming too, right Koyama?" Tegoshi's words burst through Koyama's internal monologue of misery, and when he looks up, he sees Tegoshi's smile beaming back at him. "That's okay, right Yamapi?"

"Okay," Koyama and Yamapi say in unison, and when Tegoshi announces that he thinks a piggyback is in order for his great problem-solving skills, Yamapi holds Koyama's bag while he carries Tegoshi to the door, all the while complaining about how heavy Tegoshi is getting (which he is quick to add is a good thing) and oh, how fast they grow up (a bad one). Tegoshi just laughs and tightens his hold around Koyama's neck, nuzzling his nose against Koyama's shoulder happily.

When they get to the door, Tegoshi says, "Let's race," so they do. By the time they get to the train station, they're all soaked to the bone. Koyama realizes now they could have just asked around to see if they could have borrowed a few umbrellas, but it's a little too late for that now. They spend the ride back to Yamapi's place in cold, wet silence. Koyama keeps his arm around Tegoshi's shoulders in a feeble attempt to stop him from shivering, and Yamapi is half-asleep on Koyama's other side, mumbling to himself about food.

Yamapi stays half-asleep as Koyama leads him from the station to his door, where Tegoshi is more than happy to dig through Yamapi's pockets for his keys. Koyama thinks about giving Shige a call to make sure he made it home safely. Then he remembers that Shige left with Ryo and makes a mental note to definitely give Shige a call, after the three of them are all inside Yamapi's apartment and out of their wet clothes.

Two minutes later, Tegoshi has finally maneuvered the key out of Yamapi's pocket and the three of them are shuffling inside. The sound of the door closing behind them, oddly enough, wakes Yamapi up instantly, and he blinks rapidly a few times, as though catching his brain up with what's going on. "Thanks again for letting us spend the night," Tegoshi says, helping Yamapi out of his shoes, since he doesn’t seem to be doing it himself, what with his just standing there and blinking. "Can I go see if you have clothes to lend us? Thanks!"

"Um," Yamapi says, to no one in particular, standing in his socks in a puddle in his front hallway while Tegoshi forages through his place. A minute later, Tegoshi throws a few towels in their general direction, and happily reports that he's found enough clothes for all of them.

Koyama looks to Yamapi in a silent question of what to do, only to find Yamapi staring back with the exact same expression on his face. So Koyama says, "You and Tegoshi should go get changed, so you don't catch cold, and I'll find us something to eat, okay?"

Yamapi looks thoughtful for a moment, and then nods decisively. Koyama smiles as they amble obediently away. He's just finished digging through Yamapi's cupboards (and realizing that, yes, he really does have absolutely nothing to eat) when Yamapi and Tegoshi waltz back out in dry clothes, though Tegoshi's still rubbing at his hair with a towel. Yamapi checks his answering machine, and it rattles off ten different but equally useless messages, all from Jin.

Yamapi checking his messages reminds Koyama to call Shige. The phone rings for about a minute before Shige finally picks up. "Hello?"

"Hi, Shige! I'm calling to make sure you made it home okay, did you? You didn't catch a cold or anything? Make sure you have something to eat! Do you have enough food? Yamapi doesn't have any. Is Ryo there with you?" Koyama says, all in one breath, before Shige can interrupt him.

"Yes, no, yes, yes, and I'm rolling my eyes at you, I hope you know," Shige answers, trying to sound annoyed. "Wait, you're at Yamapi's? One minute- hey, Ryo, if you could've gone to Yamapi's, why did to come with me?"

"Pi has no food!" Koyama hears Ryo say loudly in the background. Then there's a moment of shuffling noises and Ryo must've taken the phone from Shige because his voice is much clearer when he says, laughing, "Bye now, mother hen, Shige can't talk anymore- ooh, Shige, make these! It'll be fun to see how many you can fit in your mouth, won't it?"

"Save me!" Shige says pitifully from the background.

"Okay, well, you two have fun," Koyama says cheerfully, and snaps his phone shut, content with their replies.

Yamapi wanders into the kitchen then, with Tegoshi trailing behind him, tugging up a pair of huge pajama bottoms that Koyama distinctly remembers Massu getting for Yamapi on his last birthday. Yamapi points to the phone and says, "Was that Ryo-chan? He ate all my food."

"You should have said earlier you have no food," Koyama says, and goes to open Yamapi's empty fridge again, as though that will help food magically appear in it. Koyama frowns at the fridge, but then imagines it frowning back, which makes him smile again.

Yamapi just shrugs a bit, but Tegoshi says, "It doesn't matter! We can just order in, right? There's that great place just around the corner, right?"

"That place doesn't deliver," Yamapi tells him mournfully, as though this is a grave error in the way of the universe.

"Huh?" Tegoshi asks, taking Koyama's cell phone to call. "It does too! I've ordered from there before and they delivered for me. Doesn't everyone deliver?"

"Only for you," Koyama says laughing, and pats Tegoshi on the head happily. Tegoshi beams.

It takes only ten minutes for the food to get there. Then the delivery woman, whom Yamapi recognizes as the owner of the shop, spends an additional ten minutes fawning over what a nice boy Tegoshi is. When she finally leaves, Yamapi sets up the food in front of his couch in what looks like a complicated system involving his favourite foods being the closest and his least favourite ones farther away. Koyama has the duty of getting them all drinks, and Tegoshi rummages around Yamapi's bedrooms for pillows.

"Mmm, food," Yamapi says, face blissful as he attacks the various containers. Koyama sits down beside him on the couch and reminds him to chew.

Tegoshi comes back then with four pillows, and he arranges them in a nest on the floor across from the couch, flopping down on them comfortably when he's finished. Yamapi hands him a container as soon as he does and says, "You'll like this."

"Thank you!" Tegoshi chirps. Koyama sees him bite back his smile a bit so that it doesn't explode with open adoration for Yamapi.

They eat mostly in silence, though there's the occasional exclamation of how tasty the food is, a habit grown out of always doing it for the cameras, perhaps. The silence doesn't last long, mostly because the food doesn't last long. Koyama moves to clean up, but Yamapi tells him not to, and they just stack up the empty containers and their glasses in precarious piles off to the side. "You should go get changed and cleaned up, too," Yamapi says, eyeing Koyama and hooking his thumb towards his bathroom even though Koyama knows where it is. "Tegoshi left you a change of clothes in there when he got his."

"Are you sure it's okay?" Koyama asks, knowing that not everyone likes having other people wear their clothes- Shige being point in case, always making Koyama keep a change of clothes at his place, just in case.

Yamapi just gives him bug eyes and nods as though the answer is obvious already. Tegoshi laughs and pulls himself up from the floor to the couch so he can poke Yamapi in the cheek.

The clothes that Tegoshi left out hang strangely on Koyama, and he takes a moment to mourn his lack of muscles and be impressed by Yamapi's. When he walks out of the bathroom, Yamapi and Tegoshi are hanging over the back of the couch and staring at him, so he pretends to walk like a runway model. He throws a pose, and the two of them laugh, Yamapi clapping and Tegoshi pretending to take pictures.

They play stupid card games the rest of the night after they fail to agree on a movie. Koyama loses a lot, and Tegoshi keeps trying to enforce a stripping rule to make the game more interesting, and Yamapi's the first to notice that they've been playing with two missing cards. Koyama sets out to counting them all to figure out which two, when Yamapi says to Tegoshi suddenly, "You don't like storms, do you?"

"How- no, I don't," Tegoshi says, scrubs the back of his neck with one hand, looks down at his feet. Koyama continues counting the cards, but slower now, his eyes flicking between the two of them.

"Don't look down," Yamapi says, and he reaches out a hand to grab Tegoshi's. "You just always seem to stay with someone else when it storms. I just noticed. I was just curious. Sorry."

"S'okay," Tegoshi mumbles, still not meeting anyone’s eyes. Koyama isn't sure, but he thinks he sees Yamapi give Tegoshi's hand a squeeze.

Tegoshi's phone beeps and his head snaps up, but he hesitates to get it, looking down at the hand that Yamapi's holding securely. "I'll get it," Koyama offers with a small smile and stands, letting his hand run through Tegoshi's hair to mess it up a bit as he passes.

Koyama grabs Tegoshi's phone quickly, and while walking back he flips it open automatically. It informs him cheerily that Tegoshi has one new text message. "Text," he says when he hands it to Tegoshi, who takes it with his free hand. Beside him, Yamapi looks just about to fall asleep.

"It's Massu," Tegoshi says happily, and although he says it aloud, Koyama's pretty sure he's talking to himself. "I'll text back that I'm okay and he doesn't have to worry. I'll add two smiley faces. That way he definitely won't worry; good!"

When Tegoshi's done typing in his message, the three of them decide wordlessly and simultaneously that work starts early for all of them tomorrow and that there's only so many card games you can play before it gets boring and that they should probably go to sleep. Tegoshi throws around the pillows on the floor, and Yamapi quickly grabs a few blankets and throws them over as well.

In the middle of the night, Koyama wakes up when Tegoshi's hand whaps him in the face. When the night had began, Tegoshi had claimed the couch and Koyama a chair, although Yamapi had looked perfectly content flailed out on the floor with two of the four pillows (an honor earned by janken). But when Koyama wakes up, he is stuck in the middle, Tegoshi squished between him and the couch and Yamapi on his other side, with no recollection of moving from the chair, or any idea how Tegoshi fell off the couch without waking up. Groggily, Koyama decides it’s a mystery that can wait until morning.

The next time Koyama wakes up, it’s morning and most of the blankets and pillows have been kicked away. Tegoshi is sitting cross-legged on the chair and brushing his hair, and he waves when he notices Koyama. Yamapi emerges from the bedroom a few minutes later, looking more like a kid that just wants to go back to sleep than an idol who has to be at work in- Koyama glances at a clock- forty-five minutes.

Koyama checks his messages. From Shige he’s got a picture, Shige with his cheeks puffed out, full of food, and Ryo flashing a huge smile from beside him. The accompanying text of "You'll have to imagine my maniacal laughter yourself" is obviously from Ryo.

All in all, as the three of them are rushing out the door not too long afterwards, Koyama finds himself inexplicably happy. Nothing really has happened, they'd just sat around, nothing memorable, but Koyama finds himself happy that it had happened, nonetheless. It’s just too bad- too bad it hadn't been planned, too bad that it couldn't've been all six of them instead of just three. So the next time it’s planned to storm, Koyama does check the weather beforehand. It gives him a chance to give Yamapi a call ahead- and the other members, too. Six people are better than three, after all.
