Chapter 4:
Ryosuke went downstairs nervously. In the kitchen, he found Yuya cooking breakfast that made him gulp. His stomach grumbled due to hunger that gave him no choice but to eat with him.
Yuya saw him approaching the table.”Oh! Uh... Ohayo Ryosuke!” He said all tensed.
“Ohayo!” Ryosuke replied without looking at him.
Yuya put a plate of pancake in front him that made him look up to Yuya.
“Uh.. Thanks!” then he began to dig in.
“Umai!” He accidentally blurted out which made Yuya turn to him with an amused smile. Oh no! “Sorry.”
“I’m glad you liked it.” Yuya smiled to him that made Ryosuke blush with embarrassment.
Wow! He cooks great! Unlike dad who just order food for me to eat…. Oh what am I thinking?! He shook his head to remove his weird thoughts.
“Are you alright?” Yuya asked him.
“Yeah! Just spacing out.” He then continued eating. “You don’t have to drive me to school you know, I’ll be with my best friend anyway.”
“But, I promised your mom to do it, so I shall…..”
“Fine then! But we’ll have to get Chi to.” Yuya nodded then smirked with victory. Everything is under my control.
Chinen was shocked as he saw a car waiting outside his home with Ryosuke sitting in the front passenger seat and Yuya on the wheels. Chinen laughed a little.
“Hop in Chi! Hurry!” Ryosuke said slightly annoyed.
When they reached their school, Ryosuke immediately hopped off the car without even saying a word throughout their travel.
“What time will I pick you up?” Yuya asked him which made him stun.
“Uhh.. I don’t know so don’t fetch me anymore.”
“We’ll go home at 3 pm Takaki-san.” Chi suddenly replied which made Ryosuke glare to him.
“Alright then. I’ll be here by 3.” Yuya then bid his goodbye.
“Why did you do that Chi?!” Ryosuke agrily asked his best friend.
“Why not?! He’s nice enough to drive us to school ne, Ryo-chan?”
“He only did that because my mom told him to.”
“Well, if he’s a bad guy, he’d rather not follow her right?”
“It’s to early to make such conclusions Chi… Let’s go. Thanks for ruining my day even more.”
Chinen just smiled and followed Ryosuke to the campus.
Luckily Ryosuke get to be on the same class as Chinen. So he don’t get to have a hard time with their classes.
“Attention class! You have a new classmate. You can come in now Yamada-kun.”
“I’m Yamada Ryosuke. Nice to meet you!” Whispers are heard after his introduction.”Sensei, can I sit beside Chinen-kun?”
“Sure Yamada-kun.”
Ryosuke sat down at the chair beside Chinen. A boy about his age smiled at him. “I’m Nakajima Yuto. Nice to meet you!” Yuto extended his hand to Ryosuke and he gladly took it. “Nice to meet you to.”
The class went on fine then it’s time to go home.
Ryosuke walked out the campus with Chinen and Yuto. He’s glad that he made a new friend. But then he frowned when he saw Yuya’s car waiting in front of the gate.
“Your dad’s waiting for you Ryo-chan.” Chi said which made him earn a hit on the head by Ryosuke. “He’s not my dad!”
“Not your dad?” Yuto confusedly asked him.
“He’s Ryo-chan’s step dad. He just can’t accept it.” Chinen butt in again.
“Shut up Chi! I’ll get going then. Bye! See you tomorrow!” Ryosuke said wearily as he approach Yuya.
“So…. How’s class?” Takaki broke the silence. God! I sound like a father!
“Fine.” Ryosuke snorted. The hell you care?!
“Uh… you must be hungry. Let’s just eat to a restaurant ‘kay?” Yuya said try to calm the tense atmosphere between them.
“I’ll pass.i’m not hungry.” Is this guy for real?! Ryosuke’s face tensed the moment his stomach grumbled loudly which made Yuya look at him then smirked.
“I see.” Then yuya just drove a nearby restaurant.
They dropped at an Italian restaurant and Ryosuke unwillingly followed Yuya inside.
“Is Italian food alright?”
“Yeah… Just get over with it.” Yuya just shook his head to Ryosuke’s stubborness.
Ryosuke sat down with a pout on his lips. I know…. Let’s see how far you can go… Ha! You’ll regret this.
Ryosuke ordered big platters of Formaggio and Bruschettas, Crab salad, 2 platters of Insalatas, Lasagna, and NY Strawberry Cheesecake. This made Yuya gulp and sweat cold sweats. Ryosuke just gave him a grim smirk.
“I’ll just have spaghetti with meat balls. Thank you.” This brat!!!!All of those for a dinner?!
“Thanks for the treat Takaki-kun.” Ryosuke smiled at him sheepishly.
“Yeah, anytime.” Yuya just faked a smile as they wait for their expensive meal.
