Chapter Text
"Okay, what?!"
Ryusuke pulled away from a stunned speechless Koyuki. "Oh, hey Nikki. Didn't see you there." He hummed, throwing his arm around the short boy. "Have you met my boyfriend, Koyuki?"
"Wha—"
"Yes, his boyfriend, a very recent development." Taira said monotonically, standing up and going over to the shell-shocked girl. "This must be a lot for you to take in. So, why won't you let Chiba buy you a drink," he hummed, gesturing her towards the afro singer. "And Ryusuke? Yeah, a word?"
The ravenette didn't seem too keen to have 'a word' with Taira. He's pretty sure it was going to be more than a single word. "Actually, I was thinking..."
"That yes, you will." Taira grabbed his arm, "Back door, now. Yuji, your best friend."
Saku gave him a thumbs up, before going over to Koyuki and waved a hand in front of his face.
As soon as they exited the shack, Taira went down on Ryusuke. "What the actual damn fuck, Minami?!"
"Hey, whoa!" The ravenette huffed, putting his hands up defensively. "It was your idea."
"And what made you think it would be okay using Koyuki for this?"
Ryusuke narrowed his eyes, "Dude, using anyone for this isn't okay." He said pointedly, "But I just figured it would be less complicated to explain it to Koyuki than to look for some random girl to play the part."
"Start explaining how it's any less complicated." Taira deadpanned, crossing his arm and not looking at all mollified. "He's a guy. He's your band mate, and even more so, your friend. Our friend."
Ryusuke waved a dismissive hand, "And that's how it's less complicated," He said. "We're friends. I'll just explain it to him. And he'll get it. You're the one making it all complicated and a big deal. Now let's head back inside so I can undo it."
The ravenette turned back to the door, and opened it. He raised a brow as Saku was reading a Manga on a bean bag, and Koyuki was missing.
"Saku, where's Koyuki gone?"
The drummer looked up from the Manga, "He went home," He said, his tone not betraying anything, "Told me that he never expected Ryusuke to return his feelings, and he needs some time to get himself together. Seeing as you sent Chiba out to calm that girl down, he figured he'd have time to collect himself for a rehearsal session later."
Ryusuke stopped listening as the words 'returned his feelings' left Saku's mouth. Taira continued to glare at the lead guitarist.
"Let me just say," The blond huffed, crossing arms. "if Koyuki leaves and forms a 'Ryusuke-less' band, I'm going to that one."
Saku raised his hand, "Seconded."
