Haruki was your best friend that you knew you could always rely on. Ever since you guys were teenagers you‘ve had a crush on him, but you were always too scared to actually say it. You told yourself a hundred times that you would, but when you had the chance you put it off for "tomorrow".

Well, your cowardice has come to bite you in the butt. You took way too long, and Haruki ended up crushing on some blond haired, scary looking drummer who ended up joining your band. It made you sick to the stomach, but you guessed you deserved it. First come first serve, as they say. However, soon that feeling of disgusting whenever you saw Haruki all over Akihiko started to skyrocket. It wasn’t out of jealousy anymore, but because you figured out how much of a red flag Akihiko really was. You could tell something was incredibly wrong with that guy, and you started to regret not telling Haruki about your feelings even more. Maybe that could’ve prevented all of this.

You tried to get through Haruki, and he was more than willing to hear you out. You were his best friend after all, but even then he decided to give Akihiko a shot. That’s what you used to love most about Haruki, that he always saw the good in people, but right now you hated it.

It was late at night, you had no idea what Haruki was up to, but you figured he would be okay. He was a grown man after all. Until you suddenly heard your phone vibrate. You contemplated ignoring it and putting it off until tomorrow morning, but controlling your curiosity was never your strong suit.

"I‘m in your neighborhood. Can I stay for the night?"

A very unusual text from Haruki. You wouldn’t even get those even before Haruki met Akihiko, especially this late into the night. You had a bad feeling…
