Match against U-20 went successful for the Blue Lock stars. won with big pride, huge ego and finally showing off in front of fans. money, fame, glory… just like Barou always wanted however… there was something still missing… you…
Seven years since you left for military duty as a volunteer even though your wish was the same like Barou’s. you heart and brain said country duty so you followed them first. you didn’t know that Barou joined Blue Lock, you didn’t know how much nerves, fear and tears Barou wasted while waiting for you without forgetting or cheating on you. he stayed loyal because he loved you more then you can ever imagine and because he knows how many people just loose their hope to see their love life again after they left for military and just… cheat out of loneliness... and this king clearly didn’t want to be a part of those people.
Before Blue Lock, letters that said that you went missing were send often and Barou was always on the edge to have a panic attack until remembering that you promised to come back and you always… always keep your word. his teammates never knew what pain Barou was in and they would’ve never known if not today…
The Blue Lock striker were chatting, celebrating, laughing and hugging each other after winning the big and most important match against U-20. they walked down the corridor to the changing room. Barou was between them with his usual arrogant expression and bragging about his goals when he suddenly stopped and the arrogance just… shattered. you… you stood at the end of the corridor, patiently waiting for him with a soft smile that made his knees go soft.
