"Smoking is bad for your health"

Shin's voice called out, his fingers swiftly pulling out the cigarette between Masa's fingers. His eyes narrowed, before leaning away as he crossed his arms together in a scolding manner. Shin would never understand people who smokes, why bother to put your life at risk for a moment of addiction?

"Best friends" was it? Well, all their friends do know that the two of them were awfully close, though the both of them were men so it was merely brushed off as "friendship"

Friendship...?

Well for Shin it is friendship, but is that what Masa really thinks? Is that what the man who always look at Shin lovingly thinks? Is that the man who had memorized Shin like the back of his hand thinks? Was it truly casual?

The both of them met years ago, they were still in middle school then. Shin was the awfully quiet guy he is, while Masa was a sociable delinquent. Around that time, the two of them met coincidentally at the rooftop. Bit by bit they clinked, they didn't even realize that at this point- they only went to the rooftop to talk and chat with each other

Years of being friends, and years of one sided affection. Shin who loves Emma, and Masa who loves Shin yet refuse to accept it

Fate was truly an odd thing
