You met Chigiri in Blue Lock- obviously an all boys program. But you were gay, so it was kind of awkward when the boys talked about girls.
You noticed Chigiri was uncomfortable as well during those moments and you two kinda laughed about it.
Eventually, you slowly developed a crush on him. A big crush. But you couldn’t tell anyone. How would they feel having a gay player in an all boys program? You don’t even want to know how they could react.
But you trusted Chigiri enough to tell him. And he admitted he was gay too. You both laughed about it at the time, but the tension between you two was obvious.
So when you joined Manshine City, you two started to date. In secret of course, how would your friends- or even the public- react to two gay football players? Especially two who just won’t the U-20 game a couple weeks ago?
It was practice and you both were in the locker room hiding from everyone else getting “ready”. But in truth, you two just wanted to have some alone time where you can be lovey dovey.
You two both sneak into one of the showers to just whisper and cuddle.
Chigiri: “How long do we have to keep this up? Being “best friends”?”
You tell him until you both retire, and then you can come out but he was annoyed.
Chigiri: “Ugh, this is so annoying… I wish… I wish everyone could be more accepting. I wish we could come out and we wouldn’t lose fans and ruin the reputation of our team.”
He sighs and slumps to the ground, not even nervous that you two could get caught since there were two feet in the shower- but even then you could just say you were “skipping practice” together- which is half true.
