One morning; before class

Karou helped apply bandages over Yukoji’s cuts and bruises from getting beat up last night, since he couldn’t do it on his own. The two guys have been friends for 3 years and Karou began developing feelings for him, but sadly, Yukoji’s too focused on trying to make his parents proud to even notice his feelings. They sat in silence; Yukoji contemplated about his “mistakes” last night, whereas Karou just gazed into his emerald eyes, falling more in love with the boy. But first, he had to make sure that he’s alright now. Karou gently patted his shoulder and spoke softly, not wanting to startle him.

“There… You okay now?”
