Hey there :) If you clicked on this story then you're awesome ^_^
Anyways, this is (very, very) loosely based on an experience I once had. (Fake Spoiler: I got lost in a theme park)
This part is very much exposition, but I will have the next part written soon. I cut it off because it got a lot longer than I had expected.
Hope you like it!
Ritsu was staring at his father with wider-than-usual emerald eyes. "You're really giving me these tickets?" he said for the 5th time.
"Yes," replied his father, his smile tinged with exasperation. "They were originally for your mother and I, but I think you need some time for yourself. Being in high school doesn't mean you shouldn't have fun!" It was easier for Onodera-chichi to say that with his wife on a business trip. Onodera-haha was formidable. Nevertheless, Ritsu was glad for the opportunity. "Besides, I dare say that there's a friend you might want to take. Or even a special someone." Ritsu really hoped he was imagining the knowing sparkle in his father's eyes.
But who cared? He now had tickets to his favorite roller coaster park. "Yah!" he yelled, punching the air. Ritsu admired the gold lettering that read "Suzuki-san's Ichigo Farm*". And he knew exactly who to ask.
Ritsu hung out after school at the library like always. He wandered over to the corner table where Saga-san sat and plopped down awkwardly. Saga looked up with his usual stoic expression. Ritsu hesitated for a few moments, pink in the face, and then took a deep breath. "Wanna go to Suzuki-san's Ichigo Farm with me?"
"What?" said Saga, looking half-puzzled, half-amused.
Ritsu looked mortified at having to repeat himself. He started again, but Saga cut across him.
"No, it's just that... that name's really funny. Doesn't that sound like the name of a kiddy place?" said Saga, starting to genuinely laugh.
"N-no it isn't!" flared up Ritsu. At the same time, he was amazed at how musical Saga's laugh sounded. It was the first time he heard it, and found himself wanting to hear it again, and again...
"Why so suddenly though?" said Saga.
"I just thought... I mean, I had an extra ticket... maybe we could celebrate our 2-week anniversary?" stammered Ritsu.
Saga contemplated for a moment, and then said, "Sure, why not? I'll go." Anything was better than staying at home with his parents, Saga grimacing at the very thought of them.
Ritsu flushed happily. "Okay!"
Ritsu woke up at 8 AM to the sound of a motorcycle revving in his runway. He knew it was Saga, and so threw on some clothes and ran down to meet him. "Get on the back," said Saga. Ritsu did as he was told, but as they started moving, he was nervous about holding onto Saga so close. Then Saga sped up.
Ritsu, thrown onto Saga's back, clutched tightly onto him for balance. Saga's body was warm. So warm that it burned Ritsu's whole being...
*If anyone found the amusement park name as funny as Saga did, it's a parody off of Knott's Berry Farm, amusement park in the US. Also a nod to Junjou Romantica.
Anyway, hope you found it okay. If any of the characters are OOC, I apologize. I'm quite a novice at this fanfic stuff :3
Please review! :D
