[yellowhasthechest]

Mm.

[A few seconds of silence, except for the clicking noises of the phone.] For somebody who only trusts one person you look like you've got a lot of friends.

[meteorstorm]

I said one person here.

[ rolling over and reaching for his phone ]

And that's invasion of privacy.

[yellowhasthechest]

You handed it to me of your own free will, kid.

[Rolling out of reach and scrolling.] Cute girlfriend, too.

[meteorstorm]

To use the calculator.

[ a little red but he's rolling over and reaching for it ]

She's not my girlfriend.

[yellowhasthechest]

Oh, then she's single? Good to know.

[Teasing, rather obviously, but reaching out to hold him off so she can look through the rest.]

[meteorstorm]

[ that may mean he's sprawled half on top of you trying to grab it ]

She is.

[yellowhasthechest]

[I am so super not bothered by this.]

But you like her. Right?

[meteorstorm]

[ I just want my phone, give it back. that red is creeping down his neck, though ]

She's just a friend.

[yellowhasthechest]

Aw, you do.

[Not holding you back anymore, but a little puzzled.] But their uniform is different than yours is.

[meteorstorm]

[ SAYING NOTHING



taking it and stuffing it back into his pocket ]

I go to a different school.

[yellowhasthechest]

Oh. Do you just live near each other or something?

[meteorstorm]

I went to Amanogawa on exchange for a term.

[yellowhasthechest]

On exchange? Like you switched places with somebody?

[meteorstorm]

I temporarily switched places with one of their students.

[yellowhasthechest]

What for?

[meteorstorm]

A token of good will between the schools.

[ among reasons and probably the only giveaway that he's not being entirely honest is a slight tensing of his jaw ]

[yellowhasthechest]

So ... bullshit?

[meteorstorm]

To put it in vulgar terms.

[yellowhasthechest]

[Looking over at you like she kind of knows you're not being totally honest, but saying nothing.]

[meteorstorm]

[ we may be getting along at the moment but that doesn't mean I'm going to tell you all of my secrets ]

I was only there a few months.

[yellowhasthechest]

Pretty popular for somebody just passing through.

[meteorstorm]

[ a little stiffly ]

Only toward the end.

[yellowhasthechest]

What, you mean you weren't friendly with people at first?

[Deadpan.] That's a shocker.

[meteorstorm]

[ making a face at you

and going through his phone again to find one of him and Jirou

whether they both actually just look super happy

and handing it back ]

I was using them.

[yellowhasthechest]

[Makes a face right back before looking at it for ... actually a pretty long few seconds. She does hand it back, though, looking out over the water instead of at him.]

Do they know that?
