Chapter Text

Reki woke up at sound of birds chirping outside. He remembered going to bed early, he was tired since he had just returned from a trip that was supposed to be relaxing but ended up being just the opposite and he hadn't even undone his bag, in fact he had even slept in his clothes.

The first thing he did was grab his phone and plug it since he had forgotten to and it was almost dead, then he checked the time -it was 6 am- and he decided to text Langa.

 

REKI: gm langaaa ^^

 

Which the other boy almost immediately answered:

 

LANGA: Good morning Reki :)

Have you slept well?

 

Then the canadian sent a selfie of himself smiling with a sleepy face and doing a peace sign. And reki almost fainted.

Because he had just figured out his feelings for his best friend a few days ago and this felt like a hate crime to him. Not that he could blame the blue haired boy for it, of course. He was being careful not to let him know about his true feelings because he was afraid of ruining their friendship so he decided to send him a similar pic as a response. Little did he know that the other boy almost fell off his bed for the exact same reason.

The redhead decided to check the time again, only 30 min had passed but he had to go take a shower and prepare for school, so he said bye to his friend and left his room.

Langa, who had already prepared everything, carefully put his phone down and proceeded to let out a muffled scream on his pillow, since his mother had left early for work and there was no one who could hear him. He had been aware of his crush on the red boy for, what now? a month? But he had kept it a secret. Of course. He wasn't planning on ruining everything. Not again.

He stayed like that, with his head buried into his pillow until he received a message from Reki saying he was leaving his house so he got up from his bed, took his school bag and his skate and went to meet Reki on their usual spot.

His friend showed up a few minutes later riding his skateboard with his particular wide smile, which Langa assured was brighter than the sun. 

"This lighting makes him look handsome" Reki thought while slightly blushing as he was getting closer to the point where langa was.

Then they greeted eachother and made their way to school.

The day went pretty normal, they got called out for talking in class a few times, got chased by the teachers for using their skates, nothing unusual.


When school finished, the two boys decided to spend their afternoon at the skatepark practicing some new tricks for an upcoming S race.

Lately, Reki noticed Langa was learning REALLY fast, he could almost equal his level. He didn't want to admit it because he was really proud of his friend, but he was scared that he could be left behind.

OUCH-

He got distracted form his thoughts because his friend had fallen while trying to do a considerably difficult trick.

-Langa! What were you thinking about? This trick is really dangerous, you could've hurt yourself badly!

-But Adam does it! And I want to beat him!

Reki flinched at that name. He definitely didn't want his best friend racing against that psychopath and getting into a serious accident.
