BOYS' LOVE

"Hey! shun!" someone yelled from behind . "Hm?" he looked up, 'Shun kāto, 10th grade' he was known for his kind personality, and his beautiful girl-like features.
"Coming" he said as he dashed away to catch up. Literally everyone knew him in school. Some worshipped him like a God, others cursed him like a ghost.
He had everything an average 'popular-guy' wannabe wanted. Famous among girls, even boys sometimes, good at academics. Who wouldn't want these treasures?

The classroom was loud, always has been. Especially when shun's not around. He was the class president afterall.
An ordinary day, an ordinary class, the rotation is never broken. He trod back after the 4th period was over. 'My back ached, and my fingers hurt'. 'Why is school so tough?' he sighed for the hundreth time. The hallway was annoying, filled with annoying people, some flirted while some laughed. Haru always hated crowds, especially loud people, they annoyed him a hundred times faster.
Cherry trees were blooming, beautifully pink. "How stressful" he mumbled as he heard a faint sound from behind the wall. 'Hm? who's out at the back?' he thought, ge didn't really give it a thought but the sound got louder 'Is that someone crying?' he approached the channel of the sound. The window was opened wide. 'hm?' he saw a familiar figure crouching up in tears.
"hm? kāto...san?" masaki flinched. "Ngh..haru..kun?" shun looked up, his eyes were filled with fluid, his bangs were all over the place.
"Ah...so that's how you ended up here" masaki said, getting the whole situation.
"Yea......i still miss my fish a lot" shun cried.
"I'll never forgive that cat" he said, tearing up again. 'What should i say?' masaki thought, this situation was a bummer for him; who barely talks to people let alone hearing someone's trauma.
.
They sat there for a while, neither of them breaking the silence. Shun calmed down, his eyes still showed sign of weeping. "I don't really see haru-san in group activities, are you uncomfortable with them?" he asked.
The breeze blowed by them, a mild mix of temperatures. "Ah..yea... that..i don't really like them.." masaki answered, his face giving off his expression. "You know, you should take part in them, I'll guide you if you're uncomfortable" he smiled at him.
'Now that i think about it, he really does have girl-like features' masaki thought, staring off to his beautiful smile, he looked beautiful even though he just cried.
"Haru-san's name stands for 'haru' as in 'spring' right?" he said. "Hmm.. yea..but i don't really use my first name" masaki answered. He glanced at the cherry tree before them. "Ouh why?" his next question springed up.
"It's kinda feminine i guess" masaki said, resting his chin on his knees; crouching up. "No it Doesn't!! it's really beautiful if you ask me!" Shun stood up and protested against him.
His moves surprised masaki, someone said his name is beautiful. The thought made him happy, he chuckled. "Heyy what are you laughing for? it IS beautiful" shun said dumbfounded and sat down again.
. "You know, i get told that I'm girl-like alot, having 'girl-like' features"
"I even got bullied because of it" he said. His emotions were clearly showing off.
"Well you know what? I think it's really cool"
."You're brave for going through all that" masaki smiled, for after a hundred years. Shun was flustered by the sudden smile.
The petals of the cherry tree danced with the wind, the prettiest of waltz.
"Thank you, i appreciate it"
They laughed and chatted till the bell rang and they had to sprint to the class.
