Chapter 6 - October's Bloomed more than Fuyu's

A knock on the door caused Ren to stir, fluttering his swollen, red eyes open glancing around the room. Sunlight pouring through the slightly open window, with a cool breeze chilling the room. The knocking continued, forcing Ren out of bed to stand on trembling legs as he stumbled towards the door. Tearing the door open, Ren sleepily glanced out to the source of the repetitive knocking, not noticing the blushing figure as he questioned the figure with a yawn, "Yes? How can I help you?" Ren spoke as he started stretching, lifting his arms above his head. "I-uh C-Chīsai.," he stated covering his eyes with his hands. "Oh! Kai, what's up? It's pretty early for you to be knocking on my door." Ren giggled, pulling his arms behind his head to do one final stretch. Kane reached out towards the hem of his shirt pulling downwards as his eyes were focused on the corner of the room. Ren startled, pushing him away "Kai! What are you doing!? Let go!" Kane shook his head "Chīsai, I-I wish I cou-could.. but U-uh... W-what are y-you wea-wearing.." Ren stopped flailing, glancing down at his attire. He was still in his 'pajama's'. A mid-thigh shirt with knee-high socks, it's not what he normally wore, it was his shirt and socks from yesterday. He was so mentally tired from all the events yesterday he just stripped his pants and fell asleep. "Aah! Fuck, I'm so sorry! M-move so I can change!" Ren shouted, letting Kane remove his hands so he could shut the door. Quickly grabbing a pair of grey joggers and sliding them over his legs, he walked back to the door cracking it to see if Kane was still waiting outside, "K-Kai... I'm so so sorry when you were knocking I was still asleep." Kane shook his head as he spoke, still blushing rather deeply "No, it's fine! Really, You just surprised me is all." Ren nodded, "Well, we've made it this far. What did you need this early Kai?" Kane scratched the back of his neck, clearing his throat. "Ah, yeah. Um, well. I felt bad about scaring you yesterday so I wanted to come by and apologize, see if there's anything I could do to make it up to you?" Ren blushed, as a force of habit, he pushed back yesterday's events as far as he could to forget them. The closeness made his heart race and his face glow red with Kane's hand on his waist and his breathing in his ear. "O-oh yeah. Uh well, you didn't scare me... But, if you feel like you need to make something up, I would like to go out today. Would wanna start the day with a coffee? Since it's 9 am?" Kane smiled, nodding his head "Yeah, that sounds great. Your favorite place?" nodding his head, his smile and his sleepy half-lidded eyes causing Kane's heart to race. "Okay, meet downstairs in 30? So you can get dressed." Ren hummed in agreement as Kane turned around and walked down the hallway. Ren closed his door lightly, sliding his back down to sit on the floor, crossing his knees as he pulled them to his chest. "Taking me out huh.." he chuckled "if only it could be a date.."

Kane was pacing rapidly in the common room, so he wasn't scared. But, then what was his face about?, Kane just wanted to apologize, he never thought Chīsai would want to go out with him today. Out of momentary guilt from yesterday He accepted the invite, no questions asked but should he consider this a friendly hangout or a date? Kane ran his hands through his hair, sighing in frustration "Fuck it, I'll let it be for now." He whispered "Hm? Let what be, Kai?" Kane whipped his head around to see Chīsai, dressed so beautifully in autumn colors corresponding perfectly with his hair. Brown ankle boots, clean-cut black pants with his yellowish-orange coat that ran down to his thighs with a deep green turtle neck. Kane was flustered as he attempted hiding his approaching blush to his cheeks, how the fuck is he goddamn pretty? hearing soft giggling, his eyes met Ren's loving gaze "Kai? Are you alright? Your spacing." Kane's eyes never diverting from Chīsai as he nodded and hummed that he was okay. Ren shrugged it off as he walked down the rest of the stairs. "Alright then, should we head to the coffee shop?" he asked walking past Kane towards the door, stopping at the handle to face Kane barring a beautiful smile. "Well, Kai? You ready?" Kane still not speaking a word nodded as he made his way towards the door.

Snapping out of his gaze along the walk towards the coffee shop, the two were talking and laughing, Kane started rem-mincing about the happy times from his childhood, Ren smiled for his memories, but he never speaks about his childhood. Somehow along the way, their hands intertwined together as they walked only letting go as Kane opened the door of the shop letting Ren walk inside and find a table. Kane coming back with two coffees in hand, one Hazelnut Late, with espresso and Ren's favorite fall-time drink, a pumpkin frappe with extra whipped cream and cinnamon dolce sprinkled on top. Kane sitting slowly as to not spill the drinks, "You like this pumpkin frappe right?" Ren nodded, "Yeah I'm surprised you remembered.." Kane chuckled as he set the drinks down in front of them, "so, what did you want to talk about now?" Ren asked as he sucked his coffee through his straw. Kane shrugged, taking a moment to think over his options, he did have one question that bothered him "Well, I never asked because it seemed rude. But, what's your natural hair color? And why dye it green?" Ren gulped his coffee hard, causing him to choke. "Wh-what? Why would you wanna know that?" Kane looked back at Ren, as he brought his cup to his lips taking a small sip, the coffee slightly burning his tongue. "I don't know. It just bothered me. I really like the green on you. It's just, I guess I was curious." Ren stared for a moment before he sighed. "Well, I dyed my hair green because my natural hair gave me too much-unwanted attention. People said it 'brought out my eyes beautifully' and I didn't want it. So I dyed it green." Kane nodded, clearing his throat from the hot coffee that slithered down. "And your natural color?" Taking another sip through his straw, he didn't know if he was bracing himself for the sudden questions or if he wanted to avoid them altogether, but he ultimately answered however reluctant "A medium copper-red." He stated bluntly. Kane quirked his brow "That sounds pretty on you but, I don't understand how that got you unwanted attention?" Ren sighed "My hair isn't naturally straight, it's coiled curls. And people loved how 'perfect' it looked and I guess my green eyes just put 'my look' together? I don't know, people were always staring at me and I hated it, so I dyed my hair the color of my eyes since it matched and I straighten my hair so it's not coily anymore." Kane smiled, picturing that look on Ren, yeah I could see him getting looked at all the time if he looked that good., "I understand. Personally, I think you look gorgeous either way, but I wouldn't mind seeing your natural hair one day." Ren blushed, gulping his coffee, "U-uh yeah? Maybe I'll stop dying it someday and you can see it." Kane nodded. "Can I know your name yet?" Ren stared back at Kane, before erupting into laughter "Not A Chance Kai."

Quickly leaving the coffee shop the duo walked the streets in awe of the small town cascading itself in decorations. "I love fall, its the most beautiful time of year." Ren sighed, his eyes diverted to every leaf falling from the trees, instinctively searching for the orange leaves first. "Yeah, it really is a unique season," Kane whispered as he watched Chisai twirling in the falling leaves, the breeze making his coat slightly float behind him. Ren coming to a stop, breathing in the cool air turning to Kane with a smile "So what do you want to do now?" he asked, fumbling with the front of his coat. "Well it is October, would you like to see the Fuyu's in bloom?" Kane watched his eyes light up at the suggestion. "R-really? that seems like something couples would do..." trailing off as he spoke. Kane chuckled, placing his hand in the tufts of green hair ruffling them, " I don't mind doing this with you. It sounds fun." Kane smiled his eyes closed and head cocked to the side. A red hue creeping onto the small greenette, nodding his head with his eyes locked onto the ground. Pulling at the hand still placed in his hair, before locking his eyes with Kane "Are you sure Kai? The place we'd have to go, is over an hour away." Kane nodded, "Yeah I'm sure, you seem really eager to see them. Besides i wouldn't of suggested this if i didnt want to go myself." Ren still holding onto his hand, Kane smiled as he wrapped their hands together "Let's not waste more time, Yeah?" Kane turned to walk on the pavement towards the station, gently pulling Ren with him, Ren still wearing the deep red hue on his cheeks. "Alright Kai. Lets go!" speeding to walk beside Kane with hands still intertwined.

Arriving at the station Kane purchased both tickets, much to Ren's dismay. "Kai! I could of bought my own ticket! you didn't need to buy mine too!" Ren pouted crossing his arms to his chest, puffing his cheeks. Kane laughed gripping onto Ren's hand. "Oh come on Chisai, i wanted to buy 'em. Dont make a big deal out of it." Ren glared at Kane in annoyance before seeing Kane's bright smile, huffing as he turned his head with a blush cascading his cheeks again. "Fine. Whatever. But im buying the tickets to see the Fuyu's!" Kane chuckled, squeezing Ren's hand "Alright Chisai, whatever you want." The train arrived rather quickly and both males quickly stepped onto the train, quickly moving through different cars to find seats. "C'mon Chisai, seats on this train fill up quick." Kane was dragging Ren behind him, the greenette barely able to keep up. "Kai! Im gonna fall! Slow down!" Suddenly Ren collided with Kane's back. Rubbing the font of his forehead "Ow. Kai what was that for?" No answer, Ren peeked around Kane's back seeing his eyes were fixated towards a specific direction. Following the direction Ren spotted a beautiful woman. Pastel purple hair, tiny waist decent sized bust, with her naturally rosy cheeks. , Oh. Thats why he's looking... She is beautiful, Kane gripped onto Ren's hand. Looking up towards Kane, his face wore a scowl. "C'mon Chisai, lets go to a different car." Quickly pulling him away from the car, before a sweet voice spoke in a whisper causing Kane to stop his movements yet again. "Kane? Is that you?" huffing as he turned around "Katsumi, What do you want?" He spat "Oh! It is you! I havent seen you in forever!" Kane scoffed rolling his eyes "Couldn't imagine why that would be. What do you want?" Katsumi placed her hand on Kane's arm rubbing upwards as she spoke "Oh, i just wanted to say Hi-" stepping closer, wrapping her arms around his neck and pressing her breast into his chest, "And i would love to get together sometime. Its always amazing, being with you Kae-Kae" Kane gagged, pushing her off of him, "No fucking thank you, not interested. Dont know where your ass has been or whats been IN your ass since i last saw you." A scowl presented on her face, she opened her mouth to protest being cut off by a soft melodic giggle. Kane smiled seeing the clear annoyance on her face, glancing behind his back. "Chisai, why are you hiding behind me?" Ren pulled himself around Kane, his eyes meeting viscous lilacs. "O-oh i didnt want to interrupt your Conversation Kai." Wrapping his arm behind his back to pull him forward "Dont worry about that, you were the best part of this bothersome coversation." Ren placed his hand on the side of his chest as he smiled up to Kane. "Oh~ Now i see.." Kane whipped his head back toward Katsumi. wearing a menacing scowl "And what is it you think you fucking see.." Katsumi busted into laughter, a laugh that made your skin crawl. "Your gay now? How do your parents feel about that Kae-Kae?" Kane released Ren to walk to Katsumi and whisper in her ear, Ren couldnt hear what they were talking about, but he knew Kane was threatening her, color had drained from her face, the color came back when Kane released her. "Now leave Katsumi. You werent wanted here." Waving one hand absentmindedly towards Kane "I am, I am. But, can i at least know your name there greenie?" Katsumi asked pointing at Ren. Shaking his head "Uh, well you can call me what you want. I dont mind." Katsumi raised her brow and glanced between Kane and Ren "I cant know your name? Thats kind of rude." Ren shook his head "I'm sorry you feel that way, but not just anyone can know my name, So sorry..." Katsumi wore a small smile to her face before wiping it off and pointing to Kane. "Oh well, i'm not sure i understand why, If Kae-Kae knows your name im not sure why i cant. We were like besties growing up!" Kane shook his head "No we werent, you were fucking annoying as a kid, even more so now." scoffing as he rolled his eyes. Ren stepping back slightly watching the exchange between the two, Katsumi closing the gap between them every chance she got as he would step back or push her away, he could see how annoyed Kai was just being in her presence, which made him very unsettled. "Katsumi, stop. I already asked you to go away. Im here with someone." Kane spoke grabbing her wrist pushing her away from him, her disdainful glare boring into Ren. "Yeah, i can see that. Migurushi over there sure is your type." she scoffed, Migurushi... why that name of all the ones she could pick?, Kane gripped onto her shoulders yelling in her face as she laughed it off, Ren's eyes were glued to the floor his hands tightly gripping into fist. "Katsumi! What the fuck is wrong with you!? You can't go and call someone repulsive, your a piece of shit for that." Katsumi still laughing, finding nothing but humor to the situation she caused. "Let go." a vicious tone pulled Kane away from Katsumi. Looking at Ren, his green eyes were clouded and his face wearing a menacing smile. , Oh fuck, "C'mon Kane, lets go." Gripping on to his hand and pulling him away "Hey! I wasnt done talking to him! Fucking Migurushi!" throwing her hands in the air protesting as they walked away. Opening the door, glancing back at Katsumi "Ya know, if your gonna call anyone Repulsive, you should really look in the mirror bitch. Pressing your body on him like he fucking wants you.-" putting a finger in front of his lips as he opened his mouth faking gagging as he pushed his finger behind his teeth. "That's fucking pathetic." Walking through the door, closing it behind him. "What in the actual fuck." Katsumi stared at the door before twisting around to walk back to her seat whispering as she sat "Fucking Migurushi. I'll get you back. You have no fucking idea who you just embarrassed. And ill bring it back, ten fold."
