When we got to the place, it was already full of people. Toma's girlfriend was already outside the gates waiting for him. As we got down from the car, Cami immediately goes to us. "Toma!" She hugs him tightly.
Looking at them, they really look good together.
"Hahaha! You missed me already?"
"Duh, who wouldn't miss a 'perfect' boyfriend like you?"
Watching them flirt made me a bit uncomfortable. They probably forgot about my existense. Now I feel bad for Toma about the time I was having my moment with Xia infront of him last time.
"Oh right! Here's my bestfriend, Yuji." Toma finally introduced me to his girlfriend.
"Hi, it's nice to meet you."
"Ah! So you're Yuji? Toma mentions you a lot to me and I've been really wanting to meet you." Cami is really such a sweet girl. She had my hands on her, looking very excited.
"Same here. I leave Toma's troubles in your hands now." I joked.
"Eh?" Toma reacted.
"Hahaha of course!" She happily answered.
"Eh!? I'm not a trouble maker." He defended himself.
Both Cami and I had the same response to him. "Right." We both suddenly look at one another with a surprised expression from the coincidence that happened.
"Hahaha!" We ended up laughing about it.
"Geez, you guys got along so quickly." Toma commented.
"Aww, you jealous Toma?" Cami clings to his arm and looks at him sweetly. "Don't be, I'm already yours honey."
Ugh, endearments gross me out.
"No, I'm jealous because Yuji gets along with you better than I do." Then it surprised me again when Toma clings to me, just like what Cami did to him.
"Ugh, you gay fuck." Then I tried to shove him away from me.
"Hahahaha! I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Let's all get inside now." Toma first goes inside the house. And for a moment, as I gazed at Cami, she was looking furiously at Toma.
I rubbed my eyes thinking that I might be seeing things wrong but Cami is really glaring at Toma's back. She sighs and changes her expression into a sweet one as she looks at me. What a sudden mood change. "Come on Yuji, you should go meet my cousin too!"
"O-kay?" Then she pulls me inside the house.
Loud music, dim lights, many people… this is just how I thought this party would be. And in the center of all this house is a group of people talking and laughing with one another while drinking liquor. "Hey guys!" Cami greeted.
All their eyes shifted on us. "Oh hey coz!" The girl with piercings on her nose replied. I guess she's Cami's cousin and the birthday girl. She's just as pretty as Cami, but has a little wilder look.
"I'd like you guys to meet someone!" Cami mentioned and I waved at them awkwardly.
"Is he your boyfriend? I didn't know you were into cute guys." Oh, she thinks I'm cute?
"Haha! I wish, this person is actually my boyfriend's bestfriend, Yuji." Cami's cousin stands up and reached out her hand to me.
"Hi, I'm Tsuzu. It's nice to meet 'ya."
"L-Likewise." I accepted her hand and she grasps on it tightly and shakes it.
"Hahaha! There's no need to be formal, enjoy the party!" Uhh, why isn't she letting go of my hand? I could feel her eyes are like glued to my face as well.
"Yeah, and uh, happy birthday." She seems nice, but I feel a bit scared of her. Why do I feel like she can eat me alive?
"Thanks! Say, can you accompany me. I think I'd like to get to know you better-"
"Hey Yuji, you're here!" Toma suddenly jumped in the conversation, he also took my hand away from Tsuzu. "Toma!" I felt a bit relieved he came.
"Ahh Tsuzu, this is Toma. My boyfriend." Cami said.
Then Toma realizes his situation when he looks at Cami and Tsuzu. "Oh, hi Tsuzu! Happy birthday."
"Hmm, so this is your man huh. You've got good taste Cami."
"Of course." Cami chuckles at Tsuzu's compliment.
"So Toma, will you let me borrow Yuji for a while? I'd like to chat with him for a while." It seems like Tsuzu is fond of me at the moment. I felt a bit nervous like a prey being observed by its predator.
"I'm sorry, you can't have Yuji…" Toma suddenly said.
"Huh?" We all had the same reaction from Toma's words.
He pulls me towards him and said his excuse with a very serious face. "…because he's already reserved for me."
