Shuichi picked Kokichi up on his back.
"Are you sure you don't wanna go home..?" The detective questioned him.
"Yup~!" He lied, but he put on a realistic smile.
He lied because he couldn't bear the sight of Kaede, Nagito and Ruby and Kaito and Maki made him feel jealous, and he was slightly afraid of Rantaro due to the recent fights.
"There you are! I was so worried Shushu!" Kaede ran up to him and squeezed his arm, rubbing her cheek against him.
He carefully lowered Kokichi down.
"Hey, do you ever think that maybe Shumai doesn't want you all over him every time you see eachother~?" The small boy snapped.
"Do you?" She snapped back, squeezing his arm.
"I- it's different with me~!"
"Uhuh.. so his childhood friend who he actually likes has less rights than someone he's only been hanging around with for less than 2 weeks and feels forced?"
"He.. he doesn't feel forced~!"
"Yes he does! Can't you see? Wow, you really are dumb!" Kaede laughed.
Tears welled up in Ouma's eyes as he turned and ran. He didn't know where he was going, he just knew he had to get out of there. He ran towards the woods. He wanted to go to his beloved Shumai's house, but he couldn't.
"What was that for Kaede?! Maybe you're the dumb one! Can't you see I actually like hanging out with him?" Shuichi yelled and pulled her off, before walking away.
Nagito and Ruby followed him out of the mall, but let him take his own route.
"Wait Shui-!" She started to yell, as Rantaro held her back.
"C'mon Kae, let's go shopping or something..?" Maki grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards a clothes shop.
"Well.. so much for a fun get-together, huh?" Amami sighed.
"Heh.." Kaito sighed too.
"Hey Kae, this would totally suit you!" Maki pointed out a hot-pink playsuit, trying to be at least a little enthusiastic.
She didn't like shopping, especially not clothes shopping, but she knew it would be a decent way to distract her fiery friend.
"Hmm.. not really my style.. Oh! Maki you should try this on!" Akamatsu grabbed a Dark red and black crop top.
"Ooh and wear it with these!" She picked up some black ripped jeans and a black leather Jacket.
"And to top it off, we need some accessories!" Kaede rushed over to the accessory isle.
She picked a black leather choker, gold hoop earrings and matching red-camo hair ties.
"Now you pick me an outfit!"
"Oh.. okay.." Maki was afraid she'd say that; she wasn't very good with fashion.
She grabbed a white minidress, pastel pink denim Jacket, holographic bow earrings and a matching choker, with a glittery white headband.
"Is that okay..?"
"Ooh yeah! So cute!"
The girls headed over to the changing rooms and quickly tried on their new outfits.
"Oh my atua! We look super cute!" Kaede gasped, posing.
They headed to the checkout and paid, before once again meeting the boys.
"W-woah..! Kaede you look.. beautiful..!" Rantaro blushed.
"M-maki..! W-wo-" Kaito tried to say, blushing.
"Shut up." Maki put a finger on his lips to shut him up, pouting and blushing a little.
Kokichi
Kokichi was sat in the woods, in a small pile of leaves. The same place that him and Shuichi went when they first hung out.
"I knew it.. why the hell would someone as cool and great as him wanna hang out with an obnoxious idiot like me? You're such a fucking idiot.." Kokichi mumbled to himself, tears falling down his face.
A little brown squirrel approached him, and rubbed it's tiny head against his hand. It was the same squirrel as before. The boy gently petted his head with his thumb.
"Hey there little guy.. sorry, I dont have any cookies this time.."
The squirrel placed a tiny paw on his hand, as if it were trying to comfort him. This gave the leader a shock of pain, as he realised he might never be able to hold his Shumai's hand again, let alone see him. More tears trickled down his cheeks as he picked up the little squirrel and very carefully hugged it.
"Well at least I know I can't lose you~!"
Shuichi
"Why can't Kaede just leave that boy alone? Can't she just get over the fact that I wanna be around more people than just her? Honestly, I'd rather be around him and now she's taken him away from me. I.. I love him..! I've gotta get him back.." Shuichi yelled into his mirror.
You should write them a love letter!
Angie's words from a few days ago rang in his head. A love letter. That's how he'd get his Koki back. He sat at his desk and began writing on pink paper.
Dear Koki,
You're eyes are so pretty like amethysts. You smell so sweet like gra
"Too cringy.. I need something that shows how I feel, not the cliche movie letter.."
That was the problem. Shuichi didn't fully know how he felt, let alone know how to write it. He picked up his phone and called Miu.
"Hey Miu.. I never thought I'd say this but I need your help.."
"Oh hey Emo boy, whaddya need? Sex robot or somethin'?"
"Miu! No! I need.. help with words.. I'm gonna write a love letter to Kokichi.."
"No freakin' way! You're in love with that abortion of all people?! Honestly, I thought you'd be more into Kaede.. anyway you gotta write how you feel! All the shit you wanna do to him!"
"That's the thing.. I don't know how to write how I feel.."
"Ah I see.. so what if-"
