The next morning, all three got up at the sound of their alarms and got ready for school.
When the three finally got there, they confronted by Naomi. She yelled, "Hey, you two!"
All three turned to face her as she stomped her way to them angrily.
When she saw Arata however, her face lit up and she stopped her rampage. "Oh, who's your new friend?" she asked while grinning.
Tatsuya smiled, "This is Arata. He's been here a couple weeks now, but I guess since we stopped coming in the mornings, we haven't introduced you two."
Tatsuya stood next to Arata and gestured towards him, "Naomi, Arata, Arata, Naomi."
"Hello Arata," Naomi said with an outstretched hand.
"Hey Naomi."
The two shook hands and smiled.
Minyul turned towards Naomi and asked, "So what did you call us for?"
"Oh right, I wanted to make sure you two remembered that the event is tomorrow after school."
'Oh, crap. She's right,' the two thought in unison.
She narrowed her eyes, "You two forgot, didn't you!"
"No, no, no we didn't forget, it just.....slipped out minds."
"You did forget, you liars!"
Minyul wrapped his arm around Naomi, "It's alright, don't worry about. Look I promise the two of it will make it on time tomorrow, so please don't be to harsh."
Naomi closed her eyes for a moment before reluctantly saying, "Fine, just make sure you are at the classroom at three pm sharp. And I mean it."
"Of course, of course, we'll be there, promise."
She turned on her heel and walked back down the hallway.
"So what did you two do to piss her off so much and what got you into this mess anyway?"
Tatsuya turned to Arata, "Oh yeah, I guess we never really explained it to you. Well, you know how every once in a while, we had to go to school extra early?"
"Yeah and?"
"The two of is were forcefully volunteered to be in a winter event. We have to model clothes made by that department and since the event is centered around LGBT+, we have to do a few couples costumes. And the event is tomorrow so she wants us to be there really early."
"When is the event?"
"Um, between six and eight thirty, but we don't actually start modeling the clothes until around seven thirty."
Arata nodded and chuckled.
The three talked for a little while more until Minyul signaled a certain person at his locker.
Minyul tapped Tatsuya's shoulder and pointed down the hall.
"Hey, Arata," Tatsuya said with a smirk.
"Hm?"
"Look behind you, the one in the red flannel, blue jeans and the black shirt."
Arata turned and was mesmerized by the boy. He had reddish brown hair and hazel brown eyes. He was obviously an athlete. His muscles weren't to big, but you could see the definition in his arms and legs.
Tamaki looked like he ran to school and beads of sweat was dripping down his face. He lifted up his shirt and wiped his forehead, exposing his toned abs.
Arata's face blushed as he turned, "Where have you been keeping this beauty!"
"Haven't you at least seen him around school, he's pretty popular. I haven't been here much longer than you, but even I saw him around school multiple times," Minyul said.
Arata looked at the ceiling, trying to think if he had seen this boy before. His yes lit up, "Wait I have seen him before. We passed each other in the hall, though at the time, I didn't really pay attention."
Tatsuya laughed, "When you eyes lit up, you looked like a puppy."
"Hey, no I didn't!"
"Yeah, yeah whatever," Tatsuya chuckled. He took a glance at Tamaki. He and Minyul turned Arata around and began pushing him towards Tamaki.
"Wait, what are you two doing!? Hey, stop!"
Tatsuya whispered, "Hey Arata, you like running correct?"
"Well, yeah but what does that have to do with me?"
"Just go up to him and make conversation, use your charm and become friends. I know you can do it, go get him."
The two pushed Arata towards Tamaki and let the two do their thing.
Tatsuya and Minyul talked and hung out in the hallway by their classroom until the first bell rang.
The day was filled with studying, notes, and a few pop quizzes that were very unappreciated. Before the two knew it, the day was over. Since school ended at 2:30pm, the two have thirty minutes before they had to head over to the classroom.
They both walked casually down the hallway taking their time. As they passed one of the windows, Tatsuya saw Arata talking casually next to Tamaki in the shade.
He tapped Minyul's arm and pointed at the two through the window.
They made eye contact and wanted to give him, encouragement.
The two smirked and then turned and kissed each other on the lips. Tatsuya wrapped his arms around Minyul's neck and Minyul placed his hands on Tatsuya's waist. They kissed each other then gave Arata the thumbs up, while mouthing, 'You can do it,' to him.
Arata glared at them and with his eyes, he told them, 'Leave now.'
They laughed then continued their walk to the classroom.
They made it to the classroom fifteen to three and opened the door.
When they opened it, the room was lively and had a fun atmosphere. Everyone was laughing and having a wonderful time. There was a long table, with many platers of food, and coolers scattered across the area.
Harmini exclaimed, "There you two are!"
