Mitsuki stood in front of the mirror, applying the last bit of lipstick to her lips. She had about a half-hour to spare but didn't want to risk the chance of being late. She would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous. What if he didn't show up? What if she couldn't find the bar?!
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MjIGoa91A
"Oi." A voice cut off her panicking thoughts. She turned around to see her son, who had changed into a T-shirt with a pair of light blue jeans, leaning on the doorframe. "What the hell are you doing?"

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SOA8NUdVi
"Like it's your business!" Mitsuki huffed, grabbing her purse. "But if you desire to know, I'm going on a date."

Katsuki frowned. His mother was going on a date?! It hadn't even been two weeks since they split up, yet she was already trying to find someone to have 'fun' with?! He felt his anger boil deep inside of him, his hands beginning to tremble slightly from anger. However, he hid this by clenching his fists. He felt as if his body had been heating for quite some time, like a kettle that had been sitting on a stovetop for too long. A few droplets of sweat rolled down his forehead. A small piece of him felt envious of his mother, as she could get over such a sad moment so easily. However, the rest of him loathed his mother, as she could throw fifteen good years with a man she supposedly loved away like it was a piece of trash. He wanted to yell at his mother, to shout, to curse, anyway that he could get the anger out of his system. But he knew that he couldn't do that, as he would only receive a smack to the back of his head, which would make the ash-blonde even angrier. He let out quick, heavy breaths as an attempt to push back the anger. He glared at his mom, his glare so strong that it could practically stab her.

"What the hell is that look for?!" She sharply asked, returning Katsuki's glare with one of her own.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw761wVAqC
Katsuki said nothing. Instead, he stomped off, his footsteps booming loudly inside the house.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUMgMg087r
Jeez. Mitsuki thought as she walked downstairs. What the hell was her son's problem? Was she not allowed to be happy? She sighed before opening the door. She shouldn't worry about her son being an asshole to her. She had way better things to do than that. Hell, maybe if she was lucky, she wouldn't be going to bed alone tonight!

Mitsuki pulled up to the bar, awestruck by its looks. It wasn't as big as she had thought it was. Instead, it had seemed to be a small building, almost the size of the grocery store that she had been to that day. However, it was lit up with many lights, from neon red to white, almost making it look like a Christmas tree. The thing that caught her eye though, was the fact that it was in Tokyo, yet there were only a few people there. Maybe she could go here often to avoid being home with her crybaby son.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50uNTPT8fm
She pulled into a parking space and set it into park. She debated whether to get out of the car and get a table or just wait for Jason, as she had arrived five minutes early. However, just as she had made herself comfortable in her car, she saw Jason walking towards the entrance. She got out of the vehicle and made a beeline over to her friend.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegnsHjOIxE
"Hey!" Mitsuki smiled, waving to the ravenette. "I'm here!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBmQjnHTX8
"I can see that." Jason chuckled.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyZSCPkRvh
"Did you drive here? Where's your car?" Mitsuki quizzically asked, looking around to see if Jason had a car.

"No. I walked there. It's a few minutes from my apartment!"

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVLueiylXX
"Not much," Jason replied, taking a slight sip from his water. "My dad tried to get me in the military, but I chose not to. He got pissed off at me, saying that I need to learn how to fight and that I was just being scared. I left that place and back to Tokyo because I don't deserve that kind of treatment. What about you?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AJip3t5ur
"I got married. He was an asshole, though. We were married for fifteen years and had a kid. He's fourteen." Mitsuki said, taking another swig. "My husband is out of the picture now. I divorced his ass and kicked him out, and the fucker slit his wrists when he found out his son would not be staying with him. So now I'm just living with my son now. If I knew that he was just going to lie in his bed all day like some baby, I would have never fought for him."

Jason's eyes widened. He wasn't expecting such an answer from his friend.

"His name is Katsuki Bakugou," Mitsuki said, finishing her glass. "Say, enough about him, you haven't even had a drink yet! What kind of alcohol do you like?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFprV32AqVI
"Hm? Oh, no I don't feel like drinking. I might have to drive you home if you keep guzzling Bloody Mary's like that." Jason said, pointing to the already empty glass. "I didn't know you were a fan of the heat!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35BXEIL5Y5
Mitsuki laughed. "Ha Ha. Hilarious. Last time I checked, you still have the record for the most Sake shots in an hour."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDDbWCgwf5
"Really?!" Jason's eyes glowed slightly. "I would have thought someone in our friend group would have broken that record!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZX7Q5E9Yp
"Nope! Eight shots of Sake is still the record!" Mitsuki said, spotting a waitress behind her. "Oi! Another Bloody Mary, please!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nMdtVWl7n
The waitress nodded and went over to make the drink.

After only a few seconds, the waitress returned, holding a small glass of Jack Daniels and Coca-Cola. She set the glass down gently in front of Jason, making sure that there was a napkin to catch the moisture.

The bar was filled to the brim with the high-pitched and deep pitched laughter of Mitsuki and Jason. The two had been drinking alcohol nonstop for the past hour. The two were drunk. Jason had done his best to contain his laughter in order for the other customers to not be disturbed, but Jason still let out a few quiet snickers. Meanwhile, Mitsuki did not keep her laughter in, her earsplitting shrieks of laughter echoing throughout the bar, making everyone inside the bar give the pair odd looks. However, the duo didn't care, as they were having too good of a time to notice. The thing they were laughing about? Jason had revealed the fact that he was no longer a virgin and Mitsuki could not believe it.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRPQdpe0DJ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQBXmi0dPh
"There is-" She hiccuped mid-sentence. "No fucking way that you aren't a virgin! The last time I saw you, you were.. You were an antisocial kid who couldn't even say hello to someone!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxoza4BGfc
"I'm telling you!" He giggled. "I'm not a... I'm not a virgin! I lost it like... Hmm..."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMbyUy9Vld
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9Fa4hruyc
Mitsuki began to drunkenly laugh as Jason counted on his fingers. The sight of her best friend, who had been a smart kid back in high school, having to resort to a method that a kindergartner would use amused her. Despite the humor she felt watching Jason, she could feel another feeling brewing in her body. Almost instantly, she had recognized the feeling.253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwJgLtdDUZ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmZaKAM9i9
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SpG0MXiyv
She had feelings for Jason. Not as a friend like throughout high school, but as a lover. She had a hunch that Jason felt the same way, but the liquor covered up the telltale signs. However, the last time she felt this feeling with him, he left before she had the chance to confess. She would not let that happen a second time. For once, she would be -
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7YBeDWHir
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhHi7FJFa3
"Fourteen years!" Jason shouted unintentionally, slamming his hands against the table. "I haven't been a virgin for.. for fourteen years!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvC7OuFXMj
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG24nHdAYFf
"Oh y-yeah?" Mitsuki asked, the alcohol preventing her from producing a coherent sentence. She was a little annoyed that her little fantasy of who she hoped would get together with her was interrupted, but she set it aside. "Who was it then?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0133ACBvz
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMNqeP5JMn
"Fuck if I know," He laughed. "We were only married for a week. But she got... Oh, what's the word... Pregnant during that week!"

Jason shook his head.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ627xW9ThIY
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H7WHZ06Dz
"Nope. Since I left while he was in the womb, his mom just wanted to have his stepfather be his actual dad. I still visit, but I am just an 'uncle'."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEESA4W9QtI

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr4HdzeBoZ
Mitsuki raised an eyebrow. That name sounded familiar to her, but it probably was just a coincidence. She would not distract herself with that. She took another sip from her Bloody Mary, pondering about how she would go about confessing. After a minute of coming up with nothing and noticing that an eerie silence had risen between them, she had decided to just wing it.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jAnc9CPtR
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCi7h1NwI7
"Soooo..." Mitsuki said, twirling her straw in her drink as a faint blush formed on her cheeks. "There is something I must confess to you."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKhfvJPF2I
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ638xN8ycF2
"Hmm?" Jason asked, his bright, blue eyes staring into Mitsuki's red eyes as he took another sip from his drink. "What is it?"253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c1D71BBES
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1E5ZBW23Q
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu5ldo5nCx
"I... I love you Jason... I've loved you for so long... But I never got the chance to tell you..." Mitsuki said, her eyes batting down to the table as her blush darkening. She couldn't believe that this was happening! She was confessing her love to Jason! However, she couldn't bring herself to look into Jason's eyes. What if he rejected her? What if she just ruined their friendship?!
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlQ290JPUA
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzietzZ2bo
"Hey, Mitsuki," Jason said as he reached across the table and tilted her chin up so she could look at him. "What is wrong?"

"I did something stupid... I don't even know why I did it... it probably just ruined our friendship..." She didn't want to say that to Jason, for it would probably make him feel awful. She closed her eyes, making sure she wouldn't have to see Jason's reaction.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4PTztC3IY
She braced herself for Jason's reaction. Knowing her luck, he would probably laugh at her and reject her in front of everyone. She felt a wave of nausea travel through her body, but she couldn't tell if it was because of the alcohol or the anxiety of Jason's answer slowly rising in her body. She took another sip from her drink, hoping that the alcohol would calm her nerves more than they already were.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbdEg0R5a0

To her surprise, Jason did not laugh like she thought he would. Instead, she heard nothing come from her childhood best friend. That was until she felt something soft touch her lips. She opened her eyes to see what was touching her, only to see Jason in front of her, lips connected with hers. Her ruby eyes shot wide open, not expecting Jason to kiss her. As he kissed her, she could feel her entire mind crash. This was happening. She couldn't believe it! The connection between them had finally been filled! She hoped that the kiss would continue into a more passionate kiss and then they could have a little fun in her bedroom. She felt Jason's tongue enter her mouth, his tongue exploring every nook and cranny in Mitsuki's mouth. Mitsuki let out a small, high-pitched moan as her tongue battled Jason's, doing her best to win the battle and enter Jason's mouth. However, Mitsuki's tongue was no match for Jason's, his tongue pinning hers down as he continued to explore. The way Jason kissed her and how he slipped his tongue in so easily made Mitsuki feel a different feeling.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTYIyXIkIi
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IOSt4xywp
She could feel herself getting aroused from how rough Jason was with kissing. Almost instantly, her mind wandered, wondering about what Jason would do to her. She wondered if he had a small cock or a big one. God, she really hoped that he was big, as she had already had to deal with Masaru's small cock for over fourteen years. She hoped that Jason would be the opposite of Masaru. Whenever she and Masaru had sex, he would go as slow as a snail. She figured that Masaru was teasing her by going slow and quickening his pace to catch her off guard, but that never came. Whenever Masaru has sex with her, it would always end with him finishing first, while Mitsuki was nowhere near climaxing. In order for her to be satisfied after these sessions, she would usually resort to one of her special 'toys' to help her climax.253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkF36I4nqNn
If she was lucky tonight, she would never have to use those toys ever again. She hoped that Jason would plow her in the bedsheets, so hard that she would have trouble walking the next day.253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPJilPIP0v

"That... was the best fucking kiss I've ever had." Jason panted, adding a small smirk. "I've felt the same way about you ever since we were kids. I wanted to tell you I loved you for so long, that I wanted to treat you like the princess you deserved to be. I was going to tell you the night before I left, but I got too nervous."

She remembered on Jason's final day in Japan, when they had snuck out for the last time together, he seemed a lot more nervous than his usual self. Had she been that ignorant? God, she could remember it like it was yesterday. She remembered how they spent a portion of the night on the hood of Jason's car and drank booze that he had somehow persuaded someone to buy for him. She remembered how they listened to one of Jason's tapes that he received from his dad from when he used to live in the states and stare up into the moonlight.

Jason sat patiently in his car, the engine rumbling quietly as it idly sat next to the curb. He checked his watch. The clock read ten forty-five PM. He let out a quiet sigh. He only had two minutes left before Mitsuki could sneak out. A part of him was nervous and hoped that Mitsuki would forget the time she planned to meet up with him. However, the other part of him knew that it was necessary that she came, as it was his last day in Japan. He knew that she would be heartbroken, that her best friend of four years would leave her and would probably never see him again. He hated being the harbinger of bad news, but she deserved to know. Jason was grateful though for the time they had spent together. He was grateful that Mitsuki chose him as a friend. He was more of a loner in class and the scapegoat for class bullies, while Mitsuki was the star volleyball player and your average popular girl in high school. He knew that when Mitsuki asked to be her friend, she would risk her status in high school, so he declined it. However, Mitsuki was a girl that wouldn't accept no as an answer and eventually persuaded him into being her friend. He remembered the parties Mitsuki used to throw, whether it was after homecoming or for one of her friends' birthdays, or just for fun, he and Mitsuki would always have fun, often incorporating alcohol in the party.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQgX79dzLK

He sighed again. He would miss those memories. Maybe when he was older, he could move back to Japan and be with Mitsuki for the rest of their lives!
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIZZTDLh1t
His thoughts were cut off as he heard the familiar thud on the grass. He looked up and saw Mitsuki running out to his car, her short, bright red school skirt bouncing as she ran. He smiled at the sight of her, as her usual, white button-up shirt flowed gently in the wind. God, the sight of her almost made him forget that it was his final day in Japan. Once Mitsuki got over to the side of Jason's car, she stuck her head in to greet her best friend. Her usual sweet smile beamed brightly in the moonlight.

"Yeah, the old man can't see shit without his glasses! I could have walked out of the house through the front door and he wouldn't be able to spot me!" Mitsuki snickered, looking towards the black-haired male with a smirk. "So, where are we going that you begged me to come with to?"

Jason pulled up near the edge of the cliffs, making sure that he was at a far enough distance from falling off the cliff, but was close enough to see the beautiful view. He set the vehicle in park and reached over to the passenger side, digging through the glove compartment, pulling out a couple of cassette tapes.

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylXSIpOqoj
Jason nodded.

"Unless you want to risk falling to your death while you're drunk, we drink on the top of my car. The last thing I want to witness is my best friend falling to her death. Here, catch." He said, tossing the ash-blonde a bottle of rum.

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcASuBteTm
Mitsuki caught the bottle in her hands, but to Mitsuki's disappointment, the bottle was no bigger than a bottle of hand soap, much unlike the usual bottles they would drink at their parties, which contained more alcohol than they could ever imagine. She groaned slightly.

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW432drKvFY
"That's it?" She asked as she hopped up onto the hood. "That is a small bottle! Why didn't you get the bigger bottles?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OsU1EhJur
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnW144qsswX
"Because," Jason started, closing the trunk and joining Mitsuki on the hood. "We still have to drive home and the last time we got drunk, I almost crashed! I know that we won't get as drunk as we usually do, but it'll still be fun!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlBRjEmMWe
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5WnNBRbyE
Mitsuki cracked open her bottle, trying her best not to spill the precious liquid. However, before she could take a sip, it was almost like her eyes were forcefully pulled off her bottle and towards Jason's hand. She wondered what he was holding, for it seemed to take his attention off of everything, almost like it was his entire world, and if he lost it, his entire world would end. The item seemed so familiar to Mitsuki, but she didn't know off the top of her head.253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7kJwxYTj4

"Hey, are those cassette tapes?" Mitsuki asked, finally breaking the silence.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡys1eYeUq45
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9k7qLfRJj
"Hmm?" He looked down at his hand. "Oh yeah! My dad let me borrow them! They are a bunch of seventies songs that he used to have in the states!"253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8T0GNlissT
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpj808h6O1U
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ofaDJvGNa
"Really? Which ones?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCA4oQBmaR
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrzCWcTjie
"Hmm," Jason mumbled, flipping the tapes over to see the names, which were written in thick, black sharpie. "I have Hotel California by Eagles, Piano Man by Billy Joel, Bohemian Rhapsody and We Will Rock You by Queen, and Staying Alive by the Bee Gees."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgPePmlogd
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe26fGs3S0O
"Oh. I will not lie, those sound lame as hell." She chuckled. "Couldn't your dad have given you music like The Backstreet Boys?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW631zYpUMm
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjPivLlG4t
"I don't know, he says that they were good, so I borrowed them. You want me to play them?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kXeaFbvzP
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ010GYGPREY
"Maybe on the way back, Jason," Mitsuki said, looking out on the cliff. "I don't want to take the risk of someone I know seeing me. Let's just drink!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOpef7TSvW
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9gLgtDLss
Jason grinned, opening the bottle of bourbon that he had gotten from his trunk. He raised his bottle towards Mitsuki. Almost immediately, Mitsuki raised her glass, clinking her glass with Jason's.

"Bottoms up!" She grinned, bringing the bottle's neck to her lips, guzzling the liquid. She cringed slightly. The burning alcohol singed the back of her throat and the roof of her mouth. However, she seemed to taste something... Sweet. The burning liquid was overpowered by a sugary taste, causing her eyes to glow at the taste of toasted sugar. She continued to sip the liquid, savoring the sweetness. Knowing her luck, this would give her a major sugar rush and she wouldn't be able to go to sleep for the rest of the night. She didn't care though, as she didn't have to worry about volleyball season anymore. God, she loved volleyball, and she was sad that her final season was over. Yet, she felt a giddiness run through her body. She could finally do whatever she wanted now and not worry about the consequences! She didn't have to worry about sneaking out too late, mainly because she had to get up for volleyball at five AM. She didn't have to worry about someone from her school seeing her, rat her out to the principal, and cause him to give her a season-long suspension. That would be bad for the team though, as Mitsuki was their star player and if she got suspended, the team would fail. But now none of those worries affected her anymore. She could finally be free to do whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted and wherever she wanted. However, in her thoughts of being free, she had guzzled all the alcohol in the bottle.

Jason stared at Mitsuki, his eyes as wide as dinner plates.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy80VhvF49
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7oZjYAFeS
"How the hell did you drink all of that?!" He chuckled, still holding the full bottle of bourbon. "I didn't even get a sip of my drink! You just guzzled all of that!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gCsVRjuZR
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCWMyC6RX3
"It was sweet! I didn't really feel any burning like with the booze in Japan." Mitsuki shrugged.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoj2kLvUYQk
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvQ0sOvNWC
Jason rolled his eyes, a small smirk emerging on his face.

"Maybe you're just used to booze, or it's just weak booze."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29XQREFc6x
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLYgP9vYWh
Mitsuki let out a dramatic gasp, smacking him playfully on his shoulder.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPKnyVLZwv
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1tT8XqM1C
"You calling me a sissy?! I can handle strong booze!" She giggled. "Take your sip and see if it is weak!"253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjH9jz7iOai

"Hmph. Challenge accepted." He huffed, bringing his bottle to his lips, taking a swig of the American drink. From what his friend had told him, bourbon tasted like fresh caramel, with a slight hint of vanilla. However, right as the booze hit his tongue, he immediately felt the burning sensation coat the back of his throat. The taste that his friend had told him about seemed to be nonexistent. It felt like his mouth had been full of gasoline and someone had thrown a match in, setting it ablaze. He almost spat the drink out. However, he knew that he couldn't do that, knowing that he would never hear the end of it from Mitsuki. He swallowed the liquid quickly, letting out a loud fit of coughing. He clutched his chest, feeling small tears well in his eyes as the fiery liquid went to his belly. However, as he was coughing, he could hear a familiar noise to his right. He looked to his right, seeing Mitsuki laughing up a storm, laying back on his windshield.

"OH MY GOD!!!" She shouted, snickering towards Jason. "That was the funniest thing I've ever seen! I thought you got better with alcohol!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKhfsnhAwa
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK43ZjOKzm
"My fucking friend lied to me," He grumbled, wiping his mouth clean of alcohol with his sleeve. "He said it would not be that strong, that it had a caramel and vanilla taste to it."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETpRBpWRjw
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJYtmTsp5Z
"Maybe he was wrong?"

Mitsuki hopped off the hood of the car and made a beeline for the trunk. Jason stayed on top of his car. The small, bright stars twinkled brightly in the inky, midnight blue sky while the moon seemed to shine brightly. The moon illuminated some sky, along with reflecting off the bright blue ocean. The sounds of the waves tumbling over each other, almost as if they were racing to see who would reach the sand first. The ocean air made its way to Jason's nostrils, giving him the familiar salty scent that he would find whenever he visited the beach. To be honest. Jason loved the beach. It gave him memories of when he was a kid, his father would always take him once a week to the beach where Jason would swim and play in the water for hours on end and would usually end the day sitting next to his father, who would play his guitar, as the two watched the sunset.

Jason sighed. He wished he could relive those happy times.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixwS1fnHpT
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHdIrOYEN0
"So," Mitsuki said, hopping back onto the hood, startling Jason. "You never invite me to drink alone with you unless you have something to talk about. What is it?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVoYo4FQoX
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTOm4JMU1J
Jason gulped.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVndM8Oq0ea
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrHQctkIvB
"W-Well... My dad is retiring from the Navy..." Jason mumbled, looking out into the sea
.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uZR2Ss4Z3
Mitsuki tilted her head in confusion. His father was retiring? Wasn't that a good thing? Why did he not look happy?253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrSenKvPja
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfG9Y1txVUs
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bHE03TcsP
"Isn't that a good thing? He'll get to be with you more often!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLxlaFCgvY
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybFF0qkIER
"Yeah, it'll be awesome to spend more time with my dad..." He sniffled, unconsciously hugging his knees to his chest. "But..."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmHHU0yz7r
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD7MiATZCe
Jason felt his lip quiver, but he bit it slightly, not wanting Mitsuki to see. However, Mitsuki wasn't a fool. She could tell when Jason was close to crying. She immediately wrapped an arm around him and pulled him close to her.253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kq8X7w72g

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rxNFPMTdu
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5noaICVRXN
"M-My dad is moving back to the States... And he's taking me with..." Jason hiccuped.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpOwmv7DFV
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWUcAHNVPt
"Oh..." Mitsuki mumbled, feeling a few tears well in her eyes. Her best friend was going to move away? She couldn't imagine the sadness he must've felt, to go to a brand new country, where he knew absolutely no one, other than a couple of people. Along with not knowing many people, Jason wouldn't be able to experience their final festivals as students. It was a shame really, as Jason loved the annual festivals! Whether he was marching down the streets while waving the country's flag for National Foundation day or playing Tsunahiki (Tug of war), whatever festival it was, it always seemed to break Jason's usual timid shell, exposing the competitive side of him. But now he won't be able to finish those final festivals. "I'm so sorry, Jason... That must really suck..."253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7TuxBNvvE

"It really does..." He mumbled. "I wanted to graduate here... Not at some random school with a bunch of people I don't know..."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l1wrhCd8O
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyZDbz8X2g

253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WtBEfPvs4
"Oh..." Mitsuki wrapped her arms around Jason's lanky body and hugged him tightly, almost like a boa constrictor taking its prey. "I will miss you... So fucking much..."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnMMJlqkWp
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl8xISXXS4
"I will too, Mitsuki..." Jason started, trying to develop some courage. "I have something I need to tell you before I go..."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQlFLEoykG
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSr5OEE8m7A
"Oh..?"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKhBKjORyZ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7w9u3H38DP
"I..." He stammered, trying to find the right words to use. God, he thought his nerves would be calmer by now, now that the booze had set in. However, it seemed to be the polar opposite. He could feel himself get more and more nervous. The urge to vomit from the tension had risen in his stomach. No. He couldn't throw up now, especially not in front of Mitsuki! He.. he didn't have the courage... "Never mind..."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8BgUOZ4Eo

"Oh, ok!" Mitsuki chirped, smiling brightly. "Let's drink now like it's our last!"253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMfgvpr4UR
Jason smiled, before taking another sip from his drink.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ijeiQsO3r
"Hey," Mitsuki whispered, nudging Jason's shoulder. "Let's make a toast. A toast to promise that no matter what, we'll find each other again and party like we haven't left."253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FizuYH9Gb
