God why did we have to break up before this match? Luckily Lycian had decided not to go or else this would have been weird. I was honestly hoping they would come. Maybe we would make up and no longer fight, maybe we would overcome the cheating and forget and forgive? Who was I kidding? That was never going to happen was it? 511Please respect copyright.PENANAg0IkDcxXyc

So I came to these basketball championships by myself. It was expensive for these tickets anyways. I guess I did what I had to do for love? It was kind of useless now I slightly regretted it. I kept on looking at the seat next to me in pain realising who should have been sitting in it. I even started to imagine they were sitting there with their braided purple hair and chestnut coloured skin. Once or twice I looked over at the wrong chair at this poor Asian guy. He also seemed to be here himself. Maybe he was also in my situation? He also had a seat empty next to him. But unlike me he seemed happy. Maybe if I started a conversation I would feel better. Making friends was always great.

“So who are you barracking for?” I asked,
511Please respect copyright.PENANARJPsUphu24
It wasn’t exactly clear as the man had on both colours for the teams.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAv9rEzbT7vK
“Oh, my second person couldn’t come so I’m cheering for that person. But I go for the red team,” he replied, eyes still on the game.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAJPqX8z3sxi
So maybe his friend just hadn’t come? It would make sense as to why he didn’t look at depressed as me.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAxx1KRL94LO
“What about you?” He asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAafBC60TPgl
“I go for the red team too. They are actually my mothers favourite team. I guessed her tastes got passed down to me? But I’ve been barracking for them ever since I was about five. Oh, sorry you probably don’t want to hear my life story do you!” I rambled.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAj0AeG2SLDL
Dammit, why did I tell a complete stranger al of that? I was normally so good at controlling myself. What was happening now? Was I seriously going to let this breakup get the better of me?
511Please respect copyright.PENANA823xb2GPle
“That’s really interesting. By the way I’m Akira, what’s your name?” Akira asked.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAGzHmYcrJiF
“Have I not said that already? I thought I had, sorry about that. I’m Fleur,” I explain, feeling embarrassed that I hadn’t mentioned it earlier.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAJcRAfvTSKU
“Are you French or was your parents just a fan on Harry Potter?” He enquired,
511Please respect copyright.PENANABeIJvqFA9V
I responded in my usual answer to this question.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAaTQ30eyEo6
“It’s a bit of both actually. My father was French and my mother was a fan of the book series. So they managed to reach something they liked with me. My father wanted a French while my mom wanted something more western. I don’t really know how they ended up with it. What a bout you? Akira isn’t exactly the most common name,” I explained and then asked.
511Please respect copyright.PENANALceJcr9N0n
“Oh, it’s a Japanese name! No ones really asked but it basically means clear and bright. I think it’s quite cool.” He responded,
511Please respect copyright.PENANAzDRMbQDXoy
Our conversation continued for a while and soon this quarter was over. Sometimes the conversation was cut short by us cheering but it was still nice. It took my mind off Lycian for a bit. As we waited they turned on the kiss cam.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAkAFqSFBqKm
I had always wanted to be chosen for this with Lycian but apparently they weren’t a fan of us. Though it was never too much of a big deal.
511Please respect copyright.PENANA0Tr4p9E1xZ
I watched as others got chosen and how some had sweet kisses. I loved when the older couples were chosen and they just looked so happy. I wished I could have had that with Lycian.
511Please respect copyright.PENANA2Tpsiw4i3u
As I watched faces pass by suddenly mine was on that big screen. It was me and Akira. I guess I couldn’t help it. People were cheering and I was getting over a breakup. I was doing impulsive things.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5m5PwnOFJ
“Are you single and into women?” I asked
511Please respect copyright.PENANAlPbF4piKPB
“Uhh ye-“he started to say,
511Please respect copyright.PENANAP4RqGPOcRL
But I had cut him off by pressing my face to his. It was short our lips barely even touched. But as soon as it happened a loud cheer erupted around us and I heard the presenter say something about going for it.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAROTpqghpiG
After it ended we just stared at each other. He was surprised and so was I. What had I just done? I didn’t know, but I knew I had to apologise.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAz3QyEJWrw5
“I am so so sorry! I don’t know why I did that. OH MY GOD! I didn’t even get your consent, I am so so sorry! Report me of whatever you want. I’m just ugh there’s a lot going on and I was jealous and you see-“ I was trying to apologise and explain what happened but all Akira did was put his finger to my lips.
511Please respect copyright.PENANA7JMpU0yKI3
My face must have looked startled because Akira had chuckled.
511Please respect copyright.PENANA7IfTaS8x98
“Hey, you don’t need to explain too much. I’m not going to report you so it’s fine. You’re probably tired as well. It’s okay. Though I do want one thing from you. Is that alright?” He said, as well as slightly reassuring me.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAKDASteUOOC
I nodded my head as his finger was still on my lips and it felt wrong to talk.
511Please respect copyright.PENANAcCC0N32ZdL
“Alright thank you. I’ll ask after this quarter finishes because us red team fans don’t want to miss this so we?” He explained,
511Please respect copyright.PENANAjr1sgAx1MP
And so the match continued
