    – o – o – o – o – o –  “Kamitani!”Ryuuichi shouted out once he spotted the taller male standing infront of the station entrance, waving his hand over his head as he ran over to him.Out of the blue, Kamitani had called him a few minutes ago, saying to hurry and come meet him at the entrance to the station that was nearest to the chairwoman’s house right away. Kamitani had hung up before Ryuuichi could ask him why he needed to go there, but Kamitani rarely called him for something urgent – let alone called him period – so Ryuuichi could only assume it was for something important. So, Ryuuichi had hurriedly asked Saikawa-san to look after Kotarou for him, before bolting out the door and running all the way to where his friend said he’d be, where he currently was. “Kamitani!” Ryuuichi called his friend’s name again as he bounded to a stop in front of the taller part-time babysitter club member, panting as he caught his breath and braced himself on his knees. “What…hah…What’s the matter…?”“Let’s go—” was all Kamitani said as he suddenly took one of Ryuuichi’s hands and hurriedly led the shorter boy down the steps of the station entrance.“Wait—ah, K-Kamitani!” Ryuuichi tried to protest and get answers out of his friend, while simultaneously trying to keep up with his longer strides.“Hurry!” Kamitani rushed, jogging and pulling Ryuuichi through the station in a haste, dodging the few other Saturday-evening commuters and quickly passing both of them through the turnstiles. The baseball player didn’t slow down or drop Kashima’s hand until they had just barely made it onto a train before its doors closed and it rumbled away from the platform. They were both bent over now, panting and catching their breaths, though Kashima more so than Kamitani, respectfully. When the taller of the two boys moved over to a nearby empty seat and plopped down into it, Ryuuichi raised his head and got enough air in him to ask, “What is going on?!” Kamitani met his gaze, chest still heaving slightly in attempt to regulate his own breathing, and Ryuuichi could see him momentarily consider something, before finally looking down and reaching into his pants pocket. “I suppose it’s fine to tell you now,” he said neutrally as he held out a folded paper to Ryuuichi. Standing straight, Ryuuichi took the few steps over to where Kamitani was before taking the offered paper from him and scanning his eyes over it, as he sat down in the empty seat beside Kamitani. “…An Onsen?” Ryuuichi questioned, blinking first down at the paper in his hands, that was actually a brochure for the hot springs that was their area’s main tourist attraction, and then up at Kamitani.“Un,” Kamitani affirmed with a nod, looking at Kashima as he continued. “Old hag and the other teachers all wanted to give you a break for one night, as a thank you for taking such good care of the kids in the daycare everyday. So, they all pitched in and made you a reservation for tonight at the hot springs’ inn.” Kamitani pointed at the brochure as he said that last part, causing Ryuuichi to look down at it once more.Kamitani waited a moment, watching the shorter boy as he took in the information; he could tell Kashima was surprised and he selfishly wanted to observe this rarely-scene-Ryuuichi-expression for as long as he could.Ryuuichi blinked slowly as he stared at the flyer in his hands – advertising lush private baths, a spacious open bath and various spa-type services offered – and let Kaminari’s words register in his brain. He was being spoiled…no, he was being thanked by everyone. Everyone who he normally helped out, was helping him for a change, taking care of him for a change. His eyes glistened softly as he lowered the paper down onto his lap, his lips resting in an easy grin. “They didn’t have to do this…” “Of course, they did,” Kamitani interjected, face as stoic as always, as he bluntly pointed out, “You’d never agree to it other-wise.”Suddenly, Ryuuichi jolted up and turned and grabbed Kamitani’s sleeve abruptly, his face in a bit of a panic as he suddenly exclaimed, “But, Kotarou—!”“He’s spending the night at my house,” Kamitani quickly retorted, closing his eyes and raising up his arm that Kashima was clinging onto, but not actively trying to make the other boy let go. Truthfully, he was surprised at how long Kashima had gone without worrying about his brother. “Old hag already arranged everything with the guy with black underwear.”Ryuuichi backed off his friend gently at his words and nodded once to himself, before he realized what the dark-haired male had said exactly, then he gave Kamitani an over-cast look and chastised under his breath, “Really, why do you keep calling Saikawa-san that, Kamitani…?” Then, the mention of underwear sparked another realization in Ryuuichi's mind, “Ah, I don’t have spare clothes or anything...”Kamitani opened his eyes and turned his head back to look at the other once more, “Why do you think I’m carrying two bags?”“Eh?” Ryuuichi blinked then looked down and noticed for the first time that Kaminari had both, a backpack on his back and a duffle bag between his feet on the floor – the latter of which he was now picking up and passing over to Ryuuichi.“He prepared it this morning and passed it off to me during my baseball club practice this afternoon,” Kamitani stated, referencing Saikawa, as he crossed his arms over his chest and leaned his head back against the window of the train, closing his eyes.Ryuuichi shuffled a moment, adjusting the bag on his lap so that it was comfortable and setting the brochure that he’d still been holding on top of it for now. Then, he turned slowly and looked up at Kamitani beside him, as another thing occurred to him. “You also have a bag... Does this mean you’re coming too?”A beat passed in which Kamitani didn’t move or reply because his heart had skipped-up at the innocence of Kashima’s question and really, he wasn’t sure his voice would be steady enough to answer right away. “…Usaida said I was the only one who’d actually get you to come,” he finally replied, then opened his eyes and let his head roll to the side slightly so that he could look at Ryuuichi. “Plus, I knew you wouldn’t want to be by yourself. Especially when you couldn’t bring your brother along.” Ryuuichi stared at Kamitani for a long moment before looking down at the duffel bag in his lap and smiling warmly, his cheeks getting rosy. “Kamitani…” he said the other’s name in the endearing tone he usually only used for the kids in the daycare room, before looking back up at his friend and fixing his smile on him, “Thank you, I’m really happy you’re going to be with me.”Kamitani could just make out the tears budding in the corners of Ryuuichi’s eyes, and he knew why they were; Ryuuichi was sensitive to abandonment – or was it attachment? Either way, Kamitani could tell Ryuuichi never liked to be alone. He had a hunch it had to do with losing his parents, but Kamitani had never voiced this to Ryuuichi nor was he probably ever going to. That just wasn’t the type of person he was.But just because he didn’t talk much, didn’t mean he didn’t understand.Closing his eyes and rolling his head back to face forward, Kamitani replied, “It’s nothing.” Even though it wasn’t. A comfortable silence settled between them. Then, after a while, and after peeking with one eye to make sure Kashima was distracted on his phone, Kamitani let his own lips curl up into a warm smile.  – o – o – o – o – o –
