[ tasty, fresh, and perfectly seasoned with every bite he has taken so far— megumi underestimates this delight, but denji isn't bothered to sell his point further. at times, actions speak louder than words, and he's more content to enjoy it instead. while chewing, denji glanced at his friend with a tilt of his head. wait, that's it?! he's working too many hours and for that, he's earned a reward? this sounds way too good to be true.
heh. there's a smile, and then denji points his dirty chopstick in megumi's direction. ]
[ Consciously, that's exactly what Megumi was doing, though. Sharing some food with a friend just for the sake of spending time with them. When Denji brings up that something is probably on his mind, that forces Megumi to take a mental step back and check himself, and - yes. Something has been on his mind. There's a sigh. ]
I wouldn't invite you here to make you listen to what's happening with me.
[ He'll pour some tea and push it in the other boy's direction. Enjoy yourself! This isn't about him. ]
[ denji didn't have a lot going on this week, nothing too exciting to share aside from locking up some lame criminals, learning to drive a car, and normal complicated teen feelings all around. you know? the normal. megumi, on the other hand, seemed to lead a more — private life. they spend enough time with each other now, and denji can see more glimpses here and there.
the sigh that slipped out of the sorcerer's lips didn't match his words. ]
It's either that or I'll start talking about a new girl x girl porno I found yesterday.
[ Megumi's about to continue trying to divert the topic away from himself, when the other boy hits him with that very real threat, and he finds he has no choice but to relent. ]
No -- Don't do that. [ He really, really does not want to hear about girl x girl pornos. There's a sigh. ]
I took your advice and told Yuji how I was feeling.
[ damn. he kinda wanted to talk about those girls getting down and dirty in vivid detail, felt like a nice addition while enjoying this meal. maybe he can, somehow, slip it back into their conversation later on ...
for now, he reached for another bite, not surprised megumi took his advice. why? because it was fucking perfect. heh. ]
[ denji stopped munching for a second, he then turned his head to give megumi a puzzled stare. the first two reactions seemed reasonable; he didn't want to hurt his friend's feelings so he tossed in the 'you're so important' seasoning-
He said he wanted to save and protect me more than anyone else. [ Megumi has no idea how that leads to the other boy wanting to cry. Actually, no, he has some clue. ]
He hides a lot of things from me. Something bad probably happens to me back home. [ What it is, he doesn't know. Does he die? Honestly, he's quite neutral about that, because he's been preparing to die for years. ]
Probably. But- you just wanted to share your feelings for him. Maybe he got nervous and started oversharing things he's been keeping to himself for a long time.
[ maybe megumi had a gruesome fate awaiting him back home that kept yuuji on edge, and it explains the confusing responses, but one thing is for sure — the sentiment is not returned. megumi can still be an important person in his friend's life, but not romantically. that's all he needs to know to move on. ]
Well, I'm glad you did it. I'll take you to a gay bar to celebrate sometime!

How did it go?
no subject
He said I was important to him, and that we're best friends. Then -- I'm not sure why he started to cry.
no subject
but, why did he start crying afterward? ]
What did he say when he was crying?
