Tsumemasa Nobukatsu is the leader of the Green Valley School for Boys, this year he is planning to overthrow his own father.

The day of graduation arrives, everyone is on their way to their new schools, but there's still a lot left to do for graduation. The students are walking down the stairs leading from the back entrance of the school building as their parents come out of their cars and walk up the steps with them. It's only been 5 months since they started college, but the students are already starting to get used to everything around them. Most of the graduates went to the same elementary school, most of those who didn't go to the same high school were homeschooled and they're now getting used to the different schedules.

"Hey, I think I'm going to take another break." Tsumemasa says while rubbing his temples. He's tired from all the studying.

"That's fine, we'll catch you later. Enjoy your break." His parents say. They're waiting for him to leave before continuing on their way to their car.

Tsumemasa walks over to one of the benches that are set up at the bottom of the stairs. After sitting down he lets out a loud sigh. "What am I gonna do without you?" He thinks to himself. Suddenly he feels something wet falling onto his head. Looking up he sees his friend Yamaguchi. They'e best friends ever since elementary school.

"Tsumemasaaaaaaaaaaaa." Yamaguchi whines.

Tsumemasa chuckles and shakes his head. "You're so annoying."

Yamaguchi rolls his eyes. "I know right? Come here." He grabs Tsummasa arms and pulls him up.

"I need to finish up my studying," He replies while holding onto the bench to steady himself.

"I'm not finished yet!" Yamaguchi complains.

Tsumemasa finally stands up straight again after taking a deep breath. He looks at Yamaguchi. He has a serious look on his face which makes Tsumemasa nervous.

"You want me to help you study?" He asks.

Yamaguchi nods enthusiastically.

Tsumemasa sighs. If he wanted to study then why didn't he just ask him to tutor him or something. But no he had to drag him to the bench. Maybe this would be good for him.

"Alright, let's go. I still have a few things to do anyway," Tsumemasa says and starts walking towards the stairs.

Yamaguchi followed closely behind. He knew what his goal was, he just needed to wait patiently until his friend got distracted by his study material.

After climbing the stairs they walked through the hallway to a door with a golden plaque that reads 'Room 301'. They went inside where it was slightly cooler because it was late spring and there wasn't many people inside.

Tsumemasa looked around the room, there were a couple of empty desks and a large window overlooking the front yard of the school building. There were also bookshelves along the walls filled with textbooks and binders. He noticed some of the chairs on the corner had holes in them, probably where they fell out during exam time.

He spotted his bag lying on a desk and grabbed it. Walking into the bathroom he quickly took a shower and dried his hair. Grabbing his clothes he headed back to the room to change and put them back on.

As he was about to put his shoes back on, he realized that he forgot his shirt. So instead he wrapped a towel around his waist and pulled on his shirt. Yamaguchi looked away when he saw the older boy's chest, he couldn't bring himself to look anymore. He was just staring at his feet while playing with his fingers.

When he heard footsteps coming his way he looked up and was surprised to see his friend standing at the door.

"Is everything okay?" Yamaguchi asked.

Tsukki nodded and grabbed his bag. "Yeah I'm alright. Let's go."

Both boys walked out of the room and headed downstairs. When they got outside, Tsumemasa stopped. He didn't really feel like heading back to school.

"What's wrong?" Yamaguchi asked noticing his friend's hesitation.

Tsumemasa shook his head and sighed. "Nothing. Sorry I've just decided not to go home today. I'm not feeling well."

Yamaguchi smiled. "It's okay, I understand! I don't mind skipping practice either. We can go somewhere fun for lunch instead."

Tsumemasa stared at Yamaguchi. He was really happy that Yamaguchi understood his reasons and was willing to hangout with him.

He grinned and nodded. "Okay. Let's go."

They walked side by side across campus and headed off towards the direction of the park. While they were walking, Tsumemasa could feel his stomach growling. He hadn't eaten breakfast and lunch because he was too excited to get back to school.

Yamaguchi laughed and nudged him. "Hungry? You're pretty much always hungry."

Tsumemasa glared at him. "No."

"Are you sure?"

Tsumemasa rolled his eyes. "Yes, I'm sure."
