Chapter 16.

"Um..." I didn't know what to say so I just stared at her.

*I wonder who that is. Dear lord please be with me.* I thought holding my chest.

"Am gonna shout." She said as I put my hands over her mouth.

"Shh, please Am sorry it was a mistake I didn't know you were here." I pleaded as she bit my hand.

"Ouch."

"Don't touch me." She said sounding really pissed.

*I've gone and done it now, everyone's gonna hear about this and call me a pervert.*

"Am sorry." I said. "I'll be leaving, please I didn't mean to." I said about to roll out as the door creaked open.

"Found you!"

*Argh! Busted. What will I tell them? I didn't mean to come meet any girl here. Oh dear lord.* I thought.

"Huh? No one's here." Akatsuki said and after looking around he left.

*Safe.* I thought letting out a sigh of relief.

*I'll just leave here, don't wanna be caught.* I thought about to come out.

"Where are you going to? You'll be caught." She said grabbing my shirt.

"It's just a game it's not like am gonna die. I really don't wanna end up bothering you. Thanks for not screaming." I said rolling out.

"Just stay for now, it's not like it bothered me, I was just shocked that someone came in here."

"Really, are you sure it won't bother you?" I asked.

"Yeah."

*Ha, who's this angel? The Lord bless her.* I thought.

"I'll be under the other bed, thanks." I said rolling to the next bed.

*It's been 5 minutes now, am tired.* I thought closing my eyes.

*It's really cold here, am feeling sleepy.* I thought yawning.

*Might as well just give in to it.* I thought.

"Just look at you, you've been sleeping for half an hour now." Someone said as I opened my eyes slowly while rubbing them.

*Who's that?* I thought trying to sit up.

"Ouch." I said when I hit the bed.

"Don't you know you're under the bed?" The person asked as I looked at her.

"Yamazake?" I called as she smiled.

*So she's the one who was under the bed.*

"Am sorry, I'll get going now." I said rolling out from under the bed.

"The game ended already. We're going out together." She said as I stood up.

"Thanks for waking me." I said walking out of the room.

I went to the bathroom to wash my face.

"My hair's a mess now." I said looking at the mirror.

"Hey man, where have you been?" Akatsuki asked.

"Hiding." I said drying my face with a towel.

"Okay, let's go join the others, they are waiting outside already." He said dragging me with him.

"Hey, my hair's a mess." I said as he dragged me into his room.

"Just put on my clothes and cover your hair, they are waiting." He said throwing a black pullover and black head warmer to me.

"Huh?"

"Fast, your shorts are good." He said as I put on the head warmer and the pullover.

"Thanks."

"Take these." He said handing a sandal to me.

"Thanks."

"Guys." Akatsuki said dragging me out with him.

"You guys are finally here." Kimishita said.

"Let's roll."

"I've been trying to understand, was this place a city or what?" Nakamura asked as we walked into the amusement Park.

"For reals, this place looks just like a regular city, I wonder where the residents are."

"Well, let's just have fun."

*Yeah it's really like our own world, just that they focus on soccer.* I thought looking around the amusement Park.

I went to an amusement Park once when my mom was still alive, around elementary school with her brother and his kid.

I had fun that day and begged her most of the time to take me there.

"Earth to Atsushi." Akatsuki said slapping my butt.

"Hey, a groper." I said jokingly as he laughed.

"Crazy old lady, I didn't grope you."

"Let's go you two." Ueta said walking before us.

"Yes ma'am." We said in unison before joining her.

"Whoo, yay!"

*Argh!! Scary.* I thought shutting my eyes.

"Whoa, this is so fun!" Akatsuki shouted.

We were on the sky drop ride. I've always avoided it since I was little but I was forced to go on it this time.

"Come on, Atsu and I would be going for the slingshot bungee next." Akatsuki said dragging me with him.

*Oh, no am still scared, I hope the next one would be cool and calm.* I thought aswe got on the ride.

"Wait,What's this?" I asked.

"Wait for it." Akatsuki said.

"Argh!!!! Mommy I don't wanna die!!" I screamed as we were shot high up.

"Ha ha ha, scary kid." Akatsuki said laughing.

"Make it stop, please!" I begged.

🤮🤮🤮🤮.

I kept puking as Akatsuki handed me a bottle of water while laughing.

"You really are cute, I've missed this." He said as a tear fell from his eyes.

"Am not getting on another one again." I said about to stand as i started puking again.

"Haha. Am sorry." He said still laughing.

*This guy, what did he mean by he's missed this, does he have a brother that hates rides?*

"You're one hell of a mean person, I wonder how your little sibling feels."

"Little sibling?"

"Huh?"

"I don't have any." He said.

*Oh. Then what?*

"Oh, they're waiting for us, let's go join them in the ferris wheel." He said as I stood up.

"Lemme catch my breath."

"Let's go." He said again after sometime as we left.

We left the amusement Park by evening and left for home.

"Present time." Watabe said when we all settled down in the living room.

"Let's draw lots, give your present to whoever you have their name." Akaji said.

"Yeah."

Afte drawing, I had Saitōs' name.

"Now, give the gifts."

"Whoa, a handkerchief." I said when I opened the gift Watabe gave me.

"Thanks."

"Thanks."

"Thanks."

After we had dinner, we discussed for a long time and decided to go to bed.

"Hey, take this, Atsu." Akatsuki said handing a canvas to me when I got to his room.

"Huh?"

"It's my gift to you."

"Oh, I got the same thing for you." I said smiling before handing it over to him.

"Thanks, well then, till tomorrow."

"Yeah." I said as I walked out.

"Hey." Sugawara called giving me a head warmer over to me.

"What?"

"Merry Christmas." She said before walking out.

"Thanks."

"Ha, today had lots of problem and other stuff but am glad I overcame them." I said walking into my room.

The lights were turned off and I Ueta was already in bed.

*Whoo, time to sleep.* I thought taking off my clothes and changing into another one.

"Huh?" I asked looking at my bed.

There was a bag there. I picked it up and opened it. There was a headband, a scarf and a letter.

The headband is for your hair, you mustn't tie it always but you can hold it from falling with this. And the scarf Is for cold, don't speak to me about this tomorrow, good night.

*Hmm.* I thought smiling. *Might as well."

I brought out a bag from under my pillow and kept it on her bed.

"Merry Christmas." I said smiling before walking back to my bed.
