I have a crush in high school. His name was (L/n) (Y/n), and he was my best friend. We were inseparable. He was on the team like me... when he was a first year, and the first semester of our second year. After that he sort of disappeared. He didn't come to school, he did his school work, but he didn't come to school. At first I thought he was just really sick, but he didn't come to school for two weeks, and I got really concerned. The teachers never mentioned it, as if he was still here. When confronted, they'd say they can't tell us because of personal reasons. There was also this girl who didn't come to school around the same time as (Y/n). According to some people who knew her, she went on maternity leave, and dropped out of school because she was ashamed of getting pregnant at 16. Some said she left her child with the father, and moved to Osaka. Personally, I don't really care about what happened to her, I just want to know what happened to (Y/n). After all this time, even after I graduated, and became a professional volleyball player, I'm still looking for him, which was why I'm here, shocked to see a male with (h/l) (h/c) hair, and (e/c) eyes, a male that looked just like (Y/n), in the park.

"Uh, are you (L/n) (Y/n)?" I asked. The male looked up, and tilted his head.

"Uh, yes?" He replied.

"(Y/n), it's me, Rintarou." I told him.

He blinked. "Rin? It's been a long time, man, how are you doing?" he asked.

"Just fine. What about you, where have you been all these years?" I asked.

He smiled sheepishly. "Honestly, nowhere. I'm just raising my kids."

"You have kids?" I asked.

"Mhm. They're over there." he said as he gestured to twins, around 5-6 years old, with (h/c) hair and amber eyes. One had long hair, and one had hair that looked like Nekoma's setter's haircut. "Kitsune! Hanako! Come here!"

The twins got up, and raced to their father.

"Yes, pa?" the one with short hair asked.

"This is my friend from high school, Rintarou. Rin, these are my sons, Kitsune, and Hanako." (Y/n) smiled.

"I'm Kitsune!" the boy with short hair exclaimed.

"I'm Hanako..." the boy with long hair said as some of his bangs covered his face.

"How old are you?" I asked.

"We're 6 years old!" Kitsune exclaimed. "What about you, Rintarou-san?"

"You're energetic, aren't ya, kid." I chuckled. "I'm 22."

"Cool!"

"Pa, can we go get ice cream?" Hanako asked (Y/n).

"Sure." (Y/n) replied as he ushered the two kids to the ice cream man.

"They're 6 years old." I repeated. "That means you had kids at 16? Or did you get a girl who already has kids?" I asked.

"Oh, I had them when I was 16. I got drunk and hooked up with this girl in our year. She found out about the pregnancy, and left me with them while she began a new life in Osaka." he explained. "I didn't have enough money to hire a babysitter, so our principal had me take a special at-home school program thing. Basically I just studied school work at home, did all the assignments while I balanced taking care of my kids. It was a bother, but I wouldn't trade that bother for the world." (Y/n) smiled as he went up to the ice cream man.

"Pa! They sell chocolate rocky road ice cream!" Kitsune exclaimed.

"There's also cherry ice cream." Hanako quietly pointed out.

"Rin, do you want anything? I'll pay." (Y/n) smiled.

"I'll pay," I said as I pulled out my wallet.

"No, I'll pay, sir take my money!" (Y/n) exclaimed as he handed the ice cream man his money.

"Ugh fine, but next treat, I'm paying." I said.

"Fine!" (Y/n) huffed.

"Rintarou-san, what flavor ice cream do you want?" Kitsune asked.

"Hm, I'll have a vanilla ice cream. And you, (Y/n)?" I asked.

"I'll have a (fav. flavor) please." (Y/n) replied. "So, that will be one cherry, one chocolate rocky road ice cream, one (fav. flavor), and one vanilla ice cream please."

"Alright, sir." He replied.

"Thank you." (Y/n) smiled. It was that smile. His genuinely happy smile. He had many fangirls back in high school, and he always faked a smile. He only really genuinely smiled around me, and our teammates. It never fails to make me blush... even now. He probably smiles like this around his kids a lot.

"OK! Here you go, you two." he smiled as he handed his sons ice cream.

"Thank you, pa!" Kitsune exclaimed.

"Thank you..." Hanako thanked (Y/n).

"No problem, kiddo." (Y/n) smiled.

I smiled as I watched his kids eat ice cream.

"What do you do for a living now?" I asked.

"I'm a professional photographer for (modeling agency)." (Y/n) smiled. "It's the only job that I wanted to do since I was young. How about you?"

"Oh, I'm a player on the EJP volleyball team." I told him.

"EJP? That's awesome." He smiled again, and I blushed again. After all these years I still have feelings for you, hm?

"Your job is pretty cool too." I told him.

"Thanks. Also, that blush is very apparent, Rintarou." He smirked. He still has that flirty tone like when we were in high school too? I thought he never kept it. "What're you thinking of?"

I smirked. "You."

(Y/n) blushed madly as he hid his face with his hands.

"We should go get dinner together sometime, Rin. As a date." He suggested.

"That would be great." I replied.

"Hmm, cool. Here's my number," he replied as he wrote down his number on a piece of paper, and handed it to me. "I have a photoshoot in an hour, so I gotta go. Hit me up." He said in his flirty voice.

"Sure will." I replied as he walked away.

I looked at my phone, then at the piece of paper and smirked.

Call me up when you're free, Rin. xoxo, (Y/n)

XXX-XXX-XXX
