Kiyoshi let out a soft breath and nodded, relaxing back against the bench, letting his arm rest, draped over his knee so if the popsicle melted, the drops would hit the ground, not him.<br/><br/>"It is hot. Too hot." He took a careful bite at the popsicle, glancing at Ryosuke and smiling back at him before tilting his head back to look up at the sky.<br/><br/>He looked at Ryosuke, nodding his head once. "Yeah, I am looking forward to it. I can sleep. Are you looking forward to it?"<br/><br/>He sucked in a soft breath, then took another bite of his treat. His legs shifted so they could stretch out in front of him. He was so tired of being cramped behind a desk, he was ready to have some breathing room and space from everything at school. Thank god for holidays. He didn’t know what he’d do without them.<br/><br/>“Anything you’re planning on doing?” Kiyoshi asked after a few moments. “I’m just going to relax and play video games, maybe jog in the morning. Work at the business building for a few hours each day.”<br/><br/>“But if you have anything you want to do when we hang out, we can do it. Just let me know. I never really get to see you when we’re in school. I miss being able to hang out with you.”<br/><br/>It was a few minutes more, maybe ten, then Kiyoshi spoke hesitantly, something unusual for him to do.<br/><br/>“I might have a really good chance at this scholarship, Ryo…if I get it, I get a full ride to this university.”
