Hiro let out a distressed sigh and looked around the crowded mall, silently groaning at his own fault. I am utterly, entirely, and completely lost right now. XX
When he'd first arrived at the Central Mall, he'd managed to get one of the security guards to walk him to the music store and was able to get there without trouble. The grand piano had been fixed and the proper payments given. But the second he'd walked out of the shop, Hiro had become lost in the heavy crowds. Well, shit...now what? Hiro stood on the tips of his toes, peering over the crowd at the shops lining the walls, trying to find something familiar that could lead him back to the mall's entrance. Nothing. The fact that he was so small in size definitely didn't serve to help the problem, either. XX
"Hey, Akihiro-san." In hearing his name being called, Hiro immediately turned around, and was surprised to find Aoi standing in front of him. "Hey! And nah, I'm just here fixing a piano." Grinning brightly, Hiro listened as Aoi introduced him to Chiyoko and Naoki, to whom he bowed politely. "Nice to meet 'ya!" Being called adorable simply made him smile wider, and he happily talked about the orchestra in reply to Naoki's question, also informing the taller male that he 'would never try to steal someone's girl'. "Anyway, are you lost? Shall we lead you to the entrance then?" "Indeed I am, and yes please!" XXX
As the group of four walked toward the exit, Hiro chatted excitedly with Chiyoko and Naoki about pretty much anything, dragging Aoi into the conversation a couple of times. Hiro managed to become a part of the group in no time flat, and without a whole lot of effort. "My brother's girlfriend loves your dancing, and my entire family's obsessed with Aoi's music, so I can't say I don't know a whole lot about you. Its nice to know you guys as friends." XX
Hiro continued to chat with his schoolmates until they reached the mall's parking lot, where he proceeded to thank them. "I prob'ly would've been stuck here for another hour if you hadn't come along, so I really appreciate you helping me out~" Hiro watched Naoki and Chiyoko as the two went off ahead, grinning and laughing with each other. "I can see how they make such a good couple. People who have a lot in common get along better, making a healthy relationship." Turning to Aoi, winked at the taller boy and grinned widely. "I still love the phrase 'opposites attract'. Anyways, see you tomorrow!" XX
Akihiro didn't say anything more, and simply waved to his classmate as he hopped over to his motorbike and disappeared, still grinning from ear to ear. XX
