You forgot, didn’t you?Kojiro frowns at his screen. forgot what?, he begins to type, but his fingers still on the screen before he can get the full message out.
Ten years. Ten years… it rings recognition in Kojiro’s mind, but only very faintly. It’s been ten years since… what? Ten years ago, they were both 17. It couldn’t be anything like a friendship anniversary; they’d known each other far longer than ten years. Then, was it something they’d done at 17?

“So…” he started as Kaoru carefully sipped his wine, sensing he was about to say something stupid, “What’s your type?”
“Excuse me?”
“People ask that on dates, don’t they?”
“No, Kojiro, they don’t,” he laughed back, gently swilling his wine in his glass, admiring the swirl it created in the liquid, “Because what if you’d actually asked that and my response was short, giggly, blonde women?”
“I’d laugh in your face.”
