On the first day of his school, Jin's woken up at 5:45 in the morning by his frantically ringing phone. "What," he grunts into the mouthpiece. "Someone better have died."
"Jin," Ueda hisses. "Have you forgotten today's Nakamaru's first day? Where the fuck are you? Kame, Koki and I have been waiting for you for the past twenty minutes, you idiot! You have the key, remember? You promised you wouldn't forget!"
"Oh shit," Jin curses, scrambling out of bed. With the phone still glued to his ear, he pulls on a pair of pants hurriedly, running a hand through his tangled hair. "I'm coming," he snaps into the phone, "give me fifteen minutes."
He probably breaks about ten traffic laws driving to Nakamaru's house, but he makes it there in twelve minutes, racing up the stairs so fast he almost tips forward on the last stretch.
"Here," he pants, holding out the copy of Nakamaru's apartment key.
"Thanks," Ueda says, snatching the key from his hand and turning the lock quietly.
"Smooth," Kame says quietly, eyebrows quirking when he notes Jin's bed hair and swim trunks.
"Shut up," Jin scowls, then tries to steal some rice from Koki. He gets his hand slapped away by Junno.
"If you make a sound, I'll kill you," Ueda warns them all as they tiptoe into the kitchen. Koki, Junno and Kame put their offerings (soup, rice and muffins, just in case) on the table, while Ueda rummages around for the kitchenware.
Jin remembers the pickled radish still sitting in his refrigerator and feels distinctly guilty. He busies himself with making sure the forks are neatly aligned, while Ueda puts out a stupid congratulations card he insisted on making himself. It also sang, which was pretty cool. Then again, it sang Tegomassu's Miso Soup, which wasn't very cool.
When Nakamaru wakes up at 6:30 sharp, coming into the kitchen yawning and trying to smooth his hair down, he gives a violent start and almost walks into a chair when he notes breakfast and five very sleepy bandmates situated around his kitchen table.
"I. What. Guys," he says, eyes filling up with what looks like tears.
"Congratulations?" Jin says lamely, their entire sending off speech that Kame made them practice yesterday forgotten.
Breakfast is a happy, if tired, affair, and when Nakamaru leaves, he thanks each of them individually, eyes almost filling up again.
When he gets to Jin, he grabs him in a brief hug, whispering in his ear so quietly that Jin almost thinks he imagines it, "thank you, Jin. If you hadn't done your best to fulfill your dream, I wouldn't have either."
