Summary: Hikaru and Sai, outdoors.
Author's Notes: Written for the drabble rounds on
blind_go. Prompt was "bicycle" (from
thephoenixboy).
Yet another person threw him a strange look as he pedaled along. Hikaru groaned. They could just have gotten a regular bicycle, and then Hikaru wouldn't have had to look like an idiot, riding a tandem bicycle alone. Why had he listened to Sai?
Behind him, Sai laughed, delighted. "Hikaru! Look, I'm riding this bicycle too! I'm pedalling!"
Hikaru looked back. For half a second, he saw billowing hair, feet almost-but-not-quite in the pedals, and Sai's smile, pure, radiant, and alive.
Hikaru's spirits lifted. Well, okay. Maybe it was worth the extra thousand yen.
