    Summary

    The thought of marriage sent Langa's face pinching in disgust. Further still, the thought of a sister. Girls were terrifying but the idea of a brother wasn't very welcomed either.

    “I could do it.” Reki said softly, just audible over the sound of the water and Langa wading out of it. “I could be a knight.”

    “Then you could be at my side.” Langa realized with a spark of excitement of his own. Everything was infinitely better when Reki was around. He made even the most dull things fun and it was becoming a very rare occasion that Langa found enjoyment in anything.

    Gone were the unending days of play and mischief around the castle. Langa had responsibility then. Well more, since he could understand better what they had been telling him since birth. He went to study and Reki went to work in preparation for their respective futures but a knight stood by the king.

    Always.

    A dreaded rise to power, an improper relationship with someone cherished, and an arranged marriage with an innocent.. plus a hint of politics, a little bit of war & tons of chivalry.

    Summary

    They had made up and Reki finally accepted that Langa and him were on different skill levels when it came to skateboarding. It was all good between them. But that didn’t mean that Reki’s insecurities would just vanish. He felt bad for intruding on Langa’s and his mothers house, for taking up Langa’s time now in which he could be already sleeping and for having Langa waste whatever band-aids and stuff he was going to use on him. He was just causing unnecessary work.

    or,

    the one where Reki and Langa actually talk about the fight and Reki's insecurities after Langa is done taking care of Reki's sustained injuries from his Beef with Adam.

    Summary

    "Because Langa blinked at you twice and you crumbled like wet paper. You’re weak, man.”

    And... Yeah. There was no denying it.

    “I just can’t, okay? He looks at me with those sparkly eyes, and there’s this look of want on his face, and I… I can’t help it.”

    Miya looks at him in silence for a few seconds.

    “You… you do know that he didn’t look like that because he wanted to build sandcastles, right?”

    Reki tilted his head.

    Or- Four times Kyan Reki tried to give Langa what he wanted, and one time he just went for it himself.

    Summary

    “The one I want is….” Adam drew it out, enjoying the anticipation, bringing his arm to point at each skater individually, his eyes leering at them. Slowly, his hand crossed, Shadow, Joe, Miya- leaving only Cherry, horror sinking in his heart as he watched Adam smile wickedly.

    Cherry's arms were crossed tightly, Adams narrowed eyes focused on him, the giddy smile barely contained on his face. Before he spoke, his hand flicked to the side, pointing directly at his chest, “You.”

    Bright lights circled directly onto him, ignoring how painful the sight was as his eyes widened. The entire population of ‘S’ gaped, a cold air sweeping over the crowds. Not a single person had considered the possibility of Reki being the one Adam wanted, not even himself.

    “Me?!” He gawked, looking on both sides of him knowing nobody else would magically appear.

    Tldr:

    Adams request for a new skateboard causes major problems for Reki.
