Work Text:
Barry hasn't come to school in a few days. The last time Shin saw him, he left his signature bow on his desk. Shin held onto it, expecting Barry to show up the next day, but he never did. He's starting to get worried.
Shin paced around the club room, holding the red bow in his hands, sadness in his eyes. "Did Barry move? No, he said his parent's were stayiing indefinitely..did he change schools? Wouldn't I still see him even if he did?.." Shin kept mumbiling explanations and answers, nearly bumping into the desks with how fast he was pacing. He kept doing that, his head and feet starting to hurt as he paced over and over and over and over and-
"Ah, hello Azizam!" Shin jumped as he turned and saw the familar black haired beauty, Amir, standing before him. Amir's the club president, and Barry's the vice president..YES! Shin smiled eagerly, of course! Amir would know wouldn't he? Him and Barry have been close for a while, close enough he made barry the vice president so he has to know where Barry went! Right?..
"Amir! Hi.." Shin mumbled. "What's wrong? Amir continued. You've been doing that for the past 20 minutes..me and Dirk-" Dirk shook his head, pouting and looking away. Amir simply giggled before continuing. "It's worrying us." Shin looked away sorrowfully. "I'm sorry..it's just..Barry hasn't come to the club in days!..I know he's late but never like this!.." Shin exclaimed. Amir's friendly smile faltered, seeing Shin's distressed look. "Maybe...you've seen him?" A hopeful smile came onto Shin's face.
"I haven't seen him. My apologies." Shin's hopeful look vanished, replaced by a sorrowful look once more. "Oh..okay....thank you anyways." Amir frowned, beginning to turn around before Shin grabbed onto his hands.
Wait! Maybe..tomorrow..after school, we can look for him?" Shin smiled shyly. Amir stared for a second before nodding. "Of course! I'm sure Barry would be delighted to see you."
Shin looked away, blushing at the thought. "Maybe...now, what assignment are we doing today?" Shin went to his seat, staring at the board. Amir quickly went up to the board, writing the assignment down. "Today we're making a letter for when you feel sad!" Dirk frowned. "Why do we have to write gloomy things Amirrr, can't we write manga? That's not sad. Usually." Amir grinned. "Incorparate your manga into your letter then." Dirk smiled and got to work, Shin rolled his eyes in a friendly manner and also got to work.
Amir turned to the board, his smile falling. If only they knew. I'm sorry, Barry.
