Νουβέλα Hirano and Kagiura by Kotoko Hachijo

Kagiura is equal parts eager and anxious to start a new chapter of his life as a high schooler. He’s aiming to be a star player on the basketball team, and he’s even moved into the school dorms. Upon arrival, he discovers that his roommate is a blond, pierced, delinquent-looking upperclassman! First impressions aside, Hirano isn’t actually as rough as he seems. He wakes Kagiura up in the morning, helps him with his studies, and is a great listener, to boot. This is a peek into their daily lives and the hints of a blossoming love.
