A cool sensation appeared on his lower eyelid, but he didn't dare move, merely staring into Miya Atsumu's eyes as he had instructed him to do.
Miya Atsumu applied the pen with great decisiveness. After finishing the upper and lower eyeliner for Hinata's left eye, he moved on to the right one.
The tip of the brush traced a clear red line along the outer edge of Hinata's upper eyelid. As he finished, a sudden flash of inspiration struck Miya Atsumu, who pulled the eyeliner outward and upward, creating a delicate, tapered wing.
Atsumu lifted the brush, tilting Hinata's chin from side to side to examine him, before finally nodding in satisfaction.
Hinata felt completely dazed, his head tilting slightly under Miya Atsumu's manipulation as he allowed the other to place those large fox ears on him.
So, so handsome!
I feel like my heart is about to stop beating!
Looking at Hinata's dazed expression, Miya Atsumu gave a helpless smile. "What are you thinking about?"
Hinata said reflexively, "I was just thinking about how handsome you are, Atsumu-ge."
Miya Atsumu froze for a moment, then reached out to take one of the earrings with ruby pendants that originally belonged to him and put it on Hinata's ear. "Your Atsumu-ge is just born this handsome."
The Makeup Artist, who had been impatient for a long time, held a reflector, a ring light, a camera in his hands as he asked, "Are we taking photos now?"
Miya Atsumu nodded. "Let's do it."
After being taken in front of the logo in the main studio for a group photo, the Shibuya Tour featuring Miya Atsumu and Hinata officially began.
Meanwhile, Dog Head was still crouching in the corner, because Pharaoh had not yet completed her blacking plan.
Dog Head really wanted to help, but his hands were covered in bandages, with only the tips of two fingers exposed for using a phone. Since these were all rented props, he didn't feel it was right to use them to touch the dark foundation.
Miya Atsumu went to the front desk to pay the deposit, makeup fee, costume fee, while Hinata looked toward Dog Head.
His eyes lit up, he was about to speak instinctively.
Dog Head exploded with the fastest hand speed of his life, raising his hands to block his own dog mouth, signaling Hinata to be quiet.
Hinata raised his hand to cover his mouth, but remembering he was wearing lipstick, he didn't dare actually press it against his lips.
Pharaoh looked at him and waved at him.
Hinata also waved to Pharaoh, then silently moved behind Miya Atsumu, who was paying the bill.
Mm, he didn't see the two people from just now.
Watching the two of them leave, Pharaoh rubbed his chin and said, "The makeup artists here are incredible."
When I was registering, I only kept the settings of Fox Monster and Shinto Priest for Atsumu-senpai and Hinata, but Hinata's makeup looks.. instead of a Shinto Priest, it looks more like he's been dragged into sin by a Fox Monster..
Dog Head raised his hand to speak: "No, isn't our Inarizaki always called the followers of the Inari God? Why would there be a setting for a Shinto Priest who has gone astray?"
Pharaoh shrugged his shoulders. "You'll have to ask Atsumu-senpai about that."
Touching the large ears hanging from his head that jingled with every step, Hinata looked up and asked Miya Atsumu seriously.
By the way, Atsumu-ge, we both have a pair of ears on our heads, so why are there still human earrings?
Miya Atsumu felt it was a bit funny. "These are all common settings."
Staring at the ruby hanging from Miya Atsumu's ear, which swayed back and forth as he walked, Hinata quickly took two steps forward and grabbed Miya Atsumu's arm. "Um, Atsumu-ge.."
Miya Atsumu turned his head to look at him.
Looking at Hinata's sparkling eyes, considering how Hinata had just closed his eyes and leaned closer to him, Miya Atsumu, who had actually guessed everything long ago, asked knowingly, "What's wrong?"
Hinata spoke without hesitation: "I want to—"
Miya Atsumu extended a finger; the extra-long artificial nails the Makeup Artist had specifically applied to him to mimic claws made his fingers look even more slender.
Not now, the makeup will get ruined. We'll talk about it when we get back to the hotel tonight.
Hinata was a bit disappointed. From beneath his long sleeves, he reached out and hooked his fingers around Miya Atsumu's, letting Miya Atsumu lead him along.
Miya Atsumu searched the nearby shopping malls for a sporting goods store and, without hesitation, decided that would be their destination.
The two of them were dressed quite eye-catchingly, but in Shibuya during Halloween, it wasn't all that unusual.
On the way to the shopping mall, many people came up to the two of them to ask for photos. Aside from a few children, most requests were rejected by Miya Atsumu.
Before coming, Hinata had specially prepared some candy to give to every child who came up to take a photo with them.
Glancing at the bag he had prepared specifically for candy, Hinata looked up and said earnestly, "Let's go to the candy shop again in a little while."
“I won't have the chance to be with Xiaoxia this Halloween, so I want to bring her more candies that she hasn't seen before.”
Miya Atsumu agreed readily, "Okay."
The two arrived on the fourth floor of the shopping mall, only to see a photo of Oikawa Tooru displayed right at the entrance of the sporting goods store.
After remaining silent for two seconds, Miya Atsumu decided to pretend he hadn't seen it and skillfully avoided Mizuno's area.
His gaze swept across the sports backpacks on the shelf, Miya Atsumu's eyes immediately locked onto a black backpack on the top shelf, which was basically the same model as the one he had been carrying before.
He turned his head toward the shop assistant who had approached him. "Hello, can I take a look at that one?"
The shop assistant took the bag down and showed Miya Atsumu its interior structure.
The capacity is huge; it can easily fit a ball and a pair of shoes, it even has dedicated compartments for towels, water bottles, small items like mobile phones. Compared to the older models he had seen before, the design inside clearly caters better to most people's needs.
Miya Atsumu was very satisfied with it: "I'll take this one."
The clerk quickly packed Miya Atsumu's items, the receptionist signaled that he could pay.
And at this very moment, Miya Atsumu encountered a problem.
His nails were too long, making it impossible for him to unfasten the clasp on his own wallet.
While Miya Atsumu was struggling with his coin purse, Hinata had already finished paying and walked to his side with the receipt: "Alright, let's go!"
He puffed out his chest and held his head high, acting like some kind of big spender: "This will be the championship gift for Atsumu-senpai!"
Miya Atsumu, having failed in his struggle against the coin purse, felt quite defeated.
But when he thought about the fact that this was a gift from Hinata, he puffed out his chest and held his head high again.
Look, he has people giving him gifts, but Oikawa-senpai only has the badminton racket given by Coach Kosano!
He won big time!!
The two of them strolled through the nearby streets and participated in many interactive lucky draws organized by various merchants.
Unfortunately, the two of them didn't win anything.
As twilight approached, the two of them arrived at the location of the Sky Observation Deck. Since today was Halloween, there were no dress code restrictions within the tower, even some pumpkin decorations had been put up.
The tickets transferred by Imai were just about ready to be used, so the two of them took the elevator up to the Sky Observation Deck, which ranked at the very top of all the tourist destinations in all of Tokyo.
The sky had not yet completely darkened, but the lights were already flickering on one after another across the city.
The intertwining of neon lights and the golden-red-purple sunset formed the most beautiful tapestry, the vast metropolis stretching endlessly at this height made Hinata unable to look away.
It was different from the feeling of sightseeing on Tokyo Tower; this was a place where one could truly take in the entire city's scenery.
This city was large enough that even the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, the most grand temple in his mind, could barely be seen from here.
But he was certain that he would never get lost here.
Because.. Atsumu was by his side.
“Shoyo.”
A call came from behind.
Hinata turned his head slightly, meeting the lens of Miya Atsumu's phone.
The flash went off, freezing Hinata's figure within the camera's frame.
The sun set toward the west at a speed visible to the naked eye, the sky, which had originally been tinged with purple, gradually grew dark.
Although the stars in the sky were becoming difficult to see clearly under the influence of the city lights, the neon lights below were becoming even more dazzling.
Hinata stood at the edge, spreading his arms toward Miya Atsumu: "Let's take a group photo!"
Miya Atsumu put away his phone and switched it to selfie mode.
Okay.
He smiled with crescent-shaped eyes, leaning gently against Hinata's soft hair, said to the camera, "Happy championship!"
Hinata chuckled, "Happy championship!"
As the time at the Sky Observation Deck was coming to an end, Miya Atsumu took a few last photos and said with a hint of regret, "The scenery you admire here is purely artificial, you can't see the starry sky at all."
At this point, Miya Atsumu said seriously, "All those promotional photos they released before were photoshopped!"
Hinata's eyes lit up, he proactively suggested, "Then let's go stargazing after Haruko is over!"
Miya Atsumu froze for a moment. "Looking at the stars?"
Hinata raised his hand and answered, "Hikari-kun invited me to go skiing and to his house to read manga before, we could also go to the observatory to see the stars. There aren't many people there, so we can watch them for as long as we want."
Miya Atsumu fell silent for two seconds before finally nodding. "Sure."
Even though they were going to Nagano, it didn't necessarily mean they had to interact with Hoshiumi Hikari.
Moreover, he hadn't mastered the knack of skiing at all last time, but this time he had enough confidence to get some great shots.
He was going to wash away his previous disgrace!!
The two descended from the tower, Hinata could see Dog Head and Pharaoh from a distance, the two of them talking to ghosts and zombies draped in linen.
While saying something, Dog Head pointed toward the direction of the tower.
The two of them should still be up on the tower, probably coming down soon. I need to get out of here right now..
“Atsumu-senpai is so scary, if I ruin their date, I'm finished!”
In the very next second, Satan's Whisper sounded behind him.
“Am I really that scary?”
Dog Head stiffly turned his head and saw the Monster behind him. His vision went black, he nearly collapsed straight to the ground, but fortunately, Pharaoh, who was wearing a thick coat, reached out and caught him.
After being mocked by two people, Miya Atsumu's mouth twitched, for a moment, he was rendered speechless.
He looked at the dark-skinned zombie: "Aran, even the effort I put into this dark makeup isn't as much as your effort into whitening your skin."
Aran, who had come over to hang out after finishing the meeting and the interviews, was deeply struck: "I've already worked so hard!!"
Do you have any idea how hard he worked to get himself that white!
