Sakuya Sakuma’s Twin Bun Era(REAL)(NOT CLICKBAIT)(GONE WRONG)

Happy Halloween!!! This is a sequel/alternate POV to my friend @hqissodelicate’s fic, so be sure to read that as well!! Hehe enjoy!!

It’s not every day that one of your troupemates and your former senpai ask if they can dress as you and your boyfriend for Halloween, that was for sure. And yet, here Lu was, blinking in surprise as Isa proposed the idea to her and Sakuya one evening.

“It would be fun, don’t you think? Banri-kun was the one who suggested it!” Isa explained giddily, beginning to bounce on her toes.

“That sounds really cool, you two! Of course you can dress as us!” Sakuya replied, his smile just as bright as Isa’s, making it almost impossible for their partners to see through their blinding light.

“So who would be who?” Lu asked, still a little unsure on the idea.

“We figured I could be you, an’ Isa could be Saku,” Banri explained.

Lu let out a snort.

“Sorry, Banban, but I doubt you could pull off my look, it’s a little too… girly for you, don’t you think?” She retorted smugly.

“You little— you’ve seen me crossdress before, dammit! I know for a fact I’d look better in your clothes than you do!” He shot back, glaring down at her.

“I’d like to see you try.”

“Oh, it’s on,” he snarled.

“Please calm down, I’m sure you both look nice in Lu’s style!” Isa cut in, stepping between the two of them.

Banri sighed, reluctantly turning away from Lu to take her into his arms.

“Sorry, sorry, I know ya don’t like it when we fight,” he said, shielding her from his rival, right as she mouthed “whipped,” pantomiming a crack. He only grumbled, planting a kiss to Isa’s forehead to hide him flipping off Lu.

She could only giggle as the other couple left the room, leaving just her and Sakuya. Once she was sure they were out of earshot, she turned to him.

“Are you thinking what I’m thinking?”

“I’m pretty sure!”

“Well, we’d better get on it, then! Let’s hit up a thrift store tomorrow and start! You know any good spots?”

“Who do you think you’re talking to?”

The next day, the two met up in front of a place Sakuya had his eyes on for a few weeks, a new thrift shop that opened up near the train station. They exchanged a determined look before taking the other’s hand, stepping into the shop.

They were not prepared for the sight that would greet them.

There, right in the middle of the cramped store, stood Banri and Isa, comparing different purple jackets on him in the women’s section.

Lu panicked, quickly ducking behind a rack in the men’s section, dragging a confused Sakuya with her.

“What’s going on-?“

“Shh! There,” Lu whispered, gesturing over to where their rival couple stood.

Sakuya poked his head out from between the clothes, only to immediately duck right back in.

“What do we do?” He asked, just as panicked as Lu. She only shrugged.

“It would take too long to wait them out, but we can’t start shopping without looking suspicious.”

“Should we just pretend it’s not for the costume?”

“Yeah, that might work!”

“Okay! Let’s get out of here, then,” Sakuya decided, stepping out from behind the rack, with Lu doing the same.

And yet the two, despite being actors, were awful at lying.

They found themselves aimlessly browsing the store, trying to make their way towards racks filled with plaid shirts and purples more than anything Sakuya would ever wear, and more dresses than Lu could be comfortable in. They struggled to make their movements look natural, and, no matter what they did, Isa and Banri found them anyway.

“Sakuya-kun, Lu-chan! What a coincidence!” Isa greeted, cheerfully jogging up to meet them.

“Uh, ahaha… nice to see you too, Isa-senpai! What are you doing here?” Lu returned, still holding the purple button-up she was examining.

“We came to get started on our costumes! What about you two?”

Lu hesitated, desperately turning to Sakuya for help.

“We’re just…shopping around! This place is one of our usual date spots after all, right, Lu?” Sakuya supplemented, awkwardly looking up to her.

“Right!”

Banri raised a questioning eyebrow.

“‘S rare that you shop in the men’s section, Lu, what’re ya up to?”

Lu gulped.

“I’m just looking for, um, a sweatshirt! Yeah, that! It’s better when they’re oversized, don’t you think?”

He only looked to the purple button-up she was holding, then back up to her. Then back to the button-up.

“…right,” he drawled.

The four sat in silence, each unsure of what to say or do in this scenario.

“Well, it was nice seeing you two, and good luck with your costumes! You can always ask to borrow clothes from us if you want to!” Sakuya exclaimed, trying to free everyone from the tension.

“Yep! You two have fun on your date, okay?” Isa returned, taking her partner by the arm, even if he refused to look away from the other couple.

Sakuya and Lu let out a sigh, their bodies relaxing instantly. Sure, that didn’t go as well as it could have, but it was decent enough to hopefully deter any suspicion from the two. Lu returned to the shirt she was holding up.

“I know this isn’t plaid, but it should work, right? It’s a deep enough purple,” she mused.

“Yeah, it looks good! But what about the vest?” Sakuya asked. Lu physically cringed.

“I am not wearing that thing. I’m pretty sure that’s a crime in three different countries.”

He had to laugh.

“I can’t say I don’t agree! I’m sure you’ll look good regardless, though.”

Lu blushed way more than she wished she had at that.

“Thanks. But what about you? We found a dress, but what about your hair?”

“What about it?”

“Isa’s buns?”

“Oh… right.”

By the time Halloween arrived, the two had spent far too long altering their clothing and begging Yuki for tips that they had entirely forgotten about the issue of hairstyles. It only came to them once they had finished putting everything on, from Lu’s slightly less obnoxious version of Banri’s typical spring outfit to Sakuya’s take on something Isa would wear, a white camisole dress complete with matching heels and a cardigan.

After they took their time praising and admiring their handiwork in the mirror of Sakuya and Citron’s dorm room, Sakuya froze, turning to Lu.

“Buns.”

“Buns?”

“Buns.”

“BUNS!!!”

In a flash, Lu was rummaging through her bag, searching for a hair tie at the bare minimum, hoping that, worst case, she could tie up some of his hair and call it good enough. His hair was short enough to pass it off, right? It wasn’t like it would take to a lighter dye, either.

After what felt like a thousand years of searching, she turned up with nothing. Lu sighed, sitting herself down on one of the cushions. Looks like their plan would only have to be half-baked.

Sakuya found himself sitting next to her, taking her hand in sympathy for some reassurance. He knew to wait for when she was ready to talk in these situations. After all, it’s what he would want, too.

That was, until he took a good look at Lu’s own hairstyle she had chosen for the day.

“…Lu?” He murmured, giving her hand a squeeze.

“Sorry, Saku, I know I should’ve been more prepared,” she sighed, squeezing his right back.

“No, Lu. Your twintails.”

“Hm? What about ‘em?”

“Can we use the hair ties from this? Banri keeps his hair down most of the time anyway.”

Lu’s eyes widened.

“Of course! Thanks, Saku!” She squealed, pulling him into a tight hug where he could only giggle.

In a haste, she undid her usual hairstyle, transferring it over to Sakuya with relative ease. Once she finally finished, she turned him to the mirror.

“What do you think?”

“It’s perfect! You ready to show them?”

“Yep! Let’s blow ‘em away!”
