You & Me, Etc.(2006)

1. Someday We'll....

Iku and Keita are childhood buddies. Naturally, having been friends for as long as they can remember, when one started to play baseball, so did the other. During their final year in middle school, Keita's baseball career abruptly ended as a result of the severe injuries he sustained when saving Iku from being hit by a truck. Presently, they go to the same high school. But ever since that accident, Iku has distanced himself from both the game and his friend, presumably out of guilt. What does Keita think about this?
It also contains a couple of other short stories such as Utsukushii Asu and Sakura No Junrei.

2. The Sakura Pilgrimage

Sugaya believes that guys like Fujishiro, a highly accomplished student rumored to be the next student council president, live in a completely different world and have no impact on his life. That changes one fateful day when he catches Fujishiro making out with a teacher after school. Fujishiro pays Sugaya for his silence, but not without a parting jab at how easily Sugaya's confidence was bought.
