To Yuya

“Onii chan!” yelled a cute little girl outside near the main gate of her school.

Yuya walked up to her.

“Mocchan! Are you ready to go?”

“Eh?! Stop calling me that…I’m already in highschool…”

“So you are saying that you are too old for me? Fine…go ahead…I will go back to the dorms…”

“No…I didn’t mean that…get back here!” she said while pouting.

“Jaa…let’s go eat some ramen…”

“Yay! Let’s go…let’s go!” she said changing her mood quickly.

{She’s too cute…}

They walked to a nearby ramen stall and ordered.

“So how was school?” he asked.

“It was fine. I’ve been asked out by a guy…”

“Oi! No dating until you are 52!”

“Onii chan! Yadda!”

“Fine fine fine…you have to let me meet him…if he wins against me in arm wrestling then he can date you…”

“What?! No one can win against you! You are too strong..murimuri”

They laughed. The ramen was severed to them and they began eating.

“Itadakimasu~~~”

“Hey onii chan…have you told him…”

“I did…”

“OHHH! What happen…what happen…!”

“We’re dating now…”

“EHHH??! Sugoi!”

“Don’t tell ‘kaachan though…she will freaked out…”

“I won’t besides…’kaachan moved out already. I’m living with pachan now~”

“EH!”

“Yeah…papa didn’t like how she treated you so they got a divorce…right now they are separated…”

“EH?!! It must be hard…”

“It’s not really! It’s much easier actually…I couldn’t stand her…”

“Hey! That’s our mother …”

“I know…but she never acts like it…she’s so selfish…”

“Stop…let’s talk about something else…”

“Hmm…so…did he poke you…”

Yuya spit out all the ramen that was in his mouth.

“Ewww! I guess that’s a yes!”

“Urusaiiiii!!!” he yelled.

The sister only giggled.

{Speaking of Teppei…he hasn’t called me yet…It’s already 9 pm…maybe I should call him…}

Yuya called Teppei.

 

 

To Haruma

“Hey! Are you still with me?”

Koike didn’t give him any response. {This bad…we are almost there…} Koike’s phone ringed. {I can’t answer it now…hold on for a few more minutes…}

Haruma ran towards the check in desk. The nurse looked at him and immediately started calling for the doctors. Haruma grabbed Koike’s cellphone and the nurse took him away. Haruma opened Koike’s cellphone and it was locked. {I can’t call anyone…I don’t know the password…}

Luckily, Yuya called again and he answered.

“Moshi moshi!”

“Hey …wait! Who is this? How did you get this phone?” yuya asked angrily.

“Wait…chotto! Don’t get upset…”

“You have 10 seconds…10…9…”

“Wait wait…I am Haruma Miura. Your boyfriend was in a fight with like 20 or so guys… and he’s badly hurt. I rushed him to the hospital…”

“EH! Which hospital?!”

“NCT”

“On my way…wait for me…”

“I will…”

 

To Yuya

“Nii chan…what’s wrong?”

“I need to go to the hospital…so come on…I will buy you icecream…” he signalled the guy to give her icecream. Not only did he give them icecream to go, he also gave them ramen to go.

“Thank you so much!” they said while bowing. Then they ran off.

“What happened?” she asked.

“Teppei’s been hospitalized…”

“WHAT!!??!”

“Yeah…Run inside so I can go over there now…”

“Okay! I hope he will be fine ‘Nii chan…”

“Me too…okay we are here.”

They made it in front of the apartment.

“Love you nii chan”

“Love you too Mocchan! Jaa ne!”

She waved goodbye and ran up the stairs to her dad’s apartment number which was a floor above their old apartment. He waited till she ran inside the apartment. Then he jetted off to the hospital.

To Haruma

A nurse walked over to him.

“Haru kun!” she said.

“Hey! How is he?”

“He’s in surgery right now. What happened to him?”

“I don’t know. I looked out the window and he was being attacked by like a mob of guys. Why is he in surgery?”

“He has a few broken ribs. We are checking to make sure he doesn’t have any puncture organs. So far the other nurses’ that were inside told me that if you didn’t bring him to the hospital he would have died. It seems like the broken ribs was pressing against his lungs limiting his airflow. He would have suffocated…”

“Oh man…that’s bad…”

“Yeah…We are contacting his family now. Are you going to see your parents?”

“Yeah…I will…uhh if a guy name Yuya comes in…send him to my parents’ room.”

“Will do…wait yuya what…”

“I don’t know his full name…but he’s a young guy with medium length black hair and a pony tail…he has pretty brown eyes…”

“You know…you just…described like a million guys…”

“He will ask for me…”

“Fine fine…will do”

Haruma walked towards the room where his family always stayed in.

 

To Takehito

The guys made it back to their hangout spot aka the joint.

“Sorry Boss…” said one of the members.

“Tis fine…plan B…will go according to plan…right!” he said while walking towards the bowing members.

“Yes…”

“By the way…what’s plan B?” asked one of the members.

“It’s this…” he said as he took out his cellphone.

“What is on it?”

“It’s the proof of their blasphemy…”

“Are we going to send it to everyone?”

“No…I will show it at the competition…since teppei is injured he won’t be able to fight…but it doesn’t mean that 1,000 of supporters won’t be there to see this…It’s going to ruin his career. I can’t wait to see Yuya’s face…hahahaha it will be priceless…Who’s will be the news caster for this event…”

“It will be Hiroki Aiba’s last event he will cover…after that he will begin his new position in the student council…”

“Beautiful…get me…Aiba…tell him…I have a beautiful story of… friendship he should play for the audience…to…uh…represent Koike…since he will be absent…”

 

To Yuya

Afraid of the bad news he may receive, he ran to the check in counter like a mad man.

“Where…haruma…” he asked with taking breaths in between his words.

“You are?” the nurse asked.

“Yuya Matsua…”

“Haruma is in room 106…it’s straight ahead and two doors on your right”

“Thanks…” he said while he sluggishly jogged to the room. He had used up his energy to run to the hospital. Anyway, he enters the room and noticed that his lover wasn’t there. {Am I being tricked? Where’s HARUMA!!!} He was pissed.

 

To Haruma

He heard the door slam open and he turned around. {Oh! Boyfriend is here…Woah he looks pissed}

Yuya looked at Haruma with pure hatred in his eyes and ran towards him.

“Where is he?” he yelled as he snatched up Haruma.

“Umm…chocking me won’t help the situation… let me down…please…”

Yuya let him go and asked, “What do you mean? You did this didn’t you…”

“First of all…why don’t you sit…It’s going to be awhile before you see him…and plus not so loud…okay…” {Why did I say that…it’s not like my parents will wake up…}

He sat down in the empty chair.

“What do you mean?”

“He’s in surgery…”

“What happen? And Who are they?” he said while trying to calm down.

“They…are my parents. They were in a car accident a few months ago…”

“AHHH!!! I know about you…I saw you on the news in the dorm…you’re the new guy…” {It couldn’t be the new guy…He’s not stupid to cause problems…welp I just made an out of myself…oh well…}

“Yeah…I was getting my paperwork done and then…I heard someone screaming…and I looked out the window and your boyfriend was being attacked by some guys…it was like a gang…and they had weapons too…I was too high up to see all of their faces…but one of the guys looked familiar…but yeah I screamed and they left him alone to come after me. I ran to him and took him to the hospital. He’s in surgery now…” {Oh snap…I said it again…hopefully he didn’t catch on…}

“Thank you so much…” yuya said while crying. {Wait…how does he know I’m his boyfriend…Koike and I just started dating…}

Haruma gave him a tissue and Yuya firmly grabbed his hand.

“How do you know about Koike and I?”

“Uhhh see…”

Yuya glared at him. {Shoot…he’s more observant than I thought…}

Haruma sighed and answered him truthfully.

“I saw you guys…have …in the locker room…”

“What?!”

“It’s not like I was watching…like…I was stuck in the locker…some guys…locked me in there … and yeah…I was gonna ask you guys to help me…but…you started kissin and gropin…i….i dared not to say a word….”

Yuya blushed.

“Don’t tell anyone…it might ruin him…he has a bright career you know…”

“Why should I tell? Who should I tell? I’m new and I don’t know anyone nor do I like gossip…I won’t tell… it’s a precious secret. It’s safe with me. But that guy…he seemed pissed…”

“What guy…”

“He was watching you guys…he was getting dressed during that time …and he stopped and watch you guys…he recorded it as well…OH! That was the same guy that jumped him…”

“Wait what…who is he?”

“I don’t know…I’m new…I…”

“Sorry…I forgot…”

Yuya got out of his chair and paced around the room.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m trying to calm down…pacing helps me calm down…”

“Ahh…okay…”

“Do you remember any of his features…”

“Uhh…he looked normal…”

Yuya stopped and stared at him.

“Normal…how is that suppose to help me?!” Yuya angrily said while he punched a hole in the wall.

“Oi! I gotta pay for that!” yelled Haruma as he stared at the hole.

“Sorry…I didn’t mean too…”

“I know…let’s just wait till he gets out of surgery and is conscious…”

“Yeah”

“You can stay with me…my apartment is close by…”

“Uhhh…”

“Oi! I’m not trying to hit on you. Visiting hours are almost up and my place is closer than the dorms….so…”

“How do you know I live in the dorms?”

“Is this 22 questions? Geez…the Principal said that everyone moves into the dorms. So I just assumed…and no im not a stalker…anymore questions…”

“Uhh…do you have a microwave?”

“Of course…”

“Okay…no more questions….”

“Good…now turn around…”

“What for?”

“I have to say bye to my parents…”

“Uh…sure…okay…it’s sweet of you to buy them a cake too…you must really love your parents…” Yuya said as he turned around.

“I do love them but I’m not the one buying the cake…” Haruma said as he kissed his mother’s forehead and walked over to his father’s bedside.

“What?”

“Someone has been leaving a piece of my mom’s and my favourite cake by their bedside. I don’t know who it is cuz they never sign the guest sheet…” Haruma replied as he kissed his father on his forehead. Then he walked towards Yuya.

“Hmm…isn’t that illegal…”

“Not if they are just walking in and walking out…” said Haruma as he left the room.

“Eh! I guess cuz this is a small hospital compared to others…” said Yuya as he followed Haruma. {Still weird…maybe…the person asked the nurse to deliver it…}

“Nurse…call me as soon as he wakes up…” said Haruma as he left the hospital. Yuya bowed as he left.

They walked a few blocks away and went to his apartment.

“Home sweet home!” Haruma said as he unlocked the door. They took their shoes off at the entry way and entered.

“So this is your home. Are you not staying in the dorms?”

“I am. The principal said this will be my haven. Just in case, I get tired of all my angry senpais who loves punching walls” he said while staring at Yuya.

“Hey! Why you lookin at me? That was on accident. Besides, I am a good guy. I just have some pent up anger…would you rather me hit you or the wall?”

“Oi! Oi! Calm down. I was just joking. I prefer neither…honestly. Both costs money. Anyway, I shall call you Yu senpai.”

“We aren’t even friends yet…”

“Um…okay…so I’m keeping a dire secret of yours and I invited you to my home…oh not to mention I saved your boyfriend’s life and I’m not asking for anything in return…so I assume …we are friends…ne?”

“I guess…well at least call me something else…Yu senpai is weird…”

“Pshh… fine…I will call you yapai!”

“Wait what…no…ewww…”

“Yappai!!!! Yuya + Senpai = Yappai!”

“…If I tell you that I feel like hitting someone…will you change my name?”

“Hmm…no…I think I will still keep it”

“You know you are annoying right…”

“If I am so annoying then leave…”

Yuya sat down instead and sighed.

“I…don’t mean to be annoying…it’s just I don’t really have friends…”

“Really? I can tell…”

“Yeah…after my parents accident…I lost everything…” Haruma said with a depress face as he went to boil some water for tea.

“No you didn’t…”

“What?”

“You think you have but you haven’t.”

“How are you going to tell me my pain?”

“See…you think of it as pain. You need to turn the idea upside down. Think about it this way. All the fakery and or ery left your life in order to make room for your new life…so which is better? I’m depressed forever in pain…or This is time for me to start over…your decision…”

“Yeah…I haven’t thought about it that way…well kinda…but…yeah you are right…Thank you”

“No problem. I may look cold but I’m really a nice guy”

Haruma giggled.

“What?”

“You sure do know how to complement yourself.”

“Ahh…I guess I’m slightly narcissistic too”

“Hahaha…Who told you slightly?”

“Hahaha Koike…well…slightly wasn’t the word he used but he said I’ve gotten better”

“So cute”

“Hahahaha”

Haruma gave Yuya some green tea with honey and sat next to him.

“So you start in August?”

“Yeah...I’m kinda afraid…”

“Eh? What for?”

“Everything will be brand new…what happen if I can’t adapt to it? And I don’t know what to do…the principal just gave me classes…”

“Hahaha everything is new at first and of course no one knows what they want to do at first. So in that case what do people usually do? They just jump right in, right? You gotta do the same thing…”

“Maa…I guess so…”

“You’ll do fine. What classes do you have?”

“Ah…here…”

Haruma took out his phone and opened the app.

“Ahh! You are in my class! Can’t believe you just started and you are on my level!”

“Eh? Really! Wait…level? Is that important…”

“Ah! Your councillor didn’t tell you? The GAYA class system is based on your first level entry. The one in class A and B have outstanding talent and people would kill to get into those classes. So you have to do your best so you don’t get degraded.”

“Eh! I didn’t take any test…maybe it was my manager that got me into A…”

“Hmmm maybe…but the criteria for 1^st years are looks and personality…So far you have an A- in looks…”

“HEY!”

“Hahaha just joking. You are good looking and if the principal likes you then you are pretty much in level A.”

“So…what level does it go to?”

“A is the highest and D is the lowest…However…once you reached second year there isn’t a D level anymore.”

“Eh! Why is that?”

“Because they usually just quit. Very few have moved from Rank D to rank C let alone B or A.”

“EH! Kibishi….”

“Not really…Being in C or D level doesn’t mean that you aren’t good looking, it means you are lacking something and you have to find out what it is…if you can’t then…you leave. The school doesn’t kick you out.”

“Ah! So have anyone been demoted?”

“Yeah…but there are some special cases though. Some people who were in B level had to be put into C level because the class was full. So the principal is starting a new system starting this August that the letters won’t mean anything after 1^st year. Your graduation grade will be based on GPA.”

“Eh! So…I guess it must have happened a lot?”

“Not really…it’s just the 2^nd Years have a lot of students…its funny actually. We decided to call 2^nd year level C: 2-B-2. Hahaha even though they are in homeroom C, on their transcript it is either says A, B, etc…”

“So in reality, level only matters to first years?”

“Yeah pretty much…so you are in a good class. But it might cause some jealousy though…so watch out…”

“What do you mean?”

“Well…when GAYA seeks new talent…they send you to a predebut school and then you get into your level that way…but you…skip that part”

“Maji de…”

“Yep yep yep…but if you have any problems…just remember I owe you one…”

“Haha Yoroshiku…”

Yuya laughed and finished his tea. Haruma phone rang.

“Ah! Hey…yeah…yeah…yukatta…okay…Thanks.”

“Who is it?”

“It’s the hospital. He’s out of surgery and it went well. He’s resting and we can visit him tomorrow morning.”

“Great…I was so worried…”

Yuya had tears flowing from his beautiful big eyes. Haruma hugged him and sat next to him.

“Thank you so much…”

“Eh? What are you talking about?”

“You saved Teppei…I seriously owe you one”

“I know…I know…stop the whining. Let’s get some sleep…”said Haruma as he took Yuya’s cup to the sink to wash.

Yuya nodded his head and lay on the floor.

“Oi! Get the futon!” said Haruma as he point to the closet. Yuya walked to the closet and grab the futon. He set up in the living room and Haruma went to his room to get some extra clothes.

“Here are some night clothes. Take a shower first”

“Ah thank you…”

“No problem…”

Yuya went to the bathroom to shower first and he went inside his medicine cabinet to look for a spare tooth brush for after his shower. He noticed that he had a lot of anti-depressant medicine. {Wow…he’s on the ones I use to take…those are heavy dosage type of anti depressants…geez…} Haruma did a little bit of cleaning and noticed some ramen on the floor. {Ah…what a waste of ramen…it should be eaten fresh…oh well…I will leave it just in case…}

Yuya finished and went to bed while Haruma took his shower. {I wonder…does it hurt?...wait what am I thinking…I need to stop going back to that time…}

“Lalalalalalala…” yelled Haruma from the shower trying to remove the imagery that was flashing in his mind.

Yuya knocked on the door and asked “Are you okay?”

“Oh yeah…sorry I…was…warming up my voice…” he said in a weird tone.

“If you say so…I’m going to bed first…”

“Alright…see you tomorrow…”

{Idiot! Maa…e wa…}
