Author's Note: 2nd time's a charm?
Neo's POV
Just shut up.
All of them just need to shut up. I can't live there anymore so I guess I'll go back. It's not like they hate me….I hope they don't at least. I ran away, that was the best way to put it. Even though I hated the word run, it meant I was a coward, but how could I not be a coward, being in the position I was in. Better not to think about it. As the sight of the old mansion came into sight I felt a wave of emotions hit me. Regret, sorrow, pain, hope, and even love. Guess I didn't think this through enough.
"Hello, hello runt". Guess it can't be helped. "Hello, Laito". I spoke in a monotone voice. Laito Sakamaki, my third "brother" we got a long when we were younger. I wouldn't say anything changed, because that was it. Nothing changed. One day we were happy half siblings, the next strangers not a signal glance or word was traded to each other. "What brings you here"? I turned to him. "A lot". He smirked. "What? Were you just another disappointment to him, or was it the other way around". Neither.
"No, it wasn't that". His smirk grew as he tilted his hat down. "Oh. That's too bad then". I sighed, he left. He had a habit of only listening when he was interested. I continued to walk towards the building and entered. Closing the door I stretched my arms up in the air. Well the place hasn't changed. But, they have; I already know that. Making my way up the stairs I turned to look down the hall. Empty, as always. Walking towards my old room I heard a loud thump. I quickly turned and ran to the direction of the sound. What the…"fuck"?!
In front of me on the floor laid a girl. A skinny pale girl. Who is this? I sat down to her level and examined her face. She doesn't look familiar. I breathed in. Nor does she smell familiar. I reached for her waist and pulled her up over my shoulder. Can't be helped I guess. I walked down to my old room and nothing had changed. The walls and bedding was still pink. The only difference was the scent, the girl that I was caring had been living in my room. I carefully placed her down on the bed and walked out of the room. Someone's behind you. "What are you doing here".
I jumped. "Ah! Oh, hi Reji". He frowned and looked me up and down. "Why are you here, and why are you such a mess"? I frowned back at him. "Can't I come home to see my brothers"? He sighed, pushing his glasses further up to the bridge of his nose. "I'd much appreciate if you would please drop the sarcasm, as I did ask you a question". If you knew who I was you wouldn't care. You'd throw me away like, like him. You all would. No of you would care. "Neo". I meant it's not like I ever mattered. "Neo". Even when I was younger, whenever I messed up and couldn't use my powers you all looked at me the way he does. "Neo"! You don't care, you've neve-. My thoughts were brought to a halt when I felt a hand grab my wrist and pull me. "You're not listening to me". I furrowed my eyebrows at him. "Let go".
Gaining no response I sighed. "Fine, I'll listen". A silence formed after my agreement. "If-". "You say that now, but you won't. You'll pull another one of your outrageous acts and be gone, like last time". I sighed and stopped walking, while using my strength to pull away. "It wasn't my fault". He turned to face me. "Oh really"? I scoffed. "Oh, you're surprised it wasn't my fault for once, if you'd just-". Cutting me off he said "If I would what? Be a better brother, how was that possible when I've done so much for you"?! My jaw dropped slightly. "You're not leaving again, and you're to attend meals and school with us, understood"? I paused looking at the floor. "Ne-". "Whatever you want". He turned to walk away when I spoke up. "Who's that girl"? He stopped still in his tracks. "That's Yui Komori". He left after answering me. Yui Komori?
He doesn't care, he just wants to put me back on that leash of his. Ahh. A pounding pain roose in my chest. "Fuck". I whispered to myself. Ever since I was a child I've had harsh pains in my chest. I was never able to figure out why, until a month ago. I closed my eyes to sooth the pain away somehow but nothing happened. I opened my eyes and in front of me was my 6th "brother" Shu Sakamaki. He was the best out of all of them. He watched me when I was younger, while instead Reji would yell and judge my every move. When I would mess up he'd say try again, while Reji would linger on my mistake and compare himself to me. He never smiled, but he was always kind and talked to me when I would need help. If there was anyone that did care, it would be him.
He placed his hand on my own above my heart. Whenever I would feel this pains when I was younger he would follow this same act, as a silent saying of "It's gonna be okay". I gingerly smiled at his gesture. "I'm fine, it's nothing I've never dealt with before". He frowned at my words. "It's irritating how you lie so easily like that". His eyes twitched slightly. "It's even more annoying that you'd think I'd believe something, like that". He stood up and walked away patting the top of my head.
Yui's POV
I have to run away. "From where and where would you even go". "I don't know I just have to leave". "Oh you're not leaving so soon are you, bitch-chan"? Oh no, he found me. "What would we do without you, Chichinachi"? I have to go somewhere anyone?! Can't anyone hear me? Why can't I speak?! "Just behave like food does"!
"AHH"!
"Sounds like a pleasant dream". I turned to my left and there was Ayato. "Huh, Ayato? Why ar-". He scoffed. "You went and collapsed in the hallway, I didn't have to carry you but my sister did and you should be thankful she did". My eyebrows roose. Sister? "Um, wait you have-". "Yah, I have a sister, she's been gone this whole time, so I wonder why she's back. But, her name's Neo, don't expect much, because she isn't". "Uh, wha-". He's gone. Neo…..Neo Sakamaki. The 7th Sakamaki.
