+Greatful Days+
Summary #1: "When ever I turn around you were there…we travel this road to find happiness"
Summary #2: Takao Kinomiya was new to the Hiwatari industries. All it took was a traditional welcome party, a dozen glasses of wine, and a meeting with a dual-haired guy at a gay club to find out about his past life. Though, this life has somehow a connection with those around him. And it seems that he was the bearer of an ancient prophet. Can Takao manage to take all this at once?

Chapter 1: Tasking
"Here I am…I guess…" Takao murmured, taking a glance at the sheet of paper in front of him.
The bluenette was in front of the well-known Hiwatari building in Beycity, owned by the famous business man, Kai Hiwatari.
Last week, he had just been invited over to work as the assistant of the executive chief of business affairs. They probably invited him because he was an assistant of his old job, the boy guessed
It wasn't like he really wanted to do the job. But, he just had to, for the sake of his ill sister. Hikari Kinomiya was getting sicker as the days go by. Even Hiro couldn't even pay any of her medical bills anymore. The frequent visitation of the doctor and the cost of all of those vital medicines made his elder brother literally crack. Now, Takao is bombarded with all of these bills, debts, and payments, since Hiro took a so-called "break" in which he had gone away for a proximally 3 years now. That stunt made the sibling hate him with great intensity.
Another reason for taking the job was that it paid 10 times more than his old one. Though, the bad thing about it was that it was located a thousand miles away from his hometown. He was even luckily enough that someone was able to take care of his sister while he was away. 'I gotta remember to thank Hiromi for this' The man thought, sighing lightly
Takao just needed to get at least three thousand dollars by the following year, which was a high probability, considering this jobs payment. If he could do this, then he would be finished. He would be able to go back home with no strings attached and pay all his sisters debts and just be with his only family.
"Umm, excuse me." Takao asked the girl at the desk, placing the white sheet upon the counter. "Is this job still available?"
The girl took the paper, carefully examining its remnants as she tilted her glasses to an angle. It took her awhile though. She even stopped working just to read it. The paper was only about a page long. Even Takao could read it within seconds of looking upon it.
Once she was finished, the girl gave the bluenette a dull expression, shaking her head swiftly. "I'm sorry, but this job is taken"
Takao widened at this comment. This cannot be true. "What are you talking about? I-I just got this form a week ago. A job as high as this wouldn't have gotten taken this fast"
"Well, sorry, sir." The girl replied giving an apologetic look. "It IS taken. In fact, it was just taken yesterday" She smiled sadly. "We're sorry for this inconvenience."
No, it absolutely cannot be true. He traveled so far to get here. He was so determined, so willing to do this job that he even sacrificed to be with his own sickly sister. But he got here just to find out that this job was taken?!.
"No, that can't be possible." Takao denied, his voice shaking with anger and denial. "Their must be at least some other job that's available-"
"NO sir." The girl was annoyed this time. "There is no other job. Now may you please leave the building before I call the-"
"What?!?!?! I came all the way here to learn that this job was TAKEN?!?!" Takao snapped, pounding his fits upon the counter roughly. "It took me 3 hours, 45 minutes, and 10 seconds to get here. I was expecting to get this job on which was offered to me and nobody else. It even says on the paper!!!" He pointed out. "I will simply not take a denial for an answer, woman" He said giving the girl a death glare. "I want this job weather it's taken or-"
"Mr. Kinomiya."
Takao paused. This outbreak made his sapphire eyes widen and face blush a bit before turning to the person who called him.
"My name's Robert Dickenson. Please call me Robert" The old man smiled, tipping his cap in front of the blue-haired boy. "I hear you were looking for a job, am I correct?"
Takao nodded. "Well, I have the perfect job for you. Follow me." The bluenette did as he was told.
"The girl is really telling the truth Mr. Kinomiya. The form for that job we sent you is actually now taken." Mr. Dickenson told him, walking down the long hallway with his bronze cane. "That's why we decided to give you this job." At that moment, he stopped walking, turning to his right and opening a large glass door. "This is where you'll be working" The old man smiled.
Takao gasped. The place was huge. It was very similar to a regular office. Just except the large desk, an office chair, a few chairs and plants and a beautiful scenic view of Beycity behind it. It even had its own bathroom!!! The place was felt just so… unreal. "This…this whole place is…mine?"
"Yup!"
"Wait, I'm still an assistant, right?"
"Of course."
"….who am I exactly working for anyway?" (A/N: By this he means who's his boss. The company has many different sections/departments, each with their own bosses.)
"Kai Hiwatari." The man replied. Takao face seemed to go white. "You mean the Kai Hiwatari??" (A/N: Everyone in the building is working for Kai. It's just that there are only very few who actually work under his orders, such as his assistants or the managers of the major departments.)
"Yes sir"
At this point, the bluenette thought he was dreaming. Anyone who worked for the Kai Hiwatari got paid a lot. Literally.
"Well, I must go now, Mr. Kinomiya." Mr. Dickenson said, bowing slightly in front of the small man. "Have a nice time at your new job." He smiled again. "If you need anything, I'm right down this hallway." Once said, he left Takao to his thoughts.
'Considering how much Hiwatari-san pays his workers….I could get the money I want in a year or two!!' The bluenette thought with glee. 'I love my job!!' He mentally snickered before running off to his small apartment to call his sibling.
'I hate my job'
The man thought, dropping his bag while starting at the pile of papers at his desk. He had just gotten this job yesterday and already he got this much work?!
'I don't think I can do this' he sobbed, sitting down upon the office chair and taking a pen. 'Better get start-'
"Ohayo!!!" Came a loud voice from outside. The door was slightly open, yet it shown the head of a blond about his age, grinning widely.
"You're Takao Kinomiya, right? Hiwatari-kun's new assistant?"
"Yeah-"
"I'm Max Mizuraha. You can call me Maxie" He giggled, running over to the bluenette taking a seat on his desk. Max just stared at him, almost as if he was inspecting him. Takao just stared back at the blond with a confused look. "Well Mizu-er Maxie, can you get-"
"If you were wondering who I am, I work as Hiwatari-kun's other assistant"
"Wait, he has another assistant??"
"Yup. Three actually. That's me, you and, Rei-kun" Takao's eyes widened. 'Wow. He must have a lot of work if he has three assistants all at once…."
"I'll introduce you to Rei-kun later. There are a lot of people who work for Hiwatari-kun himself actually. Come I'll introduce you!!" Max smiled taking Takao's wrists and dragging him out of this office.
"Everyone, everyone!! This is Takao Kinomiya, Hiwatari-kun's new assistant." The blond yelled, barging into employee lounge with the said man in tow.
"Hiwatari has a new assistant? Who would've thought of that…."said a red-head, taking a sip of his coffee
"Well, he did fire that girl just a few weeks ago. And considering how much work the guy has, he needs a new assistant" The guy next to him commented.
"Wait, the girl got fired? Thank god. I thought she would never leave." A braided blonde-haired boy exclaimed.
"Actually she only got de-promoted. She works in the front desk now. Poor girl…that job pays ten times as lesser as her old one…." Said a pink-haired girl from across the room.
"AHEM" Max coughed out, catching the attention of his coworkers. "As I was saying, this is Takao, Hiwatari-kun's new assistant" Max smiled before giggling softly.
"Takao, these are the people who work under Kai. In fact, this entire floor his only for his employees. Anyway that red-head over there is Tala, Hiwatari-kun's business partner and the General manager. The guy next to him is Bryan. He's the business director and events manager." The blonde pointed out. "Over there is Mystel. He's Rei-kun's cousin and the executive chief. And that is Mariah. She's the operations and sales manager."
"Err….nice to meet you all." The bluenette blushed. He hadn't meet this much people all at once before...
After a few minutes of utter silence, Mariah spoke out. "Oh my god!!! The new assistant is so cute!!" The girl squealed, running over to the bewildered man and giving him a squeeze.
"Welcome to the club." Mystel smiled following Mariah, giggling silently.
"So you're the new kid? Hehe, good luck with Mr. Stoic." Bryan chucked, walking over to Takao and gently patting his head.
"….you do know that you are Hiwatari's own personal assistant right?" said Tala, keeping a frown upon his face.
"Wait, I am?" The bluenette froze. He was? Nobody told him this!!!
"You didn't know Taka-kun?" Max asked, receiving a nod. "Well, your luckily that Hiwatari isn't here today." Bryan told him. "If he was, you wouldn't be even here right now. You would be in his office, sitting on his desk while-"
"You wouldn't want to spoil the surprise for him now do you, Bryan?" Tala smirked, walking over to the group. 'Surprise? What s-surpise?' Takao thought, giving a face full of anxiety.
"Oh, you don't have worry Takao. I'm sure Hiwatari-san wouldn't do anything to you." Mystel told him with a calming face.
"…er, am I missing something here?" said a voice from behind the doorway.
"Rei-kun!!!" yelled Max and Mariah. "That's my name." The Chinese man chucked, walking over to Takao.
"So you're the new assistant…" He said, before giving a soft smile, causing the smaller man to give a faint blush. "Welcome to the group."
"Well, now that everyone's here, let's party!!" Max shouted, raising a fist towards the air.
"Uh, shouldn't that wait till after work?" Rei told him, sweatdropping.
"Oh yeah, well then let's party….after work!!" Max shouted once again. A hearty laugher was spread throughout the room.
'How was I ever dragged into this' Takao sighed, leaning over the bar counter, taking a sip of wine.
The "party" Max threw for Takao was at one of Beycity's most famed clubs. There was just one little detail he left out about it though. It was a gay club.
That's probably one of the reasons why Mariah isn't here or Mystel. And, due to the club's status, dozens of men had come up to Takao asking, even begging him to go out with them.
It was fortunate enough that the blue-haired man was able to get through them, but he had just one slight problem now.
He had gotten separated from everyone. At one point he almost panicked his heart out.
Somehow he ended up at the bar, drinking a few glasses of wine. Well more like a dozen now. And as a result the bluenette was now drunk.
"Gah, I hate my life." he mused, before turning to the person next to him. "Do you hate yours Mister…?" At that point, Takao blushed deeply. The man next to him had dual hair and deep crimson eyes. His outfit had given him a view of his spectacular muscles. And his atmosphere just simply made Takao into a trance.
"You're hot." The bluenette bluntly told him. The man gave him a smile. "I get that a lot." He chucked. "Your very pretty yourself."
Takao could practically feel his face burning at the comment. But that was probably because he was drunk, he guessed.
"Thank you…" He murmured, giving a shy look while looking away from him. The man chuckled. "Do you want to come over my place, cutie?"
"Boy, would I!" the small man exclaimed, turning back to face the him with a joyful expression. 'Wait, what am I saying?!'
"Hn. You're very cute, you know that." He smirked, before lunging in to give the bluenette a light kiss.
At that moment, Takao's world soon went black.
And so that ends this chapter. I never wrote a story this long before…..
Takao: Err…am I gonna get…raped…?
Me: No…well not really. Since you were drunk and all….
Takao: Ok, ok that's enough!! I don't want to know anymore!! -blushes and walks away-
Me: Hehe, I got a lot in store for you Takao -eyes glitter while laughing evilly-
Takao: What was that?
Me: Nothing
