Story.
...
Saiko can't help but notice after the mission with the Serpent that Sasaki is just a little different.
His eyes are gray, And duller. His hair is a little more white. His voice is a little more quiet and colder. He seems a little more distant. His smiles are more fake. His nails are turning black. He dresses just a little darker. He seems bored all the time now.
These are some of the things she has noticed about him. She didn't go on the mission but she heard from the others what happened, Like how Sasaki was pushed until he showed a scary side of him that has traumatized Mutsuki.
She has also noticed that he has started a new habit of popping his fingers, He pops his middle fingers on each hand when he's nervous or worried. He pops his thumb by bending it then crushing it with his other fingers on his right hand when he is stressed or uneasy. And he pops his index finger on his right hand by pushing on it with his thumb when he is annoyed or angry.
The sound creeps her out, But what she finds the most scary about the difference in her "Maman." is his eyes. When he looks at her with so most indifference she wonders if he would even care if something were to happen to her.
It's been two weeks since they have had an mission so they all have been stuck in the house, She doesn't really care because it just means she doesn't have to work and she can play her video games. But she can tell it's bothering the rest of her team.
Shirazu has fixed his bike three times already, Every time he gets it all clean and fixed up he takes it apart and does it again.
Mutsuki keeps borrowing books from Sasaki to read. He's read at least ten already. (That's way more then Saiko would have want to have to read.)
Urie has been training every day, And when he's not training he's picking fights with everyone other then Sasaki. (For some reason since the last mission he won't go near Sasaki in less he has to.)
Sasaki himself has spent most of his time in his room with the lights off, And when he's not in his room he's just walking around the house in some type of trance, No body tries to bother him when he's like that, All for different reasons.
It's one of those times when Saiko accidentally runs into him on her way from the kitchen back to the front room were she has the Ps4 hooked up with battle field 4 playing. When she starts to feel like she's falling something strong and lightning fast grabs onto her wrist stopping her fall.
When she looks up Sasaki is looking at her with a odd smile, Something she hasn't seem on him yet. It makes her both happy and scared just looking at it.
"Are you alright?" He ask her just like he would any other time, The fact that he's acting normal puts the biggest smile on her face that she's had in a long time, She's more happy about him being normal then even not having to work.
"Um.. haha yup!" She answers, His smile just grows a tad bit more, And something in his gray eyes lights up with what she thinks is amusement?
"That's good." He say as he lets go of her wrist, Something in her hates that he had to let go.
"Um do you want to play with me?" She ask pointing toward the front room where the game system is.
His smile turns into something like a smirk and he chuckles a little. "I already am." His answer confuses her.
"Wha-" She is cut off when he puts is fingers to his mouth, Letting her know to be quiet for the moment.
After a few seconds pass he removes his fingers to his mouth. "Didn't want Him to get in my way." He states.
"Who's him?" Now her Maman is starting to scare her, Something's not right with him. He's acting very weird more weird then he has been. It's like something else has changed.
"That's not important, Now why don't we go back to my room and "Play." Some more?" He ask as he starts walking for the stairs leading to his room.
She's not sure why but something makes her follow him, Maybe it's curiosity, curiosity killed the cat after all. So when he enters his room she follows him in as well, Into the dark and empty room where Haise Sasaki sleeps and spends most of his time.
The room is bare, It only has a bed a desk and chair. And a few stacks of random books on the floor by the bed. No night stand. No TV. No posters or paintings. Saiko can't understand how he lives like this, It's so dark and boring, And it looks more like a prison cell then a bedroom.
For some reason she thinks of the time when he first got home from the mission and started acting different and she asked him if he remembered everything he forgot and he answered with a simple. "No." Then went back to doing the dishes like he was before.
She watches as he walks slowly toward his bed, As she watches him walk she notices how much his walk has changed. He walks more quiet and calmly then he ever did before. His shoulders are back more as well. That's when it hits her he's changed so much that he's not like the person she's used to seeing anymore.
Fear starts creeping it's way into her gut once she realizes that the person who's room she's in isn't her Maman but someone else's, Just as she's about to turn around and leave his room she hears it.
(Crack.) He just popped his index finger, The sound make's her heart stop. He's annoyed, That's when she looks at him again to see that he's watching her. He most have been able to read her movements and know she was going to leave.
"There's no need to fear, I won't hurt you "He." won't let me even if I tried." He states, She feels like she knows who he's talking about but she just can't figure out who exactly.
Once she relaxes a bit he continues. "Now then why don't we play some?" As the words leave his mouth he's gone, And she feels someone behind her, and hears the door shut and lock behind her.
She slowly turns to look behind her to see him standing right behind her. How he got there she's not sure.
"Um well you don't have any games." She says nervously, Watching as his smirk grows just a little more twisted.
"Well we can always just play docto-" Before he finishes his words he falls to the ground holding his head with silent screams of what she can only guess as pain.
"Damn. Damn. Damn. Fuck why now? I was only playing around. Ahhhh. Fuck I wouldn't really touch her. Damn fuck stop already!" He states as he backs up away from her until he hits the door. Once touching the door he unlocks it and opens it up grabs her hand and practically throws her out of the room and into the hall way.
Before she can ask what the hells going on. He buts a small sad smile (This one she knows without a doubt truly is her Maman.) And holds up a hand stopping her from speaking. "Please just go, I'm sorry but I can't hold him for long, And I don't want you to get hurt." His voice was the softest she has heard it since the last mission.
He then shuts the door locking it, Leaving her out in the hall way confused and scared. Just as she walks away she thinks she hears. "I.. Lied." But she can't be sure if she really heard it or not.
End Of Chapter,
This didn't turn out anything like I wanted and I really don't like it. I might leave it as is and just not make any more to it, But if enough people like it I might make more to it but at the moment it is a shitty and random oneshot sorry, And thanks for reading.
