ADVICE: IT'S HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO LISTEN TO THE MUSIC I MENTIONED BEFORE THE CHAPTER STARTS AS ALL MY INSPIRATION ABOUT THE STORY IN EACH CHAPTER ARE BASED ON THE SONGS I LISTEN TO. AND PLEASE DO NOT BOTHER TO WEAR A HEADPHONE OR SOMETHING WHEN YOU'RE LISTENING TO IT! AND I CAN SURE YOU'LL HAVE FUN THEN! :D
I will name all the chapters with Japanese songs that I am familiar with :D
And I'll probably end each chapter with a song's lyric (but probably I'll set it on the middle of the chapter, it depends on what had the plot goes until.)
Probably I need someone to help me to think about further plots to go on…
Hope you guys will enjoy the song as well as you guys reading my work :D
And please do give advice to me about the language as I really wanted to improve in my writing skill w
For your information, I did not own the characters, and the lyrics. The character is belongs to Kazue Katō. I'll mention each of the lyric's owner just before each chapter begins.

Chapter 1: Begin
"Nii-san! You have to look at this!"
Currently Yukio is pulling Rin excitedly towards his desk.
"The heck?" frowning, Rin stops besides Yukio, standing against the desk in their room.
"You have to look at this!" pointing at the screen of the laptop he got around 3 months ago, gifted by the school as part of the scholarship, Yukio grinned towards his twin brother, "They like your cover of this song so much!"
"What? What cover?" frowning at the statement that his twin brother stated to him, Rin pull his eyesight towards the monitor screen of the laptop. As Yukio pull his finger back from the surface of the laptop, he moved his hand quickly, controlling the mouse, sliding it towards the play button place at the middle of a black patch.
And a familiar voice stared to flows out from the speaker.
"Hey! That's my voice!" Rin flustered as he realise that the familiar sound belongs to him himself, "When did I put this up on the internet?"
"It's me, Nii-san," Turning his face from the screen, Yukio grinned at his now red-cheeked twin brother; "I purposely record your voice and upload it to the internet."
"What?" Rin's face had gotten to a further redness, somehow glitters under the laptop's screen light as Yukio's word hit his mind, "Why did you do that?"
"Because you like to sing isn't it? So I decided to do this!" Yukio's grin widen as he continue on his conversation, "This probably can make you a friend and two, besides…"
"I don't need a friend!" Rin frowned as he protested immediately, looking away from his younger brother, "…I mean I don't need to use this to make friends…"
Due to Rin's overwhelming strength since his childhood time, and with his well-known bad temper, Rin didn't get any friends as he grown up. People around Rin were afraid of him. They called Rin as "Demon" "The freak" and stuffs. This hurts Rin a lot. But Rin never give up on meeting new friends, but always ended up with failure. People still afraid with Rin as his strength grow with him from time to time.
"But it's good as you won't hurt your friends you made by using the internet," standing up, Yukio grabbed his brother's hand as he know what his brother afraid of, "And they won't scare about your strength, isn't it?"
"…Yea maybe you're right," Rin's brow still locked together as he's thinking whether is it a good way to make friend.
After a few second of considering, Rin turn his face towards his younger twin brother, still frowning "So will I really get friends by just doing like this? By put what I sing up to the internet?" Singing is always is second favourite thing than cooking, but he had never been thinking to make it publicly, so he was somewhat unsure if doing like this is a good choice.
"Yep, that's right! And you can always write about your feeling on it like a diary too so they can know you better!" grinning at his brother's decision, Yukio push his brother towards the chair he just sat not long before, "and actually I made this account for you! You can try it out by using it now then! But first let us check out the replies!"
"Oh okay… So these are the reply…" Rin tried focusing his sight to the glowing screen, to the brand new world of his, led by his younger twin brother. Glancing through the comments like 'Whoa you covered this song amazingly well!', 'Oh I wonder if your face is just wonderful as your voice?', 'Oh I really liked your cover of this song! It suits you so much!' had made Rin flush and he started to hum with a light and warming grin on his face.
"Oh wow!" And his eye spotted an ID while he was replying those comments he had by his brother's help, "He looks cool!" Yukio followed where his elder brother had pointed. The owner of the ID seems to have a cool look. With the obviously dyed golden stroke on the middle of the brunet, and had some ear-pierce that suits his look a lot.
"Suguro… Ryuuji…" Rin read the ID name carefully, with his eye slightly narrowed, "Wow! He had himself a cool name too!" Frowning again, Rin mumbled a bit to himself. And Rin started to click on the name of the ID, and the page jumped into the ID owner's personal page.
Surfing through Ryuuji's page, Rin found that his page was filled of videos that are recorded with the owner's solo performance of electric guitar and covered song by himself. Rin found Ryuuji's voice is magnificent enough to pull his attention to the songs.
"Wow he's absolutely cool Inside out!" Rin was totally amazed by this guy called Ryuuji, which is too cool for him, "He can sing well too! And I liked his style of singing too!"
"So probably he'll be the first friend to Nii-san, I see," placing his forefinger on his jaw, "Perhaps he'll like to be your friend too? Won't you like to try it out, Nii-san?"
"Oh okay!" Rin look at his younger brother with a slightest worry flash over his eye, "but what should I do to greet to a person? Since you blend well in you school life, I think you'll probably know a bit about it?"
"Hmm…" Yukio furrowed a bit from his twin brother's question, "I'm not quite sure about it too…" Actually Yukio didn't blend too much in the school despite he's better than Rin that he doesn't have the strength and the temper as his elder brother, but he had being a bookworm since he's in his school life, and he didn't actually tries to blend in with his classmates, mostly hiding himself in the library, and sink himself into kinds of study.
"Hmm… maybe you can just tell him straight what you want? That wanted to make friend with him? " Yukio finally give out a suggestion with a grin, "and this style of greeting sure suits you a lot!"
"Hey!" Rin protested angrily, huffing, "I just wanted make a friend, but they always run away from me! Don't make fun of me okay!"
"Okay, okay, just relax, Nii-san," Yukio give his brother a sheepish grin, "maybe just ask him 'would you be my friend?' I think it would help a little?"
"Hmm…" Thinking with his empty mind is hard enough to let Rin himself fell in headache, "Maybe I'll try to sort it by myself…? Just borrow your laptop for a while, okay?"
"Okay, just don't forget to return me the laptop before dinner!" Grinning, Yukio give his brother a gentle push, "So I'll be going down to help father to do something, 'll be back!" After giving Rin permission to have his laptop for a while, Yukio starts to walk downstairs to seek for their foster father, leaving his twin brother alone in the now empty room.
Ten minutes pass by, Rin still frowning, thinking the most suitable words to greet to the cool-looking guy to him, as he really wanted to be friend with someone, especially with someone cool. He really never had been with a friend relationship with anyone, so this lets him feel anxious.
"Hmm… Argh!" Having enough headaches within him, Rin let out a deep growl. It is really hard to get a friend. In a moment Rin think about giving up with this, but he was longing to have a friend, like everyone does. "What should I say…?" Asking himself question and his memory starts to sway as he catches a glimpse of what his foster father had told him in the past…
"Well, you'll have to be really honest to people if you want to make friend with someone, my boy."
"Be honest…" Rin mumbled to himself, bracing his elbows on the desk, with chin above his palms as he remembered what his foster father said to him when he asked him that how to make friends with other people. With a determined look, Rin started to type in the words to the guy named Ryuuji on the message box:
Hello, and thanks for liking what have I sang! To be honest I really never expect that my voice will be on the internet! Actually it's my brother who uploaded what I sing along with to here! Actually I did hope to have a friend to be with, but sadly I don't have the opportunity to have it… But can you be my friend? You looked so cool and your music's cool too! I like your style of singing! And the way you performed your guitar skill! I really hope that I can be your friend! And nice to meet you! And sorry if what I said had bothered you…
Sincerely,
Rin Okumura
Rin don't really know what's a message box is about, so he decided to end it like writing a letter. Maybe it's just like writing a letter, that's what in Rin's thought. After reassuring everything is okay, Rin pressed the "Send" button at the bottom right corner of the message box. And Rin turn his gaze blank to the screen again for a few second. He decided to sing another song that he liked the most for this moment.
I wonder if this light inside my heart has been right here all along
And I've never noticed it at all
'Cause every time I stumble down
Or have to take the long way around
It shines on me forever more
The distant singing of the bells
If you listen close it tells
A lonely story
Once more, I'll push my fears away
All that I endure today will make me stronger
The mere repeating of reality alone
Aligns the stars and all the wishes they take on
At last I've found something to chase with all my might
I cannot fight or go against these feelings
No matter if one day I wake and blink away this world around me
And I'm lost in thoughts of what could be
I know that I will find my way
'Cause now I have this light within me
It shines on me forever more
Every night following that dream
Where I threw away that old and silly ribbon
Lights have adorned the city streets
And I've been without one fret or worry within
I need a sanctuary that will keep me safe
As if protected like an angel in heaven
If I cannot have wings I'd like someone to trust
I know it must be wonderful like magic
If I could choose I'd stay like this forever while this world around me
Fills with colours I have never seen
I know I wouldn't hesitate
'Cause now the colours of each moment
Will change and change forever more
Answers we cannot find
No matter if they're not kind
We'll find it even blind
That is true in my mind
I'm believing till the end
That we are similar, my friend
One day I'll shine like this Dream World
If you just take a moment to blink all those tears away from your eyes
And you manage to conceal your cries
You'll never fear again because
The future you yearned for in heartache
Will shine on you forevermore
Without a limit
No matter if one day I wake and blink away this world around me
And I'm lost in thoughts of what could be
I know that I will find my way
'Cause now I have this light within me
It shines on me forevermore
And shines and shines forevermore
For you and me, eternally
