Hi people of the Legal Drug section of xD. This is my first fanfic on this manga, so I will give it my best.
Disclaimer: Legal Drug is owned by CLAMP or more specifically Tsubaki Nekoi.
Kakei woke up in a cold sweat. He breathed in deeply and looked over at the empty spot in the bed next to him. Saiga had gone on another search. Fumbling around in the dark he searched for the light on the night stand. Flipping the switch he reached for the pad and pencil he had always kept next to him. He flipped through the pages past his other visions he had written down of invisible firefly's and flower vases that came to life and turned to a blank page. Closing his eyes he placed the writing tool to the paper and recalled his precognition.
He waited for the memory to come back up and waited and waited but couldn't remember the dream. Opening his eyes he looked at the pad. Tears threatened his eyes and he through the pad at the wall, it was the 4th time that week. Another dream another failure, this always happened when the future had to do with Tsukiko and Kudo-kun. They were just too powerful for him and it made him upset. But he never had this many dreams he couldn't remember before. Sometimes he just wishes that Saiga would take more breaks and be with him at night. He pulled his legs up to his chest and wrapped his arms around them. The night sounds of cars and people walking outside his window always calmed him, and of course the sounds upstairs always brought him happiness. Listening he could hear footsteps stomping around as Kudo-Kun and Rikuo yelled loudly and got ready for bed. He smiled lightly,
"Well." He said to himself. "It looks like they won't have a job to do tomorrow. That should at least make them happy." And he settled back into bed for another dreamless sleep.
*the next day in the drug store*
The next day was just like any other day. The three men who worked at the 'Legal Drug' store woke up and got ready for customers. Kakei was already at the cash register before the opening hour and heard the two teenage boys coming down the stairs.
"Next time stay on your side of the room." Rikuo shot at Kazahaya.
"Well maybe if you didn't kick my stuff onto your side I would have too." Kazahaya yelled back.
"Then pick up after yourself and I won't have to kick your stuff in the first place." The two growled at each other and sparks flew from their eyes.
"Now now boys there are no reason to argue." Kakei interjected. "Rikuo why don't you start getting stock from the back and Kudo-kun you can start shelving the boxes out here."
"Hai." The two boys called out and began their daily routine. Kakei opened the store and customers began flocking in to the drug store. Kakei had just finished ringing up a woman and looked up to the next customer.
"How may I help you…"He felt his chin being pulled up before his lips were incased by another's. He moaned into the other man's mouth and smiled. His mouth was released and the pale man looked up. Saiga smirked,
"And how are you this fine morning have any nice dreams?"
"I'm fine and no I didn't, at least I don't think I did. How did your end go?"
"Same thing as always, no leads. This is really starting to get annoying." Saiga ran his hand through his black hair. His sunglasses gleamed in the sunlight from the window keeping his eyes from being seen, but Kakei knew what they probably looked liked…tired.
"Why don't you get some sleep in my office?"
"Yeah you don't have to tell me twice." Saiga began his familiar walk down the aisle to the back room. He saw Kazahaya standing in front of the canned food shelves staring at the tinned peas with another can in his hands.
"Hey kid how's it hanging?" Saiga waved at the teenager as he walked by. Instead of the usual wave hi back the teen just stood there at the shelves. His eyes glazed over and he made no effort of movement.
"Hey kid you alright." Saiga placed his hand on Kazahaya's shoulder and lightly shook him. The dirty blond haired teen blinked and his eyes refocused. He looked up at the sunglasses and smiled.
"Ah konichiwa Saiga-san, welcome back."
"You OK kid…you seemed kind of out of it?" Kazahaya looked at Saiga in confusion.
"No I'm fine." Rikuo came from behind Kazahaya holding a big box.
"Kazahaya fine, he's always out of it." The older teen smiled at the mad reaction he got from his partner.
"I wasn't out of it I'm fine you…you…Teme!" Kazahaya slammed the canned peas on the counter and stormed off. Rikuo sneered at his new victory and walked off. Saiga laughed uneasily and watched the younger teen walk off.
*The office*
Saiga was lying on the couch when Kakei walked in. The thinner man plopped himself on the chair behind his desk and rested his head on his hands.
"You OK Babe." Saiga asked sitting up.
"Just these stupid precognitions. There really starting to bother me."
"Yeah well if you want to know something that's bothersome… Kazahaya seems to be acting a bit off. Have you gotten anything about him?"
"No…It's always touch and go when it comes to Kudo-kun. When it's just a simple mission that has to do with all of us I can see him as clear as day…but When comes to his own personal future. Well It's either fuzzy or I just can't remember it."
"Well we've done well so far we just have to wait and see." Saiga walked up to the owner of the drug store and rubbed his shoulders.
"Mmm, thanks…So how's your search going?"
"Same as always. I see her but when I get close she's gone like that."Saiga snapped his fingers to emphasize his point. You don't think the Tsukiko and the kid's future are intertwined somehow and that's why we can't seem to figure them out?"
"I don't know…But like I've said before, I opened this store for that boy and even if I don't know the reason why yet I will try my best to help him and to those he holds dear." The two lovers stayed there silently. Saiga pulled back and walked over to the couch.
"Maybe you should ask you- know- who for a certain wish." (1) Kakei glared at the older man and smacked his head on the desk.
"I would but I don't have anything to offer her…and where running out of time I can feel it." Saiga groaned and lay back down.
"Well then I guess when the time does come…we're on our own."
(1)If you know who I'm talking about good for you, you deserve a cookie and are a true CLAMP fan. If not he means Yuko in xxxHolic. But don't worry it's just a reference and this story will NOT be a cross over.
So this is my story so far. Hope you like and if you're utterly confused I promise to clear things up and if you do like it make sure to try out my other stories.
So review kindly Onegai
