Akashi woke up by someone gently tapping his shoulder. He decided not to yawn since there was someone besides him in the room. Slowly he opened his eyes, trying to get used to the very bright light inside. Why was it like that? Usually it would still be dark when he woke up. Anyways, he would wake up on his own. It was very unusual that a servant would wake him up.
"Akashi-sama, you have to wake up." A familiar voice whispered. A voice Akashi knew since he was little. Since the middle school.
"Don't be so polite. I told you several times already you don't have to call me 'sama'. It is distracting for me. Now, why are you whispering and what it the matter? I hope you didn't wake me up for no reason." He realized that it wasn't his bed that he was sitting on. It was the soft, white sofa in the living room. He looked at the clock and it was afternoon. He really fell asleep in the middle of the day.
The black haired servant sighed. He fixed Seijuro's hair and tie while he spoke. "Your father will come home from his work trip a little sooner then expected. To be a little more exact, he will be here within the next hour. You should get up. He will not approve it if you lay around during the day and do nothing." he smiled at the red haired slightly.
"Honestly, you should get rid of this obvious fake smile, Shuzo." He pushed his hands away a little, stood up and looked at himself in a huge mirror. His cheeks had more color than usual and he hoped that Shuzo didn't notice it.
Nijimura didn't intend to drop the smile on his lips. "I will clean up here. You should at least act like you are busy with something when our father comes in, Akashi-sama."
"Stop it.." Akashi just whispered and walked off. He left the older one behind, not intending to look back.
Nijimura kept his smile. He looked at Akashi as he walked away. The faked smile still on his lips for the case the red haired would turn around once more, but as he walked around a corner his smile dropped, leaving back a depressed face.
