Secrets...We all have at least one. And according to the infamous, Izaya Orihara, every last human being on this Earth lies or hides things. Things they wouldn't even tell their best friend. Masaomi Kida was no exception to that statement.
Masaomi was indeed guilty of hiding his "yellow scarves gang" secret from his only best friend, Mikado Ryugamine. It wasn't because Mikado wasn't trustworthy. In fact, Masaomi trusts Mikado more than anyone else he knows, even more than he trusts Saki.
But, as much as Masaomi trusts Mikado, he refrained himself from revealing anything about his dark past, and involvment with the yellow scarves. Masaomi didn't want to endanger Mikado in any way. He wanted to protect Mikado from anything negative in this town, keeping his naive and innocent self alive. Even if it meant keeping a secret from him that was eating away at Masaomi.
He wanted to keep seeing Mikado's bright smile that seemed to comfort Masaomi's mind, if even for an instant. As long as Mikado was still Mikado, he was satisfied and willing to bare through his inner turmoil.
Of coarse secrets always find a way to unfold themselves no matter how hard you try. Masaomi learned that the hard way. He watched helplessly as his best friend stares in utter shock at his beaten and bloodied form. Revealing the very secret that Masaomi tried so hard to protect Mikado from.
Feeling anger and guilt as he looked at Mikado's face. His emotions, along with the massive trama to his head, made his vision become blurry and the room kept spinning. He felt his body become heavy as it collided with the ground. His body refused to move until a thin pair of arms lifted his upper body to face the owner of those arms.
Before Masaomi passed out, he and Mikado made a promise to never hide secrets from eachother ever again. That was a promise Masaomi intended to keep. He WANTED to tell Mikado everything.
But, what if Masaomi kept a secret in order to protect himself, from feeling the pain of having the closest person to him, look at him with an expression of pure dissapointment...Is that wrong of him?
Masaomi's eyes flicked open, but quickly squinted when his eyes came in contact with the small trace of sunlight that was seeping through the blinds of his apartment. He groaned for a second as he rubbed his eyes. Slowly sitting up from his bed, he recalled the dream he just had. A memory in fact, one that happened not too long ago. He glared down at his arms that were resting on his lap. It wasn't exactly the best time to remember that event.
"Not exactly the best way to start a new day..." Masaomi mumbled as he slowly turned his eyes towards his electric clock. He stared at it until he finally processed that it was 7:00am.
He let out a yelp, jumping out of his bed and ran to his closet. Pulling his usual winter uniform off it's hanger, Masaomi stipped from his PJ's and quickly slipped on his uniform.
"Dammit! I'm gonna be late!" Masaomi yelled as he went from one chore to another.
He ran to the bathroom to fix his messy, dirty blonde hair the best he could. He had to keep up a reputation for the ladies of coarse! He ran to the kitchen to grab a piece of regular, non-toasted bread and shoved it in his mouth as he ran out the door.
He yelled out a farewell to his empty building as he slammed the door and raced his way down the street. Hoping he wouldn't be too late for school.
Mikado let out a big yawn as he and Anri Sonohara walked towards the entrance of their school. The day started off very quiet and akward for the two, since Masaomi wasn't with them. Mikado let out a sigh.
"W-Wonder why Masaomi isn't here." Mikado stuttered, breaking the akward silence between him and Anri. He raised his right hand to his head, scratching the back of it.
"He must have woke up late or something, t-typical Masaomi." He let out a small chuckle. Anri turned to him and gave a little smile and a giggle, but didn't say anything. They both turned their heads away from eachother as another akward silence fell apon them.
Fortunently, the silence was broken by a loud, unmistakenable voice calling their names. They turned and saw their blond haired friend running towards them.
"Mikado! Anri! Wait up!" Masaomi ran up to the pair. Giving them a quick greeting before he stopped to catch his breath. his un-brushed hair was messy and his uniform jacket was slumped off his shoulders. Speaking of which, Mikado noticed that Masaomi was wearing his winter uniform in the spring.
"Hey Masaomi." Mikado tried to get his attention. "Why are you wearing your winter uniform instead of your spring one?" Masaomi looked down at his arms and gave a nervous laugh.
"O-Oops! Looks like I was in such a hurry that I accidently put on the wrong uniform." Mikado looked at Masaomi curiously.
"Oh yeah? And what made you in such a hurry Masaomi?" Mikado playfully pryed at his best friend. Masaomi playfully glared back and mumbled his excuse.
"Because, my damn alarm clock didn't go off." Anri and Mikado laughed a little at his response. Mocking his bad luck. Masaomi huffed and made a pouting face.
"Hey, at least I got here on time! I run at lightning speed all the way here and this is the greeting i get from my best friend and my erotic fan girl? How rude!" As if right on cue, the first bell rang loud throughout the school. The trio looked around and noticed everyone had gone inside and headed off to their classes. Masaomi grinned and sprinted to the building, leaving his two friends to catch up.
"See ya, suckers!" Masaomi yelled over his shoulder to his two friends who began running after him, following him into the building and to their class. Masaomi smiled at the fact that unlike last year, him and Mikado were in the same class this year. They even sat next to eachother, how cool is that?
The best friends took a seat next to eachother, barely making it on time. Masaomi smiled knowing him and Mikado would be spending so much time together. But his smile faded when he thought about his big secret. Masaomi didn't know how much longer he could keep his secret from Mikado.
Eventually the secret will slip. What will happen then? What will Mikado think oh him? Would it affect their friendship? Masaomi doesn't want to have to experience the pain of losing his best friend. For that reason, he plans to keep his secret for as long as possible.
The last bell of the school day finally rang throughout the school. Pools of students filled the halls as they all began to leave the campus. Mikado, Masaomi and Anri stayed behind, waiting till most of the students left so they didn't get stuck in the crowd.
The school day went by pretty fast. Nothing special happened, but it wasn't a boring day. Just the usual. Passing notes around in class, Masaomi distracting Mikado from his school work, and having an active lunch together on the roof.
Another typical day ending for the trio, but thats the way Masaomi liked it. He didn't want anything to change. He had enough of his crazy past life, all he wanted was to live his days with his best friends, especially with Mikado.
The three began walking away from the campus. Anri split from the two boys, claiming she has something to do before she heads home. The boys smile at her and wave goodbye before they head off to their own homes.
The scene was the same for these two. Masaomi chatting away about who knows what, with Mikado smiling and chuckling at Masaomi's strange conversations. Masaomi always found joy in making his best friend smile or laugh, it always let him forget his past and secret, if even for a little while.
But Masaomi had to wonder if Mikado even liked these repeatative events. Masaomi learned why Mikado made the Dollars and moved to Ikebukuro, to add excitment to his life. He wondered if Mikado ever got bored of even talking to him.
Depressed by this thought, Masaomi thrived off making sure Mikado didn't become tired of his new found life in Ikebukuro, or with him.
"Masaomi? Are you okay?" Mikado's voise broke away Masaomi's thoughts. He looked at Mikado with a confused look.
"You looked like you were deep in thought, that isn't like you." Mikado pointed out with a hint of worry on his own face. Masaomi smiled, flattered by his best friends worry towards his well being. He let out a chuckle and wrapped one arm around Mikado's shoulder.
"Oh, Mikado~ Are you insulting me? A handsome guy like myself also has brains you know!" Masaomi joked. Mikado laughted a bit and turned his head to look at Masaomi.
"Well, whatever makes you feel better, Masaomi." Mikado mumbled with a smile. Recieving a small pout from Masaomi.
"That was mean Mikkaaadddoooo~!" Elongating his name as if he were a small child. They both laughed. Masaomi loved hearing his friend laugh, It made him feel better. They continued talking until they came to a wide fork in the road. Masaomi frowned slightly.
"Looks like this is where we split up." Mikado pointed out, his mood not seeming to change. But Masaomi seemed a little more down after Mikado's comment.
"Yeah, I guess so." That was all Masaomi managed to say in a calm tone. Masaomi hated splitting from Mikado, especially here. It was always too dangerous for him. His neighborhood didn't exactly have many people around there, plus it was an extremely getto-looking place and was a closed off area from other neighborhoods.
Usually Masaomi would escort Mikado down that creepy neighborhood, but Mikado said he was going to do some shopping before he heads home. Masaomi couldn't help but wonder if Mikado moved to this creepy area on purpose, on an attempt to make things 'interesting' for him. Masaomi quickly shook that accusation from his mind, though.
They both waved and said their goodbyes for the day and walked their seperate ways down the fork. The rest of the way home for Masaomi was uneventful and quiet.
Making it to his house with no issues, Masaomi stepped inside his house and dropped his school bag near the door. Not wanting to do homework at the moment, he decided to make himself a meal. And by meal he meant making himself some instant noodles. Masaomi wasn't exactly the best at cooking, plus he was too lazy to make anything special. Instant noodles worked for him.
After waiting 3 minutes for the water to cool down, Masaomi began stuffing his mouth with noodles. It only took a few minutes before he had scarfed it all down. He looked at his digital clock and saw it was almost 9pm.
Having nothing better to do, Masaomi decided to send Mikado a lil text. He flipped out his phone and pushed a few of the buttons, forming a sentence.
'Hey Mi-ka-do~! What's up?' He hovered his finger over to the send button and quickly pressed it, waiting a few seconds until it sent. When the message sucessfully sent he closed his phone and waited for a text back.
After about 10 minutes of waiting, Masaomi was growing tired. No text had been sent back, so he figured Mikado was doing some last minute homework after getting home from the market. Masaomi grabbed his cell again and typed another message.
'Is Mikado doing last minute homework? ;) I decided not to do it cuz i feel my sleep is more important! I need to keep up my good looks after all, and sleep is a nessesity for that! ;) Gnight my dear Mikadooooooo-chan. 3'
Masaomi sent the message, let out a big yawn and slipped into his bed after he turned off the lights. He was rather exhausted and fell asleep rather quickly. He was looking forward to another good day tomorrow, spending it with his dear best friend. Hopeing no one would ruin that for him...
