Somethings Unneeded

Oneshot

Tyson had never seen Mizuhara Max, the great bouncing ball, King of Candy, so down and glum.

The poor, shocked blonde did not want to be offered any kind of comfort whatsoever. He had wanted to prove to the PPB that he wasn't the same kid that had joined the Bladebreakers two years back.

Now...just mere minutes ago, the crowds had boo-ed them for being merciless to the Barthez Battalion in the last match. It wasn't fair.

"Max?"

The Jap bluenette didn't even bother to knock. He came in quite silently and draped a heavy arm on dejected shoulders.

"Oh Maxie..." Tyson began in a consoling manner, not really paying attention to the fact that his buddy had not acknowledged his presence in any way. "Know that I'll always be here for you bud! Don't give up!"

Max did not stir. His companion went on. "I hate seeing you sad. Whenever you're sad, I feel double your pain, y'know what I mean? I empathize with you! When you feel that pressure from the fans doing your noble team injustice, I feel even worse!"

Baby blue eyes swiveled in his direction. They were on the verge of brimming over with tears. "It's not fair Ty...it's all part of Barthez's corrupt, evil scheming—"

The arm around him tightened its grip. "That's why I'm telling you that I'll always stick by you Max! To remind you that not everyone's against you. You've got friends who see through you and know that you and your lot would never do bad things on purpose. Take Kai for example, I mean, he may be a jerk and all but he knows someone respectable when he sees one."

Max cracked a smile, but it easily withered as he thought about how ripped apart his team was. Optimism was just not enough.

Tyson knew the look well. "If you're having trouble with your team, mine is double. Always double, because we're the best of friends! We feel the intensity of each other's suffering!" He had a shaking hand balled up into a fist to emphasize his point.

"If you're feeling cute, then how much more would I feel?!"
