Those strong hands pinch the small body roughly to the wall and twisted his victim hand, the young blonde hissed at his attacker, he tried to move his hand and flew punch to the tall guy in front of him, but no good, his attacker is too strong, plus he got company behind him.

"What's wrong blonde? you tried to punch me, eh?", the attacker, namely Kazuki, tall guy, with dark-brown hair and pair of stern eyes stared at the smaller-guy with a hateful gaze.
He slowly gives a click sign with his fingers and in seconds, the three big guys behind him already set their place in front of the blonde, beat him, leaving a bloody heap on the floor.

As the smaller guy didn't make a sign to move anymore, the three back off and followed their leader out of this dim room, they were sure no one will able to find this place, its perfectly hidden behind their school-yard and no one ever used it for years. He left the fragile guy and laughed.

Yumehito breathed slowly, his head ached, a dull throb that wouldn't go away. He gritted his teeth as his body reminded him that it wasn't only his head that was hurting. As he turned to try to get in a more comfortable position, he accidentally shifted his head onto a thin, deep cut on the arm he was resting on. The pain was sharp. As he moved the drying blood away from the wound he hissed as it started to sting.

'Damnit.. he really make me worse this time..', he thought, touching his dry lips and spitted some blood from his mouth. He leaned over the wall and inhaled deeply, so it's not only his body ached, that Kazuki guy also made his teeth broken.

It's not his first time getting bullied like this …and he wondered why he didn't even try to defend himself.. not in fight-way, but tell his teachers or parents ?

He make a bitter laughed, he probably died even before he told anyone else.

Loud foot steps echoing in Yume's ears, followed by a sudden impact sound from the door, someone tried to open the door with pressure. Then, the lights came on, blindingly bright. He squeezed his eyes shut.

"God. Yume!!"

He knew the voice. He tried to open his eyes slowly, at first he couldn't see anything but his vision cleared and he can see this person standing before him.
"Yuuya-kun.."

Yuuya kneeled in front of him and checked if his childhood friend alright. He surveyed his friend's beaten face with a worried look.

"Are you okay?"

Yumehito smiled weakly, "How can you say I'm okay with this state?".

He slowly gripped Yuuya's shoulder as his friend's tried to help him stand up. He couldn't walk like usual, he was sure he sprained some ankles. Yuuya brought him outside the room while hold his friends beside him, he reached a park-bench nearby and make Yume rested there.
He got a transparent bottle and a handkerchief out of his uniform's pocket.

"Give me your hand Yume, it'll hurt a bit..", Yume nearly jumped when Yuuya placed his handkerchief into Yume's wound & cleaned his dried blood.

"You know Yume….", Yuuya spoke after cleaned his best friend's wound. Stared at him, "I think you should stop this.."

"Stop what?!", Yumehito snapped, a bit angry.

It's been hundreds time Yuuya giving him an advice with EXACTLY same words. He repeated it like a broken record. Yuuya himself take his breath, he knew what his childhood friend is going to say.
He sat next to the blonde.

"I know you didn't started anything.. but I'm worried..", He mused. gazing to the blue sky, which really clear today. And he hated it. He hated the color because it tells lies,. The color is so contrast comparing to what happen in the real world.

"Dyed your hair into black again & being normal.. is it so hard?" , Yuuya sighed.

Yume keep silent. Dyed his hair into black means he ADMITTED he is wrong in front of Kazuki, and he definitely getting more bullied again.
But, He knew that this is too much.. They are going to far..

Come on!? Getting bullied because of his hair color ?! He wanted to laugh; nor his parents or his teacher didn't comment about this. They completely ignored it like a wind.. but why it has to be THOSE people ?!

"I told you THOUSANDS times Yuuya..", Yumehito finally speak. "I won't give up my dream.. I love visual-kei and I want to be part of it. Please understand.."

"I understand..", he nodded. "But they.."

"They DON'T. I know"
He raised his voice a bit. Giving a sign to Yuuya not to mention this thing again.

Maybe he is egoist. Not only Yuuya who he made worried but also his other two best friends, Ryuuji and Tatsuhi.. even more concerned than Yuuya does.. almost over too protective.. but they didn't know how powerful Kazuki is; so Yumehito didn't want to involved his friends..

He just hoped he will have enough time. At least one year again, until Kazuki and his bastards graduate…

And maybe. Maybe. He is free that time.
He can dive into the world he fond of since he twelve years old. Composed music which makes everyone sank into his melody. He knew there are many people respect this weird music—that what other 'normal' people say—so he never wants to give up.
And he can not wait.

He made a BIG mistake, that's what Yuuya.co think about.
If only that crazy idea popped in Yume's mind in a different time and different place, maybe his friend will stuck in library right now, being a geek.

That's what Yuuya said.

But for Yume, nothing is wrong.
Whatever it is.


His name is Kenzo.

Tall guy, around 180cm, black hair color with dark brown shades on the side; and a pair of black eyes that always aware with anything; right now walking slowly in this small town.
He took off a pack of cigarette from his jeans pocket, and sucked it slowly.

It's almost 2 years he left this town. A town which left too many bad memories rather than good. Nothing drastic changed here, really different than Tokyo, place where he's living now.
He blew smoke from his cigarette; intend to go back to his old shoddy apartment for next few months.

His life in Tokyo nowadays didn't turn out well. Two years ago, after 'that incident' he fled to Tokyo and worked randomly, occasionally he used his drumming skill for helping his friends as a support drummer.
He is popular, people always searching for him. Many people wanted him to be his/her band official drummer. And after few considerations he finally agreed and became an official a v-kei band's drummer.
But nowadays his life was really unexpected.

The manager of the band fled, brought all of their money from their hard work; and not long after it, the band disbanded.
Kenzo; who up till now focused on his band felt betrayed.
His relationship between other members also getting worse. Not only that thing, but also some problems which unpredictable accrued made Kenzo fed-up.

So then he resolved to go back here, to Yokkaichi. A small town in Mie prefecture; which he spent almost of his teenage life. There is a time when people have to rest from their usual life, and maybe he can live calmly here.

Kenzo threw his cigarette to the road and turned to the direction of his old apartment.

"KENZO-SENPAI !"

He turned his head. There's a high school boy, almost as tall as him, with a dark-brown hair. He wore the same uniform which Kenzo used to wear in high school.

"You're Kenzo-senpai right?"

Kenzo nodded, confused. He didn't know who is this guy.. but why he knew his name ?

The high school boy seems read Kenzo's confusing look, so he stepped forward to Kenzo and bows politely. "My name is Kazuki. I'm still junior when you're the leader of the gang"

Gang?
Oh, that time.

Actually this gang was the real reason he moved to Tokyo. After 'that incident' to be exact.

As a leader, Kenzo REALLY has a big role in a gang which very troublesome. This gang has a lot of follower, everyone afraid of them and no one even dared to against them. Even the teachers pretend not to know about this gang, and regarded it like a wind.

That is what you called a troublesome gang. They loved to do a troublesome thing. One of their favorites is bullied people and quarreled with other school's gang.

One time, they fought with other gang, but this time was different. It was really serious. There's a boy (who is a member of other's school gang) seriously injured, he was in comma; and after few months in ICU, he died.

Of course as leader, it was Kenzo who must take all the responsibility. Because of it he was expelled.
Whereas it's only few weeks before he's graduate. But school still didn't care. Not long after he expelled, he fled to Tokyo.

Hurt ? Of course.
Actually his achievement wasn't bad. In fact his marks were higher than other students. So the teachers couldn't protest either..

But this concerned with other people death.

And how hate Kenzo with his life; he put DEATH in his number one hate list. Or LOST to be exact.
Although he didn't know who the guy is, he perfectly knew how it felt to be one of those people who missed him… and in the rest of his life he didn't want to meet this thing again. Ever.
But life isn't always in top position, he met this damn thing again after he just felt how great his life in Tokyo.

Kenzo and Kazuki walked along the small street. Kazuki beside him is really talkative.
He told him everryyyyythiing connected to the gang.
About the current gang, how he became the leader -although there's only few follower now, and a person who they bullied.

"….so there's this blonde guy…… really thin and fragile so we love to beat him up….."

Kenzo put a small smile and ignored him. He wants to be alone right now. Kazuki already reminded him with his dark-past.
He needed to rest or maybe practicing drum…. he snapped to reality.
Well, it is not a bad idea!

"Maaa….!!", Kenzo finally spoke, a bit louder. Kazuki stopped talking and stared at him.

"Do you know a studio nearby?"

"Ah.. Just turned right in that convenience store..", Kazuki pointed him the store. "And in that road there's a CD store. The studio is right beside it"

Kenzo smiled brightly. He tapped Kazuki's shoulder and ran off after said 'thanks' to him. Leaving Kazuki alone with a confusing look.

He followed the direction and found the studio in a few minutes.. He talked to the studio keeper.

"You can use number 3, the guy there should've finished minutes ago. Just… make him out.",

Kenzo nodded and walk straight to the studio as the keeper showed him the way.
He then heard this sound, a very beautiful sound, came from the number 3 studio. It's pretty loud but really neat.

'That's such a great compose', he thought, and began humming. His hand moved without his realization, like when he is in drumming. His mind completely lost by this tunes, he really wanted to add some rhythms in this part or there.

Kenzo already hears many songs, even when he's in the visual kei band, he never found a song as unique as this, a mix from visual-kei loud sound and happy-melodic tunes; you can't describe it with words really..

.. But stupid Kenzo, he shouldn't be that excited.. As he stepped forward to hear more of the sounds, he accidentally fell forward and the door suddenly flying open.

The music stopped. Also the guy who played the guitar turned his head to Kenzo's direction. He suddenly noticed there's already person who wanted to use this room, so he began to put off his guitar and packing his things to his school bag with hurry.

Kenzo, still; didn't move. His eyes stared widely, blinking. He can't believe it's only a high school guy who played such an amazing compose.
A slim, tender guy with a pretty face, He wore the same uniform like Kazuki does, his white skin looks pale but suits perfectly with his blonde hair, which a bit unusual for high-school boy.
Eh, Wait ?! Did Kazuki say something about blonde guy in his school earlier?
Maa.. Kenzo can think about that later, He really needs to talk to him now.

"I'm sorry.. You can use the room now.", Yumehito walked to Kenzo hurriedly, he looked at Kenzo with demanded look to move away from the door.

Kenzo didn't answer. He stares back to the blonde-guy and keep blocking his way.

Yumehito is a bit pissed off, he talked again. "…Sorry, I'm in hurry. If you excuse me…"

"No, wait!", Kenzo said loudly when Yume successfully get out from the studio room. Yumehito stared at him, demanding for an answer.

"I…. well. I want to hear more of that song you played…", Okay. He sounds really stupid right now, especially when the smaller guy looked at him with a 'huh?' look.

Kenzo breathed, " I.. I am a drummer. I was thinking it will be great if I added some rhythm to that song. Well, if you don't mind…"

Yume's expression didn't change. Kenzo cursed himself silently; he didn't know why he will do something that very not-Kenzo like. Usually, he will keep calm and looked cool, but that song somehow moved his heart. It's too hard too ignore.

"So…?", Kenzo talked first.

Yumehito stay silent, but then he nodded. "Okay.."

Yume's answer made Kenzo nearly jumped in happiness and smiled brightly. He straightly set off to the drum set and pulled his drum sticks off from his bag. He put his feet to the bass pedal, and playing some random notes.
So as Yumehito, he positioned himself to the guitar again and set the amplifier.

From the back of the drum set he can see him perfectly.
He never knows this guy, it's only 3 minutes he just saw him, but he felt like… wants to do anything.
..To meet him again, in another time or another place.

"Can we start now?"

Yumehito's voice snapped him back to reality. The drummer nodded and the blonde began to play his guitar. He started with slow melodic tunes, Kenzo tried to match his pace to Yume's, after he figured what's the song sounds like, he began to play his drum.

It is an amazing duet indeed; both of them enjoyed their time together, and can collaborate naturally. Yumehito looked at the drummer slightly, 'even Yuuya-kun can't play as neat as him', he thought.
This is the first time he felt this song is perfect. From the first time he composed this song, he never satisfied about it, but its different now. This tall guy, who he never knew, can match with him perfectly.
He knew the drummer felt the same too. He smiled at him.

Kenzo froze momentarily, unsure of how to react to the smiley face, he felt himself blush slightly under his gaze. But then he smiled back to the high-school boy.

He's sure he will be meeting him again.

"Here you go" , Kenzo gives the smaller guy a can of coke.

"Thank you", the blonde reached the coke and drink it slowly.

Time's flew too fast, its been 2 hours since they left the studio; jamming, talking, laughing.. Until Kenzo decided to accompany the high-school boy to home because it's already night. Kenzo walked beside him and lit his cigarette.

" You know…", Yumehito started to break the silence. His face slightly flushed,
"today might be the best day I've ever had in my life.." , He smiled. "Actually you're the first person who heard the song, and I never thought anyone will like it. The song now sounds much better because of your rhythm, Thank you so much.."

Kenzo almost cough by the sudden words, he never thought anyone will like the song?, silly, this guy didn't even know how great his ability is!

"No, really.", he smiled. "It's a great song. I'm sure everyone likes it too. And..", He breathed out deeply, a line of grey smoke passing through his lips and cigarette.
"I also really enjoyed.. playing with you."

Yumehito felt his cheek slightly blushed. They keep silent in a few minutes. Enjoying each other's presence.
The winds somehow blow faster, make both of them shivers, and Kenzo felt a raindrop fell.

"It looks like going to rain…", he said. Stretching out his hand and see the sky.

And his words proven, in seconds rain fell down heavily. Kenzo cursed under his breath and took the smaller guy hand beside him; running through the heavy rain.
They found a bus shelter nearby and decided to wait there until rain is getting slower.

Their hair dumped, their clothes soaked; well, today didn't run smoothly as he thought before. He looked at the blonde guy beside him.
Yumehito checked his school bag with a worried look, hoping his books are safe and didn't get soaked. Noticed someone looked at him, he snapped,

"What!?"

Kenzo laughed. "Are you sure today's still your best day? Raining like this ?"

"Well.. not really…", he said calmly. "But its pretty cold, ne…" ,Shivering, Yumehito had to bite his lip to stop his teeth from chattering.

But suddenly, warmth spread through him; his eyes searching for the source of the new-found heat. His black pools landed on a strong shoulder next to him, very close. Following it, his eyes finally landed on its owner, whose cheeks were slightly flushed. Whether from embarrassment or the cool air, Yumehito wasn't sure.

Feeling the other's gaze on him, Kenzo turned his face away from the blonde, his blush deepening as he mumbled out:"Well…", he coughed, composing himself. "Your mom probably will angry with me if this unknown guy make her child sick…", He trailed off, looking anywhere but the blonde-guy.

Yumehito bursted out laughing, while Kenzo himself tried to looked calm and cool as always. He can't help it, this situation is too awkward!
"EHM!! Maaaa…", Kenzo speak louder this time, he is so embarrassed right now. He continues speaking when he met Yumehito's eyes.

"I just realized… we haven't introduce ourselves properly right ?"

Yumehito nodded. They keep doing things together since 2 hours ago, and both of them never ask who this new person name is. Well, when you're in 'same frequency', or can talked freely to him, name didn't look so important right ?

Kenzo held out his hand, smiling. "My name is Kenzo"

Yumehito replied the smile with a genuine smile he has. He greeted his new friend hand and holds it.

"Yumehito, or Yume for short. Nice to meet you Kenzo-kun.."

Both of them somehow didn't want to let go the hand they're holding in; and just couldn't wipe that silly smile off their face as Kenzo and Yumehito waiting for the rain to stop, together. Staying close to each other for warmth.
It seems like eternity, but no one protested.

Their fingertips keep connecting at each other.

Rain forgotten..

Yumehito took his words back, today still his best day after all.

! End chapter 1 !
