The time he…comforted me.
I was walking home alone today from school after I yelling at Usagi-san to stay home today to finish his manuscript which is already three days late. It went as it always does.
I yelled, he brushed my protests off and put in usual ones comments about how the manuscript can wait, and that he would pick me up anyways. But the only difference today was that I threatened to put green peppers in his dinner. I didn't even bother using the no sex threat because it wasn't working; that perverted rabbit always finds a way into my pants. Moreover, I also promised to call him when I got out, and that I would head straight to the condo, so he relented and stayed home to finish his work.
In hindsight I should have used that threat a long time ago for other things. I mean come on, my back still hurts from what that perverted rabbit did to me two nights ago. There's no stopping him once he's got that predatory look in his eyes.
Does beautiful purple eyes tha- - and why am I thinking of him all the time?
Heaving an internal sigh, I kept making my way home passing by stores and multiple people on the sidewalk. Then I turned a corner and continued thinking about Usagi-san for some reason when a loud sound made me snap my head up.
I look over and saw two cars which apparently crashed into each other right now. The street started to be filled with onlookers.
There were two men that went to one car to check the driver that was alone in his car and then there was another man that went to the other car that was involved to check in.
Some people started calling 9-11 while others just stared at the scene before them and made comments. Some even took pictures on their phones. Misaki frowned upon seeing such a thing in a situation like this.
'How can they be so inconsiderate as to take pictures in a time like this when those people can be seriously hurt or- ' He trained off thought got cut off as Misaki froze at the sight he was witnessing.
The back door to one of the cars opened and out came a young boy.
He couldn't have been more than eight. The boy with brown hair had a head injury that was bleeding deeply and he looked like he was going to pass out; a lady went up to him as did the man who was checking the front of his car earlier. The lady began talking to him but he wasn't responding. Misaki felt both pity and worry for him. Then a thought occurred to him.
Why hasn't the man from before pulled out his parent or parents that were still in the car? After contemplating this thought for a second he felt sick.
'Oh dear God no.'
"Where are my mom and dad?" The boy asked to no one in particular. Misaki froze with the fear he felt in his heart upon hearing that question come from the possibly now orphan boy. The man before him didn't answer him so the boy tore away from the ladies grip and went to the driver side, and looked through the window against the protest of the adults only to start screaming and crying two seconds later.
"DAD? MOM? NO, YOU CAN'T BE DEAD. MOM. WAKE UP. DAD." The boy yelled at the top of his lungs, and tried to open the door put the adults from before stopped him.
Misaki just stood there, petrified, staring at the scene that was unraveling before his eyes.
Soon the police and two ambulances arrive and took control of the situation. While Misaki just stared. He stared at the police pushing back the still growing crowed. He stared as the paramedics took a man out of his car and put him in the back of an ambulance.
He watched as the newly arrived ambulance pulled in and took the terrified and tearstained boy that was still calling out to his parents.
He stared as said parents were taken out if the severely damaged automobile. He stared at their bleeding and broken bodies. It was the only thing he could do.
He listened to the desperate cries of their son telling them to wake up. To open their eyes. Something they didn't do. Misaki wasn't sure if they would ever do that again seeing there was blood everywhere.
The parents were put in the back of the ambulances with the son accompanying the mother before driving off to the nearest hospital. The crowed started to disappear but Misaki stood stoke still for ten minutes after everyone was gone, his brain was still processing what he just saw.
'That boy, his reminds me of me when my parents…It's just like that except his got it worse. He was actually in the car with them when it happened. He could have actually seen his parents die right in front of his eyes…'
Coming out of it, he shook his head trying to clear it and decided to continue his way home before a certain author starts worrying over his tardiness. There's only 4 minutes till he is determined late since he is always home by this time.
He decided it was best to hurry because he knew his landlord would go out to look for him if he is not there in exactly that time frame. As Misaki walked to the condo he couldn't stop seeing the images of the crash, of the boy crying and yelling, of his parents bleeding out in front of him. He couldn't stop hearing the boys desperate and pleading cries.
He started feeling worse with every passing second. The sadness was taking over his entire being. The memories were coming back with vivid colors.
He walked into the building, got on the elevator, arrived at the condo's door; he opened it and walked in with his head low. Never fully realizing he made it all the way home, he's thoughts and concentration was still completely on the accident.
Usami Akihiko, famous author, toy lover, current landlord and lover was seating in the living room sofa staring at the clock a few seconds before Misaki entered. As soon as he heard footsteps he knew it was his beloved and that there was no need to go out in search of his now 1 minute late lover like he was planning on doing before the other stepped in.
He looked over ready to comment on his barely considered tardiness but the words froze in his mouth as soon as he saw the figure of the man he loves. His head hung low as he stood at the door way.
"Misaki?" Usagi called him, voice giving away the worry and fear that was enveloping him.
The boy didn't answer, didn't look up, didn't even as much as flinch. This scared the author even more and in a blink of an eye he was beside his love. He put both hands on the boy shoulders.
"Misaki, what's wrong? Did something happen?" He asked in a rare gentle voice he saved only for Misaki.
"Misaki, look at me." He commanded when the other didn't reply. His brown locks were hiding his emerald eyes the author loves so much. Misaki still hasn't looked at the taller man.
Usagi took a hand and placed it on Misaki's chin, forcing him to look up. The worry and fear escalated to new levels in a matter of seconds when he saw Misaki's beautiful green eyes filled with tears. His heart practically stopped beating at the sight of his love crying and it hurt that he didn't even know what caused him to cry in the first place, leaving him lost.
The tears started to fall down his face and Akihiko couldn't take the silence any longer. He pulled Misaki in for a hug which the other greatly appreciated and more than welcomed it. Misaki was clinging to Usagi's shirt as he started sobbing. Usagi just hugged him closer.
"Why are you crying? What happened?" He asked gently, desperately wanting to know what happened to Misaki that made him come home in tears. He just felt Misaki shake his head against his chest before burying his face in it again. Misaki continued to cry, ruining Usagi's expensive shirt in the process. Not that the owner cared either way.
Usagi walked them backwards a little bit and closed the door with a hand before lifting up Misaki and carrying him bridal style to the sofa. Misaki clung to his shirt, face buried in it the whole way. Usagi sat down on the couch and sat Misaki in his lap.
Misaki cried for a long time but eventually his sobbing died down to hiccups which eventually went completely quiet as he fell asleep. Usagi wasn't sure what he could say to him because he wasn't very good at things kinds of things so he opted to just be there, holding him and rubbing his back comfortingly, for now. He was planning on asking him about this when he woke up because he wasn't going to wake him up any time soon. He had cried his eyes out and he was probably exhausted so the talk could wait for a little while.
Usagi just sat there for a while with Misaki in his arms, just hearing the other breathe in his sleep. After a few more minutes he got up with the brunette still in his arms, and carried him to his room. He lifted up the covers and gently set his lover down on his bed before getting in himself. He covered them both with the blankets and hugged Misaki close and was pleasantly surprised to feel Misaki shift and snuggle into him in his sleep.
The author closed his eyes and let sleep overtake him. He woke up a few hours later and by now it was dark outside. His violet eyes moved to the boy in his arms when he felt him shift, staring to wake up.
Soon his eyes opened, exposing two vibrant green orbs looking up at Usagi. Usagi looked back at him with a soft gaze. At first Misaki looked disoriented, groggy and confused as to why they were in bed. He was also wondering about the look that Usagi was sending his way until it all came back to him. He felt tears starting to form again but he fought them off this time.
He looked away from the intense gaze of his lover and tried to blink back the tears.
"Hey." Usagi said softly before planting a kiss on his forehead.
"Hi." Misaki whispered back faintly.
"Do you feel better now?"
Misaki only nodded in response, still not making eye contact.
"Do you want to tell me what happened?" Usagi asked.
A shake of the head was his only answer.
"Misaki." Usagi whispered feeling a little hurt that he didn't want to talk to him about whatever it was that caused this.
"It's nothing." He said softly before burying his head in Usagi's shirt again to avoid eye contact.
"It's obviously not nothing. You came home crying. I really want to know." He added while lifting Misaki's head by his chin and rubbing his cheek smoothly with a thumb.
Misaki finally caved and made eye contact.
"On my way here I saw a… car crash." Misaki finished after a pause.
He heard Usagi take in a sharp breath, understanding immediately.
"I saw it all Usagi-san and everything was just awful and, and …." Misaki stopped talking as sobbed began to take over his body again.
"You don't have to continue." Usagi told him.
But the younger man didn't seem to hear him; too wrapped up in his memories.
"T-then a kid came out of one c-car and started screaming for his p-parents. But t-they didn't a-answer him, t-they just laid there, unmoving. A-and there was so much b-blood Usagi-san, so m-much b-blood everywhere. I-I don't t-think they'll make it. That b-boy just s-saw his p-parents d-die-" He cut himself off when his breathing accelerated to a point he couldn't speak anymore.
Sobs rocked his entire frame as Usagi hold him close rubbing circles on his back. Usagi closed his eyes; he now knew and understood why Misaki was like this. He lost his parents to a car crash at a young age and to this happen to another kid must be so hard.
"Misaki look at me." Usagi said.
He didn't move.
"Look at me." He said a little more forcibly without sounding too harsh.
Slowly the mop of brown locks looked up and he saw two tear filled green orbs staring back at him. Usagi took the others face in his hands.
"I can't begin to understand or pretend to imagine how hard and painful that must have been for you to see, but I need you to remember one thing." He said.
He continued as he saw those green eyes still set on me.
"That I won't leave you no matter the situation and that I love you. You can always come to me with anything and you don't need to hide yourself or feel like you can't talk to me about these kinds of things. Alright?" He said with determination and sincerity dripping off his words.
He wasn't sure of what to do but when he saw Misaki nod his head frankly and hug him hard, he knew he had said something right.
"Good, now go back to sleep." He added while petting Misaki's head as the other got comfortable and fell back to the dreamland in a matter of minutes.
The next dayMisaki woke up alone in bed so he decided to go look for the rabbit. He found him in the kitchen; at first he looked worried because a look at the clock told him he got up later than usual. Normally he would've made breakfast by now; the other reason is because Usagi with a stove in a kitchen alone isn't a safe place for anyone, including the stove.
When Usagi saw his expression he wanted to laugh.
"Relax, I ordered breakfast." Usagi said knowing his food isn't the best or edible for that matter.
Misaki heaved a sigh of relieve. Usagi walked over to Misaki and wrapped his arms around him. Then he leaned down and pecked his lips shortly and what's surprising is that Misaki let him. No fights, struggles nor complaints this time. What happened yesterday must have really hit him hard for him to not do anything to Usagi.
A shocked Usagi was just staring a Misaki who was blushing and staring at the others toned chest before wrapping his arms around him.
"Thank you." He mumbled.
"For what?"
"For yesterday." Misaki replied in a low voice now.
"No problem." Usagi then placed a kiss on his lover's forehead making him blush more.
They were interrupted as the doorbell rang. The food arrived and they sat like they usually did for every meal and ate they're breakfast. After they finished Misaki realized he was late for class and started panicking till Usagi told he wasn't going to school today. Misaki of course argued, getting his old spark back in the process, that he was going and tried to get upstairs to get ready but Usagi wouldn't have any of that and forbade it.
After a few more minutes of arguing Misaki gave up knowing he wouldn't win. The day passed by and in the afternoon Usagi decided to watch the news today so he turned on the TV and found the beginning of an interesting story.
"Misaki, come down here." He said loudly so the other on the second floor could hear him. Misaki went down the stairs and sat on the couch as Usagi motion him to and when was about to ask what this was about a voice spoke up, interrupting him.
"Thank you Hisashi-san. I'm Korukawa Nagi and I find myself outside of Tokyo General Hospital were the family of three and another man that were involved in a serious car accident yesterday afternoon are being treated. I just received information that all four victims are as of now alive and stable. The man suffered two rib fractures and a broken femur apart from some bruises from when his car spun out of control banging his ribs against the steering wheel repeatedly. As for the family of three, the mother suffered a concussion and a broken arm as well as a head laceration. The father was critical when they first arrived at General and the doctors had to perform an emergency surgery do to some internal bleeding. He also needed 10 stiches on his left leg do to the other car smashing into his door and causing a large cut on his upper thigh. Doctors indicate the father's surgery went well and we should expect a full recovery. The child of eight years was fortunate to have only suffered a head laceration and a mild concussion. " The reporter said.
Usagi then turned off the TV. He looked over to Misaki and smiled at the others relieved face. Misaki then smiled and released a sigh of utter relief as he sank back down to the couch.
"Yokata." He said.
Usagi just smiled, lit a cigarette and closed his eyes as he leaned back into the sofa.
"Usagi-san?" Misaki asked.
"Hn?" Came his grunt of acknowledgement. Suddenly Usagi felt a pair of warm lips on his cheek which made him snap his eyes open in shock. He looked down at a blushing and none eye contact making Misaki.
"Thank you again, for being there." He said.
Usagi just sat there for a few seconds trying to wrap his mind around the fact that Misaki kissed him on his own accord, sure it was on the cheek but considering Misaki is so shy it's still a big deal.
Then Usagi let the happiness he felt overwhelm him. He smiled sincerely, the kind smile that was for Misaki only.
"Always." He replied as he pet Misaki silky brown locks lovingly.
Misaki couldn't help but give back a small smile when Usagi smiled at him like that. It made his heart skip. It made him feel both nervous but strangely safe as well but must of all it made him feel,
Loved.
To be continued.
