It's been a while hasn't it...? Well, I could go on & on about why I haven't posted things, but instead of boring everyone with my life, I'll let you get to reading this short but still kinda cute-ish Nezumi x Shion one-shot! :)
To Steph: I know this isn't the idea you gave me, I'm still working on that one (I'm so slow lately DX) But this is for you, Hope you're feeling Better now! :D
"Nezumi!" A raspy voice strained out. Tears fell down the cheeks of the boy who ran towards his friends' collapsing body. His silver hair stuck to his face and his scars glowed against his whitening face. He ran aimlessly towards his friend, not getting any closer than he was the step before. Anger and fear coursed through his veins as he watched the boy he called Nezumi, choke out blood.
"Nezumi!" A fading cry disappeared into a blazing white light.
"Nezumi!?" The silver haired boy shot up in his bed. Sweat trickled down his face and back, causing shivers to take over his body. The sheets that once covered his body were tangled and hanging off the mattress. His breathing was heavy as he took in his surroundings. Shelves covered with books took up half the room, while the other half was taken up with a piano, a couch and table and the bed the silver haired boy sat in. Nezumi's room, But where's Nezumi?
The boy's question was answered quickly when the door to the room shot open and a tall boy ran in, clutching a knife in his hand, ready to attack. He glanced around the room quickly to realize that he and the silver haired boy on the bed were the only two in the room.
"Shion, what happened?" Nezumi's voice was full of concern and desperation. He rarely let the other boy out of his sight, in case he was to get himself into trouble. But when Nezumi had left, Shion was sound asleep, curled up peacefully on the bed.
Shion didn't answer the question that was directed at him. He jumped out of the bed, the sheets still tangled around his lower body, and grasped for the other boy. The silver haired boy clung to Nezumi as his eyes began to sting with tears. Nezumi is safe. It was only a dream...
"S-Shion...?" Nezumi blinked, not sure what the problem was to cause his smaller friend to cry out his name. Was he hurt? Did someone attack him while he was sleeping? No, that was impossible. Nezumi was just outside the underground apartments. No one could have gotten down there without being seen by the dark haired boy. Shion held onto Nezumi's jacket tighter as his sobs grew louder and more violent. The taller boy didn't know what to do or say. Shion didn't cry unless it was necessary.
"Shion...What's wrong? Are you okay?" Nezumi reached around the smaller boy and began stroking his silver hair. Shion pulled away and shook his head, a tiny smile on his quivering lips.
"I-I had a nightmare...You were...But It was only a dream...So I'm okay." The smaller boy wiped a tear out of his eye and smiled brighter towards the still confused Nezumi. Nezumi shook off the puzzled feeling and pulled Shion into a tight embrace. Shion was taken aback by the action but decided not to question Nezumi. It was rare for the taller boy to show any emotion other than cockiness and hate for No.6.
"It was only a dream, I'm still here and I always will be." Nezumi mumbled into Shion's fair locks. The smaller boy nodded and snuggled closer into Nezumi.
This is an older piece that I've been working on...I wasn't sure where I was going with it...but I think it's turned out to be something simple & cute?
Hope you all enjoyed!
