Chapter 1; Hazuki
A young boy hides behind the door looking at his drunken father.
"F-father?" he says slowly walking in. When his father notices him, he throws his glass at the boy.
Glass smashing against the wall!
"GET OUT! You're not my son! You're not!" he yells, and the boy backs away freighted. "Why the hell were you even born? Because of you, I lost her, I lost my job, and I even lost my best friend, all because of you! GET OUT! AND DON'T EVER COME BACK YOU CURSED CHILD!" with that the boy runs out of the house into the cold night and doesn't stop until he reaches a park. He sits under a tree and starts crying.
Akihiko's POV
I was walking home from a meeting Aikawa dragged me to, although I wasn't really looking forward to going home, because Misaki wasn't going to be there. He and his friends went on a trip and I couldn't do anything to stop him. So for now I'm alone. Though he was coming back tomorrow, I still felt a little lonely.
I was walking through the park near my condo, when I heard a whimper and stopped in my tracks. I look around and see a young boy about 7 or 8, with similar hair color to mine (only lighter), leaning against a tree and sobbing. I sigh and turn to walk away, but, for some reason I couldn't leave the kid there, all alone. I look back at him, and remember doing the same thing when I was a kid. I sigh again and walk over to the boy.
"Are you alright?" I ask him, he looks up at me with tears in his eyes, and I then notice his eyes are different colors, his left eye is green and his right eye is purple (which also has a beauty mark underneath) he also had bruises and scratches on his face, he just stays quiet. "Are you hurt? Are you lost kid?" I ask him. No response. "Ugh, I wish Misaki was here, he's better at handling kids than me." I thought.
I sigh again. "There's a police station around here, and they might be able to help you find your family." I say, and then the boy looks at me with fear in his eyes. He quickly gets up and starts to run away, but doesn't get far before he falls. He starts crying again. "Hey, hey, it's okay, I didn't mean to scare you." I say and gently put my hand on his shoulder, and he starts shuttering.
I sigh again and start walking away. I stop outside my home, and I notice the boy from before hiding behind a trash can. I walk over to him and peer behind the can. "Are you following me kid?" I ask. He opens his mouth about to speak, but, he faints before the words come out. I quickly catch him in time before he hits the ground.
Worried, I feel his forehead and find he doesn't seem to have a fever, but, I take a close look at the kid and find him looking worn out and starving. I pick up the boy and carry him into my condo.
I lay him on the couch and go into the kitchen and find one of Misaki's bento lunches in the fridge. I walk back to the boy and find him waking up.
"About time, you okay?" I ask. He then starts looking around somewhat scared and confused. "You passed out and so I took into my house." I tell him, thinking that he must have been curious about where he was, and he seemed to be relieved. I sigh "Can you at least tell me your name?" I ask.
"I-its H-Hazuki." He says nervous while shutters.
"Akihiko Usami." I introduce myself and he seems stunned. "It's okay I won't hurt you. Here." I say giving him the bento. He reluctantly takes it and opens it. He looks at the sushi, dumplings and rice balls inside hungrily and starts munching on them like he hasn't eaten in years.
"Wow, someone was hungry." I say when he finishes the bento. I take another look his appearance again. He was dirty all over and also seemed cold. "How about taking a warm bath?" I say and hold out my hand to him. He shakily takes it and we head upstairs to the bathroom.
In the bathroom I crouch down and try to take off his clothes, but he slaps my hands and backs away terrified.
"No! No! No!" he screams scared.
"Hazuki-kun, what's wrong?" I ask. He just sits down and hugs his knees to his chest while rocking back and forth. "Hey, I wasn't trying to hurt you, I'm sorry if I scared you." I say and walk over to the bathtub and start filling it with warm water. "You can hop in when it's filled, just put your clothes out the stand there." I tell him and leave the bathroom and go into my room.
I look in my closet and find a box with some old clothes in it from when I was a kid. I didn't know why I kept them, but I was glad I did. I took out my old pajamas and walk back into the bathroom and find Hazuki in the bath. I take his messy clothes and leave my old clothes there instead, but when I start to walk out I look to see Hazuki asleep and drowning.
"Hazuki-kun!" I drop his clothes and run to him and quickly pull him out of the tub and hold him in my arms, while shaking him lightly. "Hazuki-kun! Hazuki-kun! Are you okay?! Answer me!" I yell at him. I then notice bruises and scars covering his body. "Oh my god." was what I thought. It made sense now, why he freaked when I mentioned his family and why he seemed scared to be touched. He then slowly starts to regain consciousness again.
"Huh? What happened?" he says.
"You fell asleep and nearly drowned." I explained.
"Oh, I'm sorry." He says.
"No need to apologize. Are you okay?" I ask.
"Yes I am. Again I'm sorry I troubled you." Hazuki said.
"Stop apologizing." I say to him and he just stays quiet. "Hazuki-kun, can I ask you something?" I ask and he nods. "Are you, being abused?" I ask and he freezes. He then starts struggling to get out of my grasp. "Hazuki-kun calm down! It's okay, it's okay! I'm not going to hurt you!" I try to reassure him and gently tighten my grip.
"P-please…" Hazuki muttered.
"Hazuki-kun?" I ask concerned.
"P-please don't tell dad." He says and I'm speechless. "I'm sorry that I took mom, I'm sorry that I made him loose his job, I'm sorry for what happened with his friend…"
"Hazuki-kun calm down, it's alright." I tell him and hug the shaking boy in my arms. "I'm not going to hurt you." I tell him. "Do you have any other family?" I ask. He just shakes his head in response. "If you want, you can stay here."
"Really?" he asks and looks up at me. I nod in response. "You're just like I imagined you'd be." He says and leans his head against my chest.
"Huh? What do you mean by that?" I ask confused at what he said.
"Truth is I've always read your books." He replies and I was shocked, he was so young and he read my novels. "Whenever father got into a mood after drinking so much I would hide in my room and read, mostly your books because I felt like they spoke to me mostly. Reading the stories I thought 'the author must be a really nice man. I wish he was my father'." I couldn't believe what he just said.
"Well then let's get you rinsed and dressed." I say. He smiles his small smile and hops back in the tub.
Later I change into pajamas and find Hazuki in my night clothes.
"Hazuki, come here." I say and take him into the bear room. "You can any one you want, but only one, okay." I tell him and he starts looking around. He points to a small Suzuki-san with a green ribbon and purple rose on it. "That one?" I ask and he nods. I take the bear off the shelf and hand it to Hazuki. "What are you going to name it?" I ask.
"Aki-chan." He replies and we both smile.
I lent Hazuki Misaki's bed since it was empty. I lay in my bed unable to sleep thinking of the poor child.
Now that I thought about it, I saw myself in the kid, which was probably why I couldn't leave him alone. Although I wasn't abused, we both had families that didn't truly love us and felt all alone with no one there for us. Although I have Misaki now, I knew how he feels being alone.
I slowly drift off to sleep, when I hear a 'thud' outside my door. I quickly get out of bed and walk outside the room. I look around and find Hazuki snuggled with Aki-chan near my door and shaking.
"Hazuki are you okay?" I ask him and he looks at me with tearful eyes.
"I-I'm 'sniff' sorry." he manages to say through his sobs. "I didn't mean 'hic' to wake you. Please 'sniff' don't be mad."
"Hazuki it's alright, I'm not mad, now what happened?" I say and crouch down to his area help him up and.
"T-there's a, m-monster in…t-the closet 'hic' and I 'sniff' g-got s-sc-scared! I'm sorry for waking you." He replies.
"Then you can sleep with me if you'd like?" I ask him.
"Really, is that okay?" he asks.
"Yes. Come here." I say and pick him up and carry him into my room.
"Um…can I ask you something, Mr. Usami?" he says when I put him on the bed.
"Sure, ask away." I reply.
"Can I call you father?" He asks and I slightly blush.
"Okay." I reply and he smiles. "Alright, time to go to sleep." I say and crawl into bed.
"But, what about the monster?" Hazuki asks. I reach out and grab Suzuki-san and pull him next to Hazuki.
"There, I'll protect on this side and Suzuki-san will protect on that side, okay?" I say.
"Okay." Hazuki replies.
"Goodnight Hazuki." I say and hug him close.
"Goodnight, Father." He says and snuggles in my embrace. And the two of us slowly drift off into sleep.
So how does that sound? I know that Usagi would never really take in a kid like that, but come on its fanfiction.
And if you're wondering about the different colored eyes, I wanted Hazuki to look like both Akihiko and Misaki. I got the hair down, but I couldn't decide whether to give him Akihiko's purple or Misaki's green eyes, so I did both, I thought it would be interesting.
P.S. Please post reviews.
