"It is alright Big Brother, you can continue to play in your coffin."
Sipping his ice tea, Akio frowned. Just what had Anthy meant by that? Just why had she left like that? It was annoying and frustrating to be filled with questions, and not having any answers for them. It was frustrating and annoying that Anthy could just leave him so easily. They loved each other, why would she want to leave him?
"Because you forgot the reason why you wanted to revolutionize the world."
The soft voice, that sounded so much like Akio's own, was only scowled at and ignored. That damn voice was so annoying, especially when he was trying to enjoy a good brooding and ice tea. If Anthy were here, he could be having some fun with her. Kanae certainly was no fun, and he was beginning to regret including her in the little game. Of course, he would have never expected Anthy to go so far as to mentally destroy the girl. Maybe it was because Anthy had been jealous.
A hand slid down his chest, and Akio swatted it away, turning to glare at a face that looked exactly like his own.
" What are you doing?" he hissed, although it sounded more like a whine.
The Akio-doppelganger only smirked, hand returning to once again rest on Akio's chest.
" You lost the Rose Bride" the Akio-doppelganger spoke.
Now Akio was most definitely sulking. " You say it like it was my fault," he muttered.
A hollow laugh, and Akio was pinched, jumping slightly at just where it was he had been pinched.
" You underestimated that girl."
" She was a girl! Girls aren't supposed to become princes"Akio muttered.
The hand began to drift lower, and Akio jumped once again, his knee bumping the table and nearly knocking the ice tea over.
" Can't you see I'm drinking?" Akio shouted at his doppelganger, receiving only a smirk and yet another cruelly pleasurable touch.
" Wanna become my Rose Bride?" the Akio-doppelganger replied, watching as Akio's eyes widened in anger.
There was a bit of a struggle, Akio managing to wrestle himself away from his doppelganger, escaping to the other side of the room. Since the final duel, this persona had suddenly showed up, making his life miserable. Now he wondered if this was how everyone else felt when faced with the raw sexuality that was simply Akio.
" The game can not continue without a Rose Bride," his doppelganger said, now settling on the couch as he sipped at Akio's forgotten tea.
" Then there won't be a game" Akio said, eyes narrowing slightly as he watched the doppelganger sip /his/ tea.
The doppelganger laughed, beckoning Akio over to him. Hesitantly, Akio made his way over to the sofa. The same sofa where he and Anthy did the deed when they had gotten caught that day, he thought to himself, sitting down beside his doppelganger.
An arm was thrown around his shoulder, the doppelganger leaning close as lips sought out an ear to nibble on.
" Will you please stop that?"
"Since when have you become so shrewd? Keep this up and I'll start calling you Dios."
As Akio was felt up by his doppelganger, he wondered if this was how Anthy felt. She had never complained though. All she did was just smile freakily at him. He hated that smile. It was almost like she wasn't even trying to hide how fake her emotions were.
" You know she chose that girl over you, right? That's why she was able to open the gates. Anthy chose her," the doppelganger said sweetly.
Even though Akio wanted to deny it as lies, he knew that the doppelganger was right. The choice had been up to Anthy the entire time. He could never be her prince, Utena could. So she chose Utena.
Feeling his doppelganger's hand slid down into his pants, Akio was jarred from his thoughts.
" Hey, let's watch the stars together" his doppelganger whispered into his ear.
There was only a split second of thought as the shutters came slamming close, and then Akio was too busy to think anymore.
