I decided to edit it a bit. Maybe it will be a better story now.

Out of time

Time was never on his side. The short and slender blond always knew one day his life would be taken away from him. Probably in a cruel way that he would have no say over. In many ways, Syo Kurusu felt like a permanent burden upon his friends and family. His heart, so weak and frail, was a constant reminder that he would one day he would cease to exist. But his life came with a time limit that he had already proven wrong.

Syo woke up that morning to his sempai, Ai, calling to him. Nastuki must have still been mad at him for not eating the cookies he had made him, and not women him up as punishment. It was quiet rare to see the older blonde upset.

"Syo, according to my data, you have an interview with Starish in a few minutes and have not completed the daily tasks I have set for you." Ai said emotionlessly. His cyan haired sempai watched him with dull eyes, but just barely. It seemed as though Ai was more focused on his computer screen than the blonde across the room.

Syo jumped from his bed so he could get ready. Of course being the most stylish member of Starish he always took the time to pick his outfits. "You're not going to make the carpool if you spend so long looking for something to wear." Ai said sitting down in his white chair.

"I'll run if I have to." Syo said not looking at his sempai. He would let his appearance be ruined by such things as making it on time for a ride.

As it turned out, Ai was right. The rest of Starish had already taken off by the time he was done getting dressed. Luckily for him, Otoya was nice enough to text him the the address for the radio station. Otoya had also told him to take his time, the interview had been pushed back an hour. Taking the redhead up on his word Syo decided to walk through the park to get there. It wasn't really a shortcut, but it was a fairly warm fall day. The leaves were shades of red and gold. The kind of day where the grass still softly crunched beneath the soles of his shoes and the sky turned a shade of light baby blue.

"Hey shota." The girly voice, that could only belong to Nagi Mikado from a once rivaled band named Heavens, called out.

"I am not small." Syo fumed. He was very sensitive about his height. Over the last few months since Starish had won the Utapri award, the members of Heavens were nice to Starish. Well not exactly nice, but they could be in a room without much argument.

"What do you want Mikado?"

"Oh, nothing, I was just walking home from school when I saw a little lost shota. So I thought I should stop and see if he needed help." Nagi laughed. His hand pushed his pale pink hair out of his face.

"Walking home? Doesn't Kira pick you up every day?" Syo asked sitting down on a near by bench. He leaned back Ai he could look at the cloudless sky.

"He and Eiichi are busy today. What are you doing out here?" Nagi sat next to him.

"What, can't I take a walk in the park." Syo said jokingly. " I was on my way to meet up with the rest of Starish, and I thought I'd take this route. After all, it's such a nice day."

"It is a nice day out, I can't blame you for walking through the park." Nagi smiled in agreement. A gust of wind blowing his hair against his face.

"Well," The pink haired boy jumped up from his place next to Syo. " I'm out of time."

Syo froze, that phrase was the very one he used to describe his life. It didn't sound right coming from Nagi. It gave Syo a bad feeling. " I don't like that phrase." He said quietly.

Nagi turned to look at Syo. It was just a saying wasn't it? It wasn't as if he ment to offend the blonde in any way. Besides, why would somebody not, like it.

"It's just a saying." He said before turning on his heels and leaving. He didn't bother to look at Syo's face. His own cheeks had reddened. What a silly thing to dislike.
