~ Chapter 1 ~
It was a warm day and slightly cloudy. The wind was blowing softly while in the distance you could hear the birds singing a high pitched melody. The trees were as green as ever; while the flowers were blooming with bees circling them. The city streets were as packed as ever and the traffic was horrid. The air smelled of smoke from the cars and fast food.
Walking down the sidewalk in a fast pace and shoving through the busy crowd was Gundham. Gundham was wearing a white T-shirt with denim jeans and black boots. His belt had little chains hanging down and around his neck was a black cotton scarf. Although he wasn't cold, Gundham felt safe and secure with his scarf and he would prefer not to lose it. Gundham was cursing to himself about being late for his part time job. He couldn't believe his girlfriend wasted his precious time on which dress she should wear to the party. He really didn't care much for a relationship, but because his family forced him, he had no choice.
He felt a sense of relief wash over him when he finally arrived at his part time job "Hammy Hamsters." Gundham shoved the doors open and walked in excitedly, though he didn't show it on his face. Gundham put on his uniform and walked straight to the hamster section. He spoke in a loud manner "HELLO! MY DARK DEVAS OF DESTRUCTION! YOUR MASTER IS HERE HAHAHA!" His boss came around the corner and told him to shut up because he was scaring the customers.
Gundham didn't need a part time job, he was from a wealthy family. He just enjoyed taking care of animals, some would call him the "Ultimate Breeder." Although everytime someone would catch him with a small smile forming on his lips, he would blush madly and cover his face with his scarf. It was embarrassing to be caught snuggling an animal. He wanted to be known as a strong man, not sweet and sensitive.
Gundham's phone started to ring; he forgot to put his phone on mute, so blasting loudly was the song "Pink Fluffy Unicorns Dancing On Rainbows." Right then and there, Gundham lost his pride as a man. He answered the phone quickly.
"What is it this time?" Gundham whispered to the othe person on the line.
Who was it?
"Oh my gosh, guess what!" The familiar voice played, it was Gundham's girlfriend.
Who was Gundham's girlfriend?
It was her, the princess of a small European monarchy, Novoselic, they call it.
She, was one rich princess, of course, even though she had almost everything and was wealthy, she chose to travel to Japan to lean about it's magnificent culture.
She, was Sonia.
"What." Gundham replied, annoyed at Sonia because she'd always call Gundham every time he starts his shift.
"So my friend Chiaki is going to the party as well! Yee-"
"Does that even concern me?"
"Of course it does!" Sonia lectured, she takes her friends so serious that when someone insults them, Sonia would just simply slap them in their faces, real hard, "All my friends are coming to the party! And how about you, any friends coming to the party..?"
"I don't need friends." Gundham replied, more annoyed than he was.
"Come on Gundham, you're always with your animals, make some friends, socialise, and be hap-"
He hung up.
Gundham was tired of Sonia always calling him and blurtting about her friends and the annoying party to him.
The only reason he was ever with that annoying girl was that he was forced to.
Once his family found out that Sonia was lurking around in Japan, they instantly tried to contact Sonia to meet up with them, knowing that SHE would be THE ONE who would be their Daughter-in-law.
It wasn't his family's fault that Gundham was emotionless and anti-social. Gundham believes that the world is cruel and dark, filled with lies and all darkness. He somehow only trusts animals instead of cold human beings.
"Time to Work..." Gundham said, to the air around him.
Gundham's shift ended at about 8 PM. He took off his uniform and exited the store. Outside waiting for him was Sonia in a red party dress. He let out a low annoyed sound. Sonia ran up to Gundham and tried to kiss him. Gundham turned his head and placed his hand on her face pushing her away. She gave a pouty face and yelled "WHY WON'T YOU EVER KISS ME! I THOUGHT WE WERE DATING AND SOON TO BE MARRIED!"
Gundham scoffed " You're a nuisance, I don't plan on marrying you if I can help it."
Sonia stomped her foot and huffed "Well, your just confused right now, you truly wish to be with me and we WILL get married!" She linked arms with Gundham as he rolled his eyes.
They began walking down the street. She was rubbing up against Gundham and Gundham tried hard not to push her in the street. As they were about to turn a corner, a flash of light appeared before Gundham's eyes. He was laying on his butt and in front of him was a male with pink hair and yellow jump suit who was also on his butt. The man started yelling "WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING YOU-" the man stopped and stared at the Sonia. His eyes started twinkling at the beautiful blonde before him.
He ignored Gundham and walked straight to Sonia and tried to start a conversation. "HI! I'm Kazuichi Souda! And who might you be pretty lady?" He asked with a smile full of sharp pointy teeth. His hand was extended but Sonia just looked at it.
Sonia simply snuffed her nose up in the air and ignored him. She started whining to Gundham "GUNDHAMMMMM! HURRRY UPPPPP! WE'RE GOING TO MISS THE PARTYYYY!"
Gundham groaned and got up with an annoyed facial expression. "Shut up, it's better if we just don't go!" he hissed.
Kazuichi rose his voice "THAT'S NO WAY TO TALK TO A PRETTY LADY! How about I go with you Milady?"
Sonia continued to ignore him as she grabbed Gundham's hand and started pulling him. Gundham sighed and followed her. Kazuichi wasn't going to allow such a jerk to be with her, so he followed after them.
They finally arrived at the party.
"Omg hello, Sonia and Gundham.. And.. Kazuichi..? What a surprise, you're here as well."
Those words belonged to the one and only lucky student Nagito Komaeda.
"Wait.." Sonia paused for a moment before continuing her sentence, "You know this Cre... Guy?"
"Oh, umm, we used to be classmates in Middle School. He was known as the..
Ultimate Mechanic..
And the one who usually skips sch-"
"Watch your mouth, marshmellow hair."
"Right.. Sorry for spilling out too much information about you.. Geez.." Nagito brushed his snowy hair, while being pissed off by Kazuichi's remark about his own hair.
"Come on Gundham! Let's go!" Sonia tugged Gundham's arm as she forcefully dragged Gundham to the buffet table.
Kazuichi followed their footsteps as well, only because the 'pretty blonde' was getting smaller and smaller each step she took.
For the whole of the party, Gundham did not say or mutter a word, his mouth was buried in his scarf. Sonia took little notice on this because she was busy chatting away with her group of friends.
The only person who realized this was Kazuichi, even though Kazuichi had formed a 'first-sight' jealousy towards Gundham, he still noticed Gundham's silence.
Kazuichi had finally built up the courage to speak to Gundham.
"What's with your silence?"
Gundham turned his head around, still with his mouth buried in his scarf, only to find Kazuichi looking at him, even though they had 'just met', Gundham noticed the worried expression imprinted on Kazuichi's eyes. That was something Gundham expected Sonia to do, not the mechanic whom he just bumped into and met as well.
"I'm always like this."
Gundham replied, emotionless.
"...this seems like a stalker question but.. Why are you with that blonde even though you don't care about her..?"
'Why did the pink mortal ask me this.. Question?' Gundham thought to himself.
"Well.. Listen here pink mortal, the only reason I'm with HER, its because I like her, she's my world, I used to think this world was black and white, and cold, and harsh as well. Until SHE came into my life, she was my light to my darkness, she was the half of my.. Cold whole. I love her, we're getting married as well, in summer if you'd ask. We may seem like we don't care about each other, but.. We're a loving couple when at home.. Just so you see.. Pink mortal.." And with that lie, Gundham walked away, leaving Kazuichi, with a broken heart when he heard that they are getting married in Summer, which was 2 months away.
"Why.. Why do all the pretty flowers get plucked by another man.. Why.." Kazuichi whined to himself.
Gundham walked through the crowd looking for Sonia. He spotted her talking with Hajime Hinata. Gundham had a strong dislike for Hajime. Not because of Sonia of course, but because he would always call Gundham "softy", or "sickly sweet." Gundham groaned at the thought of bringing attention to himself, so he simply turned around and went outside. He was struggling on whether he should just leave Sonia and have her go home with her friends or stay in case everyone gets drunk and she gets left alone. Gundham wouldn't mind leaving her anyways but, his parents would kill him.
He sat on a concrete step and pulled out one of his dark devas from his pocket that he snagged from the store. "HAHAHA were you lonely? GOOD! YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A MERE SLAVE!" He yelled as he started feeding Cham-p a sunflower seed. He smiled slightly and started grooming his dark deva.
Kazuichi walked outside angry at that Hajime guy for brushing him off as he continued to flirt with "Sonia" as they called her. Kazuichi was pissed that she wasn't paying attention to him but to someone else. "I thought she was marrying that one jerk!" He cried. "MISS SONIA WILL NEVER NOTICE ME! NO! I WON'T GIVE UP!" He promised to himself.
Kazuichi turned his head and noticed that jerk from earlier. He was debating on if he should walk over and declare war, but the smile on the guy's face stopped him.
Why is that guy smiling?
He was annoyed that the guy gave more attention to an animal than his own fianc . Kazuichi walked over to him and stated "So, an animal is more important than the LOVE OF YOUR LIFE?"
Gundham simply looked up with a bored expression and retorted "Mere Mortal, Animals are not only better than my "lover" but, better than this filthy human race."
Kazuichi only had a shocked look on his face and didn't reply. Gundham figured he got his point across and continued grooming Cham-P.
Kazuichi didn't enjoy this man's company, he decided to get some revenge. He grabbed Gundham's scarf and started running inside to the party.
Gundham looked up quickly and saw the mortal run inside. He placed Cham-p back in his pocket and followed after him.
The room was filled with the aroma of alcohol and food. The loud music could give one a headache. Confetti and snacks were scattered all over the ground, and you could instantly smell the after effects of fornication.
Gundham stormed in showing a quite visible angry expression. Which is the first time in awhile he expressed anything visible to the human eye. He looked around the room and couldn't spot the mortal anywhere. He pushed his way in and thought to himself.
This is IRRITATING! WHY IS THIS MORTAL DOING SUCH THINGS!
Still...this is the first time I ever showed human emotions...
His face softened a bit but then he furrowed his eyebrows again. He checked different rooms and couldn't find him, though he did stumble upon different couples being intimate in bedrooms. He simply blushed while covering his face with his own two hands and slammed the door.
He heard a yell that sounded like the mortal's voice. He followed the voice and what he saw shocked him a bit. The mortal was being pinned to the wall by none other than Hajime. He seemed drunk and he was panting hard.
Kazuichi was confused on what was happening and he closed his eyes scared for his life.
"B..BR..BROWN MORT..MORTAL! GET YOUR HANDS OFF THE MECHANIC!" Gundham shrieked while trying to pry Hajime's fingers off of the mortal's wrists
'Wh..What did he.. Call.. Call me...? Mechanic...? B..but why...' The words in Kazuichi's mind played.
He was clueless and confused at why the emotionless being called him Mechanic instead of 'Pink mortal' or 'Mere Mortal', just something including the word 'Mortal'.
Before Kazuichi revealed his dark pink eyes, Gundham had his ever ready hand across Hajime's face.
"SNAP.. OUT.. OF.. IT.. BROWN.. MORTAL.. WHERE.. IS.. THE.. BLONDE.. WHY.. WERE.. YOU.. PINNING.. THE.. MECHANIC.. ONTO.. THE.. WALL.. WAKE.. UP.. IDIOT.. MORTAL.."
"You said it again.." Kazuichi muttered loud enough that Gundham's ears absorbed those words.
"Said what? Mechanic.."
Gundham looked into Kazuichi's pink eyes when he said those words.
"You didn't call me Mortal.. You called me by my title.."
"W...we...well.." Gundham avoided more eye contact with the mechanic's pink eyes, "It..It's because.. Because.."
Gundham stood up and walked towards Kazuichi.
Kazuichi started backing up only to find that he had exceeded his number of steps, because of the wall that linked the room Gundham and Kazuichi himself were in, to another, vacant room.
"Because.."
Before Gundham can explain the reason he saved Kazuichi from the drunk, idiotic and brown mortal.
Their lips met.
That was Gundham and Kazuichi's first kiss, ever.
Even though Gundham was dating Sonia, he had never had the time to care, when the blonde's, and the emotionless being's lips met.
Somehow, Kazuichi was into Gundham's sudden actions.
Kazuichi wrapped his hands around Gundham's waist, while their lips were still meeting.
Without a warning, Gundham pushed himself away from Kazuichi and his lips.
"I can't do this.. I'm getting married.. I can't betray her.. I can't.. I'm sorry.. Mechanic.."
Gundham grabbed his scarf and stormed off thinking.
'WHY DID I KISS THAT PINK MORTAL!' IMPOSSIBLE!
Sonia came Into sight and Gundham ran by while grabbing her wrist. She gasped, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING! I WAS TALKING TO CHIAKI!"
Gundham ignored her and kept running until they were about a mile away from the party. He stopped and Sonia was panting, she lost her heels somewhere as they were running. She was about to yell when she took notice of Gundham's face. He was blushing madly and his brows were furrowed.
Sonia could never get such a reaction from Gundham. So why now?
How did this happen, and who did it?
She snapped her fingers next to Gundham's face. "Hey, what happened? Why are we running?"
Gundham simply glanced at Sonia from the corner of his eye and said "That's none of your concern."
Sonia grew irritated, "IT IS MY CONCERN BECAUSE WE JUST STORMED OUT RUDELY OUT OF MY FRIEND'S PARTY! WHAT'S GOING ON! TELL ME THE TRUTH!"
Gundham stayed quiet and started walking. "If you don't wish to be alone, then follow me." He didn't glance back and continued walking. However he could hear her running up behind him and following.
Kazuichi stood there dumbfounded.
'Ehhhhh...What just happened!"
He thought to himself.
He put his hand over his mouth and blushed.
'I-I KISSED A GUY?!' I'M NOT GAY' he walked out of the room and down the stairs thinking to himself. He glanced around the room looking for the chocolate chip shaped haired man. He was pissed at himself for allowing it but he also felt sad that the man just left him there alone. He grumbled to himself and started to zone out to the music. "Maybe the music will help clear my mind..." He thought.
Nagito noticed Kazuichi staring off into space. He walked over and said "boo."
Kazuichi almost jumped out of his shoes and he yelled!
"BWAAAAAAAAAA!"
Nagito laughed and patted the mechanic's back. "You look worried there pal, something wrong?" He smiled.
Kazuichi's face heated up and he averted his eyes "NOTHING IS WRONG! MAYBE THE ONE WHO HAS PROBLEMS IS YOU!"
"I may be a psychopathic person with a murderous laugh, but I assure you, you're the one who has problems." Nagito said, while snickering.
"Ok fine, this is for research purposes, is it weird that, well.. That a guy kissed a guy, this is only for research purposes..."
Kazuichi looked away from Nagito and rubbed his mouth, while doing so, he unconsciously turned into a tomato.
"Well.. It is weird.. But I've always heard that.. If your feelings to that man-"
"THIS IS RESEARCH PURPOSES, MARSHMALLOW HAIR, IT'S NOT ABOUT ME, IT'S FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES!"
"Well, let me rephrase this again. If the feelings of Man.. A, are true to Man B. It isn't weird, because it's true love. Anyways I've gotta run, despair might be lurking in this hour."
With that sentence, Nagito made his legs work and ran off, into the darkness of the night.
"..T..Tr..True L..Lo..Love..?"
Kazuichi stammered while saying those two words.
With that stammering, Kazuichi, too, went off into the darkness, in the opposite direction of where Nagito ran off to.
"Well you know where I went during the party with Chiaki and my friends?"
"..uughhh.. Where.."
That conversation belonged to Gundham and rentless Sonia, who kept talking about her friends to the emotionless breeder, who is sick of Sonia's rentless behaviour. This boring conversation between them slowed them down.
"We went to the mall right beside the party place!"
"Uh huh uh huh.. Yea.. Well you should have told me where you went before you leav-"
Bang
Gundham banged into someone.
With the body of a man.
With the exact same hair color as the mechanic
As well as the same sunny jumpsuit the mechanic wore.
It was Kazuichi.
"WATCH WHERE YOU-... Its you again.."
Slience played.
Gundham said nothing to Kazuichi's words.
He didn't break the silence.
Gundham just simply, walked away from Kazuichi.
Kazuichi stood there, totally frozen by Gundham's reaction to bumping into him again.
Kazuichi thought the Emotionless being would just blurt out curse words at his face.
But no.
After that secretive lips visit,
Gundham and Kazuichi's feelings just.. Changed.. For the good.. It may be too good..
"Geez, what was that for." Kazuichi lied, to his true words.
He was going to say the three letter word to Gundham, even regardless of Sonia's presence
"I love you."
Those were the three words.
Sonia, who was acting like Gundham's dog, followed him, into the darkness, also leaving Kazuichi in the moonlight.
When Sonia was out of sight, Kazuichi got onto his knees and cried.
"I'm in love.. With a man.."
