(A/N: Hey, Bros! so after I made the first chapter, and posted it and what-not, I got a LOT of support from my good friend, Hari. So thanks, Face. And one of the reviews mentioned me "creatively making up" Kaito's last name… *confession time* I didn't make it up; I actually just plane out spelled it wrong. But thanks for being so nice! :D
And now back the drama that is Kaito's life! ~ )
*Kaito's POV*
All eyes were on me. I felt my face become hot and I panicked. Shit, shit, shit, shit what do I do?! Please let me out of this! Come on! Then my phone buzzed in my pocket. I pulled it out to check it, while everyone still watched. The mood suddenly changed when my face went from embarrassed to sad.
"My manager has a new song for me…." My words that use to be out of joy were now in fear. No one breathed a word; they kept their heads down because they knew what was in store for me. Poor Gakupo was so confused. But didn't speak out, he probably wouldn't have anyway. I left and went my room; I didn't want to be alive today.
*Gakupo's POV*
When Kaito left, I couldn't help but feel bad. But didn't he see how cute he just was? That was adorable! I took a sip of my tea, and then politely asked Meiko what was wrong with him.
She hesitated before answering, "… Kaito doesn't like to get new songs anymore because he can't read them well… it use to be okay with our old manager, he was really nice to him! Hell, he wouldn't even be embarrassed about when he read in public… but then we got a more "in"—she added air-quotes—" manager, now the poor boy is miserable, "
I took another sip. "I see…"
What was wrong with reading? Maybe I should talk to him, I suppose I could make him feel better.
But how? …
After breakfast I received my first song, Via E-mail. It seemed okay. I sang it to make sure I understood it. Then I decided to listen to some of Kaito's songs.
This looks cute, 'story of a blue rabbit' huh? … oh… oh, god… I…oh wow, that is scary!
I quickly left that song to find another.
Get down? This seems alright. … Hey, it's actually kind of cute!
I found myself smiling wide when the bluenet came into the living room. He looked at me, completely flushed, and I grinned.
Cute.
*Kaito POV*
I awkwardly sat with Gakupo; he probably thinks I'm a fool…
Wait! Why should I care?! This Guy is tall and creepy!
"Are you okay?" Gakupo's smooth voice chimed.
"I'm okay… just stressed." I shrugged as if I didn't care. Maybe I could still be cool! This thought boosted my confidence a little and I smiled a bit.
"I see, well, seeing as its 10:00, and the store is probably open, would you accompany me on a trip? I need to buy some eggplant and, like I said yesterday, you seem to know your way around."
I looked up at him, he smiled at me and I looked down. I didn't know if I wanted to go, but maybe Gakupo really just needed my help…
"Okay, I'll go with you" I smiled and he pat my shoulder.
"Good, be ready in ten minutes." Gakupo said as he left
I was ready in only five minutes, for the purpose of showing Gakupo that I could be ready before him. Take that Mr. punctual!
he came in and I smiled at him, "ready? " I asked kind of proud of myself.
"…I am… but are you?" he looked not-amused. I checked to see if I was missing something… what does he mean 'am I ready'? Of course I am!
"Your shoes, Where are your shoes?" he sighed, rubbing the bridge of his nose
"m-my shoes?" I looked down at my feet and sure enough they were lacking the protection my shoes. "oh! My shoes! Right! Let me get them!" I ran to me room feeling stupid. The shoes?! Of all things!? How hard is it to remember to put on my shoes?!
I went back over to Gakupo, stumbling to put my shoes on while walking. He smiled at me and we left.
I think I might… kind of…. Sort of ... like him…
AS A FRIEND!
