Going Back For No One
Yuki's POV
' I can't believe it i'm going back to Japan. I'm going to see him again!. I looked for my seat in the first class section of the airplane. I walked through the path way with Mika ,my sister, behind me. For some reason She's been looking at me really weird since she annouced that we were going back to Japan. I don't know why and i don't i want to know. I sat on the window seat with MIka beside me. After a couple of minutes she asks me something.
"Neh Yuki-kun?" she said a bit hesistant, which made me wonder she was never one to hesitate she's always been straight forward.
"Nani nee-san?" i asked looking at her.
"Are you going to visit that boy?" She asked looking at me 'That boy' i thought so i gave her a questioning glance to indicate i didn't understand.
"You that boy you met when you were younger the one with pink hair." She said looking past me and to the window behind me.
"Why are you even asking Mika?" I asked not really understanding on why she'd want to know.
"Because didn't you try calling him and sending leters but not once did you get a single thing back. He didn't return your calls nor did he reply to any of your letters." She said making sure to look me in the eyes.
I gave her a glare that could possibly kill and stated simply and coldly "Yes, he did" After saying this she gave me her glare which could rival my own but could never win. "Yeah sure he did," started Mika sarcasticlly then ending with a firm tone of "But only for the first three months that you were gone."
That being said i couldn't say anything back because as much as i hate to admit it it's true. After three months we just stopped comunicating actually he stopped I called and sent letters but like MIka had said i got nothing back. I have an even less chance on seeing him now, since were not going to be living in the same place anymore.
"Look I don't mean for you to go all sad and dissappointed but I just don't want you to expect a big grand welcome from him after so long, getting your hopes up, then come crushing down and then that hope getting burried six feet under when he doesn't even remember you anymore."
I hated thinking that. That the person i had love most and still do has forgotten about me. That can't be true can it? Am I going back for Japan for nothing. Well actually my father wants us home but that isn't the point.
'Shu-chan have you forgotten me?' i sighed after so many thoughts coming through my head. At that moment i knew my facial expression had changed since Mika had asked me if I was ok. I just gave her a slight nod not really trusting my voice.
After of which i looked outside the window to see the rain still pouring it hadn't stopped since last night, now its 9am. The plane started virbrating alerting the passangers the plane was getting started to move. The pilot had said a few words then the flight attendance started performing the emergency plan. Showing how to put on life guards, where the oxygen mask will appear and how to put it on and showing the emergency exits. As always its boring they same the samething everytime, it kinda gets irritating if you've been to too many plane flights.
The plane started moving looking like a speeding car this is my one favorite part on the plane this and when landing and flying up. I'm always amused when the water on the ground looks like they're making way for the plane. After awhile it stated to tilt to fly up. I watch the city light fade into the dark and buildings grow smaller and smaller till all I could see was the dark clouds in the sky.
For a moment i had forgotten about my current problem on thinking that shu-chan had forgotten me but of course it was only for a moment. Infront of me was a television set they were some kinda of movie playing called "Forever in your arms" It's about two lovers getting seperated because of a horrible accident both getting amenisia, but as they meet again years later they fall in love all over again, in the end they both the regain their memories and live happily ever after. I didn't really pay attention much. 2 hours laters the movie had ended and Mika had fallen asleep.
I took out my ipod and scanned through some of the songs, to stop and hit the play button at a song tittled "Forever Friends" by Shuichi Shindou (A/N not badluck) It had started with a soft intro of Shu-chan plaing the piano after some time a voice comes in and sings. I remember this very well when he had given it to me an hour before i went to the airport to fly to America.
FLASHBACK
Normal POV
(knock-knock )
A knock was heard in the Uesugi household. Mika the eldest in the house had answered the door while Yuki was still packing the last few things. She was faced with a pink-haired little boy looking so cute with a little envelope in his hands.
"i'm guessing your here for Eiri"
"Hai!" answered Shuichi with a smile. Mika let Shuichi in and had called Yuki down. YUki had said "Shuichi" as a way of a greeting. After the akwardness they had headed of to Yuki's room which had nothing left anymore except a bed withn no bedsheet and one or two boxes here and there.
Shuichi had started the conversation by handing Yuki an envelope "Here I just wanted to give you this, kinda of a last minute gift don't really know if its a christmas present or a going away present.
"Arigato, can i open it?" asked Yuki
"Ano can you open it when your in the plane or something" suggested Shuichi. Yuki had agreed even though he wanted to know what it was
After sometime of another akwardness and silence Shuichi started to tear up making Yuki worry about him. Before Yuki could comfort him though Shuichi hugged him full force sending them both back to the bed behind them. Shuichi cried hard on Yuki's chest while Yuki wrapped his arms around Shuichi.
"You'll be -sob- back -hiccup- right?" Yuki lay motionless because of two reasons 1) was their positions shuichi lay directly on top of him 2) was that this was the first time Shuichi had ever cried thid hard. Shuichi had continued crying but now their positions had changed from lying down to Yuki sitting up against the wall and Shu on his lap. Yuki had tried everything to make Shu stop crying but having failed after so many times he figured he'd just hold Shu close as long as he could.
Mika chose to enter after some time to announce that they were now leaving, that did little to calm Shuichi it had actually made it worse.
"Gomen, demo Eiri it's time to leave" after saying this Mika went outside to let the boys have some time alone.
Yuki lifted Shuichi up and relunctunly let go. Yuki tilted Shu's face to be able to look into each others eyes. Yuki wiped away the tears with his thumb and kissed Shu near the lips,(A/N it wasn't directly on the lips but had kissed part of the corner) before leaving for the car they had hugged one last time. Shuichi watched as the car drove off. He had clutched on the necklace Yuki had given him.
In the plane 11 year old Yuki waited till Mika fell asleep to open the envelope. Expecting a letter he was suprised to see a cd with a neat handwriting that says "A song for Yuki-Eiri Uesugi from Shuichi Shindou' . So he looked for a portable cd player in Mika's bag since he had a feeling with shu's talent he can make a song.
he listened to the first track it was Shu's voice trying to say a proper goodbye but the hiccups from crying interrupting him everytime. After Yuki listened to the first one he moved on to the 2nd track where he heard a soft intro of Shuichi playing the piano. After sometime a voice came in.
Don't forget the past
Look back even for a while
Remember the times you held me close
The times I thanked you for your comfort
You are my friend
Do not forget
I cherish you most
Out of everything i know
Look at the sky
The sun, the clouds
Think back to where we lay
A top a hill
When we made
The promise of forever friends
Don't forget the past
Look back even for a while
Let a tear drop if you must
I'll be by your side
To dry your eyes
Because Yuki...
We both made the promise of forever friends.
As the song finished Yuki had tears in his eyes and down his cheeks he didn't bother stopping them and had let it fall.
END FLASHBACK
I sat on my seat as i remembered the past and had finished listening to the song. Tears threathened to fall but i held them back, i got sleepy so i laid my head on the chair and before i fully closed my eyes i let a tear trail down my cheeks.
"Shuichi"
