54. Why Can't you Stop lying?
" GWEN!" Tomoe gasped out as he lungered forward; th lights approached them as Tomoe unbuckled himself quickly and wrapped his arms around the woman. He didn't understand what was going on but the images of his dead mother flashed through his mind.
He didn't want Nanami to go through that to..
He wrapped his arms around her right when the sound of grinding metal reached his sensitive ears; they pinned in pain and Gwen gasped out in shock. Tomoe thought it was over until he felt something sharp enter his leg; he yelped out and he head hit the windshield as the car jerked and flung him forward.
He was to shocked to scream; The only screams he heard was himself in a younger form. Screaming for his mother... His eyes drifted for a moment as sirens entered his hearing. He didn't know that Nanami and Mizuki had plied the ruined door open and started to shake him.
" TOMOE!" Mizuki screamed out as Nanami stood in shock.. He was limp in the seat and he had blood trinlking down his lip, and temple. She didn't have the guts to look at his leg.. It was probably sprained..
And there was glass in it.
The girl closed her eyes; trying to shake her head.. but all she heard was cracks and the crushing noises.
" Blockhead!" Nanami whimperd, " Your my bestest Friend in the world! WAKE UP ALREADY!" She screamed but was shocked when Tomoe opened his eyes. His violet eyes flashed from slits to normal again and he looked dazed.. Blood was all over him and he was just staring until he coughed and passed ou again.
Gwen was shaking as she sat in the seat but she was soon panicking over Tomoe; he was out cold and he was bloody everywhere. Mizuki was limping from keeping his foot on the back of the seat so that he and Nanami didn't fling forward.. He probably sprained an ankle but he didn't care.
His older brother wasn't waking up! HE WOULDN'T WAKE UP AND HE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO HELP! Was this how Tomoe felt when his mother died? When she laid lifelessly in the road and stared at him with cold eyes?
Was it that terrifing? He didn't want to loose his brother! He was already loosing his mother! He looked at Nanami and blinked; She was so shocked that she was just shaking and crying heavily. Tomoe wasn't waking up and she was scared.. This was her best freind since she was five..
Thats when Sirens sounded and Paramedics ushed them away. They opened Tomoe's eye and took his pulse; concusion... Laserations; And a sprained leg. They heard it all... and Tomoe had to be carried out of the car. He wouldn't move; even though his eyes had opened once more. He looked scared and shocked.
Tomoe looked around and hissed at all the lights being flashed in his face. His ears flatteed as he jerked his claws forward. He heard someone say, Ow! He scratched me!' And then another person screamed out that they had a yokai and needed to be careful.
Tomoe growled, He didn't liek being called that. He was like them.. Yes he had ears and a tail but that didn't mean anything! His father was a god! They didn't judge him! His father...
His father wasn't there.. He was in Izumo.
Thats when the lights faded away and he felt his body grow heavy. He knew they had put an IV in but that wasn't why he was fading out.. He was loosing consciencness again. He didn't want to loose it! It scared him.. it sent him to that dark place; or that place where fire men scrambled to put out the wrecks fire and his mother laid on the ground with a sharp piece of metal peteruding from her stomach..
His mothers stomach.
He didn't want to see it again! He was scraed! No one was there to take it away! He was scared! TAKE IT AWAY! He whimpered as men screamed around him..
Why was it that..
All he tasted was his blood?
A doctor winced and clucked his tongue as he walked towards Gwen and Nanami; Mizuki was in another room, getting his broken ankle handled and cared for; but this doctor looked relieved in a way.
Nanami had been crying and wondering why she was so panicked. Maybe it was the fact that her fried coudl die; maybe it was the fact she would never see his face again and his bright smile. His handsome smile that was confusing her more than she understood lately. She wated to see him! She wanted to hear him call her pig and blockhead; she wanted to see him reading his books around the house again and dare she say it? She missed how he would scream at her!
She was so scared; he had helped her even when he didn't know what was going on. When they were younger he would hug her and not know why. He didn't know why he woudl calm her down..
She was sexaully abused and he was there for her even when he didn't know; now she wanted to do the same and yet she wasn't allowed in the same room as him.
So when the doctor rushed towards them he smiled and asked if Gwen was Mikage...
And then it hit Nanami that she hadn't seen Mikage all day; She wondered why. Why was he not here? Her mother tried to call him but he wasn't answering. It.. Ticked her off. Her mother was here for her.. so where was Tomoe stinkin father? The father that Nanami thought was so close to the fox?
The doctor frowned before Gwen explained and he smiled slightly; " I Know Inari..' He laughed a bit before sighing, " The case looks good. The bleeding in the leg was from a large cut. It was taken care of.. He has a concusion, and maybe some shock but he seems good to go. We want to keep him over night and then within two days he can go home. " The doctor paused," Itss good thing the car didn't crush him; he took more force then all of you combined..' He winced when he walked away leaving Nanami to whimper.
Her mother limped up to her and smiled; This made the girl look at her worried before the woman smiled and just sighed, " Whiplash honey; I'm fine... I have Tomoe's room number. Do you want to see him?"
Nanami paused and then chewed her lip; She did want to see him. She wanted to see Tomoe; her best friend. Her hurting and misunderstood friend, her handsome and slightly sexy best friend.
She just didn't know if she wanted to see him in pain..
Everything was blurry; his leg was stinging. His head was pounding and everything was swirling around him. He coudln't move; his body was too heavy and he was on the edge of dreaming and reality. The medicine was so strong that he coudln't think straight.. Everything was mashing together...
He breathed out and then blinked; trying to focus.. That when he freaked when he felt something tuck his hair away; he blinked as slender fingers touched his hot; sweaty skin. He shuddered as it sent a chill went down his spine. A strange feeling came over him and he whimped as he looked up..
The colors blended and he didn't know where he was, He heard beeping and strange crying noises. The colors in front of him confused him and he sighed against the touch of the persons hand,
" D-Dad?" He choked out in hope; he didn't know why he wanted it to be his father. They were fighting; but his father said he would always be there for him right? He was in Izumo but did he come back? Woudln't that be the right thing to do? But then again..
When was his father ever doing the right thing?
" Tomoe? Its me.. Nanami, I'm here with Gwen." She whimpered out and Tomoe felt himself grow heavy hearted. He tried to swallow as hate settled in and tears welled up in his eyes.
His dad wasn't coming; did he even know? Did he know that Tomoe was just three rooms down from the place where his mother died? Did Mikage know how much pain Tomoe was in right now? Or was he in a meeting; not caring? Going through other peoples needs.. everyone but his.
The fox bit his lip as the tears rolled down his face; Nanami blinked in shock but didn't say anything. What was she supposed to say? What? She didn't know what to do and it was hurting her.. He always calmed her down! But she could't do so for him; why was that!?
She winced as her mother shook her head and pointed towards the door. Visiting hours was over so they had to leave; but Nanami was scared.. What was she going to do? What?
When they left Tomoe turned his bed and winced from pain in his leg;
' I'll always be there for you..'
Tomoe bit his lip; his mother said the same thing; and so did his father when his mother died. He had said that over and over again as he rocked Tomoe to sleep. He would rock Tomoe to sleep as the little fox would go to his mother's room and lay down on her old, worn, red, couch.
But now? They woudln't talk to each other; his father didn't trust him and Tomoe didn't trust him either. They both were fighting; neither one understood the other and now the son was in a hopistal room with no one to talk too.
" You liar... You blasted liar!" Tomoe screamed into his pillow as tears streamed down his face. They weren't like before; these tears held a new snense of hurt and pain. It hurt to even think that his father wasn't there! He was never there.. Never..
His promise wasn't broken this night,
It had been brocken a long time ago..
From the time when his father said it was sickening to look at him; from the time when Mikage stayed at work at late and Tomoe had to cook for himself at the age of ten. From the point where he wasn't allowed to his uncle or talk to his uncles girlfriend...
His life was hurting him so much; and the taste of blood was still there.. He looked over his bed and eyed a bucket; he lurched forward and whimpered out after he had finished. He laid back down and buried his face again..
He rubbed his wrists and winced when he noticed that his rubber bands were removed. He curses as panic went through his body; he looked over at his table and saw them with a note from Gwen.
He relaxed but then started to wail harder; his sides shook and he recoiled in pain..
Their promise was already broken..
And now Tomoe was crying himself to sleep as pain went though his shaking, and shocked filled body..
Somewhere at the School
" I see you have been to school for this? Its rather surprising; given what happened in your family situation." A woman smiled as she shuffled some papers and let the man sign his name. He was fullfiling a nice job; giving that volunteering at the hospital wasn't cutting the bills from where he was living.
He chuckled, " Yes, It is rather hard to imagine; but I did go for four years and graduated at the top of my class. I'm glad I coudl get this job." He flashed a smile that made the woman look away and blush heavily.
" I can see your a charmer.."
He laughed, " Ever since I was younger; Sadly I'm taken." He lifted his hands, trying to get rid of his accidental reaction. To be truthful he was popular when he was younger, He just didn't think he still was.
She laughed and showed her wedding ring, " So am I.'
They both stared and then cracked up in embarrassment at the awkward atmosphere. The woman shook her head and had the man sign the line before laughing.
" Welcome Mr. Principal."
The man smirked and leaned back in the chair before looking up at her through his black bangs, " Thank you.." She laughed and walked out before he got a phone call. He looked at the caller ID and answered quickly.
" Hello?"
" How was it!?" A voice sounded making the man smile; and having his insides twist like it always had,
" Well..." He paused and smirked as she whined,
' ARENO!"
He smirked as he looked out the window; completely unaware that this was his nephews school,
" I Got the Job..'
