Are You Still Mine?

Part 2
Sage exited the apartment building and made his way towards the subway.
Sage had been waiting for weeks for an excuse to see Rowen, and when he had found the stash of Rowen's stuff shoved in the back of his closet, Sage's heart had leapt with joy. Sage had spent many sleepless nights trying to figure out what to say to Rowen. But everything had come out wrong. How he longed to run back into the building and pull Rowen into his arms and kiss that smooth pale skin.
"Touma."
Rowen pulled the box that Sage had brought, up into his lap. He began to shift through the stuff. Inside were some of Rowen's favorite books. There were also old shirts of his. Rowen picked up one peculiar looking book and opened it. The book held pictures of Rowen and Sage together. Rowen couldn't hold back his sobs anymore. Rowen slowly flipped through the book, reliving all the memories as he looked at all the pictures through blurry eyes. The pictures brought back the pain of what Rowen had lost that night when he had kissed Mia. He had lost all of his friend's trust and Sage's love. Rowen rested his head in his hands as he relived that night.
Rowen walked through the door quietly hoping not to disturb anyone in the house. He glanced over at the clock. It was three o'clock in the morning. Man, was he hungry. Rowen quietly made his was to the kitchen and was startled to find Mia sitting at the kitchen table staring at a bowl of now cold rice. Rowen moved closer and realized that Mia was crying. Rowen stopped to think for a moment. I don't think Mia's ever cried before, Rowen thought as he placed his hands softly on her shaking shoulders.
"What's wrong Mia?" Rowen asked his concern showing his deep blue eyes.
"Oh Rowen, you scared me," Mia said as she looked up at him. Rowen began to rub the back of her neck trying to get her to relax.
"What's wrong Mia?" Rowen asked as he stopped rubbing her back to pull up her chin so that he could see her face.
"You're crying Mia!" Rowen said stilled shocked at the idea that someone as strong as Mia could cry. He took a tissue out of the box on the table and began to wipe away the tears from her face.
"Don't be so shocked, Rowen," She said a smile breaking through her tears. Rowen reached out and brushed away the new flow of tears from Mia's face.
"Oh, Rowen," Mia said as she threw herself into Rowen's arms. "I feel so lost," She said with a forlorn sound in her voice.
"Shhh, it's all right Mia, I'm her for you. Don't cry," Rowen said as he rubbed her back in comforting motions trying to get her to stop shaking.
"Would you mind telling me what's bothering you," Rowen asked his eyes soft with compassion.
"I miss Anubis so much," Mia said as she rested her head in the hollow of Rowen's neck. Rowen leaned down and softly kissed the top of Mia's head. Mia brought up her head and looked into Rowen's eyes. Before Rowen could do anything her lips were on his and Rowen reflexively kissed Mia back.
"Rowen?" a voice came from the stairs startling Rowen. He quickly pushed Mia away but it was too late. Sage was standing in the doorway with a look of complete shock on his face. Suddenly he turned and sprinted up the stairs.
"No, Sage! Come back," Rowen shouted as he stood up and ran up the stairs after Sage knocking down several chairs in the process.
After that night Rowen had decided to move out of the house that all five Ronins had shared for three years. Rowen couldn't live in the same house with Sage and see that look of hurt in Sage's blue-violet eyes when they made contact with his deep blue ones.
Rowen closed the photo album and got up from the couch. He walked into his room and crawled under the covers of his bed. Rowen pulled the sheets up around him in a protective cocoon and tried desperately to will the memories away so that he could get some sleep.
Sage leaned back in his seat on the subway. He let out his breath in a long sigh. He missed Rowen so much. There was a huge hole in Sage's life where Rowen's love should have been.
Sage needed someone to talk to. The only one who knew about him and Rowen was Cye. Maybe Cye would know what to do to get Rowen back. Sage thought as he slowly drifted off to sleep on the subway.
