The Bet
It was Saturday morning and Tai lay in his bed sound asleep. He had nothing to do today, so he slept in. He still lives with his parents, but they are both working so they can afford the money they needed. His sister Kari was always shopping on Saturdays with her friends. And Tai had the apartment for himself. At ten o'clock he got up and took a long shower. After that he ate breakfast and watched TV. When he didn't know what to do he thought about calling Matt. But then he remembered that Matt had to work this night and that he would be asleep to make it through the night. He thought a little more and finally he decided to call his friends.
"Hello?" answered a voice. "Leiji? It's me, Tai" Tai said. "Oh, hey, Tai. How are you?" "Fine, fine." "And?" Leiji asked. "And what?" Tai didn't know what the other boy wanted. "You know, this boy." "You mean Matt?" Tai asked. "That's his name? Sounds nice. Bet he's got a nice ass, too" Leiji smirked. "Leiji!" "What? Just said what I thought. Sorry. You met him yesterday, right?" "Yeah." "And?" "I kissed him." "Really??!!" "Yes, but..." "But what? What's wrong Tai? You kissed him. You can win this bet. Oh man, why am I encouraging him?" Leiji asked himself. "He tried to kill himself" Tai stated. "Oh, sounds bad.... You're not backing out, are you?" "No!!" Tai exclaimed. "Good. We meet today with the others? I'm sure they want to know what happened last night." "Of course", Tai said. "Okay, see you", Leiji hung up. "Bye."
Tai put the phone down.
"What have I gotten myself into?" Tai asked aloud.
He didn't want to lose the bet. It meant so much to him. But on the other hand he didn't want to hurt Matt more than the boy already was. Matt meant a lot to him even if he knew him for only a short span of time.
'What am I going to do?' thought Tai.
Tai met Shinji, Soichiro, Leiji, Hiroshi and Tetsuo at the park. The five other boys were waiting for him to arrive. When they saw Tai running down the street they looked up and grinned. Tai was sure Leiji had told them what he had told him this morning.
"Hey Tai" they all greeted at the same time. "Hi." "A little bird told us that you already kissed him" Soichiro didn't waste a minute. "Can't we sit down first?" Hiroshi asked. "Good idea. I walked all the way down here." Tetsuo said. "Okay, let's find a nice spot" Shinji said and walked away.
The others followed him and finally they found a place that satisfied them.
"Okay, where were we?" Soichiro said more to himself than to the others. "You asked if it was really true that Tai kissed that guy" Hiroshi helped. "Oh yeah, and, Tai?" "Yes, I kissed him, but it seems more difficult than I first thought" the brunet boy said, sighing heavily. "Why is that?" Hiroshi asked. "Didn't Leiji tell you guys?" Tai asked. "I forgot!" Leiji cried. "What?" Shinji asked. "That guy tried to commit suicide" Leiji answered. "I see... Where is the problem?" Soichiro asked, he really didn't see a problem. "Where is the problem?! He tried to kill himself because of another guy!! I don't want to be the reason he tries it again!!!" Tai cried
Matt meant too much to him. And he didn't want to be the one responsible for his dead.
"What will you do now? Think of your car" Tetsuo said.
But the boy didn't like the thought that Tai could kill that boy neither.
"I don't know. I really like him. Maybe I can win this bet without breaking up with him afterwards" Tai suggested. "No, that's not possible" Soichiro said. "What?" "Remember I phoned you Sunday evening?" Soichiro said. "Yeah..."
~~~~~~~ "Hey, Tai?" "Soichiro why are you calling so late?" Tai asked a little sleepy. "We have decided that we want another rule." "What is it then?" "We want you to break up with this guy right after you win or loose." "What? Why?" "We don't want you to spend all your time with this guy. We want to have things back like they were before we started with this bet." "But-" "No, Tai. You accept the rules or you'll lose your car, remember? We decided that it's the best that way" Soichiro said. "Okay..." ~~~~~~~
They talked some more and Tai tried to convince him, that noting would change if he stayed with Matt. But they didn't listen to him and kept telling him that it would be better that way.
"I have to go home now. Mom is waiting" Tai said and got up. "You are not mad at us, are you, Tai?" his best friend Tetsuo asked. "...No, you guys are my best friends" Tai said and walked home.
"Poor Tai. He seems to really like this guy" Tetsuo said. "Matt" Leiji said. "What?" "The guy. His name is Matt and yes, Tai really likes him. When he phoned me this morning he sounded really happy. I hadn't heard him so happy since I don't remember when" Leiji said, looking after Tai sadly. "Oh come on, don't give me that crap. He's only playing that he likes him. He feels pity for that guy, because he tried to kill himself and has to work to support himself. Tai doesn't love him!" Soichiro nearly shouted. "What makes you so sure?" Hiroshi asked calmly.
He too had seen the change in Tai and had liked it.
"You know that it's Tai we're talking about, right? I mean that guy never had a relationship that lasted longer than a few weeks. He used his little mates and then went on with his life and left them behind." "But he might've changed" Tetsuo said. "No, not Tai" Soichiro insisted stubbornly. "I don't want to argue. Let's drop it" Shinji suddenly said.
The gang nodded and they didn't talk about Tai and Matt for the rest of the time they spend together.
Tai on the other hand couldn't stop thinking about how Soichiro was fighting against the fact he really liked Matt. Maybe it was even love for Tai.
'I can go and visit him. It's Saturday after all' Tai thought.
When he was home he told him mom that he would go out to visit a friend. The woman said that he should be back at twelve and then Tai left. After some minutes of walking he reached the 'Yume' where Matt was working.
"Here we go" Tai said to encourage himself.
He opened the door and stepped in.
