Utsukushii Kioku

By: Falcon Darkstar



Author's Notes: Thank you for all of the reviews. I honestly didn't expect to get any. I've been doing some thinking about this story all day, and I've come to the conclusion that it will be a long one. I'd say about in the range of 20 chapters. And for the people who want to know *glares at Wildefyre* the chapters will be longer. I just wanted to get that out and see what it did. Well, here's chapter two.

Disclaimer: Don't own them, but would like to. The bright purple yaoi flags are flying high in this story, so consider yourself warned.



Jimonjitou (Questions)



~ "Um, sir, would you like paper or plastic?" ~

A multitude of thoughts flooded Touma's head. He couldn't believe that the guy he dreamt about was standing here in front of him. He shook his head, then looked up at the man before him. His gaze quickly plummeted to his shoes.

"Sir, are you alright?" Seiji asked him.

"Ye-yes, I'm fine. I just lost my breath their for a second," Touma replied with a blush.

"I know that feeling, trust me on that one..." Seiji muttered under his breath.

"What was that?"

"Oh, nothing. Just talking to myself."

"Oh. Plastic."

"What?"

"I would like plastic. Isn't that what you asked me just a little while ago?" Touma countered with a chuckle.

"Oh..." was all that Seiji could say. He would have said more, but was too preoccupied with trying to open the plastic bag that was being stubborn. Suddenly, he felt a pair of smooth hands slide over his own, and helped him open the bag.

"That's the only bad thing about plastic bags, they like to grab onto one another, and stay that way," Touma said with his hands still covering Seiji's.

"Yea, I know..." was all that Seiji could say.

It seemed like an eternity had passed, but it was only a matter of seconds. The two stood their looking at each other until something loud and annoying interrupted their gaze.

"Seiji! What the hell are you doing! You have more customers waiting. Stop staring and work!" Kenji yelled from behind the two. Seiji jerked his hands away from Touma's and immediately threw the turkey into the bag.

"Do you have a Customer Cashback Card?" a flustered Seiji asked.

"Oh, yeah, it's in my pocket. Give me a second," Touma responded, and proceeded to look in his pocket. While he was doing that, Seiji took a piece of paper, wrote his number on it, and threw it into the bag with the turkey. "Here it is."

Seiji swiped the card, and handed it back to Touma. After letting his hand linger in Touma's he spoke, "Have a good day. Please come again."

"Thanks," Touma replied. And with that, he left the building and went to his car.

*What the hell is going on. I come for turkey, and I walk out with hard salami! I can't believe that was they guy from my dream. That's so creepy. I should've got some liquor while I was in there. It would give me a reason to go back in there. No! Food! Need food! Test for Teaching tomorrow. That's all I need, walk in drunk to take a test to educate others. Go Hashiba! Smooth one ace!*

Touma contemplated the events at the store the whole way home and even when he got to his house.

*Eat now, think later.*

Once again, Touma took all of the stuff out of the refrigerator, and went to take the turkey out of the bag. When he did, he found something that he wasn't expecting.

730-5487- Seiji's cell. Please call. It'd mean a lot to me.

*Oh, sweet mother of all that is henta-erm...holy. He gave me his cell number?! When the hell did the do that? Am I going to call? I'm not gay, at least I don't think I am. I'm jumping to conclusions though. What if he's not gay either, he just wants to hang out. Yeah, get real Touma. He's not gay and I'm Mary, Queen of Scots. What in the world and I'm going to do?*

A growl from his stomach answered that question. After he made his rather large sandwich, Touma went into the den and sat by the phone, thinking of what to do.

*Am I seriously going to call this guy that I just met...at the grocery store no less. I mean, I don't know if he's some kind of rapist or something. Why am I attracted to him in the first place. I mean, I'm not gay. At least, I don't think I am. Am I gay at not knowing it? Well, I'll just have to find out. If there's one person that knows more about me than myself, it's gotta be Terran! That crazy bitch knows more about me than anybody.*

Touma picked up the phone and pressed the first speed dial. The phone rang three times before someone answered, but the impatient Touma was on the edge of his seat.

"This is God, how may I help you?" Terran answered.

"Funny... Terran," Touma replied flatly. " I really don't have time for jokes; I need to ask you a serious question.

"Well, you know that God...er I mean I'm here to solve all of your problems Tou."

"Terran, I'm really being serious here!" whined Touma.

"So was I."

Touma ran an hand through his hair and attempted to explain his dilemma to his best friend.

"Well, you know that paper we're supposed to write for the English part of the Teacher's Test?"

"Yea, what about it?"

"Well, I was at the park today, and I started to drift off, I guess you could call it that."

"And?"

"Well, I started to daydream, and what I dreamt about was weird, make that really weird."

"If you don't stop beating around the bush and come out with it, I'm going to beat you!"

"ACK! Sorry, well, I kinda sorta dreamtaboutaguywhoIthoughtwascute."

"Yo-you...did...wh..at?" Terran asked puzzled. "Did you just say you dreamt about some guy, and you also said he was...oh Gods."

"Terran, please don't get freaked out. I think I'm gay though."

"...EeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Oh my GODS!!! Do you know what this means?! Eeeee~ This means, like, we can go shopping together, and like, I can finally play with like, your hair, and and and and...!" She paused to breathe, but not for long. "And we can have sleep overs and we can check out guys together and we can watch my yaoi anime together and and and I can show you my doujinshi collection finally and and...!"

"TERRAN! WAIT A SECOND! So you mean you're not like all pissed at me or anything?"

"HA! Hells no! This is like so cool! Just think of all the things we can do...we can,"

"Before you start up again, I have to tell you more." Touma replied hastily.

"You mean there's more!?" Terran said with excitement in her voice.

"Well, it's kinda weird. The guy that I dreamt about, it turns out that he works at the Quick Shop around the corner from my house."

"Get your jacket! I'll be there in 20."

"But you live two towns over!"

"That does not matter to God. I can do all! See you!"

Touma hung up the phone, and started to get ready to go.





Author's Note: Well, I hope you like it. And about my new character. Well, that's a cameo role by my uber-best friend Terran. She's on ff.net too, her name's Shinigami Love. Expect the next chapter soon. Ja ne.
