Here's the fic: ~*~*~*~
Clothes wrinkled, hair disarrayed, Eiri ran through the streets, no longer bothering to keep up his cool, sophisticated appearance. It didn't seem important to him anymore. No thing seemed more important to him than finding that pink haired idiot. No, not idiot, Shuichi Shindou. He was the one that mattered more to Eiri than anything else in his life, at the moment. He would find Shuichi, or he would die trying. He didn't want to exist any longer if he couldn't be with Shuichi.
Eiri chuckled darkly to himself. Funny that he would be talking about death like this, especially since he had struggled so much to narrowly escaped it not hours before. However, he was not aware that he would be returning to a pain filled life. If he could just find Shuichi, it would all be worth it because the pain would stop and he would be able to live again.
"Shuichi!" Eiri screamed, ignoring the stares that he earned from all the people around him, as he continued to speed along the streets, blindly searching for the one he loved without a clue to guide him. Not having any idea where Shuichi would be didn't bother him though, because he didn't need directions to lead him, he was following his heart.
Run, run, run, huff, huff, huff. Eiri had been searching for hours now and still no sign of Shuichi. Finally forcing himself to slow down a bit, he looked around, allowing his surroundings to sink. As he stood there, hands on his knees, trying to catch his breath, old memories began to surface.
Eiri had wound up on the same path where he had first met Shuichi. It was in this park, they had met and it was here that Shuichi used to come whenever he felt overly stressed and even on a few occasions, they had come together, to try to forget about their hectic lives. So many memories, some were good, but for the most part, the memories ended in Eiri rather getting angry at Shuichi or he had simply gotten fed up and left Shuichi in the park, alone. How could he have been so cruel to someone that he had loved so much? It was not right.
Straightening back up, Eiri returned to his search, but this time at a much slower pace. Shuichi might be around and it would not do to miss him because he was not paying attention to his surroundings. He looked high and low. He checked every spot that Shuichi might be, even the small forest that Shuichi had liked to cut across to save time when he was in a hurry. However, there was not a single trace that the singer was there and he gave up.
Maybe Shuichi headed into town instead. Eiri turned and picked up speed as he ran off in pursuit of his ex-lover. How he would be able to find him in a huge city crowded with thousands of people was anybody's guess.
By this point, all forms of rational had left Eiri's mind and a raw need had taken their place, besides, how hard could it be to find someone with bright pink hair? There's no way he wouldn't stand out like a sore thumb.
Eiri found himself in town in record time. Looking around, he realized a flaw in his plan. 'Why the hell do so many people have pink hair?' he wondered to himself sarcastically, and it was true. For some unknown reason, there were several bright pink heads bobbing up and down amongst the human traffic jam. All seemed to be in similar shades of pink as Shuichi.
Having no where better to go, Eiri started towards the NG building, maneuvering himself through the crowd. The building was big enough to be seen clearly from the edge of town, but looks were deceiving. It was much further than it appeared.
It seemed to take forever to get there and along the way, Eiri seeing images of Shuichi amongst the crowd, but when he slowed down to take a closer look, he would find himself staring at the faces of strangers.
Eiri leaned forward with his hands on his knees as he tired to catch his breath underneath the cool shade that the towering building provided. After a few short minutes, he straightened himself and walked into the main lobby, confident that he would find his missing lover there. He was greeted with the sight of Ryuichi running towards him at top speed screaming, "SHUICHI!!! You came back!!! I was so worried that you were sad!"
The singer came to a stop a meter in front of Eiri and his goofy smile instantly dissipated into a serious and menacing stare when Eiri's presence registered in his mind. "You. It was your fault that he was so upset wasn't it. Every time Shuichi looks sad, it's always cause of you."
Not listening to anything that Ryuichi had just accused him of, Eiri only heard the part about Shuichi being there. Turning around Eiri was ready to take off in search of Shuichi again, sure that he was nearby, but before he could take a step, Ryuichi grabbed his wrist with bruising force and pulled him back.
Ryuichi's eyes were determined and focused as he stared directly into Eiri's soul and told him, "You're not going after him. Tohma told me what happened between you and Shuichi. You are not going to hurt him any longer. I won't let you."
