"So Little Kindness"
by Sainte Matthewe
AN: My one and ONLY shonen ai fic. I don't know whether it's finished or not. It just kind of is. It grew out of a string of incidents between my friend who plays Omi and myself, who often plays Schuldig. O_
Wide blue eyes stared after the young woman's retreating back. His jaw hung open. He simply could not believe what just happened. Just yesterday, she'd been in his arms, whispering sweet nothings in his ear. Now, today she… He blinked slowly, tears just beginning to rim his eyes.
Omi Tsukiyono recovered and turned back to the shop. Well, not really recovered. He simply closed his mouth and dragged himself back to work.
At last, the shop closed and he could fall apart in solitude. He collapsed in front of his computer, once more fighting back tears.
Oblivious to his precarious mental state, his instant message program suddenly flashed merrily at him:
Schuldtraum: Yo.
Omi sniffed, blinked and typed back.
Omitchan: Oh. Hello.
Schuldtraum: Long time no see… what's wrong?
Omitchan: Yeah… she broke up with me.
Schuldtraum: *piku* Really…
Omitchan: I should have seen this coming. How could I have been so blind? We were so happy…
Omitchan: Then, the other day, she asked me to cross-dress…
Schuldtraum: Ouch.
Omitchan: I told her I wasn't really comfortable with that…
Schuldtraum: *poke* Not that it's much different from what you usually wear. ^_~
Omitchan: ……
Omitchan: Anyways, I also told her I'd catch hell from my roommates if they caught me doing that.
Schuldtraum: Heh, ja…
Omitchan: But she continues, insisting that transvestites are sexy.
Schuldtraum: O.o
Omitchan: Yeah… And today… she…
Schuldtraum: Told you she's gay. Ouch, man.
The online conversation continued on as Omi mourned his ended relationship. Once his tears stopped, he sniffed again and typed.
Omitchan: Why do you put up with me? Everybody else says I whine too much.
Schuldtraum: Everybody whines. Even I do. ^_^
Omitchan: But it seems that's all I do. I haven't even met you face to face, but you're still a wonderful friend.
Schuldtraum: Are you going to get all sappy on me?
Omitchan: Hey, you're in the Tokyo area, right?
Schudtraum: Ja.
Omitchan: Do you want to go out sometime?
Schuldtraum: You know I'm a guy, right?
Omitchan: Yes. Do you want to go out?
