Character's Thoughts

Chapter Five: A Loner

I was woken up by a loud noise crashing outside of my bedroom door and suddenly a heavy weight landed on top of me. I blinked wearily and opened my eyes; they slowly focused on a pair of emerald orbs, sparkling with a hint of amusement in them.

I yelped and kicked the intruder to the floor.

"Oh damn it! That hurt!"

I had only then realized that the voice cursing now and then in the background belonged to Yohji who was laying sprawled out on the floor, his hand on his head as he glared up at me.

"Yohji! What…what are you doing in my room!?" I glanced at my clock to notice it was still early in the morning as I flopped back down onto my bed. "Its early. Plus it's the weekends and I don't have to work. I want to sle…."

I never got to finish my sentence before I was carried off of the bed by a pair of arms under me. "Yohji you stupid angel! Put me down you fool." I cursed and struggled; pulling at a few strands of blonde hair in a vicious grip before Yohji finally dumped me onto the cough and crawled on top of me.

I froze. My heart was beating so fast I thought it was going to burst out of my ribcage any minute.

Yohji must have seen the shock in my face as he grinned down at me in mischief and leaned closer until he was brushing his lips on mine as he spoke. "Well are you awake now sweetie? Need my breakfast for the day and there's nothing I want to eat in here so you will just have to do for now."

"Stop. Yohji! Get off me please."

The blonde paused back to think for a moment, considering my plea but then he laughed and tightened his arms around me. "Ummm…. nope. Sorry no can do." Then he locked both of our lips together and kissed me passionately.

For a moment I was going to yank the blonde's hair to stop him but once more it felt so good to be in his arms, that I was lost to the burning sensation he was making me feel. Unconsciously I started kissing him back, our bodies shifted closer together until we fitted so perfectly against each other on the couch.

Then the warmth faded and once again I was forced to break out of my dream and open my eyes, focusing on Yohji hovering on top of me. A hand suddenly reached down to brush the crimson bangs on my forehead, as the blonde slowly shifted away, a sense of regret overcame me as I wished to be in his arms again.

"Yohji?"

But before I could utter another word I saw the blonde dashing back into my room, searching through my closet. "What…what are you doing? Get away from my room you stupid angel!"

"We're going out today. Didn't I tell you sweetie?

"No."

Yohji pulled out a pair of black faded jeans and a purple sweater as he started pulling the shirt I was wearing over my head. "Stop you idiot! Don't touch me!"

"Hey I'm helping you getting changed, you needn't be so rude about it." Then he raised both of my arms and slipped the sweater over my head. I protested and struggled against him, telling the moron I could manage perfectly well to change myself.

Then I saw that lustful grin on his face as he shifted his head closer to me. "Mmmm…now we just need to get those damn pants off. Need any help Rannie?"

"NO!"

I shoved him out of my room, slamming the door in his face as I locked it firmly behind me. Talk about an irritating angel, and I had wanted to get a few more hours of sleep as well. I glanced at the pants that the blonde had dropped just a few minutes ago and sighed.

Guess it wouldn't hurt to go out now, would it?

*    *    *    *    *    *    *

"Yohji we are NOT watching that."

"Come on Rannie. It's nothing you and I haven't seen before. I mean just naked sweaty bodies humping against each other and little moans and gasps…"

"STOP IT!" I knew I was blushing like hell as I tried to hide away from the amount of stares we were receiving from several passers-by. I can't believe we are going to watch…watch…oh my god. We are definitely not!

Then I heard a deep chuckle beside me and turned around to see Yohji bursting out laughing, trying so hard not to smile, clutching at his stomach as he gasped for breath. It was then I realized he was playing a joke on me when I saw what movie he was referring to instead.

"Hey hey. You sure were freaked out love. I was just exaggerating. I mean, pplleeasse it's one of those sappy romance movie, the ones where they declare they will love each other till death does them part, that sort of stuff."

The blonde then snaked his arm around my waist pulling me closer to him. He chuckled once again as I glared up at him, my hands threatening to strangle the baka.

"Well we could go and buy ourselves a video camera and record our own little sexual fantasy, I'm sure I could think of a few wonderful positions to try."

"You…SHI-NE! I don't even know why I bother with you!!!" I ran off to buy the tickets as I tried to calm myself to avoid murdering the blonde in such a public area.

Do not kill. Do not kill.

Headache already forming, I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths as I hoped this day would end as quickly as possible.

Then again, isn't it better than staying at home by myself all the time?

*    *    *    *    *    *

"Shut up you stupid jock. They're going to hear us."

"I didn't do anything! You're the one that pushed me."

// Say that again ape and I'll strip you naked and tie you up in a tree. //

"SCHU..mmmpphh!"

// I said shut up! What part of that sentence you don't understand? //

"Let go of me. Oh he's putting an arm around Ran's shoulder! He's going to kiss him!"

// Oh for God sake, stop fidgeting and let me have a look you wimp. //

"What are they doing?"

"They're not even fucking yet. What are you so worried about?"

"Schu! We're in a cinema! People are looking at us."

The redheaded German glanced at the rest of the people looking disgustedly at them and snarled. Then suddenly, a flash of blinding pain ran across the brunette's head as Ken glares angrily at the telepath.

"Did you have to do that?"

Schuldig smiled at his handiwork and went back to observing the couple sitting a few seats in front of them. "Well it worked didn't it brat. Now no one is noticing us." Then he shifted his gaze and pulled the soccer fanatic towards him. "I've got us a plan, wanna try?"

Ken could only nod dumbly and listen.

*    *    *    *    *    *

"Oh boy, what a movie. If I were the guy, I would have been screwing her by now not talking about all this lovely dovey nonsense."

"Yohji…."

The movie hadn't been that bad. I actually felt sorry for the girl waiting for a lover that would never come to meet her. It made me think of myself after Aya's death when I would constantly stay inside the apartment, waiting for her to come home and tell me all about the wonderful things she had encounter that day. And I would just smile and listen to her chatter while I prepared her favorite meal.

Now, like that girl, I will continue waiting for someone that will never come back to me.

"Hey. Don't frown koi. You don't look pretty when you do that."

Surprisingly, Yohji took my hand and started leading me down the streets. I tried not to blush and notice the weird stares we were getting as I kept up with his pace but for some reason I didn't push him aside.

Why was it I let Yohji near me in the first place?

I continued to keep silent as I listened to the blonde rambling about all sorts of nonsense. Starting from the weather, to an old woman who was hitting someone with her walking stick, to a little kid that begged her parents to buy her, her favourite doll. Yohji kept talking and I kept listening. My life felt so perfect whenever I was near him. He didn't expect me to talk back nor did he need me to.

Instead his voice was always so soothing. It reminded me so much of Aya when she was still alive. Yet I knew deep inside, happiness will never last.

Yohji would have to return back to heaven sooner or later. Then, what would happen after that?

I'll just be by myself again.

*    *    *    *    *    *

"Okay now's the chance. While blondie is away, I'll distract him while you talk to Ran and tell him to come to our place for dinner since Brad insisted that the idiot should have a decent meal for a change."

"But what about Yohji?"

"I told you I'd fix that up. Just hurry up you dumb jock and get the hell out of here."

"All right. You own me this time Schu."

"Yeah whatever. Just go!"

Ken sighed as he disengaged himself from the bushes that he and Schu were hiding in. It had been terrible trying to remain quiet while following Ran and Yohji the whole day. All he wanted to do was go home and watch the soccer match that he had taped last night and have a good night's sleep.

But that didn't happen when your flat mate was Schuldig.

After Ran had left with the blonde at the shop, there had been this big debate to see if in fact the two men were actually lovers. Of course Schu being the annoying prick that he was, had bet that they were not. And had even maintained that Ran was only interested in him. Talk about a big egotist.

So now they had to track them down to see if Ran was indeed dating Kudou. Planning on coercing Ran over to dinner so Schu could molest the poor boy and also ask the man some serious question on how he suddenly decided to let the blonde live at his apartment, it just seemed overboard for a stupid bet.

The brunette has no idea how he let himself be convinced to come here in the first place. More than likely Schu must have messed with his mind. Although he sure didn't mind watching Ran…It was just he tended to get too nervous to have a decent conversation with the guy. And what's more, there was always something more important to look at rather than those beautiful amethyst eyes.

Ken blushed as he finally approached where Ran was sitting and wished to the Gods that Schu might know what he was doing.

*    *    *    *    *    *   

"Oh gosh is it busy today!"

"It's the weekend Yohji, that's why."

After the movie, Yohji had insisted we get something to eat but I wasn't hungry and also I was running out of money for this week. Meaning I needed to ask Brad for a few more shifts or maybe start looking for a second job.

"Hee. Well isn't it wonderful that you're spending it with me sweetie?" Yohji sat on the seat next to me as we watched some children playing near the lake, their laughter ringing loudly in my ears.

"I told you to stop calling me that."

"I'd stop if you'd let me kiss you."

I glared at him.

Yohji held his hands up and looked innocently at me as he smirked. "Okay okay, just asking. Hey I'll go and get us something to drink and tonight I am definitely forcing you to have dinner, I mean look at you, you're even skinnier than that tree over there…."
I didn't realize he had gone until I was seating there by myself, watching the afternoon sunlight hit the sparkling water.

Why am I so upset all of a sudden? What is this feeling I have at the moment?

"Ran!"

I turned around to see who had called me and saw it was one of our customers, Ken. Trying to figure out why the brunette would be here, I just nodded at him and continued staring into the water.

"Ummm….errr…so Ran. What…what are you doing here by yourself?"

Ken placed himself gingerly on the seat next to me, his eyes downcast as he fidgeted with his fingers. There was definitely something wrong.

"And what brings you here?" I asked.

Ken sighed and smacked himself on the head, muttering a few curses now and then. I tried not to notice his rash behaviour and wished Yohji would get back soon.

Suddenly Ken got up, starling me out of my thoughts and blurted, "Ran!AreyouandYohjigoingoutwitheachother?"

"Na…nani?"

I got up as well as I wondered if the brunette was okay. But before I could ask anything else, Ken tripped and fell on top of me and we landed onto the ground.

The breath was knocked out of me and I wheezed wearily, only to realize a pair of lips had descended on my own and our legs were tangled with one another. Then a pair of hazel eyes widened in disbelieved and Ken screamed in panic.

"ARGH!!!!"

And then he fainted.

*    *    *    *    *    *

"Hey there sexy. What are you doing on this fine day?"

Yohji turned around to see the telepath walking towards him. He smiled and placed his hand on his hips, adjusting his sunglasses as he glanced at the German who only grinned back.

"Having a little date with my skittish lover."

"Really now? And when has that occurred? I seem to have forgotten Ran ever mentioning you to me before. Or have I missed something?"

The blonde gritted his teeth and clutched the can of his drink tighter in his fist. If only he could break a couple of rules to get rid of his rival he would but then again, he'd be banned from going back to heaven if his supervisor ever found out. But then suddenly a loud scream was heard and both men looked up towards the sound.

"Aa shit! That dumb jock. Knew I couldn't trust him with it."

They both raced back to where the noise was coming from.

*    *    *    *    *    *

"Ken! Ken are you all right?"

I tried shifting and struggling to get the brunette off me but instead I found myself pressed even harder onto the grass. Oh god…what the hell was he doing? Why is everyone molesting me lately? First Yohji, then Schu and now Ken. What's next, Brad?

I shivered at that thought.

"RAN!"

I looked up to see Yohji hovering over me, concerned written in his face. Was he afraid something was going to happen? Then his face changed and astonishment and amusement lingered in his eyes.

"What the? Were you that desperate Ran?"

"YOHJI! GET. HIM. OFF. ME!"

The blonde laughed and grabbed Ken lifting him away from me as I struggled to sit up after the impact just moments ago. My vision was still slightly blurry. Who would have thought he could have fainted that easily?

"Hey kitten. Nice to see you're still in one piece."

Before I could realize who it was, Schu caught me in his arms and planted a small kiss on my lips.

"Now Ran seriously I had this conversation with you before, if you really want to get fucked, all you have to do was ask me. Though I sure wasn't expecting you to be that open. After all this is a pubic area unless you want to take up my offer…OUCH!"

Both Yohji and I yanked the red strands at the same time and shouted,

"PUT ME DOWN!"

"PUT HIM DOWN!"

"No way! He's mine you arrogant bastard!"

Schu started running away from Yohji, half carrying me as I cursed and struggled in his arms, strangers all looking at us weirdly.

"WHAT? Say that again! What am I going to do with this idiot?" Yohji started half dragging Ken along as he stormed after us.

I couldn't help but think how ridiculous we all looked. Two men bickering at each other, one carrying another in his arms and the other dragging an unconscious one on the ground.

I couldn't help myself and just laughed.

Yohji and Schu looked at me at the same time, astonishment written over their face. I chuckled, seeing the pair of them trying to figure out if I had a fever or something.

It made me laugh all the more.

And it feels good to laugh.

TBC~~~~~

Oh my, this chapter is so long! Very very sorry about that! I didn't mean to, I was trying to break it up but it didn't work that well. Hope you all like this chapter; the next one should be about dinner at Schu's place so more bickering between Yohji n him. Thanks for reading!
