DISCLAMER: I don't own anything.
Heiji got out of bed with a groggy muttering of curses, "god damnit, its fucking 8:00, I'm gonna be fuking late. Fuck." He stumbled out of bed and into his school uniform, fist putting his pants on backwards then having to turn them around again. "I hate school," he sighed slightly and ran his hand through his hair, glancing at a picture he had taken of Shinichi off guard, he was laughing and twirling soccer ball on his finger. "Well, I guess there is one thing worth going for." He grabbed his bag and hurried out the door, not bothering with breakfast.
He got to school with ten minutes left in first period, his only period where he sits next to Shinichi. As he sat down after explaining to his teacher he looked at Shinichi, all other things from that day just disappearing. "Hi, Kudo." Shinichi didn't even look at him, or respond. Inside Heiji felt his guts tighten, he fought tears and looked out the window. Maybe he doesn't remember, he did drink three bottles of sake last night, it's not fair! Can't he just pretend I'm alive, is that so hard to do? His thoughts stopped when he felt a warm hand on his leg under the desk. He turned to Shinichi with a questioning look. It was returned by a sideways glance and a smirk. Heiji smiled and looked down at his desk as Shinichi's hand grew bolder and massaged his inner thigh. With slight hesitation Heiji slowly moved Shinichi's hand away from his leg. "Not in class!" he hissed. Shinichi raised his eyebrows and turned his attention back to the teacher until the end of class.
As the bell rang Heiji felt a strong grip on his arm, keeping him from moving forward through the crowd of students. "Come with me" Shinichi pulled Heiji down the hall toward the exit doors. Where are we going? Are we leaving, it's only after first period, crap if I go they will call my mom, but if I tell Shinichi no..." Heiji was cut short by a hard kiss from Shinichi, it went as quickly as it was given, and Heiji was pushed into the passenger side of a beat up red car. Shinichi went around to the drivers side and started the car, Heiji felt himself tense, what is he thinking?
"Shinichi, where are we going?" The said boy looked over and smiled softly, Wow, he smiled at me! That's the first time...normally he just smirks. I wonder what that means.
Shinichi reached over and put his hand on Heiji's knee and squeezed, "That's a surprise." Heiji held his breath until the hand was removed, and looked out the window, slightly disappointed it hadn't continued its earlier activities. I am not that fond of surprises, I like to know what's going on. I NEED to know what's going on. Maybe he wants to fool around. I don't know if that's a good idea though, he is still going out with Ran. Heiji's mind wandered as the buildings began to become scarcer and more trees took over the passing scenery. God, where are we.
Shinichi watched his passenger as he looked out the window; it was evident that he was falling asleep. He snorted softly and resumed watching the road. I hope he likes his surprise.
Heiji woke when he felt someone shaking his shoulders lightly. "Wake up Heiji; I want to show you your surprise." Did he just call me Heiji? With a muttering of questions he opened his eyes and yawned. "Are we there yet?" Shinichi smiled again at Heiji but caught himself before Heiji saw, with a cough he got out of the car and opened the passenger side door. "Come on, I want to show you something." The confused boy got out of the car, following his companion down an overgrown forest path. What the hell?
Heiji's eyes wandered from the path quite a few times, to look around the cathedral like forest, so he often found himself losing his footing. It's so big and old, I almost feel like I am being watched, and the trees, they loom, not unlike a skyscraper, but much more beautiful. This place is full of beauty. He looked at the tall boy leading him as he thought this. He is like one of those trees. Powerful, and wise, I want him to teach me everything he knows, he seems so figured out, as if he already knows what is going to happen in his life, unlike me, I'm always so confused by everything, although I want to know what is going on I can never really figure it out. Like now, I feel so helpless here, what is going to happen, what does Shinichi have planned? How does he feel, what does he think? I know nothing about him even though I have spent every day of the time I have known him trying to figure him out. He was lost inside his thoughts so far that he did not see the tree that happened to be in the middle of the path, and being unaware of this, he walked straight into it. "FUCKING TREE! WHY THE FUCK DID YOU HAVE TO BE THERE!" Heiji fought the tears that were threatening to fall as he clutched his pained nose.
"Hattori, the tree can not hear or respond to your angry curses, so please, stop shouting. Anyway, we are almost there" Heiji wiped at his eyes and kicked the tree, wincing at the pain of the contact, Stupid tree. Hattori? Maybe he didn't call me Heiji earlier. I could have just heard it when I was half sleeping. The pain in his nose turned into a dull throb and he ran to catch up with Shinichi. "Now Hattori, be quiet, really quiet, or it will all be ruined." Nodding Heiji took another step but Shinichi stopped him, taking out a blindfold he tied it around Heiji's eyes and took his arms. Slowly advancing forward Heiji counted the steps they took until they stopped. 15, 16, 17- As they came to a stand still, Shinichi walked around behind Heiji, and whispered in his ear "Do not say a word, don't make a noise. Not until I say it is okay." Shinichi slowly untied the blindfold and let if fall to the ground, suppressing a gasp, Heiji looked around. They were in a small circular clearing, and the trees around them were completely covered in monarch butterflies.
"When I count to three, shout hello as loud as you can." Heiji nodded.
"One."
"Two"
"Three"
With his loudest voice, he yelled the word hello and suddenly all the butterflies took flight around them, Heiji gasped and smiled. He felt Shinichi's strong arms wrap around him from behind, he rested his head on Heiji's shoulder and whispered in his ear, although whispering was no longer necessary, "Do you like your surprise." Wiping a tear that had managed to fall he turned in Schinichi's arms and kissed him, wrapping his arms around his neck in the process. I love you.
AN: I want to see a millions flying butterflys...gawr! Anyway, thanks for your comments I will write more soon, sorry for this ones lateness. Till next chapter. Peace and Kumquats.
