Love Never Dies
Chapter 6
"I can't remember you"
Yuki nervously got into his car and heaved a big sigh. Spacing out here and there, he finally started the car and adjusted his mirror and looked into it. His golden eyes looking back at his own.
But why was his vision blurred? He raised a hand to his eye and found he was shedding tears. Shuichi definitely was everything to him and he would stop at nothing to make him remember and love him again.
"I swear," Yuki said to his reflection, "that if Shuichi remembers me I'll treat him the way he deserves and give him the love he's been denied for so long."
Yuki looked away and stared out his windshield and grasped the wheel. It was now or never.
Shuichi stirred and raised his head a bit and looked around, realizing what the noise was, plopped his head back down and groaned.
"Hiro…" Shuichi muttered and Hiro didn't hear him, "HIRO!" Shuichi yelled as loud as he could when Hiro looked up and shut off the vacuum.
"What?" He asked and looked over at Shuichi, "What's the deal with vacuuming at nine in the morning?" he asked sitting up in bed, staring angrily at the guitarist.
Hiro smiled, "Oh, I'm having a friend over." Shuichi wanted to ask who but Hiro turned on the vacuum and continued what he was doing.
Shuichi yawned and sat up, no use in trying to fall back asleep. He sat there with lazy eyes and stared blankly around the room when he heard Hiro's doorbell go off. Apparently Hiro didn't hear since he was in the other room.
Shuichi didn't want whoever was at the door to wait so long, even though he wasn't allowed out of bed. Shuichi thought it over, oh well just this once…
Shuichi swung his legs over and stumbled a bit when trying to stand up and walk forward. He grasped a hold of the door and opened it to see a serious faced man with blonde hair and golden eyes. Hmm, he's seen him somewhere before.
Yuki just looked at Shuichi, he was so hot in just short shorts and a baggy tank top. But he noticed he look very tired and weak, what was Hiro doing to him??
"Um hi, are you here to see Hiro?" Shuichi asked and Yuki just looked at him for a moment, "Yeah." Was all he said when he noticed Shuichi losing his balance and Yuki dove in and caught him.
"Hey you perv, put me down!" Shuichi angrily yelled over the sound of the vacuum. Yuki swept Shuichi off his feet and set him back in bed.
"You have some real issues." Shuichi said and slapped Yuki's hand away. Yuki was mentally shocked by this, Shuichi was totally different, maybe this visit was just a lost cause.
Yuki took a seat next to him and looked at floor, wondering what to say or do.
Shuichi looked up at the blonde and he suddenly felt his stomach fill with butterflies, what was going on? This is a GUY! EWW! NO!
Hiro entered the room, seeing Yuki and Shuichi immediately looking at him, a little bit startled.
"Yuki you're here? Did you let yourself in?" Hiro asked
"No, Shuichi got the door." He said looking at Shuichi.
Hiro growled and approached the bed, "Shuichi…" he began and Shuichi gulped and his violet orbs grew bigger as he hid himself under the blankets slowly, "You're suppose to stay in bed! Keyword: bed." Hiro said sternly
"I know, but you were busy and I didn't want to keep the person at the door waiting, I'm sorry." Shuichi muffled through the blankets and Hiro chuckled, "It's ok, just don't do it again."
Shuichi took a big sigh and remained underneath the blankets, silence filled the small room and Yuki continued to stare at Shuichi till he felt a tap on his shoulder, and he snapped his head up and looked at Hiro.
Hiro motioned for Yuki to follow him, leaving a confused Shuichi who just came out from underneath the blankets behind.
They walked into the small kitchen area, but Hiro motioned for him to come even closer, knowing Shuichi he would some how over hear and he didn't want him to.
"Now, I don't want to scare Shuichi but let's slowly try and remind him of whom you are, he's my best friend and I know how happy he was with you." Hiro whispered and Yuki thought, "Was"
"Whatever, how long do you think it will take?" Yuki asked but all Hiro did was shrug, "The doctor told me it was a fluke that Shuichi remembered me so fast, I think he remembered an important event between us which jogged his memory, which would be the blue jello box."
Hiro took a breath to continue but stopped short and looked at Yuki who was as lost as hell.
"Never mind, just what did you bring with you today?" Hiro wanted to change the subject.
Yuki looked down at his jacket and reached inside the inner pocket and pulled out a video tape and an envelop.
"I brought a home movie Shuichi made when he first got that damn video camera and some pictures of us together." Yuki said blankly and handed the stuff to Hiro who blinked a few times and just stood there.
Yuki reached in his back pocket and got out a cigarette and brought it to his lips and was about to light it when Hiro snatched the lighter away.
"Hey, what the f-" Yuki muffled with the cigarette in his mouth when Hiro cut him off, "Hey I don't like people smoking in my apartment, I'm sorry." Hiro stated and handed the lighter back while Yuki put the cigarette away, "Whatever" He said and turned back to the room where Shuichi was.
When Hiro reentered the room, Shuichi yawned while Yuki took his seat next to Shuichi.
Hiro walked over and sat on the end of the bed and handed Shuichi the envelop.
Shuichi's eyes perked up, "What's this?" He asked but didn't get a reply from either of the guy so he just opened it. They were pictures of him with the blonde man sitting next to him. In the pictures he was smiling but the blonde guy was frowning. But he remembered when he looked at the pictures with him and Hiro the memories instantly flooded back but now…his mind was blank…he remembered nothing…not even a single memory.
"Hey you" Shuichi turned his head to look at Yuki, "Um where were these pictures taken? Are we friends or something?" Shuichi asked but the guy looked pissed off more than anything, "Those pictures were taken at Bad Luck parties and yes were friends, but a little more than that." Yuki spat out and Shuichi nodded, "It's weird I don't remember but what's with my best friend and you telling me I'm gay?" Shuichi said rudely, looking at the both of them.
Hiro's eyes widened and Yuki's mouth slightly hung open.
"What the hell?!" Yuki glared at Hiro who just looked at him and put his arms in the air, "Hey don't blame me! I didn't do anything!" He squeaked, Yuki turned his gaze back to Shuichi.
"Did you ever stalk me?" Shuichi asked out of curiosity.
That was the last straw for Yuki.
"Stalk you? Um if I recall which you won't, you practically stalked me and never left me alone." He said coldly and Shuichi glared, "Why would I stalk a guy like you, that's just weird." Shuichi rolled his eyes and stared at Hiro in front of him.
"Good question, maybe you should tell me sometime." Yuki said and turned away.
Hiro thought now was a good time to cut in, "He's telling the truth Shuichi, this guy here is your boyfriend, and you really do care about him, don't you?" Hiro asked calmly
Shuichi sighed and looked at the guy, "Look I don't remember you, so I guess you're not my boyfriend and I can't care for someone I don't know." Shuichi said quietly and Yuki just took it all in slowly.
Hiro knew Yuki was emotionally broke at this point and decided to leave the room for a while, "I'll be right back." Hiro said and got up and headed out the door.
Shuichi watched him leave and turned to see that weird guy looking at him intently.
"Oh shit" Shuichi thought, "My best friend left me with the psycho guy! HIRO!" Shuichi screamed in his mind when he noticed the guy was crying.
"Shuichi…" Yuki whispered and Shuichi just stared into his eyes, somewhere he felt so guilty and wished he knew what was going on.
"I'm sorry, please leave." Shuichi closed his eyes when he felt warm lips on his. A sensational chill went down his spine and he felt his heart melt- wait what the fuck? A GUY IS KISSING ME!!
Shuichi forcefully pushed the manic away and Yuki didn't expect what was coming next.
SMACK!
Yuki's face turned sharply to the left and he just stayed there and brought his hand to his cheek, which was warm and red. He never knew Shuichi had it in him; he never hit him even if he was just playing. Not only did his cheek hurt his heart felt like it was shattered into a million pieces.
The tears came even more and Shuichi glared, "Get out." Yuki got up and looked at him once last time and left without a word.
