Taichi stumbled backwards.
"What?" he asked his voice shaking slightly.
"I love you" Yamato offered weakly.
"You fucking fag!" Taichi screamed.
Yamato's jaw dropped.
"Prick, you go
around messing with my head, I let you touch m- I can't
believe-!"
Taichi spat out, his voice dripping with venom. He couldn't even
form a complete thought.
Yamato grabbed his bag and ran towards the door.
Taichi stepped forward and slapped Yamato.
Hot tears streamed down Yamato's face as he ran away from his friend.
He hitched a ride back to Heighten View
Terrace with a truck driver he
realized how upset he was and
didn't ask questions. He pretended to sleep
just in
case.
"Thanks" Yamato said quietly hopping out of
the truck as it pulled up in
front of his house. He ran inside
and straight to his room like a ten year
old who had been
scolded.
"Yama?" Takeru asked.
'Shit.I forgot about Takeru.'
He ignored him and slid down the wall, pulling
his knees up to his chest
and hiding his face.
"Yama, what's wrong?" Takeru asked, rolling off the bed to his brother.
"Leave me alone" he mumbled trying not to start crying again.
"You told Taichi didn't you?" Takeru asked knowingly.
'How the hell did he know how I felt
about Taichi?' he though but nodded
anyways.
Takeru's slender form was soon comforting Yamato.
"What did Taichi
say to you?" Takeru asked when Yamato still wouldn't look
up.
Yamato just shook his head and felt Takeru lifting it.
"Oh my god." Takeru said seeing the marks Taichi
had made when he slapped
Yamato. He picked Yamato up and placed
him on his bed. "I'm so sorry Yama.."
He pulled a
blanket over him remembering how easily his brother got cold.
"It's going to be ok you know." Takeru said heading for the door.
"No it's not.nothing is ok"
Takeru shook his head and walked out of his brother's bedroom.
Yamato shook violently, not
being able to get warm. Taichi had always been
there to warm him
up, either by putting his arms around his shoulders or
with an
extra sweater, it didn't matter, he had been there and now he
wasn't.
A thought suddenly hit him, Kaya was Taichi's
girlfriend. Oh how Yamato
hated her.stupid little bitch.
Takeru
came in every so often to check on Yamato, he kept bringing food
which Yamato didn't eat and wet rags for his face which he didn't
use.
A few times Yamato heard Takeru on the phone. More than
once he heard his
name being dropped.
"Yeah, Yamato
will be fine..Daisuke acted the same way when I told him,
remember?"
there was a brief pause and a chuckle. "Yeah, Aishiteru mo, yeah
yeah, tell Daisuke I say Aishiteru too."
'Ahh!' Yamato thought 'So Takeru is gay too'
He figured since he wasn't going to sleep he would go outside.
Yamato stood up, still shaking and walked outside.
He was freezing but he
needed to think, of something, anything other than
Taichi. The
only thing he could think of was Taichi, the way he had hit him.
As
if the words hadn't been enough.
"Yamato?" came a familiar voice.
Moki :Well, we all know who that is!
Yamato: How could you make Taichi do that!
Taichi: Yeah! is clinging to Yamato I'm gay too!
Moki: SHH! Review everyone!
