Chapter 7:
Yuki lay on the couch sleeping fitfully. He opened his eyes wearily…he was too tired to sleep. He had been writing all night since that dinner at Shuichi's. But it seemed like he had taxed himself too much. He got up and sighed, tired as he was he had to do something. Lying on the bed was no good; he couldn't even doze off decently. He opened the drawer to get the sleeping pills he kept for times like these…one would floor him and he could sleep for hours. The blades and other stuff caught his eye. He stared at them for a while and picked it all up. Deliberately he walked to the dustbin and chucked it in. smiling very slightly, he picked up the bottle and took a pill, before going to bed.
At least I did one good deed for the day.
------------------------------------------
A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lives have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
With all the miles that separate
You've disappeared now when I really love your face
I'm here without you baby
But you're still all mine all mine
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams……
"SHUICHI….CAN YOU HERE ME?" Hiro yelled yanking the ear phones off him. He was listening to 3 Doors Down…the song was really good…it seemed to fit. He snapped out of his gaze as he found himself staring into the barrel of a gun.
"Uh…K-san…what are we talking about?" Shuichi said before he could stop himself. The blonde looked like he was going to explode.
"WE ARE TALKING ABOUT YOU!" K pulled himself together. "The only work you've been doing here is writing songs for some of our bands. Well…Suguru, Hiro and I were thinking…how about getting Bad Luck back together again?"
Shuichi stared at them…"ALRIGHT! Lets go people…I haven't god all day! I have a son to pick up from the baby sitters. Hit it Hiro!"
Everyone sweat dropped. Hiro looked at his friend. "Shuichi…I'm glad you're so enthusiastic…but I really have to go now alright? Ayaka and I have something planned we can start tomorrow."
Shuichi nodded, he enthusiasm ebbing away. He wondered what he should do now…maybe he should go to that school he was thinking off enrolling Wan in. The sooner the kid had something to do, the better. He decided to visit the school.
------------------------------
Ritsumeikan primary school was a very nice place. It had a big playground and the teachers seemed really nice. He was glad that he could Wan into this school. He got into the car and drove off towards Miriya…his baby sitters house.
Wan came down with the girl and jumped into the car looking all happy. "Daddy, Miriya let me talk to Yuki! We had so much fun! We didn't talk for too long, I only said two sentences, and he was very sleepy daddy. He actually fell asleep on the phone and I screamed in his ear to wake him up!"
Shuichi smiled at his son. It was funny, considering he'd yelled in Yuki's ear himself…many times. His smile deepened as his son regaled him with the events of the day. Shuichi wondered how he would react about school…Nina had left him in a playschool, but this was the actual thing. Yes…he would be in kinder garden, but it was bound to be different.
They got home and finished four bags of pocky…more like Shuichi finished three and a half bags while Wan just ate half of one bag. After watching Bloopy reruns, they started working on dinner. Wan's role in the whole thing was to keep an eye on the stove and see that Shuichi didn't burn anything. It was Mac 'n' cheese night. After it was done, Shuichi gave Wan a bowl of it and sat down in front of him.
"Wan…I've got a surprise for you. You're going to be starting school the day after tomorrow. It's a nice school…lots of nice children and lots of new things to learn…" Shuichi got cut off at a shout from Wan.
"But I want to go see Yuki the day after tomorrow! He said he'd be fine by then! I don't want to go to school yet daddy!" Wan looked at his father, scrunching up his little face.
"School is more important Wan. You'll be back home in the afternoons and I promise you can go see Yuki then. If you want we can talk to Yuki about when he's free and set up a few days when you can see him in the afternoon, how does that sound?" Shuichi looked at his son, a slight plea in his eyes, hoping that Wan would agree.
Wan glared at his dad, before smiling suddenly. "Ok! But you have to promise to go speak to Yuki tomorrow!" Shuichi promised. How many times was he going to land up at Yuki's doorstep because of Wan? Shuichi realized he wanted to go to Yuki's house. Now he'd have an excuse. He tried to stop that direction of thoughts and focused on singing and playing with Wan. Tomorrow when he got to Yuki's he'd see what he could do.
