The twins first morning apart started quite differently. Kouichi went through all his usuall morning routines a bit more sluggishly than usual. The idea of not seeing his brother later making him feel depressed. Kouji on the other hand slept in and when he did finally get up didn't even realise where he was until he was getting ready to meet his brother. The sadness that he had been too stubborn to acknowledge last night returned. Kouichi was back in Shibuya and he was in Odaiba.

Kouichi wasn't fairing much better. They wouldn't be able to see eachother for atleast a couple more weeks and Kouji still hadn't called him like he promised. Could Kouji have already settled in so soon? Would he really be happier in another town away from everything he knew?

" Kouichi, you're going to be late for school."

" I'm leaving now mom, thanks!"

Kouji reached into the hidden pocket of his backpack and pulled out a small pocket knife. This was the only thing his father hadn't managed to find when he was going through his sons stuff. Flipping it open he felt his muscles starting to relax already. What was everyone so worried about? He wasn't trying to kill himself, all he did was make the pain go away.

He pulled up his sleeve to make another addition to his growing collection but stopped before he could put enough pressure. That wouldn't be a good idea, his aunt would be checking to make sure he wasn't doing anything. Pulling down his sleeve he instead opted for right around his ankle. It seemed to be the best place, his aunt wouldn't check there and it would be covered by both his socks and his pants. He applied pressure and pulled the blade across his skin. The only sound he made was a slight hissing noise, he would have to get use to this new kind of sting.

" Hey Kouichi!" Izumi waved, " Over here!" Everyone usually met by the gate and he was always the last one to get there.

" Hi everyone," a fake smile plastered on his face. It would be worse if everyone was worried.

" Kouichi, whats up with Kouji? He's never this late." The goggle head of the group asked. It was expected though since he had been best friends with the younger twin. Lucky for Kouichi though the bell rang and saved him from answering.

" Bye," was the only thing he said as he took off for his first period class.

" Kouji, are you in there? I want you to come out and meet your cousin. He's going to help you register because I need to go to work."

" In a second Aunt Rika!" Putting his pocket knife securely back in place, he made sure there was no evidence of his activities and opened the door. "I'm ready to go Aunt Rika."

" Good, good. Ken!" The woman called out to her son, and Kouji was suprised when he walked through the door. Just from looking he could tell they were related. The had the same color of hair, and the same dark eyes. But his cousins eyes, they were more like Kouichi's.

" Nice to meet you, I'm Ichijouji Ken." The other boy bowed.

" Minamoto Kouji, " He did the same.

" Now boys no need to be so formal, you're family. Better get going so you won't be late." She gave them both a gental push out the door. "Have a good first day Kouji!"

Bound: Okay so I didn't really go as far as I wanted to, but that's because I am really bad with long chapters. Plus I know my writing can be boring so best not to load a whole bunch on you at one time, right? Well please review!

Next chapter (hopefully): Kouichi gets confronted by Izumi and Takuya, Kouji meets all of Ken's friends, the twins finally call eachother.
