Miyavi was in a very strange situation. He couldn't stop thinking about the short blonde. In all his life, he had never had this much trouble forgetting a one night stand. Occasionally, he would have someone who honestly would not let him forget, but that was a completely different situation. Eventually the person would realize that Miyavi wasn't in it for a relationship and run off crying, never to be seen again. The guitarist had never really thought much about what happened to the people after, but this one was different. He seemed to only care about what happened to him. Ruki, on the other hand, seemed to be struggling to decide what he wanted. The blonde had cried openly in his arms in the middle of the street, and he honestly still hadn't found out what made the short man cry, but he bet anything it had something to do with him.
It hadn't been long after Miyavi had managed to calm the blonde down before Reita showed up. The built bassist actually had the worst timing ever, in Miyavi's opinion. He had calmed Ruki down enough to ask him what was wrong, but the only answer he got what soft lips on his own along with slightly wet skin against his as the blonde had been crying. The bassist had chosen that moment to find them, and honestly the bassist walking in on him and Ruki's moments was not working out well for Miyavi. As soon as Reita had seen Ruki kissing him, the bassist pulled Ruki away and hit Miyavi right in the middle of his nose.
Now, Miyavi was sitting in emergency with a broken nose, one short blonde worrying over him, and another stronger blonde glaring at him from across the room. Miyavi couldn't shake the feeling of fear off of him from the intensity of the other's glare. Ruki, on the other hand, was fussing over Miyavi for not keeping his head back far enough to stop the bleeding. There was an intense sharp pain in his nose from holding the now red cloth to it. Ruki was holding it for him since apparently Miyavi wasn't doing it 'right'.
"Takamasa, Ishihara?" Miyavi looked as the nurse called him, signalling that it was his turn. He stood up and walked over to the nurse. Ruki went to follow him. "You'll have to wait here. We have a lot of patients today, and there is no room for anyone who isn't hurt. Sorry," the nurse told Ruki. Miyavi seen the blonde pout, and he struggled not to smile, since it hurt when he did, but he was just so darn cute when he pouted. Miyavi shut his eyes. See? He never thought that about anyone else before, and now all of a sudden he was. Walking into a wall, Miyavi cried out. Maybe closing his eyes wasn't the best idea….
!~!
"Ruki, what are you doing?" Reita said quietly staring at the small blonde. Ruki looked over at the bassist and sighed. What was he supposed to tell his best friend? Oh, I know this guy is a player and a real jerk to people, but I think I really like him? Ruki could already imagine how well that would go through Reita. Next thing he'd know, Miyavi would be hanging upside down, getting the shit beaten out of him. Ruki didn't want that, so he kept his mouth shut. Reita, on the other hand, had different plans. He obviously wasn't going to let Ruki remain silent.
"You know he's just going to hurt you, Ru. There's no point. Get rid of him while you still can," Reita words hurt Ruki. Did he not trust his judgement? Sure, it was a little hard to believe that Ruki would want to be with such a player, but the short blonde was sure that there was more behind Miyavi than he let show. Ruki looked over at Reita. He really wanted to give Miyavi a try. Maybe things would be different, but he couldn't do it without his best friend's approval.
"Reita, please listen to me. I really like him. There's something different about him. I really want you to approve of letting me try this," Ruki told the other. He was surprised by how confident he sounded, since he didn't feel confident in the least. Watching Reita as he remained silent, tears gathered in Ruki's eyes. The other wasn't going to condone it. And why should he? There was nothing good said about the man of Ruki's eye. Reita had every right to be upset. But Ruki really wanted this. Sighing, Ruki realized that if he really wanted to do this, he would have to do it whether Reita liked the idea or not.
"Ruki, having any sort of relationship with him is stupid! You know that's not what he does. He does you one or two times and that's it. He's done. I don't want you to just become another number, Ruki. I know how that'll affect you, and I don't want that to happen." Ruki looked over at Reita in shock and anger.
"Who are you to tell me what will and won't hurt me? Look Reita, if you're so worried about me, then you can be the one I'll go to if it doesn't work out, but I want to do this, and I'm going to do this. No matter what you say," Ruki said as he stood up and walked away to see if Miyavi was alright.
!~!
It's not like Reita wanted to take over Ruki's life. That was far from his intention, and yet that's what Ruki had just implied that he was doing, wasn't it? Maybe he was being a little rash, but it was his job wasn't it? To look after Ruki? Or was it just because he held feelings of his own for the chibi blonde, and he couldn't stand seeing him with someone else? It was even worse since it was Miyavi. Miyavi. What made him so special anyways? He wasn't that good looking…. Skinny, boney…how was that more attractive to Ruki than himself?
Watching Ruki leave, Reita sighed. Now he had pissed off his vocalist. Great. The day had been rotten from the start. Miyavi had been the cause of everything that had gone wrong today, and it was nowhere near over yet. That thought really annoyed Reita, and he found himself wanting to hurt the tall soloist. He decided to go outside for a smoke and try to calm himself down. If Ruki really wanted this, he couldn't stop him. He knew that much about the short blonde. He would always do what he wanted, despite what people said.
Lighting the smoke once outside, Reita decided that Ruki was right. He would just have to let Ruki do what he wanted, and be there when it all crumbled down. It was going to drive Reita mad, but it was better to let it happen then to ruin his and Ruki's friendship trying to stop it. It sucked, but it was just what he was going to have to do.
