Monkey: I own nothing!
A door creaked open.
"Jehu?" Haou called out, hopeful.
The amber eyed bluenette stepped in.
Haou stood up and walked towards him, but stopped when he looked at him closely. "J-Jehu?"
Jehu was breathing heavily, his clothes torn and his hands covered in blood. He had a huge gash across his chest that was bleeding profusely.
"…Run…" Jehu choked out.
His eyes darkened. Before Haou could say anything, Jehu's eyes closed and he fell forward.
Haou rushed forward and quickly caught him. "Jehu??" He felt his neck for a pulse. There was none. "Jehu…?"
"JEHU!" Haou awoke screaming.
The soft ticking sound of his clock wasn't strong enough to drown out his heavy breathing. Through the dim lighting in his room, he saw it was only one in the morning.
He had school tomorrow.
With a small sigh, he laid back down, closing his eyes.
It was only a dream…
He fell back to sleep within seconds, lulled by the still rapid beating of his heart.

Haou slammed his locker shut.
"Pissed?" someone asked.
The brunette rolled his eyes. "Shouldn't you be running from your fangirls right now?"
"Don't jinx it." Jehu said, looking all around for those demons from Hell. "And besides, I wanted to be with you. Is that a crime?"
"Yes."
"Harsh. But that's what I like about you." Just as he was about to get closer to Haou, someone screamed.
"LOOK!!! IT'S JEHU!!!!"
"Damn it." Jehu cursed. He quickly gave Haou a kiss then started running.
Haou shook his head as he made his way to class. "Idiot."
---
Haou walked with Jehu towards the quad at the start of lunch.
"What's got you so quiet?" Jehu asked.
Haou glanced at him, gold eyes locking with amber ones. "Why do you care?"
Jehu frowned. "You know I care about you. What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Haou shifted his gaze away and looked at the windows of the office they were passing.
He saw someone following them in the windows, but when he turned around, no one was there.
Looking back at the windows, he saw that same person was there. The reflection suddenly disappeared, not even leaving a trace of something having been there.
"Hey Jehu, what was that?"
Jehu raised a brow. "What was what?"
Haou didn't answer.
Jehu sighed. "Look, I just wish you trusted me a little more, ya know?"
Before Haou could say anything, a surprisingly small group of fangirls popped out from out of no where and surrounded Jehu, shoving Haou aside.
Haou raised a brow.
The girls all started screaming and Jehu found no ways of escape.
"Haou!" he reached out to him, but it was to no avail.
One of the fangirls went farther than any of them have gone before. She reached up and planted a kiss on Jehu's lips.
"EEEEEEEEK!" the girls shrieked happily.
Haou stared in shock though he didn't let it appear on his face. Except for his eyes widening a bit.
Jehu blinked several times and quickly pulled away from her. Oh shit. If Haou saw that… "Haou!"
Over the now bigger group of fangirls, Haou looked away.
"Haou!" Jehu repeated, trying to push his way out of the crowd.
Haou refused to look at him and quickened his pace, leaving Jehu behind.
Am I losing Jehu…?
---
When Haou got home, he threw his things onto the ground and ran up the stairs.
He hadn't bothered going out to the quad after that incident. He just ditched school altogether.
Opening the door to his room, he stopped.
A rose sat in the middle of his bed again, a red rose like before. But this time, it was in the middle of a pool of blood.
Ignoring the blood, Haou carefully picked up the rose. It dripped with the crimson liquid. He blinked when he saw that the rose was actually white, but the blood stained it a dark red.
A white rose… Endless stupidity.
Haou scoffed and set the rose back in its original place.
He should give one of these to Jehu. That moron. That brainless, irresponsible, reckless fool.
Haou narrowed his eyes when he knew that he didn't mean all that.
Although there were some times when he wanted to stamp the word "dumbass" on Jehu's forehead…
A small sound caught his attention.
He looked behind him.
Nothing.
The hallway was empty, as always.
There was the sound again.
It sounded like, a pair of dice falling on the wooden floor.
But he didn't have any dice, and no one was in his house but him.
There it went again.
What the hell was going on??
He turned around and saw a shadow glide across the wall before his vision went black.
---
"Haou! Hey Haou, are you there? Haou!" Jehu called from outside Haou's house. School had ended a short while ago and the first thing Jehu did after ditching his fangirls for the day was go straight to Haou's house.
It was locked and no matter what he did, the brunette refused to give him a spare key.
He could always kick the door down, but the last thing Jehu needed right now was another reason for the brunette to hate him, not to mention owing Haou a lot of money and a new door.
The two toned brunette opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on his bed.
He blinked. Wasn't he just standing under the threshold of his room?
Looking around him, he saw the rose was gone and so was the pool of blood.
"Haou!"
He got off his bed and walked out of his room. Making his way down the stairs, he heard the sound of the dice again. Shaking his head, he opened the front door.
Only to slam it shut a couple seconds later before Jehu had a chance to say anything.
"Aw come on, Haou! I didn't even kiss her back!"
Haou opened the door. "You let her kiss you."
Jehu smirked. "Are you jealous?"
Haou slammed the door shut again.
Jehu sighed. "Haou, I was just kidding. You know that I'd never leave you."
"You left me before…"
"What?" Jehu didn't manage to hear that.
Haou realized he spoke that out loud and scolded himself for getting so worked up over a silly little dream.
"Nothing. Go away."
"Haou…"
The brunette stayed quiet.
"…Would it make a difference if I told you I love you?"
Haou opened the door a crack. "You think that solves everything, huh?"
"Does it?"
Haou sighed. He opened the door and let the bluenette in.
Jehu took Haou into his arms. "I knew you couldn't stay mad at me for too long."
"Don't tempt me."
Jehu released him and the two walked up the stairs and went into Haou's room.
Jehu looked around. "Didn't you used to have a mirror in here?"
Haou rolled his eyes. "If you want to see yourself that badly, take a picture of yourself."
Jehu chuckled. "Not what I meant, but I don't need to take a picture when I know you have one of me in your phone."
Haou mentally cursed. He'd have to delete that picture now. But how did Jehu know…?
They talked for some time then walked out of the room in order to go to the kitchen.
As they walked down the hall, they walked towards a mirror hanging in the hallway.
Jehu grinned. "I'm hot."
"Conceited." Haou rolled his eyes.
Jehu turned around with the grin on his face but Haou paid no attention to it. What he was focused on was the mirror. Jehu had moved… but his reflection had stayed.
Haou blinked several times.
How was that possible??
Jehu frowned. "Are you ok?"
Haou moved his gaze away from the mirror. "…Jehu, do you think I could stay over at your place for a while?"
Jehu raised a brow. "But you always hate being at my house."
"I know. But I thought maybe we could hang out over the weekend?" Haou tried.
Jehu thought for a bit. "Sure."
The bluenette took Haou's hand and they went down the stairs and instead of going to the kitchen, they left, going to Jehu's house.
Haou couldn't get the mirror image out of his mind.
But what caught his attention most was that when they were about to leave, Haou looked back at the mirror and saw that Jehu's reflection was not only still there, it was smirking and staring straight at him.
