I looked at the busy streets around me, at the tall buildings and familiar scenery. I hadn't been in Tokyo since, since… Well since I left eight years ago to go to college. I pulled the one bag I'd brought with me up off the sidewalk when I noticed an empty cab coming my way. I held up my hand and he pulled over.
Opening the door then shoving myself and my one bag I I closed the door and then said
"Café mew mew please." The guy laughed.
"What?"
"Nothin'. It's just, Café Mew Mew hasn't been 'round in 5 yea's." My mouth kinda gaped.
"Well, what's there now?" The guy shrugged
"Ya know, the uhh- Tokyo stock buldin'." Tokyo stock building? That can't be right.
"Well, okay; take me there please." We drove for about five minutes, and then we came to this tall silver prescience looking skyscraper. My mouth was gaped pretty wide. No, no, how could Ryou do this?
I stepped out, handed him a twenty picked up my bag and shut the door. He drove away and I was standing by myself in the middle of a parking lot, looking dumb founded up at a sky scrapper. Then I looked up at the sky next to it. It was starting to get dark. I hoped Ryou would let me stay with him. How did I even know he was here? Well I didn't but I didn't exactly have much of a choice either. I was pretty short on cash and had nowhere else to go. Besides all that I really needed to talk to him.
I walked up to the buildings double doors, pushed one open and walked into a really upper class looking foyer. A lot of it was an eye piercing white marble. I walked over to the receptionist at the desk.
"Um, hi is Ryou Shirogane here?" I asked all unsure of myself. She looked upa tme over the tips of her glasses.
"And you are?"
"Oh, I'm an old friend." She looked at me a minute the pressed a button on her telephone and started talking.
"Danny we have a visitor for Mr. Shirogane here in the lobby, says she's an old friend- would you bring her up to him please?"
"Sure I'll be down in a minute." She stopped pressing down on the button and got to doing what looked like paper work. After a couple seconds she stopped ad looked back up at me.
"Why are you still here?"
"Oh, I –uh-"
"Sit." She ordered pointing towards the multiple white leather couches. I quickly walked over and sat. It wasn't for long. A couple minutes later a ma in a black suit and thick shade's walked out of the marble elevator doors. I hate it when people ware shade's at night time, it make's no sense.
He looked over at the lady at the desk and she pointed over at me. He looked at me then said,
"Come on," And I followed him into the elevator. He clicked the very last button that said roof and then the doors closed.
"So what is this place?" I asked curious. The man sort of laughed at me.
"I was being serious…" I said under my breath.
"Well, you're obviously not from around here are you?" (He didn't let me answer) "Tokyo stocks had been in business for five years now ever since Ryou Shirogane, Mr. Shirogne's son finally took over his business. But he set it up in Tokyo. It's the second most famous stock building; right under Wall Street." Ryou was doing stocks? That didn't sound like something he'd do at all.
"So why is Ryou on the roof?" I asked.
"Who knows…" The man muttered. Then the elevator made a cling sound and the doors opened. I stepped out said thank you to the ma then looked around me.
RYOU'S POV
I looked all the way down the side of the building. It was a hell of a long way down. I closed my eyes and breath out. When I opened them I remembered what I was doing and why I was doing it. What was I going to do, chicken out now? And look forward to a new day of waking up hung over going to work, mindlessly talking about boring old stocks? Another day of leting everyone do my work for me, and having everyone treat me like they're suppose to. Since I am 'Mr. Shirogane's son'. Everyone loves me, why? Hell no it's not cause of who I am, it's my money. So after a 'perfect' boring mindless lifeless day doing stocks I get drunk again and do it all over. No, way. I'm not backing out this time, I'm really gunna do it… I looked down over the edge again all the way past all those floor to the sidewalk. I take a step back.
"Dahmn it! You're such a coward!" I yelled at myself. Closing my eyes I took a step forward, then another, then another- I felt air underneath my foot, I began to fall then-
"Or you just don't want to die." I felt someone hold onto my arm and pull me back. I opened my eyes. Was I imagining this? No, I had to be. It could be…
"Ichigo?" I said facing her.
ICHIGO'S POV
"Oh Ryou, what happened to you?" I looked at his scruffy chin and messy hair. His eye's were blood shot and he smelled a bit like alcohol. I hugged him tightly; and felt his arms land a bit awkwardly on my back.
"Ryou I've missed you so much." I said, my voice sort of muffled since my face was berried in his chest.
"I've missed you too." I pulled myself out of the hug and took a step back.
"Ryou…" I tried to start to tell him why I had come here in the first place.
"Ichigo?" My eyes started tearing I could feel them. Soon I couldn't see much of anything.
"Ryou… They're back." I said quietly, I sniffed. I looked up at the confused look on his face.
"The aliens." I said this time more clearly, but as I continued I couldn't hold them back any longer and felt the hot tears pour down my cheeks.
