"Sto-" Makoto's voice was stopped short. The fingertips pressed down harder on his forehead, forcing him to lie down on his bed. His eyes widen, the pain was unbearable. Finally, Makoto let out a scream. Black dots were beginning to cloud his vision. He faintly heard voices began to call him. Finally, blackness took over.
"Makoto!"
"Ah, Makoto…"
"Remember, every wish…"
He saw a girl, with long beautiful blond hair. A teenage boy, no younger than himself, smiling at him. He faded, Makoto saw something else, the faint Moon Crescent design. He saw another boy, the human-like plush boy. He had his arm extended, his hand waiting for Makoto to take his and. "Lets go." he heard softly. Makoto could suddenly feel the rush of wind pass through him. He saw clouds, then the universe sky. Next, he saw a sunny city. Filled with tall towers with plants and animals. He could faintly see the large ocean that sparkled in the distance. Makoto felt something press against his lips, as he did darkness was beginning to cloud his vision once more. Soon, Makoto felt no pressure no his forehead nor on his lips. His vision was coming back. He could see the colors of his room, the shape of something standing in front of him. He blinked, clearing his vision. He saw the familiar musical note. He saw the tired eyes, the lazy expression. He saw the bed hair. His eyes widen, tears began to collect.
"Minoru!" Makoto yelled happily. He sat up quickly on his bed and smiled. Minoru shifted his weight on the other foot and help his hand; making a peace sign.
"Yo." was all he replied.
Makoto shook his head. "Minoru!" he yelled once more. He got up and wrapped his arms around the lazy boy's waist. He pressed his cheek against Minoru's chest. Makoto smiled even more. Minoru's body heat was even warmer than he last recalled. He inhaled deeply. It was strange smell, it was hard to identify. Cold yet fresh, it almost smelled like flowers blooming in the snow. Makoto closed his eyes and hugged Minoru even tighter.
"Its been so long…" Makoto murmured.
Makoto slowly opened his eyes, he noticed Minoru hasn't moved his arms. He began to loosen his arms from Minoru, until he felt Minoru's arms wrap around him as well.
"Ah, Makoto. Forgot you were always so quick to the point." Minoru whispered.
"No, I'm just glad you're here." Makoto said, burying his face on Minoru's chest. Makoto felt Minoru's arm fall back to his side, his signal to let go as well. He took a step back and looked at Minoru.
"But Minoru…"
He tilted his head, "Oi?"
Makoto smiled and shook his head. "Why are you here? Where's Takashi? Did he send you here to watch over me while he went to genie world?" Makoto stopped. Minoru was no longer looking at him. Instead he was looking out the window.
"Makoto…" he said with a heavy sigh, "If you can remember who I am…then…"
Makoto took a sharp breath. His heart suddenly felt heavy, bruised with a few cracks. Minoru didn't have to say anything anymore. Makoto looked down at the floor, no longer smiling.
Takashi left him. His parting gift the plush doll.
"Ah…" Makoto shook his head, pushing those thoughts aside for now. "But, Minoru…"
He looked away from the window and back down at Makoto. "Hm?"
Makoto raised his head to look at him. "Why are you here then?"
Minoru laughed slightly. "Wow Makoto. You remember everything so fast and yet you don't know the most simple memory of them all."
Makoto raised a brow and tilted his head.
Minoru bent down a little to become nose to nose with Makoto.
He blushed.
"Are you actually asking me that Makoto?" he whispered softly.
"Well…" Makoto tried to pull away, but he felt Minoru wrap his arm around his waist. Makoto blushed even more and looked at him, confused.
"I'm your new Genie." Minoru whispered. He brought Makoto's body close to his. He bent his head down and gently pressed his lips against Makoto's.
