Broken Files

Chapter Eight

"Hey. You sleep too long." He sounded annoyed as he stirred the male from his deep slumber. Shuichi sat up, groaning as the assault of light hit his barely open eyes. A loud yawn forced his mouth open.

"Yuuuuki." He whined. "What time is it?" It must be early, thought the teenager as he rubbed at his eyes and prepared himself to lie back down.

"It's nearly noon, idiot. You can sleep in the car." The blond seemed grumpy. He pulled the blankets back from Shuichi, leaving the other to shiver and curl up more. Why was Yuki being so mean to him? Yesterday had been so nice, but today Yuki seemed to go back to being mean to him as ever. He brushed some pink strands out of his eyes as he moved from the bed, not too happy about it. He made it obvious too. He dragged his feet along the nice carpet to the bathroom to get ready to leave this paradise like place.

He pulled on a red shirt, looking himself over in the mirror. As his violet eyes moved down over his image, he noted that his hair was getting longer and longer. He'd need to get it cut soon. He didn't want to look like a girl and Shuichi knew that with long hair he could be mistaken for the opposite gender. He huffed at the mirror. It seemed the blond was not the only one grumpy.

They were in a taxi, AGAIN. He was so tired of taxis. Why didn't Yuki have a car of his own? The bum. He was an adult, much older than him. He should have a car! But Shuichi's sometimes childish logic wouldn't get to the blond. He knew that consulting the other about getting a car wouldn't work. Shuichi began to consider it over in the car. Maybe Yuki really was just a homeless bum. What a weird thought. Though, Yuki didn't look the type. Shuichi thought that his looks made him look like royalty. Plus, he acted like an arrogant bastard. Did homeless people act like that? Shuichi had never acted like that…

He waved goodbye to the beach as it disappeared behind them. This had hardly been much of a vacation at all. Hadn't Yuki said they were going to relax? They'd barely been on the beach at all. Shuichi felt like making a complaint. He kept quiet. Instead, he just kicked the back of Yuki's seat a few times, which had surprisingly gone ignored.

"Hey, how do you know where I'm headed to anyway?" He asked with an uninterested sigh.

"Uh…You told me." Yuki glanced back at Shuichi with a dumbfounded look.

"Oh…Yeah." He glanced out to the window. Shuichi was bored. He was tired of travelling like this.

If his father had known that he was coming, would he have worried about his son by now? Would have sent out a search party, tried to call his cell phone (which was probably busted up on the road somewhere)? Would his father have cared that much? Would he even give his missing son a second thought? That old bastard was probably sitting comfortably in his large recliner chair, sipping at some wine. No doubt he was probably far too busy with some woman in his lap to give his lost and estranged son a thought.

The male sighed and coughed a bit. This sucked. A nap sounded nice. So much for avoiding sleeping taxis. He curled up in the back and quickly fell to sleep.

There was a loud noise, followed by another loud noise. Then there was the shatter of glass and a sound that reminded him of a gunshot and a squelching sound.

"Shit!" Well, Shuichi had never heard him sound like that. There was a lot of shuffling around and the door opening. "Shuichi! Get out of the car! Now!" Yuki was yelling at him! What the heck was going on? Shuichi wasn't given much time to think as his own door swung wide open and he felt his body pulled out onto the road.

"Y…Yuki! What's going on?!"

There was another gunshot.

Shuichi looked up in horror.

There wasn't much blood. If only he'd known about the blood that had cascaded onto his cheek. The bullet had gone straight through that beautiful skull. As a result tears started to stream down his cheeks very quickly and without falter. He clung onto the other.

A small gasp left his lips quickly before he fell over with a loud thunk.

-End

….Or is it? Whoa. So dark. I don't know what came over me guys, honestly. This just…Hit me. I feel a little sad ending it like this, but I couldn't think of what to write. I hope you guys can forgive me.
