Only a Nightmare Chapter 4: Neji!!!!!

"Really? Well that doesn't surprise me, because how could he be sad if he is the one with the easy life," Neji complained, cleaning the makeup on his hand to reveal a big mark, then taking out his contact lenses to show his real black eyes. "Well Eiji…. I'll see you later." He made an evil smile and walked away, leaving his twin looking at the floor and some regulars a little bit surprised.

"It was obvious since your eyes are lifeless, bored, and sad, the opposite of Eiji`s, which are happy, hyperactive, and full of life and dreams," the blue-eyed boy thought with his eyes on the ground that he didn't notice someone calling his name, so Oishi put a hand on his shoulder. That caught his attention, and Eiji saw that everyone was looking at him really worried.

"Nya...what?.. I have something in my face?" the acrobat asked with a cheerful voice and smile.

"Eiji, are you hurt or something? You were very distracted," Oishi pointed out, looking at those blue orbs of his doubles partner. Eiji, I don't want something to happen to you. Tell me what is happening. Who is this guy who looks like you? He thought, but didn't want to push his friend.

"Don't worry, I'm fine," Eiji assured, looking at his doubles partner, then his best friend, and finally everyone else. "Well, as I already told you, it was my twin again, and he is trying to kill me to get everything I have." Everyone looked worried.

"Don't worry nya…. He already left so there is nothing to worry about," Eiji added, smiling and heading for the tennis courts. He was ready to practice but at the same time scared because he knew Neji would not stop until he was dead.

"Eiji…"


Practice went by normally, with Eiji happy, calm, and as bouncy as ever, as if he had forgotten about the incident with his twin. Fuji and Oishi were happy about that, but at the same time afraid of what would happen if their friend were alone in his house.

"Eto…Eiji... you want to … come stay at my house?" the mother of Seigaku offered, a little bit nervous. He knew his doubles partner would agree but he was somehow afraid that Eiji would think of something strange and decline or something would happen if Neji tried to kill him again.

"Nya? Of course Oishi, I'd love to stay at your house today," the hyperactive boy agreed, smiling and hugging his doubles partner. It was something Eiji really liked. He loved Oishi's family and house since it was so calm and silent, the opposite of his.

"O-okay, Eiji let's go." The fukubuchou smiled, and they both entered the clubroom to change, then headed for Oishi's house. Everything was normal, calming the green-eyed boy a little. Maybe Neji wouldn't attack Eiji if he is with someone so he decided to be by his side as much as he could.


"Eiji, you want something to eat?" the mother of Seigaku asked, setting down his belongings and heading for the kitchen. His doubles partner only nodded and followed. Oishi prepared some rice balls and juice, then they both sat at the table and began to eat. The hyperactive boy was happily talking about random things like Fuji, his family, school, tennis, and how he loved Oishi's house, and the fukubuchou just quietly listened to him talk about his likes and dislikes. It was the usual Eiji.

"Thanks, Oishi, for everything nya," Eiji said heading upstairs with his doubles partner nodding and smiling behind him. They both prepared the red-haired boy's futon, which was in the same room as Oishi's so he can keep an eye on the acrobat. The night passed without any attacks, and everything really calm. They listened when Oishi's parents enter the house and went to sleep. The next morning the mother of Seigaku woke his friend up an hour before the normal time, because they had school and he didn't want to be late.


"Nya Oishi, you woke me up very early nya," Eiji complained as they both walked to school. "I'm still sleepy, why did you do that? I was so relaxed and hoping to sleep a little bit more, but no, you had to wake me up."

"Eiji!" Someone pushed the still sleepy boy to the ground and grabbed his neck very hard. He couldn't move and Oishi wasn't able to act on time to protect him. When both of them were able to see the guy they identified him as Neji. Eiji was on the ground and his twin on top of him with one hand on the acrobat's neck and the other pointing a knife at his victim's chest.

"Eiji!" The mother of Seigaku tried to run toward them, but the attacker announced, "If you make a move Eiji will die!" as he waved the knife up and down.

"Eiji!" Oishi didn't knew what to do. No matter what he did, his doubles partner would die. He was about to move, but stopped when he saw Eiji's face. The blue-eyed boy was really surprised of Neji's actions. If he had the opportunity to kill him why he didn't do it? And why he was….. crying? Yes, Kikumaru Neji, Eiji's twin, the one who was trying to kill him the past two days was crying.

"N-Neji," was the only thing his victim managed to gasp for he didn't know what to do at that moment. He feels his attacker's grip on his neck decrease in power so he was now able to escape, but for some reason he couldn't move. It was as if some feeling made him stay there.

Oishi noticed that Neji had loosened the grip on Eiji, but he didn't move so screamed, "EIJI MOVE!" At that moment his doubles partner reacted and pushed his attacker away, and the knife flew away from his hand. Eiji ran to Oishi, and they both took off as fast as they could, leaving Neji behind and not looking back. They didn't stop running until they arrived at the school, dashed into the clubroom, and locked the door. They took a big breath, but didn't notice that everyone was already inside the clubroom until Fuji asked what happened to make them run and sweat like that, and if it all had something to do with Neji. Eiji only nodded, sat on the floor, pulled his legs to his chest, and leaned his head on them. Oishi only looked at Fuji and lowered his head.
