HAI DOZO!
Chapter 24 I love you...
Goku continued to cry on his bed, ignoring every single person that was outside of his room.
"M-MY-MY NAME'S G-GO-KU!"
"That's a very interesting name, Goku, It's nice meeting you," Kougaiji said.
Goku inched farther more. "YEEEEKKKK!"
*CRASH!*
"Oh dear! Are you all right?!" The man extended his hand farther to help the freshman that was sprawled all over the floor.
"Y-You're worried about me?" the boy asked with a surprised tone.
"What the-?! Of course I am!" the red head answered quite furiously.
"W-w-why?" Goku asked.
"Because I'm your friend!" Kougaiji exclaimed. "You told me your name, I told you mine! Doesn't that mean we're friends now?"
I'm sorry Kougaiji, I got you in this, Goku cried as he tightened his embrace on his legs. "Forgive me," the boy whispered to himself softly.
"Because I'm your friend!"
Goku's eyes widened as he remembered that lovely line, and without much of a choice, cried as hard as he could.
Hakkai embraced Gojyo as he cried on the man's shoulders. "He-he looks so broken! I-I can't bear to see him like this! I can't look at Goku straight in the eyes!"
Gojyo embraced the man back as he kept silent. I always can manage to break off the ice, even if I can't make him like other people. There's always this glint in his eyes that tell me he's happy inside, "But I'm as useless as anybody right now," the man said as he tightened his fists and bowed his head.
"WHY DID WE HAVE TO LEAVE?! WE SHOULD HAVE STAYED WITH GOKU!" Konzen screamed.
"Konzen, even if we don't want to, we have to! We can't stay on school grounds, nor by the dorms, and our next patrol isn't till next Tuesday," Tenpou explained as much as he could. But one could definitely tell that the man wasn't his usual calm self.
But Konzen wasn't going to take no for an answer. "YOU ASSHOLES KNOW THAT THE KILLER IS AFTER GOKU RIGHT?! HOW CAN YOU EVEN HAVE THE NERVE TO BE-"
*WHACK!*
A punch then rang in the air, followed by a sound of a body falling to the ground.
"K-Kenren!" Tenpou shrieked at the man who was huffing as his fist tightened.
"Zip it Tenpou, this fucker has got to learn some fucking lessons!"
Konzen glared murder at the man. "What the fuck did you do that for you fucking asshole?!" the man screamed as he stood up and prepared to attack Kenren.
"TO HELL WITH YOU!" Kenren screamed back. "So, Mr. Stick-up-his-fucking-ass is frustrated huh?! Well here's the latest evidence we found sher-fuck! You are not the only one concerned about Goku! All of us are! So don't think that we are not concerned because every single one of us is thinking about how Goku is doing right now! You have no fucking right to say that to Tenpou either! He has cared for Goku more than you can ever imagine! So don't you dare scream at him like that!"
Konzen stopped, and realized his faults, but either way he would never admit he was wrong. He wiped his mouth with his hand and hissed in pain as he diverted his eyes from Kenren. "Tch, just because you two are a pair of love birds doesn't mean you have to brag about it."
"K-Konzen," Tenpou exclaimed in a very embarrassed state.
"Hmph, you guys have to seriously stop making out right in front of me, if Goku ever noticed it I don't know what the hell I'm going to tell him," the blonde said as he stood up and brushed the dust off his clothes.
"You good for nothing bastard," Kenren fumed as he tightened his grip on his fist and glared at the man, his eyes twitching violently while being covered in dark shadows. "You seriously are an asshole."
"Hmph!" Konzen exclaimed with a smirk.
Goku had stopped crying for a while now. He then looked at his foot.
"HEY WATCH OUT!" A familiar voice screamed.
"Huh? What?" Goku panicked, looked in front of him and saw a pile of books hovering above him. "AAAAGGGGHHHH!" Goku screamed covering himself.
A loud crash was heard and shook the entire hallway with the sound of falling books. "Ah! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to, eh? You, aren't you the boy from this morning?" Kougaiji asked.
"Huh?" Goku's face turned pale. "Uh h-h-he-llo I-I have to BYE!" But his collar was yanked by Kougaiji. "Ah! Let me go! Let me, Ita!"
Kougaiji raised an elegant eyebrow.
Goku groaned. Why was he so unlucky? First he got cornered by Gojyo. Then he met a weird blonde who was stealing his cap. Now a redhead he met this morning was suddenly holding him by the waist and hoisting him up wait. WHAT? Goku looked down and saw that Kougaiji was already carrying him and had placed him on top of the cart.
"I can always put the books back after I'm done bringing you to the infirmary," Kougaiji said in a monotone as he placed the books back one by one under the cart.
"L-look! I'm f-fine! S-see," Goku squirmed in his position and fell flat on the ground. "Ooowww."
"You are a funny young man," Kougaiji said with a smile. He then picked Goku up and placed him back on the cart.
"N-no! I'm fine! Please," Goku protested his face was red. Very red.
Kougaiji sighed. "I don't think you're fine. So whether you like it or not you're coming with me to the infirmary."
"B-b-b-but."
"Too bad," Kougaiji smiled gently as he started to push the cart slowly.
Gojyo's hair was nothing against Goku's blushing face.
Goku gritted his teeth. Homura, you fucker. I can accept the fact you want to kill me, but I'll never forgive you for hurting-
"NATAKU?!"
"SHIT! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!"
"HANG IN THERE!"
Goku's ears perk up as he heard Hakkai and Gojyo screaming. "Wh-what's going on?" the boy asked as he opened the door.
"NO! GOKU! GO BACK TO THE ROOM! RIGHT NOW! DON'T YOU DARE TAKE ANOTHER STEP CLOSER" Gojyo screamed at the boy.
The door was obstructing Goku's view and the boy didn't listen to the older man. He still took a step outside. He still approached them.
Blood was pooling around the floor. Blood that came from, "N-Nataku?" Goku asked in disbelief.
Hakkai was cradling the bloody boy as he tried to carry him, yet his knees were too weak to do so.
"GOKU, DIDN'T I SAY GO BACK TO YOUR ROOM?!" Gojyo screamed.
But the younger boy didn't listen to the man again and just stood there, looking at his best friend who was dying in front of him.
Nataku coughed blood.
Goku twitched.
Nataku looked at him with hollow yet sorry eyes.
Goku backed away.
Nataku mouthed words.
Goku understood.
Nataku smiled one last time.
Goku screamed and ran out of the dorm.
"I-I'm... sorry"
"GOKU WAIT!" Hakkai screamed after the boy.
"FUCK!" The redhead screamed in frustration and panic as he chased the boy down the corridors of the dormitory.
"DON'T FOLLOW ME!" Goku wailed in tears as he tried to escape from reality that his best friend was almost dying in his dorm.
Gojyo cursed words at how fast Goku could run. He knew the kid was never the athletic type, yet he sure could run fast when he wanted to. Gojyo screamed and called out to the boy and was successfully ignored. But deep inside, all he wanted was for Goku to stop and calm the fuck down so they could help Nataku. That's when he had an idea, before he lost sight of Goku he took his phone out, and began to call Sanzo. Gojyo never liked the guy, but this situation was more important than his pride and anger combined.
"Sanzo, I need you right now!"
"If this concerns Goku, then I'm more than willing to help."
"Thanks,"
This is all my fault, if-if only I had stayed at the orphanage, this-this wouldn't have happened! Goku screamed in his mind as he continued to run. Nobody would have gotten hurt! Nobody would have been suffering right now!
The boy continued to run as fast as his legs would allow, not caring about a single moment as to where his legs were taking him. Anywhere! He'd do anything to escape reality right now.
But as Goku continued to run, unconsciously, he tripped again on another object that was obstructed from his view like before, "GAH!"
And the boy was then sent flying across the ground, and the ground was not merciful to the impact. Rolling more than a few times till the action came to a complete stop. His face was scarred and wounded, his small delicate hands were full of small stinging cuts, his clothes were dirty, rumpled, and torn.
But what made him more pitiful now was that his heart was being torn to pieces. I should have stayed in the orphanage, Goku thought as he gritted his teeth and hissed in anger. Why did it have to be them?! Why did Homura attack Nataku and not him? Why did Kougaiji have to protect him?! Why did Nataku say he was sorry?!
"Why can't I protect the people I care for like I'm supposed to?" the boy asked himself as he pounded in frustration at the ground and cried. There were more than a million questions buzzing in the boy's head, but he couldn't even find a single answer for any of them. "DAMMIT!" he screamed, "WHY?!"
Suddenly, a voice spoke out of nowhere:
"That's quite a big improvement. I never knew you cared for people, but on second thought, you only shut yourself off from the world to protect them right? You knew that keeping your mouth shut was the best way to hide the unbearable truth from the people you care for."
Goku's eyes widened at the statement but never had the nerve to reason out. "No, i-it was because I was being a coward," the boy sniffled. "I was useless through the years."
"But you've made so many people happy through these years. Do you really considered that being useless?"
"What?!"
"Without you, Konzen would have been crankier, and Tenpou would have been miserable. Even if Tenpou had Kenren, Tenpou always wanted to have children. But I guess in their current relationship, that would have been impossible, well not till you came along."
"I made Konzen happy?" the boy asked the voice.
"Hmm, well not just Konzen. Do you think Hakkai would still be alive if you didn't stop him from taking his eye out? He would have committed suicide after he was done killing the people who killed his sister. Or how about Gojyo? Do you think he would be attending this academy with you if you hadn't set him straight 3 years ago?"
Goku's eyes widened even more, sudden realization has started sinking into his head.
"And I don't think Sanzo wouldn't be too happy attending this school by himself if you hadn't come along. And Kougaiji, well, I heard he was known to be the "Lonely Prince". See? You made a lot of people happier then you have realized."
The person then stood up and started walking away.
Goku raised his head and looked at the stranger. "W-who are you?!"
The stranger faced him with a small smile. His long thin brown hair was tied in a small tail and was being blown by the night wind along with the sakura petals that were falling from the tree. "Me? Let's just say that I'm a person who has been watching you carefully all these years. Well I was not alone though."
"Please, at least tell me your name before you leave!"
"Son Taisei, we used to have similar names but I guess that guy forced Konzen to change your name." The boy chuckled, he then offered a hand to Goku, and the boy graciously accepted it.
"That guy?"
"You know him, it's just that he is very shy," the boy then looked at his watch. "Well will you look at that? It's almost time," Taisei then bowed to Goku. "I'll be seeing you soon, but for the mean time, don't give up. Since he's already here."
"He?"
Taisei just smiled as he pointed behind them.
"GOKU!" A familiar voice screamed.
The boy turned around, and found who the owner of the voice was, and he definitely didn't waste time. Even if his whole body was sore, or that his legs were weak and stinging with pain, Goku forced himself to sprint to the person. To the person he cared for, loved, and didn't fear above all.
The person had already accepted who he was. Even if he was a coward, or that he once feared him. This person was running to him with concern etched into his features accompanied with open arms.
"SANZO!" Goku screamed as he ran to his savior in tears. Accepting the blonde's embrace gratefully with no regrets and tackling him to the ground. "I WAS SCARED SANZO! I LEFT NATAKU! KOUGAIJI IS ABOUT TO LEAVE ME! AND HOMURA MIGHT TARGET EVERYONE ELSE!" the boy cried into the man's chest as hard as he could.
Sanzo was rattled, but he then smiled as he hugged the boy gently. "Nataku has been brought to the hospital, Kougaiji's condition has stabilized a few minutes ago, and if you are fearing that bastard Homura right now, don't worry. I'll cut off his balls before he even lays a hand on you," the blonde said with a very confident smirk.
Hearing the vulgar statement, "Sanzo, do you think I'm disgusting?" the boy asked in a whisper.
Sanzo was quite surprised by the question. "And what makes you think that?"
"Because, I'm dirty," Goku said with a trembling voice. "Homura, he-he 'touched' me."
"So I heard," Sanzo said quite bluntly.
Goku flinched at what Sanzo had said and hugged the man a little tighter. "You hate me right? I'm gross and disgusting."
"Did you ever hear me say I hate you?" Sanzo asked. "Cause I never recalled saying anything like that," the blonde said as he brushed Goku's bangs aside. "After all, you are still very innocent and cute looking to me."
Goku blushed at how Sanzo was acting so boldly, but on second thought, Sanzo had always been very bold. The boy looked at the blonde's deep dark purple eyes and without any second thoughts kissed the blonde on the lips.
Sanzo was shocked, since Goku never made a move, but smirked. He's learning.
A few moments later, Goku withdrew as he blushed and placed his head down on Sanzo's chest.
"I love you, Sanzo," the boy said very softly.
Sanzo smirked as he looked up the dark sky. "Me too."
"I gotta have my camera! ISN'T THIS JUST A KODAK MOMENT?" A sinisterly voice exclaimed from behind them. The voice was followed by the sound of a gun clicking right next to Sanzo's head.
