"Shinozaki, how about you work on getting the glass out of Kishinuma's head," Naomi ordered as she started checking Satoshi for wounds. Ayumi nodded uneasily, but did as she said. It was hard watching Naomi working on her crush as she picked glass out of Yoshiki's head, she couldn't stand watching it for any longer. But suddenly, Satoshi woke up, his eyes barely open.
"Ow... what the hell happened," hi muttered, not remembering why he was knocked out. He was surprised to see Naomi when he woke up though, and he felt like it eased away his pain a little. He felt a large pain in his nose, and figured it was broken. Slowly, he lifted his hand up to his nose, noticing there was blood. "Shit," he started. "Is my nose broken?"
"I'm afraid it is," Naomi replied sadly. "You see, you and Kishinuma got into a fight and it ended up poorly."
"Where is he then?"
"Look over there," Naomi said pointing her face towards where Ayumi was working on Yoshiki. Luckily, he had stored a first aid kit in his bathroom for emergencies. Satoshi's face had suddenly filled with shock as he noticed what happened to his best friend. He also had noticed that Ayumi was picking glass out the back of Yoshiki's head.
"Damn. It did turn out bad," Satoshi sighed. "How did he end up with glass fragments in his head?"
"Shinozaki smashed an empty bottle of whiskey on his head after you were knocked out, and it knocked him out cold. He's been out ever since." The sound of Naomi's sweet voice mad Satoshi perk up in the middle of the bad situation, even if what she was talking about wasn't the best subject. If she weren't there, he didn't know what he'd do. He liked Naomi, but didn't know if she liked him back, so he was a little reluctant to asking her out, expecting the worst to happen.
"Thank you, Naomi," Satoshi whispered, causing her to turn her head towards him. "For everything." Naomi was shocked at the use of her first name, but she was glad at the same time. They'd grown closer over the summer, and she was hoping that it'd lead to a relationship between the two. Even though Satoshi thought he could get up, he lied in Naomi's lap, looking up at her face. But that nice moment couldn't last too long as Yoshiki had finally woken up.
"Fuck," he groaned, attempting to get up. He was weak after the fight though, so Ayumi could hold him in his place.
"Hold still," she ordered in a frustrated tone. She was obviously irritated by what was going on with Satoshi and Naomi, but there was still glass stuck in his head from when she smashed the bottle over him.
"What happened?" He asked quietly, trying not to move his head. He felt pain on the back of his head every so often, causing him to flinch at the pain.
"You and Mochida had a little fight," Ayumi replied.
"A little fight?" Yoshiki replied doubtfully. "The back of my head hurts like hell. What the hell happened?"
"Well you see I smashed a Whiskey bottle over your head and there's pieces of glass stuck in there. That's what knocked you out."
"That bottle better not have been full," Yoshiki said with a sour tone.
"Is that all you care about," Ayumi questioned in an angry tone. "You hurt Mochida badly and were severely injured and all you care about is booze? I can't believe you!"
"Calm down, holy shit. I was just trying to lighten the mood," Yoshiki snickered. He must have still been a little drunk - buzzed at least. He did have a lot of whiskey though.
"Well it didn't work. Look at Satoshi, he's hurt because of you! You can't keep being so stupid, Kishinuma," Ayumi yelled, continuing with her rant. By now she had been going off on him, as she was earlier at school.
"Oh, Satoshi, Satoshi, Satoshi," Yoshiki mimicked. "That's all I ever hear from you these days. Can you just calm down about Satoshi for once?" Ayumi stared at Yoshiki who was now standing, sticking up for himself as anyone would. "It's bad enough that your always on his di-" Yoshiki was stopped by a hard smack across his face, causing him to stumble and fall onto the ground, proving that the whiskey was still with him. There was a small hand print on the side of Yoshiki's face, showing where Ayumi had smacked him. Soon after he fell, Ayumi ran out of the room, not to return. Yoshiki turned and looked awkwardly at Satoshi and Naomi, who were now sitting beside each other up against the sofa in the living room. "Hey," he said casually, as if nothing had happened. The two of them just stared at him, not knowing what to say. He was drunk now, but tomoroow he was gonna feel eveything come down on him. Satoshi and Naomi both felt bad for him. "I'm gonna go to bed, guys. See you tomorrow." And with that, Yoshiki stumbled into his bedroom and slammed the door shut behind him, leaving Satoshi and Naomi all by their lonesome.
"Do you think you can stand?" Naomi asked.
"Ya, I should be fine," Satoshi replied. "Do you think I could walk you home?"
"Sure, if you're feeling up to it," she giggled. "I'd love for you to walk me home." She smiled and Satoshi smiled back.
"Lets get the hell out of here," Satoshi chuckled holding his hand out to Naomi. She thought about it for a second, and then took it with a smile as they eited the apartment, closing the door behind them.
The two walked for a while, hand in hand as they conversed about everything that had happened to them. "So Ayumi just rejected him?" Naomi asked, feeling bad for her friend. "And so harshly too?"
"I'm not kidding, that's what she told me. We came over to see how he was and that's all I can remember. "
"Wow," Naomi replied in disbelief. She couldn't believe how Ayumi just lashed out on him. She was truly shocked. In the end, she was glad that Satoshi was ok. "Lets just hope he shows up to school tomorrow morning."
"Ya," Satoshi agreed. "All we can do is hope." He was deep in thought about his best friend. He was worried about him, but all he could do is hope he'd show up tomorrow.
"We're here," Naomi said, looking up at her house. She was looking down at the ground, disappointed that the walk was over. "I'll see you tomorrow."
But before she could walk away, Satoshi stoped her with a kiss. Naomi was shocked at his move, but after realization, she began to kiss back until they had to pull away for air. "Ya," Satoshi said with a smirk. "I'll see you tomorrow, Naomi."
