Past, Present, and Future: Masamune's Dreams

by CookiesForAlmostEveryone

Set during the time that Masamune and Ritsu were, apart this story follows Masamune's dreams. Past, the one who knows, helps Masamune to accept his mistakes. Present, who pops out of nowhere, watches him during the day. Future, who is clueless, tells stories. Disclaimer: I do not own Sekaiichi Hatsukoi. My bae, Nakamura-sensei does. I do own my plot, though.

4. You can't change your past

So, it has been a while. Um...not really much of an excuse. I realized quite a few times that I needed a mew chapter but procrastinated the FUCK out of it. Well, here I go.

Hey, Takano, can you take a look at this rough draft I'm faxing. I need this done quickly, please. Deadline is in 1 week and we need to get this drawn up and toned. Thank you.

Really? Iketori-san? Can you ever do your work? I stood up from my seat and trudged to the fax machine. I watched a top paper come through telling who it was for before the actual manuscript came in. Kuroko no basuke, huh? Looking over the manuscript, I made pen marks on certain pages and then faxed the corrections back to Iketori.

"Takano-san! We have a meeting in 5. Come on!" I stood up, grabbing my proposal for an event. Free! was getting popular after all.

~~~~~~~~~~~Skip the FUCK out of Time~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What the HELL do you mean we're through?!" Someone yelled as I entered the shounen editorial department. I looked to my left to see Haitani glaring at Iketori. Gotta stop this before it escalates.

"Hey! What's going on here?"

"YOU!"

"Me? What did I do?"

"Ever since you went drinking with Ina, he hasn't been the same and now he wants to BREAK UP?! It's your fault!"

"How is it my fault that he wants to end YOUR relationship? Isn't that normally the lover's fault?"

"You SEDUCED him. You knew he was mine and didn't want me to have him."

"NO. I was there for drinks because YOUR my FRIEND. I didn't know you weren't gonna be there until I got there."

"U-Um, Takano-san?" I looked down at Haitani's lover. "I-I like you. Will you go out with me?"

"No, you have Haitani."

"There you go again. You're flirting with him right in front of my fucking face."

"I'm not doing anything of the goddamn sort."

"U-um, do you think you could quiet down? People are trying to work and you're being WAY too loud." I turned to see the guy from two months ago. I nodded right before a searing pain settled across my face. I spat out blood as I turned to look at Haitani with shock evident upon my visage.

"WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?" I right hooked him back before he calmed down.

"BOTH OF YOU SUSPENDED. OUT. NOW." I turned toward our boss and nodded. I grabbed my bag out of my cubicle and stuffed everything in there.

"I QUIT." I yelled out as I left. I began my trudge home, not really paying attention. Before I knew it, I was in my house, sliding into my bed.

"What is your favorite genre of manga?"

"Shoujo."

"And why is that?"

"Because in shoujo, despite going through many hardships with your loved one, you still get your happy ending. The characters who love each other get that happy ending that many of us don't get.

The image faded and I was left standing in the doorway of the kitchen. Ah yes, I remember. My interview with Shuudansha. I should ask Takafumi if I can transfer to Marukawa since Shuudansha doesn't do shoujo.

I began to walk up the stairs when I heard moans and pants from my room. I race to my bedroom and slam the door open.

"S-Saga-senpai, are we d-dating or i-is this...?" My breath caught in my throat. No... I don't want to see this! Not again! Please!

Heh.

What? What the FUCK was that?! I look up to see Ritsu with tears down his face. Did I fucking LAUGH at him?! Ritsu, looking heartbroken, roundhouse kicks younger me and dashes right through ME. I felt pain, so much that I had the urge to throw up.

The messy bed and disheveled younger me disappears and Past is left in the wake. Angry that I had to experience that again, I stormed up to Past, about to hit him when I feel my arm being pulled back. Wide, amber eyes turn to see a chain wrapped around my forearm. I try to pull the chains off with my other arm, but that one if chained, as well.

"You can't change your Past, Masamune..." I'm dragged into the dark. I struggle but something is wringing in my ear. I feel suffocated.

"masamune... Masamune... Masamune! MASAMUNE!" I'm startled awake by the voice and turn to see Takafumi looming over me, hands gripping my forearms.

"S - Sorry..."

Well, that's it folks. Gonna come up with the next chapter hopefully sooner.
