Hi everyone! I'm getting used to my new home and figured it was time to get back on the story. I hope you're all having a great summer. Once again, thanks for those who reviewed! I love reviews :) So here's chapter 8. This will probably contain OOC but it is a fanfiction. Enjoy!
"Masaomi, stop looking like that. You worrying me."
Orihara looked down at Kida who lay there motionless through half lidded eyes. The blonde turned his gaze to the older male, who had a genuine smile on his face. Kida tried to slip away but then flinch and fell back down.
"L-Look what you did…" Kida whispered as he shut his eyes and turned his head to the side.
"I'm sorry Masaomi." The black haired male lowered himself onto the boy's neck. "I couldn't help myself." He spoke against his skin. Kida shivered slightly at the contact and let out a surprised gasp when his hair was pulled back. "Masaomi's scent is so good." Orihara spoke as he inhaled Kida's neck.
"I can't stay here." Kida said as he pushed the informant away slightly. Once he sat up, he was pushed back on his back. "Come on, I'm serious."
"I'm serious too." Orihara smirked. "What's the hurry?"
Something within Kida sparked and before he knew it, he began to struggle violently.
"Aha! What's wrong? Are you mad? You should see your face! It's so cute!" Orihara mocked.
"Shut the hell up already!" Kida yelled as he attempted to push the informant off.
"I can't believe you're still lively after what happened last night! Perhaps we should do a repeat of that." Orihara grinned evilly.
"No! Stop!" Kida yelled.
The older male brought his hand down to Kida's length and began to stroke it, earning gasps and small moans from the blonde. The teen placed his hands on the informant's forearm, trying to remove his hand but to no avail.
"You're so easy to read." Orihara spoke as he gave a hard squeeze, earning a shaky moan. "No, that's not it. I just know you so well."
"U-Uh…" Kida panted. He let go of the older male's arm and threw his head back, covering his face with his arms.
"Oh don't be shy." Orihara said as he used his other hand to move Kida's arms away. "I want to see." He smirked. Orihara continued until they heard a voice from the living room.
"Izaya! How many times do I have to tell you to stop leaving the folders out!" Namie yelled as she entered the bedroom but froze when she saw the two males staring right at her. Orihara didn't look pleased and Kida turned away when he realized he was still nude.
"Namie, forget about that for now. Make breakfast will you?" Orihara spoke.
"Uh sure. I'll get right on it." Namie said as she hurried away and closed the door, leaving the two males.
"Now where were we?" Orihara turned his attention back to the blonde but cursed when he had heard the bathroom door shut.
"You gotta be fucking kidding me."
"I wasn't sure what you wanted, so I just made pancakes." Namie told Kida as he entered the kitchen.
"It's fine." He murmured as he took a seat. "Thank you." He avoided the woman's stare, still embarrassed about what happened earlier. A shade of red was still visible on his face.
"Ah Masaomi! You're finally out!" The black haired male cheered as he entered the kitchen. The blonde rested his forehead on his hand as he continued to eat.
"Can you not yell? It's too early for this. Geez." Namie replied coldly as she placed a mug of coffee on the table. Orihara laughed as he sat down.
"Namie, clean my room, will you?" The informant ordered as he took a sip. Namie didn't reply and left the room, leaving the two males in awkward silence.
"So Masaomi." Orihara began as he edged closer to the teen.
"Finished." The blonde stood up abruptly and began to leave. Before he knew it, he was pushed against the wall so he was facing the older male.
"We weren't finished."
Before Kida could protest, their lips meant and he froze as the unwanted tongue explored him. The teen made futile efforts to push the man away but he was only pushed harder against the wall in return.
"You taste so sweet." Orihara purred as he pulled away, leaving the blonde breathless. "I'll have to thank Namie later."
"Shut up! You're pissing me off!" Masaomi said as he shoved the older male away roughly. After he had realized the distance between them, he stood there for a moment before meeting Orihara's eyes. He looked surprised as well.
"Shit. I'm in for it now." The teen said to himself.
"My, you're quite lively today." Orihara broke the silence. "What's gotten into you?"
Kida didn't reply but instead lowered his head. His fists balled into fists.
"Leave me alone." He spoke firmly. "I don't want to see your face again." He looked up at Orihara. "Got it?"
Orihara didn't reply but instead folded his arms and stared back at the piercing gold eyes. Once the teen had made his point, he walked past the informant towards the door. Their eyes' didn't meet and both just stared ahead. Before Kida got to the door, he glanced at Namie who was coming out of the room with a laundry basket. He noticed his yellow scarf was lying on top of the sheets and took it.
"I'm sorry about before." Kida muttered as she shoved the scarf into his back pocket. Namie hadn't said anything back and watched the teen leave the apartment.
"Lovers' quarrel?" Namie called out as she passed Orihara who remained still.
'Tch' was Orihara's reply as he sat down and took a sip of his coffee.
It was another ordinary day at Raira Academy. At least that's what it seemed. Mikado stared off into the window, not paying attention about today's topic. Actually, he could have cared less. He wondered if his best friend was even present in school or if Orihara had taken him again.
Crap.
How could he let this happen, he thought to himself.
"Ryugamine?"
Mikado snapped out of his thoughts as he heard the timid voice.
"Oh, Sonohara."
"Class is over." She said directly. Mikado glanced around the classroom and noticed that half of the students have already left.
"Oh right." He faked a laugh.
"Is Kida in school today?" Sonohara asked. "I haven't heard from him lately." Mikado sighed and stood up.
"I wish I knew myself." Mikado spoke as they both exited the room.
"Is there something going on between you two?" Sonohara asked.
"No. I don't think so…. I hope not at least." The two of them walked together in silence before exiting the main gate when they saw a familiar face.
"Masaomi?" Mikado called out when he saw the blonde standing in front of the school's entrance. Kida's dull eyes met with Mikado's eyes. Something was wrong, Mikado told himself. Band-aids were plastered on various spots on his neck. If it weren't for the hoodie, more band aids would probably be visible Mikado thought."
"Oh, Mikado." Kida replied plainly and noticed the bespectacled girl. "I'm glad you're doing well." He smiled a little.
"How are you Kida?" Sonohara asked first, taking Kida by surprise.
"Oh you know the usual." Kida replied. "Flirting with babes and what not!" He said dramatically. Mikado could tell he was putting up the act and looked at him worriedly. "But you know Anri?" The blonde took the girl's hand with both hands and kneeled. "They may have my body, but you'll always have my heart." He stood up and finally let go of the hand.
"Masaomi?" Mikado began.
"I have to go." Kida said blankly. "I'll see you guys around." He began to walk away. "Take care Anri."
"What…Was that?" Mikado said confusedly after the blonde was several feet away.
"Ryugamine." Anri spoke. "I'm worried about him."
"Me too… Come on, we should get going." Mikado turned the opposite direction and began to walk.
"S-Senpai I'm sorry! Ack!"
Kida threw a fist at a fellow gang member and sent him off the platform where he was standing.
"Did you touch her? I swear, if anyone one of you laid a hand on her…" Kida spoke menacingly.
It had been about a week since Kida joined the yellow scarves. Since then, he was mainly focused on getting more information on the Dollars. Even Sonohara had gotten herself involved in this mess. It was revealed that she was snooping around the warehouse during the scarves meeting and since then, the gang has been trying to find her. Kida wouldn't allow it.
"I didn't touch her! I swear!" The gang member stammered.
"Whatever." Kida said as he jumped down from the stage and left the warehouse.
"I'm starting to get tired of this brat." Horada announced. "He's been acting strange lately. Perhaps he knows something." He snickered with 2 other members.
"Should we find out?" Higa asked. "We could always ask that Orihara fellow."
"Nah let it be." Horada waved his hand in disapproval. "He's too pricey. And besides, we have a leading source."
"But the general ordered us not to go near her." The gang member who was punched before spoke.
"So?" "Horada grinned. "He doesn't have to know." He and other members laughed.
It was pouring. Kida stared down as he walked through the streets with his hands in his pockets. Everyone around him walked with an umbrella except him. Passersby occasionally glanced at him because he stood out so much. Kida was deep in his thoughts as he walked. He still couldn't handle the fact that his best friend was the leader of the notorious gang. He couldn't decide if he should confront him about it. He didn't know what he should do about it. If word about it got around… God, he didn't even want to imagine it.
Now that he mentioned it, he hadn't seen the informant since their last meeting. He was a little surprised that the man had taken his word and hasn't revealed himself. Then again, why did he care? It's not like he missed him or anything.
The rain didn't let up and before he knew it, Kida was a few meters away from Mikado's residence. Kida stopped and looked at the old building. He could settle everything right here and now. He noticed that all the lights were off but this was important. The teen pulled out his cell phone and dialed his friend's number.
Ring…Ring…. Ring….
No answer. Kida closed his phone and shoved it into his pocket. He looked up at the building again and walk towards it. He removed his scarf and hid it in his hoodie jacket, exposing his band-aided neck. 'Well here goes,' Kida said to himself as he knocked on the front door. He froze when he heard footsteps approaching the other side of the door and waited.
"H-Hello?" Mikado greeted nervously as he opened the door slightly. He looked so innocent, Kida thought to himself.
"Mikado." Kida answered.
"Masaomi?" Mikado opened the door widely and examined his friend. "What are you doing? Come inside, your soaked!" The blue-eyed teen patted the blonde's shoulder, guiding him inside. He closed the door once he stepped in. "Hang on, I'll go get a towel." He said as he left the room.
Kida took the chance to glance around the room. He noticed the open sleeping bag on the floor and the computer on the table next to it. His face grimaced but lightened up when he heard footsteps.
"I'm back. Do you want to change your clothes or something?" Mikado asked.
"N-No, I'm alright." Kida replied in a low voice. He stretched out his hand to take the towel but stopped when Mikado held the towel closer. Kida gave him a confused look.
"I'll dry you, it's fine. Sit down." Mikado answered. Kida stood there for a moment and finally sat down. Mikado grabbed a chair and placed it in front of the blonde and sat. He spread the towel out and began drying his friend's soaked hair. The two sat in silence until Kida broke it.
"How's Anri doing?" The blonde asked after Mikado finished and tossed the towel aside. "She's doing fine. I walked her halfway home today."
Kida sparked and before he knew it, he pushed Mikado to the floor roughly and glared down at him.
"Mikado! What's the matter with you!" Kida yelled as he gripped the black haired teen's shoulders. "How are you going to make her walk home alone? Especially after what had happened before!" Gold eyes continued to pierce through frightened blue ones.
"M-Masaomi." Mikado replied weakly. "I-I'm sorry."
Kida's grip loosened slightly after realizing the position they were in. He eyes widened in horror.
"Y-Your right…I'm sorry. I should have realized." Mikado continued.
The blonde released the black haired teen and sat aside. When has he ever yelled at his best friend? Mikado sat up hesitantly and looked at his dear friend.
"Masaomi?"
Kida snapped out of his thoughts and looked at his friend.
"If something was wrong…you'd tell me… right?" Mikado asked with a worried expression.
Kida couldn't help but smile back at his friend. He was always such as worrywart. He laughed a little.
"Of course!" He lied. "You're my best friend. I would tell you everything." He said as he hung a arm around Mikado's shoulder.
"Is that so?" Mikado wondered. "I see then." He returned the smile. "We really miss you Masaomi."
Kida froze for a second and finally released Mikado.
"I miss you guys too." Kida lowered his head. "I'm sorry…" He said with a low voice.
"Sorry? Sorry for what?" Mikado asked confused.
"For not being a good friend."
"Talking nonsense again, huh?" Mikado smiled as Kida looked up with him with a surprise look. "I swear, every time I leave you alone you come up with weird stuff."
"Hey can I have something to drink? I'm kinda thirsty." Kida smiled weakly.
"Sure. Do you want anything in particular?"
"Any soda is fine." Kida answered.
"Alright then. I'll be right back." Mikado said as he made his way towards the fridge. Once he arrived back, he handed the can to Kida.
"Thanks." Kida said as he took a few sips. The two sat in silence while Mikado was busy rearranging his futon. Suddenly, a loud thunder was heard and Mikado jumped up. "Mikado?"
Mikado flinched at the sound of his name and laughed it off.
"Haha… That got me. Say, you should just spend the night here." Mikado suggested. "You're not thinking about walking home in this kind of weather are you?"
"I was actually." Kida replied. "But I mean if it's cause you're scared or something-"
"Great! I'll pull out a another sleeping bag." Mikado interrupted before Kida finshed his sentence. Kida put on a weak smile and looked down at his half empty soda can.
"Mikado, this soda taste kinda weird." Kida motioned the can towards Mikado.
"Really? Is it expired?" Mikado asked as he took the can.
"I'm not sure." Kida replied as he watched his friend.
"Do you want another one? I'll get one for you."
"No it's alright. I'm starting to get kinda tired." Kida said as he stretched his arms.
"Oh I see." Mikado looked down at the soda can again and took a sip. "Huh? It seems fine to me."
"Really? Maybe it's just me." Kida laughed a little.
"Well just in case, I'll just dump it out." Mikado said as he walked towards the kitchen again. Kida remained still and lowered his head as he waited. Suddenly, he heard a thump coming from the kitchen and ran towards it.
"Mikado?" Kida ran over to his friend who was slumped against the counter.
"Masaomi…I'm feeling kinda light headed…"
"Come on. You must be tired." The blonde took his friend's arm and hung it over his shoulder. "You should get some rest now."
Mikado only nodded in reply. His eyelids began to feel heavy and he could barely stand on his own. Once his back felt the futon, he began to drift into sleep. The blonde only stared down at him, watching him as he slept.
"I'm sorry." Masaomi whispered as he pulled out a pocketknife from his back pocket. He brought the knife slowly to the unconscious' boy's neck and held the blade onto his skin. "I'm sorry." He muttered again, keeping his head down. "Please forgive me."
The leader of the yellow scarves stayed still for a few moments. Everything will be over once he takes care of the Dollar's leader he thought to himself. Don't hesitate now, he kept telling himself. If he doesn't do something, someone one else will, so isn't it better this way? All this thoughts ran through the blonde's head and once the thunder roared, he jumped up and scampered away. Kida sat still in darkness as he began to realize what he was about to do.
I…almost murdered my best friend.
Tears began to fill his golden eyes as he withdrew the knife. He stood up frantically and dashed out of the building into the pouring rain.
As you can see, I skipped some parts in Anime. Mostly the ones where Anri is spying on the yellow scarves and stuff like that. I only changed up the scene when Kida stands near Mikado's house after Mikado abandoned the dollars. The story from here on won't follow the anime, at least I'm pretty sure it won't. Til then!
