Everyone had just finished breakfast. Kiyoteru had also gone, because he is a teacher after all. Yuma came out of his room with his uniform on, nibbling on some bread, while buttoning his uniform.
"Yuma, aren't you supposed to be at school already?" I ran up to him, "and eating in your room will bring ants, you know that."
"It's fine…" Yuma finished buttoning his uniform and took out the bread in his mouth, "both eating, and school wise."
"What is that supposed to mean?" I questioned.
"Food, because I won't drop anything, and School, because the new kid always gets away with stuff," Yuma pointed out.
"You really are carefree," Gakupo walked out from the living room behind me.
"And you care?" Yuma glared at Gakupo.
"If you worry Kaito, of course I care."
Ah, they're at it again… I sighed, "Yuma, just hurry up for school…"
"I know, I know…" Yuma finished the rest of his bread and headed out the door, "see you later, sempai!"
"Goodbye," I smiled at Yuma. He seemed to be ok. Maybe I worried for nothing.
"He forgot his lunch," Gakupo stared at the pink cloth-covered box on the table.
"Ah~ Gakupo, why didn't you tell him!" I pushed Gakupo out the door, grabbing the lunch box, "give it to him."
"Why?" Gakupo complained.
I glared at Gakupo, "you wouldn't have had to do this if you only had told him…"
Gakupo flinched, "...fine…"
I smiled at Gakupo as he took the pink box. Gakupo sighed and began his way towards school. I quietly closed the door, "I hope they can get along better…" I walked towards the laundry room, "I should start cleaning then."
.
I walked back into the living room and sat down on the couch, "finally done…" I sighed. I stared outside the window. Maybe I should walk to the school and see everybody… I got up and headed to my room. I better change clothes before I leave. I opened my closet and picked out a simple outfit. I grabbed a small blue backpack with everything I need when I was out and headed out the door. I should be able to meet Gakupo on the way there. He'll probably be angry if I find him almost home and ask him to walk to the school with me, I laughed softly. I locked the door and dropped the keys into my backpack, zipping it up.
I walked silently to the school. I wonder where Gakupo is… I'm already halfway there… he must really be taking his time to give Yuma his lunch. Well, I guess he doesn't have to hurry because lunch doesn't start right away… I could see the school covered by the tall trees. I continued silently, "I wish that Gakupo, or somebody was with me…"
"Anybody would do right?" A voice I didn't know spoke.
"W-who are you!" I turned around quickly.
A group of thugs stood in front of me. Three poor looking men, "you don't need to know."
I backed away slowly, "don't come closer, I'm warning you!"
"Warning us? What are you going to do? Sing a little song for us?" They teased.
My body shook, "t-that…"
"Oh look, he's shaking like a dog. Are you cold?" The larger man out of the three laughed.
"You're cold? It's ok…" the man, probably the leader, put his grabbed my shoulders, "we'll warm you up…"
"N-no…" I stared at him. I felt as if I was going to cry. Not again…
The men laughed, their breath smelt of the sewer.
I tried to free myself. I wasn't strong enough, "Gakupo…"
"Who's that? Your boyfrie-" The man teased, but interrupted with a fist.
"Why couldn't you have called my name?" Yuma stood in front of me glaring at the three. He cracked his knuckles angrily.
"Y-Yuma-kun!" I hid behind him, tears forming in my eyes.
Yuma looked back at me and sighed, "well, whatever… if this happens again, I'll make it so you would say my name…"
"You think you can beat us?" The skinniest man laughed.
"Just hand over Little Miss behind you and we'll let you live," the leader suggested.
Yuma straightened up, gritting his teeth, "If I hand over Little Miss, you'll let me go, huh?"
"Yuma-kun?" I looked up worriedly.
Yuma laughed, "I rather get taken apart piece by piece than hand over sempai!" Yuma calmed himself and glared up at the thugs, "especially, if it you wimps I have to hand him over to."
"What did you say!" The three scowled at Yuma.
"I don't like repeating…" Yuma brought his fist back and ran forth.
.
"You really are something…" Gakupo leaned against my room's door staring at Yuma who was getting treated.
"Hmph, wouldn't you have done that too?" Yuma closed his eyes, responding to Gakupo.
"Either way, that was dangerous Yuma-kun," I dabbed medicine on the small cuts he got, "but… thank you."
"It's nothing, we won't let anyone touch you…" Yuma spoke softly, for me had some cuts around his mouth.
"He's right," Gakupo added, "if you need help, come to us."
They're agreeing for once… I nodded back at Gakupo, "ok… I will."
Yuma stood up once I finished treating him and headed out of my room, "goodnight."
"Ah… goodnight, Yuma-kun…" Leaving so suddenly… Gakupo walked into my room once Yuma left.
"He doesn't seem happy," Gakupo sighed.
I nodded sadly, "I don't know why though…"
Gakupo looked at me, smiling, "maybe he's jealous."
"Such a stupid reason… I already told him not to act like that," I sighed and closed the first aid kit.
"He can't help it," Gakupo sat on the bed next to me. I sat back down next to him after putting away the aid kit. Gakupo laid down on my bed, "because he feels as if he is so behind…"
I stayed silent. At this point who do I like better? Gakupo or Yuma? I laid down next to Gakupo, back towards him. I couldn't choose… But, I know I will have to choose sooner or later… Gakupo reached over me to turn off my light then laid back down. He hugged me from behind, quickly falling asleep. I could feel his warm breaths on the back of my neck. I closed my eyes, still thinking of who I would pick, I fell asleep.
