Kido's Blindfold Tales
Kido's Pov
"What did I do...?" I mumbled while sitting on the cream chair. I couldn't really understand this. "Did he just... Kiss me?" I shook my head to calm myself down. He came to my house and I told him everything. How I died, my eye power, everything. Almost. I hugged him, and he hugged me too. Then, we kissed. I was so embarrassed, and he left. why did he leave?
I picked up my phone. "Hey, Seto. Where are we meeting each other tomorrow?" I heard a small giggle. "at the park." I sighed. "Okay, thanks... Can I tell you something?" there was a pause. "sure, what's up?" I blushed, even though he couldn't see me. "I sort of... kind of... Kissed Kano?" I said it more like a question, like an idiot. "Oh, yeah. Kano already told me. Are you okay? Do you like him-s?" He slurred. "What. He told you!? Damn it... he should just leave school! okay, no he shouldn't but...Sorry Seto, I have to go." I put the phone down. "This is so embarrassing!"
The Next Day, 6th August
Shintaro sat with Ene in the park, waiting of the rest of the gang. He wore his usual red jersey and Ene had a blue one, the matched perfectly. "Hey, Hibiya!" Ene shouted to the young boy wearing a blue hoodie, he was walking with konoha and Haruka. "Hi, Ene." He said in a monotone. Soon Takane, Kuroha, Seto and Marry were standing in the park with the rest of the group. "Only Momo, Kido and Kano left, right?" Haruka asked the group. "Yeah, That will be fun to see..." Takane replied, grinning as she yawned.
"Why will it be fun to see?" Konoha asked, he was a bit dazed. Shintaro turned to him, patting his shoulder. "They kissed." Konoha tilted his head. "Momo and Kido?" some of the gang burst into laughter, others shook their head at the stupidity of the red-eyed boy. "Kido and Kano, not Kido and Momo, dumbass." Kuroha told him. "I think it's nice." Marry mumbled to herself. "Hey, There's Kano!" Seto waved. "Kano! Over here!" He started to run towards them, wearing his black/dark brown hoodie.
"Yo." he grinned. No-one said anything for a while until Takane tried to make the situation less awkward. it failed. "So, Nice weather, eh?" There were nods of agreement, but no-one said much more until Momo came.
"Hey! Kisaragi! Sup'?" Kano greeted her. Momo smiled. "Kano..." she burst out laughing, thinking of what will happen when Kido gets here. "What's so funny? Is it my amazing face?"
Kido walked up to the group, feeling happy at her new found friends, no worry on her smiling face. She wore a purple iPod hoodie and even Kuroha with his self-proclaimed ' No sense of style' Had to say that it was cool. "Hello, People." She smiled. "Okay, Let's waste no time! Do you all have some lyrics for your songs?" Everyone said 'Yes' in unison. "May i see the them? If you have wrote them down, Kuroha?" He nodded his head. "One time Kido, get your head out your ass." She grabbed his head with her arm, the boy now in a headlock. "Don't get cocky with me, Kid." Everyone laughed, except Konoha, Hibiya and Shintaro, they smiled.
Kido had finished reading all the lyrics, a few of them she found really pretty, Such as Hibiya's which seemed to tell the story of someone in a car accident and Hibiya watching. Konoha's seemed to be a lot like it, but a little different. Marry's was about waiting for a good future, and someone 'Knocking on the door'. Seto's was about stealing the thoughts of others, and running away to the forest, and finding someone, they were so obviously connected it was hard to read, they belonged together.
"Well, these are... Nice." She told the group. "Good work guys! On Monday we are going to at least attempt to start making the words into real music. How does that sound?" Shintaro stood up. "But isn't that a little soon to be actually making these songs?" Ene pushed him. "Silly Shin-Shin! If we don't do it now, we never will!" Shintaro agreed. "Yeah, I get it, But still..." Konoha raised his hand. "Uh, excuse me? Can we go buy some food?"
They all went to somewhere they could get some food and sat in the largest table, because there were 11 people in the gang. "This is nice!" Haruka exclaimed while munching on his various meaty foods. "Thanks for always being so awesome, Danchou!" Momo said. Kido moved her head back. "Thanks Kisaragi." It was a good day for Kido, untill everyone left and Kido was left alone with Kano.
They walked along the street, not talking. It was too awkward for Kano to bear, so he said something. "Kido, I'm sorry, if you want you can kick me, I shouldn't have kissed you, and I shouldn't have left, I'm really- Ah! What was that for?" Kido had kicked him, and now she had her head down. "You idiot... Are you saying kissing me was a mistake?" He moved back. "No, I... I'm not but if you don't want me around any more, If you hate me then I understand, I'll-" Kido pushed him against a wall. "Idiot! I want you around! I didn't want you to leave yesterday! Yet you...You're Such and Idiot!" Kano stopped breathing for a second.
"I...Like you a lot...You're a nice guy..." Kido looked to the side, blushing. "I love you." Kano was wide-eyed and stunned. "Kano..." No answer. "Kano." Silence. "Kano! Say something!" He snapped out of his daze and embraced her. "I love you too! I did since I found you crying that day, I realised that even people that act tough can be sad. No wait! I realised, You are really kind-hearted, and cool. I love you, Tsubomi." Kido smiled, into his black hood. "It's Kido, Idiot."
The next day, Kano spent his day in Kido's house, telling her how beautiful she was, making her throw things at him while shouting 'Idiot!'. Once she even threw a glass, much to Kano's luck, it didn't hit him. They also talked about their pasts, and yes, they cried a little, but they were better people after, stronger. Kano also got Kido to have a song, but no Video, those were the conditions. They even sang and worked on their songs together. Kido called it 'the most fun I've had in years!' And Kano just smiled back. Before they knew it, Monday had came and it was time for school again.
Monday, 7th August
"Yo,yo, Kano! Shuuya-san is here!" Ene pointlessly tried out some new form of greeting. "Ene-chan, that's cool!" He replied as the people sat down in the classroom marked 1:07 and started talking. "Why is this a maths room, even thought we are a music club?" Kuroha thought aloud, Kido feeling slight embarrassment. "Th-that's a good point... Ene! Why did you suggest this room!?" Shintaro protested. "Oh, do you really want to start this!? how about I tell our lovely friends about the horrific content on your computer!? would you like that, Shintaro!?" Ene blurted this out so loudly, no-one could resist the laughter. "Ahh!? Huh? N-no... why would you say that!? This is the worst! The worst!" He buried his hands in his face. "N...no..."
After some laughing and jokes about Shintaro, Kido got serious. "All right, did anyone even attempt to make a part of their song?" Shintaro, Seto and Hibiya said they did work on it. Shintaro picked up a guitar and play a rhythm that was slow and soft. it was nice and hard to explain. it had a note, then went higher four times, before going down. he also sang the words.
"During these fleeting days, where nothing ever happens
I sit in the same seat as always.
"Well then, what do you think?"
As if attempting again,
The textbook without numbers said something.
If you're asking about my results
Well, they're fine I guess.
On this scrap paper was a 100% perfect score.
While grinning shyly,
You sat down on the chair next to me,
You, the one with a low grade.
Outside the window, there's nothing that I wish for
Because I'll already know what will happen.
"Hey, if that's how it is, then that's really boring."
You always seemed so cheerful.
Don't touch
The heart that wants to disappear anymore than this.
Today too, it can't be found anywhere on this earth.
The alarm starts ringing says to the alone me:
"You're a cold-hearted fool."
Even if I'm told a miracle answer
It's no use because everything will somehow become obvious.
"If I died right now, someone would replace me."
Even just muttering that
is so foolish."
After he stopped, Momo shook her head and Marry had tears in her eyes. "Shintaro..." Marry looked at him. "Are you okay?" He smiled and shook his hand in front of his face. "Yeah, yeah, It's nothing." He put the guitar down, and sat on his seat. Seto got his own guitar and smiled at Marry. She blushed. "Okay, lets go!" He started to play his guitar, making a faster, melody. It stayed like this then got moved to a lower pitch, then went up, and lower before he created a strange amount of noise from just his guitar.
"Today, too, the voice pulled at me
flowed into me as I melted
I stole the psyches of others
Everyone hated me for being strange
Let's escape, fly away
here, I can't even breathe
Avoid the eyes of hatred in the city
I quietly dashed along to somewhere…
In the silence of the wandering forest
with no destination in mind
Again, I was scared
and there was someone waiting for me
I could hear it
"Today, too, I'm waiting for a lightly sketched 'today'.
Anyone, please, help me, I'm lonely"
"The voice of my thoughts" was of the
hesitant boy I was yesterday
"Are you afraid of 'hearts'?"
"Do you lack the 'courage' to change tomorrow?"
"That's not true" came the faint knock
of the story that I cautiously
opened up
The crouching girl said
"Yesterday, today, and the day before yesterday
I had a dream that
this wide world was easily crumbled."
That feeling of "I'm scared"
The teary voice of "It's hard"
But what if we could be saved
like in a picture book?
The feelings that budded today
knocked with a small voice
I want to tell you
"Even so, it's alright. Don't cry, okay?"
If I could embrace and laugh with
The heart of "the voice of my thoughts"
I think that a "heart that rescues hearts"
could be called "courage""
They all looked at him, then Marry, and just knew it was about her. "Go Seto! That was super!" Marry cheered from the sidelines. "Thanks, Mary!" He picked her up, smiling. "You practised too, didn't you?" She blushed, much more than she usually did. "Ah, I uh... No..." Then Takane stood up suddenly. "If any-one, and I mean any-one says anything about this, I swear you'll regret it for the rest of your short, boring life." She randomly burst into song.
"As I Finally came to, a young love at first sight,
I'm not really interested in that...
So,I wonder... Why can't I look you in the eye?
Well, It doesn't matter, because...Ahh... How irritating!
Glaring at the sun
I found, while hiding this throbbing heart.
Ah, i can't supress this emotion it makes me sick!
I wonder why? what a strange feeling...
My face is like an open book.
for some reason i get so nervous, that my voice even squeaked!
what's wrong with me!? this is pissing me off!
I'm such a fool..."
The group was silent. Takane hid her face behind her arms. Kuroha sniggered. "Uh, pfft. Taka...ne? s-sounds like... your talking about... Haru-" She lunged towards him, tables falling as she did. "AHHH! Shut up, Shut up, Shut up! I don't know what you're saying! Ah!" She shook her head. "No,no,no,no,no,no!" Kano clenched his stomach, curled over, holding back his laughter as best as he could. "Do you have to do that, kano?" Kido asked him, placing a hand on his shoulder. "I really, really Do!" He put up his two fingers, in a peace sign, also sticking out his tongue. "Heh, heh!"
"Idiot..."
