65. Is This Yours?
" We, as the social services help kids and teens in abusive situations, we help in the hard times and keep helping the teens move forward. We get them in a better home, a better school.. and we help them when they try to stop the pain by self harm; trying to stop them from doing so to themselves..." A man spoke out over a loud speaker to an adsembly of people, men, woman, teens and older people. All in the same category,
To help..
They all had been there since early that morning and some were squirming in pain from sitting so long in the same spot. Now the time was drawing to a smaller close and some people were pulling out their phones, putting their notes away or trying to get more notes in before the teacher shut his mouth.
Silver Kaito Grunted to himself as he moved slightly in his seat, his tail twinging in pain from the position he was in. His arm laid lazily on the chair he was sitting in, a notepad sitting on his lap.
The man kept talking and the teen felt his eye twitch slightly from the fact he had been talking for five hours and he was stiff and hungry. Plus his friend had been texting him non stop and he almost chuckled at the black haired girl,
The seventeen year old whined as his stomach growled, He swore. A nice juicy piece of meat with Sasamocho sounded good right abotu now. He skipped the lunch break they took, and yesterday he was browseing the health center and had to stop this pregnant girl from being eaten.
He mentally rolled his silver, metallic eyes and brushed some red hair out of his eyesight. He tried to move his legs as a cramp went through him and he bit back a whine. Another Social worker beside him by the name of , ' Akura-Ou, Also known as Kirihito for short, Was tapping his pencil in a repetive way, annoying the fox and making his ears pin.
He had about reached his limit but the man at the front dismissed them and he sighed out in releif and went for his shoulder bag. He grabbed it and sighed out as Kirithito poked his shoulder making him cring and look at the man annoyed,
" What?" He snapped out, he was hungry and Lily was texting him all day; she was his best friend since childhood and at times he wasn't so sure if friends was a title he was proud of; but he wasn't so sure, maybe he was just acting foolish. To him she was a good friend, thats all he needed at the time, right?
" The cases are going up and I heard you were a volunteer.." Kirihito smiled giddily before leaning back in his chair, " I've been doing this job for a while and I heard I might be your mentor in the feild, Cool huh?" He smiled and SIlver felt his ears pin slightly in annoyance. If he had to be stuck with this idiot then he'd rather be shot-again.
He huffed a bit and shouldered his bag before getting up, it surprised Kirihito to be ignored so he jumped up and started to follow the teen with a wide, innocent smile,
" The feild can be fun you know? I used to have an old Partner named Yatori but it turns out he was part of a scandel and beat kids from time to time. He got jail time so its just me and the open road, unless they team you with me that is." He smiled and Silver almost turned around, decked him and continued on his merry way.
This fool was getting on his nerves, really getting on his nerves. He was relieved when the head of the Socail group, the idiot that talked way to much? That went by the name of Ookunishi stopped the black haired ex demon and started to scold him about baggering the volunteers.
The seventeen year old sighed out in relief as he got to exit the building and quickly ran down the stairs to the main walk way. He wasn't old enough to drive but at the moment he was far to hungry. He would go get something fast, then meet Lily at her Aunt's bookstore and they would either wait for Loez to pick them up or they would walk home like they always had done; but in this side of town, that wasn't smart.
He smiled to himself at the thought really, and it was good to be stretching his feline like body after sitting down for so long, the man had talked so much that even now the lights of the sky were tuned out and the stars were not very visible beause of light pollution in the city area.
He and Lily had been friends since he was very young, They had always talked about anything and even now they were close enjoyed her company and sometimes he coduln't help but smile, just at her..
Silver sighed out and kept walking ahead, going for a fast food joint. He pulled at his phone and sighed, yeah He was a volunteer at a social services center, run by a god. He bit his lip slightly and then typed Lily back with a slight smile.
He looked up, at the long street with endless sidewalks and sighed out,
Time to get that burger..
He trembled as he laid in his hotel room, his glasses were laid on a table as he stared up at the roof terrified. What had been thinking when he got that drunk? He could barely remember anything.. Expect one thing that terrorified him and filled him with guilt.. The one thing that made him want to die from its horrirfing fact.
He only remembered his sons screams as they rang out throughout the house. The sounds of screaming and cries for help, flooding back to his mind as he thought about it. He was pale and he didn't want to move from his hotel bed at all.
He felt to weak to and the thought of it all made his stomach turn, He stared at the roof with dead eyes. He didn't know what to say or do; in fact his head was swimming in shock from what he had done.
His hands were shaking and he didn't want to see liquor again, it made him far to sick, right now he was honestly sick with himself. Hsi little boy, that always trusted him, now looked at him with hate and hurt. Tear running down his pale face, as if he felt sick with the man for everything.
He beat him and Mikage wasn't even sure if he was home right now, he didn't have the heart to see.. but it would have been the best to see, right? But then again he couldn't move. Not as of yet. He loved his son to much.. but he ruined it all at this moment.
Tomoe was sure to hate him and fear him after something like that. The father sat up sorely, not sure as what to do as he stared out the window, at the stary sky. His eyes searched the sky for answers, but sadly he saw none...
Was it even right for him to go home? When he knew an appology would get him no where? That he ruined what was supposed to be there? Mikage looked down in his hand at his wifes photo. She was holding a little boy who was smiling brightly, his violet eyes shimmering with happiness as his mother held him ever so close.
Mikage bit his lip, water hitting the photo as the man contiued to stare at it, not daring to let himself know that he was crying harshly in confusion. He knew he had pushed everything in a bad direction, but he wasn't expecting all of this to happen..
The man wept and looked back at the sky, " How many times will I break a promise?" he whispered, " How many times will the one I cared for the most in the world hate me?" He choked, " Elisa... Help me." He choked in pain, " Help ME!" He pressed his hands on the glass on the window and swallowed, the man sighed out in a shaky way,
Then he blinked when his phone rang...
Breaking the silence around him.
Areno sighed out as he leaned over his laptop and massed the bridge on his nose trying to come up with something for the school baord. He whined slightly, not sure as to what to do; which was strange for him. He ALWAYS knew what to do for things like this..
But ever since his Nephew got pulled out of school because of him.. He, He didn't know what to do anymore for the council. Plushe just started the job, which made everything all the worse.
The man bit his lip and whined slightly from a headache that was starting to form in his head, he trired to bite it all back. He tried to think straight but that was hard to do, Areno rubbed his eyes and then blinked when he felt breath on his neck and two slender arms wrap around him.
He sighed out and smiled softly and he leaned his head on one of the arms that was hugging him from behind. He heard a chuckle as Rii sighed,
" Areno.." She whispered and sighed out, " You should get some sleep." She kissed his cheek making him sigh. He was tired but the thought of laying down and trying to sleep bothered him. The male sighe dout heavily and shook his head,
" I have to finish this." He muttered and motioned towards the screen. The woman looked and he sighed out, letting her know he was tired. Rii binked and then paused,
" Why not let the dress code ease up a little?" She muttered making Areno look at her,
" You read that, all in what? Two minutes?" He muttered, his eyes heavy as he stared at her blankly. She smiled softly and then flicked his nose, making him wrinkle it up in shock as she sighed and sat on his lap,
" Baka.. It was only two shot paragraphs." She laughed and he graoned slightly in peril. he was doomed, this was his new job and he could barely keep up with it. He bit his lip at the thought before Rii started typing afew things into the laptop.
He was to weak to stop her so he leaned back whiel She sat on his lap, went through his files, Added pictures and other things that he woudl have never thought of in a while. The fox arched his brow in shock from what he saw. The proposal was beauitful and as she finished she smirked and gave him a victorious look.
The fox felt his ears pin slightly as she smiled and laughed a bit, " See.. Easy." She snorted and he arched his brow before pulling her back into his lap as she tried to stand. He buried his face into her shoudler and sighed a bit, his soft look hers and hers only.
He kissed her collar bone and sighed out before looking at her, " Thanks.. Just don't get cocky blackhead." He smiled softly and she giggled before leaning her head against his shoulder, he let his fingers brush against her shoulder in gentle strokes, a soft smile on his face.
" I love you." He whispered just out of the blue, making the woman blink and look at him surprised. He smiled softly as she brushed hair out of his eyes and she chuckled,
" I love you to...' She out her finger on his mouth as he leaned on before she snorted, " Whats the catch and why are you acting this way?" She arched her brow and he sighed out, knowing she never missed a thing as he leaned back in the seat with her on his lap.
" I guess I'm tired of loosing alot of things, like family. Lately I've been busy.." He began and sighed, ' And Your my Fiance and I haven't been saying I love you enough.. Or I haven't spent time with you enough." He muttered, " I don't want you to think I'm pulling away.. Because I love you Rii." He sighed, " Even though I dont understand why A theatre girl fell for the schools biggest jerk." He chuckled weakly and sighed,
He was surprised when she gently kissed him, letting him sigh slightly as her engagement ring brushed against his skin as she brushed her left hand over his cheek. He looked at her shocked before she smiled and sighed out,
"I didn't fall for the jerk.." She chuckled as he looked at her innocelty and confused. She bit her lip before leaning back onto him and sighing out as she thought, " I fell for the guy that.. Brought me dounuts. " She snorted, "And Made a stupid milk pun as he tried to appologize. I feel for the guy that hated seeing younger people pushed around, and I missed the guy that... even if I felt like trash after a performance? He would stand up in front of everyone and throw a flower at me.. just to grin and tell me to go on." She whsipered, " Yeah Your stobborn.. But I love that, because its you." She whispered and sighed, " And I love you."
Areno paused and smiled softly as she leaned against him,
" Well.' He muttered, " You did dump milk on my head." He snorted as Rii hit his playfully and he tried to supress a hearty laugh.
" Says the guy that lives by a gravesite." She giggled as he rolled his eyes and kissed her head, he hugged her close and smelled her lilic hair. She was his.. and he knew he didn't deserve her. He was a JERK when he was younger. Pushing pregnant woman, hating other people.. Until he realized how his sister and the other people weren't the enemy's at all.. He was. And So was his high socity parents.
Areno sighed out and held her close before she kissed his forehead and smiled. She was getting ready to tell him to go to bed but his phone rang. Surpising both of them. He arched his brow before looking at the screen and answering it, Rii still on his lap as he did so.
" Hello?" He muttered slightly in shock.
" He's coming back to school.." A gruff voice sounded shocking the Young man. He blinked in shock, his rust colored eyes widening as he sat up a bit. He hadn't heard that voice in years.. that one voice that tried to talk him out of his bad sided life; but he chose not to listen.. he knew that voice of so well..
" Inari?" He blinked and gasped while Rii stared at him shocked,
No way..
" Nanami sweetie?" Gwen sighed out as she stood in their hotel room, " You've been in the bathroom for while, are you okay?" She sighed out as Nanami tried to breath and swallow the bile in her throat.
Nanami tried to breath as she looked down at the pregnancy test she had gotten when her mom was at another booth. She had stayed careful in case of anymore demons and had hidden the test so her mother didn't see then at the time.
She had gotten two but now she was quivering as she sat on the lid of the toilet, rocking as she held her stomach and tried to keep herself calm. Both tests came out positive.. BOTH of them.
She stared at the sticks that she had peed on. She stared at the bars that were in the positive rang, her wide brown eyes shaking in fear, What was she going to do? What was she even going to think? She was to young for a baby but she wasn't..
The girl already knew that if she was pregnant? There was no way she was getting rid of it; she wanted it but then she didn't. She was so conflicted and scared to death as she looked at the stick.
" Sweetie? I'm going to come in.." The handle jiggled and Nanami panicked as she threw the sticks into the trash, covering them with wads of toilet paper before standing up as her mother opened the door.
Her mother looked at her confused before looking around the room and then back at her daughter again, " Are you okay?" She whispered before Nanami laughed out in a strained way. She nodded and smiled forcefully, but her eyes gave her away on so many ways.
" I'm fine mom.' She kissed her moms cheek before she walked past her and sighed, " Hey lets go swimming in the pool? I heard the hotel had a large one."
Gwen blinked from her daughters behavior before sighing and nodding, " Alright, Sounds fun." She smiled weakly, not sure as to what was going on or what was happening in her daughters mind at the time. It scared her but what could she really say?
Something was bothering her daughter and there was no doubt about it. She sighed heavily and closed the bathroom door to use the restroom before going to the bathtub and starting to run water, she would bath before swam.. Unlike her daughter who thought the clorine would wash her clean.
Gwen chuckled to herself before she felt something on her foot, She arched her brow as she looked down and saw a cardboard strip attached to her foot, it was on the brown side as the woman sighed and flipped it over, reading the words on the strip from a pregnancy test box.
Her eyes widen and she let the cardbaord flutter to the ground before she turned and started to look throughout the bathroom, she truly hoped it was old trash and it was just her imagination, maybe she was overworked and she had nothing to worry about..
But she caught the sight of something oddly shaped with a purple side in the trash. It had something red on it.. like a reading and the woman froze as she, Whist gagging, took the test out and stared at it in shock..
It made her eyes qiver as she sat down on the toilet seat lid, her legs weak as she looked at the reading that said..
Positive..
The woman gasped and covered her mouth in shock before the bathroom door opened,
" Hey Mom, Have you seen my bathing su-' Nanami looked but froze as her blood ran cold. She almost puked from her mothers shocked and mortified look. Her eyes were wide and then girl felt her stomach turn in shock as the woman looked at her shaking,
" Is this yours?" She whispered as she held up the stick..
This only made Nanami go even more pale..
She was screwed..
OHHH! Tomoe Got Back Into School! But Uh-OH! XD Gwen found out! XD WHat do you guys think she'll do?
1. Leave Nanami to handle it herself?
2. Try to figure it out?
3. Scream at her and tell her off for what she did?
