Evenings
Chapter 17
Dumb
Summary: Yamato and Yutaka discuss recent events. (Tri-related)
A/N: Impressions of tri. and their (probably true) implications tick me off, so I wrote this. Also, I know Yamato has a completely new band (Knife of Day ftw) but this is the headcanon and it takes place in a slight AT, so yeah.
Pairings: Implied one-sided Sorato
"She loves you. That's why she supports you."
"She just enjoys music, my company. It's not the same thing as love. She only goes because she's obligated to." (And, Yamato thought, to hang onto the last bit of rebellion she had against her mother.) "She's my girlfriend. Why should I ask her? She should just go if she wants."
"...because of what I just said. Weren't you listening?"
"They're just friends."
"But he asked her out," the red-headed drummer insisted.
"He asked her to a soccer game. Do you know how many times he's done that?"
"On the same day?"
"Saturday is a pretty common day, 'taka."
"You know... for someone who confessed his love to some girl, you sure don't show it."
"Do I need to? You're obviously filling in the blanks." There's also this little thing called lying, which, I'm sure you know a lot about. I don't want to hurt one of my best friends.
"What do you expect me to do? Ignore the fact that you're leading her on?"
"You only see a piece of what I am, my life, and it's why you don't understand me at all."
"...you're on this again?"
"Because you won't drop that."
The two men stared at each other. Fingers that strummed away turned silent.
Reflecting back, that was probably the start of the end of the Teen-Age Wolves, Yamato figured. A fight that had nothing to do with the band at all.
