Surprisingly, the more Toshiro spoke, the calmer I felt. With Ryu's body covering mine, I quickly fixed my uniform then got off the table and stood beside Ryu.Toshiro gave us a smile. The kind that meant he was superior and we'll have to bow down to him because he has something against us. I, however was already coming up with a plan. Ryu suddenly held my hand. "I'm sorry" he said, staring straight into my eyes. His dark orbs revealed just how sorry he was. "This is all my fault. I should have been more careful"I shook my head "It's okay. This was bound to happen sooner or later. We can't hide our relationship from everyone forever. Even though I was hoping we would finish high school first" Then I turned to Toshiro. "What now? You're gonna tell everyone?"He looked at me like I was asking a stupid question. "You already know so why are you asking? This is what I live for man. Fuck I can already imagine how everyone will react when they hear this. Your parents are still in town rig
"How's TJ?" I asked, carefully watching his expression. He went pale from shock and I smiled, shaking my head. "Can't believe you named him that. Toshiro Junior. How old is he this year? I think two right? Yeah, he should be two years old. A cute little boy. The caretakers say he eats and poops a lot. Wouldn't you say that his habits are...just like yours?"Toshiro quietly found a chair and his body sagged onto it. Like an old man who had hip problems. He ran his fingers through his blonde locks then sighed, not bothering to cover up anything. "How did you know? Have you been stalking me?"I shrugged. "So what if I have? Isn't that how you get your information? Mostly by stalking people? How does it feel when the same is done to you?"He chuckled. It was the sad type. The kind that showed you've been bested and there was nothing you could do. I have long known the kind of person he is and I knew he would try to turn things back on me so I didn't give him the chance."Your father is ru
I glared at him harder and he quickly spoke. "I swear! T-That night, I was busy banging some chic okay. I had no idea where you were or who you were with and why the hell will I record you and Aera? That's not my style bro""Don't fucking bro me" I snapped. "You don't need to have a motive you bastard. All you want is to be popular""But I don't need to record you fucking Aera to be popular!" he shouted as he stood up and faced me. "Being a Masaki is enough. Being friends with you and the rest of the gang is enough. I can't even believe that you would suspect me. What do I stand to gain? When the video came out, you were completely blurred. The whole school thought she was a slut and she cheated on you. I thought she was some local ungrateful whore because she had you but fucked another. I had nothing against Aera until that video was released. Believe me man. I'm not the one who did that. If I wanted to defame you, I won't go through that route"We stood face to face, eye to eye. I s
"Which looks better on me? Pink or red?" Sakura asked me, holding up two lipstick tubes on either sides of her lips. She had dyed her hair strawberry blonde and did it into two pigtails. She actually looked cute. "Both suit you" I said to her, refocusing on the game. Well it wasn't a game. Just practise. Haruto and Toshiro asked me to wait for them and give them a ride home. The only reason Sakura was with me is because Yua didn't want to talk to any of us.She pouted. "That's not a real answer Aito. I'm going on a date tonight. I need to know which one to use" I rolled my eyes. "Ask Yua"Sakura huffed and stuffed the lipsticks into her overall pocket. "I would if she would let me be around her. She's going through a rough phase right now but she won't even confide in me" That made me laugh. Of course she won't tell her best friend that she tried to force me into holy matrimony. Yua is so dumb. How could she think it would work? I shrugged. "Yua will get over whatever it is. Don't
He chuckled, looking at the little bundle of joy in my arms with warmth. He stretched out his hand and touched TJ's soft brown hair. "You know, I was mad and freaked out over the fact that she was pregnant and she refused to abort but she said she wanted to keep the baby. That she loves me and the baby was proof of it. I knew it was bullshit though. To be the baby mama of the heir to the Masaki family is a great achievement. All she wants is the money but I can give her that. I can give her anything she wants as long as she takes her role as TJ's mother. I won't let the kid live without one" I listened quietly and I could tell that he was being serious. For the first time in months, Toshiro was being real with me. He was being the person I used to know. It made me happy."The first time I held TJ in my arms, I cried. I fucking cried man. It was just life changing. I fell in love with him and I want to keep him with me Felix. I want him to grow with both his parents in the future. It
The party was in full swing by the time we got there. It kinda felt weird because it's been so long since I pushed myself through a mass of sweaty dancing half naked bodies. College parties were very different from high school parties. Here, the intake of booze and drugs weren't even hidden. We could see a bunch of them smoking weed, some were gathered around a table sniffing white stuff and bursting into laughter. Others just played the usual games."Whooooo now this is what I'm talking about!" Toshiro shouted at the top of his lungs. He grabbed a bottle of alcohol from a stranger and climbed onto a table. "Let's partyyyyyy!!!!!!"The crowd cheered with him and the DJ turned up the volume of the music. This encouraged a lot more people to join in and dance. A couple of half-naked girls climbed onto the table and started dancing with Toshiro. I shook my head as a small smile made its way to my lips. This guy would never change. Always the wild one but for some reason, I didn’t want hi
The girls glared at me and I glared back. "What? Aren't you even ashamed of forcing yourself on a guy that doesn't want you? Get out! All of you!""You heard the guy" Kaito said. "Leave. Now"They had no choice but to go. The kitchen was cleared out in seconds and I turned to Ryu with a ferocious glare. "And you, what are you doing here?""Whoa you know Ryuho?" Hyunjin asked me.I frowned. "Ryuho?"Ryu scratched the back of his head in a sheepish manner. "That's my full name. I prefer Ryu though. It's shorter"Oh. Why didn't he tell before? Anyway, Ryu suited him more."So... you know Ryu..." Kaito stated. I nodded. "He's my b -cough cough- friend. My friend. You know him too?"He chuckled, bumping shoulders with Ryu in a friendly manner. "Know him? He's a very good friend of mine. We've known each other since hi-""We need to talk" Ryu said, cutting him off as he grabbed my arm.I yanked it away, clearly angry. "You and who? After you refused to pick my calls? I don't want to talk t
“Aito!” Ryu shouted, bringing me back to reality. I blinked, once, twice, then looked at him. Worry was evident on his face. He hugged me and I buried my face in the crook of his neck, breathing in his soothing cologne. “Fuck you’re shaking. What’s wrong? Is it what I said? Don’t worry. Dai is already out of danger. The doctors said that he would be conscious soon and though his wounds will take a long time to heal, he’ll be alright. Don’t worry okay”“Okay” I whispered, though, I was worried about Dai, I was even more worried about the person behind his situation. I just hope I’m proven wrong. “Can we go see him?”“Of course baby. We’ll go tomorrow. I’ll pick you up” he answered. I pulled away and gave him a small nod. He gave a satisfied grunt then kissed me again. It was so gentle and tender. As if I was glass and he was trying his hardest not to break me. I moaned as he slipped his tongue between my lips, lightly swiping and sucking on my tongue. Fuck I needed this. I snaked my ar
We can never be together so it's better that I don't exist in this world. Ryu will be able to live happily. He won't have to see a murderer like me again.I could see everything clearly now.I could vividly understand how Aera must have felt. One can't fully understand another's pain unless the person has been through the same situation. How she felt when the video was released, I've felt it too. How she felt when she thought I was behind everything, I've felt it too. Just that, I never recorded any video but Ryu really did. Her pain, only I can fully understand.Her feelings of hatred for me, stemmed from the fact that she misunderstood me and she didn't trust me. She just assumed I did it based on my past reputation.She assumed.I suddenly hate that word.Just as I had assumed someone was plotting against me and Ryu, just to find out that it was actually Ryu.I sighed deeply. Right from time, I've been punished for someone else's deeds. I lost Aera. I had psychological problems. I
By the time Ryu was done, my body was stained with his fluids and the inside of my thighs were on fire. My skin there was delicate and Ryu was especially rough, making the place look frighteningly red. There were harsh bite marks all over my chest. Around my neck, there were even traces of blood.Although Ryu didn't do it with me, he still made the experience very painful. My eyelids felt very heavy and swollen. The result of crying too much. My throat hurt from all the screaming and begging. My arms, which were still bound by the belt were sore.I was tired. My heart was tired.Ryu came out of the bathroom, clean and fully dressed. He untied me then looked away. "Pathetic. Get up and clean yourself. You have twenty minutes. If you don't come out within that time, I'll drag you out however you are. I've wasted enough time already"With that, he walked out and slammed the door, leaving me in all the filth on the bed.That was the last straw. A sudden dull pain flashed in my head. I gro
Warning: Violation.With that, he smashed our lips together but it wasn't the usual kiss I was used to. It was hard, rough and it hurt. His tongue dug deep into my mouth and he sucked savagely.My eyes went wide as I realised something shocking.I didn't want it. For the first time in my life, I didn't want Ryu's kiss.I raised my hands to his chest and pushed as hard as I could but he didn't budge an inch. He was like a solid wall, trapping my body against the door. I tried to move my head away but his fingers moved from my chin to the back of my neck and held me in place. I was completely powerless. There was nothing I could do.This kind of kiss, filled with anger, hatred and a mad thirst for revenge.I didn't want it. It hurt too much.I bit his tongue hard and he let out a muffled groan. I thought he would pull out but he kissed harder instead. I cringed at the metallic taste of blood. So as not to let it happen again, he grabbed my jaw and squeezed. I couldn't move it let alone
I stepped out of the bathroom holding a first aid kit. Ryu was leaning on the wall by the door, making me wonder if he had been listening to what I was doing. Did he think I would try to escape?"What is that?" he asked, glancing at the box in my hands. My heart was racing with fear. What if he refused to let me treat his hand?"F-First aid" I stuttered, not daring to look at him. I chose to stare at his injured hand instead. "Y-Your hand... when you fought with dad... i-it's still bleeding""So what?" he scoffed. "You're going to help me?"I lowered my head further. "If you would let me..."The world swayed as I was suddenly grabbed by my collar and jacked up. Caught by surprise, the kit flew right out of my hands and crashed to the floor. He slammed me hard against the bathroom door, making me hit my head on the hard wood. My vision blurred instantly and I cried out in pain. It hurt. It really hurt."Just what the fuck do you think you're doing?!" he seethed. My sight was hazy but I
But, what will happen to me after? Will Mr Igarashi honour his promise and let me be with Ryu? No matter what, I still wanted that more than anything.I stood up but a wave a intense dizziness crashed over me and I felt my body falling forward but before I made contact with the ground, a familiar strong arm seized my waist and my body came in contact with that familiar body.My head was directly on his hard chest, his arm like a vice around my waist, my senses surrounded by his breezy scent and my body, soaking in his warmth.I closed my eyes and it felt like I was transported back to the past. When I had no idea who he really was. When I was just falling for him. When everything was still alright.Ryu saved me. He saved me from getting stabbed by Mr Igarashi and now, he saved me from falling.I was confused. Does Ryu hate me or not?If he does, why would he save me twice?What were his real feelings?I slowly raised my head up and our eyes met. My heart sunk to my stomach. There was
"Are you done?" Ryu suddenly asked, as if everything they had been saying was utter nonsense and he couldn't wait for them to shut up.Ryu...He suddenly chuckled then gazed at me. "I was gone for a few minutes and you manged to brainwash my own friends". He took a few steps towards me and the corners of his lips raised up a little. It was a smile that wasn't a smile. "Commendable"I shook my head in disbelief. "T-That wasn't- I-I-"Although, I shouldn't be surprised" he continued. "You have that charm"Huh? I have that charm? What did he mean?"Ryuho, you're misunderstanding" Yasu said. "Just calm down and listen to us first""Yes. Nothing like that happened" Kaito added."And how will you know?" He turned back to Yasu and Kaito. "It happens before you even know it. You look into his eyes and with just a few words, he makes you feel.... anyway, it doesn't matter. You two should leave""But Ryuho, are you really not going to give Aito a chance?" Kaito asked. "You can't tell me that al
"You think we're afraid?" Mum shouted. "We don't fucking care! Come at us with all you've got! We're the Yamamotos and there's nothing we can't handle! Ryu, if we manage to get free, just run. Run as far as you can and hide from us because if we get you, you'll wish you were never born! I'll personally grind you to dust! I will- ah!"In the blink of an eye, Ryu swiftly snatched the gun in Tobio's hand and pointed it at mum who cried out in shock. "You will what?" he asked, raising a brow. "You will what?!"Mum went silent. Her eyes were wide, staring at the gun like it would go off anytime. It was so obvious that she was scared shitless.He cocked the gun. "Speak!"That single command made us all tremble. Was he really going to shoot?"Y-You wouldn't dare!" she spat. "A-Aito won't give you what you want"Ryu laughed like it was the funniest thing he heard all day. "You know what Mrs Yamamoto, the secrets of your study are not what I want but what father wants. That's why you're still
Warning: Violence.Ryu strolled directly before dad, looking so cold that it made my heart thump with fear but dad didn't cower. He raised his head and glared at him straight on. "I've dealt with stupid kids like you" he sneered. "Inexperienced little shit heads that come crying for revenge. You think you can scare me Ryu? You think because you found out the truth that I'll what? Cry and beg for mercy? Fall on the ground and lick your feet? Beg for forgiveness?"With every word dad spoke, Ryu's frown deepened further. I had a bad feeling. A very very bad feeling. Like things would go very wrong.He chuckled. "Well you're gravely mistaken Ryu" dad continued with a smirk. "I do not regret a single action of mine. Who asked your parents to plunge into a world they knew nothing of? I was even kind hearted enough to offer them a way out. I tried to negotiate with them but no. They preferred their so called dignity over my money. You know what? Your meddling father got what he deserved. I'm
"Oh my God, Aito, I'm so sorry. So that's what Dr Desai and your mum were arguing over today" Kaito said, wiping his tears. "I didn't know. I'm sorry"I couldn't help but smile. "Come on. We didn't know each other when it all happened. What are you sorry for? Stop crying. It's all in the past"He nodded but still kept on crying. Yasu had to hug him tight. "Does Ryuho know all of this?" he asked me while making soothing circles on Kaito's back.I shook my head. "He probably doesn't. And I don't want him to know""But he should" Yasu said. "I understand why you became that way Aito. Even I don't know what will happen to me if I lose Kaito so yeah, I totally get it. And I believe you because I've seen the way you love Ryuho. He should know that you really loved his sister. He should know that you weren't behind her death""Aren't I though?" I asked. "I was careless and let someone record us. I should have been able to protect her""You can't do everything Aito" Kaito said. "How would you
