IDOLISH7-Don't Forget Me

Chapter 5 - The Truth

"I...don't know what you mean"Riku said tilting his head all confused

"Don't play dumb with us Riku,we know that you knew us before the accident  and that you told Sogo and Tamaki to lie about it"Iori blurted out.

"But why?Why would you hid your existence from us and tell them not to tell us about it" Tenn asked confused.

Riku lowered his head with his bangs covering his eyes without saying anything.

"Well?Answer us Riku!"Iori asked mad.

"What was I suppose to do!I dragged you guys my mess and you guys couldn't even remember my face"Riku replied madly.

"You have no idea...how I felt walking out of that hospital,and never looking back" He explained with a tear falling from his face.

"I never planned on leaving, but I couldn't stand the thought of you guys looking at me like some stranger when we worked together for two years!"Riku said lifting up his head.

The others didn't know what to say,they never thought of how Riku felt about the entire situation.

"What did Sogo and Tamaki tell you guys?"Riku asked.

"Only that Kujo Takamasa was the one that put us in that accident"Ryuu answered.

"But why did he do that"Gaku asked making everyone else start to think.

"He wanted me"Riku said silently

Everybody looked at Riku as his hand started to tremble out of fear for the man.

''Listen Riku,'' Mitsuki said putting a comforting hand on his shoulder looking at his friend with  eyes that spoke protection, ''We will not let him take you away from us again, okay?''

When Riku heard Mitsuki say that, it reminded him of something that Mitsuki told him a long time ago making him suddenly feel uncomfortable with and jerk away from his friend

"It can't..be.?"Riku said confused.

"What wrong Nanase-kun" Yamato asked.

"Do you guys remember...me?"Riku asked.

Riku's POV

I stared at them, wanting to know if my assumption was correct.

"Yes...we remember"Gaku confessed.

"From the minute you confessed to us that you were a part of Idolish7, "Iori said doing a weary smile.

I stared at them all, and they were smiling which then made me ask myself why was this making me so angry right?

"So, you guys thought it was okay to take advantage of my vulnerable state and use it for answers," I said with tears streaming down my face.

"It wasn't like that it's just we didn't know how to ask you what happened" Tenn replied.

"How can you guys act so calmly about this?!"I asked with tears streaming down my face.

"You know what! As you guys got what you wanted I'm leaving" I said rushing out of the hospital room with tears within my eyes.

How could they do this?

I thought I could trust them?

Was my emotions that much of a toy to them?
Urgh!
I don't care about my safety anymore, I'm just gonna walk back to the hotel and maybe buy some chocolate donuts for Deku, as an apology for worrying like this.

End of POV

"I feel like an asshole," Iori said sadly."We shouldn't have done this in the first place."

"I bet my brother hates me now," Tenn said with a frustrated face.

"You guys should have told him that you remembered everything," Sogo said disappointed eyeing them.

"Tch! But you guys just had to gang up on him!" Tamaki shouted.

"But it was Gaku's idea to do this in the first place," Yamato said adjusting his glasses.

"First you punch Riku, then you trick him, what are you going to do next?" Tamaki said.

"If you and Sogo didn't like the idea why didn't you stop us in the first place" Gaku replied pointing at them.

Both Tamaki and stood there in silence.

"See...You're just as guilty as we are" Gaku stated.

"We should go and apologize to him before he plans not to speak to us anymore," Iori said getting out of his seat.

"Yeah, but where does he live though?" Nagi asked confused.

"I and Tamaki will take you guys to his hotel" Sogo replied sighing.

"Come on then! Why didn't you say that earlier" Tenn said getting out of his chair and to the car?

Whilst the idols were on a mission to find Riku and apologize to him Riku had already arrived at his hotel suite but nothing could prepare him for what was going to happen next...

30 minutes later

Riku's POV

I went to the mall and went to that candy store, I got a box of chocolate donuts but also some King's Pudding,
I may be mad at Tamaki for what he did with the others but I am thankful that he introduced me to this yummy dessert.

As I had gotten to the door I came to find it unlocked...Why didn't Deku lock the door? When I walked inside I came to find everything trashed,
Pots smashed and broken furniture strewn across the floor.

No way...what in the hell happened here?And Deku! Where is he? His shoes are at the front door so where is he.

"Deku, where are You?"I shouted running to check every room until I noticed that I had stepped into something when I looked it was blood

I almost fainted at the amount on the floor but it was all leading into one room...my room, I carefully walked around the blood trail and followed it to where it led to, and when I turned the doorknob to open the door which revealed, Deku body which was beaten up but then noticed he had been stabbed multiple times with something I dropped the candy bag and ran to Deku.

"Deku what happened? Deku please wake up"I shouted as held him in my arms

"Listen Riku" I heard Deku breathe out."Kujo Takamasa was here, he wanted to know where you were."He said coughing out more blood.

"Stop talking I need to stop the bleeding" I commanded as I took a look at the wound which showed some horrible stab wounds.

"You know that it is too late for me" Deku stated.

"Don't talk like that!" I replied with tears streaming down my face.

"I have no regrets for this and neither should you Riku," Deku said wiping away my tears.

When he said that...Those were the last words I heard him say.
