21 Questions | Tenma Sumeragi

Warning: Angst

"But then what?
Would you get tired of my time?"

___

Tenma Sumeragi sighed as he rubbed his temples. It was a rare instance to see his overconfident persona deflated and that didn't sit well with his roommate, Yuki.

"Hey, hack!" Yuki called out. No response. Yuki couldn't help but sigh at the gloomy feeling hanging around their room.

"The hell is your problem?" Yuki asked, slightly concerned, though he wouldn't admit that. Tenma just groaned in response and turned over on his side, hiding behind his pillow.

"If you don't stop this, I'm telling director something's wrong with you." Yuki said, rolling his eyes.

I wish there was a situation to be mad at
Or a person I could blame

"Leave me alone." Tenma groaned out a response.

The orange haired teen couldn't help but reflect upon these past days that left him on a turbulent state of mind.

I've got a loud mouth, I'm pale with a ghost obsession,
But behind the scenes with her I'm playing 21 Questions

It all started with a game of 21 Questions. A simple, innocent game of 21 Questions in the middle of their shoot.

In the middle of the game, Tenma asked his co-star, [Name] [Last Name] a question he already knew the answer to.

I never have to
Carefully shape sentences
When I've got some words to say,
They're falling from my mouth from the time
That they hit my brain

"Are you single?" Tenma regretted the question as soon as the words fell from his mouth.

Tenma knew she had a boyfriend as of the moment. He knew.

"Yup, I am!" [Name] said with a laugh. Tenma furrowed his eyebrows at this but smiled at her nonetheless.

If he's being honest with himself, what they did might have been a mistake. A mistake he wasn't ready to take the consequences for.

Cause we built a picture made for frames
We live in chemistry away from all the wasted time and taste

Not long after their shoot, headlines appeared, one right after another. Headlines that contained a few sentences along the lines of "Actors Tenma Sumeragi and [Name] [Last Name ] Now Dating?"

Within a few days of their newfound relationship, they were the picture perfect couple of the television. They were perfect.

But then what?
You dropped your guy and took me on,
It's everything I wanted,
But then what?
Would you get tired of my time?

As the days go by, Tenma's well kept confidence deflated bit by bit as his insecurities started creeping in.

It was everything he wanted. He got the girl of his dreams yet something wasn't right. Would [Name] drop her like she did with her previous boyfriend? Would she drop him if she got tired?

My mood's dictated by our conversations,
And if you don't text I get too frustrated
I want you all to myself this time

Tenma knew he was in too deep. There was no turning back now that he's reached this point. His mood and behavior depends on [Name] and only [Name].

His phone's notification theme resonated throughout the room, almost unheard because of the constant buzzing Yuki's sewing machine was producing.

It was a message from his manager, a simple "what does this mean?" with a link attached. The link was an article titled "Is Tenma Sumeragi and [Name] [Last Name]'s Relationship Over?"

Tenma scrolled through the article until his eyes landed on a familiar face that wasn't his own.

Reflected in his violet colored eyes was a picture of [Name] [Last Name] with another man that wasn't Tenma.

So his fear did come true, huh?

Tenma sighed for the umpteenth time this night. It was the only thing he has been worrying about for the past few days.

Maybe she got tired of him. It hurt, it honestly did but he'll do his best.

An exasperated sigh escaped his lips and he closed his eyes and let his phone drop to the floor.

This was all to much, it was the thought that crossed his mind as a single tear slipped from his eye.

I'll forget you if you need me to,
Like nothing ever happened

My sun still sets without you,
Like nothing ever happened
