Y/N's Point Of View
"who would've thought that i've met you the moment you were drown with sadness, y/n? "
"huh? what do you mean? "
"look at you, you're smiling right now ... because of me."
my eyes just stared at his dark orbs for a minute. it illuminates the shinning stars in the darkness, which made my heart wanted to erupt in any second. the calmness of ocean waves was seen behind him. i pursed my lips as i broke down our stare for a moment.
"i don't know ... i feel that you're so special to me that i place you in my heart." he added. that was it. it was the feeling. the feeling that my heart wanted to know.
"if you say so ... you're also the one who feel special on me, mikey." his eyelids flutter as he stared beneath the sand.
my lips started to purse when i saw him smiled.
"heh ... so everytime i teased you, you still considered me as special? " i couldn't help but smile on his joke. mikey never made me mad of fear me at all the time. that teasing bond we made was just made me more get to know him.
"yes ... " i nodded when my hand rested on the sand, playing with the tiny seashells scattered on the ground. the night started to get cold, but it did make me warm because of his words.
"thankfully, i had you by my side." together with him made me forget everything. ever since i've met him in the tama river, he made me caught my attention away.
even though i'd never smiled that day, he always gets to know me deep inside. he's the one who made me changed in this world. he was also the first ever friend i've met that i don't want to break off. i wanted just to be near him, just him. my imagination began circling deeply within thos flashing smiles. his sincere and dull eyes swallowing my emotions to let go in it.
a sudden electric touch feels when his hand snaked down through my hand playing the sand. the butterflies on my stomach was begging to play and my heart pumped so bad. it was the familiar feeling i've ever felt lately.
it occur when mikey was closer to me.
our eyes met again as he leaned slowly near my face. the moonlight started to shone in the darkness between us.
it was like a love story in a fairytale. but this one, he was making me damn nervous.
we were just kids.
i'm still not ready into this.
but right now, he's making me pull closer to him.
before our lips could touched, his breath then stopped inch closer through my face. our forehead touched when he snaked his hands around my neck.
"promise me you’ll always be by my side. " i could feel his ragged breath onto mine, and his shaky hands that i didn't realized that i was squeezing already because of the moment.
"i will." i immediately fall into his chest when i let go, catching off my breath because of the feeling. i could feel his heartbeat rapidly increasing when he closed his eyes and embraced me for a moment. the silence of the night engulped us after it happened.
we almost kissed.
it was the first time that i felt bad at the same time was happiness.
how long does this story will it takes?
it was already clear that we already liked each other but how come it all made into this?
"y/n-chan? "
the first time my eyes started to open, it was all blurry and all i could see is white and the blinding lights. my hands and legs are so numb that i couldn't feel it anymore and my body felt so heavy that i slept for almost a year.
my eyes landed on the soft locks of peach eyes and hair sitting beside me.
"h-how are you already? i will call the doctor." she said as she's about to stand up on the chair. but then even if i couldn't feel my hand, i gathered up my strength to reach it and stop her.
"w-where's my brother? " it was just a whisper. it also feels like i've lost my voice. i really feel so weak right now.
just what happened all of a sudden?
i was ... alive?
hina's lips pursed as she sat back down. her eyes seems like worried and her fingers are fidgeting.
"t-the battle of toman and valhalla is right now, y-y/n-chan." she said, looking away and fidgeted her fingers.
my heart suddey beats in seconds and my eyes widen.
today?
"how long i was been asleep? " i asked. it was just that cold morning on september when kiyomasa helplessly stabbed me on the street. i didn't know he just suddenly jumped out of the scene and attacked me.
that moment.
i thought i will already die.
but then he came.
"it was already one month, y/n-chan when you fell into a coma. i'm the one whose currently taking care of you y/n-chan ever since takemitchi was in the gang." hina said, her eyes looks so worried as she looked at me. i wanted to thank her for taking care of me for a while.
hina didn't feel tired on my brother even though he's a stubborn brat. my eyes landed on the clover leaf necklace takemitcbi gave her.
so is this the reason why i couldn't feel my body at all?
my eyes became dull, looking away at the necklace to the lights on the ceiling as i just wanted to become blind.
i'm not ready what to see again.
i totally missed it. the feeling that you just can't let go of something is equal on losing a puzzle pieces on the puzzle board.
and my mind was having the anxiety whenever i think of them ... hoping that they succeed the war safely and peacefully. but it was all just my expectations.
that gang fight is a war in-between two ex-bestfriends who become enemy.
i couldn't just lie in here.
i wanted to see everything.
including mikey.
"y-y/n-chan?! what are you doing?! " hina frowned when i started to agrressively pulled out the dextrose in my hand. my feet and hands were numb and i couldn't control my muscle properly but i forced myself to have my last strength to run away.
"y/n-chan!! come back!! you're still not healed! " hina shouted when i immediately reached the hallway, unable to walk well. i could feel my knees trembling and my feet are shaking so i find a closer wall to support myself to fall.
i was still on my hospital gown but i didn't bothered it. that's when i didn't know that i have a wound right on my stomach. my eyes shut immediately when i held it because of pain. it sti didn't heal though.
sweats started to bead on my forehead when someone had already noticed me.
"ma'am, where are you going?! " the nurse panicked when she saw me in the hallway. some of the patients and people right there were started to stare on me but none of them i didn't care either.
"n-no ... " i rudely slapped the nurse's hand before i continue running away when i heard hina's voice outside.
"y/n-chan!!"
i'm sorry, hina.
the nurses outside started to panicked and widen their eyes. some of them had even chased me, but even though i couldn't control my body ... i gathered up my strength just to freed right there.
i needed to go. i needed to see them. i needed to fight also for them. i need to protect my brother right there. i needed to fight for mikey.
it was unfair but then i owed him a lot.
he saved me that day i got stabbed.
because if he didn't ...
i'm already on my burial ground right now.
Takemitchi's Point Of View
all of the fears startes to subside when mitsuya-kun and chifuyu helped me a lot. i needed to finish this ...
"DAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!! LET'S FUCKIN' DO THIS!!!"
i began to startled when a punch just landed on my face. it began to blur my sight but then my fist forced a punched towards them. i didn't care. i can carry all of this pain.
all i could in my life was just run away. that's why people behind me started to broke apart, i can't take care of them.
because if i can't overcome this...
then i can't stop the worst future from happening!!
the chaos still continue, some of the toman and valhalla members are already lying. the dust was scattered beneath the air as they striked their feet and getting forced on the ground. draken-kun's bruised face was now facing hanma a few meters away from us.
"ahhhh! "
"fuccck! my nose hurts!"
"goddamn! how strong is that girl?! "
my head scrunched up. something was off. half of the toman members right now is losing. i just heard faint punches and the toman and valhalla member's attention were caught by someone.
"yaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!"
i almost lie on the floor again if chifuyu didn't protect me behind. a valhalla members was about to attacked me again.
"she's coming..."
someone uttered those words that made me confused. i was just the one who heard that but i couldn't figured out who they were determining to.
"we're already at a disadvantage in numbers, with toman 150 versus valhalla's 300. but they're older than us. even if we captains can handle them, the guys below us can't." mitsuya-kun explained and looked at the people.
"draken! get a hold of yourself. you can't win if you start panicking!!" a toman member that is beaten confront him. his face was full of bruises right now because of hanma's unending blow on him.
"you can't win if you start panicking!!" he also warned them. i swallowed hard when i saw the valhalla's smirked towards us.
the fear suddenly eaten me up again.
why is this happening again?!
"i wish i could do a damn thing about it! like you and mikey are. but we're not strong... i'm sorry!" the man sobbed while he said
those words.
my mouth had agaped. yeah.
we were just weak. we couldn't control except everything just like how mikey and draken-kun had protected everyone. suddenly, a single tear escaped my eye seeing the pity man crying his heart out.
"i'll protect you, guys." i closed my eyes when i started to feel my heart bursted out.
'protect everyone even in the vulnerable times' y/n-chan's words rang through my mind.
"what's-a-matter draken?! come and get me already!!" hanma shouted as he was enjoying this war like it was just a normal gang fight. his lips were wide, grinning above through his ear like he was honored to fight with draken-kun freely.
"shit! we're losing morale!"
some of the toman members sprawled on the floor again and suffering from the pain they got from their bodies.
valhalla members started to circled draken-kun that made me feared again. shit! this isn't good! some of them maybe doing some dirty tricks that could harm him and lose the fight!
"RAGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!"
fuck all of the valhalla members! i just wanted this to end!
"come and get me assholes!!! no way in the hell taking me down. i'm gonna finish this fight, you'll see. I'M GONNA KICK ALL YOUR ASSESS!!" my lungs started to burn as i couldn't gathered my breathe anymore because of exhaustion. my sight started to blur and was about to fall but then mitsuya-kun had caught me before i land on the ground.
"not to shabby, takemitchy." he tapped my shoulder as i heard his chuckle within his breath.
i didn't knew that i was out of my limit. damn! this is really what i feel everytime i overdo my fight and cry.
the fight still in-tact beneath the place and i didn't know what was happening. i just heard about mitsuya-kun's conversation with mitsuya-kun for a while.
"draken, they're fine now!" mitsuya-kun smiled.
"looks like they didn't needed protecting after all. time to go on the offensive... you've opened my eyes, takemitchi." draken-kun said and then looked at me.
my head was started to spun around and my body couldn't react anymore. darn! i needed to witness and i'm not done with this fight!
"seems like you needed help right there."
"huh?"
am i just hallucinating because i just heard my sister's voice again?
my eyes forced to looked up above to see what was happening. i could feel the atmosphere filled with silence but then my body shattered up while my back was resting in a pile of cars. the bruises on my body was blocking my eyesight so i couldn't moved it for a bit.
"toman's muse?! "
