5 When Reita cornered me the next day, I knew that Uruha had told the rest about Kai’s behavior the previous night. It would seem that he himself doesn’t know what had happened.
“What happened?”
“I ended things”
“I thought you said you never got back together?”
“I ended it for good”
I know that just confused Reita more as he gaped at me.
“What the hell is that supposed to mean?”
“It means I am not seeing him anymore”
“Then you were still seeing him after you two broke up?”
“In a way”
“What the hell does that mean? One night stands?”
I couldn’t answer that, my guilt showing in the flush rising on my face.
“That was what you did, didn’t you? Damn it, Ruki. How could you? Why?”
I let him rant his righteous anger at me, feeling lower than a maggot than ever. Reita’s anger ran its course as he shoved me harshly, stalking away still cursing under his breath. That probably wasn’t the best way how this could have gone.
“What’s wrong with Reita?”
I jumped a foot up from the couch, Kai grinning a little at my violent reaction. I looked at him warily, him not showing any outward signs of distress. If anything, he seems happy.
“Something good happened?”
He just smiled, humming a little as he packed the rest of his belongings, checking and double checking whether did he leave anything behind.
“You better hurry. Everyone is already out at the bus”
That was too normal. Even for him. I watch him walk out of the room, whistling an off tune. His good mood lasted the entire trip back to Tokyo. Everyone else were surprised, especially Uruha who had underwent through the trauma of a sobbing Kai the night before. The soft sound of a phone vibrating against jeans woke me up from my fitful sleep. Turning to my side, I saw Kai from across the aisle speaking into his phone softly as to not wake up our other members, a smile tugging at the edge of his lips. I couldn’t hear anything that was said but I felt jealous then. Jealous of the person on the other side who could made him smile like this.
What is wrong with me? Am I some twisted ass who wants someone he dumps to be pining for him? No, that is not who I am. But Kai is everything to me.
He pocketed his phone, turning away from the window, catching me staring at him. A series of expression ran through his face before he settled on a small smile before he turned to again stare out of the window. There is something in his expression then. I cannot pinpoint what is it. But then it was familiar. It was like a scent from a perfumed pen, stationery, a paper, that tingles at your nose, not really there but it is indeed there.
When the bus finally stopped at our destination, the PSC building, the sun had already set and the rest of the guys were already up and awake, myself groggy from the lack of proper sleeping hours.
“Ruki, come and see this”
Aoi’s excited voice urged me to exit the bus, the first thing I see being several thigh high lighted cardboard snowmen lining the entrance to the building. The said snowmen each carry an alphabet on the hats they wore.
TOMMORROW.DINNER.8PM.OK?
“What the hell?!”
“You have no say in this. After all, you had ended it”
I bite down on my inner cheek, copper taste filling my senses, both Reita and I watch Kai speaking to Miyavi who stood at the entrance of the building, nodding his head.
Stupid cardboard snowmen.
