11 Searching for the truth
Koichimaru's Perspective
----------------------------------------------
Mayu: "Alright i'll see you in 10 "
Me: "Alright bet"
10 minutes later Mayumu arrived with his and my group.
Ahiko: "Yo mayu you're idea for the beach was awesome, maybe you should've been the group leader instead of me"
Mayu: "I don't like being leader but i do know this place well"
Ahiko: "We'll definitely need you"
Mayu: "hahaha alright alright"
Ahiko: "You should go take some rest Mayumu"
Mayu: "I will but i have some business with my friend right now"
Ahiko: "Alright cya Mayu"
Mayu: "Goodnight"
Mayu's Pov: "Ahh now where is he"
Me: "Over here"
Mayu: "Yo what's up"
Me: "I wanna get closer to Akitake"
Mayu: "What do you mean with that?"
Me: "Aki looks like he's dead, i wanna make him fall inlove and find hope again in this life."
Mayu: "sighs alright so you need my help for that?"
Me: "Yes!"
Mayu: "ahh ok what is Akitake doing right now?"
Me: " He's sleeping "
Mayu: " Alright then we will have to talk about personal stuff, so let's go grab something to drink and we'll talk."
Me: " Alright "
After buying our stuff we went to an abandoned place, it was really dark tho so i had to turn on my phones flashlight.
Mayu: "You know this was the place where Akitake used to come when he was depressed. This was our hiding spot"
Me: "Really?"
Mayu: "Yeah... so either ways what do you wanna know about Akitake"
Me: "Everything! What was his experience in life, love, what he likes and doesnt like. That kind of stuff."
Mayu: "Alright then
Akitake doesn't like much material, he prefers being in nature and being with his loved ones. He likes reading books, cooking and sleeping. He absolutely hates when people worry about him too much.
He loves sushi and pizza and he has a sweet tooth. His favorite cake is the strawberry shortcake and he loves cherry pie. He's also verry allergic to Mushrooms."
Me: "Damn... Who are the people who care for him.."
Mayu: "Agate, Me and you"
Me: "So it's true that no one in his family cares for him"
Mayu: "Wait Akitake told you about his family- "
Me: "Yeah?"
Mayu: "He normally doesn't tell anyone, wait do you know about Alec!?"
Me: "Who, Oh wait you mean his ex that died?"
Mayu: "Shit so he actually did tell you.."
I didn't know what Zero-Mayumu meant to express at that moment but he actually looked worried.
Mayu: "Did he tell you something else?"
Me: "No? Why?"
Mayu: "Oh good "
I was confused but i didn't put much mind on it. Mayu looked at me and smiled.
Mayu: "So did you and Akitake already you know" *smirks*
Me: "Umm yea- I MEAN NO-"
Mayu: "hahaha i see you already did it with him"
Me: "STOP IT IT'S EMBARRASSING!"
Mayu: "You know Koichi you guys would be quite a good match. When i first met Akitake he was happy and he used to socialize allot but his family changed him. When he finally learned how to love again life just ripped it off like it was nothing"
Me: "oh..., honestly this is the first time i've actually wanted to take a relationship seriously. Normally i just date bitches and then dump them. i was just thinking of being friends with Akitake but i never tought i would actually feel something for a guy"
Me: "When i was a kid i used to be really close to my mother. i remember at that time we lived in Tokyo. One day me and my mother we we're walking on the streets, we we're heading home from the library when a men appeard... He was wearing a black mask over his face and told my mom to give him all the money she had. He had a knife and it was pointing to my head, my mom tried to protect me by moving and he stabbed her dead on her chest. I had no choice but to go to live with my father. I've never met my father so it was weird when i saw him for the first time.. After that i had to move to New York wich it was a totally new experience for me. Now i just came to study in Chicago but it ended up being like a home"
Mayu: "Oh... sorry about all of that, i didn't know you went trough all of that"
Me: "It's fine don't worry about it"
Mayu: "Yo i'm kind of tired i think ima go and take a nap"
Me: "Oh alright"
Mayu: "Oh and Koichi you better get fumi to love you before it's too late"
Me: "umm ok"
Mayu: "Alright cya"
Me: "Bye.... "
Mayu left and i stayed outside thinking about what Mayu said. "What did he mean by before it's too late?"
"Hey what are you doing out this late", a timid and cute voice asked. "Aki you should be resting!"
Aki: "Koichi are you ok?"
"I'm fine Aki", i said with a smile on my face.
Then he came close to me and gave me a hug. "It's ok Koichi i'm here for you", i couldn't hold it in anymore and started crying while being in Akitake's small and soft arms.
Aki: "What's wrong Koichi?"
Me: "Let's just stay like this please"
Me: "Alright"

Akitake's Perspective
It was 12 Am, I helped Koichi so he can sleep. He told me everything that happened in his life and i still can't imagine how much he had to suffer in his life. Then i got a notification, it was from Mayu. He said to meet him at our old hideout.
I put on my jacket and went. When i arrived i saw Mayumu standing.
Me: "Mayu...?"
Mayu: "Tell me what happened with that guy you had to meet "
Mayumu looked serious and scary. It was the second time i've seen him this serious.
"He's... Alec's brother.." i said while feeling upset. Mayumu suddenly came and gave me a hug. "Let it out Akitake..."
"Mayu.. i-.."
Mayu looked at me with tears in his eyes.
"Why are you like this Fumi.. why did you turn out like this, you were different... if only you weren't born in that family you wouldn't have.."
"Mayumu it's ok.."
Mayu: "HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT WHILE YOU'RE ALL DEPRESSED AND ON TOP OF THAT YOU HAVE CANCER WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU AKITAKE!"
I looked down while Mayumu was letting out everything. I was wondering if that smile and personality of him was fake..
Then out of nowhere he kissed me.
Me: WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU MAYUMU!"
Mayu: " I'M WORRIED ABOUT YOU WHY CAN'T YOU JUST... WHY CAN'T YOU JUST ACCEPT THAT!
Me: "I need to go..."
I turned my back to him and looked down.
Mayu: "DON'T LEAVE AKITAKE, YOU'RE MY BESTFRIEND DON'T.."
Me: "We need a time apart from eachother Mayumu.."
"Bye...."
I was walking back to the hotel when suddenly i got a call from my mother.
"Hello.."
"Akitake my son"
"What do you want"
"That's no way to talk to you're mother, either ways we need to present you to the girl you will be marrying so be ready before 18:00 Pm. Emilio will pick you up.
* ends the call *
It started raining while i was walking back. I lost hope.. i broke my bestfriend... and it was all my fault. I hate myself so much i just want to die.
"GOD WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST TAKE ME INSTEAD OF ALEC WHY!" i screamed while taking everything out. I felt a huge pain in my chest. When i arrived back to the hotel i started packing my stuff. When i got out of my hotel room i called my mother.

"Hello mom, tell Emilio to pick me up now"
"I'm glad you accepted son, i knew you wouldn't dissapoint you're family"

10 minutes later Emilio arrived. I opened the car's door, Then suddenly i heard someone screaming.
Mayu: "AKI DON'T DO THIS, DON'T LEAVE US"
I looked at him with a straight face and went in the limousine.
"This is my.....my destiny"
"I'm sorry.....
