Chapter 2
Rui and Tsukasa stood next to each other at the phoenix wonderland while leaning against a wall. They were alone in here just talking about shows and stuff.
"Rui.. You have to tell him your feelings"the boy thought to himself rubbing his head like a weirdo. So he gathered all his thoughts and started talking.
" Tsukasa, can you promise that whatever i'll say we'll still be friends! " asked the director.
" well, i think that through out our relationship, whatever you did i still forgave you, so i guess not!" assured him Tsukasa looking towards his eyes
"you know.. I think that i have ceratin feelings for you.. Like i like like you." The boy conffesed to the other having his head turned down.
It felt like the time stopped, sky turned dark and his breath got faster than earlier.
What was only seen was Tsukasa's hand pulling down out of the inventor's shoulder.
.. Is this my fault?
".. Rui are you sure you have feelings for me and it's not only a friend's love? Like best bros? I think you're mistaken. " Rui's heart broke into pieces.
He looked up, in fear and nervousness, watching his hands tremble as if he was in a rollercoaster. God he hoped that he would be in a one right one.
Blond's expression changed into a worried one stepping closer to the other. Step by step his anxiety grew stronger ans stronger.
.. What he means by "you're mistaken"??..
".. I don't think so" he replied
"look,.. Normally i wouldn't care but we can't be together, we're working together as a group remember?.. It's kinda disgusting don't you think? It's seems like you're only thinking about yourself i see... I'm disappointed, i thought we were best buddies.. Is it curable? "
So it is his fault
His breath got even more faster, his vision got worse and he started sweating. The only thibg that he was focused on were his trembling hands.
" How about you just stop loving me? Liking men is kinda weird.. - ".. I tried i really tried.Rui started breathing out loudly.
" if not.. We can just stop our friendship." His heart was destroyed at the moment.Everything turned black, then he fainted.

"TSUKASA IT'S NO-... huff.. Huuf.. It was just a dream, not a reali-huf, reality.." Director woke up in his room all sweaty stretching out his hand in the air.
Even if his mind did tell him that it couldn't be true, because the costumes they wore were the old ones and phoenix wonderland looked empty, but even so.. It felt so real.
What if this is exactly what will happen if he'll conffesed his feelings for him? He preffered to just be closed from the inside,and probably those feelings aren't even romantic..he just wasn't sure!
He slowly took the blanket out of him with his hand that was still trembling and with the other he helped himself to sit.
Rui only now realised that it's still dark outside, to check the hour he took his phone from the table that was next to the couch.
"25 unread messages" was the first thing that was noticed by him and then he looked at the hour. "5 am, it's still enough to get some more sleep" Rui thought while unlocking his blockade screen.
"2 unread messages from father, 3 from Nene, 5 from Emu and... 15 from Tsukasa?!"He probably didn't seen them earlier because of how tired he was, quite normal to Tsukasa to send this much messages though.
First he checked his parent's messages.
"I'm so sorry Rui but we are unable to come until tomorrow's morning. That's why i will send you some money to your bank account, and please buy yourself some normal food that includes vegetables. Goodnight" 1:38
"Your mother's state is not the best but it's going to be better, mother said that you should not worry much. One of your friend suggested to check on you, hope you're fine with it, well it's already 2 am so he already came.Of course we son't mind him sleeping in our house. " 2:00
Rui knew that it was bad, but not that bad.
In the past 1 year boy observed that his mother would often get stomach aches, which was really weird. Plus her energy was getting weaker and weaker.. He really did worry for her now.
He just sighed and clicked Nene's icon to check her messages.
"Everyone has been trying to contact with you somehow! Tsukasa is getting nervous." 22:09
"Tsukasa said that he will check on you" 22:10
"good luck with him" 22:10
Huh.. So he checked in me earlier? I did in fact give him my keys... thought the inventor
After that he clicked on Emu's icon
"RUIIIiiiIIii Tsukasa said that you are not feeling really well, are you better now?" 20:38
"Remember to drink a lot of water!" 20:45
"and eat properly!" 20:50
"..and sleep MORE than enough >:(" 20:50
"Tsukasa said that he's going to check on you GOODNIGHT!!!" 20:50
.... So the noises that he heard weren't from outside nor from his inventions... TSUKASA IS PROBABLY SLEEPING IN HIS HOUSE NOW. And the snores are so loud..
Director stood up while trying not to trip over some things that were on his floor, for example once Rui stepped on his mechanic bird and after that he had to change it's system because of how loud it was!
He went to the living room just to see his friend, maybe not in the future, but anyway snoring on his parents' sofa.
Maybe way back in the times he would just ignore it or even get angry, but now he just wanted to look into his breathtaking hair that was sparkling in the sun's lighting.
"no.. NOooooo.... WHaaa-CHRRRRRR abouuuutttt theeEeMEE-CHRRRRR Veggiesss..." was he dreaming about veget*bles? For sure a horrific nightmare...
He walked to the kitchen and took a glass from the upper shelf. He filled it with water for him to just drink it. It was just regular water, nothing special, nothing new.
He peeked out of the kitchen to look at his dear groupmate and observe his beauty from afar. He should probably just agree with the fact that he likes him....
After that he walked up to him and took the closest blanket to cover him, still thinking about his mom's health. He looked at him for a little more and then he went to his room to lay on his own "bed" .
He was really tired because of the incident in the hospital, so he fell asleep pretty quickly.
~
Tsukasa just awaken up, it was 7:09 and school would start in 2 hours and 21 minutes!
He leaned up to realize that something fluffy and comfy is laying on him, he stared at his body to realize that he was wrapped with a blanket.
Weird, he didn't remember to wrap himself with one, star thought as he got up from the sofa.
Right, he was supposed to wake Rui up and make him some breakfast! That included vegetables...he went to Rui's room to see him sleeping. His eyes were closed with his stunning eyelashes that matched his hair!
It looked really abnormal, but pretty at the same time. Tsukasa went back to the kitchen and started to unpacking his bag that had food in it from his house.
With it he made him scrambled eggs (with blended tomatoes inside) and two pieces of bread spreaded with cottage cheese (that had radish in it). He made himself the same dish.
It was 7.40 when Rui woke up and walked up to the kitchen to find out that Tsukasa is in his house! How generous of me huh? I'm even making you breakfast! thought star with confidence.
" hello Tsukasa-kun." director just said walking up to the table.
"Huh? I thought you would be shocked for you to find out that i am in your house, but i guess you've read the messages already!You're too smart for me.. " he growled looking at the pan.
"Fufufu, thanks Tsukasa-kun for such a compliment!" stared Rui at him with a smily face.
He walked up to Tsukasa to take his breakfast plate. " Come sit next to me Tsukasa-kun." said inventor.
Blond boy took his own plate then sat right next to his BEST FRIEND, BEST DIRECTOR, AMAZING INVENTOR, AND THE MOST INTELLIGE-
"My mom's health is getting worse you know..." Rui looked at him. His expression changed in a second, from a happy one to worried and sad.
"Oh yeah.. Your dad told me yesterday, but don't let your sadness ruin your day Rui. You know better than anyone that she is one of the strongest woman alive, and can
knows how to compare with it... Actually he also told me that she is feeling better! She might even come back before we go to school!." Said tsukasa gently embracing his best friend.
Rui looked at him with reassured look and then hugged to the other one.
" You can't imagine how important you're to me Tsukasa-kun.., thank you so much for being here and.. Just helping me in general. From the very beginning." He let go and looked at the star with tears in his eyes.
Tsukasa smiled.
"I AM ALSO VERY THANKFUL, BUT NOW WE MUST EST OUR BREAKFASTS!!!" said the star with upper volume just to quiet down the feeling inside him. Is it really okay for him to stay in the hug for a while longer? He had no idea.
