Chapter Text
His parents walk in and Hikaru and Yoshiki immediately get out of their position.It was a good thing his parents didn't see how they were.The only downside was that they heard a lot of shuffling which made them suspicious.
“Hey Yoshiki, is everything ok?” his mom asks.
“uH-yeah yeah” he mutters.
Satoko wasn’t buying that for a second,she knew her son was hiding something.In fact she’s had a supposition for a long time that something was off.I mean ever since Hikaru disappeared from the mountains and came back he began with-drawling little by little but lately he has gotten better.
Sakato remembers her heart ache when she used to see Yoshiki during the duration Hikaru was missing and the only thing he would do was cry.Locking himself in his room,probably thinking about Hikaru every moment,I mean after all they were close as hell.
“You sure,you know you can tell me anything Yoshiki”,Saktoko says with her voice failing to have a ring to it.
Hikaru sat awkwardly between the exchange,he felt like he didn't belong.
Yoshiki waves her off,”Look can you stop being so pushy mom !”.
Woah kind of mean for Yoshiki.
“Ok just make sure Hikaru goes home from the night ok.Why don’t you walk him to the door and say goodnight to him?”.
The two of them do a slow and awkward hug at the door the lasts a little too long.They were both really into it which Sakato seemed to notice making her frown.When they finish Yoshiki says “Bye” while smiling.She knew her boy and her boy never really smiles.The last time he smiled was when he was a little kid.Something was different today about him really,he was more…how does she put it,alive.

(The next day)
*BEEP BEEP BEEP*
Yoshiki’s alarm clock goes off and for the first time since Hikaru died he actually wanted to get up.
He does his usual morning ritual of getting ready and heads downstairs to eat breakfast.Kaoru was finishing her math home.His dad was reading his news when he saw Yoshiki walk in and lock eyes with him with that serious expression he absolutely hated.Here goes nothing…
“Yoshiki, have you considered what college you would like to go to yet?”.
Yoshiki HATED this question.He didn't know anything he wanted in life.The only thing was that now he was staying by ‘Hikaru’s side.
“Son…me and my mother have been talking about this for a while” Toshinori says but based off the tone of his voice Yoshiki could already tell it was bad news.
“What the hell???” Yoshiki thought.
“Your…not allowed to see Hikaru anymore”.
Yoshiki looks like he just got the life force sucked out of him.They were joking right.What the hell did ‘Hikaru’ do.Hikaru was just an average kid damn it.What pisses him off even more is for the first time in years that kiss that he had last night was the first real thing he’s felt in years and they were taking it all away.They were taking his happiness away.’Hikaru’ needs him and he needs ‘Hikaru’...ev̷͔ͥ̍e̒̏n̵̖̖̟͋̌ i̸͙͊͐̈f̪̭̟ h̸̒̿̓ȩ̘̰̭ͯ'̵̱s̴̤͔̘͗ nͥ̀o̴̯͐͛ͦt̶̥̙ͫ H̴͕̫i̶ḱ͓̩̩͐a̟̪̹r̝̦̔͆͒ṵ̧̊.
The look on his face was everything his parents needed.
“Now son-” Satoko tries to say but before she could Yoshiki just mutters
“I’m going to school early”.
The two parents tried to stop their kid from leaving but that kid didn't care anymore.
Kauro finally speaks up,”Mom,Dad,what did Hikaru do?”.
Before closing the door Yoshiki responds coldly “Nothing” and the door is slammed as hard as possible.
Tears streamed down his face as he got onto his bike,the only thing he wanted to do was to kiss ‘Hikaru’ again.By the time he got to ‘Hikaru’s house he was a mess.His bangs were wet with the tears they were stroking up and his nose was runny.
Yoshiki’s hands were shaking as he knocked on the door,he was barely holding it together.As soon as the door opened ‘Hikaru’s face went from a happy,bright smile to something much darker.
His voice shakes,”Who did this to you Yoshiki”.
Yoshiki doesn't answer, he just looks to the ground in disappointment as if he couldn't say who did it because he was at gun point.But ‘Hikaru’ being ‘Hikaru’ he figured out who it was.
“Come on,did your parents say something to you again ?”.
At that moment he just broke down and began crying.’Hikaru’ pulled him in for this awkward little side hug.Eventually the side hug became a full leaning Yoshiki against a comforting ‘Hikaru’.Since Yoshiki was taller than ‘Hikaru’ by around 3-4 inches it was really hard for Yoshiki to be the guy who needed comforting.
After sitting like this for a hot minute Hikaru suggested skipping school and just chill at his place.
At first Yoshiki didn't even want to think about doing that,he was already in trouble and the last thing he needed was his parents bitching about how innocent ‘Hikaru’ was somehow more of a bad influence even though he is basically the world’s nicest ‘human being’.But then he realized he would get to stay in ‘Hikaru’s arms for the whole day.Why would he say no to paradise.So of course he caves in and next time you know the of them are skipping school.Something they have never done before.
Asako,Yuuta and Yuuki noticed that Hikaru and Yoshiki weren’t at school yet and began to notice something was off.
Asako says to Yuuki “Hey you think Hikaru and Yoshiki are skipping school together”.
Yuuki,knowing her friend better than that responds,”No come on we both no they're probably both sick or something”.
Asalo looks at Yuuki as if she just said the dumbest friend ever,”Oh yeah they're definitely sick, somehow the two of them both got sick on this very same day”.
Yuuki mutters “Good point”.
Meanwhile ‘Hikaru’ and Yoshiki sat in his bed in silence,Hikaru laying down while Yoshiki’s head on ‘Hikaru’s chest,’Hikaru’s arms around his waist.If Yoshiki were to die he would die a happy a man,same goes for Hikaru.
“Yoshiki…”,’Hikaru’ asks “did they say anything about me”.
Yoshiki looks up at him with his wet face.
“I..i-I don’t know”.
‘Hikaru’ looks at him confused.
