HE'S MINE

036

"What did you say to him?" Yuzuha kept mumbling behind me as she followed me to our car. I was honestly getting exhausted by her, she possibly knew what I did back there, but wanted to hear it out from my damn lips.

"He told me he can't go to the party with me, his brother needs him for some work that day," I told her and she stared me at my face in confusion. I had no idea what she was thinking.

"I don't know this Y/n." Her lips mumbled and I was shocked to hear my full name from her mouth. All of a sudden, she doesn't know me? Is it a crime to considered my happiness for once in my life? Mikey has been my dream since I started dreaming, I was not letting go of this chance of being with him. I was finally having fun with his attention, he cared about me.

"Yuzuha you are acting like Sanzu and I were dating." I rolled my eyes at her, seriously she was making a big issue of nothing. She knew I had loved Mikey since I have known him, What made her think I would ever choose Sanzu over Mikey?

"And you were acting like you never his friend. It's one thing to not love him, but who gave you a right to play with his feelings?" She commented, giving me a disappointed look. Mikey approached the car and Yuzuha slightly glared at him for a second before walking away from us. Her body movement was a clear hint that she was not going to support me if I go into a relationship with Mikey.

"Is everything okay?" Mikey, who to glanced at Yuzuha walking away, asked me without even looking at my face.

"Nothing," I mumbled and sat in the car. In no time we were at home, finally. Now I was just looking for a perfect time to ask Mikey about going to this party together. I did the lunch and even the house chores too.

"How was your day?" Shinichiro smiled when I was about to leave the kitchen, he had just arrived from the neighborhood.

"It was great actually," In my heart, I was very happy to go with Mikey to this party.

Everyone will have their jaw dropped when they will see us together, my whole life I wanted Mikey to be mine and now was the time.

"I was in the neighbors," He murmured sadly, sighing and shaking his head slightly. His lack of energy made me worried, his sister never cared for him so I have to be there for him as he was always there for me.

"What happened, Shinichiro?" I rubbed his arm and worriedly watched his face. He wasn't ready to raise his face and stare me in the eye, it seem like a very big issue.

"The things they told me," he whispered into his mouth, shivering visibly and rubbing his palms nervously.

"Oh my God, please sit down." I held his hand and helped him sit down on the chair in the kitchen. He was scared, afraid about something, or who knows, maybe he was shocked at the news.

"I'm worried about you," he uttered, and I felt my heart stopped beating in my chest.

"Only you can tell me the truth," he added, veering to look at me, hoping I would satisfy him with my answers, but answers about what?

"I don't understand, what truth?" I trembled in my skin and felt my body light, "I did they say something about me?" I questioned, followed by his nod.

"People are saying things about you now Y/n" he announced and my whole world shook under my feet. He must be joking, right? I'm a good girl, everybody loves me, right? 1 have to be a good girl or Mikey won't accept me.

"I---," I whispered and remained silent, not finishing my sentence.

"Ever since you started hanging out with the Orphans and their leader Mr. Takeomi brother, they are saying stuff about you." He declared, shaking his head in disappointment. "You shouldn't have continued your friendship with that girl Yuzuha again," She added, his eyes getting watery.

"What are they saying?" I asked in a whisper, mentally not ready to hear the answers. I was perched down on the floor in front of him, holding his hands in his lap.

"That you are sleeping with that drug addict Sanzu and going to the clubs, getting drunk and all that." he didn't wanna look me in the eye, and honestly, after hearing that, I didn't wanna see myself too. A loud gasp left my mouth and I lowered my head. "I'm disappointed in you Y/n, you lied to me and went to the sleepover at Yuzuha's place." I was to think he wouldn't know about it and considering he never confronted me to not embarrass me, made me feel even more guilty.

"I swear he hasn't even touched me and I don't even feel anything for him." I sputtered in haste, why had his presence affected me this bad? Was it a bad decision to be friends with him? When did I stop caring for my image? It has everything to do with me losing hope in getting together with Mikey.

"And, what about clubbing?" he asked and looked me in the eye, how the hell did they know about that?

"I---," I lowered my face in shame. I can't lie to him like that, especially when I knew somebody has seen me in the club, getting drunk.

"Does Mikey know about this?" he inquired and his heart missed a beat, he doesn't have to dammit. I stared in his eye in panic, my tongue losing its voice.

"I don't want him to know, nothing happened," I uttered, grabbing his hand tightly. I was watching his face in hopes of some sympathy. If he tells Mikey now, I'll be ruined.

"And what about the drunk dance with that guy and druggie Sanzu?" he kept mentioning Sanzu as a drug addict, every time he would say that my veins will pop up in anger, but I had to divert my mind from it. I shouldn't be concerned about Sanzu since he was the reason I was in talks now.

"That was nothing." I lowered my head and mumbled. What if he tells him about what happened in the club, oh wait, did anyone see me in the parking with Sanzu as well?

"See, hanging around with them had ruined your image, but you can still mend everything." He held my hand and reassured me with a smile.

" I will, I am anyways done with them." yes, I told him what I meant, I was not going to risk my image for anyone.

"That's good, now don't stress about it." He ran his hand through my hair and got up to do bake cookies for us. I left the kitchen to walk upstairs but found Mikey perched on the couch. He was laying in his bed, playing games on his phone, which reminded me of Sanzu when he was playing games while it was raining cats and dogs and I was at the stop a---, wait, he is out of my life, I shouldn't be thinking about him. He was the reason that people were talking bad about me, I need to cut all ties with him.

"Peeping Tom," Mikey stated and smirked, I quickly jumped on my spot and cleared my throat.

"Actually,"  I tried to think of an excuse, but as soon as he sat straight and tilted his head to the right to stare at me, I lost my voice.

"What were you looking at?" his smirk grew bigger, making me feel uneasy from his stare.
