Knife To My Heart | SemiShira

Chapter 5

Monday
Shirabu wakes up looking around him. When he finally got a site of where he was, confusion struck him. 'Huh? How am I in bed? I don't remember walking back? What?...' He looks over to see the shoes he had worn by the window, along with the hoodie he had taken. "What the fuck?" He groans when he feels something on his neck, he touches the spot and feels a gauze. "What?" He goes to the mirror to see a gauze on his neck. He pulls the gauze away and sees a cut.

He stares at the cut, not remembering when he got it. "What the..." "Shirabu! You're gonna be late for class!" He heard Taichi yell. "Gimme a minute! The teachers gonna be late anyways!" He yells back. "I can figure this out later...for now, get ready for school."

Once he was ready he had replaced the gauze with a bandage and logged on for class. "Good morning class." "Good morning." Shirabu had said back with a few others. A couple of minutes in, Shirabu gets a text.

>Bowl Cut<
Why do you have a bandage on your neck?
What happened?
Is it a hickey? ;)

Shirabu
HELL NAH
I woke up and it was just there
Don't tell anyone about it tho

Bowl Cut

Shirabu

Now focus on class
You shouldn't be texting

Bowl Cut
Neither should you

Shirabu
Ttyl

Once class was over, Shirabu went to go get breakfast. He noticed no one was in the kitchen and decided on making himself an omelet. Humming to himself as he places it on the plate. "Done~" He eats and washes up the plate, making himself a coffee to go back to his room with.

"Now. How did I end up back in my room? I just remember going down to the river...never back..." He mumbles.

Semi was turning his laptop off after class had ended. He yawned and stretched, "God, I shouldn't have stayed up so late." He mumbles walking into the kitchen, "Good morning." His sister says, "Good morning Onee-san." He says making come coffee. "How'd you sleep?" He shrugged, "It could've been better." His sister shakes his head, "You know you need more sleep." He nods, "I know I know." His sister just looks at him, "Why do you look more tired than usual?" He shrugs, "I don't know." Lying, he knew exactly why.

She doesn't question him further and lets him go back to his room. "I saw the dagger." Semi freezes. "The red one. You know you shouldn't have that." Semi sighs, "I know. But I threw mine at him yesterday, he threw his at me. It just happened." His sister shook her head and placed her hands on his shoulders, "Eita. You don't have to hate them like mom and dad." Semi nods his head, "I know. But I feel that if I do, they might actually let me do my own thing.."

His sister looks at him with sad eyes. "Well...they're not going to change. But we can. We can change everything. The hatred, it'll be gone if we try." She whispers. Semi doesn't say anything but, "I have to kill him Yukari." His sister shakes her head and lets him walk away. "What am I supposed to do with you?" She whispers.

Semi walks back to his room thinking back to the other night. "I can't believe I did that...I should've just let him stay there." He whispers to himself. He was the one that had taken Shirabu back to his room, and covered the cut with gauze. "God...If Mom knows I did that she'll kill me." He whispers. Semi looked around his room as he spoke to himself. "But why'd I do it? I could've just left him there to bleed. Why'd I take him back?" He continues to think as he continues to stare at the wall.
