HE'S MINE

087

"where are we going?" I noticed he wasnt driving through the right route, but it wasn't leading to his house either.

"Going to the same place we used to go," he mumbled, "but just a friend, I know." he added and smiled. I smiled back, but in my heart, I was not okay with this idea. We never told Mikey anything about me and Sanzu, but Sanzu knew about us, so I don't think he will be fine with this idea. "i just want to spend some time on the hills." he continued when he found me awkwardly silent.

"Sure," I replied, trying to act normal.

I grabbed my phone and secretly left a text to Sanzu.

Me:
Sanzu he is taking me to the hills, nothing crazy, he just wants to spend some time there.

Mikey stopped the engine and walked ahead as I followed him. It was a beautiful view ahead and he was looking at it like he had never seen it before.

"why are you looking at it like you have not seen it for ages?" I smiled, looking at his face and then at the view.

"It feels like so," he answered, his eyes at nature. "You know I can't thank you enough for letting me in your friend cricke again," he stated, slowly looking in my direction and then stealing his eyes again.

"Sanzu hates me," he stated, his eyes at the front again, he was stealing his eyes from me.

"he never hated anyone, he is just not comfortable for now, give him some time," I murmured instantly, he shouldn't be blaming him for acting weird when he is poking him and making fun of him.

"you have quite a faith in him." he stated and turned to me, tilting his face, "just don't get it," he said and his face turned sad, grief, and guilt visible. 

"what don't you get?" i questioned, watching his face in confusion.

'why things are turning against me, i almost feel alone now." he looked down, his eyes wandering down uncomfortably.

'you are not alone Manjiro!" i stated, but honestly, i don't blame him for thinking like that, who wil feel safe when his brother is playing games with him?

'i am y/n! you don't feel it because you are free now, but i am not." he stared into my eyes for seconds and when tears appeared in his eyes, he closed them to hide the tears.

"you aren't free?" i asked, slowly reaching for his hand, he was shivering.

"i am stuck!" he uttered, keeping his eyes closed and making fists of his hands, "he won't let me breathe," he added and goosebumps hit my skin. I instantly grabbed his hand and held it tightly, feeling my touch, he opened his eyes and our eyes et for  moment.

"You can share it with me, Mikey," I said and breathed peacefully, the calmness of his face made me feel better.

"It is weird," he smiled and then looked away.

"What is weird?" I inquired, not letting go of his hand.

"The fact that I cared about someone more than myself now," his statement was a clue, he was talking about me. "But don't force yourself back into that hell Y/n, I have worked hard for you to leave that place," he whispered, and I instantly let go of his hand, what does he even mean by that?

"I don't understand," I stated and shook my head, taking a step back in terror. The sadness took over his face as e watched me spacing myself from him.

"I wanted you to leave Y/n," he mumbled and deepened his stare, he knew about his brother, but hen why e was not taking an action? Why was he letting him play with his life? It is like he knew, but wasn't ready to believe completely.

"Why?" i asked, narrowing my eyes in anger. he can't just act like he meant a good life for me when his actions differ completely.

"that place was a shame," he stated and looked away, uncomforably running a hand through his hair. "It's getting dark, we should leave now," he murmured and sighed. i didn't question him after that, he was already broken from inside, whatever he was hiding was something very big.

he dropped me at the orphanage and drove away pretty silently, not even uttering a goodbye or goodnight. i saw his car disappearing before my sight, turning around, i saw sanzu standing in the dark.

"you scared me, what are you---," i mumbled, but he strted his bike and dove away. i was left behind with no idea what just happened, why was he there if he didn't want to talk? it wasn't like he was jut there to see if i was with mikey becuase i have told him i was with mikey.

i got inside my room and landed in the bed pretty instantly.

"how was your day?" smiley asked, i opened my eyes and saw his smiling my way.

"it was great," i uttered, 

"umm when you were away, a very hot guy came looking for you," he murmured, and stared at me, the mention of hotguy was enough to let me know it was sanzu.

"he also left some food for you," he continued, handing me the bag of shake shack. "who is he?" he asked, his eyes shining.

"akashi sanzu," i stated, looking through the bag, but why did he not seak to me?

"i know his name but why is he with you?" he inquired, "is it because of his girl emma?" he questioned and i felt the world being shaken up under my feet, why would he pick emma out of all the girls in the town?

"his girl?" i asked, completely shocked and frozen.

"you don't lnow that?" he raised his brow and nervously bit his lip,

"no! actually, we just became friends so i don't know." i instantly covered my reaction, but why did he say, emma?

"oh, okay." he replied, "he is hot as fuck," he commented and picked up his phone.

"dang, he didn't tell me he is seeing emma, and i thought my friends tell me everything." i punched my palm playfully and pouted, he laughed, totally thinking that i was just pretending to be hurt, well i wanted it to seem fake.

"well, he is spending quite a time with her these days," he commented and then drowned his head back in his phone again. i can feel the blood boiling in my veins now, and the he got the nerve to be mad at me for everything. wait! calm down y/n, maybe he misunderstood some other guy with him.

i looked through my phone and he hadn't answered me back yet.

ME:

thanks for the food.

again, no anwer.

ME:
