"Y/n?....Y/n?" I hear a voice echo my name. I feel my hair being played with so I start to open my eyes slowly. I stare at the ceiling waiting for my vision to focus, I look to my side It's Mikey. His sitting with his legs open wide and is leaning on them. I look behind him and see Sanzu, I don't feel like being talked to right now. I sit up and look at myself, I'm bandged up around my shoulder. I move the covers from my legs and their cover in bruises and band-aids. "You hit the water pretty hard" Mikey sounds angry "I don't know if you remember but you got shot as well". I swing my legs off the bed about to get up, but gets pushed back down. "Sanzu give us a few minutes" Mikey orders and he leaves. "Mikey I fin-" "Y/n. Stop" He shuts me up "Seriously could've gotten hurt or even worse dead which you were close to being" "But I didn't. And I completed the mission didn't I, you got your drugs or whatever was in the bag. End. Of. Story." I say getting up, but he pushes me down again. "No Y/n! Its not 'End. Of. Story'!You almost died are you not realizing that!" he begins to yell. "After I specifically said 'Dont go where I can't follow!" "Since when do care if I lived or died! You clearly don't care about my needs!" "Your needs is to find your sister's killer! Akina's dead! Your not there's a difference!" I stop and look at him with a dead stare, "Speak of her name lightly Sano". "I'm a Gang leader. Yes, but I'm not willing to let you die over drugs. I can by drugs when ever I want ok." He says pulling his chair to me and sits down. "I know the deal has changed, but I promise that you'll get you end of the deal. I need to get my stuff done first though and I need to protect you in the process." he said softly. There was a moment of silence until I said "If you think pretending that you care about me will change the way I see this situation then your extremely wrong. You don't know how I feel, so again stop pretending you do" I say calmly. We both just look at eachother in silence, but then he gets up and leaves the room. I was going to lay back down, but the door slams open by Mikey. He throws a pair of sweats and a hoodie at my face and says "If your so 'fine' then get up and get dress we're going somewhere". Then he turns around and leaves Bipolar as he'll.

I walk out of the room and he handed me my bags. "Ive been meaning to give you back your toys or whatever"
he said "Their not toys.... their...." I try to plead my case,"Exactly their toys, come onI want you to meet some people". He said walking away out the door. I began to follow him and that's when I see that his wearing 'normal' clothes. "Is there a reason why your staring at me like I stole something from you?" He asks me still looking forward "I just never would have thought I would see you in something so.... regular" I said choking myself up in laughter. "I swear kid, your gonna be my 13th reason why" he says shaking his head. We stop by a flower shop and he brought 5 white roses "What are these for?" I asked "You'll see" is all he responded with. We kept on walking and I kept on asking more questions on our way to the location and got the same response "You'll see". Mikey starts to walk slowly then to a stop. I bump into his back "Why we sto-" I look up and we were at a cemetery. This is where Akina's gra- "Let's go." he said coldly, it sent a shiver down my spine. The sky darkened from the clouds and the wind blew harshly. Mikey stops infront of a gravestone and I read the name carve on it. "Shinichiro Sano" I look at Mikey "He was my older brother, killed by.... a old friend" he then bended down and placed a flower next to the stone. He lead me to another grave "Emma Sano" I read the name again "My half sister killed by a traitor". He repeated the process he would place a flower to the grave and lead me to a new one. "Izana Kurokawa" "Long lost half brother I suppose... he places the flower and takes a deep breath. We walk to another one, "Baji Keisuke" this is the grave Chifuyu, Kazutora and sometimes Takemichi comes to.... do they possibly know Mikey? "A friend" he says looking down and drops a flower. There's one more flower... who is it for?. "You said earlier that I won't understand how you feel or whatever, but I do. You see you might have a messed up family, but I've had a disaster of a life. You have no idea what real grief is like, what your going through is a minor problem which is in no comparison of what I've been through. Ok. You could've ended up like them. Acting reckless, getting your hurt, what's next? Huh! Getting kidnapped!" Mikey started to get louder. "Mikey I didn't me-" "Don't say you didn't mean it because you currently did y/n. I maybe harsh on you, I generally like your company and you dying won't do any good for now would it". I look at him not knowing if he's lying or is telling the truth. "Here, you know what to do with it." He hands me the last flower and gestures to my sister's grave. I walk up to her stone and place the flower down. I'm sorry Akina and thank you I am who I am because of you and for that I'm thankful. Mikey starts to walk to the gate and I follow him, I look back to say goodbye but see a boy around my age and was standing over Baji's grave. He had black hair, yellow eyes and was wearing a blue uniform.

We made eye contact

We made eye contact. He smiled at me and waved, then he faded away What the fuc- "You coming?" I heard Mikey call out "U-uh yeah" I said running to him.

I look in my bag and see that I still got on dorayaki left, I pull it out and open the wrapper. I was about to eat it, but caught Mikey drooling the snack "Um... you want a half?" I asked him trying not to laugh "Yes." He says trying to compose himself. I broke it in half and gave a piece to him and he immediately took a bite. "Mhm I had no idea they still made these around here!" He said suppressing his excitement. "Yeah... the make it at my job and a local candy store." I began to giggle. We ended up going to the candy store and he brought all the dorayaki in the store plus other candy. We spent the rest of the day talking, laughed about passed memories and ate more dorayaki then I could imagine. We walked back to the club and were still laughing and the guys where there. "What have you guys been up to and why are there so many bags of... " Rin lead on "Drugs?!" Sanzu yelled "No, dorayaki dumbass" Ran said checking the bags. I look at the time, see it's 6:30pm and yawn. "Maybe you should go home?" Koko said patting my head "Yeah, and I have school tomorrow so I'll see you guys later ok?" They all nodded their head. Mikey walked me out the door and suggesting to walk me home, but I denied. I walk myself home think about today and the stuff Mikey told me. I'm arriving around my block and smell soul good being made Abuela! I run to the house and open the door. "Did the food really attract you back to the house?" Abuela laughed "Ofcourse it did! Your food is the best!" I said jumping to sit at the kitchen table. She serves me some food and we chatted for the rest of the evening. The other shoe is gonna drop sooner or later.... I'm just gonna have to wait and see.
