Prince Sakusa (SakuAtsu story)

Osamu (Chapter 11)

"I already know that Osamu" Atsumu said, smiling gently at the dark haired boy. Then it hit him, the person he was talking to wasn't called Osamu. No....this is Sakusa. Who was Osamu. Suddenly memories began to flash behind his eyes, images of people that Atsumu couldn't remember. A headache bloomed somewhere in his head, sending throbbig pain through his whole brain.
His legs gave out beneath him, and somewere in the back of his brain he realized that he had fallen to the floor. It felt as if he had suddenly been plunged into deep water, were he could distantly hear shouts. " Atsumu!!!! What happened!!!" He felt a hand on his shoulder, and a shiver wracked through his body, and then he was lost in his head.

He was small, or maybe the world was just bigger somehow. Everything was dark, but there was the distinct smell of grass and flowers in the air. Rolling over, he mumbled to himself, imagening bee's flouting over white daisys. It was a really a lovely dream, and he didn't particularly want to wake up, but apparently the world had a different plan. "Atsumu!" The voice said, and a rough hand was shaking his small shoulder. "Come on Tsumu, get your lazy ass up already!"
Atsumu wasn't completely sure who was speaking, but he knew that whoever the voice belonged to sounded much to young to be using such foul words. "Urggg" He groaned, rolling onto his other side in an attempt to avoid the hand that was still trying to shake him awake. "Goooo awayyy Saaammmuu. Orr i'll tell Dad that you used a yucky word again."
The hand drew away, followed by a defeated sounding Hmph. There was a slight rustling and then the sound of footsteps getting farther away. He wasn't sure why, but Atsumu found his little mouth curving up in a smile. Now he had some peace. Snuggling down again, he let his brain begin to drain of it thoughts.
He had just begun to doze off again, when the footsteps returned and he felt his heart sink into his shoes. The next moment a cascade of ice cold water fell on his head, jerking him completely out of dream land. Sitting up, he shook his now sopping hair back and forth, sending little shimmering droplets of water leaping in several different directions.
"SAMU I'M GONNA KILL YA" He shouted, jumping to his feet and swiping at the small gray haired boy next to him. The Atsumu in his brain didn't remember this boy, but the one controlling his body clearly knew him. What exactly was going on?
The gray haired boy laughed loudly, dodging quickly away from Atsumu, who was now trying to punch him. " Yer so weak I bet I wouldn't even feel it." He said, his voice a cheeky tone, clearly he was only trying to irritate Atsumu even further.
Atsumu lunged towards the gray haired boy again, missing by only inches this time. As he turned to try again, his foot tangles in the grass and he felt himself beginning to fall. He had just closed his eyes bracing for the impact that would surely happen in less then a moment, when he felt a hand catch his shoulder. Grinning he looked up at the gray haired boy. " Ha, tricked ya" With that he lunged forward, sending them both tumbling to the ground.
Laughing the two boys punched at each other for awhile longer, before they both lay on there backs staring at the sky. Turning his head Atsumu looked at the other boy, who had an almost worried expression on his face. Sitting up Atsumu kicked him in the side. "What did ya come to tell me." He asked, feeling his own brows turning down in a frown. " Ya wouldn't have woke me for nothing would ya"
Sighing the gray haired boy sat up as well, rubbing his side. "I heard dad talking to some men in his office." He said, pulling up some grass and spinning it around in his fingers.
"We're not supposed to go near Dad's office Osamu" Atsumu whispered seriously, while the Atsumu in his head whinced at the sudden shift in mood. He could tell already that this wasn't going to be a fun conversation. "He'll be mad if he hears about you eavesdropping."
Osamu jumped to his feet a frown on his face. "They were talking about being able to find mom." He growled. "For a lot of money."
Atsumu felt his little heart drop for some reason. "Surely Dad won't pay."
The anger drained from Osamu's face and he dropped back to the ground. " You and I both know he will." He said, pulling his knee's to his chin. "Mom's been gone for as long as we both can remember, but Dad still hopes he'll be able to find her. I'm afraid that if he keeps paying these weird people to try and find her, he's going to get himself in trouble and end up dead."
Atsumu felt a deep sadness well in his stomach. " If that happens....we'll be all alone."
Osamu frowned. "No." He said simply, ignoring Atsumu's confused look. "You'll always have me. No matter how far away from each other we are, we'll never be alone." A determined look suddenly came over the boys face. " As your twin brother I swear to always protect you from everything. I won't let anything bad happen to you."
Atsumu grinned back. " I'll always protect you to Osamu. No matter what."
Osamu opened his mouth as if to say something else, but suddenly Atsumu couldn't hear him any more. The world began to spin round and round and round again.... Until he was looking into the dark concerned eyes of Sakusa.
For a moment, there was silence and then Atsumu felt tears spill over, and run down his cheeks. And then he was in Sakusa's arms, sobbing and crying so hard that the world turned blurry. How could he have forgot something as important as his own twin brother? Through the tears he whispered to Sakusa. "I remember."
