Aka-no-Joo

Chapter 1

I was only a 3rd year in high school when this all had happened. I was so excited to see him, it's been four years and I was feeling lonely . he never calls, nor stops by to see me. I honestly feel like he's forgotten about me. I try not to think much on it, but that can be hard to do. Especially when it's you're older brother we're taking about.The one and only Suoh Mikoto: Leader of HOMRA.

" Man, these exams are really tough this year!" Hana said. "I can use some ramen right now."

"I just want a nice cup of cola and dango." Inari said before walking closer towards me. "What about you?"

"I just want to get all of this over with." I said before walking farther ahead. I can sense HOMRA from a mile away. If Mikoto-nii-san , then someone from his crew.

I let out a deep breath and kept walking. Not once caring about my surrounding, I had errands to take care of for thus stupid festival. But all I can think about was Aniki. I pulled out my PDA and sent the lists to my friends .

"it's better if we split up, the quicker we do this the quicker we get back." I said, they both nodded and we split. I had to buy red,white,and gold spray paint, along with fake beads in order to make jewelry.

When I got to the store I could've sworn I had seen matching red hair float around. I shook the thought away and went to grab the beads and paint. My hands brushing Against the aluminum cans until I accidentally bumped into to someone.

"So- nii-chan...?" Mikoto was looking at me in surprise. I lowered my hand and gripped the box of beads in my hand.

" It's been a long time,Tsubaki." He said. His hands were in his coat pocket and I huffed under my scarf. How is it that I haven't seen my brother in four fucking years and he still acts like he doesn't want to be near me. He makes me feel like a stranger to him. Those people he hangs around with are more like his brothers. "I haven't seen you in...-"

"Four years..." My eyes were watering. "I thought one day I might see you sooner, but I guess that wasn't going to happen."

Mikoto looked down at his shoes. "Sorry, I didn't have time to see you anymore."

I shook my head and grabbed the paint. Rushing towards the register, and paying for my stuff . He never answered my calls,always avoiding me, and leaving me looking like a fool; and all he can say was sorry?!

"Oi," I turned around and saw him trailing me. His hands grabbing the bags from me."Where do you stay now?"

"In the little apartment just up the street," I said. Pointing to the bag. "But that's for the school."

"Ah," he mumbles. "Well let's go."

We were walking back to the school in silence. I tried to talk to him about what all has happened. I found a college to study for,and had a job. The pay wasn't too great,but I managed to get by just fine.

"I heard you were taking martial art classes," He said with smirk on his face. I was blushing. "Which was it again?"

" Judo." I said . He nods. " I have my final tournament coming up. I mean,if you're not busy....maybe you can..."

He rubbed my hair, something he's always done when we were kids. " I'll see what I can do."

"Mikoto-san!" I looked over my shoulder and clicked my tounge. Some kid was skating over here with a baseball bat in his hand. Red streaks were streaming behind him as he skates closer.
"I guess you have better stuff to do, huh?" I quickly grabbed my bag from him and walked away. I was waiting to hear him call out to me."Wait, Tsubaki... Let me take you home." or "at least lets grab something to eat."

But he was quiet. Not saying a thing to me,nor did he look back at me. He didn't call my name or anything.

I felt so heart broken that I went straight home instead of going back to school. I text Karin and told her that I wasn't feeling too great. So Inari has to come over and grab the bag.

"Baka-no-Mikoto." I mumbled under my breath. "Am I really not that important to you?"

I felt my eyes water. My birthday was in two days and I'm sure my brother wouldn't visit me and spend that day with me.

"I guess I'll bake myself a cake tomorrow." I should grab some groceries, or something . just until next week ,or whenever I run out.

I quickly grabbed my jacket and left the house. Making my way to the nearest convince store. When I was done and making my way back out, I ran into a guy in blue.

He was tall and cute, his hair flipped in certain areas and he wore glasses. He looked so familiar. Did I know him from somewhere? Probably not. I just know that he's in SCEPTER 4.

And rolling by was that same guy who wanted to talk to Mikoto. He had stopped and stared at us for the longest.

"S-Sorry ." I said, before quickly walking away. I didn't give him the chance to speak. I'm sure he had something sarcastic to say.

"Oi!" I heard him call out. But I didn't listen. I quickly stormed upstairs and closed the door behind me. That guy was really watching me. What did he want?

I laid on my couch and sighed. Ever since I saw Mikoto again, everything I thought was normal to me now, I started feeling the same way again.

Only this time, it was much much much worse.
