The World Beyond (A Yosuke Hanamura Love Story)

Arguments and Upsets

Yosuke's POV:

Class was just finished and I was packing up my things, Ayame and I were going on a double date with Kanji and Naoto today to the Samegawa river bank for a picnic the two girls had made the night before. I stood up and slung my bag over my head saying goodbye to Yu, Chie and Yukiko before exiting the class. I got to my shoe locker and changed my shoes before waiting for them. I leaned against my shoe locker and closed my eyes I couldn't wait to see my beautiful girlfriend.

After a minuet a girl in my class called Rin walked up to me and started talking to me I really didn't like her that much she always got jealous of people in a couple because she was always cold to anyone trying to be nice to her, then she would try to break the couple up just to get satisfaction. I guess that's why she was really called Rin she always said it meant dignified but in her case it meant cold just like her personality, cold hearted.

I decided I would talk to her but use as few words as I could. I also decided that I would try my best to make it blatantly clear that I didn't want to talk to her or be anywhere near her. 

''Could I please borrow your notes from class today Yosuke-san, I wasn't in class because I was ill and had to go lie down in the nurses office'' she said to me with puppy dog eyes and a pouty face. I rolled my eyes in annoyance and looked away from her, I knew she was just skipping class to go shopping in Okina city with her best friend Ai.

She started to get closer to me still pouting and I was starting to get really uncomfortable I took a step back and dug my notes out of my bag. I hated the fact I was helping her of all people but I would gladly do this if she would just step back.

''Yeah whatever just give them back to me on Monday'' I said coldly, shoving them into her hands and stepping backwards. Her face lit up and she instantly jumped towards me and hugging me tightly, my eyes widened and I tried to pry her off of me, there was no way I was letting this girl act this way towards me.

''Yosuke....'' I heard an quiet voice say behind me, my eyes widened in panic,

'Oh crap'.

Ayame's POV:

I finished packing up my equipment and stood up as I threw my bag onto my back. I looked over to the door where Naoto and Kanji were hand in hand waiting for me. I was really happy to see them like this they weren't embarrassed anymore to show their relationship in public. They were getting used to walking around school hand in hand and hugging in the corridors.

''Ready to go?'' Naoto said to me brightly as she moved closer to Kanji, he wrapped his arm around her shoulder pulling her closer to him making me smile at them as we left the classroom together and walked towards the shoe lockers where we were going to meet Yosuke.

We were all chatting and laughing along the corridor, when Kanji suddenly stopped and turned to us both.

''Damnit I forgot to go pick something up from my desk you two go on ahead and I'll meet you guys there'' he said giving Naoto a kiss on her head before making his way back to the classroom. Naoto looked to me and smiled which I returned before we both started to laugh and walk again. We turned the corner and what I saw made it feel like my heart was ripped in two. Yosuke was hugging another girl........ what was going on.

''Yosuke....'' I said quietly trying to hide the hurt in my voice, I obviously didn't hide it well because he pushed the girl off of him and ran over to me.

''Ayame! This is not what you think, I gave her my notes from class and she hugged me I was trying to get her off of me'' he was talking frantically trying to explain the situation but I didn't hear any of it I just ran out of the school and ran as fast as I could to Naoto's house, once there I ran upstairs and into Naoto's room falling onto the couch I started to cry.

Naoto's POV:

Ayame just ran out of the school trying her hardest not to cry. I know what we saw looked bad but Yosuke explained exactly what happened once again to me and Kanji as he showed up just as Ayame ran out. I looked to Kanji and I could tell he thought the same as me Yosuke was telling the truth There is no way he would let any girl especially a girl like her get in between him and Ayame on purpose.

I thought for a minuet before I came up with an idea I turned to Yosuke and Kanji,

''I have an idea I can tell your feeling pretty miserable right now Yosuke so why don't you put these emotions into a song, Kanji you can help him I'll go talk to Ayame and get her to do the same. I think it will help her to see that you two are perfect together and that nothing can ever break the bonds of your relationship. I think that even if you two aren't together you could come up with an amazing song together'' I said they both looked to me confused at first then Kanji nodded his head and dragged away Yosuke who reluctantly followed him, dragging his feet the entire way.

I quickly changed my shoes and ran out of the school towards my house, I knew that Ayame loved listening to music when she was upset but I think this would help prove to her that it was not Yosuke's fault. I got to my room and saw that she was crying on the couch I quickly walked over to her and hugged her.

''Ayame why don't we put these feelings into a song, together like old times. I can play a melody on my keyboard and you can write some lyrics.... what do ya say?'' I said gently she looked to me through tear stained eyes but quickly nodded her head and got out paper and a pen and wrote down lyrics whilst I worked out the notes for the tune. When I was done I took a picture of my sheet music and sent it to Kanji so he and Yosuke knew what they had to work with.

After a while Ayame was finished and Kanji messaged me telling me that Yosuke was too, I told them to meet us at the Samegawa riverbank as I packed up my keyboard and helped Ayame up she stayed silent the whole way not bothering to ask where we were going or why we were going there. As soon as we arrived I set up my keyboard just then Yosuke and Kanji arrived too. Ayame and Yosuke avoided any and all verbal and eye contact.

''Okay you two I'm gonna play I want you both to sing your feelings and show each other exactly how you feel. If you don't take this step and try to make each other see how the other feels this will never get resolved okay?'' I said to them none of them said anything but I believed in them both so I began to play....
