I lied in bed, bored out of my mind. My mother was at work, as usual, and I had nothing to do but stare at the light. I had absolutely no friends, but one. I had called him earlier, only to hear him say he was busy. I mean, I could practice my magic...
I made my way out of my room and went to the library. Grabbing as many books as I could and running back to my room, locking the door behind me. I dropped the books on the floor and pushed the bed and the other furniture off to the side. I needed all the room I could get.
I set the books in a circle and sat in the middle. These weren't normal spell books. They could only be opened by magic, caster magic to be exact. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to clear my mind. Soon enough I opened my eyes and guided my focused power to the books that surrounded me. The books all fluttered opened and began to float inches above the ground. Some books glowed red the words looked like fiery embers. Other books glowed a light blue, their pages tinted a blueish-grey and their words colored a deep sapphire blue. A mirror happened to be in front of me, my eyes were now red and somewhat glowing. A temporary side affect for using my powers. I noticed that I too was floating in the air by about an inch. Strands of my hair began to float and move up and down slowly. Blue and red energy coiled around my arms as i focused it all to the books.
Let's see what the books would teach me today.

I rushed quickly to Yuu's house, hoping he wasn't expecting me to. come earlier. I slept in. I practically got zero sleep last night. My thoughts were always roaming back to Kimizuki. I was wondering if he was ok. Wondering if he had feelings for me. Wondering if he ever actually wanted to be his friend. Wondering if he wanted us to be less. Wondering if he wanted us to be more.I was so deep in thought the I had yet to kick a single pebble or rock. I didn't even notice the the tall male that stood in front of me. So I continued to walk fast, that is until I fell. I tripped on my foot trying to avoid him at last minute. I fell to the ground, scraping my knees along the concrete and staining it with a dark grey liquid. I winced in pain. My knee wasn't the only thing that hurt. My palms were scraped, my elbow was bleeding, and my arm was full of blood and scrapes. I just had to decide to wear cargo shorts and and a short sleeve, didn't I? "Y...Yoichi?" My eyes widened, the voice sounding familiar, too familiar. It was Kimizuki.
I turned around and before me was the love of my life. His hair was messier than usual, his black glasses rested on the bridge of his nose, he wore no sweater, revealing his well built arms. I blushed at the sight. He wore only one earbud, the other hung lifelessly until it reached his lower torso, music blasted loudly from the hanging earbud alone.
I didn't answer. "Oi, Yoich-" I got up and began to run. I ran as fast as my legs could take me. I knew Kimizuki was more athletic than I was, but maybe if I got a head start. Just maybe, I might win. "Yoichi, wait!" I felt his fingertips graze my shoulder lightly. I knew I wasn't going to make it.
Do you need assistance, Yoichi?
Yes, but please, don't hurt him.
I closed my eyes slowly, soon they opened rapidly. I no longer had control. I felt as an arm held my wrist. Normally I wouldn't have been able to escape it, especially while running. Without much effort, I yanked my hand away and ran. I was running faster than I've ever ran, faster than Kimizuki has ever ran. Kimizuki's speed also seemed to have a sudden burst. I turned briefly to see he was using the wind. Dammit.
Faster, Gekkion!
Due to his fatigue and inexperience with wind, he soon slowed down. I, on the other hand, was still running. I ran all the way to Yuu's house. I just couldn't confront him. Not yet.

Once I reached Yuu's front door, Gekkoin gave me back control. I felt lightheaded, everything hurt so badly. It took all my power to press the doorbell before my vision blackened. Everything felt fuzzy, I couldn't even think correctly. "Yoichi!" Was the last thing I heard.
