(Name's pov)
"And that wraps up class for today. Please remember to finish up the work on pages 305-307." The teacher says, exiting the room. Everyone else around me gathers by their friends, and I saw this as a chance to slip out of class, and try to head to the library or try to go to the music room. (A/N: Yes, you play an instrument. Reader-chan is talented!)
For some reason, I decided to head to the music room, to try and play a little bit, to get my mind off some things.(Note: Italics mean flashback, thoughts or dream sequence.)
"That was good." Yami says, stepping in the music room. "It wasn't. You only say that to make me feel better." I say, closing the piano. "It's the truth. You know that." "Maybe," I say, gathering the music scores together. "But I'm still a long way before I can be as good as any top level pianist." "Are you going to be a pianist in the future?" "Perhaps. I was seriously considering getting a job as a doctor, or maybe taking a year off before I go and pursue my dreams." "Don't waste all that talent. I'm sure you'll be a great performer one day. I know it." "One day."...
And I sighed, playing the last note of them music. He would always be here somehow, trying to reassure me how good I am. I can't focus today at all. I look at the piano keys, tracing my fingers over them. Somehow, it just feels so confining in this room as of recent. "I thought I saw you here, (Name)." A familiar voice says, catching my attention. "Ah, it's just you, Aigami-san. Don't scare me like that." "Ah. My bad, I heard someone playing music and followed the sound. It sounds wonderful. How long have you been playing?" I look up at him for a second, before replying. "Been playing since I was 6. But I've been teaching myself, mostly. What you just heard was an original. It isn't quite done, yet." "I'm sure it'll sound great when it's finished. You could become a great pianist." "Thank you. But, maybe not now. I'm still going through some things." "I hear you. I mean, it could be just me, but, you don't really stick around at the end of the day."
I freeze slightly, before continuing. "Neither do you. But, it's just exhausting being myself some days. So I usually come here. But, it's just hard nowadays." "Something happened here? Sorry, just curious." "It's not really something worth your time. I mean, you have better thingsM to do, I suppose." "Believe me, I don't. I'm listening, don't worry." "You see, it's actually-." "Don't say it's none of your buisiness, because now it is." Damn. He could read me so easily, almost how he used to read me. "I'm just going through a hard time. Some places just trigger bad memories." I couldn't exactly tell him right away about my symptoms, but I suppose it would do for now.
"I'm sorry to hear that, (Name)." "Don't be, I knew it would happen sooner or later." I close the piano carefully, before gathering up my scores. A slight draft enters the room, scattering them all over the place. "Crap, I'll help." Aigami announced, scrambling to gather up the messy scores. I tried to pick one up, but I only grazed my self, wincing slightly, but continuing nonetheless. This is fine. I'll just let myself bleed out. "-You're bleeding!" "Doesn't matter. People get paper cuts all the time. No big deal." Aigami frowns, shaking his head. "No, no. You need a bandage. It could get infected." "Then let it. There are worse injuries one could sustain." "Well, then, promise you'll at least clean it up at home. I just remembered I had to do something, (Name)." He says, placing the remaining sheets he picked up in my hands. "Will you he fine on your own?" "Yeah, I will. It isn't like it's the first time I'm going home by myself." "Alright then. See you around, (Name)." As soon as Aigami left, I went to my locker to place the sheets inside, getting an odd sense of deja vu. I shake off the feeling, placing the sheets inside.
