I'm Broken... (Boy x Boy)|| OHSHC

~|3|~

Mori shook his head softly then reached a handout, not wanting to believe it was real.

"Go ahead..." Enzo muttered softly while looking off to the side, he flinched when he felt a hand rest on the scar, Mori's eyes hardened before letting Enzo drop his shirt down.

"I've learned to deal with it Takashi..." He said with a sigh following it, his head tilted towards the sky as he let a slight smile fall onto his lips.

"Thank you for trying to contact me... I read every single one of your e-mails and letters... Just never could respond... I'm sorry for your loss..." He looked over at Mori and gave him an understanding smile.

"Really... I am... She was an amazing woman..." Mori nodded slightly while looking at the raven-haired male, Enzo stretched his arms out and winced slightly when his bruised ribs shifted.

"Ah..."He rubbed the bruise softly before standing up and holding his hand out.

"C'mon, class starts again soon..." Mori nodded and took his hand, soon letting go when the two got into the school. There was one thing the two didn't know about each other's families, the one thing that made them so close, yet not even realize it.

"Hina, no matter what, we have to bring our families together..." the raven-haired woman nodded as she held her stomach softly.

"I'm having a boy... I and Akira are naming his Takashi... What about you, Sakura?" Hina said smiling at the slightly younger woman, who smiled back.

"I'm almost certain we're having a girl... I was thinking of naming her Hinowa... But if we do have a boy, I was thinking Enzo... Enzo Hiroshi... It has a nice ring to it..." Hina smiled and nodded.

"And no matter what..."

"They will marry, right?" Hina nodded and smiled happily while looking at her husband standing next to Sakura's husband as they talked quietly.

Enzo looked over his shoulder as Takashi as he walked along the halls, soon being swarmed by girls and boys asking questions, he froze up and tried to just walk off, before one of the guys grabbed him with a smile on his face.

"C'mon! Talk to us, we want to get to know you Hiroshi-san" Enzo looked at him and blinked before sighing and sitting at his desk listening to the questions being spewed at him, he blinked and held a hand up, signaling the students to quiet down. The questions died off a moment later.

"One at a time... Please..." The girls swooned and blushed while the guys chuckled nervously, the only person that was that quiet was Mori, Enzo started to point at people asking their names and what their question was. Honey and Mori watched as he talked to the students in a soft voice, his face stayed stoic for the time that students talked to him, only replying to important questions about business or such, nothing about dating. Then one girl asked something that was a more private question.

"Why do you have a ring..? Are you engaged..?" He seemed sad about this, Enzo glanced down at his hand, a simple black band. He started running his thumb over it.

"I'm not sure what it was for... But my mother gave it to me and never explained it... She just said to wear it and wait..." The student surrounding him were slightly confused.

"Couldn't you just ask her..?" Enzo looked off to the side.

"Kiato! Manners!" The boy held his hands up.

"S-sorry Hiroshi-kun..." Enzo looked away from the group.

"My mother's been in a coma for the past few years..." The students froze and looked at him sadly, the group soon dispersed as Enzo leaned back in his seat, sighing softly. Honey took his seat next to the taller boy and smiled sadly at him.

"Sorry, Zo-chan..." Enzo shrugged and looked down at his notebook, he continued writing random words in different languages, he was fluent in three and learning another. Fluent in French, English, and German, and learning Korean. He sighed and looked over at his old friend.

"It's fine..." He said back while going over french sentences. (I in NO way shape or form know any of those languages!! So I will, sadly, be using google translate...) Then started to mutter German words as more students asked him questions before the teacher got into the room.

"Ich schwöre bei Gott...." He ignored the students, who soon had to sit down, while he played with the black ring that rested on his finger. He didn't want to wait anymore, he wanted an answer as to 'why' he had it. Ignoring the feeling he concentrated on class, well more or less, when the bell rang through the school he stood up and started packing his things.

"Zo-chan! you should visit mine and Takashi's club today!" Enzo looked back at the duo and sighed softly.

"Sorry, I can't today... I have a meeting with my father in a little bit..." Takashi looked like he had remembered something and set Honey down on the floor.

"I have to meet with my father as well... Sorry, Mitsukuni..." Honey smiled and nodded before running off to the so-called club while the two raven-haired boys walked out of the school together. They parted ways at the limo's, Enzo bowing his head slightly and waving while Mori gave a simple wave. When Enzo got home he was expecting to be pulled out of the limo, but instead had the door opened by his father who greeted him, he looked at Jordan skeptically before getting out.

"You wanted me home, father..?" Jordan lead the way to his study.

"Yes... We have company... The Morinozuka's, mainly Takashi-kun and Akira" Enzo nodded and entered the study after his father, standing next to his father while he and Akira talked.

"I think it's about time you both found out why you have rings that match" Enzo looked at Mori with a slightly confused cocked eyebrow, before Mori pulled on his necklace, showing his own ring that was the same as Enzo's. Enzo nodded slowly.

"Yes... Please do explain..." He said while looking at his father, who took a deep breath and looked at the two boys, Akira took the chance, seeing as Jordan was reluctant.

"When your mothers were pregnant for you both, they suggested, jokingly at the time, that when your both born, you will marry later in life, to join the two families... Hina and I found out we were having a boy, and Sakura later found out she was having a boy, they both had talked it out, apparently, both of the women were having strange dreams about you two holding hands later as you grew up... They signed a contract saying that both of you will be engaged without you knowing until Jordan and I thought it was time to tell you... If either of you were uncomfortable with this you can call it off at any time, just try it out for a bit... If it doesn't work, then call it off...." Enzo looked back down at his ring then back up at Mori, who was taking his off the necklace and pushing it onto his finger. The two looked at each other and gulped slightly, the adults left the room to talk in private.

"So... Were do we start... Takashi..?" Mori made his way to the boy and placed his large hand on his shoulder, making Enzo flinch away from the simple touch, Mori looked shocked and slightly hurt.

"S-sorry... I think we should start by talking somethings out... Preferably in my room..." Mori nodded slightly and followed the male into his simple room, they took their seats on the bed, sitting next to each other.

"Before we start... I think you should know one thing about me... I've been diagnosed with Chiraptophobia... Or Haphephobia... The fear of being touched by other people... The doctors didn't question why I had it considering the scars... When I'm hugged I have a slight panic attack when I'm hit my brain shuts down... I physically can't stand being touched by others, and that's because of my father... Now, do you still want to try and make this work..?" Enzo questioned while looking at Mori with tired eyes, he had just told the person he was to be engaged to his biggest fear, and he didn't regret it one bit. Mori smiled softly and looked at Enzo with caring eyes.

"Yea... I do..." Mori's heart was beating a bit faster, a butterfly feeling in his stomach, Enzo smiled ever so slightly and nodded.

"Alright... Let's try this out..."
