Love That Never Saved Me

He Looked Further Away

        "Akira?" Takanori poked his temple. "Wake up!" He screamed in is ear. He started laughing at Akira's startled face. "Oh my god, look at you! That's funny!"

        "What the fuck, you little shit!? Why did you do that?" He yelled. Takanori's laugh subsided a bit as he can tell Akira wasn't laughing with him. But his smile was still on his face.

        "You weren't waking up. I poked you like hundred times." Takanori said raising his hands at the exagerration of how many times he poked Akira."You were like a rock." He giggled but stopped as Akira was inches away from him

        "So... you yell in my ear?" He asked in a dark voice. 

        "What the hell's wrong with you?" Takanori asked, his voice slightly shaky. He back up a little and bumped into someone. He looked behind him and saw it was Yutaka. He blushed. "Yutaka! Gomen, I didn't see...you." His voice trailed as he looked back at the glaring eyes that belonged to Akira. "Um, I was...waking him up for you."

        "Thanks, but it's rude to yell in someone's ear. Try not to do it again?" Yutaka said, smiling a little in attempt to make Takanori feel better after his fearful confrontation. Takanori nodded and smiled back. 

        "Yeah, sorry, gomen Akira-san." He said not wanting to look at him and walked over to Yuu and Kouyou who were engaging in conversation among themselves. Yutaka watched Takanori go over and then looked at Akira. He still seemed pissed about his rude awakening.

        "Oh would you lighten up. You used to be fun and loved with Takanori would do things like that." He said holding his hand out, gesturing for the car keys. Akira shook his head. "You're tired. I'm not going to let you die because of pride. Give me the damn keys and I'll drive you home. It's my car anyway." Akira hesistantly handed, more like threw the keys at him. Yutaka luckily caught them for if they dropped on the ground, it could've drawn the others their direction and they tried not to draw attention to themseles too much. Unless Akira wanted them to. Yutaka shook off the negativity and turned towards his bandmates as Akira grabbed his jacket. "Alright, so what your plans for the night?" 

        "We recently just decided to take little Taka-chan here out for dinner, since Akira was rude to him. It'll be good for Taka to at least get some hospitality out of us." Yuu said, putting his arm around Takanori's shoulders. Takanori pushed him off playfully. 

        "Stop calling me Taka-chan, and I'm not little! I'm fun-sized." He said proudfully, smiling. 

        "And how much 'fun' have you had lately?" Kouyou asked.

        "None." Yuu answered, both of them laughing. Takanori sighed and sulked.

        "So much for hospitality. Well, Yu-chan what are you two doing? He instantly sprang back from his temporary pouting. Takanori went over to Yutaka and pulled at his arm. "Tell me, are you going rid Akira of his sour mood with intimate intentions?" Kouyou rolled his eyes and started to grab Takanori by the hem of his shirt. He tried to sit Takanori down in his rightful place next to Yuu, where he wouldn't cause any trouble. 

        "Taka, you say more inappropriate things than an erotic novel has in a chapter." Takanori crossed his arms and awaited for Yutaka to answer. Akira decided to leave since he was getting tired of waiting for Yutaka and was tired of hearing their conversation. 

        "Well, I'm just asking. What's the harm in asking?" Takanori said as he was pulled down next to Yuu. Yutaka laughed. 

        "Well, Takanori to answer your less provacative question. We're not going out tonight or anything. I'm just going to drop Akira off home and head home myself. By the way, where are you taking Takanori tonight?" Just as soon as Yutaka said that an angry Akira came in.
