Red Crow Blue Raven //SARUMI//

Suoh (continuation)

A/N lol Kay so, here's some more! It's unedited cause I'm a lazy bih :) we had a jump in reads and I'm honestly confused loool. Enjoy!

Izumo had demanded the clansmen to leave as he took Anna to the book store, giving Saruhiko and Misaki the chance to figure out their issues once and for all. Hopefully. The two young men sat across from one another, Saruhiko wiping his glasses and Misaki impatiently holding his face, waiting for Saruhiko to finish staling.

"You're only pissing me off more. You know that right?" Misaki sneered.

"Patience has never been one of your strong qualities. I pity you for that, but it's nothing a little practice can't fix" Saruhiko sighed, sliding his frames back onto his face. Misaki rolled his eyes and groaned.

"So? What did you want to tell me"

"I've wanted to tell you a lot of things. I wanted to thank you for ever giving me the chance to be your friend, helping me with my family scenario... always seeing the best in me. I've acknowledged that I've let you down. The more I thought about you the more I realized I had ignored so much and we could have been in a different relationship right now" Saruhiko admitted. While being hung over and still dazed from the night before, Saruhiko could muster his words better, finally able to open up to the boy he used to call best friend.

"You get that this is all your fault eh?" Misaki laughed.

"That's not exactly what I said"

"It's enough for me. Sorry for hitting you last night, you were spitting dumb shit" Misaki got up from his seat casually and stretched his legs.  "If you said what you had to say a little more clearer last night then I never would have lost my temper"

"Last night... I said I loved you... didn't I" he rubbed his head, stressed his memory was clouded.

"Yeah" Misaki laughed. The glasses boy took in a deep breath. Knowing it was now or never, at least never this easy, he had to explain himself to Misaki.

"What I mean by our relationship different- better I should say, I mean... I think we could have been more than friends. I really did feel like I connected with you that way. Course I was always too ignorant, but not just me. I know how you felt when you heard the rumour about Totsuka and Suoh, you scared me out of believing that was a possibility with you" he cringed. Admittedly he did feel like the world eased its weight off his shoulders but the anxiety kicked as he waited for Misaki to reply. His eye had closed shut, not even knowing where in the room Misaki had wondered to.

"What!?" Misaki yelled, running back to the couch Saruhiko had resided on. "Wait... wait-wait a minute! What!?" He panicked.

"First! I'm not trying to fool you, I'm being genuine. To clarify, I mean I wanted to confess my feeling of love to you, as your significant other. I know you know what I mean so don't pretend like you're confused. I know you don't want to hear it but it's true-"

"Shut up would you!" Misaki yelled. He sat on the sofa next to his ex friend. "That's bullshit! You left! People don't just leave! This doesn't add up you- you liar!"

"I left because as soon as you saw your king show attraction towards his clansman you went on a rampage! You acted like a homophobic so I had to leave! I needed distance so my feelings would die with my other emotions" Saru protested.

"I'm not a homophobe!" Misaki argued. "And you let because we didn't have room for your ego!"

"No I didn't! You know what, you're hopeless. It was a mistake to ever try to explain myself. You ask me for years and years, why did you leave us monkey? I tell you and you call me a liar. So what? What the fuck do you want to hear? I'll tell you whatever you need so you can become even more pissed at me!" Saru his the armrest of the sofa in anger. It was all for nothing. He knew Misaki would over react and throw a fit, he's always done that when someone said something he didn't want to hear.

"Mr. Mikoto wasn't even gay! He was a manly man!" Misaki went on, clearly only hearing bits and pieces as to what the other had to say.

"He was a very masculine man yes. He was also in a relationship with Tatara. It was evident. You can't be manly and still be attracted to whomever you please Misaki" Saru groaned.

"Okay so let me get this straight. You left because you thought I was a homophobe... why wouldn't you just defend your king if you were so mad?" Misaki asked.

"Because I had feelings for you, Yata, if you couldn't support the idea of a man loving another man then how I couldn't be around, watching you displeased around Mikoto and flustered around women"

"I don't... not support dudes loving dudes... it's just weird to think about, especially since I saw who I wanted to be in Mr. Mikoto..." Misaki scratched his head. "I mean don't we all wonder if we're straight at one point or another? I'm not wrong am I?"

"If you aren't a homophobe then I suppose you aren't... do you... think you like guys? Guys and girls maybe?" He asked.

"I dunno. I haven't fell for anyone like that" he blushed. Saruhiko could read the lie on Misaki's face and couldn't help but feel Misaki once felt the same way as he does. "Could you ever like... forget everything?"

"Depends on what exactly you mean by that Yata"

"I mean like- us? At each other's throats for years? That pathetic bullshit? Could you ever look past our fights?" Misaki explained.

"I've been trying to for a while now. It's easier said than done however. Hurtful words and actions were exchanged. We're both to blame"

"Yeah sure. Whatever you say monkey. But could we try? I mean maybe you could like... stay here for a bit, give you a place to stay so you aren't wondering drunk in broad daylight?" Misaki offered.

"Yeah" Saruhiko smiled. "If the other's don't mind then I'd love to give it a try"
