"Ahhh, it feels nice to get fresh air" you said as you leaned against the fence surrounding the school's roof. You closed your eyes and let your hair out of its ponytail and allowed it to sway with the wind.
Haizaki couldn't help but smile as he watched you. He hated to admit it, but he liked you. He liked you a lot. He was new to feelings like this so he was very confused. He never held such deep feelings towards someone before. He always thought he was incapable of feeling this way.
You opened your eyes and motioned for him to come over to where you were. "You look like an idiot, come here" you said with a giggle.
"Tch, shut the fuck up" he growled but still listened and stood next to you. Leaning against the fence. "Why are we even here? Let's go somewhere else. The teachers might drag us to class again." He said as he looked down into your eyes.
"I wanted to try being girly for once" you answered with a smile. "Hah? What does standing on the roof have to do with being girly?" He asked as he furrowed his brows.
You felt your cheeks heat up and you looked down at your feet. "Can I tell you something?" You asked quietly. "What?" He asked curiously.
You pulled him down to your height by his tie, and pressed your lips against his before letting go. "I like you" you confessed. His eyes widened in shock and his mouth hung open.
"Pffft, what's with that ugly expression" you said before breaking out into a fit of laughter. "Oi, are you serious?" He asked making you nodd in response. He ran his fingers through his gray hair and smirked. He stood in front of you and put his hands so that they rested on the fence behind you, resting on both sides of your head. "H-Hey, you're too close" you said shyly as you turned your head to the side. He chuckled and pressed his body against yours.
"Can I tell you something?"
"What?"
"I like you too"
You gasped at his words and you felt your cheeks heat up in pure embarrassment. "Heh, now you have an ugly expression on your face" he said as he pinched your cheek.
°°°°°°°°
Ever since that day on the rooftop, you and Haizaki decided to start dating. You guys were crazy in love with each other. You guys were the perfect match. You both didn't show up to class, fought with other students, smoked, drank, etc. But as you got older, you guys started to struggle financially. You both dropped out of school, and due to both of your extremely low grades (since you guys never showed up) it was exceptionally hard to find a job.
You didn't care that you guys had a small rundown home though. You were happy as long as you had him by your side. And he felt the same way. Yes, you guys didn't have the best life. But you were happy, and that's all that mattered.
You worked as a hostess at a bar and you met a guy who worked at a small company a few weeks back. You used this as an opportunity and managed to get him to let your boyfriend get an interview for today.
You took a day off today so you could know the result of the interview. You waited anxiously by the door and looked at your phone for the time. 5:28 pm. He said he'd be back by 5:30.
You paced back and forth by the door until you heard the sound of keys jingling, your heart sped up. The door opened to reveal Haizaki in a suit. It was different from what you were used to, but it made him look refreshing in a way. He dyed his hair black and did have cornrows at one point. But after you kept making fun of him he ditched them and cut his hair short.
"What's with that dumb look?" He said as he locked the door behind him. You puffed your cheeks out and pouted. "I'm worried, dummy. Now tell me,How'd it go?" You asked nervously. He loosened up his tie and gave you a serious look.
"I got in" he said with a smile. You gasped at his words and tackled him into a hug. "Really?! Shōgo! That's great!" You said happily as you planted a kiss on his face.
He chuckled at how excited you were and wrapped his arms around you, he lifted you up and spun you around. "I'll work hard and get us out of this dump" he declared as he put you back down on the ground.
"Ah, I'm so proud. My boyfriend works at a company now~" you said happily as you poked his sides. He chuckled and placed a kiss on your forehead. "Thank you, {YourName}" he said quietly. You smirked and squished his cheeks with your hands.
"Awww, are you thanking me? So cute" you giggled.
°°°°°
Ever since Haizaki has been working at the company, he has been coming home late and exhausted. You did come home late too because of work, but it was never that late. Because of his new job, you guys were spending less and less time together.
You sighed as you placed a can of beer on the table for your boyfriend. He sat down on the opposite side of the table and opened it before taking a sip. "You look tired" you said as you saw the eyebags under his eyes from lack of sleep. "I'm fine, don't worry" he answered as he leaned closer to you and ruffled your hair.
"I don't get to see you that much. I miss you" you sulked. He gave you a small smile and moved so that he could sit next to you. "Sorry, babe. I miss you too, but I don't want to lose this job" he said as he rested his head on your shoulder.
You sighed and hugged him tightly. You could feel how thin he was getting. "Hey, you got thinner. Are you okay?" You asked worriedly. He nodded and hugged you tight. "Yeah, I'm fine" he answered.
"You're not overworking yourself, right?" You asked as you loosened your grip on him so you could look him in the eyes. "Yeah, don't worry" he said with a yawn.
"I'm fine"
°°°°°
"What is this?! You call this effort?!" Yelled Haizaki's boss as he threw his documents across the floor. "I'm sorry" said Haizaki with a bow.
"You are so useless! You didn't even finish school! How did I expect you to finish a simple document!" He added angrily.
"Do you know how hard it was for me to get everyone to agree for you to get in?!" He shouted. Haizaki clenched his fist, wanting to say something but he knew it was useless. "You know, nobody takes you seriously. Did they not even teach you how to do simple things in that school of yours?!"
"I'm sorry. Sir" answered Haizaki with gritted teeth. "I'm doing you a favour, kid. I only let you in because of that girlfriend of yours" he said as he licked his lips. "Maybe you should repay me by letting her give me a little service" he said with a chuckle.
Haizaki had to bite the inside of his cheek to stop himself from shouting at him, and murdering him for even thinking of doing anything to you. He wanted to throw up just thinking of how he saw you. He wouldn't dare let his dirty hands touch your delicate body.
He thew his half empty coffee cup at Haizaki and stained his shirt. "leave" said his boss as he massaged his temples.
Haizaki bowed before leaving his office. He walked straight to the bathroom and threw up in one of the toilets there. "How am I going to survive here?" He thought to himself. He looked at the picture he had of you in his wallet and kissed it. "I'll be home soon. I'm sorry" he whimpered as he choked back a sob. He spent his lunch break in the bathroom, crying and hiding from his abusive boss.
°°°°°
"Shōgo!~ I prepared a bath for you" you chirped as you gave him a back hug. He got even thinner throughout the week.
He turned around and hugged you tight. He wanted to give you the life you deserved but to do that he had to continue to work at that terrible company. He wanted to buy you a nice clean house that you both could live in without worry. He wanted to be able to provide money so that you didn't have to work as a hostess anymore. He wanted you to be happy.
"Hey, I'm worried about you" you said as you cupped his cheeks with your hands. "I know" he whispered.
"Is something wrong at your new job?" You asked worriedly. "I'm worried about you, and your health" he sighed and moved your hands off his face. "Just a little stressed" he said, which wasn't entirely true. He didn't want to worry you about the things his boss has been saying and doing to him.
He sat down on the bed and laid down on his back. You sat down beside him and he rested his head on your lap. "Tell me if anything is bothering you. Okay?" You said as you patted his head. His hair had grown a lot longer. It was soft like a kitten.
He bit his lip and nodded. "Okay" you smiled and leaned doen to kiss his lips. "Hey, I'm thinking of quitting my job" you said suddenly making him sit up and furrow his eyebrows. "I want to work somewhere else" you said with a smile. "Maybe with kids, they're so cute" you said happily. "You should probably quit too, I'm worried about you"
"What!?" He gasped. If he quit his job you guys wouldn't survive. You guys were in desperate need of money. He was so mad that you didn't even worry about that.
"Shut the fuck up" he said startling you. "What do you know? Do you know how hard I work for us?!" He shouted.
"S-Shōgo. Calm down wh-"
"Shut up!" He yelled as he hit you across the face. You felt your cheek sting from the impact of his hand. You placed your hand on it and looked up at him with a hurt expression. "I- sorry" he whispered before heading towards the door, he looked back at you and wanted to apologize and tell you everything. But he couldn't do it.
"I'm going for a walk"
°°°°°°
Ever since he hit you for the first time, he would come home from work tired and angry all the time. He would lash out on you and hit you repeatedly. When he was done he would realize what he did to you, and how bad he treated you. He would burst out into tears, begging you not to leave him. You would cry too and reassure him that you loved him and would never leave him. This same rutine would continue until one day it got really bad... You started to bleed from the impact of his fist.
"Shit" he cursed as he saw you wipe your bloody nose with your shirt. He went to the kitchen and left you alone. You cried silently and looked at the photo of you and him on the table beside you. It was as if the old Hizaki was trapped in that black picture frame. It was when you guys were in highschool. He had a big smile, he looked so innocent and free. Where did that all go?
He came back with some ice and placed it on your swollen nose. "I'm sorry" he said as tears rolled down his cheeks. "I know" you answered quietly.
"I think we should break up" he said as he cried harder. Your eyes widened at his words and you shook your head. "No! Shut up! You can't say that" you yelled.
"I'm sorry" he sobbed. "I don't know what I'll next. I don't want to hurt you" he said as he helped you to your feet. "I love you, I really do. You are my everything." He said as he pulled you by the hand towards the door.
"No, no Shōgo!" You cried out as you tried to break free from his grasp. He placed a kiss on your lips and he could taste the metallic flavor of blood.
"You're better off without me. I'm so sorry for what I did to you, {YourName}" he said. You shook your head. "no, shut the fuck up!" You yelled as you wiped your tears with your free hand.
"I love you, {YourName}" he said with a smile, his tears wouldn't stop but he had to do this. You hugged him tightly and placed another kiss on his lips. "I love you, Shōgo" you whispered. You wanted to take in his scent for the last time before you left. You knew that the old Haizaki was dead. He wasn't coming back. As much as it pained you to leave him for the first time. You were scared about the future. You were scared to be alone for the first time. You walked out the door slowly and took in the new life you were about to lead. A life without Haizaki Shōgo.
He locked the door behind you and you felt your heart shatter into a million pieces. How did this happen? All you wanted was to be with him. What went wrong?
You sat down in front of the once shared apartment and let out all your tears.
Hizaki could ear your sobs through the door and he stopped himself from opening the door and holding you close. He knew if this continued he'd break you even more for sure. He sat down in front of the door and cried. He never wanted to hurt you.
All I want is for you to be happy. That's all I want {YourName}
If I had known that on that day, on the rooftop. If I had known that it would lead to this... I wouldn't have let you near me, ever.
I love you, but you are just...
better off without me.
