Part 3 of story!! woooooO!!! yeah this is taking forever to post...i'm just lazy to type...it takes forever(>.<) sorry devin...
A few months had passed and we were already deeper into the relationship. Kei, the singer of the band, started teasing us because he had caught us kissing before one of the lives. After that we were even shyer to show affection in public. I had already gotten used to Yuka’s expressionless face because he showed his kindness through the tenderness he treated me with. Our lives seemed almost perfect but the man on the subway had made more than one appearance and it was beginning to bother me. My worries became more when one evening there was loud knocking on my door. As I opened it, there stood Yuka with blood dripping down one side of his face. “What happened to you?!” I rushed him into the bathroom where I cleaned his wound. I began to calm down as I realized that it had been a small cut, but my hands didn’t stop shaking. Then Yuka grasped them in his and explained that the guy we had first seen on the subway had been threatening him for months now and today he had pulled a knife but only to intimidate Yuka. When he drew Yuka’s blood, he took. “But why?! Why Yuka?! Why is he doing this to you?!” Yuka got up and went over to the sink and examined his injury in the mirror. “I didn’t want to tell you before, but just so you wouldn’t be worried.” “Well I’m beyond worried.” He sighed, “You remember that ‘Fallen Saints’ had gotten me as a guitarist after Sano left?” I nodded my understanding. Kei had told me about Sano, their former guitarist who had been caught stealing equipment and repeatedly not shown up for concerts or practice. “You mean Sano’s been threatening you?” “Yes, since he got kicked off the band, he hasn’t been able to get any other gigs, not even for session bands…” “So he blames you?” “Yeah, I guess so.” “Well, can’t you get the police to do something?” “Kei has tried. He’s concerned too. But the law doesn’t care about band dramas. They have a lot more important things to deal with…” “But this is getting serious! He threatened your life!” “To tell you the truth, I think he got a little scared when his blade drew blood. I didn’t realize he had cut me until I felt the blood run down my face. But Sano looked like he shit himself.” “I am still worried…” “Well don’t be.” Before I could say more, he kissed me and I forgot my worries for the moment.
“This is it guys” Kei announced, “Our first oneman.” He held up a freshly printed stack of flyers. “Congratulations! I’m very impressed!” I had brought lunch for the band after they finished practice. This often happened because I wanted to make sure they ate proper food. They didn’t seem to mind. They actually looked forward to it. “Okay, so each of you get a stack to take to stores and put them up where ever you can” handing each member a pile. “We can take ours to ‘Like an Edison’ on our way to the station.” Yuka informed me after we were leaving the practice studio. I smiled as he explained that this was first oneman with a band. “What band were you with before you joined ‘Fallen Saints’?” He went quiet. “I actually wasn’t with any band before…” “Really? ‘Cause you’re awesome at guitar! Did you get lessons?” “No.” “Waaahhh?? Did you teach yourself then?” “….” “Why are you being so secretive about it Yuka? It’s just playing the guitar.” “Well for me it’s a little more than that,” “Eh? I’m not sure what you mean…” “Didn’t you ever wonder why I always have my guitar with me?” “Well, I thought you were just protective of it or something,” “Well, yeah. I am.” “Ok, just tell me already. I’m listening.” “Well, about a year ago…I couldn’t play guitar…at all.” I listened intently as Yuka told me his secret. After hearing Yuka’s story, I wasn’t sure whether I believed it or not. But I didn’t question him, since he wasn’t the type to make up stories. He also told me that I was the first one he had told his secret to. That made me feel special but at the same time I was disturbed and left to dwell on what he had told me.
“We’re just going out for some air,” “You have about a half hour to make-out while we tune and stuff.” Kei had said this so casually that I blushed and avoided eye-contact with Yuka as we headed for the exit. “And careful not to get mauled by fangirls or anything!” Yuka closed the door behind us as we stepped into the back alley of the club. There were some empty equipment boxes that we perched on as Yuka tuned his guitar. “So are you sure that you don’t want to stay backstage for the show?” “No, no, I want to see you guys perform like before…it’s just not the same if I’m just sitting at the side of the stage. But don’t worry, I’ll be at the back where you can’t see me so I won’t be a distraction,” “But I want to see you…and play for you.” I smiled warmly at him, “Don’t worry, you can play for me anytime. Just play for the fans this time…show them what you feel.” “I feel nervous.” I chuckled at his familiar bluntness. “You’ll do just fine Yuka. I know you will. It’s just like any other show, only longer…and more people…and they’re all here to see you…and…” “Okay, okay, you’re just making me more nervous,” I laughed, “I’m sorry. I guess I feel nervous too…but in a good way!” I wasn’t exactly doing a good job encouraging him. “Well, we should probably go in soon…” I started getting up but Yuka’s arms were around me. “I just want to thank you for always being there for me…It’s helped a lot.” I was surprised to hear these words from him. Then he kissed me. We held each other for a few moments and then he released me. “I just wanted to play you something I wrote…I was going to show you after but I don’t want to wait.” “You wrote something…for me?” he nodded and took up his guitar and began to play. The notes that came from the instrument was amazing. My heart nearly melted with the warmth and love Yuka gave out with his music. I even felt butterflies in my stomache as the melody spoke to me like words of flattering romance. I clutched at my chest to keep my heart from bursting with the love I felt for Yuka. My eyes glistened as I gazed at his emotionless face…and I finally fully understood. Then I heard footsteps behind me. The music stopped and before I could whirl around, I felt a blinding pain in my arm as it was twisted behind me. I yelled and Yuka leapt towards me and my attacker. My arm was released and I was shoved aside. I tried getting up suddenly but fell back on the pavement as I the energy in my injured arm seemed to disappear. “What the hell are you doing here Sano?!” I cried as the two circled each other like two lions ready to fight.
