Once the car came to a stop, Sho grabbed and dragged Akira out of the car. She was struggling so much that he just threw her over his shoulder as she fought him more, screaming and cursing him out loudly. Sho didn’t care what she was saying, he looked on ahead as he took her down the hall to her room, not caring about the looks he was getting.
Noriko heard the screaming and quickly looked out from her door and saw the two of them. Noriko froze seeing the look on Sho’s face as he opened the door and slammed it behind them. Noriko ran over to the door, scared for once that maybe Sho was going to murder Akira and fiddled with the door. Unfortunately the door was locked as she heard Akira screaming at Sho from behind the door.
Inside the room Sho tossed Akira onto her bed, looming at the edge of it as he looked down at her.
“Stay the hell away from me! I hate you! I hate you Sho! Get out of here and leave me alone once and for all!” Akira screamed at him as she scrambled back against the headboard of her bed.
Sho frowned at her as he calmly asked, “Why? Why were you there instead of here where you belong?”
“I don’t have to stay here like some pet for you! I’m free! I can go wherever I please and see whoever I please!” Akira yelled at him before she chunked a pillow at him.
Sho caught the pillow and tossed it to the floor before bending over and grabbing Akira by her foot and pulling her down to him. Akira kicked at him as she screamed at him again to stop it. Once he pulled her down, he pinned her down with his body to the bed and looked down at her face.
“Akira…why do you fight me? Don’t you want to be with me? I thought…” Sho tried hard to fight the hurt in his voice, but Akira could still tell.
“I’m sorry…I can’t be with you Sho…please just let me go,” Akira pleaded as she looked up into his eyes.
He could tell she was on the brink of tears as he leaned down to kiss her. Akira turned her head away, a single act that cut so deep in his heart. Akira knew she needed to do this; this was the only way out. She had to cut her ties with him and move on, he couldn’t hold onto her any longer.
“Akira…I love you, please…please…” Sho’s voice shook as his hair fell into his face.
Akira kept quiet as she tried to stay strong against him. Sho bit down on his lip before crushing his lips against hers. She tried to pull her lips away, but when that didn’t happen she bit his lip and made it bleed. Sho pulled his lips away from hers, licking the blood as he stared into her eyes. Akira could see in his eyes that he wasn’t playing with her. She closed her eyes and fought back her own tears as Sho had his way with her for what they both knew as the last time.
Sho couldn’t understand it, at that very moment she didn’t cry out or say no anymore. She went along with him like she enjoyed it and it felt like any other time, but the only difference was the look in her eyes. The fire was gone from them…and he knew he was the reason the fire was extinguished. Sho’s body shook as he looked into those eyes, wondering what was going on in her mind as she looked at him. Yet, he somehow wished she would say something, tell him to stop or say his name, just something.
When they were done Sho quickly gathered his clothes and left her behind in her room. Akira laid in bed till she knew he was gone before sitting up and putting her clothes back on. She turned her head to the door when she heard a knock at it. The door opened up and Noriko walked in with a concerned look on her face.
“You’re actually alive? I thought he was going to kill you…” Noriko mumbled as she tried to approach Akira carefully.
“No, but it doesn’t mean I don’t wish I was…you can have him back Noriko, he and I are over,” Akira told her in an emotionless voice.
Noriko was taken by surprise as she immediately thought things were not going as planned. She excused herself as she ran back to her room to call Jun and tell him what had happened.
“What?! No!” Jun yelled into the phone, making Noriko flinch on the other side.
“What should we do now Jun?” Noriko asked as she paced her room.
“Keep her there, I’ll try to talk to Sho about it and hopefully get them to reconcile,” Jun explained before hanging up.
Noriko clicked her tongue before putting the phone away and walked back over to Akira’s room. She knocked on the door a couple times but got no answer. She then opened it up, her eyes going wide when she saw that Akira was gone. Damn that bitch moves fast! Noriko thought to herself as she ran to her room to put on shoes before dashing out of the building and going off to look for Akira.
Akira was already leaving the red light district, but she wasn’t alone. Ohno was walking alongside her, trying to get her to talk. He had come to check up on her, but when he saw she had a bag with her, he knew she was trying to run away.
“Akira-chan, how about you come and stay at my place, I’ll feel better if you were there then on the streets trying to fend for yourself,” Ohno tried to convince her as they walked.
“Satoshi-san I can’t do that. You’re a friend of Sho-kun’s and right now I want to avoid him at all costs, plus you don’t even know me really,” Akira responded.
“I know you’re special to Sho which means you’re special to me too. I know I must protect you, please just do me this favor,” Ohno begged her as he grabbed her arm and gripped it tightly.
Akira stopped walking when he grabbed her and looked into his pleading eyes. She couldn’t resist him as she let out a sigh and nodded her head.
“Fine, I’ll stay at your house till I find a different place to stay,” Akira finally agreed.
Ohno smiled at her as he pulled out his phone, “Let me call my driver and we’ll head over there now.”
As he dialed and started to talk to his driver he heard Akira scream behind him. He turned around and saw these pair of big thugs grabbing her as she struggled to get away from them.
“Let her go!” Ohno yelled as he was about to pull out his gun.
Then he felt something hit him from behind and he feel to his knees. The world was growing dark as he collapsed onto the ground, hearing Akira’s voice and the clicking of a gun ready to fire and he guessed it was pointed right at him.
“Don’t shoot him! I’ll go quietly just spare him!” Ohno heard Akira yell.
No! Akira! Why…can’t I move…please someone help us…Ohno thought to himself as he completely went unconscious. Akira was put down by the thugs and followed them to their parked car, being driven off back to her own familiar territory.
Ohno finally opened his eyes when he heard a familiar voice of his driver. He sat up and looked around for Akira but knew that they were long gone with her.
“Sir are you okay?! Should I take you to a hospital?” the driver asked with concern.
“No! Take me to Sho’s house! It’s urgent!” Ohno commanded his driver before being helped into the car and driven to Sho’s place.
Once there he rushed in to find Sho who was quietly thinking to himself in his room. When Sho saw his frantic friend burst into his room he rushed over and helped him to his bed.
“What’s wrong Satoshi?!” Sho asked.
“It’s Akira! We were ambushed and they kidnapped her!” Ohno managed to get out.
“Who?!” Sho demanded to know.
“It was our enemies…the Miyazawa! I recognize those thugs anywhere!” Ohno answered him.
Sho got up and paced his room asking question after question, “Why would they kidnap her? Are they doing this to go against us? What is their motive?”
“I don’t know Sho, but thanks to Akira they spared my life, but now she went with them willingly…what should we do?” Ohno asked Sho.
“I don’t know…I guess try and get in contact with them to see what this is all about. For now we’ll have to be low key about it so my father doesn’t catch wind of it because I know he wouldn’t care for her life,” Sho explained to him before he felt his phone going off in his pocket.
He pulled it out and answered it, “What is it?!”
Ohno waited patiently as Sho listened to the person on the other side. Sho’s face turned from an angry and worried expression to one of none. He looked stunned before he collapsed to his knees and dropped his phone on the floor. Ohno went over to his side and asked what was wrong.
“The hospital…the hospital called and said…Mizumi…Mizumi…” Sho stumbled to get the words out.
“What about Mizumi?! Sho!” Ohno became frantic hearing it was about Mizumi.
“Mizumi…woke up…” Sho finally got out as he started to smile and cry in Ohno’s arms…
What cha think?! let me know! :)
