The Pin Drabble Thing

Theme #10: FRIENDS

Jin and Yamapi are best friends! Jin and Yamapi have lots of other friends who can mock them/conspire against them/hook them up/etc! I'm sure there are other things that could be done with this theme, but I'll leave that to the rest of you to figure out!

FIC AWAY, PINIONS!

Comments

Pt. 1 apparently.

[tinyangl]

~_~;; Why do I come up with weird drabbles. But whatever. I wrote this in the middle of French class (when I probably should've been paying attention) and well... It fit the theme, coincidentally enough. So, decided to comment here. Oh, and excuse the first/second point of view thing. I've been doing that lately. And I have NO idea if it even works.

You, more than anyone, know how much I dislike loneliness. It's something you work hard to remedy and I have always appreciated every effort, whether little ro big. That's why I encouraged you in what you wanted, despite the fact that my heart was screaming "Don't leave" everytime we talked. It almost slips out during those conversation, but I manage to ever say the words.

But when you call me in tears, only a week and a half after you've left, I get that screaming urge again to tell you to just give up and come back to Japan, where you belong. "With me" usually follows, but those words are more in a whisper in my mind, as though I'm afraid that's not enough reason. Instead, I whisper soothing words of encouragement, because THAT'S what you need to hear.

Your sobbing calms down after a while, and we both ignore the fact that I have to go to work in a few hours as we dive into a conversation, where I catch you up on everything that's been happening. I get done telling a particularly funny story involving Ryo and rope, and we suddenly plunge into silence. After a few minutes of just hearing you breathe normally, I start to wonder if I should just end the conversation to get at least an hour of sleep when you suddenly speak.

"Thanks," you whisper to me over the phone and it's so faint that I almost don't believe I hear it. You don't end there though. Your voice cracks as you thank me for being there and for just being a good friend.

I feel my heart clench because I know that what I really want is you to be back and you don't WANT to be, not now anyway. I feel my voice wavering as I tell you that it's no problem and that you'd do the same for me any day, and have been for the past so many years.

You're silent again, and I press the phone against my ear, trying to get any sign that you'll speak again. You do, a minute later, telling me that you appreciate it nonetheless and how I must feel lonely with you around and that you'll come back sooner than I expect.

I don't believe it, but I can feel my eyes watering up at just those words and I try hard to keep my voice neutral as I tell you that you can stay in America for as long as you want and I'm not lonely and my world doesn't circle around you.

You laugh, mainly because both of us know that I'm lying and my world does basically circle around you and everything you do for me and how you've saved me from myself time and time again. "God, Pi," you snort, "Just tell me you miss me and get it over with. Otherwise we'll never hang up."

Now Pt. 2. I can't believe I had to split it.

I deny this, telling you that you're imagining things.

You whisper to me, "I missed you too," a second later and it hurts to breath now.

"I miss you." I whisper back and I can feel him smiling at the other end.

"I'll definitely be back," you say, your voice determined and the words "to you" are said without even having to be verbal.

I don't want to have you hear me break down so I joke instead about how I hope when you come back, your english will have improved at least. You laugh at me and complain that it wasn't your fault that you were gullible enough. I laugh again and then decide that now would probably be an appropriate time to leave. I start to say good-bye, and you tell me that you'll let me go, so "you're free to break down sobbing, 'kay, Pi?"

I snort, but don't say a word to deny it and when a minute passes of just us breathing, I know you're smiling on the other line. "Bye, Pi," you say and I say my farewells as well. We hang up and I stare at the phone for a few minutes, wondering if all our conversations would be like that.

Seconds later, a text arrives. From you, coincidentally enough. "Stop moping and go to sleep already. I'll be back and you have friends around you, 'kay? (None as hot as me, no matter what Ryo says."

I laugh, because you always were good at reading me. I move into the bed when again, my phone rings, indicating another text. I scrunch my eyes together in confusion and pick it up to find another text from you. "But don't hang out with Ryo too much. I don't want to come back and find out you're cracking jokes like him. One Ryo's enough, thank you." I smile, shut the phone and lie back in bed. It's still hard to have you away, but if every night ends like this, it might get easier every day. I'll try hard not to feel lonely and sooner than later, you'll be back and I'll welcome you with open arms. Because you know me and I know you, and that's what you'll want.

...I keep screwing up the ENDINGS. What IS that?! ~_~;; Oh wells. Enjoy?
