Do It Yourself - chapter 5
The first thing Sho notices when he wakes up is that he's still in the car.
The second thing (and this brings a tear to his eye) is that the car has stopped and he's still in one piece.
He's distracted from thanking every God and Goddess he can remember when Reino opens the door. In a moment of abject worship he falls to the floor and hugs it. As well as one can hug a floor that is.
"Sweet unmoving ground." He whispers to it, feeling wholly justified.
"Sho." Reino's voice is unwelcome in his prayer time so he does the only thing he can do - ignores it.
Reino doesn't seem to get the message though as he kicks Sho in the ribs. "Sho, get up. You're attracting attention."
"I will never take you for granted again." Sho continues, rubbing his cheek against the tarmac.
"Sho, I'm being serious. They know who you are."
"Forgive me."
"They're taking pictures."
"I don't care. I'm alive." He says, nuzzling the ground.
"Fine. I'm going to go tell them you're high."
"Still don't care, you psychopath."
"Also your name is Shotaro."
That has Sho shooting up like a shot. "Don't you dare!" He screeches out, trying to make it seem like his voice has always been that high. Obviously he's just singing a line from his new song. One that he's just made up but has a ridiculously high-pitched tune to it.
It's about then that he realises that the car park (in which he is in the middle of) is completely empty. Of anything. Especially fans which Reino can blab his darkest secret to.
Completely unprepared for the complete lack of everything he stares around in bewilderment.
"What?" He gets out eventually.
"I called ahead, had them open just for us." Reino smirks unrepentantly.
