Kenzo was staring unseeingly out the window, vision more than likely blurred judging by the level left in his bottle, and Takehito frowned. Grabbing a piece of paper and a pen he tried something better suited for a vocalist; to form words. The drummer barely acknowledged him when he pushed the sheet into his face, but Takehito stalked off before he could voice any protests. It was Kenzo’s turn to frown, but he took another gulp of straight triple sec and tried to decipher the words dancing across the stark white paper.

‘If it wasn’t for you there would be no AYABIE, I’d have no one to drink with who doesn’t pass out half through the night, Yume wouldn’t know Mao, and Aki wouldn’t have a boyfriend. So stop thinking you’re the scum of the earth.’

He blinked as the meaning slowly seeped into his barely there consciousness, until he could see the compliments weaved in with the near insults. Kenzo grinned and took another swig, glad he had friends who bothered to remind him his life wasn’t all that bad at the end of the day.

A/N: Noooo, I missed a day! At least I did in China. That's what you get for staying late after work talking to your boss. LOL! I had a nice chat though, so yeah... Here, have probably my least favourite of the days.
