MS/genish-Kayo!incarnation; Our favourite apothecary in the modern world. part 1 of 5 [!]

[grendelity]

“Sayu-chan, come on, let me do it...” Eiko waved the scissors closer to Sayuri’s face, making a pleading face. “They’re just so long.”

Sayuri shrunk away from the scissors, staring. “No! Just--no. Not here. Not on the train,” she hissed, trying to keep the other passengers from overhearing. “It’s bad enough that I’m here.”

Eiko gave her a wounded look. “It’s because you love me, Sayu-chan. And tonight’ll be the last time, I swear. Tonight he’ll do it for sure.” She looked away, holding her little scissors close, and for just a second she looked so genuinely cliché-lovesick that Sayuri swallowed back her reply and just grumbled to herself. Three weeks in a row of dancing until dawn--two nights of the week, even--were starting to hurt. She was running out of money, and she would be running out of a job soon if she didn’t stop coming in looking half-dead. Not even lazy secretaries, her boss had said coolly, could sleep on the job more than once every couple of weeks. But Eiko had taken her shopping and found these shoes in Sayuri’s

He turned, and Sayuri caught her breath, forgetting her quick glance as he lifted his face to the harsh light of the signs overhead. His skin was ashen and tinged with an unhealthy bluish color, shadowy eyes peering from behind knotted, dirty-looking hair. He wore makeup like a nightmare, scarlet slashed over his eyes and down his nose like wounds. His lips were painted into a small, coy smile, shaded to match the ragged purple scarf wrapped around his head. His clothes hung off the sharp angles of his bony frame, knobby wrists and jutting collarbones, but exposed to the night air, the nape of his neck was delicate and pale like some geisha-cliché

Eiko grabbed Sayuri’s hand and dove into the crowd, slipping neatly between shoulders and elbows. Above them was the DJ, headphones cocked back on sweaty hair; his fingers slid over the turntables and he swayed to the deep house beat. Eiko was already moving to the music, the light flashing blue and red across her sparkled cheeks, and she pulled Sayuri in for just a second. She yelled something close to Sayuri’s ear that got lost in the sound, that was just breath against Sayuri’s neck and a squeezing tug at her hand. Laughing, Eiko did a little spin and let go, drifting until Kei’s hand slid around her waist. She smiled and leaned against him, and when he ducked his head and gave her a kiss, Sayuri looked away

She stared after him, her hand on her cheek, and he smiled at her again. She blinked and tried to shove her away between two bodies, yelling, “Wait! Wait--” but he turned away, and she was thrust back, and he was gone. She stared after him for a long moment, her fingers tracing those lines of contact at her cheek, her neck, her ear, and she could feel her cheeks burn. Be careful. She swallowed and started pushing her way through the throng of dancers, back in a general Eiko-direction

“Okay,” Sayuri heard herself say. “Yeah. I’ll do that.” She turned away and ran blindly, pushing her way back toward the doors. As she struggled through the crowd, she scanned faces around her and saw people laughing, confused, blissed out...not what she wanted. Not was she was looking for. She felt her makeup drip down her face, her hair coming undone and falling in her face, and her shoes slid on the wet floor. And then she focused again, catching a glimpse through a gap between two dancers, of him slipping out the exit, the wet tails of his headscarf hanging wetly down his back
