ALWAYS - CHAPTER IV

Holding the phone to his ear as he walked Tatsuya listened to the rings on the other end of the line, counting them as he waited for Kame to pick up.

“Moshi moshi, Uebo? What’s up?” Ueda stopped walking, standing perfectly still and closing his eyes.

“I give up Kame,” he said quietly.

“Eh? What do you mean? Are you ( Read more... )

ALWAYS - CHAPTER I

“What the hell are you doing?”

“Uh, do you two know each other?” he asked tentatively.

“Why would you think that?” Tatsuya asked, his voice taking on a low and dangerous tone that made Shige dart his eyes between the two glaring flatmates, wondering if he ought to step between them or hide behind the couch.

“Uh…you seem like you’ve met or ( Read more... )

YOU’RE TAKING TO LONG

To say Tatsuya was either overwhelmed or devastated with his living arrangements when he first arrived at the university would have been, not only an overstatement but completely wrong.

He’d decided from the beginning to go into the whole thing with an open mind from the start, university was a serious thing and Tatsuya ( Read more... )
