Your aura made it obvious... Chapter 1
Title: Your aura made it obvious...
Fandom: Hana-Kimi
Pairing: Nanba/Kayashima
Rating: PG-13
Summary: When you're not the only one, when your best friend knows you aren't but never told you. When your best friend is the other... how are you supposed to feel? And then, when is it okay for feelings to change?
Warnings: This is the first fic I ever wrote. I had it posted on ff.net but never bothered to put it on here until now... I'm a bit ashamed of the writing, and the chances of me continuing this aren't high.
Chapter 1
Umm... 3rd person POV?
My name is Taiki Kayashima, since birth I have had what to some may seem like a curse. I can see ghosts, talk to ghosts and read auras. With this I generally know how other people feel but nobody ever knew how I felt. Not that it mattered, I mean its not like their view of me would have been any different, I would still be ghost boy, the school's weirdo. Or so I thought.
When I graduated from junior high I went to Osaka high school where I met Nanba Minami, he was in the year above me and he always had the most troubled auras that I had ever seen. It was not only his auras that intrigued me, but also the looks he gave me, like he understood every pain I had been through thus far, I had always wished that he did.
One day I gathered up the courage to go and talk to him. The first time that I talked to him it was really awkward and he still had a troubled aura, after our first short conversation we had many more painfully short meetings before we eventually started to rendezvous more frequently and for longer periods of time. After a while I began to feel like I'd opened up to him completely, all except for my powers, I didn't want to lose my best, and only friend just because I could see the ghost of his great great grandmother standing next to him, frowning every time he toyed with another girl.
It was round the end of the first semester that Nanba asked me the strangest thing, "When were you planning on telling me, Kayashima?" His face was more serious than I'd ever seen it, even when he found out that his favourite girlfriend was cheating on him.
Nanba POV
Kayashima had looked at me with the most confused expression I'd seen in a long time, like I'd asked him to do the most difficult maths question I could think of without any paper, but maybe just a little bit more upset. In any case, the expression made me feel like i should have done what I'd been doing all semester and kept it a secret that I'd known about his powers, well it was too late to turn back now.
"Tell you what senpai?" Kayashima asked.
"Don't play coy, kouhai. Your aura shows that you know exactly what I'm talking about." It was interesting to watch his facial expression change as he went through the process of realising first, that I knew his secret, which he had tried so hard to keep from everyone, second that I could read his aura, and thirdly that I could probably tell what he'd been thinking every time he saw me with one of my more attractive girlfriends, can I just say that the aura of jealousy did not look good on him.
As I was sitting, wondering what would happen next he asked, "How long have you known?" ugh... he probably thought that he was like a ninja, fabulous at hiding his secret. Boy was he wrong.
"Since the first time I met you, it's not like you were doing all that great a job of hiding it." He seemed offended by my last remark, maybe I shouldn't have been so harsh. His sorrow was ubiquitous as he sat in a corner, seemingly growing mushrooms out of depression.
"Why didn't you tell me? I thought we were closer than that." he hissed, aggravated as he got up and left the room entirely.
