Only One
By Shattered Tenshi
Takizawa used the fan he was holding to whack Taisuke over the head. "I said you can stay here for a bit before you have to leave for rehearsals, but I never said it was alright for you to sulk here."
Taisuke rubbed his head and looked up at Takziawa from where he was sitting. "I'm not sulking!"
"Are you sure?" Takizawa asked, settling down on a zabuton.
"I'm sure!"
"Not being convincing at all."
Taisuke made a face and lowered his head. He was quiet for a moment before mumbling, "I...I just kind of miss being Benkei."
Takizawa blinked before laughing, "So you felt nostalgic after seeing Benkei appear in Kabuki? Is that why you did an impersonation of Benkei on stage as well?"
Blushing lightly, Taisuke said, "No, I planned the impersonation beforehand. I didn't expect myself to feel like that either! I guess...I was just really fond of that role. I felt lonely when I found out you won't be doing Yoshitsune's story in the second act anymore, but then at least, it meant that no one else would play Benkei in your stage shows either." He paused. "Then this year, you decided to do that 10 roles transformation..."
Takizawa smiled softly. "Jealous?"
"No!" Taisuke said. "It's your show, you can do anything you want. Plus Wataru was more playing your double...so it's okay. I just feel...nostalgic, that's all. I'm not sulking or anything."
Chuckling, Takizawa petted Taisuke on the head. "Well, thank you for treasuring that role so much. I knew you would and that you would fit the role perfectly too. I hope to work with you and the rest of your group again in the future."
Taisuke looked at Takizawa in surprise for a moment before quickly getting up and bowing. "Y-yes! Thank you, Takizawa-kun." He looked into the other's eyes directly. "Thank you, Tono."
Takizawa smiled again. "Well, you better get going soon then. I think Kitayama is getting tired of waiting for you. Do your best at rehearsals."
"I will!" Taisuke bowed again before saying, "Good luck with the rest of the shows, Takizawa-kun! I'll be going now then!"
With that, Taisuke ran off with a bright smile on his face.
Author's Notes: Taking inspiration from a few tidbits that actually happened like Taisuke, Tama, and Hiro going to watch Kabuki together, and Taisuke doing impersonation of Benkei. Since they went to the afternoon show, it's probable to have rehearsals afterwards...and yea, I like Tono with Taisuke. 8D //whacked// And well, I wanted to write something quick and simple since I have to go back to scanning...I should have wrote this earlier to save time, but oh well...
