who: Karamatsu and Aoba
what: Aoba visits Karamatsu at his new house and brings Ren.
when: 19 Jan, shortly after this thread.
where: Matsuno Residence!
warnings: N/A
[ With Ren in Sleep Mode, he's a small ball of blue fluff in his bag and a familiar weight that Aoba had been missing. He's happy, even when it starts to rain on his way there, but he doesn't mind it much.
He has Ren, his long time companion and very important person in his life, and he gets to show him off to the other important friend. For some reason, that makes him feel light and happy, which he suspects is a bit childish... but it can't be helped.
Wet clothes are uncomfortable and he's going to feel like an idiot for not bringing an umbrella, but he got so excited about seeing this new place of Karamatsu's that he just burst out into the cold air with his coat and scarf still open. Thankfully, his coat had taken most of the damp for him, but some still crawled into his jeans and his hair, so by the time he reaches Karamatsu's door, his teeth are chattering. ]
K-K-Kara-k-kun, can I borrow a t-towel? I kinda forgot it was supposed to rain...
[ Aoba, it's winter, wtf. ]

So weak. So insignificant.
Defeated, he refuses to look at Aoba or even fight. ]
I don't know... I wish I knew so I could just remain your friend.. but instead, I want something much more.
You should just leave me in the dust.
[ how selfish can you get... ]
no subject
Just how am I supposed to feel?! What am I supposed to do?! What kind of friend am I? Or boyfriend?
But instead he finds himself caught in a trap. He can't unhinge his jaw or raise his voice to tell him this. His breath catches in his throat like something dry that he can't swallow. His chest is tight and his head hurts, but while he knows he should tell him this, he's frozen. Paralyzed by his fear of making this worse, risking either of his relationships would be catastrophic, but doing nothing is also... risky.
What if... because he's been telling Karamatsu how much he means to him, because of all those times he gets close to him... if this is his own fault? Now, all the times he's been so friendly with him seems twisted and distorted under this perverted lens, like he was hanging all over him, dishonest and unfaithful to Noiz. Aoba's stomach twists into painful and sickening knots and he feels every corner of his body fill with self loathing.
He's a coward and he's also selfish, and as he pushes away from him to stand up, he turns away, but mostly out of shame at himself. ]
...I'm going. [ If being alone with him is going to be a problem, then he needs to go. Go home to Noiz and try to make sense of what just happened. Find someplace quiet where he can think and process all of this. He turns around, but only to lower himself into a bow. ]
I'm sorry for having caused you so much trouble.
no subject
Wait... completely abandoned? That isn't what is going to happen, right? Karamatsu isn't sure from how Aoba is responding. Was he.. really going to leave him in the dust?
An expression of worry crosses his face as he finally looks at Aoba, not moving from his seat. ]
W-wait, ah.. you're.. not.. going for good, are you?
[ Unlike all of his other confessions, Karamatsu harbors a deeper attachment to Aoba more than anyone else. If this really did make Karamatsu lose Aoba as a friend, he really won't be able to forgive himself. ]
no subject
...After you made it so clear that this is the kind of thing you're afraid of, do you really think I'm the type?
[ It's the last thing in the world he wants, but he can't really say it. Even when he recognizes the brief flicker of fear in Karamatsu's expression. He knows that's what he's afraid of, but he surely can't think that he'd abandon him like this. Right? ]
Karamatsu is my best friend, but I...
[ Can't be what he wants me to me. Aoba trails off, then stiffens again back into that bow before he turns away. ]
Let's just... let's hang out again soon.
no subject
A-ah, yes! Let's hang out again soon, I would love that!
[ He's so happy because most of the time when he does something like this, the other person wants nothing to do with him.
I suppose Aoba is different since he's his soul mate. That's the only conclusion Karamatsu could come up with. ]
