As I wait for shorter on what I should do when Ash tells me to go get whatever he left at Meredith's place shit I didn't even think about that. Where am I going to find
a fake, "Eiji!" I look up and shorter had finally came "its nice to see you again" Shorter said with that stupid grin "it's nice to see you to" I notices his eye looking down "ummm, how's your neck injury?" Neck injury?, as I feel around my neck, I felt a big bandage on the side of my neck, oh
"It's okay, we'll they didn't say anything about it so I guess it's nothing wrong so we are good" I could see the worry look behind the sunglasses but he still had a smile
"

Come on, I know a place so we can eat. " As we start walking to Shorter's ca- motorcycle?! "You bought your motorcycle?!" Shorter was rubbing the back of his head "yup now get on. " Shorter gets on I and gets on after him. I slowly put my arms around him as he starts it

"Hold on tight!" But then The anxiety was quashed by the feeling of freeness. It felt weightless as Shorter sped past cars and stop signs. It seemed like seconds had passed as we pulled into a secluded alleyway, my legs felt a bit wobble but it was okay then shorter laughed "You look like Ash after someone's just woken him up," he said with a grin, tousling the dark locks I pouted a little and tried to flatten the strands down, but secretly was just glad for the interaction I looked around a little and noticed that we were in Chinatown and in front of Chang-Dai
"Shorter, where are we?" But of course, i knew where we are, Shorter grinned,"my restaurant. " I act surprise,"You own a restaurant!"
He grinned happily. "Yes I do,"
I didn't want to ruin it with my sarcasm he looked like a happy little kid when your mom let you get the candy you want "well can we go inside because I'm hungry?" Shorter looked a little embarrassed but went along with it and showed me the way inside.

In Chang-Dai

"Nadia!!,Nadia!!" Shorter shouted twice then she came from employees only room but this time her face wasn't calm like the first time i meet her It had a tent of anger "what, I'm working" she spat "Nad this is Eiji the guy I've been telling you about" shorter said ignoring her rude response then quickly her face structure changed she looked more calm then what she did before "Oh Hello and welcome, I hope My chaotic little brother hasn't cost you any trouble in your stay here in New York", "No he hasn't" she sighed "good, shorter you still need to wash the dishes" then shorter starts whining "I can help if that's okay?" "No you're a guest." I slowly roll up my sleeves "No it's fine, I insist I haven't washed dishes since I came here,"
Nadia sighed again. "Shorter show Eiji to the back room. Shorter had a shitty grin on his face.

"No, miss Nadia, it's fine. y-you do have to pay me,"
Nadia shoves the money in my hand and says, "No take backs, now what would you boys want to eat?"
Leading me in shorter to the table than giving us the menu I look at the menu for 2 minutes until I have my choice " soup dumplings please" then she looked at shorter "I'm guessing you want the usual?"
Shorter nods happily, then she walks away "okay what happened to Ash?" I knew it would come to this .He's being transferred to the State Prison," "Shit, and no one knows when he will come out?" I nod no "Charlie asked a friend in the state prison to look after Ash, but you knowing Ash that's not going to be pretty", "yea so what are you going to do when we are done eating" Shorter said as I take a drink of water that Nadia left not that long ago "I don't know, I do have to go to the hospital again for then to check my wound on my neck because it's been killing me since we got here"
Nadia comes back with a tray of food our food "here you go, Eiji And Sho." Shorter's usual soup looks good
I pick the spoon. "Do you want me to take you to the hospital after we are done eating?" I'm going to make sure nothing happens to you again shorter
"Yeah sure, but after the hospital can we go to the public library cause I haven't been able to go and I really want to go" I finally look up and Shorter had a sweet smile on his face "sure kid".

"Thank you for the meal Nadia" Eiji says as he does a small bow "it's no problem Eiji" Nadia says as she opens her arms and slowly pulls Eiji for a hug and whispered "it's okay not to be okay" then she pulls back "have a nice day Eiji, oh and shorter you better pay me later" Shorter protests but at the end he gave up "Yes sis" the they walk out the door "you ready to go?" Eiji nods as Shorter gets on his motorcycle, then Eiji gets on. Shorter starts it, and off they go.

Everything was going so fast as I held on to shorter
And as my hair was getting in my eye because of the cool wind, I started to feel sle-. *"go back to Japan Eiji you're a burden here",*"you're useless here",* "you wouldn't survive in my shoes for a minute",*"look what you did Okumura Eiji!, Are you trying to embarrass your family, Once You Get Better You will go back to Pole vaulting! And you will not embarrass us AGAIN", * "such a disaster I wish I never had a son like you"*"-ji...Ei-Eiji" I look up and we were at the Hospital right the Hospital I slowly get off and start walking to the door but I turn back and look at shorter he was still on his motorcycle I wave my head over and Shorter quickly turns off his motorcycle, gets off and quickly walks to me once by my side I wrap my arm around his and we start walking once inside we head to the front desk "hello do you have an appointment?" I nod "yes" I can see in the glasses that she pulls up a file
"Under the name of Shunichi lbe?" I nod once again "Yes" she nods too then looks back at shorter "he's with me miss" she jumped little "Oh, you can go sit down" Bitch, as me and Shorter sit down I put my head on his shoulder "you better not fall asleep on me" that warmed my heart up "I keep no promises"
I could feel vibrating as Shorter talked "Ok fine if you do fall asleep I'm going to take a bunch of pictures and show them to Ash once he is out of prison, and and after this we could go get ice cream"
God, how much I've missed you Shorter "yea that sounds great.
