One-Shot Collection (Souma x Takumi)

🚨End Line🚨

Rough pitter patters of the downpour echoes to every corner of the room. Splashes of stepped on puddles from rushing feet and the loud horns of cars covered the dark sky. Takumi watches them with silence, many had tried to offer shelter but he refused.

"The forecast didn't say anything about this..." he mutters bitterly. 'This is what you get from running away,' he thinks. He closes his eyes and let the before-events rush to his memories.

"Nii-chan, you didn't have to go that far," Isami scolds softly but his worry surfaced.

"I... don't make it sound like I did something terrible!" He fires back. Isami was taken aback from his brother's outburst.

"But--"

"Sorry..." he apologizes and avoids his brother's worried eyes. "I... about the task. Isami, I'm--"

"No," the younger asked. "I know what you were thinking... and I know what happened," both ignored the thunder roar. "It's not like you to perform like that."

"I... I'm such a shame," Takumi anguished. He slammed his hand against the wall but he must've already felt numb for another reason.

"I'm also--"

"Isami," The blonde cuts. "Don't lump yourself to my mistake. It's not going to make me feel better," he scolds with a smile.

But Isami knows. Takumi was never one to tell Isami his problems and Isami knows he shouldn't have said something. The ebony haired didn't really want to openly admit it but his older twin was really being unreasonable.

"Nii-chan, W--"

"Takumi," the froze at the call of his name. His lips quivered as Isami tried to step up front to hide his brother.

"Yukihira-kun," Isami acknowledges but his tone hid venom and they all know that.

"Hey, can I talk to Takumi?" The redhead motions, Isami shifts but Takumi stops him and shook his head.

With a crook smile, he talks. "I think you should go see what Tadokoro's doing, yes?" He stalls, Isami wanted to protest but the feeling of Takumi's strong grip on his shoulder stops him.

"Yeah... I'll see you later, Nii-chan," he submits weakly. Isami hesitates, Takumi is looking at him like he doesn't want to be left alone with the other but he got the message clearly.

Don't worry about me. Go on

With one last look, he leaves. Takumi crosses his arms as soon as Isami was out of sight and Souma knows that he shouldn't take another step forward. The blonde glares and Souma closes his mouth.

"What?" The italian snapped.

"The way you moved around a while ago... it was not like you at all."

Takumi ranged. "What would you know!" He shouts.

Souma recovers from shock and frowns. "I was just saying. Was something bothering you?"

'How dare he!' He thinks. Takumi frees his hand and pushed Souma. "Shut up! Something bothering me? Something bothering me?! Yes, something is bothering me!"

"H-hey..."

"Don't you go critisize my poor performance! After what you did yesterday... you expect me to act like nothing happened?"

"Takumi-"

"No!" The blonde shouts, his body trembled but that's not all there is.
