Hello everyone I'm rewritten this story from the past due to an email I received to someone who wanted me to continue it. I tweaked thought I would tweak it a bit. It may seem a lot different from the last one but it's generally the same idea and concept. It could really have used a rewrite ages ago.

All I need Chapter 1

It was a cold and drafty day. I walked through the night with nowhere to go. It was too much to ask Hiro to take me in. He was my best friend but being a burden to him was the last thing I wanted. He always took care of me and helped me when I needed it most. Today or any day ever again I couldn't let that happen. I found myself wandering through the town feeling hungry and abandoned beyond measures. I was hurt in mental and physical ways and I needed to just get away for a while, it was just too painful for me to stay and endure. I lost the feeling to truly trust anyone but two people. Two people who were keeping me grounded for a while but it wasn't working anymore. I loved them dearly but really I needed to get away. I needed air to breathe. I was suffocating in more ways than one. I couldn't tell them how much being around did nothing to ease the internal pain that spit a massive flame within my depth. All I ever did was lie and fake smiles. Even at school people who knew me but didn't know me. They thought I was the happiest kid alive. 'Chuckles darkly' How wrong are they? Wrapping my arms around myself I shivered violently the cold taking it's toll after all I was only wearing a thin long sleeve shirt with nothing underneath and my feet were bare. My legs were growing stiffer with each step I took until I collapsed crumpling in a small heap. Looking around I found that I was in a dark ally. I hadn't even realized I made such a drastic turn. Even if I wanted to leave I couldn't my legs were failing me. I felt bad as well and suddenly very tired I keeping staring out into the night but all I could see was black spots coating my vision until I saw nothing.

I ran my fingers through my hair for the umpteenth time. In two days I was going to get a job that would impact me greatly and ,although it probably didn't show on my face, I was nervous. To relieve some of the nerves I decided to take a walk, little did I know when I walked out that door it would be a walk that would change my life forever. It was by pure coincidence I stumbled upon a boy carelessly sleeping in an ally way. Within close inspection it seemed he was unconscious and his lips were blue. It may have been a smarter idea to call an ambulance and let them handle but instead I decided to take him in. He looked like a kid and he was barely wearing anything. Hoisting him up I made the small trek back to my apartment trying to figure out what to do with him on my way. Thankfully it was late and no was out and wondering what the fuck I'm doing with some child in my arms. They would probably think I'm kidnapping him or some shit. Shaking my head of those thoughts I somehow managed to enter my apartment with the very cold boy in my arms. I couldn't help but gasp at the site as I brought him into full light of my apartment. Littered with scars and bruises all over his legs, his pink… His pink hair was matted and dirty and there was hickies littered all over his neck that turned into nasty dark bruises going down his chest and whatever that was exposed. I'm pretty certain there is a lot more where that came from. I couldn't think about that now I had to warm him up and in order to do that I grabbed lots of blankets from my closet, a mini heater, a heating pad, and clothes. I did what I could, getting to work in bringing some warmth to this boy's body. I sort of made this makeshift incubator, don't ask me how but it happened and it seemed to help as more and more time passed. What got me thinking was who beat this kid and left him in an ally, for some reason it really made my blood boil even though I didn't know him. When it seemed like color regained to his skin making him a natural peach rather that a sickly pale and blue, yawning I switched off the heating stuff so he wouldn't be too hot and left him in the blanket. Exhausted and not really thinking straight much anymore I collapsed beside onto bed and fell fast asleep.

It was a bright light dancing behind my eyelids and for strange reason I was extremely hot and sweating I couldn't recall falling asleep in a sauna. Suddenly all of last night's memories rushed to me and my eyes snapped open the light from outside blinding me. Wait a minute…outside? I looked around and found myself no longer on the ally ground or cold. I was in someone's house and wrapped tightly in a lot of blankets. That explains why I'm feeling so hot. Instantly fear seized me. I was in a stranger's house and I had no idea what they would do me. I sat up slowly wearily and turned my head hearing a loud gasp escape my lips. There was a man fast asleep on the same bed I was on. He could be no older than eighteen or nineteen. His blond hair framed his face and he looked very attractive. It was a thought that took me by surprise. Attractive? I berated myself and chewed on my lower lip nervously pulling against my hair, I didn't notice his eyes fluttering open or the way those beautiful golden eyes were looking at me until I heard him speak, causing me to jump nearly fifty feet in the air out of shock.

"Hey, looks like you're up Brat and looking healthier than when I found you."

I backed up and screamed surprising him and making him look more alert as he sat up.

"Whoa, calm down little guy I'm not going to hurt you. "

His voice was soft and almost soothing. I unconsciously wrapped my arms around myself curling as far back as I could muster. I didn't trust him but something about him made me want to I wasn't sure why. Keeping silent I stared at him fearfully not responding until my stomach made a loud growling sound. I found myself blushing and unable to meet his eyes my obvious starvation apparent.

"I woudn't doubt you're hungry after all you've been through. I guess I could cook up something to eat."

He slowly got up and stood to his full height, he was quite tall. I didn't know what to say I just sat silently and watched him leave the room. It wasn't long until I heard clanging and the hustle and bustle of the kitchen it wasn't long before the male returned with some ramen noodles it looked like in a bowl.

"Sorry, I'm not much of a cook and there wasn't much in my kitchen in the first place, this will have to make due for now."

That food seemed like anything better than I've ever had the joy of eating. I cautiously took the bowl no longer feeling so afraid as the smells wafted past my nose. Taking the fork he offered I quickly dug in the food tasting so delicious, it was the best thing I've ever eaten in years. Food for me was scarce.

I watched the strange boy eat. He look so thin and sickly. I noticed him bunched up in the corner with the blankets on him and I gently moved them away from him trying not to startle him as he ate. He didn't seem to notice and finished that soup in less than twenty seconds. He bowed his head, resting the bowl on his lap. I lightly took it from him and rested it on the bedside. I wanted to know about him.

"What's your name?"

I found myself asking. He looked surprised, his large violet eyes staring back at me.

"S-Shuichi Shindou" He stuttered out softly.

"I'm Eiri Usagi"

"Why am I here?"

He was looking at me in fear again and that really bugged me for some reason. I mean it's not his fault he was abused, raped and in a complete stranger's house.

"Well, I found you in an alleyway on my way home you were freezing, I'm not sure why I picked up but I did my best to warm up you. You basically had mild hypothermia but you're fine now nothing that should stand out like frost bite and what not." I cleared my throat and decided to bring up how I found him. "You were wearing a very thin sweater I noticed you're covered in bruises the kinds that you get involuntarily. "

As those words tumbled from my mouth I watch the boy with strange bubble gum colored hair stiffen and slowly stand. He was only wearing his pants now and socks.

"Relax I'm not going to hurt you and I won't pry it's obviously a touchy subject."

I got up and got out my phone book and looked though the names and found Shindou. There were a few of them and I tried the first one calling it. A male answered and I asked him first if he knew of a Shuichi. It was sheer luck that I was right on the first try. I could have personally asked him but he seemed scared shitless as it was and maybe seeing his parents would make him feel better than some stranger. I reported he was okay and gave them my address. There was also the fact that he couldn't of stayed here forever. Man I didn't think to find the rest of his clothes in the alleyway, he could just keep what he had on that I gave him. I sat at down waiting for his parents to come. Within a half an hour the doorbell rang.

I stood in the corner and my mind was racing he knew, he knew everything about me that I was a stain on this world and that I didn't belong. He probably thought I was disgusting. I felt like breaking down, I wasn't sure how long I stood where I was but the ring of the bell brought me out of my stupor. When did he leave and who could he have invited.

"Shuichi?"

I heard my named being called.

"Could you come here please?"

I heard the man I recognized as Eiri and slowly left the room and out into the open area of his living room it seemed. I looked straight ahead at the front door and I felt sick to my stomach. All that I ate today was on the verge of coming up. Blinking back tears and swallowing all the panic I was feeling I plastered on a smile mirroring the same plastic smile they wore.

"I called your Parents Shuichi, I didn't want to bother you in asking for their number you seemed way to nervous. Maybe seeing familiar faces will help you feel better"

I looked at Eiri and nodded fast.

"Thank you so much Mr Eiri we've been worried sick about where our poor child has gone when he didn't come home last night."

He smiled and nodded

"It was no problem go on Shuichi it was nice meeting you by the way. Good luck kid"

I slowly left with these people I waved a fake cheerful goodbye. I pretended I was excited to see my parents but as I walked out the door, out the complex and into the car all smiles dropped, haunted I stared ahead as I was driven back to my personal hell.
