The Worst or The Best

Misaki's POV

"Oh my... He's finally awake! Nurse contact Mr. Usami Akihiko." He calls out. 'What does he mean by I'm finally awake?' I look at him with confusion. I am definently in a hospital. The question is why. Did something happen? How long was I out? The doctor walks towards me.

"Misaki...I'm so glad your awake. Do you remember anything?" He asks gently. I look at him. I can't remember anything.

"Do you know your name?" He asks me.

"My name...? Oh! My name is Takahashi Misaki."

"Good, good you atleast remember that much," He writes something down."Do you know how many people are in your family? If so name them."

"Ummm... three, not including me. I have a mom, a dad, and an older brother. My dad's name is Namaru, my mom's name is Siyue, and my brother's is Takahiro."

"Great!" He says with enthusiasm. Why his he so happy about it? Then, a large man with violet eyes rushes in. Do I know him?

"Misaki? Are you ok?...I'm so glad." He looks like he is about to cry.

"Who are you?" I question. His face goes blank and then upset. Did I say something wrong?

"M-misaki...Do you not remember me?" He asks solemnly. I shake my head, answering as a no. He gets up from where he was bent over from me. His head is down so I can't see his eyes. Is it bad that I don't remember him?

Usagi's POV

He doesn't remember me. 'Damn It!' I cursed to myself. 'Those bastards made him lose his memory! What are we going to do? I'm the only person he has left in this world.' Before I could rant on anymore to myself I feel a soft tug on my pant leg. I look down to see Misaki's big, green eyes staring up at me. 'So cute...WAIT! WHAT! What am I thinking! He is only thirteen. Calm down Akihiko. It is perfectly fine to think a little boy is cute...GAHHHH! No it's not! Whatever.' I look down to him again.

"Yes, Misaki?" I answer his to his tugging.

"Do you know where my parents and brother are? Why did they call you first and not them?" He asks oblivious to the situation.

"...," I can't say it to him. Not now. But I have to. " Misaki...I am a family friend. I use to play with you and Takahiro when you were younger. Don't you remember?" He shakes his head, answering no. I sigh and continue.

"Your mother and Takahiro died in a car accident eight years ago," His face contorted in horror. " As for your father...He got into some trouble with some thugs and is in debt. They came over to your house and caused you to be in the hospital. Your father disappeared a week later. We don't know where he went or if the gang took him, but I am all that you have left."

"...Why? Why did this happen? Wait! Did you say that I was put in the hospital three years ago!" I nod my head in comformation.

"I have been in a coma for three years!" He started to hyperventilate.

"Misaki! Misaki! Please calm down!" I pull him into a hug and rub the back of his head. A smile threatens to appear on my lips as he calms down and leans into my touch. He's so adorable. I look down, I see his sleeping face. He still has the childish look from when he was just a kid. I must protect him at all cost. Especially from those thugs Namaru got in trouble with.

A Month Later

It has been a month since Misaki has moved in. I can't help but want to take him and lock him away. I want to protect him. No one can take him away. The only thing that worries me is why. Why have I fallen for a thirteen year old? Who is in fact my unrequited love's little brother. Have I gone mad? As I sit on the couch, I watch him cook dinner. I didn't want him to push himself to much since he is still trying to recover his memory. At least he can cook. Misaki's cooking is delicious. I get up from my pink sofa and grab Suzuki-san (my teddy bear) and head upstairs.

"Don't fall asleep Usagi-san! Dinner is almost ready!" He calls from the kitchen.

"I know." I reply fondly. He has a cute nickname for me. I can't keep myself from smirking. It's like we are a couple. My smirk soon disappears from my thin lips. I realize something just now. Misaki and I can never be together. He would never fall for me. Just another unrequited love like his brother. Wait. I can't compare him to Takahiro. I open my office door and shut it behind me. I drop down in my chair and stare at the screen.

Misaki POV

I feel as if I am a burden. Usagi-san is so kind for letting me stay. I have to work hard and earn enough money to repay him, but how. I'm only thirteen. Grrr. This is aggravating.

"Usagi-san! Dinner is ready!" I yell to him from downstairs. Our living arrangements are comfortable. I sleep in the guest room since I can't live alone in my old house. I miss my family. wish they were all here. He sits at the table. i serve his food. I think he is a little weird seeing that he carries a stuff animal around named Suzuki-san. I just feel so strange around him. When I look into his violet eyes my stomach feels funny. Why? I don't understand at all. I don't know if I can keep living like this.


Ranbu: I apologize again. I'm always late. I will try harder to update faster. Also, I'm sorry for my OOCness with Usagi-san. Trust me I'll fix it in later chapters. R&R.
