Umbrella boy

Ch 1

A lone silver-haired young man was sitting on a bus bench cubicle with a pack of beer on the beside him, shivering in the cold due to the fact that he was only wearing a thin long-sleeved white shirt, jeans, and a pair of sandals.

'I'm such an idiot' Riku thought as he watched the rain fall all around him.

-Flashback 1 hour ago-

"Rikuuu," whined a tall thin red-haired man, who was sprawled lazily on Riku's couch,
"Be a pal and go get us some beer will ya?"

The tall silverette who was sitting at his dining table a few meters behind the couch, typing studiously in his black laptop, merely snorted and replied, "Yeah right, you're the one who burst in here univited at midnight just because you were 'bored' and felt the need to bother me even though YOU KNEW I have a FREAKING TWELVE PAGE PAPER on HIV due tommorow morning. So get your lazy ass off my couch and get the damn beer yourself you freeloader."

"Hey hey, have some heart man~" Axel groaned dramatically,"Your best buddy just got stood up by the love of his life, so I went straight to your apartment, ready to be warmly invited in and comforted in the arms of my dearest, longest, childhood friend in order to heal my broken heart-"

"You came here out of convenience because you got stood up a few blocks from my apartment and your house is like three hours away..." Riku interrupted bluntly, eyes still concentrated on his laptop. "And it's not like Roxas-"

"My sexy, smoking hot, ever so cute little Roxy-"

"-broke your heart at all," Riku continued, clicking all over his document to edit spelling and grammer, "He hasn't officially agreed to date you and his little brother went missing so he had to cancel your 'date' to go out and look for him, as you mentioned the first ten times before-"

"The cockblocking little brother who also happens to be the apple of my little Roxy's eye,"
groaned Axel, burrowing his hands in his hair, "After 3 months of going through with my plan of slowly gaining Roxy's trust and using my every skill of espionage that I possessed to get closer to him-"

"What plan and espionage skills?" Riku drawled, typing a new page for his assignment, "Ever since you first laid eyes on him in my "Disease and Illness' lecture, you spent 3 months stalking him, begging and pleading with him to go out with you. And after 27 black eyes, 7 broken arms, 2 broken legs, 3 concussions, and 10 kick-between-the-legs later, you finally annoyed him enough to agree to hang out with you-"

"-And I finally managed to steal his cute little heart when he agreed to go on a love-filled tryst with me-"

"-But with the condition that you stay at least 3 feet away from him at all times, you were not allowed to be in any enclosed room with him, and that the 'date' would only be an hour maximum-"

"But alas! My carefully planned passionate and mind-blowing date-"

"Which was to get him drunk enough to pass out, then wake him in the morning to tell him that you got him pregnant and would take full responsibility by marrying him and thus binding you with him forever till death do you part-"

"-was foiled due to the fact his brother didn't return before 11 o'clock. Which is stupid because the kid's friggin seventeen, of course he'd still be out partying with his friends or something-"

"Hmm, I wonder if I have enough quotes..." mused Riku, staring thoughtfully at his computer screen, no longer paying attention to the red-head, "Now I sort of wish Roxas did come,
then I could ask him how many quotes he used on his paper-"

"-And god knows when he'll agree to go on a date with me again, " Axel groaned miserably for real this time, covering his eyes with his forearm.

Riku had saved his assignment, deeming it good enough. He turned and cocked his eyebrow at his friends miserable form on his rugged couch.

"...One pack of beer, that's it."

Axel sneakily peeked out from under his arm, ears perking up at the mention of alchohol.

"But that's it, I'm not buying vodka or tequila and all the other strong stuff. I'm not going to be your nanny taking care of your drunk butt with nasty breath all night."

"...Thanks man," Axel grinned while Riku put on some sandals, not bothering for a coat and unlocked the door.

The silverette waved as he left his apartment, "See you in a bit.."

-Flashback over. Current time: 1 am-

The emerald-eyed man had taken a bus at 12:45pm to go to the nearest liquour store, which was half an hour by bus. While he was there, he was held up by the liquor store manager named Ansem, who was upright hitting on him. The creepy middle-aged man kept hinting about the nice hotel that was near there while lightly brushing his hand on Riku's shoulders and hips while he talked.

The unfortunate silverette had finally fled the store by flinging his money at the manager and running out with his beer, he reached his bus stop, just to read on the bus schedule that the last bus was the one he came in on, he had forgotten that bus loops stopped earlier on Sundays.

And as fate would have it, just as the silverette resignly decided to walk an hour back to his apartment, rain came crashing down like an unending waterfall. Which inevitably had the young man spout a colourful variety of curses that would make even the nastiest of swearers clamp their hands over their ears.

And all that was what lead to the down-hearted teen now, sitting shivering on an empty bus bench while silently cursing his best friend, waiting for the rain to subside.

"Excuse me?" A soft pleasant sounding voice broke through Riku's doom and gloom mood.

The silver-haired man looke up to see a black umbrella with big polka dots with all the colors of the rainbow printed all around it, he scanned down to see a red and black sweatshirt with a black crown printed on the front, baggy grey shorts, and comically big black and white shoes.

"...What?" Riku answered, finally deeming that the stranger didn't look like a psycho serial killer that was going to chop his body up and hide the pieces in obscure places.

"Uhm, I was sort of wondering if you know where this place is," The boy(?) sheepishly raised his arm to rub behind his neck, "I was visiting this new cafe with a friend, then I had to go because I had a curfew, but after about 30 minutes of walking I realized I was lost. I've been wandering around for about 2 hours, then the rain started, blurring everything up and making it even harder to figure out where I am..."

"We're at North Pendor Rd, over to the right at the intersection is Oak St., does that help?" sighed Riku as he pointed the streets out.

"Yes! It's only a few blocks to my house from here!" The mysterious boy jumped around in glee, "Thanks a lot! Er, by the way, you do know the buses aren't running around this time right?"

"Yeah," Riku grumbled, pulling his sleeves over his hands as he tried to warm his fingers up, "I forgot, so I'm just waiting for the rain to let up before going on an hour trek back home."

"..." The boy paused, seemingly musing over something, then he moved closer to the silver haired man.

The green-eyed teen froze as the teen moved closer and closer, 'Oh god,' the young man thought, ' Maybe this guy IS a crazyass serial killer, and he's moving in to chop-"

The umbrella was inches from the silverettes face, Riku was in the middle of deciding whether to scream like a 10 year-old little girl or to flee like a ninny. or both. Then the umbrella lifted up, Riku tensed, about to give out a yell-

Big blue shining eyes were suddenly revealed, making the silver haired man's heart stutter to a sudden stop.

The now-definite boy burst out into an adorable smile that had the power to stop the earth from rotating on its axis. Soft brown hair framed the young teen's face, with brown spikes sticking up all over the place.

"Here, you're going to need this more than I do,"

He reached out towards the frozen silverette, his small warm hands touched Riku's cold half-sleeved ones. The brunette lifted up Riku's hand and put the handle of his polka-dotted umbrella into it. Once the boy was sure the young man had a firm grip on it, he let go, took a few steps back and put his hands behind his head.

"Well, I'm going to make a run for home now, my big brother's probably freaking out. I love him a lot but he's a little overprotective sometimes," The boy rolled his beautiful blue eyes while still grinning in good humor, "Hope you make it home soon, thanks for the directions!"

The brunette then took off running, waving good-bye to Riku. The sky-blue eyes which entranced the silver-haired man then disappeared as the brunette turned away and continued into the dark of the night, the splashing of his feet hitting puddles grew fainter and fainter.

Riku snapped out of his trance, jumped to his feet, one hand out at the direction the boy was running, "Wait, what's your name?!" But it was too late, the angel-like boy was gone.

At around 2:45 am, Riku had finally trudged through his apartment door, beers in one hand and umbrella in the other. He dropped the beers to the floor, kicked off his sandals, and plopped onto the single cushion chair next to the couch.

"Oi! What took you so long?," Axel said, head popping up from the lying on the couch, "I half wanted to call the cops thinking you were being chopped up by a serial killer or raped or both-"

The pyro stopped as he finally noticed the unreadable expression on Riku's face as the silverette stared listlessly at the ceiling.

"Er, Ri? You ok? Ri! Riku! RIKU!" Axel was practically yelling at the zoned out man's ear but Riku continued to stare unseeingly into space.

The red-haired man waved his hand in front of Riku's face "Ri! You're starting to worry me now man!"

"I didn't even know his name..." Riku finally spoke.

"Huh? Who's name?" Axel said, staring at his friend in confusion.

Riku relayed his encounter to his best friend, still clutching the polka-dotted umbrella tightly in his fist.

"...So, you randomly meet this 'umbrella boy', who gives you his umbrella, then runs off,"
Axel said slowly, "And then you realized you fell in love with him at first sight..."

"..." Riku slowly nodded, hardly believing it himself how quickly he fell for the cute brunette since they met.

"Well, welcome to my world," Axel clapped a hand on Riku's shoulder, "I remember taking one look at Roxy and totally swooned." The pyro smiled dreamily at the memory.

Riku glared at his friend, "At least you knew who he was, I didn't even think to get a name out of...umbrella boy, until he was gone. Agh, who knows when I'll see him again..."

The silverette covered his face with his forearm in misery, Axel patted his friend's shoulder while vaguely aware that the situation had ironically switched between the two.

"c'mon, cheer up! I'm sure you'll see umbrella boy again, I mean the guy said he lived a few blocks from that bus stop near the liqour store right? That means he lives around the neighborhood, so you're bound to see him again," Axel said comfortingly, trying to ease his friend back to reality.

"Yeah..." Riku sighed, finally lifting his head up from the chair, "I think I'll get some sleep, I need to hand in that assignment tommorow. After that, I'll hang around the bus stop again to see if I'll see him again..."

"Dedicated as a fellow espionage spy in love," Axel saluted Riku as the man headed to bed,
"Night, lover boy."

"Night," Riku shortly replied, wondering with a heavy heart if he was going to turn into a crazy love stalker like his pyro friend...
