Chapter Two: Future

It felt weird. Here I was standing in front of the practice room door, again. Only this time there was no HIDE to scare the shit out me. I sighed softly. What can we possibly accomplish now, without HIDE?

“Heath?”

Christ. I jumped out of my skin and turned to see Toshi. Toshi smiled softly. “Yoshiki wasn’t sure if you were going to show up.”

“I gave my word,” I said softly. “It’s just weird without…”

“I know. Let’s see what happens.” Toshi stepped past me and opened the door then stepped back. “After you.”

I stepped in and nearly cried. The room looked exactly the same. Yoshiki’s drums were on a raised platform and the guitar stands and microphones were all in the same positions.

“Heath.” Yoshiki smiled. “Thanks for agreeing to this.”

I could only nod. “We are X.” I said softly.

Yoshiki nodded.

Pata was there already. He had his guitar already tuned and resting on the stand. When he saw me he smiled. It was the same smile that he gave me when we first met.

He crossed the room and rested a hand against my cheek. I closed my eyes and breathed him in. It had been hard trying to keep everything together as everything fell apart around us, so we parted friends. Right here right now, with his hand against my face I can admit that I missed him.

“Pata.” I said his name almost as if I was reminding myself of what it was.

“Heath.” He leaned forward and just casually brushed his lips over mine.

“Pata, you should at least let him put his bass down first.” Yoshiki said wryly.

I had nearly forgotten the case in my hand. Pata stepped away and then I noticed another person in the room. I blushed it couldn’t be helped. I was never one for public displays. Within the band it was fine, but this wasn’t a band member.

Yoshiki saw that my attention had turned. “I’ve already asked Pata, I’ve been waiting for you two to ask as well. Everyone should know Sugizo.”

I did recognize him once I pulled myself out of my embarrassment.

“So?” Toshi asked seating himself in one of the folding chairs.

“I’d like to ask if it was okay that he play second guitar temporarily.” Yoshiki replied.

“You’re the band leader Yoshiki.” Toshi retorted.

Yoshiki shook his head. “No. I was a band leader once. Now… now, I’d rather ask then order. We’re a band and I, I’m just a drummer for a band.”

“And pianist.” I added. I couldn’t help it.

“And producer.” Pata added.

“It seems you do more then each one of us do.” Toshi replied. “You’re leader by default.”
Yoshiki sighed. “Do you agree?”

“As long as it’s temporary.” I heard myself say. “HIDE can’t be replaced that easily and I don’t think its right that he should be.”

Yoshiki nodded. “Toshi?”

Toshi looked at Sugizo. “Make him sing back ups like HIDE did. He might as well be useful as long as we have him.”

“Arigato.” Sugizo bowed formally.

“Let’s get to work.” Yoshiki replied and we all did as we did back then, we jumped to attention and got down to business.

Two hours later:

Yoshiki called the end to practice. “We shouldn’t overdue on the first day back.”

It had made sense but if I really stared at Yoshiki I could see the two hours has strained him a lot more then he’ll admit to. I think that’s why we all agreed to stop in reality.

“You still live at the building in town right?” Pata asked me as I was packing up my bass.

I nodded wondering if he keep tabs on me all this time to make sure I was alright.

“Can I walk you home?” Pata asked.

I only nodded again fearing my voice would squeak or not work at all.

Pata smiled and took my hand and lead me out.

It was a miserable day. The rain was coming down harder then I even remember it coming down, but walking down the street with Pata I don’t remember it being gloomy. I couldn’t tell you the conversation that we had or which way we walked, but huddled under that umbrella with Pata after so long was the greatest feeling.

I found my voice when we reached my door. “Did you want to come in?”

He smiled, the same one he gave me when I was wrapped in my bath towel the first time I opened the door to him. “Do you need to get to know me again?”

I leaned forward and kissed him with all the missing years in the act. “I already know you. Come inside.”
