Who: Maeko, Kanaye
What: Using boyfriend as babelfish.
Where: Kanaye's room
When: Evenning. Pre OMG, S!TOSHI
Why: For threading?

Maeko's attempt at reading through the thick, heavy, stupid english book had been going unnaturaqlly well thoughout the time here. Something about being so close to the sea made her more motivated, she was reading through it because she wanted to rather than because she felt obliged to and it was making all the difference in the world.

But enthuseasm wasn't all too helpful when the book was stupid and english and old and she had reached a sentence that she couldn't understand no matter how hard she tried.

She trusted Tom better to translate accurately and she sort of wanted to go visit Max but she really did ought to be spending time with Kanaye and he would probably know.

"Senpai? You in?" She asked, knocking on the door.

Oh. She noticed. Kanaye nodded smiling. "Of course I am. I'm perfectly ok. I couldn't be better. I mean, no problems at all. Not at all." Even to himself, it sounded unbelievable and completely pointless. Kanaye looked worried, and sighed. "I can't lie to you, Maeko..."

"It's just. Mom came. You know that, right? Well. She had some news. When I get back, I'm supposed to move out of the dorms and back into my house. And dad's starting up that stupid training again..." He sighed. "Why can't they just leave me alone? Why..." He shook his head. "...But. That doesn't matter right now. You're here. And that's all I need." He kissed her again and held her close. "Thank you, Maeko..."

Maeko wasn't sure whether to object to the obvious lies. She didn't particularly like the idea of inquiring further if Kanaye didn't want to discuss it, no matter how much she wanted to know. Fortunately, Kanaye called himself out on his own stupid obvious lie and saved her the trouble.

"Oh..." Maeko had to remind herself that this was a bad and unreasonable thing rather than something that should be accepted. "That's not good. Is there any reason for it?"

The words 'all I need' gave her mixed feelings. On the one hand, it was what she wanted. To be able to be so reliable that someone could rely on her so much. On the other, and that same presence that had calmed her so in the ocean stirred uncomfortably, being entirely responsible for someone's happiness was terrifying. Too much responsibility. Too much could go wrong and it would be her fault.

"I'm glad I can help!" She said, the first part of her silencing the second part and saying it was dumb as it always did but taking longer than ever.

"My 18th birthday. It's in a month. And dad wants me to take over the company." He sighed. "It's just. Not fair. I don't want to take over his stupid company. It could go rot in hell for all I care. Him too. Would certainly save me some trouble."

He sighed to himself and smiled. "Thank you, Maeko. It really means a lot to me..."

It was all he knew. He knew he loved her. She...well. He thought she loved him. More then he could say about anyone else. She was all he needed. He needed her. He needed someone to love him, and he has it. He won't let her not love him. He won't let anyone take her away from him.

In hell? Maeko couldn't really keep herself from paling at even the idea of thinking something like that, let alone saying it. And not just because hell had been unpleasant. It was disrespectful. It was improper. And if Kanaye wasn't so pathetic right now that it would have felt like kicking a puppy she might even have expressed this.

She forced her smile back and squeezed Kanaye's hand. "Already? Sorry, I forgot about that. But...I'm here and-." A pause while she reminded herself once again than this was bad. "It'll all work out somehow. I'm sure it'll be okay."

"Thank you, Maeko...I know you're here...I love you. Please...don't leave..." he said, kissing her on the lips as he held her close. "I make you happy, right? I don't hurt you...right? You love me, right?" He asked, somewhat pathetically. He wanted confirmation. He wanted someone to let him know that they love him, and that he makes them happy.

"I don't know what to do. I can't inherit that stupid company...I'm too stupid to. And I can't do anything else...But I don't want to inherit it...Maeko, what should I do? I can't...It's not fair, dammit. I don't want to..."

Maeko didn't know what to say for a second. This was...probably not normal. "Of course I love you." She said after a few seonds, feeling bad for hesitating. She wanted to confirm that he didn't hurt her. It would have been true enough, he'd been gentle and helpful and kind and had not once tried to yell until yelled back at, if she could just shake this distict feeling that she was somehow being strangled. "And you don't hurt me at all but you're being kind of scary."

"I don't really know. It's not really a situation I've ever been in." She said, shaking her head. "Have you tried just saying you don't want to do it?"

	Kanaye looked at her, eyes wide. "What? I'm being scary? Maeko, I am so sorry, I didn't mean to be, why am I scary? I'll change! I can change! I'm sorry, it won't happen again, I'm sorry, please don't leave..." he said rapidly. He let go of her and looked away. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." "Yes. He won't listen."

"Kind of, yes!" Maeko said, the scary thing further confirmed. She waited until he let go and calmed down, making no move to resume contact.

"It's okay but..." She sighed. "It's not like I'm going to run off or anything." She couldn't think of a nice way to add 'unless you keep freaking out at me' to that sentence and so chose not to. "You don't need to get so worked up."

	"Sorry..." He said, looking down. "I'm just...I just. Sorry. It won't happen again." He shook his head. "I didn't mean to." "Anyway..." He looked at her and smiled. "Do you want or need anything else?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Just don't do it again, okay?" Maeko said, sighing. "I only really needed to know what the word meant but..." She was almost sure she would regret asking this. But doing things she would regret later was sort of what she did. "Have you been getting enough sleep? Or any sleep at all?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"...No. I can't sleep. I try. I can't. Stupid laughter..." He said, sighing to himself. "Keeping me awake at night..." He looked at Maeko, curiously. "It's stopped, though. Just when you came in. Why?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-03-16 02:50 am UTC (link)
	"...oh, someone was laughing? I didn't hear anyone outside." She tried to think of who would laugh so loud. Reizo was the only person who initially came to mind and the room he was in was a long way from here. All signd pointed to her boyfriend being batshit crazy. "I don't know. I guess I'm not funny?" She suggested uselessly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-03-16 02:54 am UTC (link)
	"...It's not outside...It's..." Kanaye shook his head. "It's Indra. My goddamn persona is laughing at me..." He sighed and buried his face into his hands. "It stopped but...there's something else, now. I'm going crazy..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-03-16 03:01 am UTC (link)
	"It's... oh." Maeko wasn't sure what to say to that. The noise she attributed to the witch was nothing new to her, at least. "But it stopped, right! That's good! You mean like now? now or just before I entered now?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-03-16 03:02 am UTC (link)
	"Just before you entered. Like, 10 seconds before." He sighed. "I just. I don't know what to do about it...It's keeping me up at night." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-03-16 07:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh." Maeko thought. There was a pretty obvious solution. "In that case if it's quiet now why don't you just sleep now?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-03-16 07:16 pm UTC (link)
	"...With you in here?" He looked at her, confused. Was this some sort of come on? He doubted it, Maeko wasn't one for things like this. He shrugged. "I'm not sure if I can sleep with you in the same room..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-03-16 08:05 pm UTC (link)
	"I can always go if you want to take advantage of the quiet time while it lasts." She said. "You're going to get unwell if you don't sleep." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-03-16 08:15 pm UTC (link)
	Kanaye looked at her, sadly, and nodded. "Alright, Maeko..." He moved over and kissed her on the lips gently. "Good night..." He said as he laid back and tried to get to sleep. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Night. Love you!" Maeko said softly, picking up her book and leaving. Maybe a little too quickly. She at least took care to close the door silently behind her. (Reply to this) (Parent)
