Chapter 810 Red Feather Part 12
Chapter 810 Red Feather Part 12
This entire time he has been searching for the feeling of security and safety that Sumire has brought him. Only when he first started dating Sumire did he know what he had been missing. That missing hole in his heart.
Something was always missing, no matter how much he sang or painted his emotions. Sumire filled that hole subconsciously. Being with her made him feel so safe.
His most peaceful moments were those mornings and nights where they could lay in bed, stay in each other's arms, and just cuddle. The moments where he felt the most safe and secure.
At one point in his life, he started to use the strength he obtained to protect others. For so long, he has been protecting other people. But he finally had someone who would protect him, someone who would watch over him, keep him safe.
A partner who would fight to the ends of the earth for him made him feel safe and loved.
For everything Sumire thanks him for, Yuhi could double it.
Paper check paints check.
Next is, Yuhi rummaged through his bag and found some brushes. It's a good thing he brought his bag. Now that he thought about it, these brushes weren't his. They must be Sumire's. His lips curved into a smile. Even better, he liked the idea of using her belongings.
He doesn't have a fancy canvas and fancy acrylic paints. But that's fine for him. Thanks to his career, he has lived in luxury for the past few years. However, he has never liked that lifestyle. Using wall paint, having simple sheets of paper and brushes suited him far better.
He started to draw Sumire and how she was when they saw each other in the dream space. The sketches were detailed enough, but the minute he used paint. Yuhi had to admit he was impressed with his own work.
'I have to make sure to hide the explicit ones, though. I don't want anybody but me seeing her this way.'
Yuhi stopped drawing Sumire after the tenth time and found himself painting the moon. Looking at the painting, he thinks about his team members.
Since Quatro Light became Midnight Five, with him as the center, they have released a total of five singles and three albums, and their progress as a group is good.
1st Single: Midnight Crow
2nd Single: Da Tenshi Blue
3rd Single: Dummy
5th Single: C No Binetsu
However, this isn't enough. He wants to reach better heights with them all. As for what is holding them back from achieving those better heights, Yuhi already knew. Even though his relationship with Ran has improved, there will always be that wall between them because Ran will never give up his feelings for Sumire.
What he said earlier should reassure him that Ran is trying to move forward now. However, learning what happened between him and Sumire has dismissed any pity he had left for him.
Yuhi exhaled deeply. Maybe he is getting worked up for nothing. But the thought of Sumire in that situation made his blood boil. Even if he forgives Ran for it, he will never truly be able to see him as a friend.
His thoughts broke off, hearing the sound of his phone.
It was Shin who was sending him pictures of Sumire's rehearsal.
From: Yuhi
Tell her she looks like a goddess on that stage, and if she looks like that with just training clothes. She will have half the stadium lusting after her.
After a few minutes, Shin sends him an image of Sumire sticking her tongue out.
Yuhi rolled his eyes, 'I can think of creative ways to make her blush and lose focus. But for now.' He unbuttons his shirt and takes a picture. He sends it to Sumire's phone, knowing that Shin wouldn't appreciate seeing such messages.
From: Shin
Whatever you did, made her blush so badly that the staff now think she is sick.
He holds back his laughter. Sumire really is cute. However, for Shin to be messaging him, Yuhi decides to call him, and Shin immediately replies. Shin didn't waste any time explaining how he and Atsuro have been monitoring Mashima's movements.
"Atsuro almost got us caught the other day. This job is a hassle and very dangerous."
Yuhi understood what Shin was saying without him saying the specific details. Sumire is nearby, so it makes sense why Shin doesn't want her to know. It's dangerous because if Sumire finds out, she will be beyond furious.
"I know, and I appreciate you doing this."
"Appreciation aside. This could damage your relationship with her. She has already said that she trusted him. But if you do this, it will be the same as saying as you don't trust her or her judgment."
Yuhi sighed deeply. "I really don't want her to misunderstand."
"Then just talk to her about this. If we are caught, no doubt the news will reach her ears."
"But-"
Yuhi could almost see Shin shaking his head as he sighed. "Everything you're doing is for her, I get that, and I have had this conversation before."
"With Mamoru?" Yuhi said knowingly.
Only one other person would go so far, for Sumire's sake. Although many guys like her, they claim they will do anything for her. The only ones who have actually proven those words are Mamoru. Yuhi paused, there was one other person, and that was Hino.
"Yes, and that guy is as stubborn as a rock. But you don't have to be. It will hurt Sumire more knowing that you hid this from her, so if I were you, just tell her the next time you talk to her."
"I understand," Yuhi said reluctantly. After a few more words, he hung up the phone and sighed.
It's easier said than done. Yuhi has no idea how he is going to go about approaching this subject. It's not like he is suspicious of Mashima.
'I am genuinely interested in how far he would go to protect Sumire and what he will do. To what extent will he stains those hands?'
So, it was for an experiment. He is risking Sumire's trust and risk seeing Sumire's tear-stained face all because of an experiment. Yuhi sighed. Sumire always mentions how her morals are not right, but the same goes for him.
What is he doing with this experiment that will lead to her being hurt?
