MUSICAL LOVE [BL]

Chapter 18 - CHAPTER 18



<TAI KARU'S P.O.V>

After Yu left his siblings and the other members of Amour arrived. Raya ran over to one of the guys with Alex. His name Was Exill, Alex's brother and Karu discovered he was her fiance. Alex explained to them what happened, when Jason was mentioned they both reacted. Karu decided that "Jason," whoever he was was a big deal but it was probably personal so he kept quiet. Thankfully Komaki was to busy drooling over the fact that his idols were standing next to him to register anything they were saying or he definitely would have started asking questions.

Karu felt someone tapping his shoulder and looked over to see May pointing towards the door., Karu nodded. She got Yoku and Komaki's attention and they left quietly. They had to sneak by a few people but most of them had left, so their escape was smooth.

Eventually they split up to head home. When Karu arrived home he was welcomed with Lily throwing herself at him as she smiled happily. "You were amazing Karu!" she exclaimed. Lily had seen him play many times but she never seemed to get any less excited.

That night Karu fell asleep with a smile on his face but in the back of his mind he wondered what happened that made Yu so upset.

The next morning when Karu woke up Lily was hovering over his face staring at him. Karu jumped and sat up quickly. Lily stepped back quickly so she wouldn't get hit by his head. "You weren't waking up," she said as Karu rubbed his eyes and yawned.

Karu glanced at the clock next to his bed. 8:46, Karu was suddenly very awake. School started in less than 15 minutes. "Why didn't my alarm go off," he asked as he jumped out of bed and started pulling on some clean clothes.

"It did, but you weren't waking up," Lily said Karu had completely forgot she was still there. "Why aren't you at school?" he asked as he pulled on a shirt.

"Something happened to the pluming and the first floor folded yesterday, school's closed for the rest of the week so they can fix it," she replied before leaving the room. Karu heard his mom talking to someone in her room. Probably in a meeting, he thought.

Karu grabbed his things and started stuffing them in his bag, as he pulled on his shoes he heard his sister call his name as he spun around to see what she needed, a lunch box came soaring towards him. With a bit of fumbling Karu caught it with out dropping anything.

He stuffed his lunch box along with a folder covered in music stickers into his bag, and slung it over his shoulder. He grabbed his guitar before running out the door.

Karu got to class just as the bell rang, he ran to his seat as the teacher walked in and his chair slid across the floor a few inches creating a sound laud enough for the teacher to look his way annoyed. As class started, Karu glanced at Yu who was sitting a few tables away. Whatever had happened yesterday didn't seem to be bothering him anymore.

They weren't having anymore practice for the next few days so they could relax, they were all still hanging out in the club room anyway though. It gave them an escape from post-concert fans, and they had snacks.

Karu sat on the sofa next to May eating a bag of Doritos as he scrolled through the school forum. Someone had put together a website were all the members of the school could talk and gossip. They only way to get in was with a password that was found put up near the school office. It was changed at the beginning of every year so graduated students couldn't get in anymore. Everyone was talking about the concert, which is what Karu had expected since it was what always happened. There were people already asking when the next concert would be. Karu saw some hate comments but their were completely over flowed with people telling them off. The other most popular subject was Yu, Karu heard people talking about him all day yet Yu still seemed completely oblivious.

May was Reading a book as she slurped from a large bottle of fruit juice. Mango. May loved mango juice but it was pretty expensive so she didn't buy it often.

When Yoku and Komaki arrived Komaki threw himself on the couch opposite Karu. He sat upside down with his head hanging inches from the floor. Yoku grabbed some gummy packs off the snack shelf and sat next to Komaki. He started eating the gummies. Komaki opened his mouth and Yoku dropped some into it.

Karu heard Yu playing near the back room. He was playing on his acoustic guitar that he'd brought with him today and was singing quietly so Karu could barely hear his voice.

Karu put his phone down and relaxed into the chair as he listened to him play. Yu seemed to cause Karu the be calm and relaxed but at the same times he seemed to push him to be better. Karu realized that he was falling asleep, he yawned as he nodded off.

When Karo woke up he could still here May flipping pages in her book, although he didn't open his eyes Karu guessed Yoku and Komaki were still sitting on the couch since he could here them both snoring quietly.

Yu was still playing, although the song had changed it was still the Quiet and calming tunes that seemed to calm people so much it was scary. Karu opened his eyes and looked around the room as he blinked the sleep out of his eyes. Komaki was leaning against Yoku's shoulder snoring quietly.

Karu looked back at Yu he had his head down and was staring at the guitar as he played with sleepy eyes. Karu relaxed back into the chair and lay his head on the arm rest. before falling back to sleep. He wished he could stay in this moment forever.
