Pairing: Aiba Masaki/ Sakurai Sho; Matsumoto Jun/ Ohno Satoshi;
Rating: PG-13
Warning: none
Summary: Aiba has a special ability – he can see shadows surrounding people who can’t get rid of their past and what had happened to them and the people they once loved. As psychologist it’s Aiba’s duty to help them getting rid of their bad experiences (and their shadows) to start a new life.
Aiba opened his eyes. He leaned against the tree right next to the street. Nino was next to him, shaking him slowly. “Ma-chan, thanks god, you are awake.”
“What …” Aiba turned to the other side. There was an ambulance and Sho running up and down, yelling with the ambulance men. “Jun, Ohno,” Aiba pressed out.
Nino looked sad. “Jun got hit by a car. Ohno is okay. Jun had pushed him to the other side. But he’s totally absent-minded. He can’t remember what had happened to him. He can’t remember how he got here. And he got a slap from Sho.”
Aiba tried standing up. “How’s Jun?”
Nino helped him. “No idea, he is on the way to the hospital. No one was able to say something. I was at his side at first. His heartbeat was slow and he was unconsciousness, but I think he’ll make it. Jun is a strong person.”
Aiba stopped moving for a moment when he saw Sho yelling with Ohno, who stood next to him, looking small and broken. “Nino, maybe you were right. It’s time to talk about my ability. It’s time to explain what’s going on here. That wasn’t Ohno’s will to die here. It was his shadow.”
Nino blinked at him. “You mean the shadow made this?”
Aiba nodded. He looked around. He could see the small shadow standing not far away from him. Aiba knelt down. “You helped him, right?” It was the first time Aiba talked with a shadow directly, but it was out of a good reason he did this here.
The girl nodded. “The woman is gone. I destroyed her.” Aiba blinked. He had never experienced this, but the shadow turned into a real person. The small girl had a red skirt with a white blouse underneath it. Her hair was bound to a pigtail. She had a teddy bear on her arm.
“That’s good,” Aiba smiled.
“What?” Nino asked. Aiba was glad that Nino already knew his secret. Otherwise it would have become really difficult now.
“The girl destroyed Ohno’s shadow.” Aiba looked at Nino. “Please don’t ask me, I have never heard of something like this before.”
“Okay, I think I don’t understand anything here anymore. Let’s go to the others and then we make a plan together. We should hurry before Sho kills Ohno.” Nino pointed at Sho, who ran up and down, yelling with Ohno.
“Okay,” Aiba said. He turned to the small girl before he started walking. “Can you stay at my side? I think I’ll maybe need you later on.”
The girl nodded at him. Aiba didn’t know why his brain was able to work in such a moment, but he had a plan. They hurried to get to Sho and Ohno.
“Aiba,” Sho said. He looked at him. “Are you okay? I am sorry that I didn’t come up to look after you, but you know …” Sho said.
Aiba raised his hands. “I am okay. How about driving to the hospital?”
Sho nodded. He looked at Aiba, who pulled on Ohno’s arm. “He shall come with us?” Sho asked.
“Yes, because he is part of your family,” Aiba said. “And I think we all need to talk with each other, so come on now. It’s not the time to fight now. We need to get to Jun.”
It seemed to work, because neither Sho nor Ohno said something. They walked up to Nino’s car to get away from there. The police had ended their questioning and the broken car was already taken away from the street. Luckily the driver didn’t get hurt. He just got under observation because of the shock.
~~~
Their way to the hospital was silent. No one said a word, and the air felt thin and dark. Aiba looked at the empty space next to him. The small girl sat there, her head leaning against Sho. For Aiba’s surprise she didn’t pull any energy from him at the moment. She was beautiful. She had wonderful brown eyes, and a sweet smile.
They hurried to get into the hospital, and immediately Aiba knew why he hated these places. There were shadows everywhere around him. He tried to ignore them, but he could nevertheless feel them.
“Go away,” Aiba looked down right next to him. The girl stood there, pointing at the shadows around them. They stepped backwards and step by step each and every disappeared. Aiba blinked. He really had never heard something like this before.
Aiba formed a silent thank you around his lips and made the girl smile at him. “Papa is afraid, and I want you to get to my uncle. He needs all of you.”
They reached the door to the emergency room. “How is he?” Sho asked the first nurse coming along.
“I am not allowed to say something for now, please wait a little longer,” the nurse said, guiding them to a waiting room.
For Aiba’s surprise they were alone in the room. “I work here,” Aiba heard Nino saying. He turned to see Nino’s touching Sho’s shoulder. “I go and try to get some information. I’ll be back soon.” Sho nodded at Nino.
Before Nino left, he looked at Aiba, nodding at him encouraging. He knew what his friend wanted to tell Aiba. Now was the time to talk about everything.
Ohno sat on one of the chairs. He looked at the ground, not reacting to any noise around him.
“How can you do something like this? If you want to end your life, then do it, but don’t call my brother and pull him into this shit,” Sho screamed. His cheeks were red and he was furious.
Aiba raised his hands. “Okay, can I please say something?”
“Oh no, no therapeutic stuff. Not now. Don’t tell me that Ohno needs help and that he is oh so poor. He almost killed Jun, or maybe worse. Maybe he already killed him.” Sho’s voice was high pitched.
“I can’t remember,” Ohno said. “I swear, I can’t remember.”
“Oh come on, fool someone else,” Sho blurred out.
Aiba stood up. “Shut up now.” Aiba wasn’t the type who got enraged easily, but he knew that there was no other chance that Sho would listen to him.
Sho looked at him, his eyes dark. “Okay, talk.” He sat down on one of the chairs, looking at Aiba.
Aiba breathed out. “Okay, I believe Ohno-kun. It wasn’t you, it was your dead wife pulling you into this.”
“Are you going insane now?” Sho laughed out loud. “Did you get an apoplexy during the accident?”
Aiba had thought about a reaction like this. He wasn’t prepared to a talk like this, because except Nino he had never talked about it before, but this was for Ohno’s sake, and in the end also for Jun’s sake. “No. I am not insane.”
“Listen to me,” Aiba said. He sat next to Ohno, taking Ohno’s hand.
Ohno had looked at him with his mouth wide open. “My dead wife? I have never told you that it was my wife.”
Aiba smiled. He squeezed Ohno’s hand to show him that he was on his side – if there would be sides in this whole mess. “She stayed here because you couldn’t let go. She got stronger because she was jealous and she wasn’t able to let you go on with someone else.” Aiba looked from Ohno to Sho. “And she took your senses. She wanted to make you follow her.”
Ohno blinked. Aiba wasn’t sure if he believed what he had told him or not.
“You really are insane. You are a scoundrel,” Sho said. “Do you listen to the nonsense you talk about?”
“Papa…,” the girl sighed. She looked directly at Aiba before she jumped down from the seat next to Sho. She walked up to Aiba.
“I am Koko. I am Sho’s daughter,” she said.
Aiba knelt down. “Nice to meet you, Koko.”
“Oh no.” Sho jumped up. “Don’t play tricks on me. I called that name accidentally, don’t fool me now with it. You are the worst Aiba-san.”
“I was nine years old when I died,” she explained.
Aiba looked up at Sho. “She was nine years old when she died.”
Sho shook his head. “No, I don’t know where you got that information from, but stop doing that, you fool.”
“My father and my mother got divorced one year after my death. I think I am the reason for it, because they couldn’t take it anymore,” Koko said.
“You got divorced after your daughter’s death. She thinks that she was the reason,” Aiba said. He had no idea if it was the right way, but he had to try it. There was no other chance to make Sho believe him.
A/N: Here we are again, and only one chapter left. x_X I am sorry for hruting Jun here <3 What do you think? Is he alright? And what about Sho? Wll he believe in Aiba's words?
