Inspiration

[Uruha(麗)]

Maya's brow was furrowed as his pen stopped its movements over the paper, unable to write anything down. He sighed, setting it down as he leaned back and thoughtfully twirled his lollipop between his long, pale fingers. He couldn't think of anything right lately, basically, he had writer's block. Now if only there was something that could happen...

Maya packed up his pen and papers, carefully placing them back into his bag before getting up, looking around in the practice room. As expected, there were guitars, basses, a drum set, microphones... Sadly, there were no others with him in this room. He picked up his bag, wanting to get some fresh air as he pushed open the heavy soundproof door, stepping into the hallway.

Maya's voice started with a small, gentle hum, slowly growing louder into its full potential, singing out a song he had wrote when he hung out with Aiji-senpai a while ago. He had thought of the lyrics as he stared up at the night sky, wondering if each of them had their own names. Childish, some people would say, but this was his inspiration.

"Wasurete~ Shimau darou... " His bold, clean voice echoed slightly in the halls.

Takeru wondered through the hallways of the school's 'state of the art' practice rooms. Really they were just box rooms full of instruments of all types, half of them probably never used. He'd been warming up his voice in one of the many rooms just in case he had to sing that day. Though really he knew he wouldn't have to, seeing as he hadn't found any band members yet. The boy hoped as the year went on he'd find a band to join.

As he turned a corner he walked straight into maya, not having been paying much attention to where he was going and so deep in his own thoughts that he hadn't hard the other's voice. "O-oh! Sorry! I wasn't lookign where I was going!" he said with a short laugh, rubbing the back of his head with a hand, a habit he'd picked up by watching too much anime as a child. "I didn't hurt you right?" he asked, checking over the other with his eyes to make sure he was ok, not that someone could get hurt by someone as tiny as Takeru walking into them.

[Uruha(麗)]

Maya's singing turned into a small surprised yelp, taking a step back but reaching out towards the other to prevent him from falling. "No it's okay! I wasn't looking either." He smiled, straightening up when he realized it was Takeru. "Hurt? Nah, I'm fine. I'm more worried about you, people usually get knocked over by me..." He was a bit embarrassed, his height made it difficult to go around in the streets sometimes.

"Were you practicing?" Maya adjusted his bag, flicking his hair away from his eyes to see the other clearly. It had become more of a habit lately since his hair got in the way when he was writing lyrics. "Where are you heading now?" He thought it would be a good idea to walk along with Takeru since he had nothing to do, and get to know the other more than their first encounter.

[Kozi's Spider]

"Nah I'm fine! It'll take more than a little bump to hurt me!" Takeru told the other blonde with a laugh. "I'm hard as a rock!" he continued with a smirk, aware of just how inappropriate that could sound. The shorter man always talked in his way, saying slightly perverted things and not caring who heard or what their reactions might be.

Takeru nodded, smiling at the other. “Just warming up my voice. It’s a daily habit.” He told the taller man, grinning brightly at him. “Ahh I was just wondering around really. Not going anywhere special.” He said with a thoughtful look on his face. “Were you singing just now? I didn’t really hear cause I was thinking. I wanna hear you sing!” he said, bouncing on the balls of his feet in an excited manner.

[Uruha(麗)]

Maya's eyes widened slightly, looking down at the other, unsure if Takeru was aware of what he said. He shrugged it off after a moment, twirling the lollipop in his mouth with his tongue. "Ah, I see.. I was trying to write some lyrics. Didn't really work out though..." He sighed, ruffling his shorter blonde hair. "Wanna just walk around? We could chat anyways, I want to know you better."

"Eh? Ah... It's kind of embarrassing..." He blushed a little, not really having sang in front of anyone but Aiji-senpai properly before. But he didn't want to say no to the other, he was a good friend after all. "Then... alright." He took a deep breath, letting it out before opening his mouth and letting his voice flow out smoothly, singing the same song he had been humming. It was an important song to him, one of his first ideas. "Wasurete~ Shimau darou, katani tsumoru kanashimi wa nagareru hoshi no te ni dakare~" He had a small smile when he sang it, instantly thinking back to that memory of him and senpai just staring up into the night sky.

[Kozi's Spider]

"Ahh, I'm sure you'll get some inspiration at some point!" Takeru said with a bright grin, shoving his hands in his pockets. "Sure! I wanna get to know you more too!" the shorter man said enthusiastically, bouncing on the balls of his feet slightly as he was prone to doing when excited.

“Ah I’m sure you’re not that bad! Common! I’ll show you mine if you show me yours!” Takeru said with a grin, once again making one of his slightly, but no obviously so, sexual comments. He watched the other as he started to sing, his eyes widening slightly. The taller blonde was really good! He smiled as the other did, though it quickly turned into a smirk, prodding the blonde in the side as he stopped singing. “What’s the smile for? Thinking of someone special?” he asked, not caring if he was getting into personal things. If maya didn’t like it then tough, it’s just how the short blonde was.

[Uruha(麗)]

Maya's cheeks flushed slightly pink when he was done, reddening even more at the question. "Well... sort of... I mean, he's important to me." He shrugged, sticking his lollipop back into his mouth to shut up. He reached into his pouch for another and handed it to Takeru, not exactly wanting his own being stolen while he was still eating it. Maya didn't mind Takeru's rather suggestive way of speaking, he had plenty of friends who were perverted.

"It's your turn! You promised~!" Maya poked Takeru's shoulder, grinning down at the shorter blonde. Maybe Takeru could give him some tips on singing, that would help him a lot. New ideas already started forming in his head, and he kept them in mental drawers so he could write down his thoughts into lyrics later. It was a good thing that he bumped into the other after all.

[Kozi's Spider]

Takeru smirked as the other flushed, taking the lollipop and unwrapping it. "Important in what way?" he asked, not shoving the sweet straight into his mouth right away, instead lapping at it with his tongue. "Like... is he your boyfriend or something? Or like a brother?" he chirped, walking backwards infront of the other.

"Ahhh, ok ok!" Takeru whined, thinking of a song to sing. He had a few that he had written that had a tune to. He settled on one of them that he'd come up with a long time ago, deciding to just sing part of the chorus to his friend. "Suki dakedo daiKIRAI kokoro no mama ni majiwaritai yokubatte motto ai shite? horeta mon kachi desho~" he sang in his upbeat and slightly childish voice, a happy look on his face as he did so.

[Uruha(麗)]

Maya shook his head quickly, the redness still on his round cheeks. "Just... a friend I guess. A senpai and a teacher." If only they were lovers, then he could at least brag about that a little. But it was the age difference that kept them apart, and their personalities are completely different, so much that its a wonder how they'd even got along in the first place.

Maya couldn't help but smile widely as he listened to Takeru sing, finding the song and voice amazingly cheerful. "That was cute~! What was your inspiration for it?" He slowed his walking so Takeru wouldn't trip as the other was facing him, not exactly looking at where they were going. "Be careful by the way, there are steps there." He pointed somewhere behind the other, warning him just in case.

[Kozi's Spider]

Takeru thought it was cute the way the other's cheeks flushed, knowing that the blonde probably wanted to be with that guy. "Ahh, he's a bit older than you I guess then? That can be hot~" he told him with a smile, patting the taller man's shoulder. "If it's meant to happen it will~"

"Hmmm, the inspiration... is a secret!" he said with a laugh, turning around as they reached the steps, practically skipping down them with ease. "And... was it really cute? I can't really sound serious when I sing." he told him, humming softly.

[Uruha(麗)]

Maya laughed a little, shaking his head. "Nah, I'm okay with just being friends. We still get along well, though its amazing how we can even talk to each other." He ruffled his hair, restyling his blonde and red locks a little. "I'm taller than him, though! It's amusing to see him being bothered by it." He giggled, shoving his hands into his pockets as they walked.

"Eeeeh~? Why a secret?" Maya stepped down the stairs two at a time, nodding in reply. "It sounded cute, that's not a bad thing. And you probably haven't written songs that need serious tones yet." He wasn't very good with sounding melancholy himself, though he was working on it.

[Kozi's Spider]

"Caaause... it is!" Takeru told him with a laugh, looking around the hallway they were in. It looked liek this part of the building was undergoing rennovations or something... they probably werent supposed to be here. But he didn't really care. Places out of bounds were fun to go into. "I don't like serious songs or sad songs! They're so boring." he told the blonde with a smile.

"Hmm? You're ok with it but you wanna be more than friends with him right?" Takeru asked, now very curious as to what this other person was like that his friend liked so much. "Hmm, maybe I could help you two get together!" he said with a wink, grinning at the other. "What's he like?"

[Uruha(麗)]

Maya pouted, though he couldn't help but let a smile cross his face. He looked around with interest at the surroundings they walked into, wondering what this place was going to be like in the possible near future. "Well, that's true... some are pretty boring, huh?" He sighed, raising his arms behind his head and stretching a little as he walked. "But when you let your feelings out... it's worth listening to."

"No, seriously, I'm okay with it!" Maya seemed a little flustered, since he did sometimes fantasize what a love life with his senpai would be like. Childish fantasies of going on dates and cuddling and stuff... "You don't have to do that, really." But still, another smile was on his lips at the last question. "His name is Aiji. He's kind of stoic sometimes, but he's really nice to me when I'm feeling sad."

[Kozi's Spider]

"Yeh. Though... I don't get many bad feelings!" Takeru said brightly with a laugh. It was obviopusly not true, he was human just like everyone else but his way of coping was to always be happy no matter what the situation.

"Anyway... soooo... if you don't wanna be with him like that... does that mean you're single?" he asked with a grin before turning and peeking around a sheet of thick plastic, seeing a room full of paint tins in all different colours. An idea started forming in the short blonde's mind, grinning as he grabbed Maya's arm and dragged him into the area. "Let's have a paint fight!" he said excitedly, eyes shining with mischievous intent.

[Uruha(麗)]

"Really? That's nice though, you don't have to feel miserable sometimes." Maya smiled at the other's optimism, another new idea started forming in his mind. "I've been starting to feel a little down lately. Probably just weird feelings." He shrugged, already used to these moodswings. Sometimes he'd be happier than a dancing unicorn who lived in rainbow clouds. Then he'd sulk. For hours. For no reason.

"Mmmnnn..." Maya sucked thoughtfully on his lollipop for a moment, then nodding slowly. "Yeah. I'm single. Hehe.." He peeked after Takeru, his head above the other's as they looked at the paint. Quite a comedic picture if you took one. "Paint fight? Won't we get in trouble?" He asked with a huge mischievous grin, already having that idea just as Takeru mentioned it. "We'd better clean up afterwards~!" He joked, grabbing a can and a paintbrush, all ready for the upcoming battle.
