Pairing: Jin x Kame
Author: J
Date: 22.03.2006
Notes: Inspired by KAT-TUN’s Blue Tuesday. Theme for the fic isn’t exactly something original though. I think this is actually my very first Jin/Kame short — and a really short one too — but I’m not sure if this is actually raburabu or more on the friendship side. It is, however, depressing, whichever way you look at it. But hey, the song isn’t even a happy one, so what do you expect?
He sat there on his sofa, staring blankly at the television screen, his mind more focused on his cellphone that lay on the side table than on whatever programme was showing. The sudden ringing sound pierced through the air, and he picked it up in a flash. Wrong number. And he was back to waiting.
Five minutes, ten…
Half an hour, one hour, two… five…
Another five minutes, he told himself. Just another five. But he waited in vain.
Jin wondered when this had started… the waiting.
On work days, there was no need to wait, because Kame was around, so there was no need for him to look forward for a call from his friend. But when the rest days came along, or on those days when he had his own individual work and Kame wasn’t around, whether he was outside or at home lazing, he would end up waiting endlessly, glancing at his phone at every opportunity as if urging it to ring. But when it did ring, it was not the call he was yearning for.
Where did those days went? When they would call each other every day just to say hello and ask what the other person was doing. There was never a day that went by when Jin didn’t hear Kame’s voice.
They would take turns; sometimes Jin would call, sometimes Kame did. But one day, the calls stopped coming, and soon Jin realised he was the only one still taking the initiative. Then he stopped too, if only to see if Kame would ever be the first to call him again. There were a few rare occasions when Kame did call, but it was always purely about work. No short random chit chats. Not anymore.
Jin missed Kame.
But he would never say it aloud. Instead, he decided to hope, and like an idiot, he waited for the call to come.
It never did.
Jin wondered when this had all started… how they ended up this way. Jin wondered what went wrong, and when did it start to go wrong. Jin wondered when he lost Kame. Jin wondered if Kame would ever come back to him. No, not ‘if’. When. He had to believe.
Which is why he’ll keep on waiting for another five minutes. Just another five.

when are you going for your vacation ah?
you make the fic so depressing ne XD lol. I haven’t read akame fics for a longgggggggggggg time, so you should feel proud of me XD hahah
So how are you?
Haha, agree with Maggie: haven’t read Akame for quite some time… ^^
and now you’ve made me read it again! *lol*
It’s strange, although I find the theme itself very depressing and the way it’s described, too, I didn’t find the fic as a whole depressing O_o Probably because it’s Akame and I’ve gotten over the point where I still felt sorry for them *shrugs* (I sound so heartless XD)
Still feel like hugging Jin for not wanting to let go, though ;O;
lol, yeah it was a bit depressing though yet i didn’t find it tooooo depressing because that’s just how akame was and still is? lol, i’m such a bad fan XP
Have you been really busy lately? =( I miss talking to you but i’ve been busy recently too… Have finals coming up next month so i have to prepare for it.
@maggie: I’m sure you were more depressed by the RyoKame one right? Where Kame was with Jin… And I think I’ll feel super proud of you if you ever buy Arashi album. XD Whether or not you read akame or not is not my problem. lol. Actually I found another Chinese RyoKame fic (but AU setting)… actually it’s more like KameRyo! XD Will try to show u some day, but fic not completed anyway (only first few chapters).
