~A Muse of an Artist~ (Akira&Shiki & Funny Otaku)

[Akira&Shiki]

"Mhm… yeah," Fiore said.

 

"She collapsed after a… show…" the doctor over the phone said.

 

Fiore got a migraine. What the doctor had meant made Fiore very upset. He had told her not to…!

 

"I'll come soon," Fiore said.

 

The doctor sighed through the phone. "Great. She needs you."

 

After taking the phone call, Fiore came back, his eyes widened in fear and worry.

 

"What's wrong?" Kia asked.

 

Fiore looked at the ground. "My mother is in the hospital…"

 

"She's what?!"

 

Fiore shook his head and rushed out the door. As he was running, he passed Echo. Wait… when had Echo left? But forget that! His mother was in critical condition!

[Funny Otaku]

Echo shocked when Fiore went running past him. What why did he looked panicked. Echo knew in his logical side he was gonna regret this but Fiore was one of the first in year to not think of him as a freak. So shaking his head.

 

"Fiore!" He yelled running after the other man, his satchel bouncing up and down and his glasses close to falling off.

 

"Whats wrong!" He yelled almost caught up to the other.

 

once he caught up he kept pace with the other.

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore stopped when he noticed Echo. He didn't know why he stopped. Usually, in that situation, he'd ignore whoever it was. But heading Echo, he stopped and stared, his eyes almost brimming with tears. He hated this vulnerability he displayed, but he couldn't quite help it. At least not at this moment.

 

"She's… my mother is in the hospital."

[Funny Otaku]

Echo's eyes widened.

He immediately took out his phone.

"Max get to *insert street name* NOW!" He screamed into the phone within 3 minutes Max was there.

"Fiore get in." He pushed the other in the car.

"Max i don't care if you get a speeding ticket go to the hospital now!"

"Yes sir." He smiled at the other.

Now echo turned his attiontion to Fiore.

"Lisen to me it's gonna be okay..Trust me." He looked the other in the eyes and held his face with his hands wiping his tear.

Though Echo had all these issue, it always seemed he was the only one calm in emegerincei. He figure it was because the overwhelming thought of making some unhappy. So he just clicks into a different Echo.

[Akira&Shiki]

It happened to fast. Echo had called his manager and now they were in a car. It was a little surprising to see a calm and collected Echo rather than that nervous Echo from before. But it was reassuring. Fiore reached to Echo and hugged him close. He needed someone to hug and assure him that his mother would be fine.

 

He didn't say anything. But he felt so much better just by listening to Echo.

[Funny Otaku]

Echo held the other tightly he wanted to be comfort for him.

"It's gonna be okay Fiore."

Soon they got to the hopital. He Let the other out of the car and looked to Max.

"Always helping other Echo. Just do me a favor..Don't hurt yourself over this, I know how when you hold it in the migraines you get."

Echo nodded.

He looked Back at Fiore,

"Let's go."

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore took Echo's encouraging words to heart. When they walked into the hospital, Fiore first nervous. He hadn't seen his mother in what felt like years… He walked to the woman in the front desk and was soon being shown to the elevator and up to the third floor where his mother would be. The nurse stopped at room 307 and let them in. Fiore stepped inside first. His mother was asleep in bed. She looked exactly the same: her lively blonde hair (that matched Fiore's) and if her eyes were open, one could see her bright green eyes.

 

"Nina…" Fiore mumbled, saying his mother's first name casually.

 

A doctor popped her head in and smiled to the group. "Oh, you all know Nina? Great! She was upset before she fell asleep because she wanted to see her kids." The doctor looked at Fiore. "You're clearly her child, I assume. So where's her other?"

 

Fiore looked at the ground. The doctor was talking about his brother…

[Funny Otaku]

Echo held the others hand as a form of comfort. He took a deep breath.

When they walked in he saw the women in the bed. She was stunning still at her age.

"Yes beautiful...Hair..she could be a model. your hair looks like hers."

He smiled at the other but on the inside his anxiety was builtin up again.

"other? You have a sibling?"

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore looked at Echo. "She's talking about my older brother. He's a problem child, so it's hard to track him down."

 

The doctor's face became troubled. "But she wants him as well. She made sure that Florence came as well."

 

Fiore chuckled despite his worry. His brother hated his given name, so he ran off and started calling himself Ace.

 

"He's here?" Fiore asked.

 

The doctor nodded. "Well, he was in here a moment ago."

 

"Ah, I'm right here." That voice sounded like Ace's…

 

Fiore turned around to his his brother. Instead of having blonde hair, he had bright, fiery hair that looked wild and crazy. Otherwise, he and Fiore could have been twins.

 

"Ace…" Fiore grumbled, looking at his older brother.

[Funny Otaku]

Echo kinda felt the trension in the room. He was starting to loose his ability to keep it in like always he was starting to get a really bed migraine. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Letting go of the other hand and using it to hold his head.

He manged to look up at the older one. His hair was stunning, was all echo thought he always loved cool hair.

"Nice to meet you...Im Echo...sorry if you to will please excuse me."

He walked out of the room grabbing by now his aching head. He knew he had to get some where he could sit down with the lights off...He went up to a nurse.

"Ma'am," The room was staring to spin. "Is there some where I can lay or sit down It seems like i may passed out...I have a history of maigrans that cause that. Anndd" He leand over, it hurt so bad and it was spinning.

"Oh god Of course I'll check you in and then you can lay down in the room."

"Thank---you." Echo nodded and followed her.

He sat on the bed,

"This will be yours do you want me to call anyone?"

"No than you."

She turned off the lights and closed the door. Echo fell to his back on the bed closing hi eyes.

[Akira&Shiki]

The commotion kept Fiore's attention on his family. He didn't want his brother around his mother. After all, her sickness was caused by stress. He couldn't have her collapsing again.

 

Ace looked at Fiore. "Long time no see, Fiore. Mom's gotten a crazier, eh?"

 

"Don't call her crazy," Fiore argued back.

 

Ace shrugged. "Oh, where did that cute guy go?"

 

"Cute guy?" Fiore repeated.

 

Ace pointed behind him. "Glasses kid. Ya know, short and cute and glasses wearing."

 

Echo! Where the heck was Echo?

[Funny Otaku]

Echo felt as though his head was heavy. It sucked it was always like this when he held in his feelings. His eyes were still closed.

He felt his phone buzz in his pocket, quickly he turned the brightness all the way down as it was torcher to look at max had texted him.

'Hey hows it going.'-Max

'Fine I checked myself in bad migraine I feel like I'm dyeing.'- Echo

'Just lay down when it's over I'll pick you up your parents want to have dinner tomorrow with you.'-Max

'Okay'-Echo

He turned his phone off, closing his eyes again. He just need to rest. He went under the blanket and started to try to fall asleep. After a few he succeed which was nice because in his sleep he didn't feel the pain in his head.

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore stood up and patted Ace on the back. "Take care of mom, I'll be back."

 

He searched the hallway for Echo. Where the heck was he? Echo wasn't in any waiting rooms, nor was he in the hallway… Fiore asked a nurse for Echo's whereabouts and finally located him. The nurse showed him to a room, but warned him that Echo wasn't feeling well, so Fiore couldn't be too loud.

 

Fiore walked into the room to see Echo asleep. He didn't want to wake him up, so he say down and waited.

[Funny Otaku]

Echo woke up because he heard the door. Slowly he opened his eyes, looking around the room. He saw Fiore in the chair.

"Fiore." He mumbled trying to get the others attention.

"What are you doing what about your mom?" He asked confused

He held onto his head still,looking at the other.

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore frowned. "I'm in here to check on you."

 

He saw how Echo held his head as he lowered his voice. "Are… are you okay?"

 

What was wrong with Echo to the point that he had to quietly disappear and go into a hospital room? Was it the situation? Or the tenseness in the air in his mother's room? Oh, he hoped not. He didn't want to be the one that caused Echo to feel unwell.

[Funny Otaku]

He smiled at Fiore.

"It's.. I'm fine, anytime I hold in my anxiety, I end up getting really bad margarines. It hurts a lot but i'm fine it happens a lot, Max already knows." He sighed.

Holding his head, the pain had gone down a little but it still hurt. Echo felt bad that Fiore wasn't with his family.

"You should go back your mother needs you, I'm sure your brothers happy to see you too," He smiled commenting.

Echo was shaking again not because he was scared or anything, just his bodies reaction.

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore shook his head. "I can't just leave you. Right now, my mom has my brother. If I left you, who would you have until Max gets here? I came to find you because I was worried… so I'll wait here until Max comes, okay?"

 

He was very adamant about that. And it was the truth… that's how he felt.

[Funny Otaku]

Echo gave him a small smile.

"Thank you..." He was feeling better but he wanted to talk to Fiores mother and brother.

"I think I'll be okay..I want to meet you family."

He stood up slowly, and felt a little dizzy.

"Let's go see you family."

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore heard Echo's request. He just wanted to meet his family. The main problem was that Echo didn't seem totally up to it.

 

"Echo, are you sure?" Fiore asked. "If you're not feeling well…"

[Funny Otaku]

Echo smiled.

"Im fine..Im less ill then your mother and I want to make sure your there when she wakes up, plus I want to tell her how amazing she looks if she wants and when she is health i could get her a modeling job, I mean it she is beautiful."

Echo took the others hand and guided both of them slowly back to the other room once he got there he sit down on the closet chair and pulled his knees up to rest his head.

[Akira&Shiki]

Fiore looked at Echo in concern, but he was soon preoccupied by his brother, Ace.

 

When Ace saw Echo, he smiled. "And who is this adorable cutie?"

 

Fiore sighed at his brother. "His name is Echo. Call him by his name."

 

Ace raised an eyebrow at Fiore. "Somebody sounds jealous."

[Funny Otaku]

Echo looked up,

"He's right my name is Echo, It's nice to meet Fiore's family. He is very nice so I'm guessing you guys are too." He smiled as he talked though echo was still shaking because of who he was.

But right now his migraine had turned into a low grade head ache and he was happy.

"Im sorry for your mother..um I'm sorry i know i heard your name before but what is it? Also i really do like how you did your hair."

[Akira&Shiki]

"My name?" Ace asked, his eyes casting from Fiore's back to Echo. "My name's Ace… oh, my hair? Thanks. I just dyed and it. It's not too crazy, right? I don't like my blonde hair… it makes me look too much like my mother…" Ace's face grew grave for a quick second, but he soon amiked again. "So yeah, I just come back into town to find out that I've got to make a visit to the hospital. So, you here with Fiore? A friend of his or something?"

 

Fiore glared at his brother, upset that he was starting to ask more questions.

[Funny Otaku]

"I'm sorry about the terrible welcome home." Echo sighed. "Why would you not want to look like your mother?" He asked extremely shocked.

"She's so exquisitely beautiful, She could be a famous model." He smiled, then looked at his knees. "Thou I still like your hair."

He held his legs tight as his timidness showed threw. Everyone in this family was very good looking.

"Actually...This will sound weird. I only met him earlier today.." He nervously laughed. "I model..and his friend was at the shoot, my manger, Max talked to him and must have taken a liking to him, because he told me that he would let Fiore have me as a model for free..in exchange he would help me be more social....I'm bit socially awkward....and...Im very anxious...Im always scared...So I had just let his apartment..after dinner with him and his friend...I was walking home and...Fiore was in a panic...running...so...I tried to help...and brought him here." His voice was cracking and he was stuttering. He was very anxious but he was use to this feeling...

"So.."

[Akira&Shiki]

"He doesn't want to look like our mom for various reasons… she's just a little… I'm not sure how to explain it. I guess, if you hang around a little more, you'll see," Fiore explained.

 

Ace nodded. "That's it. Anyways, Echo, you're cute the way you are. Why should my brother try to change you?"

 

Fiore sighed. "I'm just doing what his manager asked. His manager cares for Echo's well being. Stop asking useless questions, Ace."

 

"Oh? Useless, huh?" Ace asked, seeming to tease his brother.
