Sometimes I think Sumio and I are the weirdest couple. First of all we are both boys (oh, believe me, Iāve got photos to prove that) but the ironic thing is our names deny the fact that we are male. My name is Guinevere and Sumio is Sumio. Guinevere, as you all know, was the name of King Arthurs wife. My mom was sure I would be a girl. Thatās why I was born as Guinevere despite what is between my two legs.
Sumioās story is different. He had a twin sister named Sumio back in the times when my Sumio was Kyo. In some terrible accident that involved playing with matches, Sumio the twin was burned to death. Thus, Kyoās mother lost her mind and started calling Kyo Sumio, believing he was the actual Sumio. And after 13 years of being called Sumio, Kyo became Sumio afterallā¦
But thatās not the part, or should I say the only part, that makes us weird. The story of us encountering each other is pretty peculiar on its own.
It began with me sliding the razor down my arm and cutting open a vein, Sumio taking just too many pills at once. Later on, while drunk, he confessed āThe amount of pills Iām taking, counteracts the booze Iām drinkingā¦ā he said this as if doing algebra.
But it wasnāt too late when both of us were discovered. I remember the paramedics and the blood stain and the sirens. Sumio remembers the paramedics and the barf all over his face and the sirens as well. Our will to die brought us back to life. Because after all the commotion, finally we were in the hospital beds, and next to each other.. The first thing he uttered to me was āDid you fail too?ā. Although it couldāve been a sarcastic question, and it sounded so, we both knew it was serious. So I replied āIām trying, Iām tryingā¦ā. But after that time, I never tried again, because dying would mean losing him. So if I were to die I think Iād love to die aloneā¦ But now Iām not alone. Sumio is holding my hand.
Never leave two boys, both with girls names alone in a hospital room. Because, in a week, Sumio and I were one. It was as if we knew each other for a life time, not a week. And now I knew what love was. Before I never had a girlfriend or a boyfriend. Iām known to be unsocial. And I didnāt mind much anyways. Sumio, but Sumio and I are chemistry. Chemistry of love. Sumio is my chemical romance. I canāt think of a life without him. When I close my eyes, trying to sleep in bed without him beside me sometimes I think Iāll die alone. Why do I even think of such a terrible thing? Sumio is not going anywhereā¦ Or is he? So thatās our beginning! And we can run, from the backdrop of these gears and scalpels. At every hour goes the tick-tock bang of monitors as they started us down when we met in the emergency room, and in our beds, I could hear you breathe with help from the cold machinesā¦
People used to tell me āYouāre young, and strong and handsome as well. I donāt understand why you would try to hurt yourself.ā. Like anyone asked about their opinions. My scars are beautiful, canāt they see?! Sumio kisses them, and it makes them even more special. Sumio also has scars on him, and boy do they make me horny! Unlike me, he doesnāt cut. He uses himself as a portable cigarette holder. He also offered me to extinguish my cigarettes on him, but a force in me stops me.
He has an issue with fire. Once, in the middle of the summer, he offered that we light a fire in the fireplace. Also, in his one-bedroom apartment, he has about a thousand candles, the wax melted, messing up the carpet and the furniture. But it makes his house smell nice and romantic. It reminds me of a starry night. But he disagrees. Itās as if he hates them, but canāt live without them either. He asked me āNight time sky? Can you take this spike? Will it wash away this jet black feeling?ā.
Sometimes he talks so poetically. Especially when heās drunk. Oh how he loves whiskey! And the things he whispers in my ear once he had drunken a bottle or two! He told me āIāll never let them hurt you, I promise.ā. When I asked him who was going to hurt me, he just kept on saying over and over again āCan you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart?...ā. Then he took the bottle of whisky and spilled it all over him. I just stayed there, watching, until I saw he was trying to light a match. He was so drunk, he even failed to do that, and thank god he did, or this would end up being worse than just a juicy scar. I took him to the bathroom, and gave him a bath. I took away his matches just in caseā¦
Once we were freed from the hospital that weāve spent three weeks in, I had nowhere to go. My parents had come for a ādecentā visit in the hospital, saying I was 16 and already making my own decisions such as ending my life. I was on my own. I did not object, because I already had had an argument with them, saying that I wanted to have my own apartment room. They were over protective, but now that they saw that they werenāt capable of protecting me, they were letting go. Forever.
Sumio had an apartment. I didnāt dare ask him whether I could stay with him or not, so it was him who offered for me to stay. He gave me no deadline to move out. So I stayed there, until we were paying the rent together.
At the time I was 16, and he was 22. We had a six year age difference, but he looked oh so younger! People would refer to him as āyour little friendā. He had a face like angels. We have an inside joke. To wake him up I whisper in his ear āStolen from my eyes, hello angel.ā He whispers back āTell me where are you. Tell me where we go from here.ā And together āThis broken city sky.ā. Thatās usually about the time when we start to make-out in bed. His face is soft against mine. And by the time we split apart, his face is red. We kiss hard. Thatās how we start the day. Itās been going on like this for 9 months now. We truly love each otherā¦
My parents called. First time in 9 whole months. And they want me back. Iāve been waiting for this day to come. So I replied on autopilot āWell Iāll choose the life Iāve taken, never mind the friends Iām making.ā And without waiting for a reply I hung up. Once I hung up, I felt dizzy. Like I was about to puke. I saw the walls getting closer, and I think Iāll blow my brains against the ceiling. I need a razor or a knife. And fast.
When Sumio found me, I had dirtied his rug with blood. These hands, stained red are so guilty. But he was calm, as always. He sat me literally on his lap. I put my head against his shoulder. He cleaned my cut, which wasnāt too deep, but deep enough. Then he wrapped it with bandages he kept in the pantry. Once he was done, we just stayed like that. Quiet. Peaceful. It was him who broke the silence after an hour āOh how wrong we were to think immortality meant never dying.ā I buried my face in his shirt, trying to understand what he couldāve meant. But sometimes understanding may not be always necessary, because I know that whatever he says, he says it with love and care. And we fell asleep, just like that.
When I woke up, Sumio was gone. He probably had a course. He has been studying museum management, and he takes school seriously. On the other hand, I go to the local highschool, only the days I feel like it. In a year itās my turn to start college. Iāve got no idea on what Iāll do for a living. Iām satisfied with my part-time-job in 7eleven. It feels like I can retire as being a cashier. Though, it feels unfair. Sumio goes to college and has an actual job. He works in a gallery three times a week. Hah! I guess heās the man in our relationship where as Iām the no-good housewife. Though, as I mentioned before, heās the one with the pretty face. Oh how his lips go red once I touch him! How gentle he is when pulling on my hair while making out! And when we make out, thatās a different story. His tongue falls on your tongue like pixie dust, just think happy thoughtsā¦
Sumio, Sumio, Sumioā¦ All I can think of is Sumio. I wish he never had to go anywhere. Late dawns and early sunsets. I wish the nights were longer. Donāt I just love the nights! The bed, warm sheets. His naked thigh against mine. Am I being disgusting? Pervert like? But itās the truth. Itās not just his words and tenderness I love in him. Isnāt it obvious? I can talk about his soft skin forever.
I canāt understand how people find gay people gross. Not that we are gay! We have no gender. I think itās the stupidest thing to limit your soulmate options with gender borders. Thatās what we areā¦soulmatesā¦
We were walking down the street when this biker dude stuck his foot out to trip me āmaking fun of us for being in love-. Donāt be fooled by his innocent face. Sumio broke the biker dudes nose. And after seeing what we saw, can we still reclaim our innocence?
Despite his calm characteristic, when angry heās such a heart breaker and so fierce. As ice cold hands rip into your heart. Thatās if youāve still got one thatās left, inside that cave you call a chestā¦ Oh, it would be the worldās end if we were ever to break up! Or in the minimum have a fightā¦ Thatās right! Not once have we had a fight! Though we were close to have oneā¦ No shouts. No, Sumio doesnāt shout. He gives you the silent treatment. And itās worse. Itās as if heās dead when heās upset. Heās a soul. But does anyone notice, thereās a corpse in this bed? And it doesnāt matter whether if you are right or if youāre wrong. No matter what, youāll be the first to say Iām sorry.
Our fighting topic was just so stupid. I wanted to drop out of school. Whatās the need to go to schoolā¦when you literally donāt go anyways most of the time? He just shrugged and didnāt say a word. As I said, this wasnāt an actual argument. I took his silent treatment for a week. He would come home a bit late, going to bed just a bit too early. We were on odd sides of the bed. Tense it was, and painful too. As days fade, and nights grow, and we go cold. I almost went insane. Let me break this awkward silenceā¦ Now. Now. Now. So I did.
āSumio?ā
āHm?ā
āIām sorry. It was stupid of me to even think of quitting schoolā¦ā
āGuinevere?ā
āYes?ā
āI love you.ā
āStolen
