Where on Earth do I begin?
My name is Itō Arashi, soon to be Yoshida Arashi. That sounded too formal… I was born on the 14th of February, Valentine’s Day, 17 years ago. I’m a brunette and brown eyed. I stand at 6’2 and weigh in at 136lbs. Where I live is at an old beach side town. I live with my fiancé and his family. I call their granny flat home, when I’m not boarding at school or staying with mum. 6 years ago I was diagnosed with insomnia. Since I was in diapers I have had two best friends, Kiryu Fuyu and Hashiba Miyuki. My dear sister and also best friend is Itō Rin who was born on the 15th of March, 18 years ago. My brother who I hate to love is Itō Kyoshoku who was born on the 21st of July, 20 years ago. And my other dear sister Itō Ryuusei was born on the 4th of June, 22 years ago. Itō Tsukiko passed away 3 days after he was born on the 19th of December, 15 years ago. My mother, Itō Ai, was a kind lady at heart but she always would have her way. My father, Itō Kyoshoku, was a stern man, but quite easily satisfied by mum’s tasteful meals. Our parents had been together since high school, until 6 years ago when they got divorced. Mum had had an affair. It didn’t last long, only a night. She had just a little bit too much to drink and made the wrong decision. The only evidence of the affair was the pregnancy. Although in her mind, I was the silver lining of the affair. Being the person she was she kept the child, but also being the person she was, she didn’t tell Dad all the details. She actually wasn’t sure who was the father, until Valentine’s Day 17 years ago when I opened my eyes for the first time. The only things Mum can remember about my real Dad is that he had my eyes, tanned skin and a strong accent, also he was visiting our town from Sydney. Dad found out about the affair when I was 12. That’s when I had hit puberty; I had completely no characteristics that neither Dad nor Kyo had. One day I’d like to meet my real dad, but not now.
Also at the time of the divorce, I had a beautiful girlfriend named Fujioka Mika. We had been together since I started attending school. For I had grown up on a farm and was home schooled, I didn’t start school until grade 5. Anyway, I could have sworn Mika was the one. But I was wrong, extremely wrong. A bit after the divorce, when I needed her the most, I had found her on our hill kissing another boy. She told me that I had never meant anything to her and I had found out she had cheated on me continuously over the time we were together. After that I had gotten depression and attempted suicide. After a year of grieving and pointless counseling, I thought I should finally turn my life around. And by that I meant go wild. I took drugs, smoked, drank, self harmed and did things no 13 year old should; anything to take the pain away that I was feeling. I was a fairly good looking kid though. I was one of “those guys“the bad boys. I had cheated on any girl who’d go out with me then dumped them after one week. Just for my own amusement. This lasted until I was 15, on the 15th of May. One of the nights when I was raging at age 14, I met a boy named Utsunomiya Shun. We were at a gathering, drinking, smoking and playing truth or dare. But this was no ordinary truth or dare, it had no rules. If we were dared to run down the street naked, we’d have to do it. Half way through my 4th can of Bundy he got dared to kiss me. Shun was an openly bisexual guy and I had been bitten by the curiosity bug, mainly because of my addiction of breaking people’s hearts. So we went through with the dare. He was the first guy I kissed. The kiss caused an epiphany. It was hot and tasted strongly of cigarettes and beer, but his cold tongue ring made it ecstatic. That’s when I started exploring the closet, not looking for Narnia but the way out. So soon I was openly bisexual guy like Shun. I've never engaged with Shun since that night, but I have seen him around. Now that I was bisexual, I didn’t only break girls’ hearts, but I broke guys and turned straight guys bisexual or even gay. My hobbies included making girls drop their panties and lifting their shirts, dating multiple people at one time and making boys get on their knees and beg for more. I was such a whore. That went on for a while, and then I met Yoshida Kasumi.
Oh and when I met Kasumi, it sparked. Not like a small spark, but a big one, big enough to cause a fire. It was a nice day out and I was flirting with my friend Hino Haruhi. I had no intention of breaking her heart though, only making her chase. That’s when Haruhi invited some friends to come to the cinema with us. One of those friends was Kasumi. I didn’t know anything about Kasumi, only that he was a new edition to our town. He came from the city which was 200k’s east. Soon I had found out he was living with his best friend Yagomi Kumiko who‘s parents adopted Kasumi after the accident. It turned out that Kasumi and I were very much alike. But we had no clue about this. On the day we went to the cinema, Kasumi was contemplating whether he was gay or bisexual. Since that day, he had told me I was the one who helped him with his decision. When we met, we both had the same thing in mind. “He will be my next boy toy” and with that in mind, we got talking and flirting. Within days, I began to think “actually he won’t be my boy toy, I’ll give love a try again” Then a week later, we kissed. That kiss, was the beginning of my savoir. A lot of things have changed since then, like I don’t cut anymore, we both don’t do drugs or smoke and I no longer have a drinking problem. I have stopped the cheating game, never touched another soul and that childish crush I had on him turned into love. We have been together ever since that kiss 2 years ago.
