~<em>Splinter and John, returning to the others that are standing with Wednesday</em>~<br/><br/>John only chuckled as he heard Saki's remark. He already knew that. So he easily shrugged it off. He could be an evil bastard and did enjoy it from time to time. Especially in situations like these when he had the upper hand. He was no fool. He had seen how that man that had been standing by the door for a while had been seeming to observe Splinter and Saki, just like he had. His suspicions confirmed as the man went to grab onto Saki's shoulder.<br/><br/>He could push the limits here and there was nothing this bratty kid could do about it. Oh this situation was to good not to take advantage off.<br/>Splinter felt the tips off Saki's fingers brush against his but he himself made no attempt to grab on to him, even though he wanted to. Nor did he look at him again, simply following behind John as he was told. As it had been said before, he really wasn't the one who liked to cause troubles. He didn't want Saki to be in more trouble then he had already gotten him into. Splinter stood quietly behind John as he began to strike a conversation back up, now turning among the crowd to see if there was someone who he hadn't greeted yet.<br/><br/>John turned around, putting one arm around Splinter's shoulders turning him around as well so that they were both facing the front door and the table where he and Saki had been sitting earlier. To anyone who didn't know of the situation it would simply look as if John was being protective of his shy friend. but Splinter knew better. Though the grip looked lightly it was tight enough to hold him still in that direction, and whatever would happen he would be forced to watch it, seeing it all from the corner of his eyes even if he would look away.<br/><br/>He was worried as he saw Saki disappearing outside, D quickly following. but they weren't gone for long. Splinter breathing out slightly as the both of them returned inside. Though twitching as D grabbed Saki's wrist and pulled him to his knees. He wanted to run over to Saki but John held him in a tight grip around the shoulders. And when he glanced up at him he could see John looking back at him with an evil smirk playing over his lips. He had calculated this, predicted that this would happen or at least something like it. And for that Splinter hated him at the moment, his shoulders shaking as he tried to remain in control over his emotions.<br/><br/>Splinter felt it as if his heart was breaking as he saw D roughly kiss Saki, holding on to him by his hair. Though it didn't look as Saki would be that willing to give in and as soon as they broke the kiss D shoved Saki away. Saki getting up and walking away to sit alone at the table the two of them had shared before. John chuckling and talking to the people around them as if nothing strange was going on at all.<br/><br/>Splinter wanted to walk up to Saki, embrace him and kiss him. Telling him that they would work it all out somehow, but he couldn't even get away from John's grip. Squirming slightly, but winching as John's hand pressed even more against his shoulder. Splinter who bruised easily could already feel a bruise begin to form on his shoulder.
