Circus
Chapter
1
Suzaku
stretched, rubbing his tired eyes, before closing up his homework and switching
the desk lamp off. The soldier walked to the window and leaned against it,
staring out into the night.
With the glow created from
the city’s artificial light, he could easily see most of the school grounds
from his vantage point, so it was no wonder that he spotted the dark figure
making their way not so stealthily from the school to the gates. Narrowing his
eyes, Suzaku thought he recognised the figure, but
decided to check it out anyway.
Running silently through the
halls, Suzaku was able to make good time in getting to
the front doors, and spotted the figure just reaching the gate to the city.
Once outside, he looked in the direction that the mystery person appeared from
and frowned. Only three people lived in that direction; one of them was in a
wheelchair and one had the ability to be as stealthy as him. That only left one
culprit, Lelouch Lamperouge,
otherwise known as Lelouch vi
Britannia.
At this, Suzaku
hurried to the gates, not at all worried that Lelouch
would catch him following, and now intensely curious as to what the former
prince could possibly be up to this late at night. His first thought was to do
with Zero and the terrorist group known as the Black Knights, but he dismissed
it automatically; he knew Lelouch too well for it to
be that, even though he knew the other teen hated Britannia after what happened
to his mother and sister.
Peeking his head around a
corner, Suzaku saw the now unmistakable figure of Lelouch crossing the road ahead of him, heading towards
downtown; an area full of nightlife as well as danger. Even though Lelouch
was wearing a long black hooded coat, Suzaku could
easily tell it was him, now he was closer. After the many hours the soldier had
studied the former prince without the other knowing, he knew the other almost
as well as he did himself.
When he had seen Lelouch again in that truck, after all those years, a great
rush of sensation had filled him up. It had happened again when they were
reunited once more in Ashford Academy, and it didn’t take long for Suzaku to realise he was in love with Lelouch,
and that he always had been in love with the former prince. The other teen was
beautiful to him, inside and out. With his genius analytical mind and
attractive features, Lelouch was a
dream come true, even with his lack in stamina and physical strength.
Suzaku
sighed as he jogged lightly after Lelouch. That was
part of the problem; Lelouch was so amazing, that he
could have his pick of pretty much anyone he wanted – why would he want Suzaku? An Eleven who had killed
his own father, when he could have someone like Shirley Fenette;
the pretty bubbly girl already had a huge crush on Lelouch,
as well as many other girls at Ashford Academy, and some of the boys too.
They were starting to enter
a dubious area, so Suzaku made sure he had all of his
attention on Lelouch; who was not that far ahead of
him, but seemed to have no worries at all about being in such an area, as if he
was familiar with it.
Suzaku’s
curiosity increased – where was the other teen going? And how often did he go
there if he was this comfortable with the area?
Loud music could be heard
every so often from up ahead and a large warehouse building came into view as Suzaku turned the corner. A long queue snaked its way from
a heavy metal door, which was the origin of the music, guarded by a large bald
man wearing sunglasses. Suzaku blinked as he watched Lelouch completely ignore the queue and walk straight to
the door, blinking again when he saw the big guy nod and open the door as soon
as he had seen the other teen. Lelouch stopped
slightly and said something to what Suzaku now
thought of as the bouncer, who nodded again and looked over Lelouch’s
shoulder, straight at him.
Suzaku
fidgeted, unsure now he knew that Lelouch had noticed
him following him, but as he saw the other go inside and the bouncer gesture
towards him, he moved forward, extremely glad that he had changed into his
casual clothes earlier. He would have looked really out of place in either his
school or soldier uniform.
When he reached the door the
bouncer opened it as he did for Lelouch, inciting
quite a few groans and complaints from the queue, but this time he leaned
forward and said to Suzaku:
“You’re in for a right
treat.”
“What do you mean?” Suzaku asked, taken aback slightly.
“You’ll see,” the man
smirked. “Head on in.” He gave the shocked soldier a light push and Suzaku moved the rest of the way into the club, the music and
atmosphere enveloping him.
A female member of staff
sidled up to him as soon as he was inside, taking his
jacket and handing him a ticket stub, before disappearing into the crowd with
the long blue trenchcoat. The beat sounding in his
ears had started moving through his whole body and at first he couldn’t
distinguish the chant a lot of the patrons had started up. Suzaku
shook his head, hoping to clear it, but as soon as he did he felt as if he
needed to try it again – that it hadn’t worked the first time. The crowd was
chanting ‘Lulu!’
Looking around rapidly, Suzaku found Lelouch heading to
the DJ booth and was stunned into paralysis; the former prince was wearing low
slung tight leather trousers and a leather tank top just as tight that only
reached to his midriff. A shoulder bumping into him jolted Suzaku
back to himself and he realised he had been drooling.
Quickly wiping the saliva
away with his hand, he made his way to the bar as Lelouch
made his way to the centre of the dancefloor, the
crowd parting before him, whereas Suzaku had to force
his way through the packed bodies.
The soldier was quite glad
of his strength at that moment as many were trying to make it to the bar; it
had the best view of the dancefloor in the whole club
except for the second floor, which was exclusively for the owner and VIP
guests.
Suzaku marvelled
at the sight before him; Lelouch was picking people
from the crowd, obviously people he knew as he greeted them with smiles, and
forcing the rest to leave the dancefloor. Most of the
dancers were happy to move aside for the teen, but some; who were apparently
newcomers, often made a fuss that got them glares and
hostility from most of the crowd, causing them to move aside anyway.
Finally, Lelouch
seemed to be satisfied and stood in the centre of the dancefloor,
the dancers he had handpicked surrounding him and moving into position as if
they already knew the plan. Suzaku scanned the room
quickly and saw that even the bouncer had come into see and had closed the door
behind him – no one else was coming in while the show was on. Their eyes met
and the large man smirked knowingly at him before looking back to Lelouch. Suzaku followed his
example, suddenly noticing that it had gone quiet except for the chant of ‘Lulu!’
that was still echoing in the area, but even that vanished as Suzaku watched Lelouch lift a
hand into the air, a spotlight falling on him.
A beat filled the air, and
the dancers around Lelouch started to move, but Suzaku’s eyes were fixed on Lelouch,
who only moved as the lyrics started flowing.
There’s only two types of people in the world
The
ones that entertain, and the ones that observe
Well
baby I’m a put-on-a-show kinda girl
Don’t
like the backseat, gotta be first (oh, oh)
Lelouch’s violet
eyes had shot up during the second line and locked onto his own emerald eyes. Suzaku could hear the lyrics clearly and they sunk into him
as if Lelouch was speaking them to him instead.
I’m
like the ringleader
I
call the shots (call the shots)
I’m
like a firecracker
I
make it hot (make it hot)
When
I put on a show
The other dancers started to
move in closer to Lelouch as the beat slowed down and
the moves became more sensual. Suzaku was finding it
hard to breathe as Lelouch stared at him while moving
against two of the other dancers, one male and the other female.
I
feel the adrenaline moving through my veins (hah, hah, hah)
Spotlight
on me and I’m ready to break (hah, hah, hah)
I’m
like a performer, the dancefloor is my stage (hah,
hah, hah)
Better
be ready, hope that ya feel the same (hah, hah, hah)
Lelouch was
once again alone in the centre as the rhythm increased. Every move he made
caused the dancers around him to react as if he was directing them, making Suzaku wonder if it was all rehearsed, although he knew it
couldn’t be; they were just all so in tune with other that they knew what to do
anyway.
All
the eyes on me in the centre of the ring
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
When
I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
Lelouch
lifted a hand towards him, but he was too frozen to move, something that the
former prince seemed to realise as he lips turned up in amusement.
Don’t
stand there watching me, follow me
Show
me what you can do
Everybody
let go, we can make a dancefloor
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ho,
ho, ho)
The amused smile turned into
a smirk as the next set of lyrics flowed. Suzaku
scowled before his breath caught in his throat seeing a change in Lelouch’s eyes. His own eyes widened as the lyrics filtered
into his brain.
There’s only two types of guys out there,
Ones
that can hang with me, and ones thare
scared
So
baby I hope that you came prepared
I
run a tight ship, so beware
I’m
like a ring leader, I call the shots.
I’m
like a firecracker,
I
make it hot when I put on a show
Suzaku
slowly moved forward, other dancers from the crowd were moving onto the edge of
the dancefloor as well, making it harder to move, but
the soldier never lost eye contact with Lelouch.
I
feel the adrenaline moving through my veins (hah, hah, hah)
Spotlight
on me and I’m ready to break (hah, hah, hah)
I’m
like a performer, the dancefloor is my stage (hah,
hah, hah)
Better
be ready, hope that ya feel the same (hah, hah, hah)
All
the eyes on me in the centre of the ring
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
When
I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
Don’t
stand there watching me, follow me
Show
me what you can do
Everybody
let go, we can make a dancefloor
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ho,
ho, ho)
All too soon Suzaku found himself within arms
reach of the former prince and was suddenly pulled forward into the
leather-clad body of Lelouch. He stared into eyes
that he now saw were lined with thick black kohl, and as he balanced himself he
noticed the thick black collar fastened around the teen’s thin neck, the black
leather contrasting beautifully with Lelouch’s fair
skin.
“Dance with me, Suzaku…” Lelouch hissed in his
ear, before moving backwards and into a series of graceful movements as he let
himself be absorbed into the rhythm of the music.
Let’s
go… (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
Let
me see what you can do… (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
I’m
running this.
Yeah,
like what…?
Suzaku
felt completely out of his element, but he knew he had to try, Lelouch was asking him after all.
I
feel the adrenaline moving through my veins (hah, hah, hah)
Spotlight
on me and I’m ready to break (hah, hah, hah)
I’m
like a performer, the dancefloor is my stage (hah,
hah, hah)
Better
be ready, hope that ya feel the same (hah, hah, hah)
He must have either been
quite good or completely useless as Lelouch moved closer
and started to move against him, forcing Suzaku to
follow his lead. A fragile wrist encased in a leather cuff slid against his
waist, as the fingers of a delicate hand bedecked with rubber and plastic
bangles tangled themselves into the hair at the base of his neck.
All
the eyes on me in the centre of the ring
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
When
I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip
Just
like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)
Don’t

Just

ho, ho)
As the beat dissipated and
the crowd erupted into applause and more chants of Lulu; Suzaku
stared down into hazy violet orbs as he tried to catch his breath – a single
dance with Lelouch had affected more than a whole day
of training. Lelouch smiled.
“Come on, we need to talk.” Suzaku nodded dumbly as Lelouch
led him through the crowd, smiling and greeting many of the people they walked
past, as well as signalling to the bartender, who nodded back.
Suzaku
soon found himself sitting on a comfortable sofa in the VIP area, as Lelouch talked to the owner of the club. He was startled as
two drinks were put down on the table in front of him. The waitress smiled sympathetically
in understanding, before moving away to a small group of people nearby. Suzaku watched her go so he didn’t notice as Lelouch sat down next to him.
“So…” Lelouch
began, and Suzaku jumped, turning to face him with
wide eyes. The other teen chuckled slightly. “You followed me.” Lelouch stated; the amused smile from earlier firmly back
in place. Suzaku blushed and looked away.
“I didn’t know it was you at
first…” he muttered. “I-I…I saw you go across the grounds from my window, but I
didn’t know it was you until I was already outside.” Suzaku
chanced a look at Lelouch, and saw him looking back
at him with a soft smile on his face.
“It’s
fine, Suzaku. I knew you would probably follow me
here one day. You and that insatiable curiosity of yours wouldn’t have been
able to leave it alone as soon as you knew it was me sneaking out.” Suzaku’s blush darkened slightly.“How
did you know I was following you today?” Suzaku asked,
wondering how he could have been spotted so easily by a civilian like Lelouch.
“You weren’t being as
stealthy as you think you were.” He chided. “You were so deeply absorbed in
your thoughts at one point that you kicked a rock into a trash can, it made quite
a lot of noise.” Suzaku ducked his head as a deep
blush coated his cheeks again. “That, and the feeling I had.”
“Feeling?” Suzaku’s curiosity was getting the better of him again.
“Yes, the feeling I get
whenever you watch me.” Lelouch’s hand reached out and
finally landed on a tanned cheek, as Suzaku stared at
his best friend in fear and slight hope.
“Lelouch…”
A finger was placed on his lips, stopping him from speaking. Lelouch’s eyes stared into his own, searching for
something, before Lelouch smiled and, leaning forward,
replaced his finger with his lips in a chaste kiss.
“I love you, Suzaku.” Lelouch whispered
against his lips. Shocked, Suzaku did the first thing
he could think of and pressed his own lips onto the former prince’s. Their lips
moved together perfectly in a passionate but still chaste kiss, before Lelouch pulled back for breath. “And that means…” he
laughed breathlessly.
“It means that I love you Lelouch, I’ve always loved you.” Lelouch
flung his arms around Suzaku, who was surprised by
the action but still returned the embrace.
The two broke apart
blushing, something which Suzaku thought was adorable
on Lelouch as he rarely saw it, as the sound of
clapping sounded nearby.
“Good for you, Lulu.” A deep
voice said from nearby, and they both turned to see the owner of the club
staring at them, with a slight smile on his face. The owner was a handsome man
in his thirties, with messy brown hair down to his shoulders and intense cobalt
blue eyes, softened by a few laugh lines. He was well built and had obviously
had some form of military training during his lifetime.
“Thankyou,
Takeshi.” Lelouch smiled brilliantly, making both Suzaku and ‘Takeshi’ grin at the sight of it.
“Takeshi?” Suzaku questioned.
“Yes, that’s the name I go
by here. We support anonymity in this club, so anyone and everyone are free to
be whoever they want or whoever they truly are.” Takeshi smiled. “And you are?”
“Um…” he started, but he could not think of a single thing.
“Kishi.” Lelouch
stated, and they both turned to him. Suzaku saw that
there would be no arguing with him so he just shrugged in acceptance. Takeshi
laughed as Lelouch picked his glass of water up from
the table and sipped at it smugly.
“Well,” Takeshi said,
standing up. “I have business to get to so I’ll leave you two to it. Enjoy
yourselves boys.”
“Goodnight Takeshi.” Lelouch called after the retreating figure, before leaning
into Suzaku and humming contentedly. “We should go
back soon.” He mumbled, rotating the glass in his hand.
“Yeah.” Suzaku shifted so they were both more comfortable and
rested his head on top of Lelouch’s. He was loving being
able to cuddle with Lelouch, not that Lelouch would probably ever admit to cuddling after this. “So,
how did you find this place?”
“I’d gone for a walk, and it
started raining really hard so I ran (he glared at Suzaku
when he raised an eyebrow in disbelief), yes I ran, to the nearest shelter I
could find. I was huddled underneath an awning for ages, waiting for the rain
to lessen, but Takeshi drove past first...”
“You got in a car with a
complete stranger?” Suzaku asked incredulously.
“Of course not, he just gave
me directions to this club as somewhere I could dry off and wait out the rain.
I just thought he had seen it as he had driven past it before, I didn’t know he
owned it. So when I was let in the door by Ru, that’s
the bouncer, even though they hadn’t opened yet, I was surprised to see Takeshi
already in here. I was given a spare uniform so I could change out of my wet
clothes, and then Takeshi and I talked while I warmed up and watched the staff
set up for the night. I wanted to help out so I did and I ended up with a part
time job here doing a little bit of everything a couple of evenings a week.
Then, when I came once just for fun, and I started dancing… it was amazing,
like I was part of the music. Afterwards, Takeshi told me that I had people
mesmerised, and that if my dancing gets those results everytime
he should pay me to dance here, make it a show. I thought he was joking at the time,
but it kept happening, everything else stopped when I was dancing, although I
never noticed.” Lelouch took a sip from the glass
again. “I stopped coming for a while, but I missed it, so I now come back every
so often, which usually ends up similar to tonight. I dance a couple of songs
and then I come up here and watch.” The empty glass was placed on the table and
Lelouch closed his eyes, before leaning back into his
comfy Suzaku pillow.
“I noticed, earlier, that
the dancers around you seemed to know how to react to you. Do you rehearse or
anything?” Suzaku questioned.
“Hm,
no… I pick a new song everytime, sometimes one I’ve
never even heard all the way through, like tonight. That’s just what happens
when I dance; it seems to affect everyone around me.” He wriggled before settling,
and Suzaku felt his breathing start to deepen.
“Hey, no, Lelouch, don’t go to sleep on me… we’ve got to get back.” Suzaku chuckled at Lelouch’s
sleepy pout.
“But you’re comfy.” Lelouch whined.
“Sorry,” Suzaku
stated, unrepentant, as he pulled Lelouch to his
feet. “Come on, let’s go.” He started pulling the other teen along before stopping
suddenly, Lelouch colliding lightly with his back.
“What’s wrong, Suzaku?” Lelouch yawned.
“Lelouch,”
Suzaku began, his voice and face completely serious. “Where’s
the cloakroom?” Lelouch burst into laughter, before
leading the way himself, giggles escaping every now and then as Suzaku followed with a pout.
