CHAPTER 21

Keisuke tried to contain his euphoria as he drove toward his home. 'I'm glad I confronted Takumi about being in love with him this morning. I was expecting rejection, and hatred because he's not very easy for me to read. Our confrontation didn't turn out as I expected. I really managed to convince Takumi to let me become his boyfriend. I even managed to get several kisses from him before I left Akina this morning. I can't wait to call him this evening. I really hope he's not too tired after work because I really want more time to be with him.'

Keisuke had received permission to prove to Takumi that they belonged together. Plots to make himself essential to the younger man's life flitted through his thoughts. Ways to seduce his shy, and obviously innocent new beau arose half formed as the blond flew through the early morning traffic. Those ideas added to the blond's evolving plans and schemes to capture Takumi's heart, and keep it. Keisuke smiled as his car flashed past clusters of slower early morning traffic.

As the blond walked into his home twenty minutes later, he kicked off his shoes and reflected about how well the morning had gone. He leaned against his front door as every guileless, faltering phrase, embarrassed question, and pained expression that Takumi had used spun through his mind.

'It was so obvious that Takumi was afraid that he'd break my heart even though he wanted to clear up his confusion about same gender romances. Gay romance is way outside of his experience. I'm glad I took Tohji's advice to heart so I could recognize that he was trying to make sense of my being in love with him. Takumi was trying so hard to understand how I feel about him, . . . based upon his own life, and wondered if my emotions were different from his own. Man, I almost can't believe that Takumi's so innocent. I'm glad I could calm some of his fears about dating me though.'

'Takumi's indecision, and learned social expectations became pretty noticeable while we were talking. My explanations about naze I'm attracted to him almost failed to get through to him. It seems Takumi really has zero understanding of his genuine appeal and good qualities. I'm going to have to make him understand that he's truly worth loving.

'My emotional response to Takumi's earnest struggle to prevent any mis-understandings, or heartbreak goaded me into some pretty rash actions. I really could have blown everything when I kissed him before I even realized I was. I was so desperate to make Takumi understand how I felt that I didn't notice my impulsiveness in time. Words failed to influence Takumi, and I was getting desperate before I realized it. That kiss was a thoughtless, impulsive, and very reckless gamble that could have destroyed any chance I had of coaxing Takumi into accepting me at all. Arigato Kami sama that he didn't flip out. In the end that's how I won him over, . . . I think.'

'I was so certain I had lost Takumi because he took so long to get over his shock. That moment will remain one of the most painful memories of my life. I'll never forget having turned my back to the hachi roku while silently cursing myself for screwing up so badly. Hearing Takumi's hoarse, strained voice was so unexpected. Because of my risky gamble, I conveyed my emotional attachment in a way that words can't express. Putting my heart and soul on the line just to show how important Takumi is to me was the only way to reach him.'

'Although his reaction is only a minor step toward meeting me halfway, Takumi's willingness to try gives me a lot of hope. I know he had a positive reaction to that first kiss or he never would have hugged me. I'll make him love me if I can find his weak points to push. That hug is proof that my shy boyfriend will come around if I can prevent myself from making any blunders Takumi can't handle yet.

'He has acknowledged, and on some level accepted that my love is sincere. Takumi may not have said the words that sealed our status as a couple when I tugged him around to face me, but I knew he would agree when I wrapped an arm around him. Telling him that Aniki had arranged that disastrous scene with Akimoto to find out if he was homophobic or not made him mad though.

When Takumi said he thinks I'm only forceful about things I truly desire instead of spoiled, I couldn't help myself. I just had to kiss him again. Once I felt his hesitant answer, I forgot all about needing to put on the brakes. The self-conscious way Takumi responded gives me the impression that my sexy little man hasn't got much experience in the romance department. The innocent way he responded makes me think I'm going to really enjoy teaching Takumi all kinds of delightful things.'

'I even managed to wake his libido up and felt how he was starting to respond when I pulled Takumi's hips flush against mine. When Takumi didn't jerk away from my obvious hard on, I had proof that he'll even say hai to sex once I figure out how to awaken his passion. I'm going to fan that fire into life at every opportunity so I can get past his shyness, and concerns. He's so close to being mine outside of my damned nonstop wet dreams.'

Anticipation and frustration flashed through his heart as Keisuke considered how much delight he would get in showing Takumi his love and helping him to uncover the things that aroused his younger partner in the future.

'Our last kiss in the hachi roku was so damned hot. I thought I'd give him a quick chaste kiss as I was getting out of his car. Takumi really responded enough to blow my mind. He sent my desire to hold him into overdrive when he invited me to explore his mouth a second time. Our goodbye took a lot more time than I expected because Takumi is a very quick study when it comes to kissing. I've already figured out that my wet dreams have got nothing on the reality of kissing Takumi. I need to stop thinking about how delicious and wicked his tongue can be or I'm not going to be able to move without being in pain soon.'

'Wish I had been given a little more time to investigate that sensuality I sensed in Takumi this morning. I really hate Takumi's full time job for forcing us apart just when things were starting to get good. I might have had the chance to help him discover a few more things about his passionate side if I'd had the time to keep him involved in that unexpected little make out session.'

'Damn it, I'm so horny I can't stand it. Takumi's quite talented at turning me into a drooling mess. I can't help but wonder how talented he'll be once we get beyond making out. Stop thinking about it, baka. There's no way I'm going to calm down if I don't shift to a different topic in my head.'

Keisuke forced himself away from the door and headed into the hallway so he could reach his bedroom. Images and sensations replayed of every kiss they had shared with every step he took. Even the memory of the scarlet flush of Takumi's embarrassed reactions to what he had told his shy boyfriend about his attraction was fast becoming an unstoppable aphrodisiac. Keisuke's thoughts goaded his body and imagination into longing for his new boyfriend's presence as he tried to drum up the will power to stop thinking about his inexperienced new lover's reactions that morning.

Close to the top of the staircase Keisuke was stopped short as Ryosuke started down the steps covering a yawn with his hand. From the tired, drawn expression on his older brother's face, Keisuke knew Ryosuke had not slept at all that night.

"Pulled another all nighter to finish a paper that's due?" He greeted his exhausted brother with a big smile.

"Of course. Naze are you so cheerful this morning, Keisuke? I thought you were still pissed about my meddling. You've been downright vicious to minasan for the last two days." Ryosuke's voice held a slightly irritable note as he stepped down onto the next tread and came abreast of his position.

"I managed to hunt down Takumi this morning, and we talked things out. Knowing he doesn't hate me has done wonders for my temper. He's agreed to give me a chance to prove we belong together, Aniki."

Ryosuke stopped next to him on the stairway with his mouth hanging open before he recovered his composure. "I'm sure it did. Are you saying that Fujiwara agreed to date you without any fuss over last weekend?"

"He was upset, but I told him the truth about everything, Aniki. Takumi decided I'm worth the risks he'll have to deal with after I told him how I really feel about him. He agreed because he knows I'm not trying to play some twisted game with his emotions. Fujiwara admitted that his main reservations with giving me a chance are due to not knowing nani he should expect because we're both men." Keisuke frowned as he admitted the last part of his early morning confession to the younger man.

"That's a normal reaction for a dominantly straight man to this kind of situation, Keisuke. Fujiwara isn't very bisexual, or self confident. Try not to overwhelm him in case he's only trying to avoid creating an uncomfortable conflict with you. You'll have to explain a lot of the things that he should expect over the next few weeks to ease his mind, and insure he didn't agree to seeing you for the wrong reasons, little brother."

"Slow down, Aniki. I'm not going to back Takumi into any corners. I know he didn't agree to dating me to get out of a fight with me because of everything he said this morning. Takumi admitted that he'll feel strange trying to date me, but he's willing to try and make things work. He also said he's willing to try something so outside his comfort zone because he thinks I'll be worth the risks if things do actually work out. He didn't give me any kind of guarantee that he can handle my being in love with him either. Those aren't things that someone says to get out of confrontations, Aniki."

"So long as you're honest with him, I can see Fujiwara making an effort to get used to the idea of dating you. He's always seemed to be fair and open minded to me. You have a positive influence on him which would make it harder for him to say iie to dating you. Fujiwara may still be shocked by everything that has happened, and not certain of anything else to do about this, Keisuke. You need to keep that in mind so you can curb your manipulation habits, little brother. I know you tend to manipulate people without even realizing you have. I don't want to see this relationship blow up in your face."

"I told Takumi a little bit about nani to expect in dating me to help him calm some of his fears this morning, but I didn't try to manipulate him into saying hai to dating me, Aniki. Takumi made the choice once he understood that I do love him for himself. He didn't know that straight relationships are identical to same gender in most respects. That was the point he was having the hardest time understanding about me. The main differences between the two types of romances can get discussed later on. I'm not going to do anything that will blow up in my face if I can prevent it."

Ryosuke nodded with a thoughtful expression. "That's seems fair enough. I doubt Fujiwara's ready to deal with finding out about the deeper levels of intimacy between two men at this point in your relationship in any case."

"iie kidding, Aniki. I'm not interested in casual sex because I do want this relationship to last. So I'm not going to overwhelm Takumi. When he gets to a point that he wants to know more, I'll tell him the truth. That's the best idea for now. If he starts looking for information about sex, I'll do whatever I can to clear things up before it causes problems."

Leaning against the all, Ryosuke's expression shifted to thoughtful. "Convincing Fujiwara to say hai happened a lot faster than I expected. I thought I would have to go through several weeks of you two arguing, or ignoring each other before Fujiwara grasped that you're seriously in love with him. I'm actually surprised that Fujiwara was able to grasp this situation at all. I would never have been able to reconcile being glared at for weeks with a case of unrequited love the way it sounds like he has."

Ryosuke shook his head and sighed. "Just be certain you don't back Fujiwara into any corners now that he's going to try to accommodate you. It might backfire if you get too pushy with him before he can fully come to grips with your attachment, Keisuke."

Keisuke frowned. "Che. I know that, Aniki. I've got a lot of planning to do so I can make certain I don't lose Takumi. You may say not to manipulate things, but if I'm going to hold onto him, I do need to make certain he lets me into his life and his heart. You told me that it would take a lot of reinforcement that he's loved for himself to win him over, and I'm going to do everything I can think of to make sure it happens. The hardest part will be coming up with a way to make sure Takumi can't stand the thought of breaking up with me. I won't risk losing him now that he's giving me a chance to prove we belong together."

His darker haired brother sighed. "I told you about the need to reinforce that you love Fujiwara to help you understand how to reach him, Keisuke. If you can restrain your forceful side long enough for Fujiwara to get used to seeing you as something other than a mentor, or rival, things may work out to your satisfaction. But, I'm worried that if you go overboard, Fujiwara will get overwhelmed and withdraw more than you can handle. I know you well enough to realize that you'll manipulate things to get your ends met, even without meaning to do so. Fujiwara could leave the team if he gets upset by this very unfamiliar situation. He needs time to learn about the expectations before he makes a full commitment to something this serious. That's naze I'm reminding you to curb your manipulative side where possible, little brother. Fujiwara isn't stupid, and I don't want you to get your heart broken because you fail to pay attention to your own actions."

Keisuke scratched his head as he fought down his annoyance. "I understand that already. I'm not going to do anything to blow things with Takumi if I can avoid it. He needs time to get used to things changing, but Takumi's going to give me a fair chance to prove we belong together. That's nani I've got to figure out how to prove to him. He said he has to be involved with doing things he's not used to in order to understand everything, but I'm not willing to push my luck unless Takumi decides he wants to move forward. That could blow everything. I'm not going to make him feel like quitting the team either. So back off, Aniki."

"I'm glad that you're thinking things through, Keisuke. I suppose I should offer my congratulations. I know you'll need ideas about how to proceed with Fujiwara, and I'll listen to whatever you have to say once I get a few hours of sleep. Right now I really need to eat something and go to bed. Share whatever plan you come up this evening. I'll try to help you fine tune it so you don't scare Fujiwara off."

Ryosuke moved down the stairs as Keisuke rolled his eyes over his older brother's lecturing. As annoying as he found Ryosuke's habit, Keisuke understood it was an attempt to look after his well being. The blond knew his brother had a lot of insight into Takumi's personality, and could give him solid ideas when he needed them.

Their conversation had also pushed thoughts about Takumi's kisses aside long enough to calm his desire somewhat. The spiky haired man smirked over his brother's harsher comments, followed by an offer to help. Keisuke headed toward his bedroom to think about what he should do to get his new boyfriend to fall equally in love with him.
