Chapter
2. Doubt and Suspicion

�Ryo� Perv� I�m home,� Bikky yelled as he slammed the door behind
him and sauntered into the kitchen, flinging his backpack on the ground and
opening the fridge to survey its contents.
�Hey, is anybody here? I�m
starving!�

�Don�t
answer him; maybe he�ll go away,� Dee mumbled groggily from underneath the blankets as he
lifted his sleep-tousled head and glanced at the clock on their nightstand.

�Dee, be nice,� Ryo murmured as his
dark eyes opened sleepily, feeling the sensation of drowsiness slowly leave his
body. He stretched, arching his back as
he rolled over and looked at the clock.
Ryo blinked in surprise at the late hour, silently berating himself for
not thinking to set the alarm before they had drifted off for a nap. Well, not that he had been worried about such
matters when Dee had put his talented tongue to
work worshipping every inch of his body.
A heated blush raced across Ryo�s cheeks as he recalled what they had
been doing for most of the day, and he shook his head to clear it of the
suggestive thoughts. He was getting as
bad as Dee.

The honey
blond disentangled himself from Dee�s arms, pulling back the sheets as he got out of their
bed. Turning towards the bedroom door,
he yelled, �I�ll be out in a few minutes, Bikky. There�s some fruit in the fridge if you�re
hungry until I make dinner.�

Dee watched Ryo�s movements as he
gathered some clothes into his arms and made his way into the bathroom. �So, I guess we won�t be taking a shower
together after all,� Dee
lamented regretfully as he got out of the bed and stretched, revealing his
perfectly toned frame. Damn Bikky for
ruining their sex life once again.

�I guess
not, but it�s okay, Dee. Bikky needs us now. I can�t believe we fell asleep for three
hours,� Ryo said quietly, blushing further as he realized that Dee had physically worn him out.

Dee moved behind Ryo and snaked his
arms around Ryo�s sleek waist, pulling him tightly against his bare chest and
causing Ryo to gasp at the contact. Dee brought his mouth down to lavish
heated kisses across the sensitive flesh of Ryo�s neck as he gently stroked his
hands across Ryo�s flat stomach and sides.
�Don�t be long,� Dee whispered seductively, bringing his hand down to squeeze
Ryo�s firm ass before releasing him.

�Dee, you�re insatiable. Now go get ready for dinner,� Ryo said firmly
as he tried to look stern. His body
belied his words, and a shiver traveled up Ryo�s spine from the intimate contact
despite himself. The honey blond closed
the door behind him, stepping into the shower as Dee sighed and lit a
cigarette.

Dee gazed
out the bedroom window as he sat and smoked.
Their time together had been just what they needed to reaffirm their
relationship, and Dee had been grateful for it.
He had even promised to work an extra nightshift so that he and Ryo
could have off on the same day, although he hadn�t told Ryo that that had been
part of the agreement. He was willing to
do anything for Ryo, even if it meant putting in extra hours to catch up on
their seemingly endless paperwork. Ryo
was the best thing that had ever happened to him.

Upon
further reflection, Dee realized that he never wanted to live without Ryo, and
he honestly didn�t know if he even could.
He had vowed that he would do everything in his power to keep Ryo by his
side, and the words that he had spoken to Ryo one year ago were reaffirmed with
a vengeance. I�ll never lose you to another guy.
No, Dee amended; he wouldn�t lose his Ryo to anyone. He loved Ryo so much. Dee knew that he could never let Ryo go.

Ryo let
the hot water wash over his sleekly muscular body, his hands gently traveling
across his pale skin where Dee�s had been just moments before as he lathered
himself with soap and closed his dark eyes.
Dee was the only man, no - the only person, who could make the usually
reticent honey blond feel so totally and completely loved. Although Ryo was still uncomfortable with
displays of affection in public that indicated they were more than just
friends, he could not deny that Dee had a hypnotizing affect on him that made
him blush warmly whenever he gazed too deeply into Dee�s intense emerald
eyes. He just hoped that Dee realized
the extent of the struggle that he went through every time he had to be honest
about who he was in front of another person.
Ryo wondered how much longer Dee would be okay with getting the cold
shoulder while at work or with Bikky around and then having him be open and
affectionate behind closed doors. Dee
hid it well, but Ryo could sometimes see the underlying hurt residing behind
the guise of his piercing emerald eyes.

Ryo found
himself craving Dee�s touch even more when he didn�t allow the dark-haired man
to even steal a kiss from him at work, depending on how busy the station
was. It was part of the reason why Ryo was
so passionate when they finally got to be alone together or make love. Dee was endearingly patient with him, but the
honey blond felt that it was not fair to keep pushing away what he so
desperately wanted. Every man had his
limit, and Ryo did not want to discover Dee�s.

Ryo
savored the contact from the heated spray as he washed himself off, deep in
thought, and stepped out into the misty room.
He loved Dee with his whole heart, and nothing could change that. Now if he could only conquer his shyness and
be able to show the handsome raven-haired man how much before he inevitably
pushed Dee away.

Minutes
later, Ryo emerged from the shower and made his way out into the kitchen. �Hello Bikky,� Ryo greeted his charge as he
tied an apron over the faded jeans and white button-down shirt that he wore and
started boiling water. �How was your
sleepover at Lai�s?�

�Cool; we
went to that basketball court down the street from his house and played all
afternoon today,� Bikky said enthusiastically, munching on an apple as he sat
at the kitchen table.

Ryo smiled
as he cut up some vegetables. He was
glad that the rambunctious boy was starting to settle down somewhat since he
had taken him in. Although Bikky still
retained his tough guy attitude with others, he had come to respect Ryo and to
allow his relationship with Dee. Bikky
had begrudgingly accepted that Dee was not going anywhere, and he really wanted
to see Ryo happy, even if that meant that he had to share Ryo�s attention with
Dee. He still fought with Dee, but it
was more out of tradition than anything else.

�Hey,�
Bikky said suspiciously as he watched Ryo prepare the food. �What the hell is wrong with the perv today? I
thought you guys wanted to be left alone in the apartment.� Bikky knew that Dee would never pass on an
opportunity to be alone with Ryo and would definitely take full advantage when
one presented itself.

�What do
you mean?� Ryo asked, puzzled, as he turned to look at Bikky
questioningly.

�Well, I
saw him in Lai�s neighborhood. He was
getting into a limo across the street from the court where we were
playing. He was dressed in this really
fancy suit and even had a driver and everything. He was pretty convincing. You�d almost think that he was rich or
something.�

A slight
frown appeared on Ryo�s handsome face at this information. �But that�s not even the strangest part,�
Bikky continued. �The stupid perv totally ignored me.
I waved to him and called out, but he just got into the car and didn�t
even glance my way. What a dumbass.�

�But
that�s not possible. He was here with
me the whole day. Are you sure that it
was Dee?� Ryo prompted, more confused than ever. Bikky nodded vehemently, which only made
Ryo�s frown deepen. He was not aware of
any undercover assignments that Dee was working on without him. That would seem the only reason possible for
his strange behavior and for blatantly ignoring Bikky. If he did not want his identity known, why
hadn�t he just explained to Bikky beforehand so the youth would not jeopardize
his cover being blown by an innocent mistake?
It didn�t make sense. Besides,
Dee had been with him the whole day� or had he?
Ryo and Dee had fallen asleep together, but Ryo had been exhausted and
had slept deeply. He wouldn�t have
noticed if Dee had left and come back in the meantime. Three hours would have been enough time for
Dee to assume his fa�ade and return, the peacefully sleeping Ryo being none the
wiser.

Seeing
Ryo�s growing unease, Bikky shifted in his seat uncomfortably. He had not meant to upset Ryo by the
information, but he hated to think that Dee would not treat Ryo right. With Bikky, trust was not given freely; it
had to be earned. Ryo was too trusting,
and even though Dee had been deemed trustworthy so far, Bikky did not want to
see him get hurt. He would have to keep
a closer watch on Dee.

Just then,
Dee strolled into the kitchen, raven hair still damp from his shower. He wore a black tank top with the letters
NYPD across the front and tight dark blue jeans that hugged his frame
invitingly. �Hey Bik,�
he said in greeting to Bikky as he walked over to Ryo and snaked his arms
around Ryo�s waist from behind. �Hey
babe,� he whispered into Ryo�s ear as Ryo gasped softly in surprise and
subconsciously leaned back into Dee�s touch, a warm blush spreading across his
fair cheeks.

�Get your
filthy paws off of Ryo!� Bikky yelled warningly, interrupting their tender
moment. �Just because it�s your stupid
Anniversary doesn�t mean I�m giving you any slack with him. I don�t know how he put up with you for so
long anyway.�

�Hey
monkey brat, relax. The same could be
said for you. I just came into the
kitchen to see if Ryo needed any help with dinner,� Dee said nonchalantly as he
released Ryo and sat down at the table, lighting a cigarette.

�You did
not. You can�t cook for shit. You just wanted to grope him and now you�re
mad because I�m here too and you can�t,� Bikky stated in triumph.

Dee�s
mouth fell open at the accusation and he bristled before admitting defeat and
laughing. Bikky knew him too well. He brushed a strand of his ebony hair out of
his eyes and got up to set the table for dinner, leaning over and planting a
quick kiss on Ryo�s cheek when Bikky wasn�t looking.

�Hey Perv, what�s the big idea with ignoring me earlier today?�
Bikky asked harshly as they all sat down and Ryo began serving the meal. Ryo listened intently, wondering what Dee was
keeping from him. He did not know what
to make of Bikky�s accusation, and wanted to know the full details of the story
before coming to a final conclusion concerning the matter.

�What the
hell are you talking about?� Dee asked as he glared at Bikky. �This is the first time I saw you today, and
since when would you even want to acknowledge that you know me in public
anyway?�

�Don�t act
stupid,� Bikky said. �Earlier today, at
the basketball court by Lai�s. Don�t you
remember? I called out to you, but you
were too busy getting into your fancy limo to reply. In fact, you flat out ignored me. What�s that about, and who was that other guy
driving? Why wasn�t Ryo with you? Trying to be super cop with a new partner?�

�That�s
bullshit. Why would I be riding around
in a limo? I was here with Ryo all
day. Ask him,� Dee said, his green eyes
flashing. He looked at Ryo for support,
but was only met with Ryo�s downcast eyes.
If Dee had apologized or made up an excuse, Ryo would have accepted it,
but Dee had outright denied the whole incident.
Ryo didn�t know what to think.

Ryo had
been silent throughout this whole time, and that worried Dee. Usually the honey blond broke up the fight or
left the room when Dee and Bikky argued.
The raven-haired man wondered what his partner was thinking as Ryo
continued to sit quietly and look troubled.

�Hey Bik, why don�t you leave us alone for awhile? I have to talk to Ryo,� Dee said softly.

The brash
teen for once didn�t argue with Dee, and mumbled something about being late for
a movie with Carol to Ryo before grabbing his coat and walking out the
door.

After
Bikky had departed, Dee clasped Ryo�s hands in his and asked softly, �Ryo,
what�s wrong?�

Ryo looked
up at Dee and saw concern present in his deep green eyes. He did trust Dee, but it still hurt that Dee
had not been completely honest with him.
�Where were you earlier?� Ryo questioned hesitantly, not wanting to put
Dee on the defensive by accusing him of doing something wrong before getting
all the facts straight. �Were you out
planning something else for our Anniversary, or did it have something to do
with an undercover case that I was not informed about? You know that you can tell me anything, Dee.�

�I
seriously have no idea what you are talking about, Ryo,� Dee said as he saw the
hurt look in Ryo�s eyes. �I was here
with you the whole day. After we
exchanged gifts and had incredible sex we both fell asleep. I woke up when Bikky got home. Why don�t you believe me?� Dee pressed,
somewhat hurt that he would have to explain himself to Ryo after he had just
answered similar questions from Bikky.

�I want to
believe you,� Ryo said uncertainly.
�It�s just that Bikky seemed so sure, and he wouldn�t purposely try to
upset me. I just want to know what�s
going on.�

�That�s
what I�d like to know,� Dee said in frustration as he irritably lit up another
cigarette. �I wake up and have two
people practically jumping down my throat for something I didn�t do. In fact, I have no idea what you�re talking
about. You know that I would tell you if
I was working on a separate case from you, and I already told you that I was
taking you out to eat for your other present.
I�m not hiding anything. Just
trust me, Ryo.�

Ryo saw
the look of sincerity present in Dee�s emerald eyes and he stood up and
sighed. �You�re right. I�m sorry, Dee. I�ll speak to Bikky tonight about who and
what he saw and get him straightened out.
I�m sure it was just an honest mistake.
I didn�t mean to upset you.
Please forgive me.�

�Come
here, Ryo,� Dee said with a smile as he pulled Ryo close against him and kissed
him softly upon his perfect lips. Ryo
parted his lips as Dee deepened the kiss, sliding his tongue inside Ryo�s hot
mouth and savoring the delicious taste of his dark eyed lover as his hands
roved across Ryo�s back, sliding temptingly lower.

Ryo
clutched Dee close as his breath quickened in excitement and closed his eyes as
he felt Dee�s velvety tongue dip inside of his mouth. This felt so right, so good. As Dee wracked Ryo�s mouth with a passionate
insistence, Ryo felt his knees go weak and he murmured quietly into the kiss,
encouraging Dee with his soft moans as Dee pressed their bodies tightly
together and snaked one hand around Ryo�s waist for support.

Dee broke
the kiss and looked into Ryo�s beautiful eyes, darkened in passion, his face
flushed in pleasure. God, Ryo was so
tempting. Dee tenderly brushed back a
wisp of honey hair from Ryo�s eyes and leaned down to claim another kiss from
the soft lips that he could kiss forever.

A sharp
rapping at the door caused Ryo to tense up.
�Goddammit,� Dee muttered as he reluctantly
pulled away from Ryo. �That apeshit had better have a really good reason for coming
back here this early.�

�He
probably just forgot his key or something,� Ryo said practically. �Don�t worry; we can pick up where we left
off when you get back.�

�Promise?�
Dee asked, his emerald eyes gleaming.

�Yes,� Ryo
whispered shyly.

Ryo
watched Dee walk away and smiled when he heard Dee mutter, �Key, my ass.� He knew that deep down underneath all the
insults that passed between the two, Dee and Bikky cared for each other.

Dee walked
over to the door and flung it open, ready to yell at Bikky for interrupting his
promised time with Ryo. He blinked in
surprise as he came face to face with a UPS delivery man.

�I have a
package for a Mr. Dee Laytner at this address,� the muscular
brown-haired man with piercing gray eyes said with a no-nonsense attitude as he
placed a very large box down on the ground.

�Uh, yeah,
that�s me,� Dee replied, appraising the plain cardboard box curiously.

�Sign here
please,� the man said, handing Dee a pen and indicating the white rectangle at
the bottom of the delivery form.

�Dee, if
that�s Bikky, tell him to return those tapes that he rented from the video
store,� Ryo said as he walked into the living room, drying his hands on a
dishtowel. He stopped when he saw that
Dee was busy with the UPS man. �Oh
sorry,� Ryo said apologetically as he turned to walk back into the kitchen.

�No
problem, Ryo,� Dee called to the honey blond as he hastily scrawled his name
and handed the pen back to the man.
�Just a routine delivery.�

The man
took the pen with a satisfied smile and departed with a brusque, �Thank you,
sir.�

Dee closed
the door and picked up the package, shaking it in an attempt to determine what
it held before using his keys to slit the packing tape that held it shut and
revealing its contents.

�What is
it?� Ryo asked as he came to stand beside Dee and look over his shoulder.

Dee pulled
out a thick stack of plastic-wrapped magazines and smiled wickedly. �Porn,� he said simply before shuffling
through them and enjoying the look of shock that was on Ryo�s face. �Wow, there�s like thirty different ones,
featuring men and women. Here you go �
dig in,� Dee said as he handed Ryo one with a fireman on the cover.

�Dee, I
can�t believe you! We�ve just had sex
three times in the last two days and you feel the need to order all this
pornography?� Ryo yelled in disbelief, feeling slightly embarrassed as he
surveyed the scantily clad men and women in suggestive positions adorning the
covers of the various magazines. He
placed his magazine down on the coffee table huffily. �God, how much did you get? I could see one or two, but this had to have
cost well over three hundred dollars. We
don�t have that kind of money.�

�But Ryo,
I didn�t order it,� Dee protested as he examined the box. �I thought it was a present from you. Someone else must have sent it to me. Hmm, there�s no return address on the
package.�

�Don�t
start, Dee. That package is addressed to
you, and therefore you must know something about it. You�re not getting out of this that easily,�
Ryo said as he started to place the magazines back into the box.

�Ryo, I
have no idea where it came from. Maybe
it was Drake and Ted playing a prank, or someone else sent it,� Dee said placatingly.

�What
other possible explanation could there be, Dee?
Who would randomly send you a supply of that much free porn? It had to be you. Don�t lie to me,� Ryo said, a warning glare
present in his dark eyes as he crossed his arms across his chest.

�I�m not
lying,� Dee said in frustration as he raked his fingers through his dark
hair. �How much worse could this day
get? I am as much in the dark about this
as you are, Ryo. Look, I�m sorry to
upset you, but I�m telling the truth.�

Ryo took a
deep breath to calm himself as he noted Dee�s sincere expression. He was so confused. It had seemed that Dee was up to something,
and strange occurrences for which the raven-haired man had no explanation for
had happened twice in the same day.
Furthermore, Dee had used the same excuse in both cases, leading Ryo to
believe that something was definitely going on.
He wondered where Dee had really been that afternoon, and he frowned
worriedly. Maybe Dee was finally getting
tired of him keeping their relationship under wraps.

�Look,
Dee,� Ryo said quietly as he lowered his expressive eyes. �I have no idea what is going on, but if
you�re not happy with an aspect of our relationship, you know that you can talk
to me about anything.�

�No, Ryo,
that�s not it,� Dee said quickly, hating to see Ryo look so upset.

Ryo cut
him off. �Please, I just want to be
alone right now and think. We�ll talk in
the morning before work when you can tell me what it is.� He walked to their
bedroom and grabbed a blanket and pillow, which he placed on the couch. �Goodnight, Dee,� he said coolly before
walking back to the bedroom and closing the door.

Dee
watched Ryo leave with disbelief, too frozen in shock to say anything. He was more confused than ever. What exactly had happened that day, and why
did no one seem to believe him when he was telling the truth? He only seemed to dig himself into a deeper
hole the more he tried to explain himself.
It was no use talking to Ryo now when the honey blond was upset; he
would only aggravate the situation. He
stretched his long legs out on the couch and tried to find a comfortable
position, laying his head on the pillow as he turned out the light and let his
eyes adjust to the semi-darkness surrounding him.

Dee�s gaze
dropped to the package that sat next to the coffee table and his emerald eyes
narrowed. Whoever had sent this
Pandora�s Box had certainly known what they were doing. He would get to the bottom of it
tomorrow. For now, he would try to sleep
alone, although he doubted if he could.
Ever since he had been with Ryo, it felt wrong not to hold the other man
in his arms through the night. Ryo was
having the same thoughts as he lay alone in the bed, a bed that felt empty and
cold without Dee in it.

__________________________________________________________

The UPS
man exited the apartment complex and walked a block until he got to a black BMW
M5 Coupe with tinted windows. He
discretely clicked open the locks and got into the driver�s seat, removing his
hat as the shrewd man in the back seat closed his laptop and addressed
him. �Hello, James.�

James
started the car and pulled out into the city traffic. �Hello, sir,� he replied as he accelerated
through the streets.

�Well, did
you get what you needed?� David asked casually as he exhaled a plume of smoke
and leaned forward.

�Yes,�
James replied. �It appears that there
isn�t a security system installed in Dee�s place, and the lock pick that you
have should work nicely in opening the door to the apartment.� David nodded in satisfaction as James
continued and handed him the mail form that Dee had signed. �I was also able to obtain Dee�s signature as
you requested. It should be no problem
to transfer it onto your fake driver�s license.�

David
smirked as he glanced at Dee�s messy scrawl, his deep green eyes memorizing the
script. �A young child could easily
duplicate this signature; it�s almost unreadable. This is almost too easy.�

He ran his
fingers through his newly dyed black hair and leaned back against the
seat. �So, does he do me justice in the
looks department?� David asked with a charming smile.

James
glanced in the rearview mirror and scrutinized the almost exact reflection of
the man he had just spoken to minutes earlier.
Colored contacts had allowed David�s piercing eyes to transform from a
pale blue to an emerald green. The
shorter length of his hair accentuated his roguishly handsome features, and the
use of a tanning bed had slightly darkened his skin tone so that it matched
Dee�s natural coloring. He and Dee were
of similar height and had the same sleekly muscular body frame. Their resemblance was further emphasized by
the confident, outgoing personalities that commanded attention and brash,
no-nonsense attitudes that both men possessed.

�Yes, I
think that you could easily be mistaken for him by his friends and colleagues,
although I�m not sure about his unconventional family. He lives with his partner and their foster
son, although I�m still trying to locate a picture of the boy. You would have to know all of Dee�s
idiosyncrasies in order not to bring about suspicion,� James said practically.

�Very
well. More research shall be done,�
David said as he ground out his cigarette, opening his computer and typing
busily. �I have to go to the precinct
tomorrow anyway in order to execute step two of my plan. I will
bring Dee down and make him pay for what he did to me. You do have the floor plans of the 27^th
precinct so that I am able to find my way around, James?�

Seeing
James nod, David turned his attention to the laptop in front of him as he
scanned the precinct�s database. He
brought up the raven-haired detective�s schedule. �Hmm, it seems that he is working second
shift tomorrow with his partner, Randy MacLean.� David pressed a button and smiled in delight
as he enlarged a group picture of all of the detectives in the Criminal
Investigations division. He zoomed in on
each of their faces, memorizing their corresponding names as he went
along. David�s intense gaze lingered on
one man in particular, kind dark eyes highlighting the detective�s genuine
smile. �Ah, so this is the gorgeous
blond that Dee lives with. Well, this
could get very interesting,� he mused. �Hello,
Randy; meet your new partner.�

�No, not
Randy,� James said with a small smile, preventing the one vital flaw in David�s
plan. �Dee called him Ryo.�
