AN: I have been slowly building up background detail! And just so you guys know, I will be using POV's from all the Grav characters! It's not just Ryuichi and Tohma, although I absolutely LOVE that pairing! Anyways, enjoy.

Chapter Three:Sakazuki

"...uchi-san? Seguchi-san! Shacho!"

"Huh? Oh!" Tohma snapped out of his day dreams and turned to his subordinate. Sakano looked worried. Tohma smiled to ease his concern. "I'm fine, Sakano-san. Trust me, I was just thinking deeply..."

"E-excuse my impertinence, Shacho...but...have you listened to a word I've said?"

Tohma blinked and tried to remember just what the man had been saying, he flushed slightly and opened his mouth before sighing heavily. "Ah...I'm sorry, Sakano-san! I was completely out of it!"

"This is unlike you..." Sakano muttered. "Are you sick? Ah! Do you have the flu? Do you want me to call the doctor? I'll make an appointment right away!" he turned and made to run out the door in a panic, Tohma stood and grabbed his arm.

"Sakano-san, I am fine. There's nothing wrong with my health. So, if you would be so kind as to finish your report so I can return home I would be most grateful."

"I'm so sorry, Shacho...I'll...finish right away!" Sakano shoved his glasses up the bridge of his nose and cleared his throat. "Concerning the company, Bad Luck have yet to finish making their album which is due to be released in two days. Sakuma-san has been in contact from our American offices and seems to be doing well, I have been informed that his career is as good as usual. Shindou-kun is having temporary writers block and no amount of pressure from K-san has been helping. Apparently Yuki-san has been a bit mean to him and his slump is due to those issues, they should be making up soon though. Nakano-kun has written music for every song Shindou-kun has written as has Fujisaki-kun, it is just the vocals that need to be completed."

Tohma felt himself frown darkly. He despised the pink haired brat. He was interfering in the business and although he was talented, he was hyperactive and did not work well unless he had Yuki Eiri holding his hand. Tohma's frown turned into something nastier as he stared into space. He despised him. Not just because of his many flaws but because for some unfathomable reason Yuki Eiri was in love with him, and Tohma had no time for any of Yuki's lovers. Jealousy always had a hand in his feelings toward them, but that had only been vague when he knew Eiri was straight. Now that he had chosen a male lover he could feel the searing heat of actual hatred. Shindou Shuichi was a problem he would have to rectify at some point, he would once again regain Eiri's affections even if it meant removing the unsightly pink haired idiot. Then he thought about what Ryuichi would say, Ryuichi liked the boy they were very similar in many ways and Ryuichi had taken the boy under his wing.

"Shacho?"

"Oh, yes, sorry..." Tohma sighed and rubbed his eyes, he had been daydreaming again! "I think I may need to retire early tonight. I have had rather a lot on my mind and it seems to be affecting my sleep. I apologise, Sakano-san. Please do continue."

Sakano nodded. "As to matters concerning the family..." he began. "There have been several reports from all over the city concerning the Chinese."

Tohma's attention snapped into focus and he leaned forward on his desk. "What's been happening?"

Sakano dropped his normally nervous manner and removed his glasses before rubbing them on his shirt and replacing them. "There have been sightings of Hei Shong members going into our bars, when we have asked the owners about it they deny it. I have a feeling there is something more to this than meets the eye."

"Hong Ch'en must really be desperate if he's seeking to undermine me..." Tohma's frown became more pronounced. Then he looked up. "Contact Ryuichi, ask him to return. Then, ask K-san to go undercover and bring us as much information as possible. We have to know if they are declaring war...if so we need to recall him. We can't do this without his skills."

"Yes, sir." Sakano bowed low and walked out the door.

A few days later Tohma once again sat in his office, he was signing documents with a small frown of concentration. Suddenly something slammed into the desk right beside his hand. He jerked away and let out a small gasp of surprise. He stared at the thing that had surprised him. Buried in the desk where his fingers had been moments before was a blade. A tiny, intricate throwing dagger. It had a beautiful dragon carved into the shining silver, its handle was black and fit neatly into the palm of a hand. Slowly he raised his eyes and saw a dark figure, cloaked in shadows as the sun disappeared behind the buildings. A smile crept across his face and he stood. "Welcome home, Ryuichi." He said as he stood from his chair.

"I'm home, Tohma." Ryuichi stepped into the light and walked to his friend.

"It's been too long, you should have called before breaking in here. What if I'd not realised it was you?"

Ryuichi grinned and leaned over before ripping the blade from the desk. "I knew you'd recognise my calling card."

Tohma shook his head as he watched the dagger disappear up Ryuichi's sleeve. "So, this means you have heard?"

Ryuichi sat down on Tohma's desk with a sigh. "Yeah, problems with the Chinese?"

Tohma nodded. "Yes, I have sent K-san undercover but he hasn't returned yet. Once we know what they're up to for certain we'll act, and I will need your help."

Ryuichi smiled, it was full of bitterness. "You call me back only when you desperately need me? You were the one who ordered me to America in the first place! After everything I did for you! After giving you everything, you just sent me away! As if my love for you meant nothing!" His eyes flashed in anger.

"Ryuichi...I didn't send you to America just to get rid of you! We need contacts there, we need someone to help us get the guns! I thought you understood this!"

He laughed caustically and covered his face with one gloved hand. "I only ever wanted to be by your side!" He said softly. "I wanted nothing more than to be your shield! Your protector! But you..."

Suddenly Tohma pulled Ryuichi's face close, his fingers tangling in his hair. His lips met the singers passionately and they moaned. When he pulled away he had a slight pinkish flush to his cheeks and Ryuichi looked pained. "I never wanted you to put yourself at risk for me." Tohma said slowly.

"But...isn't that what I'm supposed to do?" Ryuichi whispered, his eyes shining softly.

"Yes...and no. I do not want you to take any bullets for me! Ryuichi, I couldn't stand it if I lost you."

The singer smiled and leaned back on his hands. "Still the same as ever." He said. "Ah, this is nostalgic..." His eyes closed and he smiled happily. "I remember everything...even down to the taste of the sake when we exchanged Sakazuki...And I remember the day you married Ane-san."

Tohma smiled as he walked around his desk and picked up his smart blazer jacket. He looked over his shoulder at Ryuichi. "You coming? Let's get a drink."

Ryuichi chuckled and jumped from the desk, he walked toward Tohma and opened the door allowing his boss and friend to walk through before him. Tohma glanced at Ryuichi as they walked; the stay in America had done him good. He was lean but still obviously well muscled, his shirt was open half way down his chest and made from a silky black material. His trousers were very tight leather and he had sunglasses perched on top of his head, he wore boots that came up to his calf muscles and a single piece of black ribbon around his throat. His hands had black biker gloves on and his wrists were covered with leather straps. His large collection of knives were so well hidden it didn't look as if he any on him, but Tohma knew he had the knives stashed in straps up his sleeves, in his belt and even in his boots. Ryuichi never went anywhere without his weapons. As they reached the elevator Ryuichi stopped and Tohma saw a grin spread across his face, his eyes were focussed on something down the corridor. He suddenly heard shouting and the voice set his teeth on edge. "SHU-CHAAAAN!" Ryuichi suddenly cried and ran over to the boy who was lying in a heap outside one of the recording studios. Tohma felt a sudden surge of jealousy as Ryuichi embraced the boy.

"Waaah!" Shuichi was slammed into the floor as Ryuichi hit him in the chest and wrapped his arms around him. "S-Sakuma...san..." He gasped as he tried to breath.

Ryuichi released him and giggled childishly. "I missed Shuichi!" he said with obvious joy.

Shuichi struggled free of the older man's death grip, but as he did so he felt something hard and sharp dig into his hip. He winced and hissed air through his teeth and looked down. His eyes widened as he saw the glint of metal. Without thinking he grabbed Ryuichi's shirt and lifted it, tucked into his belt were a line of daggers. A whole row of dragon's teeth. "S-sakuma...san?" His eyes met the older man's and he saw they were wide and suddenly very, deadly serious. "What...?"

"Shh!" He covered Shuichi's mouth and pulled the pink haired boy's fingers from his shirt. He still sat astride him and he finally sat up dragging the boy with him. "Let's just pretend you didn't see anything?" he said with a smile. "It really would be safer for everyone concerned."

Shuichi's eyes seemed to fill his whole face and he nodded quickly, his Adams apple bobbed as he swallowed nervously. Finally Ryuichi released him. "Uh...I-It's nice to s-see you...Sakuma-san..." Shuichi muttered in an attempt to hide the awkwardness.

"Yeah! It's good to be back! I really mis..."

"Ryuichi...are you coming?" Tohma's voice cut through Ryuichi's sentence. He looked over his shoulder and grinned at Tohma whose face was a polite mask.

"Yeah, sorry, Tohma!" he stood and dragged Shuichi to his feet and released his hand, which was sweaty from fear. "Let's catch up later, ne?" Ryuichi said and ruffled Shuichi's hair before walking to Tohma's side.

Shuichi watched the pair walk away and he frowned. Why had Ryuichi been carrying weapons? His eyes followed the pair, Ryuichi was talking animatedly to Tohma with a hand resting on his shoulder. His face was all smiles but the young singer was unable to get that cold hard look out of his head. For a split second he had actually been terrified of Sakuma Ryuichi!

"Shuichi?"

He jumped as a hand descended on his shoulder. When he spun around he saw Hiro standing there with Fujisaki at his side, he caught Fujisaki's quick glance in Seguchi's direction and he noted the unexpected guest. His eyes narrowed faintly before Hiro spoke. "Wow! You're pretty jumpy all of a sudden...what happened?"

"Ah...Hiro...I..." He was about to admit what he had seen then caught himself. He couldn't do it. The threat in his idols eyes had been far too obvious. He swallowed nervously and looked away. "Nothing...I'm fine."

"Huh. You don't look it...you look a bit pale." Hiro lifted his fringe and pressed his palm against Shuichi's forehead. "Hmm. You don't have a temperature..." He mused.

"Of course not! I'm fine, it's just work's getting to me! I'll get over it."

Hiro frowned briefly and his eyes snapped to the corridor Ryuichi and Tohma had just disappeared down. "Did...Sakuma-san...say anything, or do anything to you? Did he upset you?" Hiro asked slowly.

Shuichi shook his head quickly, too quickly in Hiro's opinion. He decided to leave it for now, if it was serious he would get it from his friend eventually. He put his arm around Shuichi's shoulders and smiled. "I wanna go out tonight, let's have fun."

Shuichi's eyes went dark for a moment. He wanted to go home and see Yuki but his boyfriend wasn't being all that pleasant at the moment due to a deadline just around the corner. They were both stressed and they spent more time angry and having furious make-up sex than they did actually talking. Shuichi ached at the very thought of having to be put through the furious pounding Yuki was sure to give him when he returned so, he decided to let himself relax for a while. "Yeah, sure...I'd like that."

"I wanna go to that new club." Hiro began talking as he steered Shuichi toward the elevator. "Apparently they've got some decent prices and good music too..."

"Sounds good."

Ryuichi stepped through the door of the bar, he knew the place well and the look of it hadn't changed since he had last been in Japan. He smiled and walked over to the bar followed by Tohma. They greeted the bar tender and were ushered into a seat, they were surrounded by deep bows and polite greetings which Tohma acknowledged with nods. Ryuichi sat beside his friend and they had their drinks brought to them. They had a cosy corner all to themselves and they began chatting quietly about the past and what had been happening to them recently. They became so involved in their conversation that they forgot the time, until they were interrupted by the doors opening and a loud voice intruded on their talk. Ryuichi looked around to see several boys all enter the bar, one had a mop of bubblegum pink hair, the other had long reddish brown hair and they were giggling like school children. "Shuichi?" Ryuichi muttered and turned to Tohma. "You wanna invite them over to our table?" He asked but stopped when he saw the dark look on his bosses face. "Guess that's a no then..." Ryuichi chuckled and ran fingers through his hair. "Look, they can't see us from the bar, so just forget about them..."

Tohma clenched his hand into a fist as it rested on the table, his eyes seemed glued to Shuichi. Ryuichi looked from one to the other then moved so he sat before Tohma and blocked his view of the younger man. The blond blinked in surprise and looked into his friend's serious face, his deep blue eyes glittered under the soft lighting in the room and he looked deep into them. He knew of Ryuichi's strong feelings for him, he had always known. But he was unable to feel the same way. Endo, the old Oyabun of their family, had arranged a marriage for him not long after he had been officially recognised as his heir. He had met the girl and agreed, not that he had much choice in the matter, as soon as he had sold his soul to the old pervert by agreeing to do the things he had done he knew that he would never again be able to make his own life's decisions. He reached over to Ryuichi slowly and took his friends face in his hand, his eyes fell half closed and he leaned in Ryuichi's face went from shock to anger and he pushed Tohma away roughly, his eyes darting around the room. "Shit, Tohma! What the hell are you doing? Do you want to risk your position?"

Tohma drew away with a heavy sigh and shook his head. "No...I apologise. It's just that...recently I haven't been feeling myself."

Ryuichi sighed and slumped into the seat. He picked up his drink and inspected the golden liquid before downing it. "I know. I can see it, you're tired Boss...perhaps you should get some rest. Let me take you home and..."

"No. It's been so long that you and I have spent time together like this, let me have this moment." Tohma saw a look cross Ryuichi's face, his eyes went dead and he looked away.

"I've always known that you will never feel the same way for me as I do you..." He breathed, barely a whisper of air past his lips. "I-I've always known. But, I can't seem to let you go...I had at least hoped you'd let me be of more use than a fucking runner! All I do is get the damn weapons and porn and use our contacts to ship them out...but I can do more! I'm better than that! I'm capable of watching your back and making sure no one ever hurts you! If I could die by your side knowing I had died for you...I would be the happiest guy in the world. That's all I want. I never wanted anything else..."

"Ryuichi..." Tohma sighed heavily.

Shuichi sat in a seat and he could hear soft voices in the little booth behind him. Voices he knew. And what they were saying sent chills up his spine. He sat on his own while Hiro went to order their drinks, he heard Ryuichi's voice speaking softly about dying for Tohma. He heard smuggling mentioned and he felt sick. He had had no idea. He hadn't even entertained the notion...

NG productions was run by Yakuza.

END NOTE: OMG! Shuichi is thick! Lol. Nah, I'm jking, he's adorable! So, this is just to clear up a few things, just in case some people are confused:

Sakazuki : In the yakuza initiation ceremony, the blood is symbolized by sake (rice wine). The oyabun and the initiate sit face-to-face as their sake is prepared by azukarinin (guarantors). The sake is mixed with salt and fish scales, then carefully poured into cups. The oyabun's cup is filled to the brim, befitting his status; the initiate gets much less. They drink a bit, then exchange cups, and each drinks from the other's cup. The kobun has then sealed his commitment to the family. (-Taken from Wikipedia)

Oyabun: The family boss or Godfather.

Kobun: Underlings or "Children".

Ane-san: Respectful term for the Oyabun's wife. Means "Big sis".

Hei Shong: Black Bear (...Maybe? If I have this wrong please let me know! Thanks!) I used this for the name of a Chinese gang that are encroaching on Tohma-gumi's (Lol) territory. (gumi=group)

Ok, if there's anything else you need clearing up, please don't hesitate to message me! Love to you all!
