Ryuichi walked into Shuichi’s room to see the younger man sitting up on the edge of the bed. He was rubbing his eyes, as though he had just woke up. “Hey, Shu-chan,” Ryuichi said softly. Shuichi looked up at him and Ryuichi nearly hit the floor. Shuichi looked even sexier fresh from bed! He bit his tongue hard, the pain distracting him and slowing the erection that had begun anew. Shuichi cocked his head to the side and softly smiled.

“Hey Ryu-chan. Do you know what time it is? I couldn’t see a clock in here.”

“It is nearly 1 am. Are you ok?”

“I am holding...that is the best I can say for the moment.” Shuichi’s head lowered for a moment. Ryuichi walked over to him and sat down beside him. Shuichi leaned into him, so Ryuichi wrapped his arms around him in a hug. They sat that way for nearly a half hour until Shuichi’s stomach began to growl. He blushed and sat back up straight. “Umm, I know it is late but...”

“Come with me, Shu-chan.” He held out his hand to the younger vocalist, who without hesitation put his hand into it. Shuichi blushed again as Ryuichi smiled and led him out the door. “I had some food prepped for you earlier. All we have to do is heat it up.” It felt a little odd, this closeness, but still so right. Ryuichi led the way to the kitchen and had Shuichi sit at the island. After punching a few buttons on the microwave, Ryuichi turned back to the younger man. “What do you want to drink? I have soda, tea, coffee, cocoa and energy drinks.” His child-like nature came out then. “No zoom-zoom energy drinks tonight,” a big grin on his face. Shuichi couldn’t help himself, it was almost contagious, that happiness. He grinned back. “There is a bit of the sparkly that I love” Ryuichi giggled out. Then he covered his mouth, a look of shame covering his face.

Looking puzzled, Shuichi walked over to the other, who had turned around. “What’s the matter, Ryu-chan?” Ryuichi would not look at him.

“I’m sorry Shu-chan. I told you I would not pressure you. It just popped...” his voice trailed off, as he felt arms wrap around his waist. He slowly turned around, almost afraid to look into those eyes. When he did, he saw no condemnation, no anger. He carefully returned the hug, burying his face in Shuichi’s neck. All he could smell was strawberries. He started to back away again, when Shuichi tightened his grip.

“You have always been honest with me, Ryu. You aren’t pressuring me. I know you love me and maybe...” his voice shook a bit before he continued. “Maybe, you can save me.” Ryuichi backed away from Shuichi, a little puzzled, a little hurt.

“I want to be here for you but...but please, don’t make me a rebound.” Ryuichi whispered, as a tear trailed down his face. Shuichi looked shocked and then realized how it had sounded.

“I didn’t mean like that Ryu. I have always cared about you. Remember, before we met, you were my idol. The one I wanted to become. Then, we became friends. A part of me already loves who you are. Please, don’t pull away from me now,” he said, starting to cry again. The microwave beeped, as he crumpled onto the floor weeping. Ignoring the microwave, Ryuichi knelt down and held the crying man.

“Shu, I am not going anywhere. Please, don’t cry.” He began rubbing Shuichi’s back, and continued until the sobs let up. “Are you still hungry? The food should still be hot. I will make us some hot cocoa with those colorful marshmallows we both like,.” Shuichi looked up at him, his face tear-streaked. He nodded and shakily got to his feet. After seeing that Shuichi was safely seated, Ryuichi went and grabbed the food. He placed it in front of Shuichi, then went to start the water. When the cocoa was ready, he turned back to see a famished Shuichi inhaling his food. Ryuichi couldn’t help but laugh. “Breathe, Shu-chan, breathe. It isn’t going to run away on you.” At this, Shuichi stopped and then started giggling. They drank their cocoa and Ryuichi cleared away the dishes. He saw Shuichi nodding off in his seat. He placed his hand on Shuichi’s lower back, breaking him away from his doze. “Why don’t we get you back to bed, huh?”

“Yeah,” Shuichi mumbled. “Will you stay with me? I feel calmer when you are there.” Shuichi looked up at Ryuichi with honest eyes causing the older man‘s head to spin as blood rushed away. Ryuichi closed his for a moment, gaining control. Thankfully, he had already put on pajama bottoms.

“Sure, Shu-chan. Let me grab a shirt and we can go to sleep.” At the puzzled look on Shuichi’s face, Ryuichi sighed. “It might not be a good idea for me to sleep with my chest bare. It makes it...never mind,” he cut himself off. Shuichi had already figured out the rest of the unspoken sentence. His eyes went wide and he blushed.

“I don’t want to make you uncomfortable” he said. Ryuichi goggled at him for a moment, then just shook his head.

“I don’t want to make things more uncomfortable for you, Shu. That is the main thing. Let’s go to bed.” When the two had made it almost to the bedroom, Shuichi stopped.

“I will be fine if you feel more comfortable with your shirt off. I have walked in on you before when you sleep. I know how you sleep,” he finished with a blush. Again, Ryuichi gaped at him, then blushed himself. Shuichi took Ryuichi’s hand and led him into the room. “Let’s get some sleep. I do not want to think anymore tonight. Morning is soon enough.” They climbed into bed and Shuichi promptly fell asleep. Ryuichi watched the sleeping man for a while then fell asleep himself.

Morning broke but without sun. A drizzling rain fell heavily. Shuichi rolled over and snuggled in deeper to the warmth beside him. Then his eyes popped open. He remembered the events of the past day and began to weep. Feeling wetness on his chest, Ryuichi woke. He looked down in surprise. He began to move away from the weeping man. “I’m sorry Shu. I must have pulled the blankets over me in my sleep. Please, don’t be upset with me.” Shuichi sniffled and shook his head. Then he pulled Ryuichi back to him.

“I’m not upset with you. I just remembered everything. Don’t go away, please. I need you right now.” Ryuichi understood that need and wrapped his arms around Shuichi. He stroked the younger one’s head, saying nothing. He knew there was not really anything he could say, nothing to ease that broken heart. Finally, Shuichi sat up and wiped his eyes. “I’m sorry. I know this must be hard for you.” Shuichi brought his eyes up to meet sapphire blue ones.

“No need to be sorry. I am glad that I am here and you are not alone dealing with this. My...uh...issues are of no matter right now.” Ryuichi offered a comforting smile. “Do you want breakfast? I make a killer Kuma pancake.” Shuichi let out a small laugh and nodded. Then he paused.

“Um...I do not have any of my stuff here. Can I borrow some of your clothes and can I take a shower?” Ryuichi got up and held out his hand.

“Sure. Come on, I will let you raid my special clothes closet.” He gave Shuichi his trademark grin. Shuichi took the proffered hand and followed Ryuichi into his bedroom. Once in the room, Ryuichi closed the door and let go of Shuichi’s hand. With a enormous “Whoop!”, he darted across the room to a door. He pulled it open and gestured for Shuichi to enter. When Shuichi did, his jaw dropped in amazement at what he saw around him! He grinned at his friend and they went crazy pulling clothes off hangers.

Meanwhile, across town, ”What do you mean ’the number is disconnected’? I called him earlier!” A disgruntled Tohma screamed at his phone, upon hearing the computer-generated voice for a sixth time. He flipped the phone closed and squeezed it. Debating the benefits of hurling it across the room and placing it calmly on his desk, he slowly regained control over his temper. Finally, placing the phone on the desk, he turned to his computer. “There are more than one way to track him.” He accessed his email and found an email from Eiri. With a smirk on his face, he clicked it open to read it. However, before he was finished reading, the smirk was replaced with a frown, followed by a look that could only be described as Death warmed over. He pulled at his hair and wound up throwing his phone after all. The whole thing had gone way different than he had planned. “Why did I go to him with that damn demo? Certainly not because I cared for that idiot’s welfare. I wanted him away from Eiri even if he was DEAD! Why did I go? OH YEAH! THAT’S RIGHT, HE IS MY CURRENT FUCKING MONEYMAKER!” By the end of this he was screaming. He looked back at the email and growled.

Tohma,

Yes, I have left Shuichi. No, not because you wanted me to, and you made it very clear what you wanted. You will not find me, you will not “win” as you think against Shuichi. I made this decision because I DO love Shu. DO NOT try to hurt him, though. It isn’t me you would have to fear. One thing I learned of your friend, Ryuichi, he does not take well to someone hurting his “Sparkly.” Friend or not, you would find yourself in a world of hurt. This is for the best for all involved. Have a miserable life, you asshole!

Eiri

Somewhere, in a rented car, under a false name, Yuki Eiri could almost hear his brother-in-law’s reaction to the email and it made him smirk. The bastard would trace it and after being bounced all over hell and back, he would find it had been sent, on a delay, from his condo. At least that would keep him busy for a bit, and give Shuichi a breather. When his thoughts touched on his former lover, the smirk faded away. He was glad, in a way, that he had not been anywhere near when Shu found him gone. He never would have been able to go through with this. It was the best thing for him but that did not make it any easier. “Go back to thinking of Tohma and his wild goose chase,” Yuki growled at himself. He did and that smirk came back. He had made a good plan and Tohma had no idea where the author would really end up.

Back at Ryuichi’s place, Shuichi looked at himself in the mirror. “Ryuichi? What do you think?” Ryuichi was staring at the younger man, speechless. He suddenly shook his head, wiped the drool that had snuck out of his mouth off, and grinned.

“Like a fox, Shu-chan! Like a fox!” Shuichi giggled and blushed but then the look was gone. Ryuichi could see the sadness back in the violet eyes. He saw the sparkle fade and pain return. He went over just as Shuichi’s knees buckled. The tears were flowing again, and Ryuichi hugged him. “Hush Shu. Kuma-chan and Ryu-chan are here for you.” Shuichi shook with the force of his pain and tugged on his hair. Before he could manage to rip it out, Ryuichi had pulled his hands away from it and forced Shuichi to look at him. “NO hurting yourself. I know what you are feeling and I can not let you be destructive to yourself. Look at me!” Shuichi had pulled his eyes away and tried to yank away from the grip on his wrists. “Look at me, Shuichi,” Ryuichi said in a softer voice. He got both wrists in one hand and made the younger vocalist look at him again. “I understand your pain. I know it feels like you are in agony. I know you are angry underneath it all. Take it out on me if you want to but never on yourself.” He drew him back into an embrace. He rubbed Shuichi’s back until silence replaced the sobs. “Feel better? Shu?” He pulled away a small amount and saw that Shuichi had cried himself back to sleep. He knew the exhaustion that came with those tears. After he had left Shuichi with Yuki, Ryuichi had cried those tears. He, however, had to cry them alone when Tatsuha was away from him. He hadn’t wanted Tatsuha to realize the truth of their situation. Part of him wondered if Tatsuha was crying them himself, but he dismissed the thoughts. Tatsuha would realize he only thought he loved Ryuichi. In time, he would realize the ‘love’ was merely idolatry. Forgetting the other man, Ryuichi turned his attention back to his love in his arms. He picked up Shuichi and brought him to the bed in the room. After placing the sleeping man on the bed, Ryuichi went to grab some pjs. He changed Shuichi’s clothes and placed him under the comforter. Seeing the pink-haired man there looked so right to Ryuichi. After placing a kiss on each of the slumbering eyes, he walked out of the room. Shuichi would need his things, and food when he woke again.
