"YUUUK-"

"Shut up boy," Eiri said, trying to unpack his bags in peace, already getting a migraine.

Shuichi folded his arms behind his back and put on a pouting face.

"I just got here. Don't make me regret it. You're even lucky I'm here. The soon as your stupid idol gets out of the hospital, I'm leaving. However, if you bother me, I'm leaving, you get into my space, I'm leaving, you interupt my work, I'm-"

"YUUUKI I KNOW!" Shuichi said, more of a whine than a yell. "I promise I will make it seem like we're back at home."

Eiri smiled and nodded slightly. "Good. Now that we understand each other, I'm surprised that Hiro guy isn't putting up a fuss that you left the room. Isn't the band supposed to stay together in the same room or something like that," he said, pulling out a pack of cigarettes from underneath a pile of miscellaneous things he brought with him. Shuichi watched him place his laptop carefully on the top of the almond desk that resided within the room and sighed.

"He's got Suguru. I think he likes him. But that may be my fault, I made them sleep in the same bed together, but I wasn't about to share a bed with Hiro, Yuki, he takes up the bed with his legs and steals all the covers!"

Eiri cringed slightly in annoyance with the shreiking of the pop star's voice. "Must you ALWAYS enforce your words with such an annoying screech?" he growled, glancing behind him at Shuichi. Shuichi stood straight up as if in the army. "I don't give a damn about HIro and his sudden infatuation with that band member of yours. Now that you know he's another one of you, why don't you try getting with him."

Shuichi's amethysts went wide and glossy. "B-b-but Yuki, why would I wanna do that, I got you!"

That was what Eiri was afraid he'd say. With a slight moan of defeat, he continued to gather his business materials out of the suitcase, followed by a change of clothes for the next day. He didn't feel the need to bring anything else and made perfectly sure that he'd be leaving the next day.

"Besides, Hiro doesn't like me that way..."

Now Eiri done it. He struggled to block out Shuichi's voice as he rambled on about if Hiro liked him that way or not and if he had, he was keeping it inside very well. Eiri didn't care. He couldn't even bring up something to Shuichi without Shuichi twisting it around and talking about it until Eiri wouldn't feel satisfaction unless his hands were wrapped around the boy's neck.

"Shuichi, I can care less. Now shut up and go play with your friends."

Shuichi scrunched up his face in a pout and stomped his foot. When he turned around to leave, Eiri took advantage of the solitude. It wouldn't last.


Ryuichi jumped up out of his sleep, short of breath and in panic. Tohma jolted out of his sleep and was immediately alert. Before speaking, he grabbed the boys arms to try and calm him down. Ryuichi was never seen this way before. He had some pretty horrible dreams but this beats them all.

"Tohma-san!" he cried when he finally reached somewhat of a clue where he was and who he was with. Tohma had his hands wrapped around Ryuichi's wrists and using most of his strength to hold him down.

"I'm here Ryuichi. I'm here. No one's going to hurt you anymore, I promise."
Tohma had said this so sincerely that his eyes watered and Ryuichi followed once he had calmed down.

"Tohma-san..." Ryuichi whispered, bringing his hand to Tohma's cheek and allowing Tohma to lean into his touch.

"I've missed you," Tohma said in the same tone. "For a while there, I thought you were going to leave us."

Ryuichi shook his head slowly. "I tried to talk to you but you couldn't hear me...and then..."

Tohma was alert when Ryuichi started staring at the ceiling, all color that was left in his face, drained in that instant.

"Ryuichi?" Tohma questioned in a slight panic, heart jumping into his throat.

"Tatsuha-kun."

Tohma frowned slightly and had to wonder why he said that before speaking to him.

"Tatsuha? What about him?"

"He came to see me," Ryuichi said, continuing to stare at the ceiling, not blinking once. "I watched his every move and heard his voice speaking to me."

Tohma didn't know where he was coming from, but allowed him to continue talking.

"The words I heard...it was not like Tatsuha-kun at all. It was horrible."

Tohma caressed Ryuichi's cheek softly. "What did he say, Ryuichi?" he asked, voice almost unheard.

"He said...to wait for him and...he wanted me to open my eyes to him...oh Tohma-san, I don't know!"

Tohma took his hand and rubbed the surface of it with his thumb softly. Tohma wasn't sure where this was going. He had no idea that Tatsuha came and visited him. Usually he'd have wind of something like that. Noiko was here earlier, so was Hiro and Shuichi. Why didn't they tell him? And then it hit him. He looked at Ryuichi's worn out body as he started to fall asleep somewhat peacefully. The worst things in the world could happen to Ryuichi and he'd still fall asleep peacefully. It made Tohma mad. Ryuichi knew exactly who did this to him but wasn't telling Tohma for some reason. No matter. It hit him like a bolt of lightning. He stopped dead and felt an overwhelming surge of hate course through his veins. Cursing slightly, then louder, he balled a fist and delivered it to the chair he had been sitting in for those two nights in a row. Not even thinking of his actions, he ripped out of the room and found the nearest exit. Luckily for him he was on the first floor and found a door straight down the hall a few doors down. He exited and took out his cell phone in a flash and dialed a familiar number. He didn't know what direction to voice his anger, so decided to let it flow out to the next voice he heard.

"Hello?" the voice on the other line said after two rings.

"Eiri? Where's Shuichi?" Tohma said, sounding extremely calm, but boiled inside.

"Beats me," he muttered. "Try Hiro."

Tohma was about to open his mouth again but was greeted by a dial tone. He swore loudly and forced himself not to punch the nearest thing to him. He found Hiro's number in his address book and sent the call. His head pounded and his teeth clenched together.

"Yeah?" answered a tired voice.

"You...son of a bitch!" Tohma said to Hiro in not even a breath later after the greeting.

Hiro paused before speaking. "Seguchi? Is that you?"

"Why didn't you tell me Tatsuha visited Ryuichi? How dare you not tell me!"

Hiro, still tired, sat up and threw his legs over the side of the bed. Suguru beside him, also being awakened by the phone call.

"I didn't know it was going to be a big deal! So he visited Ryuichi. What does that got to do with you?"

"I was supposed to be here protecting Ryuichi and you let the rapist in behind my back!"

Hiro threw his hand over his face and groaned. "What are you talking about? I didn't let anyone do anything"

Tohma, unable to control his anger, collided his fist with the brick building. "Are you blind!" Tohma accused with the loudest yell anyone had ever heard him do. "Tatsuha raped Ryuichi and he's coming back to finish him off!"


Poor Tohma. Yes I FINALLY got in another chapter in my busy schedule. I don't know how accurate though I am anymore with Gravitation. I had to take a second thought on the spelling of Ryuichi and Shuichi! I'm definitely out of practice so while I catch up, write a review and let me know how it was! Thanks guys
