Hey this Atric Tempus and this is my first story and i would appreciate if you would reveiw please. I know its kind of short and everything so bear with me I want to know what people think of it before I continue on with it.

The pairing is Teito and Frau (malexmale) if you don't like then please don't read. there are some minor spoilers in this and for later chapters maybe a lemon.

Chapter 1

Teito walked down the long empty corridors of the Barsburg Church, hoping to forget all about those terrible memories. He took a couple of glances at the moon before letting his emerald eyes fall back to the floor as he kept walking.

Two nights ago he had lost his best friend, Mikage, to a man named Ayanami. The same man that had killed his father years ago. Teito let out a loud sighed that seemed to have lasted forever in the long empty corridor.

Mikage didn't do anything to deserve to have his soul taken away. He didn't do anything to die the way he did. Yet in the end he did do something that he should have never done in the first place. He became friends with Teito. A boy that used to be a slave for the imperial army, before he was taken by Miroku-sama.

It was only a year that they were friends but that time was precous to Teito. They did so many things together in that short of time. Mikage was Teito's first crush and nothing could change that. Mikage was the one who broke through all the barricades to get to Teito.

'Mikage, Mikage I'm so sorry for this.' Teito collapsed into a heap of sobs. "Why did it have to be you? Why did you have to suffer for my crimes?" Teito slammed his fist onto the cried as his tears continued to flow freely down his face.

"Teito?" Teito craned his neck to see who had spoken, trying to get rid of any traces of tears. "What do you want, Frau?" Teito asked his voice shaking, from the tears that he had shed.

Frau frowned, not knowing what to say to the brunette. "I was taking a walk, before I ran into you. You shouldn't be wondering around by yourself." Teito snorted, before standing up to leave to older man behind. "I'll do what I want. I'm not some kid." Teito spoke, walking past Frau with a dead look on his face.

"I just don't want ya hurting yourself. I'm worried about you, and I don't think Mikage would like to see you in this state." Frau reached out and grabbed Teito's hand, yanking him back into a tight hug. "I don't like seeing you like this Teito."

Teito's face turned a dark shade of red as his body stiffened in Frau's arms. He squirmed around in Frau's arms trying to get free. "Frau, let go!" Teito yelled, doubling his efforts to get free.

"I don't want to let go though."

"I want you too."

Frau relunctly let go of Teito and watched the brunette with sapphire eyes. He didn't want to let go of him. Honestly, Frau had grown attached to Teito in the short time he had been at the church and each time, Teito never ceased to amaze him. Some of the things that came out of the kid's mouth didn't make him so much like a kid anymore.

Teito never smiled around people and he never would open up to people, but when Mikage came that's all Teito would do. He would smile, he was more open. Frau wanted to protect that smile, that beautiful light that was Teito. It didn't matter to Frau how it started or if Teito was a boy. Teito is a beautiful, caring light that needs know that it belongs, that some one wants it.

"Frau I'm going back to my room." Teito whispered leaving Frau to stand alone in the dark.

"Teito, please stay."

"Don't say my name anymore, you're better off without me Frau."

Frau watched Teito's figure finally disappear into the darkness, before covering his face with one of his hands. 'Teito, can't you see? I love you more then anyone will.'
