Absolute

Chapter 1

Oo---O---oO

"Absolute power corrupts absolutely." -Lord Acton, British historian of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Oo---O---oO

In the history of the universe there have been those humans (and some not so human) who try to dominate other beings. Even wildlife, caught in the endless battle for supremacy, dominate one another in an attempt to survive. The sentient however, take dominance into their own hands, molding it into something more than just survival. To some, it is a burning need to dominate another.

To others, it's the need to be dominated.

Riku Mizawa was a known player, a boy who always got what he wanted from anyone he wanted it from. His list of relationships was a mile long. He was admired by all, loved by many, and intimate with everyone. Gender held no distinction to him, and he had no qualms about sleeping with even his best friends.

It wasn't as if he were an asshole though. He was a polite boy, always said please and thank you, always helped people in trouble…he was the kind of boy who could make a scoutmaster cry in joy. He was charming to say the least.

But there was one, only one person, whom he could not stand.

And that would be Axel.

If Riku were the jealous type, he'd be jealous of Axel. Axel had all the looks, all the words, and all the cash to make anyone swoon. In fact, he was the only thing even close to competition for Riku in the small community of Destiny Islands. Though the stunning red-head had had his share of lovers, he'd never come close to Riku's status. But it was just the idea that anyone would have the gall to encroach on his game that set the silver-haired boy off.

It was a Monday day when the contest started. Really it was Axel who instigated it, as he was the who first broke the rules. The most sacred of all rules. The one thing that no one, no one, and I repeat, no one, should ever do.

He tried to hit on Riku.

Riku was the man, the top of the food chain, the big kahuna, the top dog. He had a fan club in every college, high school, and middle school on the island. Girls and boys alike followed him to make certain that nothing even remotely dangerous ever happened to him. He was a living breathing god among men. And if there is anything a human knows, it's never to come to a god. The god will come to you.

But Axel, either through confidence or stupidity, stepped forward one fateful day, looked Riku directly in the eyes, and had the gall to smirk as he walked by. He didn't smile, he didn't stare at him with adoration, he smirked, as if to say "I'm just as good or better than you."

But that wasn't all. No, as if smirking wasn't bad enough, he'd had the audacity to cop a feel of the god in the hallway later that same afternoon. Riku had been walking along, thoughts of his English test fresh on his mind, when he felt a wandering hand slide over his buttocks. Immediately he had turned, only to find Axel smirking at him once more.

Under normal circumstances he'd have ignored the rebellious act and allowed his fan club to take care of it. But for some reason, he felt his face flush with fresh blood. As his cheeks lit up, he turned, head down, and ducked into the nearest bathroom. Thoughts of the red-head replaced those of his test in a flash, and suddenly he wasn't so sure of himself. Had he really slipped so far as to concede to his only opponent through a simple touch?

Sighing, he shook his head in annoyance. Of course not. He, Riku Mizawa, was a god. He was on a higher level than that boy. He couldn't let his thoughts become muddled over such an idiot. He'd allow his fan club to deal out punishment accordingly.

When he was certain that his composure was replaced, Riku continued with his life. There were no more instances with Axel for the rest of the day.

The next day however, was much worse.

Apparently, the red head had acquired a sizable fan club of his own, one that managed to keep Riku's fans away from him. Like bodyguards they protected him, keeping him safe from the various forms of torture and punishment that Riku's club devised. They even went so far as to fight off the rabid dogs. Yes, Axel was one lucky bastard. And he was a lucky bastard who knew how to push his luck.

The two boys had the same science class, something that Riku was not aware of until he caught the older boy staring at him during the end of class. Immediately the teacher's voice was blocked from the god's hearing as blood began to pound in his ears. Why was he so nervous? Granted the stare Axel was directing at him was one of lust, but it was not as if the older boy was about to pounce on him. In actuality, Riku had seen that look on countless occasions from his admirers. The only real difference was that none of his admirers had ever held that gaze when they knew they were being watched.

The bell rang, sending everyone to their next class. Riku stayed where he was, transfixed by those luminous green eyes. When the room had cleared out and the teacher too had left, Riku found himself alone with the pyromaniac, staring back with what he hoped was disdain.

They said nothing to each other for what seemed like hours. The silence weighed in on Riku like a fog, clouding his thoughts. Finally, when he could stand it no longer, he opened his mouth to speak.

But Axel beat him to it. Before Riku could get out a word, Axel smiled, and said, "Nice weather we're having."

Riku's world rocked and suddenly he felt very nervous. This was unlike him in that, he was never nervous. He never acted this way. He was never the one to swoon. But at that exact moment he felt something akin to indigestion take hold of his stomach, and he knew that he had lost. Angrily he turned away, grabbed his books, and left the room, leaving Axel alone.

These things happened again and again, over the course of months. Before long, the sliver haired teen had become a wreck, unsure of his own abilities. Images of his red-headed rival tore his brain apart at night and haunted his mind during the day. Continuing harassment was the bane of his existence until he became obsessed, like a madman, with beating this boy who blocked his every move.

In reality, this competition that was tearing Riku apart from the inside didn't even exist for Axel. In fact, the red-haired pyro barely even bothered to think of Riku unless he were in close proximity to him. He didn't really care that Riku was a god, he didn't really care that the boy's fan club was larger than his, or that he was higher on the food chain. He didn't notice the death glares he received on a daily basis, or the way Riku's neck muscles would tighten in panic when he came close. Axel was completely oblivious.

That is, until Riku finally snapped.

"Who the fuck do you think you are?" Riku hissed, pinning the older boy to a locker. It was after school, and the only people in the building were the janitors. This was the perfect time to confront him.

Axel raised an eyebrow and gently pulled Riku's hands from his jacket. "Is something wrong?" he asked sympathetically. "You seem a little high strung."

"High strung?" Riku growled, then louder, "High strung? You ass! You've been tormenting me for weeks! Months even! Just who the hell do you think you are that you can just come onto me like that?!"

Axel smiled and shrugged. Every one of his actions seemed cool, under control. Much like Riku's original state. But right now, Riku was anything but under control. He was upset, angry, confused, and more than a little hurt that Axel seemed to not understand what he was going through.

"I can't help it if you're in love with me…" Axel said softly, staring Riku in the eyes with that same predatory look Riku had seen before.

Riku backed up, panic rising in this throat. "I-in….love with you?"

That smile stayed on Axle's lips. His lips were quirked upwards, almost in a smirk. He was doing it again. He was coming onto him again.

"I don't fall in love…" Riku hissed. This much he knew to be true. He'd slept with countless individuals. He'd felt mild attractions to various ones, such as Kairi, or Sora, but he'd never felt love. He was a god; gods do not fall in love.

Axel walked slowly around Riku, in a circle, as if sizing him up. "Really…." he said, coming in close. "You could have fooled me."

Riku was painfully aware of how close Axel was to him. Had he wanted to , he could have reached out slowly and touched the toned muscles of Axle's abs. It would have been so easy to stand on his toes, reach up, and kiss him gently. It would have been so easy, if only Riku's mind would permit it.

"I'm not in love with you…" Riku growled again, taking a step back form the older man. He was shocked when he felt his back hit cool steel. They had switched positions. Now it was Axel pinning Riku to the lockers. Only Axel wasn't using his hands, just his eyes.

Axel's hand came out slowly to rest flat on the locker by Riku's head. He moved closer, until his body was pressing against Riku's, until the younger boy could feel the fast beat of his heart, the rise and fall of his chest, the heat of his breath. Sweat poured out of Riku in rivers and his heart hammered against his ribs, begging to be released from its prison. The pure, utter power being emitted by the older man was suffocating.

They locked eyes for what seemed like an eternity, but it was Riku who finally looked away. He turned his head to the side, letting his aqua eyes wander over Axel's gloved hand. He couldn't look him in the eyes, he just couldn't.

Taking the submission as an invite, Axel leaned forward, and left a soft kiss on the younger boy's neck.

Riku gasped and closed his eyes, his body shaking in uncontrollable spasms. He suddenly had a powerful urge to pull the older boy closer, to feel his body cover his own. He suddenly had the desire to let this boy, this person whom he could not stand in the least, have complete and absolute control over him.

The feeling was strange, foreign, and frightening to Riku. He had always been the dominant one in any relationship he'd had. He'd always had absolute control over every aspect of his life.

Every aspect, except for Axel.

As much as he hated to admit it, Axel was his equal in every way. The feeling of Axel's body pressing his into the metal of the locker frightened him yes, but it also thrilled him. The evidence of that thrill was rising quickly as a fire in the pit of his stomach, spreading to his groin and every other part of his body. A blush rose in his cheeks, and once again, Riku was aware that he had lost.

But for the first time, he wasn't so sure he cared.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, I understand this might be an odd concept, and I'm not about to explain my reasons for writing this (besides the bunniez)

Riku's being dominated, and he loves it. Though he wont admit it to himself. Say yay to yaoi and Riku's ukeness!

Riku: I DO NOT like to be dominated

Axel: (comes up behind him and wraps his arms around him, then nibbles on his ear)

Riku: (melts into Axel's arms, moans)

Koji: You were saying?….

Anyways, Please leave a review. I'm trying hard to think of a threat, so I'll just put it this way, do it, or the bunniez die! (holds up shotgun)
