Chapter 1: The Game.
Fuji Syuusuke, third year student of Tokyo University majoring Photography. One month ago his daily live was perfect, until that day had changed everything. Today marked the first month after that accident.. Since then it became Fuji's routine to visit the hospital- in the morning before went to college and in the afternoon- sometimes even evening- after college ended.
"Fuji, are you going to visit him again?"
"Ehm. I can't leave him alone Oishi." Fuji smiled.
"How is he? Last time I heard no one can visit except his family."
"He's still unconscious, but the doctor said his condition is stable now. However, he's still in the ICU so only his family can visit him." Fuji checked his wristwatch. "Oh, I must to go now. See you tomorrow Oishi." He turned around and left but he stopped when heard Oishi calling him.
"Fuji, don't give up, he'll be fine. He's tough, you know that." Oishi smiled to encourage his friend.
"Arigato Oishi, I won't give him up, I'll do anything for him." Fuji left hurriedly.
Oishi watched the former Seigaku Tensai leave. Fuji Syuusuke and his boyfriend, everyone knew them, and everyone admired them. Oishi knew Fuji's sacrifice to be with the guy. Fuji waited almost four years for the answer. Ex Seigaku regulars witnessed the day when the one Fuji gave his heart to finally said 'yes'. They all celebrated it at Kawamura's Sushi Restaurant. Fuji's smile when his lover around was the sincerest and Oishi really hoped that one day, he will see that smile again.

"Fate… It's already been a month, when will he awake?" A black haired girl with wings asked angrily.
"Ah… It's you Love. Come on don't ruin the game. Soon, I promise, okay?" A blonde haired girl looked at her and continued reading.
"It's not fair, doing that to my favorite couple." She sighed.
"So… you want to forfeit? It's okay for me, if you admit your defeat." Fate just smirked.
"NO WAY, Who said I forfeit? I will win this game!" She shouted.
'My greatest pairing, she ruined everything' Love mumbled. 'How could I have agreed to follow this game?'
---
"Fate, look at them, they are the most perfect pairing I've ever had. What do you think?" Love said proudly showing the pairing that she noticed from an antique oval mirror.
"Who are they? Why were they so special to you?"
"Fuji Syuusuke and his lover. I like seeing them together." She flew happily.
"Oh. Hey, Love…Isn't it time to prepare a gift?"
"You're right, it's almost time. I must prepare a gift for them. What should I give, I wonder?" She sat back and thought seriously. "Fate, do you have any suggestion?"
Fate just smiled, a mysterious smile, and when Love saw it she felt something bad would happen.
"What are you thinking, Fate? Don't tell me you…"
"Ah… you really know me too well Love, want to join?" The blonde girl smiled happily.
"NO, NO, NO!" She said angrily.
"So… The 1253rd game Love surrendered without fight, such a loser."
"WHO SAID I LOST?"
"You refused it so you lost. I won…, yeah." Fate flied and sang happily. "I lead two points."
"I'll play, I won't let you win this game."
"Really? Won't you be disappointed if I ruined your perfect couple?" She smirked.
"I won't and I'll win for sure." Love answer arrogantly.
"So… let the game…"
"Wait. What are you planning this time?"
"Oh, that, come I'll tell you." Fate just smiled innocently.
Love flew closer to Fate and listened carefully. "What??? That's too cruel Fate!"
"Ah, so you want to forfeit?"
"Iya da! Ok, then what is the price?"
"I won't tell you until you win." Fate winked.
"Not fair… Ok but every time their love wins, his lover will get something in return."
"Ehm… Ok then in return we mustn't help them."
"Fate… You are so cruel." She cried.
"Play or not?"
"I'll play."
"So… let the game begin." She flipped her finger and a white light came out towards the happy couple.

'It all is this blonde haired girl fault.'
"Ne, Love… this is where the real game will begin."

Fuji exhaled a few times before entering the room.
"Hi." He greeted when he reached beside the bed. He touched his lover cheek and kissed his lips.
"How are you feeling today?" "You know it's a beautiful sunny day but I feel nothing without you around." He looked at his lover affectionately.
Fuji caressed the soft hair. Fuji knew that sometimes words weren't enough. His touch and his caress conveyed his feelings better. Few minutes passed when he suddenly felt his lover's finger were moving. Fuji opened his blue eyes, blinked a few times to make sure that he wasn't dreaming. Then he saw the guy slowly opened his eyes.
Fuji's eyes widened. He pressed the call button hurriedly. "Doctor! He's awake! He's awake!" He almost shouted.
"Where am I?"
The door opened before Fuji could answer him.
"Please, wait outside for a while." The nurse gently beckoned Fuji to exit the room first and closed the door.
---000oo000---
Fuji waited more than five minutes before the doctor and the nurse came out.
"How is he doctor? Can I go inside?"
"He's fine. You can see him. We will call his family." The doctor smiled reassuringly to Fuji.
"Thank you, Doctor."
Fuji bowed before the doctor turned to leave. With shaking hands, he turned to knob and opened the door. He tried to compose himself as he walked into the room.
"Hi, there… How's your feeling?" Fuji opened his eyes as he walked towards the one he loved and smiling sincerely.
"Fine, thank you." The guy looked at him and timidly smiled back.
"I'm… really glad you're awake, I was starting to think you will never." Fuji hugged him, his voice faltering.
He missed the guy voice, he missed the way he looked at him, and he missed everything. 'Thank God.'
"I missed you." Fuji said softly. His heart was filled with so much happiness.
Until words he never would've expected came out.
"A… Arigato, but… do I know you?"
Can you guess who Fuji's lover is?
Hate it or like it? ;p
Anyway… reviews please, just tell me what is in your mind. I'll be grateful if you told me ;p
Enjoy your read.
