… … … Chapter 1 … … …

Outside in a wide open area where as a boy of sixteen laid on a white and red checkered picnic blanket. This boy wears grey pants, a yellow shirt and a navy jacket. The boy had long raven hair tied back in a low ponytail and on his head he wore a brown striped navy bandanna.

The boy rolled over onto his stomach as he continued to read his novel. It was a cloudless day with the sun shinning in the sky above him. The glorious day had lured him and his friends as well as his brother to the park.

The boy with the name of Kouji Minamoto closed his book and put on his sunglasses and looked around. There were children running around playing tag and hide and seek and a pair of lovers walking fingers entwined within each others hand whispering sweet words to each other.

It was all starting to get to Kouji as he turned to look at his brother Kouichi and Tomoki and started to ask "hey guys do you-"

He cut himself of when he saw his brother was dangling a strawberry dipped in melted chocolate over Tomoki's mouth.

"Forget it" Kouji said as he looked away as Tomoki bit into the strawberry.

"Hey guys" Izumi said to get their attention, "I thought you two agreed to be less like a couple today." Since her own love Junpei just happened to wonder of at the moment so she decided to remind the two.

The three of them looked at Kouji, there expressions of guilt while Kouji felt an irritated blush rise to his cheeks.

"You don't have to tip toe around me just because I don't have someone special in my life yet" Kouji reasoned.

"No she's right little bro." Kouichi said as he moved away from Tomoki a little.

"No don't mind me" Kouji yet again tried to reason as he re opened his book and forced himself to try and concentrate on the words in front of him.

Kouji soon heard giggling so he turned away from his book to find Tomoki on his brother's lap and was gently nibbling at Kouichi's neck and that Kouichi was the source of the giggling. Izumi rolled her forest green eyes at the two while Kouji had an eyebrow raised.

Izumi was the one who set them up regardless of their age differences the two made a nice couple.

As a group the five could accomplish anything… well anything besides someone for Kouji to love.

"There you are" Izumi stated with a giddiness in her voice so Kouji assumed that Junpei has come back.

"For you my lady" Junpei said as he handed Izumi a bunch of lilies.

"Thanks sweetie" Izumi said brightly.

"So what did I miss" Junpei asked thoughtfully.

"Nothing besides my extreme lack of someone to love" Kouji answered sarcastically.

"Oh" Junpei said his face creasing into an apologetic frown. "Anything I can do?"

"Hmm… not really unless you can set me up with someone" Kouji responded sitting on his knees.

Junpei shot a wary look to Izumi as she looked away looking uncomfortable a sign that she would at the moment would rather not get into the topic at hand.

"Well–"

"Never mind, I might as well wait for the right person for me." Kouji sighed as Izumi started to take out the food that she brought along with her in the picnic basket she carried.

A soccer ball soon came flying towards the five on the picnic blanket and Kouji yelled "duck" and he felt his hair being ruffled a bit as the ball flew past his head. He looked up and noticed Junpei had not been so lucky since he didn't duck quickly enough so the soccer ball hit him square in the face. The five soon heard running footsteps heading towards their direction. When the two people got closer Kouji was able to make out what the older one said.

"Gee, Shinya, I told you not to kick the ball to hard" The elder scold the younger old.

"Sorry onii chan"

"Hey don't apologize to me" the elder left the sentence and walked up to the group on the picnic blanket.

"Hey guys, umm sorry about that, Shinya didn't mean it well it was an accident" the elder said.

"Nah… I'm fine, and apology accepted, anyway I'm Junpei"

"Hi I'm Izumi, Junpei's my boyfriend"

The elder boy nodded his head. Kouji looked over the elder boy and somehow felt drawn to him with his chocolate brown eyes. The boy had a tan complexion, with brown hair with a hat and goggles on top of his head. He wore a yellow short sleeved shirt with a red over shirt and green cargo pants. Kouji was knocked out of his trance when his brother was introducing himself.

"Hello I'm Kouichi and this is Tomoki"

"Hi" Tomoki said.

The boy said "Hiya, my name is Takuya and this is my brother Shinya."

Takuya then looked over to Kouji and asked "what's your name?"

"Huh? Oh my name is Kouji"

"Hmm… Kouji" Kouji heard Takuya mutter.

"Oh um Kouichi is it, umm are you and Tomoki you know together?"

Kouichi and Tomoki both blush and Tomoki stuttered "Y- yeah"

"You don't a problem with it do you?" Kouichi questioned

"Nope, I'm happy for you two and I can tell Izumi and Junpei are a couple by how close they are sitting."

Both Izumi and Junpei blush bright red at the statement.

Takuya then turned to Kouji 'why do I feel all happy or happier just now, he looks cute… argh I did not just think that about Kouji, I mean I only just met the guy… sigh' "Kouji do you have someone special in your life?"

"No, not yet anyway" Kouji said with a sigh.
