NEVER AGAIN

Chapter 1:

Three

His hand came up one more time to strike the face of his "lover", the same old shit just on a different night.

It didn't make since why he had to hit him over and over just to do it. Shuichi never did any thing to hurt Yuki on purpose, he loves him too much to do so. There was so much going through Shuichi's mind…."Why is he so mean to me…no its because he loves me…he has to do it….its my fault….I hurt him….I didn't listen to him…." But before you know that story you should know this one, lets start at the beginning.

"Baby, food is ready come and get it!" Shuichi was wearing a pink sweater and white sweats. He was standing over a hot plate of Yuki's favorite meal, white rice, fried chicken, hot sauce, and a can of beer. He was glad that Yuki was letting him stay with him. He loves him just so much that he couldn't stand being without Yuki.

"I'm not hungry!" Yuki was in his office writing another love story. Thinking about all the times he was truly in love, maybe once or twice at the most. "I told you I didn't want any thing right now, why did you make me something if I didn't want it?"

"I'm sorry I thought you said you were. Do you want me to put it up?"

"Um, yeah, stupid." Yuki hated being spoken to when he was working. He really hated a lot of stuff, and everyone knew not to push his buttons but the pink haired singer just had to do it. But it was in a cute Shuichi kind of way, but never or less, it was pushing buttons.

"Well I put the plate in the fridge in case you want it later." Shuichi said walking into the office.

"I might. Hey, when are you coming home tomorrow?" Yuki asked looking up from the keyboard.

"I don't know I think around like 10 or 11. Why?" He was walking towards the chair next to Yuki.

"Oh nothing, I just wanted to know. So I could actually get some work done around here without having a damn pest lingering in my mind." Yuki looked over at the empty doorway.

"Oh, well then I guess , goodnight…." Shuichi felt as if he was hit in the face with a wave of depression. He didn't understand how someone so beautiful as Yuki could be so mean at times.

"Yeah well night." Yuki began to smile as the little one walked out of the room with his head hung down as if he was a puppy that was just scolded for peeing on the rug. "Okay its like 9:57, if I go now then I can get something on the home. I wonder if KFC will be open that late? Yeah it should be…"

Shuichi crawled onto the couch, Yuki doesn't like sharing the bed, he tucked himself in the crease of the couch and covered his body up to his neck. "Well I know he seems a bit mean but at least he isn't like all the other assholes out there cheating on the ones they love or hitting them all the time." He was passed out before he even knew it.

Yuki grabbed his keys and coat and headed out to his car. He drove North for about 26 minutes and parked in an apartment parking lot. Walked up to apartment Q3 and knocked on the door. On the third knock a small fitted, brown haired girl opened the door and Yuki walked in.

"Hey baby." Yuki kissed her on the head and smiled.

"What took you so long, I waited for an hour and a half?" She asked with a worried look on her face.

"Well I had a lot of planning to do on my new book and I just got caught up in it. Sorry 'bout that." She believed it, took his hands in hers and pulled him to the bedroom. And when in the doorway she pushed him back a few steps and turned the light on with her right hand and shut the door with her left. Walked towards him and knelt down on her knees in front of him. She unzipped his pants and yanked them down around his feet. She then slowly pulled down his boxers. The next thing Yuki knew he was being sucked like a lollipop. He was moving his hands all over her hair getting stuck in some knots here and there. Her mouth was like a vacuum on his hard member. He didn't think he could hold it in for very long.

"Mmmmmhhhhhh! Go faster baby, go faster. I'm almost there." Yuki was about to explode. "Mmmmhhh!" And on the last note Yuki did in fact explode, all over her mouth.

"Yumm! Haha, you are just so cute when you do that." She looked up at Yuki's eyes looking down at her.

"Shut up, no I'm not. Stop smiling at me like that." Yuki hated being called cute, well that's what he made the world think, but on the inside he really loved it.

"Well are you staying the night tonight?" She asked as she was getting off the floor.

"No I cant tonight, I have to be at the office early in the morning and it would just be easier if I stayed at my place. But maybe tomorrow I can?" It was lie after lie for Yuki.

"I guess it would be easier for you. But its like I never get to see you any more." She trust him too much to think he had someone living with him.

"Well its like 11:00, I think I should go back to my place now. You know it takes a while to get back." Every time Yuki was about to leave he had make up some lie she would buy so he could get out without a fight.

"Okay hun, well I guess you should go. Bye baby." She was opening the bedroom door by the time he started to pull up his pants.

"Are you ganna be okay?" Yuki had his pants on his waste, still unbuttoned, just hanging there.

"Yeah, I'll be fine, I'm just a lil sleepy, its bedtime." She was leaning on the couch in the living room looking at him leaning on the bedroom doorframe.

"Okay bye baby, I love you." Yuki kissed her lips and walked out the door leaving it open after him, knowing she would shut it after he was down the stairs. Yuki got in his car checked his phone, nothing. He started the car and pulled out of the parking lot and drove South for 30 minutes before arriving at KFC. He ordered a number 2 and 5 with extra hot sauce. And drove another 16 minutes to home. When he got inside Shuichi was still past out on the couch, so he went to his bedroom and ate his food. Then climbed into bed, turned on the TV and fell asleep.

In the morning Yuki woke up to Shuichi playing with his hair. Yuki shot up and pushed Shuichi's hand off his head.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Yuki was awake and for not even 1 minute and he was already yelling at Shuichi.

"Sorry I just love your hair, its so soft and pretty. And I couldn't keep my hands off you, you are so sexy in the morning." Sitting on the floor next to the bed, Shuichi folded his arms on the side.

"I told you not to wake me, you damn brat." Yuki rolled over and covered his face with the blanket. "Get out." pointing toward the door.

"Okay well I'm going to rehearsal I'll be home at like 10 or 11. K?" Shuichi walked out the door and shut it behind him. But then went back into the room after thinking he saw something but had to make sure. He was right, it was two things of KFC. "Ahhhh that asswipe! He went out and got KFC instead of eating what I made him!" He again closed the door and stormed out of the condo. He walked all the way down to his bike and then remembered he forgot his notepad on the table. He ran back up to the condo and opened the door and saw Yuki on the phone.

"….no he doesn't know about you. He isn't that smart hhuunnn…..ummm hey let me call you back." Yuki looked at the shocked singer and put the phone down. "Why are you still here? I thought you left?" Yuki turned to walk away when Shuichi tugged on his arm.

"Who…who was that…on the phone?" Shuichi looked like he was about to tear up, but he held it in and gave Yuki a chance to explain himself.

"Oh my god do you have to know everything about me?" Yuki turned back and wiped Shuichi's hand off his arm.

"Well since there is a lot I don't know about you then that would be a no. But when I come home and hear you say…what you just said, yes I would like to know who that was?" Shuichi took a step back from Yuki.

"Fine! Do you want the truth or some bullshit lie to make you stay in love with me?" Yuki looked at Shuichi as one tear fell from his cheek.

"Wha…what…do you mean? Of course I want the truth. But why would you even ask me that kind of question?" Shuichi was confused and lost and he didn't know what to think. "Yuki isn't like the other assholes in the world. He loves me. He just has a weird way of showing it. He wouldn't cheat on me…would he?"

"That was my girlfriend. I go over to house any night that I make you feel so bad you go to bed early. And then on the way home I get KFC. Then I come home to you sleeping on the couch. I go to my room eat then go to sleep. Is there any thing more you would like to know?" Yuki was starting to walk toward Shuichi as more and more tears fell from the lost lover's face.

"Whh….why would you do that to me? How could you do something like that to me? I LOVE YOU I GAVE YOU ALL I HAD TO GIVE YOU!" Shuichi could barely talk so instead he screamed it out. He couldn't control it. He knew something was up with Yuki , he just kept telling himself that Yuki had work. Now it all made sense, all the times that Shuichi woke up in mid-dream and found Yuki's bed empty. Any night that Yuki said he was at the office and had to stay late because there was something important that he has to take care of. Well that was true, guess the other person was important to Yuki. More important then Shuichi.

"Why cant you add it all together. Wow you really are that stupid aren't you? I don't really love you like you want me to. I'm not that kind of person you should know this if you were my lover like you said you were, then why don't you know that I was never ganna love you like that? You were just a sex toy. I don't care about you, never did never will." Yuki was leaning on the wall next to Shuichi, arms and legs crossed. Looking down at the floor

"Yu..Yuki…why? What did I ever do to you? Did I ever hurt you in any way?" Shuichi was face in knees on the floor. He was rocking back and forth next to Yuki's feet. "Did you ever think I cheated on you?"

"Oh hell no I know you would never do that to anyone. You are just such a damn brat, you are just an eye sore and I cant stand to look at you all the time. You just need to leave. NOW! GET THE HELL OUT!" Yuki pointed at the front door. Looking down at the heart broken Shuichi, he kicked him in the leg and Shuichi fell on his side. "GET THE HELL OUT!" He kicked him one more time on the ass. "GET OUT OF MY LIFE! GET THE FUCK OUT! Kicked him in the stomach and then on the arm. "DO I HAVE TO SAY IT AGAIN?" On the arm one more time, then an the leg and one in the face. "I HATE YOU! GET OUT!" And then spit on his chest.

"Owww…my god stop. Yuki stop please stop. Don't." Shuichi was crying and gasping and trying to crawl away. "No more please stop." Shuichi didn't know what to do he was in shock. He never thought in a million years Yuki would ever hit him.

"Get out…go! I never want to see your face ever again." Yuki was starting to calm down a little but then again why was he the one that was upset? "Get out now."

"Oooo…okay I will." Shuichi tried to stand but fell back to the hard floor. "Get my phone." Shuichi pointed to his bag on the other side of the floor, next to the couch. It must have slid over there when Yuki kicked Shuichi the first time.

"Get it yourself." Yuki started to walk away and felt a pull on his ankle.

"Please, I cant move?" Shuichi had blood coming out of his nose when he glanced up at Yuki.

"Fine…here. Now get out." Yuki through the bag at Shuichi and it hit him in the back.

"I….will…" Shuichi reached into the bag and felt around for his phone. He found it and pulled it out slowly. His flipped it open and saw that Hiro had called. He pushed the green button and it called back. Two rings later Hiro picked up.

"Shu were are you? Rehearsal stared like 30 minutes ago? Shu you there?" Hiro waited a few seconds. "Shuichi are you okay?"

"Come and get me." Shuichi said in such a faint voice Hiro could barely understand him.

"Where are you Shu? What happened? I'm coming. Where are you?" Hiro was getting really worried.

"Yuki's…." The phone hung up on Hiro.

"Who is coming to get you?" Yuki asked from the bedroom.

"Hiro." Shuichi was still talking in a faint voice.

"Oh. That red headed bastard. Why him?"

"Because he cares about me, unlike you." Shuichi said a bit louder.

"Haha. Oh so you think he likes you?" Yuki was kind of mocking Shuichi.

"No its not like that. He is like my brother." Shuichi went back into the faint voice.

"Yeah right. You guys are like butt buddies." Yuki was laughing and laughing and laughing.

"I just have one question?" Shuichi began to sit up against the wall still holding his sides.

"Yeah what is it?" Yuki stopped laughing.

"Who is it?" Shuichi knew this question could possibly get the shit kicked out of him again but he had to know.

"Well it's a girl…"

"What the hell? A girl…you cheated on me with a girl?" Shuichi was again in shock, when then there was a big bang on the door. And then it hit the wall and Hiro ran in.

"WHERE IS HE YOU FUCKER!" Hiro saw Yuki before he saw Shuichi on the wall.

"There…" Yuki pointed to the wall behind Hiro. "Right there, dumb ass. You passed him." Yuki sort of smiled at Hiro. Hiro looked over his shoulder and saw Shuichi and looked back at Yuki and flipped him off.

"Oh yeah I'm the dumb ass? What the hell did you do to him?" Hiro turned around and tried to help Shuichi up, but he could barely stand.

"Oh nothing, I think he fell or something." Yuki walked towards the fridge and grabbed a bear from the door.

"Yeah and if that's so, why didn't you help him? Why am I the one he called if you were already here?" Hiro was standing bent over to pick up Shuichi like picking up a baby from its crib.

"I don't know. Not my problem. Why don't you ask him, if you want to know so bad." Yuki came back and sat on the couch. Legs up on the table and grabbed the remote from the arm and turned the TV on. Blocking out Hero coursing at him under his breath.

"You have some serious problems you fucking bastard." Hiro said one last time before getting Shuichi in the right position in his arms. Shuichi was now past all the way out on Hiro.

"Get the hell out of my house. You don't come in here and then not even know what the hell happened. GET OUT!" Yuki stood up and through the remote at Hiro. "GET OUT YOU FUCKER THIS IS MY HOUSE!" Yuki then threw his beer at the door.

"Oh we are and don't think you are getting away with this. When he wakes up you know he will tell me what happened and I will be back for your ass. I told you never to hurt him and now you have taken way too far.

"I'm not scarred of your bitch ass." Yuki sat back down on the couch.

"Come on Shuichi. Its okay I got you now." Hiro was cradling Shuichi and rubbing his leg. But he had to be careful because if he held him too tight Shuichi would move and Hiro didn't want to drop him. They got to Hiro's car and Hero but Shuichi in the back seat and took a cover from the trunk and put it over him. Then climbed into the front seat started the car and pressed on the gas as hard as he could. "You'll be okay Shu, its ganna be okay." Hiro got on the highway and then called Mr. K.

"Hey Hiro where are you?" K's voice low and rough.

"I had to get Shu from that bastard's place. I'm pretty sure he beat the shit out' a him. I'm ganna drop by my place and keep him there. I'll call you if he wants me to stay."

"Okay, I hope he'll be fine. How bad is it?" Mr. K spoke with more clarity this time.

"Its really bad. Blood and stuff on his face." Hiro turned right onto a smaller road.

"Oh damn. Well call me if you are ganna stay. K, bye." Mr. K hung up the phone before Hero had the chance to respond.

"K, shu we're here. You up yet?" Hiro put the car in park and looked back at Shuichi still out in the back seat.

"Yeah I'm up. Where am I?" Shuichi spoke with caution.

"My place, Shu. I'm keeping you here. So do you want me to stay with you instead of going to rehearsal?" Hiro got out of the car and walked over to the passenger side and opened the back door. "Come on."

"If you want you can stay. You don't have to. If they need you there then go." Shuichi wrapped his arm around Hiro's neck and slipped out of the back.

"No if you need me then the band can wait. You mean more to me, Shu." Hiro smiled in kind of a flirting way. But he always did that to Shuichi, so he didn't think anything of it.

"Thanks Hiro. How can I ever repay you for everything you do for me?" Shuichi could walk on his own…sort of. He still had his arm wrapped around Hiro's neck.

"Well as long as you are my friend that's all I need. I know you would do the same for me if I were in your shoes." Hiro led the way up to his apartment.

"Yeah I would. I love you Hiro, I would do anything for you." Shuichi leaned on the wall as Hero was digging through his pockets searching for his keys.

"I love you too Shu. And I think I have exceeded on showing you that I would do anything for you. Haha." Hiro found his keys in his back left pocket and unlocked the door.

"Haha. I know. If there was a way I could pay you back, I would in a heart beat. You know that right?" Shuichi walked in and sat on the couch.

"I told you, you owe me nothing Shu. I care too much for you to just to pay me back, just because I help you. That wouldn't be right. Now would it?" Hiro came by and sat next to him on the couch. Put his right arm over the back of it and put his left hand on Shuichi's leg.

"Haha if you say so." Shuichi sounded a lot better now. And he put his head on Hiro's chest and Hero put his left arm on Shuichi right arm and kissed the top of his head.
