A.N: Yo, HRA here -giggles nervously- Sooo…miss me yet? Want to kill me yet? I'm awful, I know…my laptop's been dead since my daddy left back in April, and I have horrid paranoia typing things like this fic (and Child's Innocence) on the family computer. …For obvious reasons. –coughfamilycough- But anyways, daddy's back, he's working on my computer and this is my brother's old laptop which has been temporarily leased to me. Soooo…here's something of a groveling until I can get back onto Child's Innocence.

Disclaimer: Ok. So. I've been watching Saw for the past three days. It inspired…interesting things to say the least. It gives me a chance to torture Fuji, too. We all love that, neh minna? Alright then, the usual disclaimer. PoT not mine. If it were mine…err…well, I don't know. –ponder- it'd probably be chaotic. ….More chaotic.


Fuji knew he had weird dreams sometimes. It came with being in a family with strong empathy and sixth senses. It also came with being a sadist. Weird dreams, to him, were often hazy when he woke up. Things he could hardly remember, and other times wouldn't even remember having. He would just wake up with an awful knot in his stomach, or wake up screaming. He'd even woken up coughing up blood once or twice, or suffering from an asphyxiation attack. Those were the days his sister wouldn't even come with five feet of his room because his aura scared her so badly. Yuuta, luckily, was often away at the St. Rudolph dorms when the worst attacks happened. Also luckily, he'd never had an attack at Tezuka's house or around the captain. He would often stay over, sometimes with Tezuka at his house instead, for late studying, though both knew they didn't need it, his boyfriend's favourite saying of 'yudan sezu ni ikou' was often their cover up for getting the night to themselves.

At first, he'd thought it was just luck. The first night Tezuka spent the night after they'd started going out, he'd just about had a panic attack while he was still awake from the fear of 'what if he finds out…?' or 'what if I hurt him?' and kept coming back to haunt him each time Tezuka came over. While it was rare, there were times when he would lash out in his sleep. The first time, he'd hurt himself. The second time he'd cut his sister across the face. The third…he had almost blinded his best friend completely. He still couldn't look Saeki in the eye without feeling guilty, despite constant reassurance. He didn't want the fourth to be Tezuka.

Oddly, though, the dreams never even attempted to threaten him at his boyfriend's house. He hadn't woken up once in terror…even when he knew he was scheduled for a fit. Over the years he had tracked his dreams to the exact dates so he knew when he needed to be strapped to his bed and when he needed to be close to his sister. It happened the third weekend of each month…that was the system. It had been since the nightmares began. Out of curiosity, after avoiding a few on the edge of the nightmare days, he'd tried staying the weekend of nightmares at Tezuka's house…and had come out completely unscathed without a single nightmare. He tested the theory repetitively. Each time, he had woken as he'd fallen asleep, without only thoughts of pleasantly fluffy dreams in his mind. Soon he had begun to completely ignore his calendar, and found himself at Tezuka's house every weekend; to the point he'd almost forgotten he had ever had nightmares. To the point he began giving his sister an odd stare whenever she picked him up.

This weekend would be different though.

"Fuji."

The tensai promptly ignored his name, continuing to work with an ever innocent smile.

"…Fuji."

Nu-uh, Kunimitsu. Fuji giggled to himself mentally and merely continued.

"…Syuusuke."

"Yesss?" He finally turned with a pleasant smile and satisfied giggle. Tezuka was glaring down at him…or was attempting to. He soon gave in with a sigh, putting a hand to his face, "Do you enjoy that?"

"You have to ask?" Fuji actually laughed then, pulling the hand away and giving his boyfriend a quick kiss, "Is Kuni-kun sick? Does he need special treatment?"

"Don't you dare." The other warned, though Fuji just giggled once more. The captain finally sighed and came right out with what he'd wanted to say, "My parents are having company this weekend. They wanted us to move the sleepover to your house."

"Oh. If that's all then, I'll tell kaa-san when we get home!"

"…Telling you in advance hints that I want you to call and get approval, Fu--…Syuusuke." He'd almost gone back to using his last name and had received a violent glare. His petite boyfriend scared him sometimes.

"Don't be so sour, Kuni'." Fuji's smile turned serene as he cuddled up to the other, "Kaa-san loves you. She won't mind"

They left it at that as the rest of the team came into the clubhouse, none noticing how close their captain and tensai had been. Fuji didn't care though; he was too busy being ecstatic about the coming weekend to care. His family, actually, was going out of town. He didn't find it necessary to tell Tezuka that little detail just yet though. It would ruin the surprise after all.
