He still remembered that day…

He himself couldn't believe he was considering on joining Glittering Crux as the Emperor. His reason? The previous Head said that Takuto was fighting for the South Maiden…so that she would be able to fulfill her dream of going outside the island. But by accomplishing that, Wako would fall for Takuto completely, which made Sugata quite jealous even though he doesn't say or portray it out.

"Then just defeat Tauburn…and make that person yours."

Sugata just glared at him yet surprised on how the guy knew of his motives. But did he know which one?

"I don't know what you're talking about." Sugata stares off to the sunset which was again being painted by the man near him sitting on the bench.

The man dipped his brush on two colors and stroked on the canvas. "Life is quite unexpected you know and so are desires…always changing…yet they still become powerful libidos…" He stopped for a while to stare at the sunset and then at the blue teen. "…you yourself are holding a powerful libido…but I wonder…" He went back to his painting. "…when you get what you desire, will your libido get stronger or will it falter?"

That was then…and he made his choice to sacrifice himself for the two people that were important to him. But now…his heart was captured by the voice that wanted him back…by that person who risked everything even the world just to save him.


"Sugata. Good morning!" Takuto gave a cheerful tone in his greeting. It seemed he stayed here last night.

Sugata just gave a small smile and greeted back. "Good Morning." He turned to the window and peered to the morning sight. Takuto passed through him going to the dining room. "Takuto-kun, since it's still early…do you want to spar with me?" Sugata didn't really expected Takuto to agree, since the guy probably wanted breakfast already.

"Sure!" Takuto turned back beaming a grin.

Sugata smiled back showing his gratitude. To him, Takuto is best with a smile on his face.

Jaguar went to fetch Sugata and Takuto. The first thing that came to mind is that they were sparing…since Sugata did say Takuto needed to get stronger.

"Bochama, Takuto-kun, breakfast is rea-!" Her voice died as she slid the door open.

Takuto was lying on the ground, his clothes in a mess with Sugata looming over him pinning him to the ground. They were both staring at her, surprised of her sudden intrusion.

She seemed surprised at first but quickly become unfazed. "Sorry." She pulled out her cellphone and took a picture. "As long as bochama is the seme, I'm okay with it." After that she slid the door close but called out to them before she walked away. "Please come to breakfast after you're done!"

Takuto was speechless. They got up and fixed their clothes.

"That's why I don't like anything goes sparring." Sugata stated in a matter of scolding yet he couldn't deny that he enjoyed looming over Takuto.

Sugata chuckled as he saw Takuto still blushing. It seems like he knows what his role in that kind of relationship is.

"Naa, Sugata…what's a seme?"

Or maybe not…


They were so busy. There was also the school festival and Wako's nearing departure. The Night Flight drama club was having a meeting in the club room after school.

"Our class is having a cosplay café, right?" Takuto reminded with Sugata and Wako nodding.

"What? Want to dress up as Ginga bishounen?" Sugata joked. Takuto sweat dropped at the comment but chuckled anyway.


"K-KISS SCENE?" Everyone stutteringly asks except Sugata.

"Endou-san, how many times should we remind you that Wako is the South Maiden?" Tiger immediately said.

"Not anymore…" Wako corrected behind her.

Tiger said no more as it became a habit to say.

"But, it isn't about Wako, though…" Sarina held up the part of the script with the kiss scene.

"Sugata-kun, and Takuto-kun?" Wako exclaimed surprisingly. Everyone stared at her because even though she seemed surprise there was a hint of excitement. "You really agreed to that?" She happily asked.

'Hah?' Takuto and Sugata asked inwardly in unison.

"A special bond…that is being torn by love…Freid the calm older brother who had always looked after his half brother, Lucas, a spirited youth…Lucas falling in love with a maiden yet Freid can't live without his brother. It's needed for the story. Sugata-kun is Freid, Takuto-kun is Lucas, and Wako is Janus. I haven't quite finished the screenplay yet but I have most of half of it done."

Takuto raises his hand.

"No complaints, Takuto-kun. Being the pretty boy couple and having a good relationship with each other make you both fit the role."

"But, two brothers…isn't that…" Takuto put his hand down. Wouldn't that be a bad theme…it's called i-i-incest.

Sarina stared down at him. "HALF-brothers! Lucas is a child from a different father and besides Wako seems to be interested in that story." She pointed nonchalantly at said girl who was reading the script and blushing.

He leaned to Sugata. "Nee, Sugata, you're not having a say?" he whispered.

Sugata gave a defeated smile. "No, she's the club president and besides, it's Wako's request."

"That's that! We'll start practicing now." Sarina proclaimed


"Pin his wrists higher!"

Sugata followed suit. One wrist in one hand, he caged the red haired boy between his own body and the wall.

"Then say your lines."

"Do you really think I'll let anything or anyone take you from me?" Sugata said as if he really meant it. His tone made Takuto flinch and his touch and breath made his body shiver. A blush enveloped his face as Sugata stared at him with such…intensity…

"Good! That's the right expression Takuto-kun, now your line."

Takuto opened his mouth to speak but he ended up stuttering in the beginning. "W-What are you saying, Freid? I-It hurts!" Takuto felt that this act was becoming real as Sugata did tighten his grip by the time the line was said.

Sugata lets go, steps back and lets Takuto slide down the wall. Takuto massages his wrists as soon as he lands down on the ground.

A clap called them back to reality. "Okay! That's the end of the scene."

"Can you stand?" Sugata offered his hand. Takuto took it and pulled himself up.

"Thanks."

"That was great." Sarina commented as the others. "Okay that's a wrap. I need some time with Takuto-kun alone for a while."

And with that Sugata, Wako and his maids went home leaving Sarina and Takuto in the room.

"W-What is it that you want to talk about?" Takuto asked politely being a bit nervous.

Sarin stared at him seriously for almost a minute. "How did Sugata-kun's presence feel?"

"E-Eh?" Takuto faintly blushed at the question. "What do you mean?"

"Sugata has this ability in the stage to make co actors act the way their supposed to but I think he himself isn't aware of it. You too in some ways have this."

"I-In some ways…?" Takuto was lost.

"Anyway, even though your acting is easily moved by Sugata-kun's, don't mess up the lines or the names. Express your heart as if it was happening in reality. Make yourself move not by others."

Takuto just kept nodding as he was being lectured by the leader of the club.

"…that's all."

Takuto sighed as he went for the door. That actually took an hour of pointers and lectures.

"Oh and Takuto-kun…" She added lastly stopping Takuto as he opened to door. "…doesn't Sugata seem strange these days?"

"Strange?"

"I thought maybe something happened with Wako and you guys… anything come to mind?"

"No…we hang out as always." He opens the door. "I'm off!"

Sarina watched as Takuto left. Something really felt odd. "Actually, you seem odd lately as well." She felt that something was going to happen.


That night…

Sugata delighted the scene outside his window. The same sky he gazed at with Takuto the other night. From the moon he looked down at his hands…the feeling of pinning Takuto's wrists. He placed his palm to his lips, grazing it slightly together. Despite appearance, Takuto had soft hands and a smooth complexion…only those who had touched him would know…and when a red tint came across, he thought he was going to lose himself for a second but…he composed himself.

He wanted to make sure that Takuto felt the same before making his move…he wouldn't want to drive him away…It's okay…he'll move slowly and carefully.


Next Day…

"So why are we outside again?" Takuto dared to ask as once again they were in the middle of the whole school with the whole school peering to them. Like last time ever member of the club was here.

"We're here to practice." Sarina answered as she warmed up with Wako like last time. "Now stop slacking and do some warm up with Sugata-kun."

"Hai, hai…" He walked to Sugata, who sat on the ground doing stretches. "Yo!" He greeted and Sugata stood up.

"I'm done warming up, so I'll just help you."

"Domo…" Takuto sincerely said his eyes fluttering close as he smiled.

"Everyone wear you microphones before we start." Tsubasa reminded.

"Begin!"

"Freid, I love her! So please…" Takuto pleaded as he closed the door when Wako left.

Sugata clicked his tongue. "Please what…my dear brother? Treat her nicely?" Sarcasm and hate was obvious in his tone.

"Why can't you just accept that I'm not always as childish as you think I'll be? And don't talk about Janus like that!" Takuto reasoned with a louder voice. "I…I love Janus!" He proclaimed with a straight and serious face.

Sugata gave a smirk that gave a lot of people a shiver down their spine. He slowly crept to Takuto.

"F-Freid…?" Every step Sugata took made Takuto also step back. This was until Takuto had his back against the wall and nowhere to go. Sugata went to leaning both hands on the wall caging the boy.

"What if I say I won't let you have her? Hmm…no, more likely…" He grips Takuto's wrists and pins them above his head. "…do you really think I'll let anyone take you from me?"

"E-Eh…" Takuto gives a confused and petrified look as he looks into Sugata. He closes his eyes shut as he struggles to try and break free. "What are you saying, F-Freid? I-It hurts!" Takuto sounded helpless and scared.

Sugata lets him go and just stares at Takuto as the boy slides down the wall, all the while looking at Sugata with a frightened face and grasping his own wrist.

"And end!" Sarina ordered. Sugata gave Takuto a hand to stand up, which he accepted with gratitude. They heard whines and complaints around the school as they got cut off wanting to know more of the story and was being left with a lot of anxiety.

"Why did we do that scene specifically? I thought it was practice but somehow it feels like we're like promoting or something…" Takuto lazily smiled and awed at the cheer of the students.

"It's not like…we are." Sugata assured him. He chuckled at Takuto surprised look.

"That's right! Oh but, part of it was also to practice that scene particularly since it is one of the hardest with you two…Takuto-kun you did a lot better than last time." Sarina comforted the red hair as she started to help the other members clean up the equipment used.

"W-Wait a minute! What do you mean by one of the hardest?...Don't tell me there's…more?" Takuto stuttered as he asked the brunet. He knew he was gonna regret asking.

"Of course. The hardest scene you'll be facing is probably…" She paused as she went over the script in her head. A sudden smile on her sent a chill down Takuto's spine. "…the kiss scene."

Everyone reflexively covered their ears as a lot of girls wailed.

They heard questions like, 'Who is partaking in the kiss?' and, 'I want one with either Sugata-kun or Takuto-kun!'.

'It's BETWEEN BOTH OF US!' Takuto inwardly screamed wanting to disappoint on their excitement of a het kiss…maybe not…Wako seems so interested so why won't the others be? At that thought Takuto grew more depressed. There was no way on backing out on this, was there? It was just a play so…


Yay, finished two chapters in one day! Like me? Review please! Hate? Review but don't flame…

Hahahaha…okay, sorry for laughing for no reason.
