Here's the next chapter of Bento Boxes. Sorry I haven't updated I've been really sick and stressed. I had to take a break from writing so I could try to pass a class that I ended up not passing any way. Good thing I'm in college and can retake the class (chem.). I changed my major though so I really don't need my chemistry class. Damn. I joined a sorority. I've been to hospital and the doctors so many times I can't count. I'm officially cured though.

So I tried doubling the amount of writing. If things don't go hand in hand I'm sorry. I tried. I added a bunch of other characters and some actual drama. Some of which is mostly solved. Oh and Takeshi and Kentaro will take a step into a relationship. I figure I've waited long enough. Ok on with the chapters. By the way if things are confusing or just plain dumb I know some things were written when I was in a bad mood.

I'm glad people think this is fun. Sorry if things are confusing or it really sucks. I didn't really want to edit so I half assed it. 

The Reflecting Moonlight

Takeshi grumbled to himself as he got ready for the party. It was formal and he had to look nice for it. Takeshi sometimes wished that he was as rich as Kentaro. He could then have as many nice clothes that he wanted. Takeshi growled shoving his poor work suit back in the closet. Did he not have anything but work clothes? He could always ask Kentaro for help, but that would be admitting that he needed Kentaro. Sure it was just a suit and even if--, Takeshi stopped those thoughts right then.

"Fine," he thought giving his closet the evil eye as if it were the closets fault. "I'll have to call Kentaro or Eri would kill me."

Takeshi went to his phone and dialed Kentaro's number by heart. Kentaro's voice picked up, "Hello. This is Kentaro."

"Er, Kentaro it's me Takeshi," he replied back.

"Oh Tekepon, how may I be of service," Kentaro's bubbly voice asked.

"Well, you see, I kind of," Takeshi blew the stray hairs out of his face. "I need to borrow a suit."

"Oh I have plenty," Kentaro replied so fast Takeshi thought he must have known this was going to happen. "You're so lucky to have me as a friend. What with you having a stick up your ass all the time I'm not surprised you have nothing for a party. When was the last time you went to a party willingly? Well I'll be over in a few. Bye, Bye darling."

"Never again will I ask him for anything," Takeshi spoke into the phone though nobody was there and eyes glared at the poor phone.

Kentaro was over in record time, meaning an hour drive turned into a ten minute drive. Now how Kentaro didn't get pulled over was a mystery. Takeshi could only hope that he wouldn't feel the need to speed like that on the way to Eri's. Kentaro of course came, literally, skipping into Takeshi's apartment. He had a bag of clothes in his hands that he threw at Takeshi before leaping onto Takeshi's bed.

"Well try on those clothes I've been dying to see you in them," Kentaro giggled madly before sitting up.

Takeshi's voice squeaked rather embarrassingly when he spoke, "You've been buying me clothes?!"

"Of course," Kentaro smiled pulling out an apple. "Does it really matter?"

"Yes, how the hell do you know my size," Takeshi mumbled.

"Tekepon, darling, how many times have I been in the presence of your clothes," Kentaro took a bite out of the apple while Takeshi twitched slightly. "If you must know I looked at your sizes while we were changing after a mission or rather you were in the shower and I had nothing better to do."

Takeshi frowned, "It would only take two seconds to write down my size how can that entertain you for an hour?"

"Do you want to know or is that rhetorical?"

"That would be a rhetorical question now that I think about it."

Kentaro looked at his watch and grinned, "You know if you don't put on those clothes soon we're going to be late."

Takeshi sighed in defeat and turned to go in the bathroom. He took the clothes out cautiously and stared at the suit that Kentaro had gotten him. The pants were black and only slightly tighter then his work pants and he had a pink button down shirt. Wait a pink shirt, what the fuck. Takeshi burst out of the bathroom glaring menacingly at Kentaro who only smiled as if oblivious to the anger that was radiating off of Takeshi at that moment.

"Kentaro, why the fucking hell did you get me a pink shirt," Takeshi practically screamed.

"Tekepon, darling, all the men now wear pink," Kentaro replied getting up and throwing away the apple. "I'll admit I almost got the blue shirt since it would bring out your eyes, but curiosity got the better off me."

"Since when have all the men started wearing pink," Takeshi asked.

"Since, like, four seasons ago," Kentaro sighed acting as if were the end of the world. "Though I'll admit I'm not surprised that you have no idea what's in and what's not considering you have one of the worst fashion sense in the world. Never fear darling I won't let your fashion dilemmas ruin your social life. You're my best friend and I---

Takeshi cut him off, "Ok I get it quit with the melodrama. It's slightly sickening."

Kentaro huffed looked at Takeshi for a moment then frowned, "Why aren't you dressed yet we have to leave soon."

"Yeah, yeah," Takeshi grumbled and went back into the bathroom and changed.

"I should have gotten tighter pants," Kentaro grumbled when Takeshi came out. "I had a feeling you'd really freak out though."

Takeshi grabbed his keys and marched toward the door, "Let's go Kentaro."

The drive to Eri's was for Takeshi the worst experience he had had in awhile. By the end he was surprised they hadn't killed someone, crashed, or been arrested. Kentaro hadn't helped matters by laughing hysterically at him bringing tears to his eyes. There was a reason Kentaro's parents had always made sure Kentaro was driven everywhere. Now that Kentaro was an adult he had gotten his drivers license and bought a car much to his mother's horror and despair.

"Don't you love my mad driving skills," Kentaro cheerily said when Takeshi stumbled out of the car slightly shaken.

"Well you have mad driving skills, probably not in the way you meant it though," Takeshi managed to get out before collapsing on the side walk.

"Was that a comeback," a voice said startling both Takeshi and Kentaro, Eri walked up to them sighing. "Rather pathetic. The real question though is how this boy here got a drivers license in the first place."

"The guy was drunk," Takeshi said in a monotone voice.

"No he wasn't," Kentaro huffed, "He was high off heroin I think."

Eri raised an eyebrow, "How is that any better? Well come on in, Sukiyabashi wants to see you."

"Who all came?" asked Takeshi as they walked into the house.

"My family and friends," Eri said shortly ushering them in.

They walked in and to Takeshi's dismay and Kentaro's delight it was a full house. Takeshi noticed Sukiyabashi walking toward them at a brisk pace. He looked like he was having the time of his life and he was wearing the smile he wore when he was a villain. That couldn't be good Takeshi noted. Kentaro oblivious as usual ran up to Sukiyabashi and hugged him tightly which he returned. Takeshi walked at a slower pace toward the other two.

"Takeshi, Kentaro, it's been awhile," Sukiyabashi gave Takeshi a hug. "So how are you guys, married yet?"

"Um no," Takeshi grumbled at the same time Kentaro said in a loud voice, "Unfortunately not yet."

"Kentaro," Takeshi sighed, but stopped when Sukiyabashi started making odd gestures. "Sukiyabashi what are you doing?"

Sukiyabashi grinned and pointed Takeshi turned and saw a crowd of girls surrounding three boys. The blonde boy was Nokoru who was currently trying to make his way over to them. Takeshi realized Sukiyabashi had been waving his arms about at him. Suoh and Akira followed suit with their girlfriends that for the life of Takeshi he couldn't remember their names. Kentaro whispered something to Sukiyabashi who nodded.

"What are you guys talking about," Takeshi asked.

"It's nothing important," Kentaro said, but when Takeshi gave him the look of death he gulped and said. "Suoh and his girlfriend, for some reason I can't remember her name, have been fighting lately."

"So it has nothing to do with me," Takeshi blurted out before he could stop himself.

"No, should it," Kentaro asked looking confused.

Takeshi shook his head fast, blushing just a bit. He turned and came face to face with Nokoru. "Hello, Imonoyama san."

"Oh there's no need to be formal after all we're friends right," Nokoru smiled.

"Of course," Takeshi said just as Suoh and Akira came up.

Kentaro leaned in and whispered in Takeshi's ear, "How long have you been friends with him?"

Takeshi laughed and whispered back, "He's are boss, you know."

"Oh now that you mention it, I totally see it now." Kentaro whispered back and then said aloud. "Well I'm going to go bug Eri for a bit."

Nokoru waved and then ushered his four companions to a near by table. Suoh sat on Nokoru's right and Akira on his left. Sukiyabashi sat next to Suoh while Takeshi sat next to Akira. It was a little cramped since the table was only supposed to have four seats.

"Well how was your trip," Nokoru asked.

"It was good, Eri received a nice welcome," Sukiyabashi said staring at the table. "We probably won't be going back for awhile though. Eri and I did elope and the only reason everyone is happy is because the king and queen are. My parents are to say the least eccentric."

"Well that's better then them hating you right," Nokoru said but he was looking at Takeshi when he said it. "How is Eri's family dealing with you two being married for several years?"

"Her mom was just sad that Eri didn't tell her before hand. Her father on the other hand refuses to talk to me or Eri."

Takeshi frowned, "I'm sure given time he'll accept it."

"Perhaps you should have kids then," Akira butted in. Everyone looked at him and he frowned. "Well once you have children her parents will be obsessing over how cute they are to worry about this whole marriage thing."

"In theory that would work," Nokoru said in an almost strained voice.

"Why only in theory," Akira asked Nokoru, but Nokoru turned to Takeshi.

"It will probably work while their still babies," Takeshi said slowly. "Of course there is a chance that they'll be all over Eri and Sukiyabashi when it comes to taking care of the children. When the kids are older that's when you'll have serious problems though. The grandparents will be telling their grandchildren every chance they get that their father is a horrible man who stole their child."

Nokoru nodded and Akira just gave a little oh before Sukiyabashi interrupted, "I hear we have more pressing matters. Suoh I heard from Kentaro that you and Nagisa have been having some problems lately."

"She says that I don't spend enough time with her," Suoh replied frowning slightly. "I pointed out that I only work as a body guard, she has plays, concerts, and dance recitals almost every weekend. It's her fault if we aren't together as much as she wants."

"Suoh your hopeless," Nokoru sighed.

No I'm not we both have to give equally in a relationship," Suoh spat out startling the three observers. "You don't know anything about relationships because you've never been in one."

"Suoh, can I at least explain myself," Nokoru said as if Suoh, who had never really yelled at him, didn't just spit out nasty words. Suoh folded his arms and huffed, but Nokoru continued, "I know this fight has put some stress on your relationship ("Basically ended it," Suoh muttered, but Nokoru chose to ignore it.) I think you need to tell her the things you are willing to tell me and you're other friends. Your right, you're at the stage were you both need to give and if she can't then you'll have to end it."

There was silence and it became clear to Takeshi that Nokoru expected Suoh to say something. Instead Akira spoke, "Suoh, Nokoru's right. Utako and I have given up things for each other and it doesn't seem that Nagisa is giving you anything in return. You should end it if she really can't. I don't know what's happened to her, but Utako has been complaining about her recently, but that's not the point."

Suoh looked at them all and said in a shaky voice that Takeshi thought didn't go with the ninja at all, "Do you guys really think I should break up with her?"

"Talk with her first," Nokoru said. "Do you need someone to walk you to her?"

Suoh huffed suddenly and said, "No and if you were volunteering Nokoru I have to say no. Nagisa at the moment hates you."

Nokoru smiled only slightly, "No I'd send Sukiyabashi with you. I'm sure he knows a lot about relationships and Nagisa doesn't really know him."

Suoh nodded and looked at Sukiyabashi, "I guess he can come with me, to make sure I don't do anything rash."

With that Sukiyabashi and Suoh left the table. Takeshi watched them walk over to where the flute player sat with Utako. He watched as Sukiyabashi talked to Utako who soon after they were done speaking to each other came over. She smiled at Takeshi and felt a sense of déjà vu. Then he realized that she had a similar smile to Eri's not quite as potent as Eri's, but still an Eri smile. Takeshi kind of gapped at her then he realized she wanted a seat next to Akira. He moved over one to allow the two lovebirds to be together.

Utako looked at him and asked, "So have you and Kentaro gotten together yet?"

Takeshi stared at her in shock, "Uh, no we haven't. Why does everyone keep asking me that?"

Nokoru smiled, "Well you're just made for each other you know."

Takeshi hoped Nokoru was kidding, he had to be. Then he noticed Akira nodding in agreement. Utako interrupted Takeshi's train of thought, "You know what, after this business with Nagisa lets get totally shit faced."

Akira looked at her innocently, "I don't want shit on my face."

Takeshi stared at him and Nokoru literally banged his head against the table. Utako glared at Nokoru and replied, "It's a figure of speech darling. I just meant lets get really, really drunk."

Nokoru looked and it was clear to Takeshi that he was trying not to laugh, "I agree, everyone should."

"Why so you can get in Suoh's pants," Akira asked in the same innocent voice and again Nokoru banged his head on the table.

Utako burst out laughing and Takeshi felt a slight chuckle coming out of him. Takeshi was about to say something when he heard a horrible shriek. He jumped in the air and his instincts told him to get ready for a fight. He raised his arms and then realized that it was Nagisa when the shrieking continued with tears. Takeshi was slightly embarrassed, but he didn't feel too bad because Akira and Utako had both leaped up and were in similar positions. Nokoru was the only one who appeared to have actually known what was going on. Eri and Kentaro came up behind Akira and Utako both asking what was wrong with Nagisa.

Nagisa was shrieking, "I don't give in this relationship. What am I supposed to give up all my dreams so we can have a few weekends together?"

Suoh suddenly looked pissed and he spoke in a smaller more deadly voice, "I give more in this relationship. I make time for us. It's unfair that you can do what you please while I have to bend over backwards for you. This isn't a recent thing it's been going on for years. To be honest I should have broken it off years ago when you started treating me like shit. Ever since you became world renown you've become a bitch."

"So the truth comes out," Nagisa sneered, a look that made her look hideous. "You're jealous because out of the two of us you've become the lesser known."

"If you want to believe that then fine, but it's over and don't come crying to me," Suoh spat back. "Besides I know about those guy lovers back in America that you've been hanging all over. I know you've had sex with at least one of them."

"Now you try to ruin my reputation," Nagisa snarled and she turned and looked at Nokoru. "I'm not the only one who's cheated in this relationship. I know you've been doing Nokoru for years. Why else is he so into every girl, but has never had a girlfriend. I don't believe that bullshit about how he can't chose a girl because their all special."

"Don't involve Nokoru," Suoh's voice was even more dangerous then it was before and Nokoru went past Takeshi toward Suoh. "He had nothing to do with this decision. It was my own."

"Oh defending your boyfriend," Nagisa smirked triumphantly.

Nokoru spoke before Suoh had a chance to retaliate, "You need better comebacks. You sound like one of those teen dramas. Do you think anyone here cares what gender we like to screw is. I think not."

Nagisa looked at Nokoru as if he were scum and replied, "There are only about 50 people here darling. That's not nearly enough to count for anything."

"Actually there is 257 people here Ms. Azuya," Eri replied looking pissed. "I think its going to go down a bit though since I'm kicking you out of my house."

Nagisa stared at her then snarled, "I really didn't want to be here anyway."

Takeshi watched as Nagisa left stormed off. She made a lot of noise at her departing making sure to bang the floor with her feet, slamming the walls with her fists, and slamming the door almost breaking it. Then she was gone and everyone continued with what they were doing. Takeshi helped Nokoru bring a slightly dazed Suoh back to their table. Akira returned shortly with a drink and Kentaro came with some food. Sukiyabashi and Eri pulled up chairs really making it cramped, now with three extra people surrounding the table.

Suoh finally managed to speak, "I can't believe I broke up with her without killing her. Thanks Nokoru."

Nokoru smiled, "Your welcome. It wouldn't have been good if you attacked her."

Suoh stared in astonishment for a few seconds before he laughed, "What no lecture on how to treat a girl properly. Surely you would be pissed if I hit her because she's a girl and all that jazz."

"Nah, I've grown since then and I know that not all women are good," Nokoru responded. "Plus I think Nagisa succeeded in making me hate her."

"Wow I didn't think that was possible," Suoh laughed.

"Guys why don't you get a room," Eri said slightly annoyed.

"Oh sorry we do that sometimes," Nokoru responded while Suoh blushed.

"No I mean literally go get a room," Eri said when Utako interrupted; "You guys should get real drunk first though."

Nokoru laughed, "Come Suoh we have a date at the bar and then a bed room see you guys later."

"They sure got together fast," Takeshi said.

"Nagisa wasn't lying Takeshi they have been together for about a month," Akira said in a strange moment of seriousness.

After that the party ran smoothly and now there was only about an hour left of the party. Takeshi hadn't seen Nokoru or Suoh since then, but that wasn't really what was on his mind. It was Sukiyabashi, Akira, Utako, and Eri who kept looking at him and Kentaro throughout the party. Utako and Eri whenever they noticed him looking their way gave almost identical smirks at him. It was starting to creep him out. Kentaro being the person he is didn't appear to notice the looks the others were giving him.

Takeshi was getting a drink when Akira came up to him, "Can you go get Nokoru and Suoh from the bedroom? We're taking them home. I have to find Eri though. I believe they are in the second room on the left."

"Uh, sure," Takeshi shrugged he had nothing better to do.

Takeshi walked up the stairs and opened the door of the room. He had knocked first, and there had been a muffled response so he had announced he was coming in so everything had better be decent. He walked in and to his surprise there were not two people, but one. Takeshi realized it was Kentaro and he stepped toward him. Just when he reached the bed he heard the door close and lock. This jolted Kentaro out of his sleep.

"What time is it," Kentaro asked sounding groggy.

"It's about 1:30pm and I think Akira just locked us in the room," Takeshi said sitting next to Kentaro.

"Damn that means I've only been asleep for ten minutes," Kentaro stifled a yawn. "So…are you sure we're locked in?"

"Were you really asleep I thought you answered," Takeshi asked.

"I probably did answer, but I don't remember," Kentaro said collapsing back on the bed.

"Do you think they'll let us out soon? Takeshi asked still sitting on bed looking slightly uncomfortable.

"Probably not, knowing them they've planed this for months and have hidden camera's in this room," Kentaro muttered.

"Yeah, what do you think they want us to do," Takeshi asked.

"Hmm have hot passionate sex," Kentaro replied lazily.

Takeshi looked at him for a moment and sighed, "I think they think they're in a shoujo manga or something."

"Like a Disney movie," Kentaro said still looking at the ceiling. "I have a feeling they want us to talk about our relationship. I only say this because everyone has asked me if we've gotten together yet."

"Yep me too," Takeshi answered with a slight feeling of dread in his voice.

They were silent for a few minutes before Kentaro broke the heavy silence, "I'll start I guess. I think right at this very moment we're best friends. What say you?"

Takeshi looked into Kentaro's eyes for a long moment then, "I agree."

Kentaro frowned and sat up, "Can't you say it?"

"Say what," Takeshi looked bewildered, but inside he knew what Kentaro was talking about.

"Jeez, I thought we were finally going somewhere," Kentaro shook his head. "I mean can't you say that you like me as a friend?"

"I did say it," Takeshi gritted his teeth knowing that Kentaro was going to press him to say it.

"Just say it Takeshi," Kentaro whispered looking down at the bed.

"Kentaro you are my best friend and the only person," Takeshi faltered and Kentaro looked up at him in surprise. "You're the only person who really understands me, though you still don't understand some things."

"Like what," Kentaro asked.

"There little things that don't really matter," this time it Takeshi's turn to stare at the bed, though he was blushing madly.

"Look Takeshi I'm normally a patient guy, but if I have to pull your teeth out just to get a straight answer to everything it will drive me mad," Kentaro said in a soft voice, but it was enough to get Takeshi to start talking.

"Well there's the rich thing," Takeshi mumbled.

"Takeshi, I'm just joking around," Kentaro said and he looked oddly serious.

"Look I know you can get by in life without me, but I like having you there with me. I like to get you things because you're my best friend and well I want to help you."

Takeshi looked at him and smiled and spoke with much more confidence, "You also bug me about my eating habits, the way I dress, my life in general, and you have a marriage fetish."

Kentaro looked at him for a moment and finally said, "The reason I go on about your eating habits is because you would die from malnutrition without me."

"I was fine before you came into my life," Takeshi said and Kentaro looked upset. "Kentaro I'm talking about eating habits not our relationship as a whole!"

"Right," Kentaro said and immediately perked up. "Takeshi you should know that I'm nit picky with you because I want you to be healthy and strong and easy on the eyes."

Takeshi made a strange sound before continuing, "What about the marriage thing?"

Kentaro looked at him and sighed, "Takeshi I can't really explain it. I don't know how to."

Takeshi waited for Kentaro to elaborate and when he didn't Takeshi spoke softly, "Then we'll save that for another time then."

Kentaro smiled then seemed to think of something, "If I kissed you what would you do?"

Takeshi looked startled and he really wanted to snap at Kentaro, but he couldn't all he managed was, "I'm not really sure. Why?"

Kentaro sighed and asked, "Would you kill me?"

"No," the answer was immediate and Takeshi didn't realize at first that he had said anything.

Kentaro beamed up at him and got slowly closer to him, "Can I kiss you now just to see what it feels like?"

Takeshi was frozen in shock and stared at Kentaro for a few seconds, but it certainly felt longer then that. He saw the hope in Kentaro's eyes and for some reason his body, brain, heart he really didn't know, but he knew he couldn't say no to Kentaro. Takeshi didn't know what to think, shouldn't he be freaking out by now. Takeshi found his head nodding before he could stop it, it was like his body wanted it and wasn't about to let his reasoning get in the way. Kentaro leaned in and gave him a kiss.

Takeshi closed his eyes. It was an innocent kiss, sweet and hesitant. There was no tongue involved, just lips crashing into each other. As quick as it had happened, it ended just as fast. Takeshi leaned back slightly dazed. He didn't understand it, he'd kissed girls before, but none of them had left him dazed like this. He looked at Kentaro and noticed his eyes were slightly brighter then they were usually and he seemed dazed too.

"Kentaro," but that's all Takeshi managed before Kentaro leaned in for another kiss.

This one was more demanding and way more arousing then the last kiss. This kiss lasted a little longer then the other one. Kentaro had definitely stuck his tongue in Takeshi's mouth and Takeshi had let him. He couldn't figure out why he was allowing Kentaro to have this kiss. Takeshi didn't know why he enjoyed it as much as he did. When the kiss ended Takeshi realized that they were now holding on to each other.

Kentaro looked at him and tried to make conversation, "Well that was interesting wasn't it Takeshi?"

Takeshi was about to answer when the door opened and Eri popped in, "There you guys are. The parties over so you two better get home."

"Ok, see you later Eri," Takeshi and Kentaro said at the same time running out of the room.

Sukiyabashi was standing at the door, "Well see you two boys later. Drive safe."

The ride home was uneventful and Kentaro actually drove the speed limit. Takeshi felt as if the world was ending. First Suoh apparently was cheating on his girlfriend with the one boy who would kill any other man for doing it. Nagisa turned into a bitch, were did the sweet little girl go. He voluntarily kissed Kentaro twice and Kentaro was driving the speed limit. They got to his house and Kentaro waved goodbye, Takeshi realized he must be extremely tired to not want to enter his house. He watched Kentaro leave. He didn't understand himself at all.

Ok the ending sucked and maybe the whole thing did. This is probably my least favorite of them all. I did enjoy making Nagisa into a bitch. If you feel that the reasoning for their break up was a not explained well maybe I'll explain it in another chapter. You know fill in the holes a bit. I just have a strange hatred for Nagisa and I'm not exactly sure why. The new Nagisa is base off an old friend from high school. She used to be the nicest person and then one day she was a total bitch that slept around. I know I kind of not really bashed America I'm American its ok.

This seemed a bit fluffy and clichéd, what do you think. Review please. I like to know when my stories go down hill. That's usually my problem. Never fear Eri and Sukiyabashi will be in it more, that is if you're worried. It's only 9:30pm and I want to go to bed.
