I haven't uploaded before because I have been sick. I was actually hospitalized O.o

But it wasn't anything serious...but still. A fine way of skipping school.

Warnings: Rape, violence, bondage, angst, yaoi...think that covers it.
Ah!!!! And I also promise that this is the last time Kirihara cries...Or at least for a while.

Disclaimer: Prince of Tennis is not mine is. Sawada is, but we don't like to speak about him...

Please enjoy


I gave the two policemen my best death glare. Unfortunately it didn't work.

"Would you please tell us what happened that night?" one asked.

"I was raped"

"Yes, we know that, but could you tell us the details?"

My eyebrows twitched "What?" I choked out.

The policeman blushed furiously when he realized what he had said.

"Ah! Th-that wa-wasn't what I-I meant to.. say!"

"Perv!" I pointed accusingly at the beet red policeman.

The other one sighed. "I'll ask the questions"

"Can you give us the details of what happened that night, before the incident?"

The incident? That's also a way of putting it.

"I was out with some guys from my school. I left earlier because I was tired. I went home and accidentally ran into someone. We were both knocked over. The guy was a friend of-"

I stopped suddenly, realizing that I had almost revealed his name. Sawada.

"A friend of whom?" the policeman asked sitting up straighter.

"The guy who raped me" I said quietly.

The policeman nodded and wrote down something on a notebook.

"How did they look like?" he asked

"Don't know"

He stared at me disbelievingly.

"We know for sure that the lights were on in the warehouse. You must have seen his face"

"Who told you that the light was on?"

"The boy who found you, Yanagi, told us everything. He also told us that the light was on, and judging on your body's state, you were in no condition to turn it on yourself."

Stupid cops.

"Well, I didn't see his face" I crossed my arms stubbornly.

"Listen" the cop leaned closer. "You don't have to be afraid. Did he threaten you? You don't have to be scared; we'll catch him for sure".

I sniffed softly. "But he has contacts"

The policeman nodded understanding. "He threatened your family? Friends?"

I nodded

"I understand that you don't want to put anyone in danger, but he might hurt others. Please tell us what he looked like"

I wanted to tell them. Really, but my courage vanished when I recalled last night.

"I don't know" I said not looking at them.

The policeman sighed again.

"I understand. Please tell us if you remember anything else" he said and they both left.

I lay down in my bed and pulled the covers over my head.

Soon after I was asleep.

Yanagi PoV

I was sitting with the other regulars when the two policemen came out of his room.

"Did you get any clues?" I asked curiously

"Not one" one of them answered

"What?" Marui and Niou said at the same time

"I believe that he is afraid to tell us anything. I came to the understanding that the rapist threatened Kirihara-kun that if he told anything, Kirihara-kun's friends and family would be hurt."

I gasped slightly at this.

'I should have known this' I scolded myself.

"So what are you going to do now?" Yagyuu asked

"Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do. Without a description we can't find him. And I doubt that Kirihara-kun will report him, so he's a free man".

"That's bullshit. He has raped someone" Niou yelled.

"I am well aware of that, but there is nothing we can do if Kirihara-kun doesn't report it" came the aggravated answer.

Niou slumped against a wall in defeat.

The policemen left, but we didn't go into Akaya's room.

Everyone was a bit shocked and angry.

"That idiot" Niou suddenly yelled and stormed into Akaya's room.

"Wait" I shouted, but he ignored it.

----

Kirihara PoV

I woke with a start when the door to my room slammed open.

I looked around confused.

'Where's the canons?' I thought dumbly.

I looked towards the door, and recognized Niou standing there. He looked mighty pissed.

"Niou-senpai, what's wro-"

I didn't get to finish. Niou stormed towards me and grabbed my pyjama collar.

"You idiot! Why would you cover for an asshole like that?" he yelled in my face.

I understood right away what he was talking about.

I let my eyes drop, unable to look him in the eyes.

"I'm sorry" I whispered pathetically.

Before Niou could say anymore, the others came in and wrenched him off me.

"Calm down Niou" Sanada yelled at him, and Niou pulled back a little. But his face still looked at me with anger.

"I agree though" I heard Marui say.

I looked at him questioningly. "What do you mean?"

He walked towards me and bumped me lightly on the head.

"Don't you think we can take care of ourselves?" he asked

I stuck out my tongue. "Why would you think I'm protecting you guys?"

Marui laughed loudly. "Who else Kirihara? Your group of friends is

small, remember"

"Pardon me for not being popular" I sneered at him. We both looked at each other and started laughing.

"No, seriously" Marui became serious again. "You don't have to protect us".

I bit my lip hard. Why won't they understand?

"But what if something happen? He has friends. Tough friends." I sniffed

"What if he does the same to one of you? I couldn't live with that".

Nobody said anything for awhile.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked up, finding Sanada towering over me.

I gulped, feeling somewhat afraid.

"I swear to God I would have hit you, if you weren't lying in a hospital bed" he roared.

I whimpered and looked Yanagi. I gave him my save-me-from-the-ogre look, but Yanagi just sat there.

Betrayer. Judas. I stuck my tongue out at him

"Can't you take this a little more serious?" Niou shouted at me.

I felt anger rise and stormed out of bed. I ran over to Niou and hit him the hardest I have ever hit anyone.

Niou tumbled to the floor and looked at me disbelievingly.

"Why?" I found myself yelling. "Why does everything have to be so god damn serious all the time? Can't you just accept what I'm saying and leave it. I'm trying to forget what happened, but all everyone wants is to reopen the wound and pour salt into it" I gasped and looked at my friends. They all had shock and sorrow written all over their faces.

I felt the anger rise again.

"JUST STOP IT" I yelled as loud as I could. I took the glass of water that stood by the window and threw it against the wall.

The next thing I knew, Yanagi had stormed over to me and tightly gripped my hands.

"Calm down, Akaya" he said with a strained voice.

I struggled to get my hands free, but Yanagi was much stronger than me.

"Why? Why must you look at me like I was some kind of freak?" I yelled at the others who just stood there, looking stupid.

I kicked Yanagi in the shin, but he still held my arms.

"We don't think of you as a freak" Yanagi said. I looked up and saw his eyes filled with emotions. I relaxed then, because I have never seen his eyes like that before.

I felt tears flowing down my face.

'Shit. Stupid tears' I yelled at myself, but I still burrowed my face is Yanagi's chest and cried like a child.bYanagi let go of my hands and embraced me tightly. We stood like that until my face and throat hurt. I sniffed and pulled away from Yanagi.

"Are you alright now?" he asked gently.

I nodded and turned to look at the others.

Marui was looking at me with a tear stricken face and Jackal had a comforting arm around his shoulders. Sanada had drawn his caps down so I couldn't see his face and Niou and Yagyuu looked at me with slightly painfilled eyes. slightly.

'It's all because of me' I thought. 'I'm causing them all this trouble'.

It's all my fault.

I slowly bent my head as low as my pride allowed it.

"Sorry" I said sincerely.

"S' alright" Niou muttered back.

I smiled for the first time in a long while.

"Awww! Niou's being all mushy" I teased and got my expected reaction

"Stupid brat" Niou spat and ran after me, as I limped behind Jackal, both of us ignoring fukubuchou's yelling.

Yanagi lightly brushed away the hair from his face.

"Yare yare".


Just for information: yare yare basically means jeez..or geez. I'm not sure how you write it in English.
