Two days later…
The trip was definitely going as well. They had arrived at the airport of that country about several minutes ago before pointed to house of Ashiwara's friend by a limo, which picked them up immediately.

After an hour later, their limo had reached on the yard of this residence, which was certainly even bigger than ever have been their imaginations. There were a small beautiful flower garden on the right and a huge circle pool with a statue of a little angel in the middle of the pool on the left.
The driver opened the door allowed them to out of limo. When they reached in the doorway, the two servant men approached them and offering to bring their own suitcases to their room on the third floor.
There have been already many people on the lobby who looked as businesspersons, executives, and several players Go from the other countries with wear best suits.
"Ashiwara!" Suddenly a tall-slim man with his short-ripe brown hair and a black suit was called and walking up them.
"Nick!"
"Hi! Friends how are you?" He said as he held out his hand to Ashiwara.
"Just fine." Ashiwara retorted as he accepted the handshake. "Congratulation for your project!"
"Thank you. Truthfully I still not believe that that sale of our product to be able reached upon of average."
"That was good, wasn't it?"
Nick sighed. "Sure. You know when I was a boy; I really wanted to become a Go player like you, but the fate said the otherwise."
Ashiwara laughed. "Because of that you, you invite the players Go, didn't you? And… by the way about Go…" Ashiwara turned gently to Akira, Hikaru, and Waya who all stood behind him. Waya and Hikaru were involved in a conversation while Akira stood quietly beside them. "Oh God, I am almost forgot!" Ashiwara said as he slapped his temple with on his palm. His voice made an attention from the three boys. "Nick, allow me to introduce my friends. He is Shindou Hikaru 3-Dan, He is Waya Yoshitaka 4-Dan, and he is Touya Akira 5-Dan."
"Hello! I am Graham Nick; pleasant to meet you are all." He greeted with smiled on his face as his handshakes them, one by one.
"I am pleasant to meet you too, Mr. Nick." Akira said with smile either. On Akira's eyes, Nick was still looked young, maybe about twenty-five.
"Ah! I want to introduce my nephew to you are all." Nick said before turned around to call. "Steve!"
A boy who was looked busy talked with Go players turned gently. "Yes uncle?"
"Come Here."
He walked towards them. "What's wrong uncle?"
"Steve, introduce yourself to them."
Steve gazed at them for several seconds before he said. "I am Graham Steven; nice to meet you are all." He greeted politely.
"Nice to meet you, too" Ashiwara said with smiled.
Definitely, Steve was a beautiful boy with his long pale-brown hair, slightly curly in one tied; his eyes were blue; and his body was slender like a model. His age looked same with Hikaru and Akira.
Nick stroked his nephew's hair gently as he said "good boy," before introduced Ashiwara, Hikaru, Waya, and Akira. Steve widened his eyes as Nick turn introduced Akira to him. The pale brown hair approached that boy. "Are you really Touya Akira?"
Akira surprised slightly before smiled and said. "Yes I am."
He held out his hand to Akira. "I am Steve; just call me Steve."
The dark haired reached for it. "Okay Steve, nice to see you."
"Yes… nice… to see you… too." He said slowly when he raised the other hand to Akira's cheek, before brushed his lips to the other boy gently, made those emerald green eyes widened in disbelief.
Meanwhile, the around situation did not felt better.
Nick stunned.
Ashiwara blinked.
Waya gasped.
Hikaru's jaw dropped.
Steve pulled back for several minutes later with smiled on his lips.
"Steve!" The angry tone came.
"Yes uncle?"
"Not yes! But… wha… what were you doing Steve!"
"I am?" He tilted his head in an innocent manner as if unfelt guilty at all after what just he did. "I Just wanted to give greet; what's that wrong?"
"I know but you didn't need to…"
"Eh, Nick. I think that is not a big deal, right Akira?" Ashiwara asked to that boy who was now stand silently with the red stained on his cheek; never crossed in his mind that his first kiss will be stolen by the one who just he knew. As far as he not noticed that Shindou never take his eyes off him from the beginning, even more exactly since Steve has been kissing him.
The silence was broken by a servant man' arrival who said that he and the others were already prepared the two rooms.
Ashiwara, Akira, Hikaru, and Waya followed the servant man until in front of either one rooms. He indicated their rooms and gave Ashiwara two keys as he said "you are all can call me if there something can I do" before leaving them.
Ashiwara noticed that their rooms were side by side before finally decided. "Waya-kun roommate's Shindou-kun and Akira roommate's me. Akira, you don't mind, ne?"
"Not at all." He shook his head gently.
"And you two?" Ashiwara asked to Hikaru and Waya.
"No." The both boys said.
They stepped in to their each room, one by one; including Akira; just stopped in the doorway when someone called his name.
"Akira-kun!"
There was Steve who called him Akira-kun.
The dark haired turned around to the other boy. "Yes Steve?"
"If you already finished unpack your luggage; would you meet me on the lobby? I want talk some with you."
Akira stared him for a moment before smiled and said. "Sure."
To be continued
A/N:
Steve was original character. His characters were attachment, innocent, selfish, and of course… very, very annoying (especially for Hikaru). Certainty, Akira will get a trouble with this boy.
The story about Hikaru and Akira will be present in the next chapter.
