Disclaimer: Hmph! For the last time I do not own Gravitation or any of it's characters.
A/N: Yeah!!!! This is the last chapter of this oh so lovely fic. I want to thank those of you who reviewed my story your thoughts were deeply appreciated. Well on with the last chapter.
Chapter 4: How we want things to be.
Yuki's P.O.V
"Shu-chan.wake up."
When I arrived home after what happened between me and Taki I felt like a weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. But there was still something I had to do.
I had to make things right between Shuichi and me.
"Shu-chan please wake up."
Shuichi slowly opened his eyes and instantly locked them with Yuki's amber ones. Yuki's smile however faded away when a look of fear crossed the younger boy's features.
The two stood quite still, Shuichi laying on his back and Eiri leaning over him.
"Shuichi?" Yuki reached out his hand and stroked the boys pink hair. A small smile found its way onto Shuichi's lips and yet his eye's still were cautious.
Yuki had a peaceful expression on his face and even allowed a small smile to grace his lips.
Shuichi was about to say something but Eiri placed a finger on his lip's to stop him.
"Before you say anything I'm sorry for what I've done Shuichi. I'm sorry Taki showed you those pictures of him and me... I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me."
Shuichi remained quiet his brow furrowed in concentration as he contemplated Yuki's words. Yuki gradually continued.
"I was afraid you know...that if I opened up to you I'd get hurt like before...so I did whatever I could to push you away. I love you and what I've done is unforgivable. But I hope you can give me another chance."
Shuichi wiped away the tears that were now falling down Eiri's cheek's before leaning forward to place a light kiss on the his lips. When he pulled away he was sporting a huge grin on his face.
"YUKIIIIIII..."
Eiri suddenly found himself on the bedroom floor when shuichi pounced on him like a lion.
"I didn't say you could tackle me." Yuki whispered wrapping his arms around the thin waist.
Shuichi didn't answer him though but was extremely still for a long time.
"Shuichi what's the matter?" he asked when he realized the boy wasn't breathing right.
Shuichi grabbed onto Yuki's shirt as a sob escaped his lips.
"I guess that was a bad idea...you know jumping on you like that. Its just that I'm in pain...a lot of pain but I just need some rest Yuki."
Eiri closed his eyes momentarily cursing himself to hell before getting up and carefully picking shindou up with him.
"Where are we going?" Shuichi asked when Eiri took him out of the bedroom.
"I want to give you a nice hot bath it'll ease the pain a bit...that sound good to you."
Shuichi nodded and rested his head against Yuki's shoulder as they made their way to the bathroom.
When they got there Yuki kicked the door open and walked inside the overly spacious room.
"You think you can stand a while love?"
Shuichi nodded before he was lowered to the bathroom sink and watched as Yuki filled up the bath with strawberry scented Bubble bath and warm water.
"Come here Shu-chan." Yuki whispered.
Shuichi walked slowly over to Yuki blushing when he realized he was still naked from before. When he reached the tub Yuki was almost halfway naked as his clothes fell to the tile with a restless sigh.
He slowly slid into the warm water.
'Yuki's going to take a bath with me.'
Yuki held out his hand and again he smiled. (A/N: He's smiling a lot more than usual wouldn't you say? This is freaking even me out.)
"Come on Shu get in."
Shuichi smiled too and slide into the bathtub his back against Yuki's chest. He relaxed and rested against Eir's shoulder. Eiri wrapped his arms around the boy's waist and closed his eyes.
"I'm sorry for sleeping with him. I was just so frustrated with my feelings I didn't-"
"Yuki."
"Hmm?"
"It's ok. You don't have to explain. I just want you to love me the right way ok? That's all I ask."
"Ok I understand."
Yuki and Shuichi sat in each other's arms silently and thought about everything that happened between them. Maybe they could work this out. Maybe they could actually be a happy couple.
Then again...Maybe everything isn't always as it seems.
A/N: Well that's the end of Illusions hope you guys enjoyed reading this fic as much as I liked writing it. In case you don't already know the whole thing with Eiri abusing and cheating on shuichi was because he didn't want to give into his feelings of love and he didn't want shuichi to love him so he hurt Shu in order to push him away. But alas Gravitation has a way of working it's wonderful magic. Now I'm contemplating on writing a sequel that would lead up to Taki's 'revenge.' or do you guys think I should just end it here? Comments are appreciated greatly. Thanks for reading!! Bye.
