Chapter 8 – Yuki Being Nice! An Unexpected Confession.

For the rest of the day Shuichi couldn't help but loses concentration in his classes. He had been making multiple mistakes while playing his song, which really surprised himself a lot since he had played 'Sleepless Beauty' more then he can even count. During lunch time he didn't have any appetite to eat his bento at all nor did he even want to enter the teachers' room either so he spent the whole lunch time in the washroom. He was still too embarrassed to see Yuki and Mitsuki-sensei after he had seen them doing it in the school gym.

After school Shuichi went into the music room and sat down on the floor with his back against the piano. Shuichi look out the window and sees black clouds started to gather in the sky.

"What am I suppose to do now? I am going to see Yuki at home anyways. But he might remind me of this morning's incident if I see his face." Shuichi said frustrated as another blush appeared on his face.

"What is this feeling that I am having right now?" Shuichi wondered.

Knock Knock

Shuichi almost jump 10 feet into the air when someone suddenly knock on the music room's door.

"Ya?" Shuichi quickly said after regaining himself.

The door open up and Yuki step in.

"What are you doing here?" Shuichi said as Yuki walk in.

Yuki turn to look at Shuichi and raise an eyebrow when he spotted Shuichi sitting on the floor beside the piano.

"What are you doing baka?" Yuki said questioningly.

Shuichi blushes lightly and turn his head away from Yuki. "Is none of your business."

Yuki walk towards Shuichi and took a seat on the table in front of the piano. "They were worried about you."

"Huh?" Shuichi's head snapped towards Yuki's direction.

"They were worried about. The teachers and the principal. You weren't there for lunch on the first day of your work and some of the teachers actually prepared some food for you. We went around the school looking for you." Yuki repeated himself.

"I had something to do during lunch today. I didn't know that you guys were looking for me." Shuichi said in a toneless voice.

"Something to do? Like what? Jerking off inside the gym?" Yuki couldn't help but mock Shuichi.

"I am not you." Shuichi suddenly snapped when he heard this and yelled back at Yuki before he could stop himself.

"What did you say?" Yuki asked cautiously.

'AHH!' Shuichi mentally cried to himself.

"I… I…" Shuichi began to struggle with his words and look away from Yuki once more.

"Now you just made me really curious. Please, do finish what you are saying. What about me?" Yuki said.

"I… I saw you and Mitsuki-sensei this morning in the gym having… no… making love is better." Shuichi said straight out.

"You saw?" Yuki said a bit surprised.

Shuichi nodded lightly while trying to avoid looking at Yuki's face.

"So what?" Yuki plainly said. "This is normal for a single woman and man. This is nature. Accept it."

"Yes it is normal for a single man and woman to play around but inside a school gym on a school day? And right before the school starts none the less. That is just disgusting." Shuichi argued.

"What? Is not like it is the first time I had done that before. Next time if you don't want to see it again, don't come to school that early in the morning anymore. Because no one was suppose to be out in the hallway during that time yet. How am I supposed to know when you are wandering around the hallway?" Yuki said uncaringly.

Shuichi didn't know what to say back to Yuki except to stare at him.

"What? Don't tell me you haven't seen those things before? How old are you again?" Yuki said while raising an eyebrow.

"Is Mitsuki-sensei your lover?" Shuichi finally managed to say.

"No. I don't believe in love. There is no such word in my vocabulary. Everyone that I had bed with are all just tools that I use to help me release. I am a normal young man you know." Yuki said plainly.

"Neither do I… I never believed in love…" Shuichi replied sadly.

Yuki sent a curious look at Shuichi and Shuichi just lower his head, letting his bangs to fall and cover his face. Yuki gave a helpless sigh.

"Tell me," Yuki started. "Who are you? Or at least tell me what happened to you."

Shuichi was surprise from the sudden questions. BOOM Thunder suddenly strikes, making loud noises.

"No matter how hard you tried to hide your past, I can see right through you. Your sadness and sorrow." Yuki continued. "And not to mention the incident at our farm on the day we found you. It wasn't a robbery or kidnapper trying to get money out of you, whoever had hurt you actually intended to kill you, right?"

Shuichi slowly stood up and took a seat beside Yuki on the desk. Rain started pouring harshly outside.

"My past… my suffering and my pain all revolves around my family." Shuichi said as he turns to look at the outside. "It was also raining on that day…"

Yuki nodded for Shuichi to continue his talking.

"Let me tell you this, before when I was still living with my parents, I had always been able to get anything I want. No one would dare to ever oppose me." Shuichi laughed slightly.

"So you are a rich brat?" Yuki asked.

"No… just a kid that had never suffer before. My family owns a small business and I am the only son." Shuichi lied. "Sometimes, I would even think that I am the king of the world."

Yuki chuckled at Shuichi' small confession.

Shuichi ignored Yuki and continued. "My life was too materialized. I know that. But that's the only thing that would actually make me feel better."

"So that's why you act like the way you do!" Yuki finally suddenly realized. "The big ego attitude and so demanding, it's all because that's how you grew up."

Shuichi nodded. "I know I can be really nasty sometimes but that's just my way of protecting me… I had never considered anyone to be my friend nor did I ever have a serious relationship with anyone before. If I was still back home, talking to someone casually like I am doing with your right now would be impossible."

Yuki laughed. "You know, I am not that bad of a person. If you don't attack me I won't attack you."

Shuichi smile slightly in return. "I am actually very envious of you. You have everything that I had always wanted in my life. Freedom, friends and a real family. And you know what? You are the first person who had ever yelled back at me, other then my father that is."

Yuki stares at Shuichi's face.

"I really hope we can start over. I really appreciate your helps. Please continue to guide me in the future as well!" Shuichi make a quick bow at Yuki.

Yuki smirk at Shuichi's action. "I might actually start to like you."

"Huh?" Shuichi said as he looks up at Yuki with his big and innocent violet eyes.

Yuki grinned. "I am a sucker for cute things." Was all Yuki said before lowering his face and kisses Shuichi.

Shuichi gasped in surprise and quickly pushes Yuki away.

"What in the world do you think you are doing? I am a guy too!" Shuichi said with a big blush.

Yuki smirk. "But you have such a girly face. You actually look quite cute when you are not getting angry or yelling at people. Beside, man or woman doesn't matter to me; as long as I can get pleasures out of it I can do it with anyone."

Shuichi's body began to shake in anger but couldn't find his voice to yell at Yuki.

'Because what right do I have to yell at him for his words? I use people as tools to keep me company as well.' Shuichi thought sadly.

BOOM The thunder noises got louder. Shuichi flinches at the sound and curled himself into a ball. Yuki sees this and eyed Shuichi weirdly.

"Scared?" Yuki suddenly asked.

Shuichi shook his head rapidly. "No!... I am not!"

BOOM the thunder strike again. Shuichi uses both of his hands and cover his ears, trying desperately to block out the horrible noises.

"You know, you really do act like two different persons in front of a lot of people and alone with only a one. Is just thunder, what's there to be scared of?" Yuki asked confusedly.

"My parents were never home much. Even though I have maids and servants in my house, I would always be alone. Don't you think is sad?" Shuichi asked, almost to the stage of crying.

"Sad? You have maids and servants! You don't need to do anything. Who cares about being at home alone? You can just sit there and wait for maids and servants to serve you! What's there to be sad about?" Yuki asked, surprised.

"Of course you are saying that right now because you will never understand how I feel. I know is good to have people serving you, and that's what everyone thinks. But have you guys ever looked at things from MY point of view? Even though your house isn't even 1/3 of the size of my house, at least you know that if an accident happened and you cry for help, Hiro, Tatusha, Ryuichi or even Mika-san would always run right into your room to see if you need any help. They are the people who you had known all your life and you put all your trusts in them. But for me, ever since I can remember, the 'family' that I had been living with, the 'house' that I had been living in, had never once given me the safe feeling. Even if I cry out for help, no one that I 'trust' would come and help me because I have no friends and family that cares." Shuichi said, while finally letting his tears falls down.

Yuki gave Shuichi a sad look as he cried.

"It hurts Yuki. It hurts a lot! I had never once told anyone all my feelings before. Not even Tohma knows my deep feelings. I thought I had already gotten over the fact that my life sucks after Tohma allowed me to stay here. I tried to act like everything is beginning to shine for me. But is not! Right now when I think back on my life and talks about it, I had finally realized that the wound that had been with me since the day I was born had never once healed." Shuichi cried.

Yuki couldn't stand it when Shuichi is sad. Without even thinking about it, Yuki pulled Shuichi into his arms.

"Is ok Shuichi. Cry. I know you had been holding it all inside you. If it makes you feel better cry." Yuki comforted Shuichi while lightly patting his head.

Shuichi was taken by surprise and paused for a moment. Moments later, Shuichi put his arms around Shuichi's neck and buried his face in Yuki's neck and let his crying continue.

"I had always only wanted someone to listen to me like this. Do you really hate me Yuki?" Shuichi asked.

Yuki shook his head and held Shuichi tighter and closer to him.

Shuichi forced a smile while holding onto Yuki, enjoying the warmth that he is feeling right now. 'Just like the night when we slept together in the same bed.'

Safe was the only word that Shuichi could use to describe how he is feeling right now. He feels so right with Yuki. Shuichi gasped as he realized what the feeling that he had been thinking of since this morning after the Yuki incident is.

"I know that we always fight when we are at home. I had never realized it before and I think it started on the day that we have met and you held onto me in your arms in your bed during that night. Feelings had been building up inside me ever since then and you didn't try to treat me specially, always showing me your true self. I think I fell in love with you Yuki." Shuichi confessed.
