Author's Note:

:It's been a while since my last update. I manage to finish this chapter.

Phew.

I tried to keep it as serious as possible, though I still get some crazy ideas.

Hopefully the next chapter would be an improvement of the plot and of the relationship.

: I've been addicted to Izaya X Shizuo loveteam, and karma/nagisa…urgh, my fujoshi brain is swirling with ideas. maybe that's why my character became crazy since I get confused between the other story I'm writing.

But no worries. I edit them all out when I'm done.

: I really want to hurry and reach the part for my Fujoshi fantasies as well as unravelling Shindo's state of affairs and the angst part, but got to take this slow. :)

note: I edited this chapter and change some of the parts...I wasn't satisfied before

== I'm not sure how to continue the story... I'm writing another fanfic for karma/nagisa and I get confused on the characters- i did make a plot line so I could follow and won't get lost.

Just sayin' I'm taking it slow to update, but I'm definitely writing.

Chapter 10-Lying

~Sai POV~

Watching everything in the sideline- I'm used to it

Riding a car-i'm used to it

Seeing Hikaru beat someone- i got used to it

BUT

I was completely NOT used to Hikaru, kissing a boy and manhandling someone.

Of course i was impressed back at the Dojo, but mishandling a boy that looks like he can't even hurt a fly-literally.

That's unusual of Hikaru.

I saw a new side of him.

Another side of Hikaru

I haven't seen before

A cold and cruel Hikaru

Hikaru's mind is like a pandora's box.

Its forbidden but everytime I attempt to read his mind.

I see another side of hikaru & a place inside his mind with vast darkness. I could only take a peek or I'll be in trouble if it opens all the way.

I thought they were just normal thoughts, like everyone else, but seeing Hikaru act like that for the 1st time. Just proves to me

Those mere thoughts , if Hikaru decide to do it or if his self control loosen. He will, surely, take a life if he pleases it.

And that's what scares me, the fact that he's dangerous, the fact that he knows, and the fact that no-one, not even his family knows.

A real living ticking time bomb.

' Hey'

Hikaru spoke out-loud, which scared the soul out of me- oh wait, i'm already a soul

I look at Hikaru.

He was just looking out the window, but his eyes were fixed on Touya's reflection on the tinted glass.

' Aren't you gonna contact your parents?'

Touya look up and look as if he was about to be sent to jail, and was given the chance to bid farewell to his family, one last time before he met hell.

'can i?'

Touya look at Hikaru, asking for permission

Hikaru frowned.' I'm not kidnapping you. I'm just getting you cleaned up before i return you to your parents.

' the way you phrase it, made it look like I -'

Touya swallowed the remaining words, afraid of Hikaru's reaction.

Hikaru frowned again

Touya made no time to waste, fished out his phone and contacted his parents. I move closer to him and leaned in, trying to listen to their conversation.

' Good evening mom'

' Oh hey akira.

Oh wait- are you gonna tell me that you're gonna be late going home and will stay in the Go salon and wait for that boy again'

' uhm- well- that's how it is.

Sorry mom.

I'm missing dinner again, but don't worry i'll just eat at a nearby restaurant and play a few games.

If he's not coming, i'll go home by then'

' oh- okay.

Well, take care akira. Don't forget to stay warm and take care of your health. I love you'

' Love you too mom'

Touya ended the call and place his phone inside his bag.

' Don't worry.

Even though you can't have dinner in the restaurant you stated. I'll let you eat dinner before i send you home.

So you won't look like a starving boy and worry your mother.'

Touya and I look at Hikaru.

'Hikaru? -is that you?'

I proclaimed excitedly, all the tension I'm feeling gone.

Is hikaru back to normal?

I move closer so my face is inches to his face.

Hikaru had his eyes close as he leaned on the window.

' You shouldn't lean your head on the window when your sleeping in a car'

Touya muttered softly.

' Hikaru? Are you sleeping?'

I asked him, as i poke his face

Of course he won't feel it.

Hikaru made no response and was still.

The inside of the car became quiet

The only thing you can hear is the sound of the engine and the busy streets outside the car-and me.

Then when i thought this car ride is the longest i've ever ridden.

The car halted.

Hikaru's eyes flutter open.

He grabbed his bag and opened the door.

' We're here'

He announced and got out of the car

The chauffeur opened The door from Touya's side and i saw Touya hesitated before he step out.

He was clutching his bag for dear life as if it were a shield to protect him from Hikaru.

Although that's useless.

Hikaru hang his bag on his arm lazily and gestured Touya to follow him.

Touya did but with much hesitation as he took every step towards the Mansion -WAIT A MINUTE!

' Hikaru! STOP RIGHT THERE! Where are we?

THIS- is not your Mansion nor the Mitani Household!

'Where is this place?'

I asked-confused

' Did the chauffeur made a mistake?'

' he didn't'

Hikaru gestured to the chauffeur and he nodded in understanding.

I was completely left in the dark.

' Hikaru, explain to me where are we now?'

I pouted and bugged Hikaru.

Right in front of us, is a white western-designed house, you can see in magazines across the border.

I've seen one like this when I saw Hikaru's mom one time, leisurely flipping on the pages.

The House wasn't as big as the Mansion or the Mitani Household but it's still bigger compared to an average House.

There was a big warehouse for the garage and a garden at the back and is that a HELIPAD!

I gawked at the sight.

Although the House was big.

the whole place look secluded-rather- its empty.

I could feel no living soul around the place.

Although the place look maintained-there was no one around.

I could probably picture zombies or evil spirits- like the ones Hikaru like to watch.

Seriously! 'm being influenced by Horror movies.

And this setting looks so much the same in one of the movies I watched.

I ran over to Hikaru's side and clung to him.

' Hikaru..', I whined, ' This place look so much alike the one in the movies'.

I told him.

But hikaru ignored me and grabbed Touya's arm, as he dragged him inside the house.

Touya turned pale.

Who wouldn't!

The boy who assaulted- scratched that- warned to rape you is dragging you inside an empty House- which looks like a horror house-must look scary. even I as a ghost-

for the 1st time, being a ghost made me glad for other reasons.

Hikaru should be glad he has a ghost as pretty as me. If he ended up being possesed by an evil spirit or a distorted ghost.

How scary would it be.

'You should treat me better', I said out-loud.

Touya kept dragging his feet which pissed Hikaru and shoved Touya on his back as he lead him inside.

completely ignoring me.

he dropped him gently on the sofa and throw their bags on the seat across.

He went up the stairs and came down carrying a towel and a change of clothes [ a Kimono]

he then placed it on the seat next to Touya.

' I only have a Kimono since I don't have any clothes prepared for guest and I don't want to let you borrow mine, so change into this'

I could see Touya swallowed his saliva and sat still, looking down his feet.

' What do you intend to do with me?',

the boy asked, as beads of sweat trickle down his temple.

Hikaru with an unreadable expression sighed.

' I already said I'll clean you up and fed you didn't I? what more do you think I would do to you?'

he raised his voice, sounding annoyed.

Touya opened his mouth as if to say something, but close it again, thinking better of himself.

I pat Touya's head.

' Come on Hikaru! Don't scare the poor boy anymore'

I scolded Hikaru, while spreading my arms to shield Touya.

Although just the 2 of them alone in this hunted-I mean empty house, must have unnerve him.

' Shut Up Sai. I'm not trying to scare him -I mean -I wasn't intending to scare him-Geez'

he reasoned. while undoing his necktie.

I rolled my eyes.

' Right!-Of course you are'

I said so-matter-of-fact

' Hey-are you just gonna sit there and waste time. we don't have the whole night-'

something in Hikaru's mind flashed and he approached Touya

' unless of course you're trying to stall time and wait for me to do something to you?'

Hikaru whispered to Touya's ear.

I could see Touya's ear turned red and he pushed Hikaru's chest with a force, hikaru loose his footing and fell to the floor

Touya not even lending helping hand to the fallen Hikaru, grabbed the Towel and Kimono,

and with a blushing face, dashed out of the living room.

' Hey! The bathroom's upstairs-The farthest to your left'

He called after him while sitting on the floor he have fallen into.

'Try not to enter any rooms', Hikaru added in a loud voice.

There was no reply from Touya but after we heard a door slammed.

I assumed that Touya found the bathroom.

I then looked at Hikaru, with I'm-ready-to-scold-you-expression!

Wait - I don't know what I look like, but a scolding expression just like Akari does when she scolds Mitani and Hikaru, may be the face I look alike now.

' Now that Touya is gone- Can you tell me where we are right now?'

I placed my hands to my waist and asked in a stern voice.

He stood up and dust off his pants.

' Oh-i forgot to tell you-

since I'm attending highschool, going in and out of the Mansion would be suspicious for my background.

This is also to ensure that the Media sent to spy on the Mansion would be kept in the dark about me.

So my parents look for a House between the Mansion and the school and the only house that met the requirement is this- '

Hikaru walked to the Kitchen as he continued explaining to me- like it was the most natural thing to do. Even though this is his first time in the house, he clearly moves as if he knows every nook and cranny there is in this house.

' This house was owned by a wealthy family that have fallen under a great debt, luckily, one of 'the Mitani household' organization was in charge of ensuring the loan.

My brother made an agreement with Oyabun and the head of this house.

In exchange for his family not being sold- he would allow his house to be occupied by a member of the household as insurance until they pay back their debt, on the other hand.

rather than being killed or sold- they would work under the Mitani household-

my brother didn't tell me what job but I'm pretty sure its pretty interesting cause Oyabun gave them 3 years- the same as the time I would be in highschool to pay off their debt in full.

In short, the family was thrown out of the picture, I could pretend I was "the illegitimate son" of a mistress hidden from the world and since my dad's family have to relocate somewhere due to their business - I- an illegitimate child - was finally permitted to live at this house while they were away.

Then the story about a Junior Martial arts Champion having a medical illness, who was on leave for 3 weeks, who don't have anyone to take care of him, the people would pity the child and they wont question me any further-story click'.

Hikaru made himself busy at the Kitchen, I payed no attention since my mind was still swirling from all the information which I could not comprehend.

' How did the Martial arts Champion with an illness CLICK?!'

I asked - after all Hikaru's explanation-this is the part I simply can't understand.

Hikaru easily flick an Okonomiyaki and look up at me.

' It just did'

was his intelligent reply.

I felt a vein popped out of me, even though I'm a ghost. S8nce hikaru is smart, he explains everything in a clear tone. But since he's too smart, he expects them to understand immediately all he says, which is impossible.

' IT DIDN'T!'

i shouted at his face. Hearing his reply, my lid flip and i just want to hit hikaru with a fan.

I know his brain works faster than an average person, but he should consider explaining it to a more easy to understand context.

Hikaru scratched his temple. He's face looked as if explaining further is a bother and he's considering some alternative explanation.

then he sighed, feeling resigned.

' Don't you think an illegitimate child, whose a Champion in Junior mArtial arts with a medical illness feels like a credible plot story.

the family thing is breakfast for the media, the Champion part as dinner for the school board, and the illness part for dessert as a great topic for gossip.

For an average mind- or even a brilliant mind-would find this story both unfortunate and inevitable for a young boy of my age. They would not expect anything-

I made everything absolutely sure.'

Hikaru looked at the Dish his making and smiled mischievously-everytime he smiled so deviously like that- i just felt bad for the party involved in this scheme.

' Then having the same name Shindo -would be just another coincidence and talk of the town but it would completely mislead them from the real truth-'

he picked up a plate and transferred the dish.

Prepared a dish for 2, then arranged the table. until everything is perfect.

' It's perfect'

He said cheerfully.

I don't know whether he meant the meal or the plan.

I was about to ask when I notice Touya coming down the stairs, slowly not trying to make a sound, but since I'm a ghost , I could sense him right away.

Touya entered the Dining room which is divided by an island from the Kitchen.

His attire took me by surprise.

' Hikaru-Hikaru'

I called his attention, when I turn around, Hikaru had already removed his apron and was carrying a tray for the tea.

He set it on the table and poured 2 cups.

He continued doing this, paying no attention to Touya - who walk towards the table.

' T-Thanks for lending me the Kimono and for the b-bath'

he expressed shyly.

Touya draw near and his vision focus on the food Hikaru laid on the table.

He eyed it warily.

'Don't worry I didn't put anything on your food-'

Hikaru told him as if sensing Touya's doubt. And to prove his point, he tested it.

Hikaru waited for Touya to sit down.

I can see it took a lot of mental delibiration before Touya decided to sit down and eat.

Hikaru frowned but sat down across him.

The dish was simple, although its the 1st time I saw Hikaru cook.

There was an Italian spaghetti which I don't know how he made it- i only saw him popping open a pack of noodles, how he made it to look like a spaghetti, made me wonder.

There was maki and tofu as side dish.

Serve with Tea.

It's a Japanese mixed italian dinner- albit-still delicious. Just looking at it made me drool. How I wish i could taste it.

'Hikaru- its the 1st time i saw you make a meal and i wasn't expecting it would look this good-'

I hovered on top of Hikaru's head, while praising him.

'I really want to taste it, too bad I'm a ghost- so how is it? Does it taste delicious'

I asked hikaru as i feel a drool escape my lips, well figuratively.

' of course its delicious- i made it-nothing I made would look less perfect'

Here we go again. He's ego has taken over again.

' i don't want to hear your opinion anymore! ', I shouted on his ear which made hikaru cringed.

' hikaru - i want to hear touya's opinion on this - so go on...ask him'

I told him giddily.

He just frowned and voiced out a NO mentally.

'Oh come on- Hikaru-Hikaru-HIKARU'

I whine beside him as I hovered on all sides.

I could see hikaru grip the spoon with much force. Good thing it didn't break.

Touya remained oblivious and continue eating. Trying to focus on the food and not on Hikaru. It seemed to me like he's in a hurry to gobble down the food.

'HEY! -' Hikaru broke the silence.

I'm just saying. Despite my continues annoyance to Hikaru side.

In the physical world. Touya and Hikaru said no word that the only thing you can hear is an awkward silence-except me.

When Hikaru broke the silence, Touya -to his shock drop the spoon he was holding on the table.

Hikaru smirked. 'You should learn to relax- i'm not gonna do anything to you in this situation- so ease your mind about it.'

Hikaru told Touya as he reached out the spoon Touya drop.

He walk over to the counter and throw it on the sink, while he took out a new spoon. He got back and put on Touya's plate.

Now that i notice it.

Hikaru move as if he was used to this.

But i don't understand how.

Back at the Mansion. There are servants who obeyed his beak and call. I haven't seen Hikaru enter the kitchen nor serve a guest.

I was thinking seriously about this i hadn't notice my mouth was wide open.

Hikaru glanced at me and snorted. As if my expression simply entertained him.

Although to Touya, it would look as if it was directed at him.

Touya face flushed. I move closer to get a good look at Touya.

He look so cute when embarrassed.

' Hikaru-look -Touya's blushing face is soooo cute'

I exclaimed.

Hikaru look up and Touya quickly look away to avoid his gaze.

Hikaru flashed an amused smile then it disappeared quickly.

' geez- you're not a kid anymore. You should learn to hold the spoon properly ...or'

Hikaru look at Touya. ' Does chopsticks the only thing you know how to use'

I could see Touya's ear flushed red and he slammed the table.

'Don't mock me- I-I was just surprised a while ago- i know how to hold a spoon- Don't treat me like a kid'

Touya exploded in annoyance.

Perhaps due to Hikaru's teasing, Touya forgot his fear and it was replace by a reflex to defend himself.

'Guess you're not a push-over after all'

Hikaru muttered. Then he stood up and lock eyes with Touya.

' are you done eating?' Was all he said after Touya's outburts.

Touya who was prepared to be slammed down by Hikaru, completely took it by suprised.

He nodded and Hikaru while ignoring his recent outburts cleared the dishes.

I'm suprised touya ate all the food Hikaru prepared- Or he ate them all fearing hikaru would get angry if he leave leftovers.

I still haven't gotten an answer to my question before and I was hoping Hikaru would ask Touya.

' i'll just clear the dish then I'll send you home afterwards.'

Hikaru told him calmly. well, guess my question would stay unanswered

Not knowing how to reply.

Touya just nodded.

Hikaru walk back to the Kitchen. He put on his apron and started washing the dish.

I sat beside Touya who has remained sitting down.

' Don't worry Touya- its not only you who thought Hikaru is weird , even I think so.

Its my 1st time seeing him cook , clean and even wear an APRON!

I can totally understand your thoughts.'

I chattered to Touya. Though I know he can't hear me.

'Hey Sai- you know Touya can't hear you right?'.

Hikaru told me without turning around.

'I don't care- just the thought counts'

He laughed softly.

And continued washing the dishes.

' uhm-"

The voice was so low i have to rethink who said it.

I thought it was hikaru but when i listened again. I notice it came from Touya.

The boy clench and unclenched his fist uncomfortably as if he has something to say.

'Touya- what is it?'

I asked him. He could not hear me so i called Hikaru.

'Uhm- can i ask a question?'

Touya's voice was calm, he must have calmed himself before speaking.

Hikaru turned around while wiping his hand with a clean cloth.

He must be done washing, since he throw the towel to a basket and hang his apron.

'I'll answer it if its not something stupid',

He replied. Touya stopped as if he considered asking the question

Then with his resolved back, he asked.

' i haven't seen anyone since i entered your house.

Is your family away or something?'

Hikaru frowned. Even I did.

That question was something.

Of course Hikaru explained it to me but i don't think Hikaru was expecting someone to ask this question.

Or rather, i don't think he was intending to let a person inside the house, at all. Only Touya was the exception- I mean he's

the first guest of the house after all.

I held my breath- wait i don't have a breath-hahahah silly me-

Hikaru shrugged.

' They're gone. I'm the only one living here right now'

He answered nonchalantly. He was walking towards Touya without a sound.

Then he put his arms on the side of the chair and leaned.

'Why? Does it make you uneasy with just the 2 of us here?'

Hikaru voiced changed to a playful but seductive tone.

my jaw dropped. Hikaru # 2.

I already gave up trying to understand Hikaru's change of character, so I decided to name it.

Touya quickly shook his head.

Hikaru smirked as his eyes glistened with mischief.

Hikaru close his eyes and let go of the chair.

He used his hip to lean on the table

And told Touya to get dress.

Since he did as he promised, its time to send him home.

Touya without waiting to be told again, quickly dash out of the room and head upstairs.

I didn't know where he put his clothes since Its also my 1st time in this house.

After Touya leave- I'll demand Hikaru to give me a tour of the place.

When Touya leave the room, Hikaru pick up his phone, he placed on the counter.

He dialed a number and ordered someone to get the car ready.

After a few minutes, Touya came down, dress back on his uniform.

' do you take this long to get ready- Geez' hikaru complained at him as he grabbed Touya's wrist and hurried outside.

'Wait, my bag'

Touya tried to head back inside.

'I already throw it inside the car. Now hurry up'

He shoved Touya inside the car.

He gave instructions to the driver.

'This guy know every nook and cranny of Japan. So just tell him where your house is and he'll head off without getting lost.

Don't worry.'

Hikaru told Touya. Then before Touya could reply, he close the door and step back as the car drove off slowly.

When the car was off a distance.

I turned to face Hikaru.

' Now how about a Tour on this hunted house attraction Hikaru'

I smiled merrily.

Hikaru smiled like I know he would.

'Sure- ' he head back inside, ' where do you want to start?'

' the 1st floor then after i want to check out the bath- i wondered if they have a jacuzzi too and is the bed soft.

And how many rooms do you have?'

I trailed off as I followed Hikaru inside.

Then I remembered Touya and the Kimono he's wearing.

'OH! Hikaru, do you have any change of clothes.'

Hikaru who was texting someone press Send, then look at me.

' my clothes will be sent here tomorrow.

I just informed them I'll be staying here earlier than planned.

So i have no change of clothes Sai'

'OOH! then how about you use the one Touya wore',

I floated towards the stairs.

I mean nothing about what I said.

I just want Hikaru to take a warm bath and have a change of clothes.

Hikaru smiled and pulled his hair up, thinking about something.

He sometimes do this when he's amused or suppressing himself or just thinking about something deeply while looking cool. Not that he intend to, I bet he doesn't realize it himself.

' I'm not a pervert'

He muttered.

'Huh- what do you mean? I wasn't trying to say-',

Hikaru laughed cutting me from my explanation.

He was laughing as if something was absolutely hilarious. I mean -absolutely.

What could have been so funny.

I tried to peek into Hikaru's thoughts but he close his mind and I was left to wonder.

Then i floated beside him and I inhaled deeply.

'HIKARU!'

I screamed at the top of my lungs.

Hikaru reflexively covered his ears and croached down.

'SAI', he was shaking angrily.

'What was that for- you made my ear go buzzing'

'Hmph- you deserved it',

I frowned and turn my back at him.

'What-'

I don't know what expression he's making right now. But i won't be beat. I'm resolved to be angry at him.

I hear him sighed deeply with resignation.

'Fine then- then I guess i take it as you won't bother me anymore about GO-'

I cringed. I heard him walk to the stairs.

'WOW- finally a load off my shoulder'

He sang merrily.

I close my eyes.

This 2 faced devil.

'Hikaru~~~ '

I dash to hug him.

'Forgive me hikaru. I was acting selfish and well- its because you suddenly laugh and won't listen to me...

That's not what i'm trying to say- I MEAN PAY ATTENTION TO ME!',

I raised my voice at the last part.

When i open my eyes.

Hikaru was smiling at me, with that gentle smile.

' Sai- ever since i woke up and met you.

I've been watching you all this time.

What made you think that I was ignoring you-that's ridiculous?'

He said it in his most adorable style of saying.

I'm really too weak to this gentle Hikaru. I really prefer Hikaru # 1.

' well- you were not paying attention to me and was gonna say your not gonna attend my whims and won't play GO'

My eyes got all wet,

Hikaru lifted his hand and attempt to wipe the tears on my eyes. But his hand just passed through.

' i was kidding-

You know- how am I gonna ignore you when you look so real in my eyes.

I would lately realize your a ghost when my hand passed through you like this.'

Hikaru's right hand just passed through my cheeks as he attempt to touch me. He frowned and retracted his hand.

He then ascended up the stairs and head to the 2nd floor;

' but its like since only i could see you then i guess you could say i have another secret- a special one-you'

He turned his head and smiled at me..

I don't know if i was blushing or because i cried a while ago but i really felt my cheeks become hot.

' if you say it like that then I guess I'm pretty am special- you should be glad this great Go genius ended up with you instead of a distorted ghost or evil spirits',

I announced happily as I danced around shaking my butt.

' that's not-'

Hikaru stopped what he was about to say when he saw me dancing happily.

' well- whatever- so long as you're happy.'

Then Hikaru and I toured the house.

Although it was already past 12 when we're done.

Hikaru went to take a bath as I enjoyed blowing out the bubbles.

I'm just so happy they had a bubble bath.

Since Hikaru don't have a change of clothes.

He used the blanket to cover himself.

I persuade him to just use the used Kimino

But he throwed it to the ramper and that settled our conversation.

I was just worried-what if he catch a cold.

Then my time to play GO will be limited.

And i'm scared of Hikaru getting sick, might he end up like Torajiro.

Yeah-let's better avoid that from happening.

I nodded to noone in particular.

I want Hikaru to live a long life so that I could play GO as much as I like.

Touya POV ~

When the driver, drove away from Shindo's house.

I quickly instructed him to the direction of my house.

My house is quite far from the school since I have to take a subaway, when nobody would fetch me from school.

The ride home was silent since the driver isn't very chatty compared to manager-neesan, who never stops chatting about anything.

I played with the button on my sleeve or just look out the window and enjoy the scnenery, although it was pretty dark and the only scenery outside was the commercial lights on the commercial buildings.

Japan has become pretty modern, with the innovation of technology and such, and that also applies to GO. Many higher dans and young players, adapt a modern GO and use new technique.

I remembered how Shindo played, I've never seen a GO played like that.

After the game, I research about the technique that he uses, but nothing seems to appear, everywhere I look.

But the way he plays feels like going against an ancient Go style.

Shindo's GO is so unique I want to play GO with him until my curiosity is satisfied.

But then I remembered what happened today,

'URgghhh- I don't get him'

I complained loudly, that the driver look up to check on me on the rearview mirror.

I gave him an apologetic smile and buried my head on hands again.

seriously- if he wasn't freaking strong I could have smacked him on the face and run for my life the quick chance I got.

But no- he just simply pinned me on a wall and attempt to ra-….the thought sent shivers down my spine.

That jerk. 2 faced liar. Devil. That psycho-

'are you alright Mr. Touya/'

My rambling thoughts was interrupted by the driver, who asked me while looking at the rearview mirror.

'I-I'm fine. Don't worry', I assured him.

I must have looked like a wreck. If not, then he would not have asked how I am

How am I? I'm about to go crazy!

'Please don't let the young- ahem- Mr. Hikaru bother you- ', the driver swerved to the left smoothly, ' He may act rude to you but he means well'.

Huh! In what basis does he think 'means well', if you only knew what happened before I was shoved into this car. Then you wouldn't so lightly say ' he means well'.

' I'm not sure what 'means well' in his action is', did I sound calm, ' I mean how can you stand his attitude!', I unconsciously raised my voice but I didn't care, ' If I was as big as you, I would have smacked him in the face'. There my real honest thoughts finally laid out in the open.

The driver only chuckled as I spilled out all my anger to him.

I felt a vein popped out of my head.

'did I say something funny?'

'hehhe-No—just—ahem-', the driver prospered himself, ' I don't think I could win , in a 1 on 1 fight against Hikaru- even though I look stronger than him- ' , he stopped at the intersection.

I looked up, I notice that we are almost near my house.

' You should have seen him throw the Ya—guys from the Dojo. They were professionals and he just flipped them like they were made of paper. Heck! I swear the man weigh more than me….and he just-'

I could see the driver's eye sparkle as he told me about Shindo flipping some older guys. And the look of awe on his face.

If he knew how 2 faced Shindo is, would he still think of him as some superior being.

The thought of Shindo being superior erks me.

' Just you wait- I'll show him. I definitely beat him in GO'.

I said out loud.

The driver looks up at me with a confused look.

' GO. You're gonna challenge him in Go?'

I nodded.

The driver grinned.

' Then maybe you could win against him in that area. Mr. Hikaru never plays GO'

I looked up. Surprised. There was no hint of lie in his voice, rather he looks sure I'm gonna beat Shindo in GO.

' are you sure you know what GO is?' I asked doubtful.

'hahah—of course I know what GO is—I play it with the guys at the Man-I mean at the agency-hahah'

I frowned. Now this is getting weird.

' Then since you know, I'm sure Shindo nows how to play GO, I mean its pretty famous'

The driver scratch his chin.

'Nah- I bet my luck Mr. Shindo doesn't even know what GO is. If he does, I bet the other guys would tell me. They're quite close with him-' the driver became silent as if thinking about it for a moment. ' YUP- I'm positive he doesn't know GO- even how to play it', he looks at me and beamed.

'If you surprise and challenge him to a GO match, I bet, you'll get a complete victory against him.', the driver was confident with his words.

Does he not know that Shindo plays Go –and is pretty good at it-I L- just think about what happened before made me puke. How I hated it. Just remembering what happened made my blood boil.

Then was winning against me a fluke. Was it just some tough luck. I was disgusted by the thought that he won just by luck.

Then it could not be his 1st time playing Go…I could feel cold sweats dripping down my temple.

" Impossible- he said it was his 1st time playing Go"

It felt like cold wind have slapped me in the face.

It can't be. When I heard the manager say it, I thought Shindo was lying but hearing the driver, who have known Shindo before I do, look at me as if he was so sure that Shindo never played – much like touch a GO board in his life, proves to me….

'How can he play like that when it was his first time', I muttered softly. I embrace my body.

Impossible. I who have trained over and over, who lost and won against my father….I-

How could I-against him…

The car halted.

'Mr. Touya. We have arrived at your house', the driver announced.

I look up and yes, we have safely arrived at my house.

I hear him say something, but I didn't care.

I thank him then dash out of the car and bolted to my room.

I just want to be alone.

~HIKARU POV~

The next morning.

I woke up by the sound of the doorbell ringing me awake.

I sleepily got up, put on some on my school pants, I didn't bother to put on my shirt.

I sleepily head to the front door.

'Hikaru—Good-!'

I was greeted by an excited voice of a male.

The voice shot me awake and I quickly slammed the door.

Sai hovered beside me. He's pretty face was painted with worry.

I smiled trying to ease his worry.

' What's wrong Hikaru? Who was that outside?', he asked

I frowned. I was expecting one of the maid to arrive before anyone from the neighborhood sees them, but I wasn't expecting him to come.

I check my appearance, messy, topless, bed hair. I sighed.

He already saw me looking like this, how bad could it be.

I opened the door and greeted the person outside warmly.

' Good morning Haru-nii', I showed him my most warmest smile.

He started taking pictures of me the moment I opened the door , while looking me up.

'Bloody hell—', I cursed as I tried to cover the lens of the phone.

' what do you think you're doing?', I shouted angrily.

'Now, now-yeah-wait-oh yeah!', he didn't stop until he could take a decent photo of me-topless at that.

' coming here unannounced is worth it', he pressed the screen a few times and I could swear , I saw a SENT word being press. ' Now to spread the word'

I lunge, aiming to destroy the sorry excuse of a phone- I swear I'm gonna sue the global network whose responsible for making the net so fucking fast. By the time the phone was in my hold, my picture has already become viral.

' you couldn't have sent it to Akari and Nee-san, did you?', I asked him angrily.

My brother simply smirked and shrugged his shoulders, trying to look unaffected.

' No-No way-DAD!', after the words left my mouth, my brother's lips twisted to a devilish grin.

'Bloody-', in lightning speed and a force to match a weightlifter. I crushed the phone with 1 hand.

'oops- my hand slipped', I said sarcastically and glared at my brother.

'it's early morning and you're too bored to decide to catch me off guard and stole a pic of me.', I added.

I was planning to start my day quietly but No- my dear brother just have to ruin it for me.

'can't help it, mother's order', he replied ignoring my sour mood and walk towards the living room and settled himself to the couch.

When I heard that it was mother's order. I stopped talking and glared at my brother.

' how much did you sold me for?'

Without looking up, he raised his hand and showed his 5 fingers.

I gawked.

' 5 gran for my topless photo'

' 10 gran for your nude photo, she needs a model for her new fashion line,', he got up and head to the kitchen.

He acts as if he owns the place. I'm not surprise when my brother took out a cup from the left cabinet above the sink and poured coffee on it. 'but since I only got a photo of you topless and your bedhair looking out of place, I can only trade this for 5 ….unless of course you pose naked for your older brother.'

You-go-die. I showed him the language and ended the last part, using my thumb, draw a horizontal line to my neck.

My brother gave me a thumbs…down!

'Sorry to disturb you Young master. We've already finish delivering your clothes.

I have set the luggage upstairs. I would have wanted to unpack for you but since you told us not too, I left it inside your room. ", the maid bowed, ' if there is still something you need, please tell us'.

I Scanned the room.

The place was already spotless, they already cleaned it prior to my arrival. The Ref. has been loaded with food, cooking utensils –checked. Washing Soap-checked. Milk –checked..loads of them.

I don't drink coffee but I prefer the decaf one.

I just told them to bring the luggage I left at home. So far there was nothing else I need.

I nodded and waved them off. They bowed again and left.

I looked at my brother, who was now sitting calmly on the couch reading the newspaper. One of the maids must have given it to him.

' How long are you staying Haru-nii', I leaned at the Kitchen counter.

'Not for long, just checking out the place you're gonna live for 3 years'

'You already made yourself at home, Why not scram while you still can. I bet the neighbors are already coming out for their morning papers.', I walked towards him, ' and besides I have school today and I have to lock the house before I go out or people like you would start to make themselves at home.'

' why don't you hurry and wash your face, you might end up running late. Don't want your 2nd day to be in the Teacher's office'

I frowned. I definitely don't want that either.

With that in mind. I hurried upstairs to wash my face. My set of uniform, neatly hang in the closet.

I grabbed 1, I didn't care which one, it all look the same to me. And quickly get dress. I look around as I hurried to get change, making sure my brother isn't around, sneaking nude photos of me.

I already destroyed his phone, but seeing how he's so calm about it. I bet he has an extra hidden somewhere. That crook.

' Hikaru, come on- it's 30 minutes before the gate closes.', Sai reminded me.

I fixed my tie , grabbed my bag and head downstairs.

By the time I reach the living room, my brother was no longer there.

The coffee cup was neatly cleaned and placed on the drying tray.

The newspaper's gone from my sight.

If you were leaving, you should say goodbye.

I check the time- 25 minutes left.

I ran outside, locked the door and rode my skateboard to school.

Chapter 11 is Under scrutiny so I have to rewrite it again.

My fellow fujoshi friends really want to hasten up the Hot scenes.

I wish I could hasten it up, but read a lot of fanfic who made the Lemon scene appear 5 chapters before the ending...it was killing me. so I decided i just have to add the part bit by bit- foreplay- I can't have Hikaru raping Akira, when Akira hasn't developed his feelings yet.

and I want Hikaru to want Akira, so bad, he'll take his body...hahahaha!

Oh yeah! I'm still debating who gets to confess first. Any suggestions?

Fujoshi fever on the rise!

Note: Please leave your review or suggestions for the next chapter and how you want it develop. I could need a few ideas here and there.
