A/N: Happy New Year my dear readers!
I sincerely apologize for making you wait so incredibly long for this update.
As some of you know my life has been quite turbulent since summer last year for various reasons which didn't leave much time for writing.
However, things have quieted down now, but working full-time and studying at the same time and working on two fanfics (Eternal Moon and Sourire Encore Demain) on top of that isn't an easy task, so please bear with me.

Anyway, since I finally managed to update the story, I hope that you will enjoy reading this new chapter as much as I have enjoyed writing it…and get those tissues ready…you might need them.

Disclaimer: I don't own the Takumi-kun series or any of its characters. I only own this story and the special characters I invented for it.


Chapter 9

"Good morning Saki-san, I hope the meeting with your client went well," Gii's father was greeted by the young man behind the reception desk when he entered the company building just before noon.

"It went very well, thank you," the middle-aged man replied with a satisfied smile playing about his mouth before he made his way across the foyer over to the elevators and rode up to his office on the top floor.

"Welcome Saki-san, I have confirmed your lunch reservation for one o'clock. Your wife called from the airport about one hour ago to say that she will meet you directly at the restaurant instead of meeting you here," he was greeted by his personal secretary, "and I have put some documents which need your approval and signature onto your desk."

"Thank you," Saki senior stated smiling mildly and headed down the corridor towards his private office, stopping dead in his tracks when he perceived the voice of his assistant behind the door of the man's office which was standing slightly ajar. "…I see. Good luck in your endeavor. I hope that all will go smoothly and end well…yes…thank you…goodbye."

"That sounded like an important phone call just now," the head of the Saki family stated casually once he had pushed the door open and come face to face with his assistant. "May I ask who you were talking to?"

"I…I was just talking to my little niece," Kobayashi answered calmly with an unreadable expression on his face. "She has an important piano recital this afternoon and since I can't be there in person to support her, I gave her a phone call to wish her luck. Why are you asking?"

"Just out of curiosity. I thought you might have been talking to that rebellious, trouble-making son of mine," Saki senior replied truthfully, his calm and collected voice laced with a hint of suspicion. "That rascal simply disappeared after our last encounter without a word and I can't get any hold of him because he keeps ignoring my phone calls and since it seems that you two have grown quite close recently it wouldn't surprise me if Gii chose to contact you instead of me."

"I'm sorry sir, but I have no information as to where your son might be or what he might be doing," the so addressed man replied straight-faced, "but isn't he supposed to attend today's family lunch, but however that may be, should Gii choose to contact me for any reason, I will let you know."

"Thank you, I would appreciate that," Gii's father replied in a business-like, slightly commanding manner, making it clear that he was expecting full cooperation and gave his assistant a long, intense look before he finally left the room and headed to his own office.

"Incredible," he huffed as he sat down at his desk, "my own assistant is in alliance with my son and conspiring against me…what has this world come to." And with that the middle-aged man let out another disgruntled sigh and started sifting through the documents the secretary had mentioned earlier, from time to time muttering under his breath until he was interrupted by the sound of the phone on his desk beginning to ring about half an hour later.

"Yes, Saki speaking," he answered the call in a professional, business-like manner. "How can I help you?"

"Saki-san, this is the reception desk," the voice of a young woman reached his ear. "I just wanted to inform you that your driver will be here in five minutes."

"Thank you," the head of the Saki family replied politely, hung up the phone and started putting the paperwork away. Once he was done, he took a quick glance at his watch and grabbed his jacket from his chair before heading out and only about half an hour later he stepped out of his car in front of the entrance of an expensive looking restaurant.

He entered the building and almost as soon as he had set foot into the elegant, dimly-lit foyer he was approached by the head waiter. "Good afternoon Saki-sama, it's a pleasure to be able to welcome you again," the young man, who was neatly dressed in a black three-piece suit and a crisp white shirt, said smiling mildly. "We have prepared the usual table for you and your wife is already waiting for you, but your son hasn't arrived yet."

"Thank you," the so addressed man replied in an equally polite and manner and followed the waiter into the dining parlor which was elegantly decorated in the French style.

Several of the finely laid out tables available were occupied by elegantly dressed businessmen and women entertaining their business partners and clients or discussing business related affairs and the head of the Saki family was led to a table by the window in the back of the room that offered a beautiful view over the skyline of Tokyo and was occupied by a beautiful woman in her late forties, her natural auburn-colored hair and the bluish-grey almond-shaped eyes in combination with a pale, slightly yellowish skin tone giving away the fact that she had both Western and Japanese blood flowing through her veins.

"Good afternoon my dear," he greeted her with a warm smile on his lips and gently kissed her hand before he took his seat across from her. "How are you and how was your flight?"

"I'm fine my dear, thank you," misses Saki answered. "The flight was very smooth and comfortable…but how are you? You look a little tired."

"I'm fine, just the usual busy work schedule," Gii's father replied casually and offered his wife another smile, but enough about me. Tell me my darling, how was your Business English course? Was it worth leaving me alone for eleven long weeks? I felt very lonely without you by my side, you know?"

"I think it was very fruitful and I learned a lot, so I consider my time well spent, but more interestingly I received some surprises upon my return." The so addressed woman replied with a barely noticeable smile tugging at the corners of her mouth, but an unreadable expression on her beautiful face, completely ignoring her husband's flattering remark.

"First, the driver who picked me up at the airport congratulated me on the engagement of my son with the heiress of the Musashino Company and then, on my way here, Gii called me, apologizing and saying that he wouldn't be able to attend today's family lunch because he had to go to Kyoto on some urgent business and when I asked him what was so urgent that it couldn't wait until tomorrow he just babbled something about finding his boyfriend and bringing him back home, so would you have the goodness to explain to me what is going on?"

"A-Ano, for the future of our business a stable alliance with the Musashino family would be very beneficial and…," Saki senior began somewhat hesitantly, but was almost instantaneously interrupted by his wife.

"Don't tell me that you came up with some scheme to make Gii and Hayama-kun break up, in order to clear the way for an arranged marriage between our son and the daughter of your business partner," she said sharply and glared at her husband with a dangerous gleam in her beautiful eyes, "that you forced our son and his boyfriend apart."

"Ano…I…I," the head of the Saki family began to stammer and lowered his gaze under the scrutinizing stare of his wife, "I…well…"

"You have, haven't you," misses Saki exclaimed loudly in angry exasperation, causing many heads in the dining room to turn into her direction. "Saki Keiichi, how could you? How could you do such a cruel thing to our boy and poor Hayama-kun, two people who love each other more than anything in this world and have been in a strong, committed relationship ever since high school?"

"Considering the future of our company I thought…," Saki senior began in a defensive manner, only to be interrupted yet again in midsentence by his indignant wife.

"You thought, you thought," Gii's mother hissed angrily and drew in a sharp, deep breath. "I'll tell you what I think! I think that what you have done to our son and his boyfriend is cruel and absolutely unforgiveable! Gii might be the sole heir to our family fortune and your successor as president of the Saki Corporation, but that doesn't give you the right to use him as a pawn in some arranged marriage scheme which only serves the purpose of furthering your own ambitions! Gii isn't a commodity that can be traded back and forth as you see fit, he is a human being with feelings and emotions. He deserves to be happy and as far as he is concerned his happiness in life lies in living his life with Hayama-kun by his side as his significant other!"

"He deserves happiness, that's true, but as the heir to our business empire he has certain duties and obligations as well," the head of the Saki family stated defiantly, "and some of these obligations require sacrifices."

"Gii has always done his duties both as your son and your heir," misses Saki exclaimed huffily. "Over the years he has given up on many of his own wishes and dreams for the sake of following you in your footsteps and take over the Saki Corporation one day. He has sacrificed a lot already and has always obediently done what was expected of him, no matter what it was. The only thing he ever wanted and asked for was to be allowed to make his own choice regarding the partner of his future life and he has my full support in that matter, but you won't even allow him that tiny bit of freedom and forced him into an engagement he didn't want instead."

"Michiyo is a good girl and she makes a suitable wife for our son," the so addressed man argued stubbornly, but was unable to meet his wife's eyes. "She is sensible, well-educated and of a good family of high social standing."

"That's not the point," Gii's mother exclaimed, steaming with anger. "The point is that Gii has already made his choice and that choice is Hayama-kun and that he has gone to Kyoto to get back together with the one he loves, despite him knowing that you disapprove of that relationship, proves that our son is determined to protect what he has with that young man, even if it means that he will have to go up against you."

"What can a guy like Hayama offer our son," Saki senior snorted and scrunched up his nose in displeasure. "He is a nobody of average social standing from a simple middle-class family."

"Hayama-kun might be of humble background compared to Gii, but he is a good guy, honest and sincere in his affections for our son," misses Saki stated forcefully and in a factual manner, "and he offers our boy what he needs the most, which is love and emotional support and a shoulder to lean on. He is the rock Gii can confidently build on and so much more.

In short, I approve wholeheartedly of Hayama-kun as Gii's partner in life and the fact that you forced our son and his boyfriend apart in the full knowledge that it would break their hearts and bring them nothing but sadness and misery disgusts me more than I can say…and before you try to reason that the daughter of your business partner would make Gii forget about Hayama-kun and his feelings for him once they are married, let me disillusion you at once.

Gii has harbored tender feelings for Hayama-kun ever since he met him at one of Sachi's violin recitals when they were both still in elementary school. Hayama-kun makes Gii complete and vice versa. Those two boys share a bond so strong that nothing and nobody can weaken, let alone sever it and if you persist in your scheme, then you are going to lose your son and heir because if you force him into making a choice, he will definitely choose Hayama-kun over the succession.

As I said before I fully support that choice because Hayama-kun is a good guy who has made Gii a better person and I like him a lot. Also, just in case you should start thinking about disowning your son because of his actions in this matter, let me remind you that my family and I have a considerable fortune of our own to which you will never have access thanks to the terms of our marriage contract and nothing will prevent me from using that money to support Gii and Hayama-kun and help them prosper.

So, if you don't want our family to break apart, straighten out the mess you made and don't bother talking to me until you have!" And with that Gii's mother rose resolutely from the table, grabbed her purse and left the restaurant without giving her husband, who was looking shocked and flabbergasted, a second glance.

For several long minutes the head of the Saki family sat motionlessly on his chair, staring blankly into the distance before he finally reached into the pocket of his suit jacket and took out his mobile phone with trembling fingers.

oOo

Gii approached the entrance of Tokyo station, a grim look of determination on his face as he made his way to the ticket barriers where Misu, Akaike and Shingyouji were already waiting for him.

"Whoa Gii, why are you making such a scary face," Akaike asked carefully. "Did you get out of bed with the wrong foot this morning or are you trying to scare poor Hayama into returning to Tokyo with you?"

"To be honest, I have no idea yet, what I'm going to do and maybe that's why I'm so tense," the amber-haired youth sighed and drew in a deep breath. "I just know that I won't leave Kyoto without Takumi back by my side no matter what happens."

"Well, whatever you do, don't be too harsh on Hayama and don't reproach him for what he did," Misu piped in with a solemn undertone in his otherwise calm and quiet voice. "He saw no other way out and had I been in his shoes, I probably would have done the same thing."

"What do you mean," Gii asked narrowing his eyes in suspicion. "You know something, don't you?"

"You remember the….uhmm…computer expert I contacted after our last meeting, the guy who specializes in getting information that should usually be well secured and inaccessible for the average PC user," Misu stated in a hushed voice and Gii quietly nodded his understanding along with the other boys. "Well, he got back to me yesterday night and we had a brief, clandestine meeting at which he gave me those." And with that the former head of Shidou Gakuin's student council pulled a clear file from his bag which contained several pieces of paper. "Read and you will understand."

"Okay," the amber-haired youth murmured as he accepted the documents and began to study the content of the first page with a frown on his face. "What the hell," he exclaimed furiously only a short moment later and quickly sifted through the remaining pages with slightly trembling fingers. "Who the hell do my father, Musashino and their lawyers think they are?!"

"Gii, what's going on," Akaike asked carefully. "You have a look on your face as if you wanted to murder someone."

"I'm seriously considering that option right now," the so addressed heir of the Saki family hissed in a dangerously low voice, trembling like a leaf from the effort keeping his rage under control.

"This is an email from my father and his lawyer written to Takumi and they basically threaten Takumi by pointing out pointing out that there would be major consequences for him, his family our mutual friend Sachi, should he refuse to comply with my old man's wishes to leave Tokyo immediately and to sever all ties with me for good and for good measure they have attached copies of Takumi's scholarship, the working contracts of both his parents, the mortgage on their house and the letter of recommendation that Saki wrote to the scholarship board of the university, praising Takumi's talent, skill and ability. God knows what shady methods they used to get their dirty hands on all those documents."

"That…That is outrageous and despicable…to threaten Hayama-san in such a way," Shingyouji exclaimed angrily, visibly shaken by what hehad just heard. "It's absolutely unforgivable!"

"It certainly is," Akaike growled in disgust, "but unfortunately also very effective, especially since Saki senior and that guy have already demonstrated their power by seeing to it that Hayama's mother got laid off upon their bidding and then reinstated after Hayama had done what they wanted him to."

"Yes, Hayama knew only too well that what was written in that email were no empty threats," Misu piped in. "He is well aware that if the university would disallow him his scholarship based on some trumped-up charges, it would do a lot of damage to Sachi's credibility and reputation and that it might even force him to resign from his advisory position on the board of studies and he is equally aware that his family might well lose their entire livelihood, if he refuses to do Saki-san's bidding."

"So, he did what he thought was the only solution and left without a word," Shingyouji concluded with a sad and heavy sigh tearing from his lips. "How terrible he must be feeling right now."

"I won't accept this," Gii said forcefully, glaring with disgust and contempt at the papers in his hand. "I will never allow for things to end like this between Takumi and me. I will make him return to my side and we will pass through life together like we had promised each other we would and if this means that I will have to break with my father, then so be it! I'm not afraid of giving up on my status and wealth and of starting over as a mere commoner!"

"Then go for it Saki," Misu stated with a mild smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "Bring Hayama home."

"You know how stubborn Takumi can be so wish me luck," the heir of the Saki family replied heaving a sigh and then bid goodbye to his friends, receiving pats on his shoulders as well as words of reassurance and encouragement in return before he finally went through the ticket barrier and headed for the departure track of the Nozomi Shinkansen.

oOo

Carrying a bag full of groceries Takumi trudged down the narrow streets, his mind too occupied with gloomy thoughts for the ebony-haired youth to be able to appreciate the beauty and cozy atmosphere of his new neighborhood.

Heaving a sad sigh, he turned into the street in which his new home was located and only a couple of minutes later he had reached the front gate. With another sigh tearing from him he checked the postbox, finding nothing but fliers and advertisements in it, before he finally headed down the short, narrow path to the front door and entered the house, a house which despite its comfortable furnishings appeared nothing but cold and lonely to him.

Once inside he took off his shoes and went straight into the kitchen in order to store the groceries away, taking a quick glance at the clock. "I wonder whether the courier will deliver the documents today or tomorrow," he murmured and let his gaze wander to the kitchen table where he had placed the transfer application form for Kyoto University, he had printed out the previous night, a sight which made his heart grow even heavier than it already was and tears began to well up in Takumi's eyes, clouding his vision.

"What will the future bring," he sniffed and slumped down onto one of the dining chairs, burying his face in his arms. "Will I ever be able to return to Tokyo," he sobbed and let out a couple of painful sighs as his tears continued to fall and thus the ebony-haired youth sat quietly for a while, jumping a little when the sound of the doorbell reached his ears.

He raised his head and shuffled to his feet, hastily drying his tears as he made his way to the front door. "That must be the courier," he sighed and pulled it open, all color draining almost instantaneously from his features when he found himself face to face with his ex-boyfriend instead of the deliver man he had been expecting.

"G…Gii…y-you…h-how," he stuttered incoherently, his eyes wide as saucers with shock and disbelief and staggered a few steps back, holding on to the doorframe for dear life, fearing that his shaking knees would buckle and give in. "I…I…w-what…?"

"My dear Takumi, you look surprised," the heir of the Saki family calmly stated the obvious, even though he was feeling anything but calm inside and offered his beloved a gentle, slightly melancholic smile, exerting all his willpower to resist the urge and desire to pull the ebony-haired youth into his arms and shower him with kisses and caresses while holding him tight.

"I'm well aware of the fact that you probably didn't see this coming, but I think you know why I'm here," he continued quietly upon which Takumi reluctantly nodded his head in affirmation. "Did you really think that you could simply disappear on me like that, especially after having promised to have a proper heart to heart with me once I would get released from the clinic? Did you really think that I would just stand by and do nothing? Of course you could refuse to talk to me and shut the door right into my face, but then you would become a prisoner in your own home because I have no intention of leaving this place until we have talked openly and properly about this whole mess."

"G-Gii," the so addressed youth stammered helplessly and lowered his gaze, contemplating the situation for a moment, but knowing that there would be no use in arguing with the handsome upper-class man he reluctantly stepped aside and invited his ex-boyfriend inside.

"Can…Can I get you anything to drink," he asked shyly once he and Gii had reached the living room and quickly strode over to the refrigerator in the kitchen area while the heir of the Saki family took a seat on the sofa.

"A glass of gold tea would be nice," he replied politely, letting his gaze rest onto the man he loved with all his heart, offering him a gentle smile as he approached the living room suite and set two glasses of green tea down onto the coffee table before he sat down across from the amber-haired youth, the table serving as a barrier between them.

"This is a very nice house," Gii finally remarked after a long, seemingly endless moment of awkward silence. "Who does it belong to?"

"My gandma on my mother's side owns it, but she decreed in her will that it will pass to me one day," Takumi explained truthfully, keeping his eyes fixed upon the glass of tea in front of him, his heart so full with conflicting emotions that he found himself unable to meet the face of the man who meant the world to him, afraid of what he would see in the other's beautiful, hazel-colored eyes and of what it would do to him and his broken heart. "H-How…How did you find me here?"

"The student affairs office," Gii stated quietly. "Nobody knew anything regarding your whereabouts and we were all so freaked out about your sudden disappearance that we entreated the staff at the student affairs office to let us know if they would get any information regarding the location of your stay and luckily, they did. I guess they were just as worried about your wellbeing as we were. You gave us a really big scare, you know?"

"I…I'm sorry," Takumi stammered meekly and twisted his fingers. "I…I had planned on telling my family and Hasegawa-kun, but, but I…"

"…but you hadn't planned on telling any of our mutual friends," Gii helpfully finished the sentence upon which the ebony-haired youth merely nodded his head in silent confirmation. "Not even Toshihisa?"

"N-No, the budding violinist whispered so softly that his slightly trembling voice was barely audible. "I…I really wanted to, but…but I just couldn't."

"Because of my father and his blackmail," the heir of the Saki family asked gently and the words had barely left his mouth when Takumi's head shot up and the young man's eyes, which had once more grown wide, finally met his own. "Yes Takumi, I know what my dad has done to you," he continued in the calmest and gentlest manner. "I know everything. I know that during spring break he tried to bribe you with a large sum of money into breaking up with me, so that he could go ahead with his own plans. I also know that he and his business partner forced you into leaving me when they realized that bribery wouldn't get them anywhere, using your mother's job as a bargaining chip and I know that my old man used blackmail to make you leave Tokyo because he wanted you to disappear from my life."

"H-How did you find out," Takumi asked hoarsely and let out a pained sigh, huddling into his armchair as if he wanted to disappear in it. "Who told you?"

"After you had disappeared without Akaike told me everything you had revealed to him that night at the clinic," Gii answered truthfully, "and then I couldn't rest until I knew everything and when I finally heard about you being here in Kyoto, I lost no time to get on the Shinkansen and…"

"…and here you are," Takumi finished, his voice barely more than a whisper.

"Yes,here I am and I want you to return to Tokyo with me," the heir of the Saki family continued in a calm, yet resolute and determined manner. "I want you to come home and to return to my side. I want us to start over again, to pick up where we left off before I went to New York and to pass through the years and decades to come as a couple, just like we had planned to. I need you Takumi and being apart from you is unbearable. The fact that, in spite of the love we still have for each other, I'm not able to enjoy your company, that I can neither see your smile nor hear your voice…that I can't hold you in my arms and feel your warmth is killing me inside, so please Takumi…please come home, I beg you. I can't live without you."

"I…I…I don't see how I can do that," the budding violinist sighed dejectedly and hung his head. "Your engagement with Michiyo has already been made official and God knows what your father and his business partner will do to my family and all the other people I care about if I get back together with you. I don't want to cause a rift between you and your father, let alone put you into a position in which you would be forced to make a choice between me and your family."

"That rift is already there and it is not you but my father who created it by forcing me into an engagement I neither wanted nor had ever agreed to and he did it by forcing my chosen partner in life to break up with me," Gii stated firmly, his handsome face being unusually stern and solemn as he spoke, "but my dad has forgotten one important thing…he has forgotten that, while I'm his son and heir, this is my and that he can't just have me at his disposal as he deems fit for the sake of furthering his own ambitions in the international business world. My old man can plan as many arranged marriages as he wants, but I will never, ever enter into one because I have already chosen the person I want to spend the rest of my life with and I made that choice a long time ago. The one I want to pass through life with is you Takumi and you alone and if I get cast out for that, then so be it!"

"G-Gii…," the ebony-haired youth stammered helplessly, visibly shaken by his ex-boyfriend's powerful words, tears brimming in his beautiful eyes, clouding his vision, "don't say such a thing. If your father would disinherit you, you would lose everything…and…and then there is the succession…"

"I give a damn about the succession," the heir of the Saki family burst out and closed his eyes for a moment while pinching the bridge of his nose in order to regain his composure.

"I only followed my father's wishes because I considered it to be my filial duty," he continued in a calmer fashion, "that's all. My family's wealth and status as well as the prestige that comes with the name 'Saki' mean nothing to me in comparison with my feelings for you and I'll gladly abstain from them without blinking or thinking twice if it means that I can be with you in exchange…and you know why? Because giving up on and abandoning the person who means more to me than anything else in this world, the one who not only makes me happy but the best man I can be, the one who makes me feel full and complete for the sake of wealth, status and prestige is a price I'm not willing to pay. As much as I respect my family, I can live perfectly well without all the privileges attached to our family name, but I can't live without you and that's exactly what I told my father straight to his face before I came here."

"Oh Gii," Takumi sniffed heart-wrenchingly, his heart and mind being in turmoil, the tears that had been burning in the corners of his eyes now trickling freely down his pale cheeks. "I…I…my family a-and your fiancé…"

"Don't worry about them," the handsome upper-class man said in the most sincere and soothing voice he could muster. "Michiyo has already agreed to break off our engagement because she was just as shocked, disgusted and shocked as me when she learned how it was brought about. As for your parents and dear ones, my father won't dare to take any actions against them unless he wants to risk losing not only me but my mother as well. My mum is not only completely on our side but from a wealthy, influential and powerful family as well and that will make my father think twice about his future course of action, so neither you, nor your parents or friends have anything to fear because you would be under the protection of my mother and she loves you most dearly, you know?"

"G-Gii I…I don't know…I…," Takumi stammered helplessly and averted his gaze once more, wringing his hands in desperation and insecurity. "I…I…"

"Takumi, please look at me," Gii said in a gentle yet insistant voice, his heart beating so hard against his ribs that it hurt when his beloved finally raised his head again. "I know that you must feel scared after everything that has happened to you during these three months, but think about how we lived ever since we separated from each other," he continued solemnly, "both of us feeling incomplete, driving ourselves to physical exhaustion in order to kill the pain, missing each other to the point of going insane. What kind of life was that and if we really were to go our separate ways hereafter how do you think our lives would be like? They would be empty, miserable and lonely. You and I, we need each other. We are meant to be together and I just can't give up on what means the most to me! Aren't you the same?"

"Oh Gii, with a powerful man such as your father being against us, how can we live peacefully together," the budding violinist whispered pain-stricken. "How could we find happiness?"

"That's a discussion for another time, but I'm sure we will find a way," the heir of the Saki family said unperturbed, offering his beloved a mild, reassuring smile, "but first you have a decision to make. If you really want us to go our separate ways and end our relationship for good, then tell me right here, right now to my face that you can bear to live without me for the rest of your life and that you will be able to find happiness with someone else. Tell me that while looking me in the eye and I will leave right away and never darken your door again."

"N-No…no Gii, that's too cruel," Takumi sobbed, fresh tears running down his cheeks. "I…I could n-never do t-that…I…I can't stand without you and the thought of having to face a life without you being by my side is killing me inside…be-because I…I love you! I love you more than anything in this world!"

"Well, if that is truly the case, then…," Gii stated softly while rising to his feet and rounding the table, but let his voice trail off without finishing the sentence. Instead he knelt down in front of his beloved and holding his breath he opened his arms, his heart beating up to his throat as he anticipated the reaction of the man who meant the world to him.

For a long, seemingly endless moment Takumi looked quietly at the heir of the Saki family before he finally slid off the armchair and buried his face in the handsome upper-class man's chest with a heart-wrenching sob. "Oh Gii…m-my Gii."

"Takumi my love," the amber-haired student breathed softly and pulled his crying boyfriend close, his own eyes, clouding over with tears as he gently whispered sweet comforting nothings into the budding violinist's ears. "It's alright my love, it's going to be okay…we are going to be okay," he murmured in the most soothing manner, lovingly nuzzling Takumi's neck and thus several minutes ticked by until the ebony-haired youth finally raised his head.

"Gii," he sighed with a tearstained voice and met the handsome upper-class man's warm, affectionate gaze with his own.

"Takumi," the heir of the Saki family whispered sweetly and gently brushed his beloved's tears away with his thumb before he pressed his lips gingerly against his forehead. "Stay with me, please stay by my side."

"Gii," Takumi sighed once more, offering the amber-haired student a mild, yet loving smile and then he leaned in to place a sweet, lingering kiss onto Gii's lips, a kiss which the handsome upper-class man accepted only all too willingly.

"Does this mean you are coming home," he asked hopefully once the budding violinist had pulled away, "does this mean that you will give our dream of going through life together another chance?"

"Yes," Takumi replied softly replied softly and buried his face again in Gii's chest, wrapping his arms tightly around his boyfriend's middle, holding on to the heir of the Saki family for dear life. "Yes."

"My love, my one and only, Gii breathed in the most endearing manner and placed a long, ginger kiss onto the ebony-haired youth's hair before he finally rested his chin in the soft, black strands. "Come what may, I will never let you go again."

oOo

"So, our children are conspiring with each other and have decided to go against our wishes," Saki senior stated with a grim expression on his face, "to defy us and to repudiate their engagement."

"Yes, so it would seem," Musashino sighed, his voice laced with displeasure. "After she found out that we had forced Hayama to leave Gii's side my daughter made it very clear to me that she will not enter into a marriage with your son."

"My son, that stubborn, trouble-causing rascal told me something similar in regards to your daughter," the head of the Saki family growled, "it seems that for the sake of keeping the peace within our families we have to abandon our scheme of uniting them in a matrimonial alliance."

"Yes, unfortunately," Musashino stated solemnly. "But what are we going to do now?"

"Well, I would like to go through with our business deal as planned, except for the marriage of course, not only because Gii made a promise to your daughter to that effect but because I believe that this business arrangement will still be a profitable for the two of us and our respective companies, even without a matrimonial alliance through our children," Gii's father explained matter-of-factly and offered the other a mild smile. "What do you say?"

"I thank you Saki-san, I gladly accept and I hope that our business relationship is going to be a prosperous one, the so addressed man replied with a sigh of relief tearing from him and held out his hand towards the head of the Saki family which the business tycoon accepted almost instantaneously and thus the two men exchanged a firm handshake to seal the arrangement they had just agreed upon.

"Now that this business is settled, there is only one more thing left to do. We will have to make an announcement regarding the repudiation of our children's engagement. Since the media would be all over the news of them not going through with the marriage, blowing the issue out of all reasonable proportions, I think it would be prudent to make only an internal announcement," Saki senior mused thoughtfully. "I believe the best solution would be to announce the news only to the managers and the executives, together with the news that we are still going to honor the rest of the original business contract. That should reassure the managers as well as the shareholders and keep the mob quiet."

"I agree. I will summon a board meeting within the next few days at our head quarter," Musashino replied in a businesslike manner and then fell silent for a brief moment before he continued somewhat hesitantly. "Ano, if…if you don't mind me asking, what are you going to do about Hayama? My daughter claims that he your son is really determined to win him back."

"That's something I will have to think about," the Saki family replied quietly, letting out a deep sigh before returning his attentions back to the matters at hand and thus he and his business partner began to line out the details of the announcement that would be made to the managers and executives of their respective companies.

oOo

The sun was already about to set, coloring the sky in shades of red, yellow and orange, casting long shadows onto the streets in the neighborhood around the home of Takumi's grandmother.

"Are you feeling better," Gii asked sweetly and gently squeezed the hand of his beloved who was quietly walking next to him. "Are you alright?"

"Yes, I am," Takumi replied truthfully and offered the handsome upper-class man a warm, affectionate smile. "To go for a little afternoon walk was a brilliant idea."

"I'm glad," Gii stated smiling happily and gave Takumi's hand another loving squeeze. "Your grandmother's house is situated in a very nice area I must say. You never told me that you own such a nice home."

"Well, I didn't say anything because I'm not yet the lawful owner of the house. It still belongs to my grandmother, but when she decided to move into a retirement home, she allowed me to use it whenever I like," the ebony-haired youth explained his cheeks turning an adorable shade of pink. "There is a beautiful park near here. Shall we go and have a stroll through it?"

"I'd love to, so lead the way my love," Gii replied, offering his beloved a gentle smile and only about fifteen minutes later the two lovers were occupying a bench by the shore of the lake in the center of the park, one of its most scenic spots. A couple of majestic weeping willow trees shielded the bench effectively from curious eyes and for several minutes the two young men sat in comfortable silence, cuddled up to one another, looking out onto the water that was glistening like liquid gold in the setting evening sun.

"Ano, there is something I would like to confirm regarding the scheme of you transferring to Kyoto University," Gii eventually spoke up softly and pulled his one and only a little closer. My father is behind that arrangement as well, isn't he," he asked carefully and let out a frustrated sigh when Takumi quietly nodded his head in affirmation. "I could kick myself for not having thought about looking for you here in the first place considering that my family is closely affiliated with Kyoto, supporting the city and the university with very generous donations twice a year because my mother graduated from Kyoto Daigaku. Had I only thought of that, I would have found you much faster."

"Your mother…I only met her once at the graduation ceremony back at Shidou Gakuin," Takumi stated softly and let his gaze wander over the gently rippling water of the lake. "She seems to be an extraordinary woman."

"She certainly is and she is crazy about you," Gii explained in the most casual manner as if he was talking about the weather and couldn't help but break into light-hearted laughter when he noticed the adorable expression of surprise, bewilderment and confusion on Takumi's face. "Believe me…I'm not kidding."

"W-What do you mean," the ebony-haired youth asked curiously, his beautiful dark eyes having grown wide for the third time this afternoon. "I don't understand."

"Well, after you had met my mother and talked to her on graduation day, she was really impressed with you. You could say that it was love on first sight on her part," the heir of the Saki family chuckled. "Ever since that day she never missed a chance of telling me how sweet and wonderful you are and what a perfect couple we make. Whenever I meet my mum, she is just as interested in hearing news about you as in hearing news about myself. As far as my mother is concerned you already are a member of our family and she quasi adopted you already as her second son. She is really fond of you, you know?"

"I…I had no idea," Takumi stammered clumsily and tears began to form in his eyes. "I…I never thought that…"

"My mother supports us and our relationship one-hundred percent and she accepted you a long time ago as my chosen partner in life," Gii went on and placed a gentle kiss on his beloved's temple. "I dare say that she loves you just as much as she loves me and she will always help us in our fight to be able to go through life together as lovers and partners in crime."

"But Gii, how will Michiyo react when she finds out that we are back together," Takumi asked carefully. "You told me that she agreed to break off the engagement with you, but until that's done in some sort of official way, she is technically speaking still your fiancée."

"True, but like my mother Michiyo is completely on our side, so don't worry," the handsome upper-class man replied smiling mildly and gingerly squeezed Takumi's shoulder in the most reassuring manner.

"I'm relieved to hear that," the ebony-haired youth stated, a tiny, almost inaudible sigh leaking from his lips as he slightly shifted his position so that he could face his boyfriend properly. "Ano Gii, there is also something I would like to know," he began somewhat hesitantly. "How exactly did you end up in Ishihara-san's clinic? What happened exactly? When I asked Akaike about it the night we stayed by your sickbed he only mentioned something about exhaustion being the reason for your collapse."

"Well, in essence that's true," the heir of the Saki family replied after a moment of silence and turned his head to meet Takumi's inquisitive gaze with his own. "After our breakup seemed final, I started working like possessed, so that I wouldn't have any time to think about you," he explained truthfully and ran a hand through his amber-colored hair.

"On top of that I also searched for a way to get out of the arranged marriage deal with Michiyo and to get you back. Over all that I neglected myself more than was good for me. I didn't eat or sleep properly over a considerable period of time and alcohol played its part as well, the result being that Akaike found me in my…our apartment and called an ambulance as well as doctor Ishihara." With that the handsome upper-class man let his voice trail off and hung his head in shame and embarrassment, lifting it only back up to face his boyfriend again when the budding violinist's voice reached his ears. "Oh Gii, it's all my fault…how much pain and misery have I brought you."

"No Takumi, it isn't your fault," Gii stated with a determination that wouldn't book any opposition. "It's my father's fault as well as my own, his because he forced us apart without caring for our feelings and mine for not having been strong enough to stay in control of my actions…and I know that you had to endure just as much pain and misery as me, not to mention the dread and the fear because of my father, Musashino and their shady lawyers, the threats and harassment you had to bear, not to mention the blackmail that made you leave Tokyo. I don't know how I can ever make amends for all that."

"It's not you who has to make amends," Takumi breathed softly and ran his hand gingerly over Gii's cheek in a loving and comforting caress. "Please don't burden yourself with carrying the responsibility for the things your father did. Leave that to the culprit himself."

"My Takumi," the heir of the Saki family sighed sweetly, his hazel-colored orbs shining with nothing, but love and tender affection as he leaned in and swiftly took his beloved's mouth captive, savoring the feeling and the taste of the soft lips he had been craving for so many weeks, a soft moan tearing from him when he felt the ebony-haired youth kissing him back almost instantaneously, slowly and seductively parting his lips in invitation.

Pulling Takumi closer to his chest Gii slipped his tongue through the soft curve of the budding violinist's mouth and began to swirl it in the most sensual manner around other's, prodding and exploring fervidly for which he was rewarded with a sweet, sensual moan leaking from those precious lips.

With another lustful sigh tearing from him Takumi slightly tilted his head allowing his boyfriend to deepen the kiss even further and thus the two lovers entangled their tongues, moving them around one another for several long, pleasurable moments in a slow, sensual and intimate dance.

"I…I love you Takumi," Gii sighed breathlessly once the need for air had finally forced the couple to break their passionate kiss and threaded his fingers caressingly through his beloved's silky, black hair. "I love you."

"I love you too Gii," the ebony-haired youth whispered endearingly and leaned in, rubbing his nose in the most affectionate manner with his boyfriend's. "I love you too."

oOo

"Well, do you have any news," Misu asked curiously as he and Shingyouji sat down across from Akaike at a small table in their favorite coffee shop. "Did Saki send you any messages?"

"So far Gii has only written once to let me know that he safely arrived in Kyoto," the former president of Shidou Gakuin's disciplinary committee replied truthfully and let out a deep sigh, "but I haven't heard anything from him since then."

"I wonder how the meeting between him and Hayama-san is going," Shingyouji mused thoughtfully. "As Gii-senpai said, Hayama-san can be so stubborn at times."

"He isn't the only one," Misu piped in with a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth. "Saki/Gii can also be stubborn as a mule, especially when he knows exactly what he wants and considering how determined he is to make Hayama come home and return to his side as well as the fact that Hayama is still deeply in love with him as ever, I dare say that our ebony-haired friend doesn't stand much of a chance."

"That is certainly right, however, there are certain other variables in this case," Akaike added on a more serious note, "such as Michiyo, the people Hayama cares about and first and foremost Gii's father and all that will definitely have an influence on his final decision of whether he gets back together with Gii or not, but whatever happens in the end is beyond our control. All we can do for now, is to hope for the best and wait until we receive any further news."

"True," Misu sighed quietly and gave Shingyouji who was looking rather downcast a reassuring nudge, "but I think we should be optimistic and trust into the power of Saki and Hayama's unwavering love for each other."

"Amen to that," Akaike replied smiling mildly and then raised his hand in order to call the waitress over to their table.

oOo

Takumi sighed happily, his fingers interlaced with Gii's as the couple approached the house the ebony-haired youth would own one day.

"Thank you Gii for that delicious dinner," he beamed, smiling happily. "I really liked the atmosphere inside that that little noodle restaurant and it's so close to the house. We definitely have to go there again."

"You're welcome," the handsome upper-class man replied and smiled affectionately at his boyfriend, rubbing his thumb his thumb repeatedly in a tender caress over the back of the budding violinist's hand as they continued on their way, reaching the front door of the house only a few minutes later.

"Once inside the two young men took off their shoes and Takumi placed the keys onto the small dresser by the door. "I'm going to make us some tea," he stated in a kind, hospital manner and then quickly rose to his tiptoes to peck Gii's cheek, taking the heir of the Saki family completely by surprise before he casually strolled into the kitchen area as if nothing had happened, completely unaware of the heated gaze the amber-haired student was directing at him.

Humming to himself Takumi busied himself at the kitchen counter and gasped as he suddenly felt two strong arms wrap themselves around him from behind, the warm hands tracing at the hem of his shirt. "Takumi," he heard Gii breathe, the softly whispering voice sending shivers through his body as the hands trailed under his shirt to tease the muscles of his stomach.

Each touch was feather-light and gentle as if he were a piece of glass and then soft lips began to trace the contours of his neck, nipping and sucking at the sensitive skin until he moaned and arched against his boyfriend in pleasure.

"G-Gii…uhn…please," he gasped as he was spun around to face the handsome upper-class man and almost instantaneously his lips were captured in a passionate kiss.

Letting his eyes drift shut Takumi wrapped his arms around Gii's neck a lustful sigh escaping him when felt the tip of his boyfriend's tongue nudging playfully at the curve of his mouth, demanding entrance.

Pulling his beloved close Gii licked along the seam of Takumi's lips, gently coaxing them to part while tracing every inch of the delectable skin and delved his tongue deep into the hot, moist cavern of the budding violinist's mouth as soon as he was granted access, kissing the ebony-haired youth as if trying to devour his whole being, holding back a groan of desire as he felt the haze of arousal claim his mind when his kiss was returned with passionate fervour.

Takumi clung to his boyfriend as their tongues swirled around each other, gasping hotly as they met over and over again in a sensual and erotic dance that had his need buckling and as Gii felt his one and only tremble in his arms he grasped his hips, pulling him up and only a second later he felt Takumi wrapping his legs around his middle, begging for something to cling on to in face of the storm he was conjuring up inside the ebony-haired youth.

When the two lovers had to break away from their heated kiss at last Gii pressed his forehead against Takumi's, his breathing uneven and face slightly flushed as he tried desperately to control himself, unable to hold back a moan as the budding violinist began to rock against him, the proof of his desire rubbing repeatedly against his own. "Ta…kumi," he gasped hoarsely, "wh-where is your bedroom?"

"Up-Upstairs…at the end of the hall," the ebony-haired youth replied huskily and let his legs slide off his boyfriend's waist, holding on to the fabric of his shirt as he tried to steady himself once his feet were back on the ground.

"I see," Gii whispered sultrily and pulled Takumi in for another fiery kiss, carefully steering him out of the room and towards the staircase in the entrance hall while plundering his mouth, gliding his tongue deep inside the heated wetness, tasting and exploring with an intensity that almost drove the budding violinist insane. Moaning in pleasure against Gii's lips he let his hands roam over the handsome upper-class man's shoulders and back and when he felt a hot shudder running through him, he couldn't help but break the kiss, so that he could voice his need to the man he loved with all his heart. "P-Please, Gii…I…," he pleaded incoherently and sought the amber-haired student's gaze. "I…I need…"

"Takumi," the heir of the Saki sighed breathlessly, the fires he saw burning in his beloved's eyes, which had darkened with desire, mirroring the fires that were raging in his own body. With one swift motion he scooped the ebony-haired youth up into his arms and then rushed up the short flight of stairs, reaching the bedroom in record time, a smirk stealing itself onto his face when he noticed that the bedroom door was standing open.

Once inside the room he carefully sat the treasure he was holding down and pulling him into another tight embrace he took his mouth captive once more and ravished his soft lips until he could feel the other's delightful moans of pleasure resonate in his own body.

Lost in the heavenly feeling of Gii's tongue brushing over and over again against his own Takumi barely registered the handsome upper-man moving him towards the bed or his knees hitting the mattress and he couldn't help to groan in delight and anticipation when he was lowered onto the bed, Gii's delectable weight encompassing him, repeatedly pressing their arousals together again as they writhed on the comforter, exchanging another series of passionate and fiery kisses that were filled with lust, need and unbridled desire.

Releasing Takumi's lips at last Gii let his mouth slide down, kissing the budding violinist's neck where he started sucking and nipping while his fingers turned their attentions to the ebony-haired youth's shirt, skilfully undoing button for button and a soft moan drew from his throat as he roamed his hands over the bare chest underneath, gradually brushing the fabric aside, slowly revealing more and more of his beloved's smooth and pale skin to his hungry eyes.

"G-Gii," Takumi whispered needily and lifted his shoulders momentarily off the mattress thus allowing the heir of the Saki family, who never ceased his stimulating caresses, to remove the shirt entirely. "Gii," he breathed once more burying one hand in the upper-class man's silky hair and in a silent plea for more he tilted his head, exposing more of his neck's sensitive skin and Gii lost no time to take advantage of the sinful invitation.

With a low purr of delight he quickly slipped out of his own shirt and buried his face for a moment in the curve of Takumi's neck, nuzzling the warm, yielding flesh, inhaling the beguiling scent he had missed so much before he brushed his lips in a series of tantalizing butterfly kisses over his beloved's collar bones and then slowly down his chest in search for the twin peaks that would make the ebony-haired youth moan.

His fingers found them first, tweaking and pulling at them, gently at first, then with more pressure and just as he had hoped faint sighs and moans of pleasure began to leak from Takumi's lips and revelling in those sweet sounds he was coaxing out of his one and only, sounds that travelled straight to his manhood and made grow harder than he already was, he took one dusky nipple into his mouth, lapping playfully at the captured peak.

"Unngh…Gii…so good," budding violinist groaned arching under the assault, his body reacting violently to the sweet torture his boyfriend was inflicting upon him. Electricity shot from his nipples and infused his body soon his moans gained volume his lover's ministrations sending lightning strikes of craving through him.

Pleased with as well as turned on by Takumi's moans Gii smirked victoriously to himself and released the hardened nipple, tracing his lips slowly over to its twin to give it the same attention, his hands caressing his beloved's sides all the while, but as he took the second nub into his mouth, teasing and tormenting it with his tongue and teeth he swiftly trailed one hand down to the ebony-haired youth's waist where he made quick work of the button and zipper of his pants and almost instantaneously Takumi let out a lustful sigh.

Smirking lasciviously Gii looked up at his beloved and let his fingers ghost over the bulge in the budding violinist's boxers, losing himself for a moment in eyes that were clouded with need and desire, before he finally wrapped his long, slender fingers around the turgid length and began to stroke it slowly for which he was rewarded with several long, sexy moans.

"Ngh…m-more…please…I," Takumi groaned, needily arching upwards and cried out in pleasure as he felt the handsome upper-class man's warm hand slip beneath the waistband of his underwear and wrap itself around the base of his shaft, drawing in long strokes, which had him convulsing and his toes curling, towards the tip and he took in a shuddering breath as he watched Gii's talented mouth moving slowly towards his stomach.

His boyfriend's sinful tongue, which could so easily drive him insane with pleasure and ecstasy, appeared between his skilful lips and began lapping at his skin, tracing the contours of his tommy with relish and feeling the heir of the Saki family brushing his talented mouth ever so slowly over the heated flesh to the dip of his stomach he groaned brokenly as the other's tongue traced a couple of circles around his navel and then inside it, exploring it leisurely before slowly licking its way down his abdomen.

"Gii," he stammered helplessly and squirmed in pleasurable frustration, overwhelmed with wanting, his manhood aching with burning desire. "P-Please!"

"Takumi," Gii sighed in the most velvety bedroom voice and sensually kissed and licked his way to his destination where he pressed his lips against his beloved's hardness, lapping at it through his boxers, which earned him a heated half-scream from the ebony-haired youth and basking in the enthralling and musky scent of the budding violinist's most intimate territory he slowly pulled the undergarment down his slightly trembling thighs along with his pants and threw them over the edge of the bed, his own trousers and underwear following only a moment later.

"Takumi," he breathed again, drinking in the enticing sight of Takumi's erect member, nestled in a patch of downy, black hair and reached forward to caress those curls before he finally wrapped his fingers once more around the hardened shaft and stroked it lightly upon which the young man's head snapped back into the pillows.

"Nnghnn…Gii…," Takumi whimpered, his hands clawing at the covers underneath him and the heir of the Saki family couldn't help but smirk victoriously as the erotic sounds leaking from the other's lips. Knowing exactly what his beloved was begging for he brought his mouth to Takumi's quivering hardness and let his tongue flick against its head, a sultry purr leaking from his lips when he saw a drop of clear liquid trickling down from the tip.

"Beautiful," he sighed reverently, his lips fluttering against the budding violinist's hard member and slowly traced his tongue a couple of times from its base along the entire length to the crown and back before he gently took the mushroomed head into his mouth, enclosing it in heated wetness while Takumi melted into the mattress and began to writhe on the sheets overcome with pleasure and desire.

"Unngh…Gii…yes…," he moaned huskily as he felt Gii's sensual lips encasing his member, sucking sweetly on it, his tongue swirling skillfully around every inch of his aching manhood as he gradually took more and more of it inside, letting it flow in the most stimulating and enticing manner around the head and with another sigh of pleasure tearing from him he bucked his hips into his boyfriend's mouth, a movement that Gii only all too happily accepted.

Humming in satisfaction he bought his lips down all the way to the base of the iron-hard shaft, sucking hard as he slowly moved them back up to the tip where he let his tongue dart quickly into the highly sensitive slit and then engulfed the entire length once more, repeating these movements over and over again, turning Takumi into a quivering, moaning mess.

"Ya-aah…G-Gii…Gii…ngh…I," the ebony-haired youth cried out hoarsely as wave after wave of exquisite pleasure surged through his body, drowning him in the utter essence of blissful ecstasy. "M-Mou…mou dame…I…I can't…!"

"Come for me my love…let me taste you," Gii purred sexily, his veins thrumming with lust and ecstatic enjoyment as he licked his beloved's shaft one more time all the up from the root before his mouth fastened firmly around the head only and began to suck hard, flicking his tongue repeatedly against the slit while stroking the throbbing length rhythmically with his hand.

Gasping and shuddering Takumi started thrashing on the bed, his moans and muffled screams becoming louder and heavier as the tension inside him quickly built up to his cresting point and the tip of Gii's tongue darting deep into the slit of his pulsing member was all it took to send him over the edge.

"Gii…I…unngh…I'm…I'm…," he stammered incoherently and erupted only a moment later with a guttural and voluminous scream as he climaxed in waves of fulfillment and came inside the handsome upper-class man's mouth, filling the heated cavern with thick, short bursts of passion.

Letting his eyes drift shut Gii moaned lustfully as he felt his beloved's sweet release gush up into his mouth and swallowed carefully, sucking lightly at the tip of Takumi's twitching manhood in order to collect every last drop.

"Takumi," he sighed lovingly and letting his hand travel caressingly over his beloved's heaving chest, up his neck and along his flushed cheek he leaned in to seal the budding violinist's lisp with his own. To his delight the ebony-haired youth responded immediately and the two lovers kissed gently, their mouths opening and closing, their tongues meeting and parting, their teeth gingerly biting lips.

"Gii," Takumi moaned longingly into the kiss and fueled by the taste of himself on the lips of the man he had given his heart to, he traced his hand down the amber-haired student's taut muscular chest and abdomen to his proud manhood and wrapped his fingers gently around the erect shaft, eliciting a long, lascivious moan from its owner. The heir of the Saki family took a shuddering breath as the budding violinist's hand circled him and began to move up and down his hardened length and couldn't help but flex his hips against his boyfriend and lover in a silent plea for more.

"Yes…yes Takumi…ngh…like that…," he moaned huskily, shivering with arousal as the ebony-haired youth squeezed him a little harder.

"I…I want you Gii," Takumi whispered seductively into his boyfriend's ear, never ceasing his highly stimulating caresses of the other's manhood and looked at the handsome upper-class man with heavy-lidded eyes, his body erupting in burning desire once again as he met his deep and scalding brown eyes, a gaze, so intent and focused on him that it made him tremble under the potency of the amber-haired student.

"Please Gii, take me," he breathed wantonly and leaned in to kiss the heir of the Saki family.

"Ta…Takumi," Gii groaned, his rich, baritone voice heavenly laden with desire, feeling like he was going to explode any moment for his beloved's caresses and rhythmic strokes were satisfying and teasing him all at once and he needed to take several deep breaths in order to come down a little from his sexual high before he began to move his lips down Takumi's body once more.

Leaving a trail of tingling bites and marks on the heated skin and Takumi moaning and writhing underneath him he kissed and nipped his way south and once he had reached his destination, he let his tongue ghost playfully over the ebony-haired youth's hardening member.

"Takumi," he repeated longingly and turned his attention to the budding violinist's thighs, stroking them gently while slowly spreading them apart and holding his beloved open he began to kiss the inside of his legs. Fanning the pale, smooth skin with his heated breath he nipped, kissed, sucked and licked the yielding and highly sensitive flesh with ardent passion, trailing his tongue gradually upwards, inch by inch moving closer to the most intimate region of his beloved's body, sending exquisite shivers down the budding violinist's spine.

"Unngh…G-Gii…a-aah," Takumi gasped out repeatedly and by the time the heir of the Saki family had reached that forbidden territory the ebony-haired youth was panting with lust and desire, his legs spread wide in a silent, needy plea for more.

Aroused almost to the point of bursting at the deliciously erotic sight Gii offered his beloved a sultry smile and brought his mouth down to Takumi's manhood, running his tongue several times over the other's newly awakened erection before he moved it to the root of the hardened shaft, bathing the budding violinist's sacs with long, slow licks that had the young man arching and crying out in desire.

"A-aah…so good…ngh," he groaned, shuddering violently and smirking self-contentedly at his partner's reaction to his ministrations Gii sucked one of the perfectly shaped balls into his mouth, moaning at the heady and familiar flavor that began to invade his senses while his hand traveled to the patch of skin below the sacs, Takumi letting out a keening wail as pressure was applied to his perineum, long, skilled fingers stroking softly at first and then harder and abrupt pleasure raced through the ebony-haired youth at the touch, as if he had been hit with electricity and it traveled straight into his manhood, making it ache even more than the oral worship had.

"Gii! Oh God," he screamed as the handsome upper-class man repeated his sweet caress and then began to suck at the base of his throbbing member for some blissful moments before finally moving his lips away.

"My beautiful Takumi," Gii breathed softly as he lifted the budding violinist's legs over his shoulders, aligning his mouth with that sinfully pink pucker that was hidden in the cleft of Takumi's bubble butt and spreading those luscious cheeks he dabbled the puckered entrance with small, tantalizing kisses before he snaked his tongue out and began to lick the rosebud, alternating between slow caresses and teasing jabs and once more Takumi's delicious flavor invaded his being, sending a series of shocks of arousal straight into his iron-hard shaft while his ears buzzed with pleasure as he listened to the moans and cries of his beloved like a symphony to his senses.

The slim hips in his hands began to rock against him, crying out for release and begging for more of the pleasurable torture he had inflicted and smirking he continued to sweep wet and enticing circles around the pucker, to lick and to tease it and finally he drove his tongue into the entrance, a long, low moan tearing from his beloved as he began to caress the insides of his passage, relaxing the taut ring of muscle and exploring the alluring territory that lay before him with relish, driving the ebony-haired youth under him wild with ecstatic desire.

"Gii…oh God…please," Takumi panted, squeezing his eyes shut as he felt the handsome upper-class man sucking at the tender skin around his rosebud before driving back inside again and again, the sensation of his entrance being marked in such an erotic manner bringing a pleasure that was indescribable and he couldn't help but gasp and moan at the incredible feeling that made his entire body tingle and his manhood throb and weep tears of desire, begging for attention.

Without ever ceasing his caresses Gii listened to the intensity of his beloved's cries, satisfied to see that he had effectively made the ebony-haired youth lose his mind and swept his tongue one last time around the puckered entrance before he traced it once more along the heavy sacs and then continued his journey upwards toward the budding violinist's finely shaped member that had never failed to captivate him, until he had reached its base.

"I love the way you taste," he murmured seductively and slowly licked the entire length in the most erotic and stimulating fashion, flicking the tip of his tongue a couple of times against the head, coaxing the most amazing sounds out of his one and only before one of his hands came up and cupped his throbbing arousal, nearly sending its owner over the edge again in his fevered state.

"Takumi," he whispered breathily while moving his fingers over the other's hardened shaft to his sacs and that sensitive patch of skin behind them and then, ever so slowly, he moved them further back, inch by inch towards the rosy entrance which was aching with the need to be filled.

"Takumi," he sighed again and the ebony-haired youth cried out sharply the moment he felt Gii's finger circle the slick, tingling flesh around his rosebud, nudging playfully against it and at last slipping inside after what had seemed to have been a little eternity in his passion-fogged mind.

"Unngh…yes…nngh," he groaned as the digit sank into his vivid wetness, pushing past the resistance of his body and plunging deep into his aching channel and when the probing finger began to wriggle deliciously inside him, his inner walls tightened almost instantaneously around it and he gasped loudly, quivering at the sensations of Gii's intoxicating caress and rolling his hips unconsciously against the handsome upper-class man.

"Does it feel good," Gii asked in a deep, husky voice, unable to suppress a moan of desire as he felt the ring of muscle recede slightly in preparation for his iron-hard member and leaned in to lick the highly sensitive spot where Takumi's manhood and sacs met before he brought his lips to the underside of the proud erection and trailed his tongue up the shaft to nibble softly at the base of its head, brushing his finger over a certain bundle of nerves inside his beloved's channel at the same time, for which he was rewarded with an ecstatic cry as well as a violent shudder.

Humming in lustful desire at the sounds that were pouring out of his one and only, he let his tongue flow a couple of times around the crown and then he slowly slid his mouth down the hard, weeping member while pushing a second finger into the ebony-haired youth's heated passage and Takumi felt his entire body light up as Gii's digits plunged deeper and deeper into him, lavishing his weak spot with attention, hitting it many-a-time with flawless precision.

Jolts of pleasure began to surge through him, sending rushes of electricity to every extremity of his body and a bolt of lust and unbridled desire, which made him shiver from head to toe, ran from his throbbing manhood straight to that obscure, little spot inside him upon which he pushed his hips up towards the warm sucking mouth that was holding him in paradise.

"Oh God, Gii! Please…unngh-ah…please, I can't…I…I need…please," he cried out in a frenzy of pleasure, his hands flying up to his head and tangling in his hair and he started shaking uncontrollably as the handsome upper-class man opened his mouth and sucked him skillfully to the hilt, gasping breathlessly at the multitude of tingling sensations surging his body, that wonderful, intense and helpless felling that only Gii could give him.

"Takumi," the heir of the Saki family groaned in a low, sexy bedroom voice and coupling one more thrust of his fingers with another long suck of his beloved's tempting arousal, he met hazy, chocolate-colored eyes with his own and slowly licked his lips in anticipation.

"Ngh…Gii, please…please take me," the ebony-haired youth moaned erotically and watched with undisguised lust as his boyfriend slowly settled between his thighs.

"Takumi," Gii breathed hoarsely for the umpteenth time that evening, nudging the head of his aching member gently against the ebony-haired youth's quivering entrance and locking gazes with the man he loved with every fiber of his being he pushed his hips forward and entered the budding violinist's tight wetness, embedding himself with a long, slow plunge almost to the hilt in that delicious heat, slowly closing in against the one he wanted to grow old with as he kept pressing inwards.

"G-Gii," Takumi gasped shakily, his dark eyes wide from that intoxicating mixture of dull, stretching pain fused with intense pleasure as he felt himself being filled with his boyfriend's girth and ever so slowly, he pushed his hips up to take the throbbing manhood fully inside.

"Ngh Takumi…sugoi," the handsome upper-class man purred sexily and savoring the feeling of his member being encased and caressed by those wonderful walls of his beloved's channel, he leaned in to trail a series of lingering kisses over his chest, collarbones and shoulders, holding himself all the while, thus giving the budding violinist all the time he needed to adjust to him, keeping in mind, despite the hot lust and desire that were rushing through his body, that their last sexual encounter had been quite a long time ago.

"Gii," Takumi whispered in the most sultry and alluring manner as he relaxed into the covers and breathing easily, he raised his hands to cup Gii's cheeks, looking with adoring eyes at the heir of the Saki family, giving him silent permission to take things further.

Nodding weakly Gii began to roll his hips gently, drawing out carefully, then coming back in just as slowly, just as gently, thrusting into Takumi's heated passage at a slow and even pace, enjoying the sounds of pleasure that were leaking from the ebony-haired youth's lips as he gingerly brushed against his sweet spot.

"Nhg…yes…there…," Takumi moaned and bracing himself against the other's chest he began to move his hips rhythmically as well, meeting each of the handsome upper-class man's thrusts, relishing the jolts of electricity that were shooting up his spine, gradually setting his whole body on fire and soon the two lovers were coming together and apart in perfect harmony.

Moaning lustfully Gii attacked Takumi's neck, kissing, licking and nipping the sensitive flesh and drove his hard member over and over again into his beloved, sinking ever deeper into the alluring heat of his channel as he gradually increased the pace and strength of his thrusts, making sure that each thrust hit the hidden pleasure spot inside the ebony-haired youth's body.

"Unngh-ah…yes…ki…kimochii," the budding violinist cried out, overcome with pleasure and wrapped his legs around his boyfriend's middle, thus increasing the delicious and highly stimulating friction between their bodies.

"My beautiful Takumi," Gii purred sexily into his beloved's ear and then trailed a line of heated kisses along the ebony-haired youth's jaw before he captured his mouth for a deep, fiery kiss. Tongues rubbed against and swirled around each other, mingling and sparring with each other, sucking and licking, lashing and immersing again and again in blazing passion while Gii continued to thrust into Takumi's sensuous body, setting a rhythm that was soon driving the budding violinist crazy with ecstasy.

"Nya-ah…G-Gii…yes, yes…ngh…don't…nya-ah…don't stop," he screamed huskily, losing himself in the elysian feeling of exquisite pleasure surging through his body and let out a series of erotic moans as Gii began to thrust harder into his passage, rubbing over and over again against his prostate, not attacking the highly sensitive bundle of nerves with full force, but rather grazing it with a teasing rhythm, an act that brought mind-blowing pleasure to which he couldn't help but buckle, but despite that delicious ecstasy he felt a craving churning and burning inside him that had yet to be satisfied.

"Hnnn…mo…nya-ah…motto…," he gasped out wantonly, letting his hands roam caressingly over Gii's shoulder blades and back as he flexed his hips upwards, his slender, now slick member grinding into the handsome upper-class man's hard, flat stomach.

"Ta-Takumi," the heir of the Saki family groaned heatedly, relishing the feeling of his pleasurably aching shaft being caressed by the warm, tight walls of his beloved's passage, caresses which sent hot rushes of unbridled lust and pleasure surging through him and coupled with the highly erotic sounds the budding violinist made, overpowered him at last.

Moaning he pulled himself from Takumi's arms and scrambled up, ecstasy starting to sweep like a tsunami through him as he hooked the ebony-haired youth's legs over his strong arms, took firm hold of his hips and began to thrust into the welcoming heat of his inner gateway much more fiercely than before, lavishing once more attention on his sweet spot and soon Takumi was thrashing beneath him, drowning in a sea of wild, ecstatic enjoyment.

"Nya-ah…G-Gii…su…unngh…sugoi," he exclaimed repeatedly and reached out to let his hands settle on the sides of his boyfriend's torso, further consumed by the warmth and power of the handsome upper-class man's body against and inside him and bucking hips he basked in the feeling of frenzied passion, surging through his body, letting out an untamed scream of ecstasy when Gii started driving the head of his iron-hard shaft over and over with particular strength deep into his weak spot, then dragging back across it, making the highly sensitive bundle of nerves tremble and pulse so much that it became almost too much to bear, the fiery rushes of pleasure which kept washing over him driving him wild.

Every time he felt his boyfriend thrust with decisive strength and fervor into his channel, it sent a wild tremor through his body, making him quiver and quake with blissful, ecstatic enjoyment and as the combined sensations of ever-growing passion and ecstasy rocketed through his existence, gradually overwhelming his senses, he pitched his spine into a pleasure induced arch.

"Ngh-aah…y-yes…ki-kimochii…I…unngh…yes…yes…yes," he cried out, lost in wild, ecstatic passion, the handsome upper-class man's iron-hard shaft compelling him forwards, relentlessly rubbing and hitting his forbidden pleasure spot. "Mo…motto Gii…motto!"

"Nngh…Takumi," the heir of the Saki family gasped out huskily, a sexy, conquering smile tugging at the corners of his mouth and spurred on by the lustful moans and screams of his beloved he leaned in, bearing down on the ebony-haired youth with his muscular body, using his weight to force the other's legs, with gentle determination, further apart and down towards the mattress and then he drove his aching member with everything he had into the budding violinist's hot and wonderfully tight channel, burying himself deep inside his one and only, reaching hidden places inside his body that had so far remained untouched.

"Oh God…," Takumi moaned and one of his hands flew up to his eyes, the feeling of his boyfriend and lover so deep inside of him taking his breath away. "Gii!"

"Feel me Takumi," the handsome upper-class man purred, his voice filled with sensual promise and sent his iron-hard shaft with a hard, vigorous thrust into his beloved, hitting his prostate with full force, causing the budding violinist's body to rear off the bed for a moment as its owner screamed out in ecstatic pleasure, then resettling on the sheets only to be assaulted one more.

Eager to hear the ebony-haired youth's voice again, Gii took to plunging fervidly into Takumi's passage at a fast, wild speed, hitting his weak spot hard with every single thrust.

"Ya-aah…yes…so…unngh…so deep," the budding violinist screamed out repeatedly screamed out repeatedly at the intense penetration and dug his fingers deep into Gii's lower back as stars began to explode in front of his vision and moaning and heaving he desperately held on to his boyfriend, his eyelids fluttering in ecstasy as a familiar feeling began to coil in his stomach, the speed and strength at which the heir of the Saki family drove into his channel pushing him quickly towards his cresting point. "Ahaah…su-sugoi…I…ngh-ah…oh God, I can't…I…I'm…!"

"Ngh Takumi…you feel so good," Gii groaned lewdly and feeling the walls of his beloved's passage clenching around him, which sent burning waves of pleasure through his body, he sped up the pace of his strokes another notch and began to drive his shaft with needful urgency over and over again as hard and as deep as he could into the budding violinist prostate while wrapping one hand around his weeping member, stroking it in rhythm with his thrusts.

"Ya-aah…m-mou…mou dame," Takumi gasped and moaning uncontrollably at the multitude of overwhelming sensations that were flooding his system he began to thrash wildly on the sheets and only a few moments later he finally exploded with a guttural scream of pleasure.

"Ahaaah…I…unngh G-Gii…I'm…G-Giiiiii," he cried out and his hips lifted off the bed, blindness briefly ensnaring his vision as he came long and hard, his moans and screams echoing throughout the room as he sent pulsing streams of passion onto his heaving chest and clenching abs, the trembling and pulsing walls of his passage tightening almost painfully around Gii's member, sending a shock through the handsome upper-class man that was almost instantaneously answered with his own orgasm.

Falling forward with a heavy, lustful moan Gii buried his face in the hollow of Takumi's neck, affectionately nuzzling the soft, heated skin and pressed himself hard against the ebony-haired youth's hips, rocking his own ever so gently as he sent the hot strands of his sweet release deep inside his beloved, ecstatic pleasure washing over the two lovers as their bodies writhed on each other, their climaxes cresting almost simultaneously, overwhelming their senses.

Panting heavily as they finally tumbled down from their blissful high, both of them trembling lightly in the aftermath of the ferocious climaxes they had just experienced, they held each other tight, losing themselves within that velvety wave of comfort and once his breath had steadied a little Gii let his hands travel caressingly up and down Takumi's back, planting soft butterfly kisses all over the budding violinist's flushed face and then cradled his head gently against his shoulder.

"I'm going to make love to you all night long," he purred in the most alluring and velvety bedroom voice and gave his beloved a slow, deep and sensual kiss before he buried his face once more in the heavenly curve of the ebony-haired youth's neck. "I'm all yours Gii," Takumi whispered lustfully and burying his hand in his boyfriend's soft, amber-colored hair he let out a sensual sigh of contentment.
