Haruhiko was sitting at the kitchen table, thinking hard.
'What should I do? I know that Misaki loves Akihiko more than he would ever love me. He proved that last night when he cried over the man. And I know Akihiko loves Misaki more than I ever could.' He sighed to himself. 'I don't even think I'm gay. I just want Misaki because Akihiko had him and I've always wanted what he had.' He looked at the door that blocked the boy from his sight. 'I have to give him back,' he decided. 'I can't keep him here anymore. He's miserable and will never love me.'
He stood up and wrote a quick note before grabbing his coat and going out the door.
Arriving home, he looked around for his servant.
"Jirô? Jirô, where are you?"
The man quickly appeared in the room, face a little messed up.
"Jirô…what happened to your face?"
Touching his face in confusion, his eyes went wide for a moment before he looked down in shame.
"Kitchen accident sir."
Something seemed off but Haruhiko shrugged it off.
"Where did Akihiko go after he woke up?"
Jirô's face went white.
"I-I'm not sure sir. H-He d-didn't say but I assume he went home…"
A loud noise made Haruhiko's face whip around.
"What was that?"
"I-I do not know."
He frowned.
"What DO you know Jirô? You seem to be strangely under-informed today." Jirô's eyes flickered back and forth as he thought quickly and Haruhiko crossed his arms and glared. "What aren't you telling me?" A quiet noise reached his ears and he turned toward it. "What was that?"
The man's eyes widened.
"N-Nothing s-sir!"
With no intention of believing him, Haruhiko started walking to where he thought the noise was coming from.
It seemed to get louder and louder until it was muffled behind a door.
As soon as he reached for the knob, Jirô leapt in front of him.
"I can't let you go in there! We have a rat problem and I managed to get them all in that room and if you open the door they will all be let out!"
Haruhiko brushed him off.
"I don't trust you anymore," he said with a glare as he turned the knob in his hand and pulled the door open.
His eyes widened hugely.
"Akihiko…"
Sumi was pressing himself against Akihiko as he tried to make himself comfortable in his sleep.
As much as he wanted to push the boy away, he couldn't; he just couldn't. Especially not after what he had done. His beloved Misaki didn't want him anymore and Sumi was willing so…why not? It was his only option left.
He sighed and looked away.
Even as soon as Sumi laying down and falling asleep, Akihiko had felt disgusted with himself.
Surely he had more self control than that?
But Sumi had known exactly how to turn him on and he could never control himself when he was turned on. Misaki had suffered several times before because of that as he now realized and he felt bad.
"I'm sorry Misaki…" he whispered as if the boy he longed so deeply for could hear him.
He closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep as Sumi had done.
Suddenly there was a loud beep to announce a door opening and the boy fell off him in surprise.
"OH CRAP!" he yelled as he jumped up and quickly re-dressed before putting his mask back on, slightly crooked. "Why is he home so early? He said he would be gone all day!"
He ran out of the room and Akihiko sighed and tried to move his arms into a more comfortable position but it was useless; Sumi had bound his arms again before he passed out, exhausted.
"He'll be back…and then he'll cut me free again…"
Closing his eyes for a quick nap before he was no longer alone, he tried to relax.
A loud voice reached his ears after a short time and he sat up a little, trying to listen.
The voice started to get louder until it was right outside the door.
"I can't let you go in there! We have a rat problem and I managed to get them all in that room and if you open the door they will all be let out!"
"I don't trust you anymore."
He held his breath as the door opened.
"Akihiko…"
His brother stared at him for a little while before hurrying to his side.
"What happened to you?" he demanded.
"J-Jirô…" he managed to force out.
Haruhiko whipped around as Sumi tried to back towards the door and grabbed his arm, twisting it behind his back and keeping him in place. "Why did you do this you sick fuck? He's my brother and you work for me! You can't just tie him up and fuck him whenever I'm not here! You are fired and I'm calling the cops!" He pulled him towards the closet and threw him inside, locking him there. "Now wait patiently!"
He growled and turned back to Akihiko before sighing. "Let's get you some help." He walked over and gently untied him; Akihiko massaged his wrists when they were free.
"W-Why…w-why a-are y-you h-helping m-me?" he struggled to ask.
His brother froze and looked away.
"Misaki misses you…" he whispered. "I can't make him happy like you do. I tried but he still wants you so I'm going to bring him back."
Akihiko stared at him.
"R-Really?"
Haruhiko nodded.
"I can't stand to see him this upset so be with him. Make him happy. I won't bother you anymore."
Akihiko smiled and tried to stand up before collapsing to the floor.
"What happened to you?"
He nodded his head toward the closet.
"W-When h-he's…," he coughed harshly. "O-On t-top…h-he's v-violent…"
Again Haruhiko growled as he noticed the marks covering his brother's body.
"I'm taking you to the hospital before bringing Misaki to you. No buts about it!"
Akihiko just sighed.
"F-Fine…"
AN: One more chapter to go! It's finally almost finished! :D
But Sumi is a horrible human being! And Haruhiko is a great person when his brother is in trouble. AND AKIHIKO AND MISAKI ARE GOING TO BE TOGETHER AGAIN!
