Yuki was pissed when he opened the door at 12:00 to find his brother looking for a place to crash. The writer had been up anyway working on his latest novel but that was beside the point. Nevertheless, the disgruntled writer let his brother in.

"Thanks Yuki, I would have gone home but I'm just too tired tonight."

"Then you should have gone to a hotel," Yuki said coldly.

"I have no money," Tatsuha said with a sigh.

"Whatever. What were you doing out so late anyway?"

"I went with Taro to meet his bride-to-be."

Yuki didn't respond. Tatsuha knew that this news bothered him because Yuki didn't have a sarcastic come back.

"She was very pretty," Tatsuha said, studying Yuki for signs of jealousy,"Not to mention smart and polite. Oh, and she's richer than you- her house is huge."

"I don't care," Yuki said with a frown.

"How can you say you don't care?"

"Why should I? If he's happy, fine."

"But are you really okay with Taro being with someone else?"

"I love Shuichi, not Taro," Yuki said shortly,"I'd just make him miserable anyway."

With that, Yuki went into the other room and shut the door behind him. Tatsuha got the feeling that the conversation was over. Too bad, Tatsuha thought as he flopped onto the couch. He had meant to ask Yuki if he had known Taro before the accident.

"So, do you like Risa alright?" Gramps asked Taro as the two washed the dishes left over from dinner back at their house. Taro paused to think the question over.

"She seemed nice," Taro said.

"But you don't love her?"

"No," Taro said, returning to drying the dishes,"but I think I could in time. I don't have any reasons not to marry her."

"Don't lie, Taro," His grandpa said sullenly with a sigh,"Everything has gone so wrong."

"What?" Taro asked suprised.

"Taro, I think I need to tell you the truth before this gets even more out of hand."

Taro blinked in confusion.

"Taro, you are Shuichi."

"That's not possible! I can't be Shuichi. I'm-"

"Listen to me, Taro. You are Shuichi. I'm not your grandpa- I'm Risa's butler. She's

been a fan of Bad Luck ever since she first heard of you. She was a bit crushed when she found out you were gay. That's beside the point though. Risa isn't dumb and she quickly learned that although you loved Yuki, he was making you miserable. That's why she came up with this idea."

"This idea?"

"She arranged for everything and then she had me meet with you. I gave you the option to stay with Yuki or forget about him and live a different life free of him. You hesitated at first but it was only awhile before you looked me up saying you wanted to forget him. I imagine that it

was after another fight. We set up the car crash- Risa payed off people to get the results to what we needed. Same with your coma. Then when you woke up, I was supposed to play the role of your grandfather. I didn't think I'd enjoy the job but, you're a good kid. Risa cares for you too. She got rid of all of her things and changed so that she might be the kind of person you could love. She has practically dedicated her life to you. You were never supposed to run into Yuki."

"Why are you telling me this?" Taro snapped. He didn't want to hear it. He wanted everything to go back to the way it was. How could he look Yuki in the face now that he knew?

"Because, if I don't you'll go through the same thing again. Now, I'm presenting the option to you again, do you want to go back to Yuki or do you want to remain Taro?"

"I went through all of that to forget about Yuki?" Taro asked quietly.

"Yeah, you did. You loved him but, in the end, he hurt you too much."

"Okay."

"Hmm?"

"I-I want to marry Risa. I want you to be my grandpa. I want to be Taro."

"Are you sure?" Hideyoshi frowned.

"Yes, I'm sure," Shuichi said with complete determination,"I allowed you to do all of this so that I couldn't go back."
