Chapter Eleven:

Asami walked out of the bedroom to see food on the table. He glanced over when his photographer walked out of the kitchen with two cups. He sat down when the younger man did the same. He looked into those hazel eyes to see the flame in them that was lost for a while. He wanted to ask how the other was but he didn't want to ruin anything.

The young photographer knew those golden eyes were on him. He looked up and sighed, "I remember."

"You do?" Asami asked, hiding the fear in his voice.

"Well at least about our relationship and everything that dealt with our relationship. I still can't remember living with the Takabas, my real family, or my friends." Akihito explained. He started to eat, glancing up from time to time to see the yakuza eating as well. He didn't know if he would be allowed to be heard or not. He put his fork down and asked, "May I talk at the hearing?"

"If that is what you wish, then you can." Asami replied. He felt relief. At least his boy remembered their times. Did that mean the other would remember everything in time? He didn't want to see those eyes looking so haunted. Akihito stood up, cleaning their empty plates. He spoke, "But you are not wearing that at the hearing."

"I wear whatever the hell I please." Akihito growled as he dashed into the kitchen. He remembered everything between them. He knew talking back to the older man could be dangerous for his behind. He started to clean the dishes. He didn't hear footsteps. He walked out of the kitchen to see the other room empty. He went to the bedroom, hearing the shower. He leaned against the wall and sighed. Some part of him wanted to remember but it was a small part. The huge part kept whispering to him, never remember. Was it better this way? He would like to remember times he had. He looked over when the bathroom door was opened. He felt his lips dry at the sight before him. Asami was bare to the world expect having a towel wrap around his waist. He swept his eyes up to see golden ones on him. He licked his lips, feeling the heat run through his body.

"As much as I enjoy you ogling me, we have to be at the hearing soon. Put on a suit. You have a couple." Asami remarked as he dried off, going to his closet and getting dressed.

Akihito thought about defining the order but he thought it best to look good at the hearing. It had nothing to do with him having a sore behind tomorrow if he didn't listen. He walked to the closet after Asami was done, grabbing the first suit of his. Asami brought him a few when they started to live together. He couldn't really remember why but he accepted them and ignored them from then on. He undressed and started to dress in the suit. Within ten minutes, they were in the limo, driving to the hearing. He was scared. What would happen if they judge agree with his so called family? Didn't he have rights? He chose to stay with Asami. The traffic wasn't bad at all and they were almost there. He spoke softly, fear clear in his voice, "What if they judge agrees with them? What if I have to go with them? I swear I'll run. I refuse to…" His lips were sealed into a kiss and he forgot everything. He squirmed in his seat, feeling light headed.

Asami broke the kiss and stated, "You are not going anywhere. You will stay by my side. I will make sure of it."

Akihito stared at the man and nodded his head. Whatever Asami did, the other man knew he wasn't going anywhere. He was glad he would be able to speak in the hearing. It would be nice to say what was on his mind. The door was opened and Asami slid out. He took a deep breath and got out of the limo. He stared at the steps to see the Takabas standing there with a lawyer. He took a step closer to the yakuza, seeing a beautiful woman walk to them. She had long brown hair pulled up into a ponytail, her eyes were light brown and she wore thin glasses.

Reiko held out her hand and spoke, "Asami-san, it is a pleasure to see you again."

"It is all my pleasure Reiko. Akihito would like to speak in the hearing and of course you will be paid good for doing this." Asami responded. He glanced to the side to see his lover closer to him. He wrapped his arm around the thin waist and started to walk up the stairs. The Takabas stepped in their way. He glared at each one of them.

Nagi spoke first, "Akihito, please understand we are only doing this for your own good. We can stop this if you leave this man for good."

Akihito's eyes narrowed at the woman. He sneered, "The hell if I'm leaving my lover."

Hiteshi retorted, "I told you before you can't even be sure he is your lover."

Akihito chuckled loudly at that comment. He wrapped his arm around Asami's, laughing, "I gain some of my memories back. I know full well this man is my lover and that I trusted him with my entire being to sign my rights to him. I have no plan of leaving him and I will not be going anywhere." He pulled Asami away from the Takabas, moving quickly. He tried to calm his nerves but everything was spinning in his mind. He stepped inside to see the two guys from before. They walked to him and he didn't know what to say to them. He tried but failed to remember them or their times together. He stepped closer to the older man who returned his arm around his waist.

Kou stated, "We are here for you. I don't agree with your family at all for what they are doing."

"I agree. I think it would make it worse." Takato backed up Kou.

Akihito replied, "They aren't my family."

"Huh?" Both Kou and Takato asked dumbly.

"They adopted me after my family was killed." Akihito explained.

"We never knew." Takato responded. He glanced over to see Asami standing there with a hint of concern. He pulled Akihito into a hug, whispering, "It doesn't matter. Kou and I are here for you. If you want to stay with this guy, then we back you up."

Pulling away from the hug, Akihito thanked the man, "Thank you. Now excuse us. The hearing is about to start." He walked with Asami close by him. He felt the arm around his waist again and it started to calm him down. They all sat down in the front as the Takabas entered and sat on the other side. He grabbed a hold of Asami's hand. Golden eyes flickered toward him and he saw amusement. He ignored it and kept his mouth shut. He didn't need people seeing an argument between them now. They stood up as the judge entered and once the judge sat down, they sat down.

Reiko stood up and spoke, "Judge, Akihito-kun wishes to speak."

"Sir, he isn't in his right mind to begin with. Also he has been forced to live with Asami Ryuuichi. Who knows what was said to the poor boy." The other lawyer spoke.

Judge remarked, "This is a hearing if he would need help. I would like to hear his words." Turning to the boy, he spoke, "Takaba-kun, please speak."

Akihito stood, looking at the two people who claim to be his friends behind him, then he looked at Asami. He took a deep breath and said what was on his mind, "Sir, I'm starting to remember things. I know I have a relationship with Ryuuichi. I know that I signed all my rights to him if anything were to happen to me. I did this because the Takabas were not my family. They adopted me. I distanced myself from any them. For these few days, I know I was right in doing so. I wish to stay by my lover's side and no where else. Second, I point out, this hearing shouldn't even take place. I'm an adult and can make decisions on my own."

The judge waved for the boy to take his seat. He looked at the reports, really not paying attention to them. After all, he was going to go in favor to Asami. It was a favor that was called in. He spoke, "I do not understand why we are here. I must agree that Akihito-kun is an adult. Also these papers were signed by him giving Asami Ryuuichi all right over him if something were to happen."

Naga stood up and spoke, "He didn't know what he was doing and he still doesn't."

"That is enough, Takaba-san. You and your family are making this worse on the boy." The judge spoke coldly. Turning toward the photographer, he asked, "You said that you are remembering things, is that correct?" Akihito nodded his head. He sighed, "Takaba-san, you and your family has wasted the court's time with this. I will not force a grown adult to live with you if he doesn't wish to. By my judgment, I will follow the signed documents. Asami Ryuuichi has right over Akihito-kun unless the boy decides to change his mind on it." He stood up and left the room. He didn't think that would be easy. The document was right there, giving him all the reason to favor Asami.

Akihito sighed in relief. He stood up, being pulled into a hug by Kou and Takato. He really did wish he remembered them. They seem close to him. He felt the strong arm wrap around his waist. He teased, "Jealous." Asami smirked at him and he smiled back. He stated, "Do not get any ideas. I will not follow your every demand because of this."

"I wouldn't have you any other way." Asami remarked. He pulled his boy out of the court house. It was great to have power. He looked down when he felt his hand grabbed. He saw their hands holding each other. He glanced up to see those hazel eyes so bright, it was heavenly. He swore to himself then and there that he would never reveal the truth behind what happened that night. He would take that to his grave.

Two weeks later, Akihito ran from Suoh, laughing as he saw the guard cussing. He jumped onto the train before the guy could get him. He did some fishing and decided to pay a visit. Twenty minutes later, he stood in front of a house. He stared at it, feeling his heart beat quickly. It was the same house in his dream. He still had the dreams but every time he walked away from the house in his dream, more chains would build on the door. He shook his head and moved away from the house. He had another place to go to. He tracked his way up the hill, standing in front of three graves. He whispered, "Sometimes I wish I remembered you." He sat down under a tree and stared at the graves of his family. He still couldn't remember them. He started to hang out with Kou and Takato feeling free around them, enjoying their moments. He couldn't remember the past with them but something told him he didn't want to. The Takabas tried a few times to repeal the court ordered, but nothing came out of it. Every other court saw him an adult and could make his own choices. Feeling the rain, he closed his eyes, trying to picture something.

"You will get a cold if you stay out here." A cold voice spoke.

Standing up quickly, Akihito mumbled, "How do you do that? How the hell can you find me every place I go to? Don't tell me you put on a tracker on me somehow?" He glanced down to his camera bag and screamed, "YOU FUCKING PUT A TRACKER ON MY CAMERA!"

Asami smirked and spoke, "It took you that long to figure it out. It has been two weeks and now you realized it."

Akihito looked at the graves and whispered, "Sometimes I wish I could remember them, but there is a voice in my head, saying I never want to remember. Is that horrible?"

Wrapping his arm around the boy's waist, Asami replied, "Some things are better to be forgotten. No, it isn't horrible. You have a future, take it." Akihito spanned around to face him. He kept seeing those eyes looking so happy. He kept track of his boy for these past two weeks, ensuring nothing would happen to him.

Akihito knew there were details being left unsaid but his mind told him not to ask. He leaned up, sealing those lips into a kiss. He pulled back after a couple of seconds. He whispered, "Let me say my goodbyes." Asami pointed down the path to show him the limo and left him be. He looked at the graves and spoke freely, "I'm sorry I can't remember any of you. I'm sure you were a great family. Well I have a future now. I'm truly in love with Ryuuichi. He isn't the type of guy to bring home to the parents but he is all I need." Kneeling down, he whispered into the wind, "Goodbye my family." He stood up and ran down the path. He was going to make sure he could come here every year. Asami was leaning against the limo. He leaned up, wrapping his arms around the man's neck, kissing him. Pulling back, he muttered, "I love you, sick old pervert."

"I know." Asami remarked with a smirk.

Slapping the wondering hand away from him, Akihito hissed, "Damn bastard." He slid into the car, looking forward to the future. He would make his father proud being a criminal photographer and he would have someone there to help him if he ever get into a jam.
