AN: Here is Chapter 11. I'm really amazed this story has progressed as far as it has considering I really haven't been getting any feedback on it aside from the occasional e-mail stating that someone has added this story to their Alerts or Favorites. While it isn't a frequent event, I would like to thank those of you who have enjoyed this story and added it to whatever you may have added it to. Thank you. I think I'm continuing this one because I still really haven't seen much of this kick-ass pairing really anywhere on the internet. I fancy myself a trend-setter, I suppose. Can one be considered a trend-setter if the trend doesn't become big? Whatever... Oh and I'm completely ignoring the fact that in one of the "Special" chapters of the manga, Sawada and Yamaguchi are dating (or at least go on a date) and share a kiss-ish-type-nastiness at the end. Ew... I don't want to think about that anymore so let me "stfu" and let you read.

Rating/Warnings: NC17/Yaoi; language

Kuma's phone rang just before 10:30 Monday morning. He grumbled as he rolled over in bed and retrieved it from the small dresser next to his pillow. Without checking to see who the caller was, he flipped it open and placed it at his ear.

"Yeah…?"

"Yo…"

"Oi, Shin-Chan." Kuma smiled a bit through a yawn and stretched.

"Oi. Did I wake you?"

"Yeah, but I should be awake anyway." Shin sounded like he'd been up for a while. "What's up?"

"Nothing much. Do you think anyone would mind if I brought Yamaguchi to the park for whatever it is we're doing on Wednesday?"

Kuma paused for a minute still trying to wake up then responded. "No, I don't think so. Why?"

"Good. No reason really. I thought it would be a nice surprise for her to see you all again."

"Yeah we haven't really seen her since graduation."

"Yeah…"

There was a brief silence while Kuma thought, mind still heavily tainted with sleep. "Hey, doesn't Yankumi have class during the day?"

"Y… yeah, s-so?"

Shin was starting to sound a bit strange and Kuma raised a brow. "Well… how are you going to make that work?"

"Nnnn…"

Kuma's eyes widened when his former classmate release a soft moan.

"We'll f-figure s-something… ngh… something out…"

The blonde sat up slowly and shifted his eyes from side to side. What the hell was he doing over there? It almost sounded to Kuma like… "Hey, man… Um… are you ok?"

"Oh… yeah… I um…" Kuma heard a dog bark a few times. "I'm uh… trying to… open a can of dog food… but this can opener… sucks."

Shin sounded short of breath. Was he really having that much trouble with a can of dog food? For that matter, where was he that he was around dogs anyway? Shouldn't he be at work? There was another moan and Kuma started to blush. What the hell was he doing?

"H-hey, Kuma?"

"Yeah?" he asked a bit nervously.

"I… I have to go… C-can I call you… l-later?"

Shin's voice sounded shaky. "Yeah… sure… Um… let me know if you need anything ok?"

"Thanks, bye."

The call was dropped instantly and Kuma pulled the phone from his ear. He stared at the device for several minutes with wide eyes. Shin… what the hell…?

Shinohara parked in front of the Ōedo house about a half an hour after he'd received the text message from Shin. He'd been informed that the house was vacant, save for Shin, and would remain so for a good few hours. He'd tossed some excuse to the receptionist as he causally hurried out the door and all but flew to his lover.

Shinohara entered the house silently. He heard the beautifully angelic voice of his lover and his body instantly grew hot. His shoes came off quickly and he headed toward that melodious sound. He slid the back door open without making a sound and crept up behind the conversing redhead.

Shin was sitting on the back porch with his legs dangling over the edge and one hand petting the house dog. Shinohara lowered himself to his knees with a devilish smile and inched toward his lover's back.

"Good. No reason, really. I thought it would be a nice surprise for her to see you all again."

Shin jumped a bit when Shinohara's lips met with the unsuspecting pale neck. He rolled his tongue over the smooth skin and kissed gently. There were fingers combing through his hair and he heard mumbling from the other side of Shin's head. Shinohara nipped and played at Shin's neck a bit more.

"… Yeah…," Shin said in a breathy tone.

Shinohara smiled and moved his hand. He slipped his fingers beneath Shin's shirt and grazed them over his stomach. The redhead started breathing a bit deeper and let his eyelids fall. The tips of the lawyer's fingers brushed up to Shin's chest and over a nipple. He circled his middle fingertip over the small areola. Shinohara pulled his lips from Shin's neck and gently traced a line from the young collar bone slowly up the soft neck to his lover's ear.

"Y-yeah… s-so…?"

The man heard Shin's voice starting to shake and smiled a bit deeper. He released a gust of hot air gently past the small ear by his lips and slipped his other hand beneath the boy's shirt and wrapped it loosely around the small tone waist. Shin tipped his head to the side and Shinohara felt a shift at Shin's side just in front of him. He opened his eyes half way and watched Fuji retreating to the garden.

Shinohara smirked and continued his ministrations closing his eyes again. He rubbed gently at Shin's side with the fingers of the hand he'd wrapped around his waist. He brushed gingerly over the small but erect nipple he'd been playing with then placed it between his thumb and forefinger. The lawyer heard low mumbling again. He loosely clamped his teeth onto the vulnerable flesh of Shin's earlobe and chewed. At the same time, he tightened his fingers over the boy's nipple and twisted a bit.

"Nnnn…!"

Shin arched his back when he moaned and Shinohara giggled softly. He slipped his hand from the boy's side down to his thigh. His lips and teeth played torturously at the soft neck and ear and Shinohara felt goose bumps rise on the smooth flesh. The lawyer ran the back of his hand down over the top of Shin's thigh then let the length of his fingers graze the inside on the way back up to his…

"We'll f-figure s-something… ngh… something out…"

Shinohara could hear Shin struggling to keep his voice steady when he pressed his palm briefly into the growing bulge in the apprentice's pants. He knew it wasn't working and his fingers grazed over the seams where the legs of his jeans had been joined. Shinohara licked and sucked gently at Shin's neck as his other hand began to rub tentatively over the boy's nipple. The mumbling came again and Shinohara trailed his fingers up the zipper at Shin's groin.

"Oh… yeah… I um…"

Fuji barked a little and Shin's head shifted. Shinohara kept working at the boy's neck with his tongue, the nipple with his fingers and the groin with his palm. He felt Shin try to stiffen in spite of himself.

"I'm uh… trying to… open a can of dog food…"

Shinohara lifted his fingers to the top of Shin's pants. He set his hand against the soft warm belly and slowly glided his hand beneath the elastic of Shin's boxer shorts. He heard the breath catch in his lover's throat when he brushed the growing rod.

"… But this can opener… sucks."

Shin inhaled deeply through clenched teeth and tightened his fingers in Shinohara's hair when the man's fingers connected again with his erection. Shinohara rubbed his fingers over the hard meat and pinched the nipple between his fingers again. He let his warm breath trail up Shin's neck to his ear and dragged his tongue from the lobe slowly to the top of the shell.

"H-hey, Kuma…? … I… I have to go… C-can I call you… l-later?"

The lawyer gripped the young stiff penis in his fist and squeezed a bit. His eyes opened just in time to see Shin bite his lip. He looked blissfully tortured and Shinohara's pants were extremely tight all of a sudden. The low mumbling came again and Shinohara's hand began moving under Shin's shorts. He kissed the boy's ear and whispered in a breathily erotic voice.

"Get off the phone…"

Shin nodded and inhaled deeply through his nose. "Thanks, bye."

The apprentice barely waited for the last word to leave his lips before closing his phone and setting it beside him. He pulled Shinohara's lips to his and pressed them together. Shin moaned into the older man's mouth and tightened his fingers in the soft hair when the hand around his penis started stroking more firmly. Shinohara felt fingers rubbing up and down his thigh softly then move toward the center of his pants. He moaned back when the hand grasped his package and the fingers were gone from his head.

Shinohara pinched a bit harder at the nipple in his fingers and tightened his hand again around the stiff meat he was jerking as he felt Shin unbuckle his belt and release his pants. Shin pulled at the man's pants and Shinohara lifted himself slightly. The lawyer's pants were pulled down just enough to free his aching manhood. It bobbed up and Shin's fingers were around it immediately and he was stroking tight and hard.

The brunette matched the redhead's rhythm and twisted the nipple slightly. There were fingers ghosting over his testicles and he pulled his lips from his lover's. He bowed his head and groaned into Shin's shoulder. Shinohara's grip grew tighter still and he stroked faster and harder. Shin began thrusting slightly into the man's hand and matched his pace. The lawyer started bucking his hips as well and both were groaning wildly. They were sweating and panting and jerking and thrusting for nearly twenty minutes before…

"Aaaah!"

"Aaaah!"

They came together and their lips met. They kissed deeply and passionately pulling the last few drops from the other. Shin rested his head back on Shinohara's shoulder and Shinohara rested his forward on Shin's. They held each other for several minutes before Shin spoke.

"What did I tell you last time about your dangerous impulses?"

Shinohara giggled softly. "That they were getting dangerous…"

Shin giggled back. "Dirty old man…"

"Who's an old man?"

"You are…"

-----

Shin and Yamaguchi walked side by side to the grassy field in the back of the park near the school around lunch time on Wednesday. Shin stuffed his hands into the pockets of the warm up pants he'd borrowed from Shinohara and lowered his head. He was trying to get his mind off the tall alluring lawyer and back down on earth with his friends. When he looked up, there was a soccer ball hurtling toward his head.

Yamaguchi leapt forward and flung her foot around. There was a brief bounce indicating contact then a soft whipping. Shin turned to his former teacher wide eyed. She was kneeling on the ground, one knee down, the other bent to her chin. She had a palm in the grass and the other fisted into her chest. The woman was expecting and prepared for a second attack.

They heard a soft thud then a yelp and Shin chuckled.

"Jeez, Yankumi. You didn't have to kick it so hard."

The two Yakuza rounded the front of the metal bleachers and Yamaguchi smiled. "You idiots never change, do you?"

Kuma smiled brightly and approached the two. Noda nodded and followed Kuma, smiling as well. Ucchi stood a few steps in front of Minami. Ucchi was smiling as well, but Minami… he'd greeted Yamaguchi's valiant ball return with his face and the left side was bright red.

"Bitch…," Minami mumbled and stood.

"So what have you guys been up to all this time?" Yamaguchi sat at the corner of the metal stands and fiddled with her shoelace.

As they started talking and catching up, Shin's mind began to wander. He looked off to the side and thought of his encounter with his lover the night before.

"You're doing what?"

"I'm meeting Yamamoto-kun tomorrow for lunch. Is that a problem?"

Shin stared at the older man. They were lying in Shin's bed between damp tangled sheets. Shinohara's hair was moist and matted to his forehead when he mentioned the lunch date. Shin was less than thrilled.

"I thought you were going to bring him to your apartment."

"Well I figured we could have dinner at my apartment before he goes back home, but since you're going to be free tomorrow night, I wanted to keep that open."

"Oh." Shin lowered his eyes. He wasn't sure if he should be jealous or not. Shinohara was trying to make the meeting with his friend so that the two of them would still have time together, which was nice, but… it seemed a little odd.

"What's wrong?" Shinohara leaned over and kissed Shin's cheek. He nestled himself up against the younger man's side and ran his fingers through the shaggy red hair. It was tangled from previous events so Shinohara decided to smooth it out a bit.

"Nothing…"

"That doesn't sound like nothing."

"Really. It's nothing."

"Shin?"

"…"

"Are you jealous again?"

"I'm not jealous."

"Then…?"

"It's just…" Shin paused and shifted his eyes away slightly shamed.

"Just what?"

"Do you not want me to meet him or something?"

Shinohara's eyes widened. "What?"

"I thought you were going to invite him to have dinner with us at your place."

The lawyer stared at the younger man slightly baffled.

"That's all…"

Shinohara turned Shin's head to his and planted his lips firmly against Shin's. Shin didn't move. He enjoyed the sensation of his lover's soft lips against his, but wasn't really sure what they were doing there. Shinohara pulled back and smiled.

"What was that for?"

"Being adorable."

"Shut up…"

"I didn't know you wanted to meet him that badly."

"I don't."

"So you are jealous."

"I am not!"

"How about I invite him over for dinner Friday or Saturday?"

"Why?"

"Why not?"

"Because you don't want me to meet him."

"I never said that."

"You never denied it."

"True."

Shin glared at him and Shinohara smiled back.

"Why don't you—"

"Forget it."

"No, I want you to meet him."

"As your apprentice."

"As my lover."

"You don't have to."

"Would it make you uncomfortable?"

"I don't know."

"Then don't worry about it."

"What about him?"

"What about him?"

"Aren't you worried he'll be uncomfortable?"

Shinohara dropped his eyes. "I hadn't thought of that."

"I don't think he'll be very happy to see that his long time colleague is suddenly gay."

"That is a very good point, but I still want him to meet you."

"As your apprentice."

"As Sawada Shin."

"Oi! You in there?"

Shin felt something bounce lightly off his head and he blinked back to life. He looked up to see his four friends and Yamaguchi standing on the sidelines of the field about a meter away. He sighed and put away the thoughts of his lover. They would have plenty of time to be together later that night. Shin jogged out to the field and caught the ball with his foot.

Shinohara… What was he doing?"

-----

Shinohara walked up to the café and scanned the tables inside. He'd agreed to meet Yamamoto at a local sidewalk place that served lunch. He loosened his tie a bit then moved gracefully through the tables to the fenced in area that jutted out toward the street. At a table in the far corner there was a man waving. Shinohara smiled and waved back. Yamamoto stood and returned the smile.

"Yamamoto-kun, it's been so long!"

"Yes it has. How have you been, Shinohara-kun?"

The man stood barely a centimeter above Shinohara. His shaggy silver hair fell uncurled halfway down his ears. A few wisps fell lazily over his pale forehead and piercing blue eyes. His high cheek bones and boxy jaw line accentuated the long thin nose and full lips. Shinohara didn't remember him being that handsome… but things had changed drastically since the last time they'd seen each other.

Shinohara set his briefcase by his feet and removed his suit jacket. "I've been doing pretty well. My firm has gotten so overwhelmed, I had to hire on an apprentice recently."

"Really?" Yamamoto reseated himself. "That's a good thing then, yes?"

Shinohara chuckled. "I suppose it is. How have you been?"

The man was still smiling, but the joy had drained from his face. "I've been alright."

The lawyer raised a brow. "Well… that's good."

Yamamoto sat back. The waitress stopped by the table and smiled to them. The men gave their drink orders and Shinohara looked back to the man across the table. There was something wrong.

"Yamamoto-kun, are you sure you're alright?"

He smiled that empty smile again. "It's nothing to ruin a long awaited reunion over."

"Are you sure?"

"I am." Yamamoto sipped his tea. "So tell me what you've been doing all these years?"

Shinohara smiled. Where should he begin...?

-----

"Yankumi! Get it in!"

"Right!"

The group had been playing for about two hours. Kuma was guarding the goal and Shin and Noda were battling Yamaguchi, Minami and Ucchi. The team of three was up by one goal and Kuma was getting a little tired of being deliberately wailed in the face by the ball.

Minami sent the ball flying to Yamaguchi and Shin darted toward her. She jumped into the air and swung her leg up over her head. Shin lunged at Yamaguchi just as her foot connected with the ball. The orb went sailing toward the goalie net and the teacher hit the ground with a light thud. Shin, unable to stop mid-air, landed face down on top of her…

Shin shook his head and propped himself up on his arms. He looked to Yamaguchi's face and his eyes went wide. Her eyes were closed and her mouth was slightly open. She was breathing, but not moving… He must have hit her harder than he thought.

"Yamaguchi?" Shin grabbed her shoulder and shook her gently.

"What happened?" Noda jogged up behind the fallen pair along with Minami, Ucchi and Kuma.

"I think she's unconscious." Shin tried to jolt her again. "Yamaguchi… are you ok?"

"Shit! She's dead!" Ucchi's hands went to his head and tangled into his hair. He started looking around the park nervously. "You killed her Shin! And we're all witnesses to murder! Maybe even accessories! Ouch!"

Minami's fist connected briefly with Ucchi's head. "Shut up, dumbass. She's just knocked out."

"Yeah, she looks like she's still breathing." Kuma hurried over to the goal post and retrieved his sweatshirt. When he returned to the group, he folded it and handed it to Shin. "Here, put this under her head."

"Thanks." Shin dropped the shirt to the ground and gently set the woman's head on top. She looked almost like a child to him and he let a smile breach his lips briefly.

"What?"

Shin looked to Noda. "What?"

"You smiled about something." Minami crossed his arms.

"You think it's funny that Yankumi is going to die?" Ucchi screamed and received another generous tap on his head.

"No, you idiot."

Kuma leaned over, resting his hands on his knees to look into Yamaguchi's face. "What is it then?"

"Look at her…" Shin sat back on his heals.

The remaining comrades leaned in to study their former teacher.

"What about her?" Ucchi scratched his head.

"She looks almost…" Shin smiled again.

"Like a child…," Kuma finished.

"Yeah."

"We'll probably never get to see her this peaceful again." Noda smirked.

Shin put his hand on her shoulder and jostled her again. She stirred a bit but didn't open her eyes. He shook a bit harder and her hand covered his. Shin's eyes widened and he looked to her hand. What was she doing?

"Shin…"

A soft whisper escaped her lips and her hand clenched. Shin sat back again and looked up. There were four sets of eyes on him and he felt the sweat run down his face. She needed to wake up before something completely embarrassing happened.

"Shinohara-Sensei…"

Shin's eyes narrowed immediately and his brow furrowed with irritation. He leaned back over her and shook her violently. What the hell was she doing calling out his name? Shinohara didn't belong to her… he was Shin's… all Shin's and no one else's. He shouted into her face.

"Wake the hell up you stupid pain in the ass!"

Dark eyes fluttered open and Shin's smoldering grey eyes met with confused brown ones. Shin stood. He stepped over her and stalked toward the bleachers. The conversation could be heard over his shoulder.

"What happened?"

"Shin knocked you out."

"Why?"

"He was trying to block your kick."

"Is he ok?"

"Yeah…"

"He looks pissed."

"Lie down. Are you sure you're ok?"

"I'm fine. What's with him?"

"He's just jealous 'cause you whispered someone else's name and not his."

Shin shot a glare over his shoulder at Minami.

Noda looked to Shin and his eyes widened. The look on Shin's face said it all… Shinohara-Sensei must be the name of the guy Shin was with when… well on Kuma's birthday. Shin turned away and Noda looked back to Yamaguchi. That was completely twisted.

-----

'Come by when you're done?'

'Sure. Everything ok?'

'Yeah.'

Shinohara opened his door and stepped out of his car. He grabbed the briefcase from the passenger seat and gazed up to Shin's apartment. The lawyer had developed a daily habit of going to Shin's apartment after he finished his work, and recently spent the night… Not to mention the fact that they were supposed to spend the whole evening together.

So why did Shin message him asking if he was stopping by this day? Did something happen at the park with his friends? Or Kumiko-Chan? No, if it was something with her, Shin would have said something when they'd gotten back to the house.

Shin…

The older man climbed the stairs and knocked lightly three times at the door. When it opened, there was immediately a tight grip around Shinohara's free wrist and he was pulled roughly inside. The door slammed and Shin pressed his lover to the wall. The young mouth attacked Shinohara's yearning for entrance as a hand held tight to the back of the lawyer's head and the other tugged at his pants.

Shinohara parted his lips and the hand in his hair was gone. His head connected lightly with the wall and hands worked at his pants frantically. The briefcase fell to the floor and Shinohara tangled his fingers into Shin's mop of hair. His pants were unusually loose and Shin's lips were suddenly gone.

"Ahhhh!"

Shinohara lifted his head as Shin's lips slid down his shaft and connected with his pelvis. The lawyer couldn't think. He had no idea what brought this on, but he was damned if he was going to stop it. Shin's head moved back and forth, rotated side to side. His tongue flicked and licked and his mouth sucked avidly. The older man moaned louder and his fingers tensed in the soft hair.

Fingers clenched over his buttocks and massaged roughly. He groaned and started thrusting into Shin's suction. His body grew hot… his face was beginning to drip with perspiration. He clenched his eyes, bowed his head and dropped his jaw…

"Aaaaah!"

The heat was expelled through his penis and Shin slowed. Shinohara loosened his fingers and let his head connect with the wall again. His chest rose and dropped heavily as he tried to catch his breath. Shin's mouth didn't retreat until Shinohara felt himself shrinking.

"That was amazing…" Shinohara opened his eyes and looked down to his lover.

There was no response. Shin kissed over the lawyer's hips and pelvis but did not stand.

"Shin… is something bothering you?"

"You're mine…," he mumbled softly.

"What?"

"No one else will have you but me."

"What are you talking about?"

"Say it." Shin's fingers clenched desperately around the firm moist orbs at Shinohara's back.

"Shin…?"

"I'm not finished with you yet! She can co fuck herself if—"

"Shin, what on earth has gotten into you?! Who are you talking about?"

Grey eyes shifted to black. The two stared at each other for a few seconds before Shin finally stood. He pressed his lips to Shinohara's and wrapped his arm around the lawyer's neck. Shin held tight and Shinohara slipped his hands to the boy's face. He pulled Shin off him slightly and their eyes locked again.

"Make love to me." Shin's voice was airy and seductive.

"Not until you tell me what's going on."

Shin combed his fingers up the short hair at the back of Shinohara's head. His lips brushed the lawyer's. The heat and passion were emanating from every part of Shin's body. Shinohara slipped a hand down to Shin's side. His fingers clenched… his breath hitched. Why couldn't he stop? Why couldn't he resist? His heart ached… his groin throbbed… his head spun. He wanted so badly to take Shin, but… where was all this possession coming from suddenly?

"No one but me can have you until I'm done with you."

"Sh—Shin…" The young groin pressed into his. Shinohara's eyes closed and his jaw stiffened.

"Make love to only me…"

"Shin…"

"… until I'm old and withered."

Shinohara cupped the pale face and their lips locked. The young arms tightened around Shinohara's neck and the lawyer pushed off the wall. He turned and lowered the two of them gently over the arm of the sofa. As hands started to wander and clothes were discarded, the brunette couldn't help but wonder…

TBC...
