Ch.12 Thunder Rumbles

Tezuka lightly shakes Fuji, "Syusuke… hey Syusuke. We're here."

Fuji lifts his head and rubs his eyes, looking around in confusion, "Where?"

"Kyoto."

Fuji opens his eyes, "Oh yeah…how long was I asleep?"

"For about two hours."

"I'm sorry, I was very tired."

Tezuka smirks, "Well, I did keep you up for a while last night"

Fuji turns bright red, stands up, and walks off the train, "Idiot."

Tezuka rushes to catch up to him and whispers in his ear, "It's too late to be shy now."

Fuji speeds up his pace, "Can we drop the subject?"

Tezuka smiles and holds Fuji's hand, "But I love your reactions."

Fuji looks at their hands, * even though it's okay to do this in Kyoto since no one knows us, it's still embarrassing.*

"What are you looking at Syusuke?"

Fuji looks up, "Hn? What?"

Tezuka shakes his head, "No, nothing."

Fuji squeezes Tezuka's hand, "What are we going to do?"

"First we are going to eat at a restaurant, then go to the aquarium, and then the Ferris wheel."

"Wow, how prepared. You planned ahead?"

"Of course, it's out first date."

Fuji looks down at the floor to hide his flushed face, "Hnn."

"It's about two blocks away; the best sushi restaurant in Kyoto."

"And you know sushi is my favorite food…"

"Yeah."

Fuji runs his hand through his hair and smiles, "You are too perfect Kunimitsu…"

"I was your friend and brother before I was your lover, it would be horrible if I didn't know you like the back of my hand by now."

Fuji looks at Tezuka, "I guess you're right…but you are still amazing."

Tezuka opens the door of the restaurant for Fuji, "Nothing is amazing in my plain want to please my boyfriend."

Fuji walks to the table in a far end of the restaurant, "The fact that you have that plain want is what is amazing, and you are so good at it."

Tezuka chuckles and pulls the chair out for Fuji, "You are too easy to please."

Fuji sits down, "You said that yesterday, and I guess I am… especially when it comes to you."

"Hmm, how blunt." Tezuka sits down and looks at Fuji.

Fuji smirks, "There's nothing to be shy about, nee Kunimitsu?"

Tezuka shrugs, "You are right, I guess we don't need to hide anything from each other."

"Hide? You've hidden things from me?"

Tezuka grins, "Yes…things like my love for your sleeping face. Or how I love how your voice sounds when you say my name."

Fuji's face reddens and he puts his head down, "…please keep things like that to yourself. It's too weird, what you just said sounds nothing like you."

"It doesn't sound like me because I keep these things to myself."

Fuji looks up, "Then why say it now?"

Tezuka looks into Fuji's eyes, "Because we are lovers…now I can say it."

"My heart can't keep up with you."

Tezuka laughs, "What?"

Fuji sits up, smiling, "It's going to explode out of my chest; everything you say makes my heart beat triple."

"I like this, being truthful suits you well Syusuke.

"…it's going to take a while to get used to it."

"I would guess so, for me as well. " Tezuka looks at the waitress that seems to be eavesdropping in their conversation and calls her over.

Her face is flushed, "Y-Yes, would you like to order?"

Fuji smiles at her, "I want three wasabi sushi rolls."

"May I get a salmon sushi roll, and two eel sushi rolls?"

She jots that down and looks up, shifting her gaze to the table, "Anything to drink?"

"Coke."

"Water."

"Okay, your order will be here soon."She bows and hurries away.

Fuji laughs, "You noticed how flushed she was?"

"It's because she heard most of our conversation- she knows we're together."

Fuji reaches across the table for Tezuka's hand, "The way people react makes me laugh."

Tezuka squeezes Fuji's hand, "You aren't scared? Embarrassed?"

"What, of these people knowing? No because I don't know them, and they won't be hurt if they find out about our relationship…but with our family, it's a different story. "

Tezuka sighs, "Yeah…a completely different story. But can we really keep it from them for long?"

"We have to try to keep it from them for as long as we can."

"You want to delay the drama as far back as you can, right?"

Fuji smiles sadly, "Yeah."

Tezuka caresses the back of Fuji's hand, "Well no point of worrying about that now, let's just enjoy ourselves."

Fuji nods, "You are right, it's our first date-lets have fun."

The waitress arrives with their food and gives each order to the corresponding person. She quickly looks at both of them, "Anything else?"

Fuji smirks, "Ah yes."

The waitress looks at him, "Yeah?"

Fuji plays with a lock of the waitress's hair while looking into her eyes with his blue ones, "There is no need to be so flustered, is there? Why don't you smile, that frown is ruining your pretty face. Gay guys don't bite, so don't worry."

"Ah…hn, sorry." She nods and quickly walks away.

Tezuka chuckles, "I would have been jealous if I didn't know you were just teasing her."

Fuji eats one of his wasabi sushi, "There was no reason for her to be like that. But I said we were gay- are we?"

"Well…yes, technically. But I've never liked any other guy before you."

"Same, and I still find girls attractive."

Tezuka dips his sushi in soy sauce, "it doesn't matter; we are who we are."

Fuji finishes his first roll, "Hnn."

"Even after all this time, I still don't know how you eat those."

Fuji smiles sadistically, "Want to try one?"

"I'd rather not."

"Aww, but you tried it before."

Tezuka's eyebrow twitches, "I'll never fall for that again, I regret trying it when we were small."

Fuji smiles, "No fun, I enjoyed seeing you go through a gallon of water in about two minutes."

"You were born sadistic..."

Fuji laughs, "I was."

After a while Tezuka looks at Fuji, "Are you done?"

Fuji finishes his coke, "Yeah, you?"

"Pretty much." Tezuka waves his hand to get the waitress's attention.

She comes over to the table, "Yes?"

"The bill please."

"Just one moment Sir," she leaves and comes back with the bill.

Tezuka looks at it and takes a few bills out, handing the money and the bill to the waitress, "Thank You."

Fuji stands, "Don't think I'm going to let you pay for me every time, in the next date I will take care of everything."

"Yes, yes, Syusuke."

Fuji's eyes narrow when he sees a familiar looking guy on the other side of the restaurant. The guy had ear length wavy black hair, pale skin, and piercing blue eyes; exactly like Mori in Fuji's class. *Fuck, I hope that's not Mori.*

Fuji grabs Tezuka's arm and pulls him towards the door, "Come on, let's go to the aquarium."

"S-Syusuke what's the hurry?"

Fuji stops pulling when they are away from the restaurant, "I think I saw Mori Ryuu from my class in the restaurant."

Tezuka runs his hand through his hair, "You think he saw us?"

Fuji stares at the floor, "I don't know…I hope not."

"If he did…is he the type to tell other people?"

Fuji shakes his head, "I don't think so, he's very outgoing and popular- but he's also very nice and polite."

Tezuka sighs, "Well I guess there is no point in worrying. Let's just go to the aquarium."

Fuji holds Tezuka's hand again, "Yeah."

They walk to the aquarium holding hands and talking happily, totally ignoring the nasty looks and curious people. Tezuka pays for their admission ticket and they walk to the first room. It had a bluish glow because there is huge tank of fish that took up the whole side of the weirdly shaped room. Fuji rushes up to the glass like a little kid and stares in amazement.

Fuji pulls Tezuka up close, "Look! Look how big that blue and yellow one is."

Tezuka chuckles, "You are like a seven year old."

"Oh whatever…last time I went to an aquarium was when I was like eight."

Tezuka wraps his hands around Fuji's waist and chuckles, "I remember it was about a year after our parents had married and your reaction was almost exactly like this time."

Fuji smiles, "Well, this is really beautiful and amazing. Obviously I'd react this way. "

"I think your innocent reactions are cute."

Fuji blushes, "Idiot…you are lucky you can keep a poker face like that."

Tezuka grins, "It's a skill I've perfected."

"Yes, yes..oh! Let's see the sharks!!" Fuji pulls Tezuka towards the next room.

"You don't have to pull Syusuke."

"Sorry" Fuji points at a shark looking straight at them, "Look how big its teeth are! Damn… I should have brought my camera!"

Tezuka shakes his head, "I'm happy you didn't, you would be too obsessed over taking pictures and it wouldn't be a date."

Fuji laughs, "Yeah, that's so true."

Tezuka lowers his head to whisper in Fuji's ear, "But…I wish I had pictures of all the adorable expressions you are making. I would put them in a photo album."

Fuji elbows Tezuka, "Kunimitsu! You are so embarrassing."

"I'm just being truthful."

They spend about an hour in the beautiful and lively aquarium. Fuji pulls Tezuka to each room like an excited child and they share laughs and caresses while staring at the different tanks in amazement. After going to each room in the aquarium, the couple walks towards the Ferris wheel. They walk for a few blocks, still holding hands, under the setting sun. Finally getting on the Ferris wheel, Fuji sits next to Tezuka and looks around in awe.

"…this is gorgeous; the Ferris wheel gives such a great view of the city and the sun."

Tezuka touches Fuji's hair, "…"

Fuji turns to Tezuka and looks into his eyes, smiling, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about how beautiful you look in this light…"

Fuji brings Tezuka's hand to his cheek, "I had a feeling you'd say something like that. Your sweet Kunimitsu…and your hands are warm."

Tezuka inches closer to Fuji, "Only towards you, I'm the iceberg remember?"

"But you melt when I'm around." Fuji closes his eyes and kisses Tezuka lightly. Tezuka places his hand behind Fuji's head and brings him closer, heating up the kiss. He slips his tongue into Fuji's mouth, but keeps a steady slow pace, matching the romantic scenery.

Tezuka sighs, "Too bad we are in the Ferris wheel."

Fuji laughs and tilts his head sexily, "Haven't you had enough?"

"It's never enough when it comes to you."

Fuji rests his head on Tezuka's lap and looks up at him, lovingly, "What am I going to do about you?"

"There is nothing you can do. I'm going to be around for a while."

Fuji's pacific oceans shimmer, "You better…"

Tezuka holds Fuji's hand and kisses it, "You worry too much."

Fuji caresses Tezuka's cheek, "You do too; you just hide it better."

Tezuka touches his forehead to Fuji's, "I love you Syusuke, and I always will- not matter what happens."

Fuji smiles angelically, "I love you too Kunimitsu."

The golden orange sunlight shines on the lovers brilliantly, almost giving shape to their joyful aura. After what seems like an eternity of bliss, they get off the Ferris wheel and head towards the train. They take the long way to the train, cherishing the last few moments of freedom they would have for a while. They get on the train and ride it back to Tokyo; both of them adorably falling asleep this time. Luckily, they wake up a few stop before their own and get off on their stop.

Tezuka lets go of Fuji's hand, "…we can't anymore."

Fuji realizes where they were and inches away a bit" Oh yeah…"

"Please don't look so sad Syusuke, we'll have more dates."

Fuji walks to the exit, "Yeah, I know."

They walk in silence for a while until Fuji's cell phone rings. Fuji takes his navy blue cell phone out of his pocket and flips it open. *New text message? …the number is private* Fuji reads the message in silence and almost faints, the world was spinning.

"You disgust me. If you don't break up with Tezuka I will tell

the whole school and your family that you and him are lovers.

-Your worst nightmare"
