Hey everyone! This is my first FanFic, so please don't criticize me too heavily =D it is a collection of one shots that can be followed on to each other. I am open to suggestions for story ideas, constructive criticism, and you can never have too many reviews (HINT HINT XD no, only joking. I'm not forcing you, but feel free…)!

Disclaimer; I do not; I repeat DO NOT own Gravitation, any of the songs and any of the characters. They are all copywrite the genius herself, Maki Murakami so please don't sue me! O.o

Information; hmm, I just can't seem to shake off the fluff bunnies… but I don't mind! The cuter the better… =] so, I was in Accessorize™ or Topshop™ (do I even need to tell you I don't own them? And for those of you who said yes, you need shooting =P Reiji! Get in here! LMAO OMG, I need help XD) and I saw this little pendant that was a hollow heart with a little key inside and I just had this idea!

The Key to My Heart

Sometimes, Shuichi couldn't believe how far he and Eiri had come since they had first met. At first, he had been hyper, excitable and the complete opposite of the placid, cold and aloof Eiri who had been too proud for his own good. But Shuichi had seen beyond that carefully sculpted façade to a warmer, sweeter personality. It had been hidden away for six years in a little box in his heart, just waiting for that one person with the key to come and unlock it and that person had appeared in the unlikely form of the utterly perfect and loving Shuichi Shindou. Over the years, Eiri had told him everything; why he had been this way and all his secrets and in doing so, he had discovered that Shuichi was different from all those gold-digging whores; all he had wanted was to love Eiri, for Eiri to love him and Eiri himself, nothing more, nothing less and Eiri knew Shuichi was the key to his heart. Now they had defied all the odds and were now happy with each other, something they had worked so hard to achieve.

One day, Eiri came home and saw his Shuichi sitting on the couch watching some crap children's' program that he was at least a decade too old for, but that was what made Shuichi Shuichi after all. He took off his coat, making sure to retrieve the package from his inner coat pocket before putting his coat on the hook and replacing his shoes with indoor slippers. He shuffled over to the couch and plopped down next to Shuichi who instinctively leaned into Eiri's side and snuggled into his shoulder. He heard a muffled "Okaeri." from his lover.

Eiri leaned down and kissed Shuichi on the top of his head, purposely ignoring the curious glances from Shuichi to the parcel. He loved teasing Shuichi.

After five minutes of torture, Eiri finally decided to put him out of his misery. "Oh yeah, I've got something for you." He handed him the package wrapped in sparkly purple paper and pink ribbon, not failing to notice the badly disguised sigh of relief from Shuichi who opened it like a child at Christmas, somehow managing to keep the paper intact for safe-keeping. In his hand, he held a slim book the same colour as his amethyst eyes. In gold gilt script, the cover read 'love story'. He hadn't even looked inside and yet he had stars in his eyes already. He opened the cover to the front page and read the dedication that was written in Eiri's beautiful kanji handwriting;

'The wall that once separated us is now the heap of dust in which we lie. I love you, Shuichi. You are the key to my heart.'

"Eiri… I-I don't know what to say… it's beautiful! Thank you! I love you so much!" he was wiping furiously at his eyes as tears wore a moist path down his face.

After he had managed to prise the chibi Shuichi off him, Eiri pulled him into his lap and placed a chaste kiss on his rosy lips. "Aishiteru, Shuichi."

And any doubts that lingered in their minds were now blown into the depths of eternity.

End note; just for those of you who don't know;

Okaeri – Welcome home

Aishiteru – I love you (very strongly)
