AN) Whaaa that's the fastest I've ever written a chapter. "Shuichi's scandalous outburst is nothing compared to my big mouth. I am a golden god!" So yeah it's currently 40 something below where I live, take a guess I'll give you pocky. And I'm sure as hell not going out in it so, I have a lot of time to do nothing but write until I start my job. Meaning I'll try to have another chapter up by this Wednesday.

Special AN) I got a tattoo of Kumagoro! Yeah I've officially taken fandom to far. For those interested it's the picture of him at the end of the opening song when he's sitting on the table. My mom was like "It's soooo cute!" It hurt really bad though so if anyone tells you otherwise they're lying. Anyway on with the story!

Tohma leaned back in his chair and let out a sigh. Didn't Eiri trust him enough to handle this situation himself? He could understand the author's anger, hell it had taken all his self-control not to kill Aizawa the instant he returned to NG.

"I'm taking care of everything Eiri there's no need for you to worry. You should be with Shuichi now he's going to need you." Tohma said standing and straightening his clothes.

"Were the hell is he Tohma? I have personal business with that son of a bitch and the quicker you tell me the faster I can end his short career." Eiri stated angrily.

"I already told you I'm taking care of…" Tohma was cut off as Eiri grabbed him by the shoulders.

"You don't understand! They have photos that asshole took pictures of everything they did to him. They're going to release it to the press and tell them about our relationship. Tohma please they'll take him away from me, they'll take Shuichi away!" Eiri had tears in his eyes as he yelled at the president of NG.

"Calm down Eiri just relax a little." Tohma said smoothly. It didn't take the writer long to have his emotions back under control and was once again glaring at Tohma.

"There now that you've regained some of your senses, Taki Aizawa can be found in ASK's recoding studio on the fifth floor the third door on the left once you've left the elevator." Tohma watched as his brother-in-law immediately headed to the door.

"Eiri just get the film don't kill him." Tohma said in a low voice, he meant business.

"Of course not Tohma I wouldn't want to deny you the pleasure, but I am going to beat him within and inch of his life." Eiri replied with a deadly smirk and left the office.

Eiri stepped out of the elevator calm and collect. As he made his way down the hall though he realized he didn't actually know what this Aizawa looked like. He stopped momentarily to look at a poster that was handing across the hall from the band's studio. His eyes narrowed as he honed in on the black haired singer in the middle of the poster, there was no doubt it was him. He was about to turn around when he heard the door behind him open and laughter from within. Eiri moved down the hall a little and acted like he was looking at another poster. He could just barely make out the men that had just exited the studio in his peripheral vision. They didn't seem to notice him or didn't care.

"I'll see you guys later I've got some stuff I've got to take care of before I leave." The one he assumed to be the lead singer said.

"What's so important that you can't put it off till tomorrow? We're supposed to be friends and now that we're famous you just blow us off." A man with blond hair asked.

"I'll see you later tonight besides I've got some film I need developed and I can have the guys in the lab do it here for free, and without any questions if I tip enough." The lead singer replied.

"What film?" A black haired man asked.

"Oh don't worry I'll show you guys tonight once it's done. You're going to die when you see it. I've got the goods to destroy Bad Luck and bury their lead singer six feet under." He crossed his arms and got a smug look on his face, Eiri couldn't wait to wipe it off.

The other two members of the band exchanged glances then the blond one shrugged. "Whatever Taki we'll meet you at the club tonight then." He stated and they turned and went into the elevator.

The singer of the band headed toward Eiri, who reached a hand out and grabbed him by the upper arm.

"Hey you aren't Aizawa of ASK by any chance?" He said a face smile plastered on his face.

"Yeah I am and I don't sign autographs so don't bother asking." Aizawa said pulling to get his arm away, Eiri's grip never faltered.

Eiri looked down the hallway to make sure the other band members had already boarded the elevator before he shoved the singer back into the studio he'd just exited.

"What the fuck! What the hell do you think you're doing?" Taki yelled as he turned to face his attacker.

Eiri pushed the door behind him closed then locked it. When he turned around Aizawa was glaring at him angrily.

"I believe I over heard you say something about film, I don't suppose you'll give it to me willingly will you?" Eiri said dangerously. Aizawa looked taken aback but said nothing. Eiri moved forward and with no warning punched the singer in the stomach. "Like I said we could do this the easy way or the hard way" Eiri continued and grabbed the singer by the hair to make him face him.

"I don't know what you're talking about you crazy bastard." Aizawa snapped, and tried to punch Eiri back. The novelist grabbed his wrist and gave it a sharp twist, he wasn't sure if he'd broken it or not but it was a definite possibility.

Aizawa was frightened but he wasn't about to give in.

"Why the hell does it matter to you whether I want some pictures developed? Did that little slut Shuichi tell someone? Nothings going to stop me from taking that no talent hack down." Taki said angrily.

Eiri saw red. He didn't remember many specifics afterward. Like how long he beat the other man or when the other finally went unconscious. The first thing he became really aware of was the fact that his hands were coated in the others blood. He quickly came to his senses and searched the other man for the roll of film, it was in his coat pocket. He also noted that the singer was still breathing but it was very uneven. He smirked to himself Tohma might not get to have his fun after all he thought as he left the room shutting the door behind him.

Eiri found the nearest bathroom and washed the blood from his hands. A small amount had reached his coat sleeve he washed it out as best he could. His jacket was black so no one would notice and he'd simply toss it as soon as he could.

Eiri reentered Tohma's office much more pleasantly than he had just over an hour ago. Tohma was in the middle of a phone call he quickly ended.

"So?" He asked looking Eiri up and down for any damage.

"I got it." The blond man replied lighting a cigarette and glancing idly out the large windows in Tohma's office. He made no move to show Tohma the proof of his victory it wasn't need.

"Well why don't you go home and rest for the night and join the rest of us when we go to visit Shuichi tomorrow?" The president asked. Eiri crushed his cigarette out in his hand and then tossed it in Tohma's trash can.

"No I'm heading back now. I'll swing by my place for some clothes but I want to get back as soon as possible." Eiri replied heading for the door.

"Well then I'll see you tomorrow." Tohma said picking up his phone to make another call.

The taxi ride to his home took forever in Eiri's opinion. He took a quick shower and changed into a set of clean clothes. It was six and he wanted to get back to his lover, Shuichi was probably having a come apart since he'd been gone so long. Throwing a few clean clothes in a duffel bag he headed back out to the cab he'd had wait and headed to the train station. He dumped his dirtied jacket in the first trashcan he came to and then boarded a train back to Shuichi. His guilt at leaving the singers side was beginning to swell inside him and he was near panicking by the time he finally made it back to the hospital. 'What if Shuichi thought he'd left him? What if something had gone wrong while he was away?' Eiri couldn't help such thoughts from running through his mind.

Once he finally made it to the hospital he rushed to the singer's room as quickly as possible. He felt a sense of relief wash over him when he saw the teen laying in the hospital bed fast asleep.

"It's okay now Shuichi you don't have to worry about anything." He stated softly. He pulled the blankets that had shifted as the singer slept up, and tucked them in gently making sure he didn't wake the teen.

Hiro nearly jumped out of his skin when he walked into Shuichi's room to see someone standing over the teen in the dark. He was about to shout something when he realized that it was Yuki. Hiro had only been gone for about twenty minutes. He hadn't talked to Suguru since he'd been here and the keyboardist had wanted to know how both Shuichi and Hiro were doing. Hiro had been afraid that if he used the phone in the hospital room he might wake his friend. Suguru had decided to accompany his cousin to visit tomorrow which had lifted Hiro's spirits even if it was only a little. After awhile of staring at the blond author Hiro decided to break the silence since it didn't seem like Yuki would be doing it any time soon.

"So where the hell have you been?" The red head inquired as he walked fully into the room.

"I was taking care of a few things. Was he okay while I was gone?" Eiri asked he let his fingertips ghost over the back of Shuichi's hand.

"I told him you went out for cigarettes. You're lucky they came and gave him something to help him sleep so he wasn't up long enough to notice that you didn't come back." Hiro answered. "What was so important that you had to disappear for a whole day?"

"I just needed to see Tohma about a few things." Was Yuki's curt reply.

"And it couldn't have waited until he got here tomorrow? Never mind I probably don't want to know what happened." Hiro sighed. "Well you look like shit I suggest you get some sleep tonight you'll make Shuichi worry about you if you keep looking so worn out all the time."

Eiri pulled a chair over to the singer's bed and sat down. He unconsciously slipped his hand in his pocket to reassure himself that the film was still there.

Hiro had just made it to his own chair when the novelist fell face first into the bed. Hiro reached over the bed and shook his shoulder but received no reply just a soft grunt and few snores. Shuichi had told him about how the writer could just pass out sometimes but he didn't think that it was that extreme. Hiro leaned back in his own chair and fell asleep quickly as well.

The next morning could only be described as hectic. Hiro was an early riser and had gone to get coffee, he brought some back for the novelist but decided it was best not to wake the blond. Shuichi had been the next to rise more than an hour later. He released a loud yawn as he looked over at his best friend who was reading the morning paper.

"Hey Shu how do you feel?" The guitarist asked. The singer gave him a slight smile.

"Sorer then I did yesterday." Came the soft reply. There was a grunt from the other side of the bed and Shuichi looked to see his lover sleeping next to him.

"Do you have to yap so early in the morning?" Eiri groaned out and tried to bury his head in Shuichi's blankets. The singer released a soft giggle as he mussed Eiri's blond hair. His lover was definitely no a morning person.

"Sorry Eiri didn't mean to wake you." Shuichi said softly. The writer reached up and grabbed Shuichi's hand by the wrist.

"Make it up to me then." He grumbled out taking Shuichi's forefinger into his mouth and suckling in gently.

Hiro watched as his best friend turned the brightest shade of red he'd ever seen.

"Eiri wake up! Let go and wake up!" The singer cried pulling his hand away and then knocking the writer on the head.

Eiri opened his eyes and blinked for a second before he realized what was going on. He wasn't in his bed at home, and Shuichi was so red that he could feel the heat emanating off the teen. He sat up quickly worry etched on his face, obviously afraid that he might have done something to hurt his lover.

Hiro sat chuckling in his chair as Eiri fussed over the singer. Shuichi was so embarrassed by the situation that he couldn't speak.

"So is this how most mornings go for the two of you? No wonder you're always late for work Shu." Hiro said getting both men's attention. It was Eiri's turn to get a faint blush as he sat back down and tried to look as dignified as he could under the circumstances. Shuichi tried to launch himself at his best friend but was too tangled in his sheets to make it. Eiri was still brooding and Hiro was still taunting his best friend when a knock on the door got their attention. A young woman with shoulder length black hair stood in the doorway.

"Shindou-san I presume?" She asked entering the room. Shuichi nodded at her. He looked down at his lap he already knew what was coming. The last time he'd been hospitalized because of Aizawa the same thing had happened they wanted him to "talk" about it.

"I'm Natsumi Mizu." She said smiling gently at him. "And you two must be his friends I was informed that there have been people here the entire time. If you don't mind I would like to speak to Shindou-san alone for a little while."

Eiri and Hiro both exchanged looks as they stood and moved to the door. "Don't worry Shu we'll be right outside." Hiro said as he pulled the door closed.

"If the hospital sent you I don't want to talk about it I'm fine." Shuichi said not lifting his eyes.

"Well I do work for the hospital but that's not the only reason I'm here. The police would also like a statement about what happened, and thought it best if I asked for it instead of sending in two cops." She pulled a few pieces of paper out and handed Shuichi a pen. "Just write down anything you can remember, your friends have already given their statements." The woman sat back and simply watched as Shuichi wrote out his version of what had happened. He finished and handed the paper back to her, she placed it in a folder and slid it into her brief case.

"You're not going to read it?" He asked surprised.

"No that's just for the police, I would like to hear what happened from you personally. You don't have to tell me everything but I'd like to help you if you'd let me." She said. Shuichi stayed silent.

"I have a few questions to start with. You've been living with Eiri Yuki-san for the past nine months correct?" Shuichi nodded. "Why did you return to your parents house after the rape then, Yuki-san's house is much closer isn't it?" Shuichi stayed silent.

"Were you afraid of Yuki-san?" Shuichi's head snapped up to stare at the woman, where was she going with this.

"Eiri would never hurt me!" Shuichi cried out.

"Were afraid of what his reaction would be?"

"I-I don't want him to hate me." Shuichi whispered, tears falling from his eyes. "Eiri shouldn't be forced to take care of some filthy brat."

"Do you think he feels that way?" Natsumi asked.

"I don't know, I don't know how Eiri feels I never now what he's thinking." Shuichi sobbed through his tears.

"He's been at the hospital this entire time with you, and he's the one who brought you here from your parent's house. I'd say the answer's pretty obvious."

There was a sudden commotion outside the door and Shuichi could make out Ryuichi demanding to be let in to see his friend. Natsumi looked at Shuichi who was drying his tears and putting a smile on.

"Well I guess you have more guests so I'll come back and talk with you more tomorrow." She stood and went to the door. "If you won't be honest with me Shindou-san then you should at least be honest with Yuki-san he cares deeply for you." With that she disappeared out the door.

Eiri had been the first to be spotted by Tohma and the rest of his party. He'd been in the process of getting a cup of coffee when Tohma had suddenly appeared beside him with his usual all knowing smile. Suguru was looking around in search of his boyfriend and Ryuichi was attached to Tohma's arm pleading to be taken to Shuichi.

Eiri guided them back down the hall and stopped outside Shuichi's room. Sakuma was just about to burst into the room when Eiri grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and tugged him back. The singer gave a surprised yelp and turned wide scared eyes up to Yuki.

"There's someone in there right now so you'll just have to wait." He said a little more sternly the he meant too. Ryuichi's eyes began to fill with tears but Tohma managed to get control of the situation before things turned bad.

"Don't worry Ryu we'll get to see him soon. Why don't you draw him something before we go in?" The keyboardist suggested. Ryuichi instantly produced crayons and paper and began drawing, while babbling incoherently to his stuffed rabbit.

Hiro and Suguru had moved off a ways and looked ready to maul each other and any given moment. Eiri turned back to Tohma and began to talk to kill time.

They'd been talking for awhile when the conversation turned to what Shuichi had said the day before. Eiri mentioned how he heard the singer say he was going to quit the band, he was stopped from explaining the rest when Ryuichi began to shout.

"No he can't quit! Let me in let me talk to Shu-chan!" The singer cried and leaped for the door again. This time both Eiri and Tohma had to hold the singer back as he struggled. A few seconds later the door opened and Natsumi stepped out. Ryuichi broke free immediately and ran into the room.

"Well I'll leave Shuichi to you I'll be back tomorrow to talk with him again." With that she head down the hall.

Tohma and Eiri's attention was drawn back to the scene unfolding in Shuichi's room. Ryuichi had his head buried in the pink haired singers chest and was begging him not to "Stop being shinny". Shuichi seemed to be in a state of shock. He hadn't known that Ryuichi was coming to visit and he had no idea what the singer was talking about.

"They said you were going to stop singing. You can't Shu you'll get better and then you'll come back to work right?" Ryuichi pleaded. "I'll give you anything you want! You can even have Nittle Graspers studio."

Shuichi didn't know how to answer he couldn't tell Ryuichi his reasons but he hated seeing the man like this.

"Of course he's going back to work, if I kept him home all the time I'd never get anything done." Eiri said coming into the room. Shuichi looked up at him his eyes were cool as ever they held no doubt whatsoever. Without asking Tohma answered Shuichi's question.

"Everything's been taken care of Shuichi-kun, you have absolutely nothing to worry about." Tohma's tone left no room for doubt.

Though Shuichi didn't understand exactly what was going on he didn't have to at the moment. He trusted Eiri and Tohma completely. He hugged Ryuichi as hard as he could.

"Don't worry Sakuma-san I won't stop singing I promise, but only on one condition." He said sternly. Ryuichi turned large teary eyes up to him.

"You have to promise you'll sing with me again." Shuichi said happily.

"Fine but you have to promise that you won't call me Sakuma anymore, I'm Ryu-chan and you're Shu-chan." Ryuichi said. Shuichi nodded in agreement and the two began talk and giggle happily to one another.

Tohma glanced at Eiri and the two walked out into the hall together. "Why don't we get something to eat?" Tohma suggested. Eiri shrugged and followed the NG president to the nearest vending machine. Eiri highly doubted that year old chips constituted a meal but he took the offered bag and ate it anyway.

"So?" Eiri asked.

"I've taken care of everything. It's best we discuss it at a later date but rest assured there will be no further problems in the future." Tohma's voice was low and deadly.

"You know you can be one creepy bastard sometimes." Eiri stated.

"Pot calling the kettle black Eiri? You were pretty scary yourself yesterday. I guess we both can go a little over board when we want to protect the things we care for." Tohma replied. They were headed back to Shuichi's room when a loud crashing noise caught Tohma's attention. He glanced at Eiri who just shrugged. Tohma approached the door the sound had come from and turned the handle.

"Is everything alright?" He asked as he pulled the door open. All he needed was one look at his cousin wrapped around one Hiroshi Nakano to reassure himself that everything was fine. He slammed the door shut and turned back to Eiri who was giving him a questioning look.

"Shall we?" He asked and started back down the hallway eye twitching slightly. Eiri smirked few things compared to seeing Tohma Seguchi frazzled.
