Eiji was getting his backpack ready to his trip. He arrived home after finishing at Sakurai and went straight to take a shower, before sleeping and eating a little. His train would leave at 11 a.m and he still had two hours to spare. He was very excited with the possibility of spending an entire day with Oishi and he smiled to himself from time to time.

Suddenly, his phone rang and he answered happily.

"Oishi-san! Good morning!"

"Good morning, Eiji-kun. How are you?" he said gently. He was already at the hospital, getting ready to his volunteer work.

"I'm fine! I'm getting ready to take the train. I will be leaving at 11. You know, I talked to my parents about you going and they were happy to meet you. They even took a spare futon out, if you want to spend the night with us."

Shuichirou felt terrible. He sounded so excited. He took a deep breath, feeling sad for the words he was about to say.

"Eiji-kun, I'm sorry, but something came up. I will not be able to go. I'm so, so sorry."

"Really?" his voice was heavy with disappointment. "Are you okay?"

"I'm, but I'll be busy this weekend. I'm sorry. It happened after I talked to you and I can't postpone it."

"I understand, Oishi-san."

"I'm really sorry."

"Don't worry about it. These things happen." He forced a happy voice. "I will bring some sweets from the festival, at least, when I return to Tokyo. Is that okay? Can I meet you again?"

"Of course. Let's schedule something as soon as you arrive."

"You promise?"

"I do."

"Okay, then. I will talk to you later."

"Bye, Eiji-kun. Travel safely."

"Thank you." He said, before the call ended. Kikumaru took a deep breath and lowered his head for a moment, wanting to control that sadness on his chest.

#############

"I'm home." Eiji said when he entered his house. He was removing his shoes when his mother appeared with Haruki on her arms.

"Eiji! Welcome home!" she smiled to him and he smiled back. "How was the trip?"

"It was just fine." The baby smiled at him. He got close and kissed her forehead.

"Haru-chan, wait just a minute, I have to wash my hands." He went to the sink on the kitchen and washed his hands. "Where's Masa-nii?"

"He's sleeping. The store closed at 5 a.m. There was a birthday there and people went on drinking."

"I see." After drying his hands, he picked up his little sister and kissed her round cheeks. "Hello, Haru-chan! You're so big!"

"Aren't you tired, Eiji? Go rest a little. Masayuki and I already organized things for the festival. We will start carrying things there tomorrow morning only."

"How about the udon stock?"

"He will start preparing it at night, but the vegetables and meat are already on the fridge."

"I see." Haruki grabbed his hair. "So, I'm gonna spend some time with her on my room."

"How about your boss? Is he really coming tomorrow?"

"He's not." He showed a small smile. "Something came up."

"Ah, really? That's a shame. We really wanted to meet him."

"Yeah. I think so too." He said, before leaving to his room to play with the baby.

###############

"Wow!" Oishi smiled widely after opening the sliding back doors of their room. The view was amazing; it was possible to see a big forest and the river. The sunset was coloring everything in rich red and yellow tones. They had a private round bath inside the bathroom and Shuichirou entered it, getting close and putting his hand on the falling water.

"It's really warm." He smiled to Tezuka, but Kunimitsu wasn't paying attention to them. "Tezuka?" he looked at him and his expression was off while he looked at his cell phone.

Shuichirou was sure something was bothering him. He was extremely quiet, even more than the usual, when picking him up and during the whole way, he would only respond with monosyllables.

"Oh, I'm sorry." He finally gave him his attention. "I'm solving something from work."

He lied. After making Syuusuke come, there was an uncomfortable silence between them. Fuji sat down and looked at him seriously for a moment, before starting to collect his clothes and telling him to leave. Tezuka was confused for a moment and asked the reasons of his words.

"You're in a relationship. I was just teasing you first, but now it went further and I don't want to be the reason for you to cheat." He said, before going to his room, leaving Kunimitsu alone and confused. He dressed himself and left his apartment. Wasn't he the one who said it was not cheating on the first place? Syuusuke didn't even look at his face after they were done.

He continued to look at his cell phone in the hopes Fuji would send him a message. The memories of that night continued to repeat themselves on his mind and Shuichirou wondered why he looked so troubled.

"Are you hungry? It's almost dinner time."

"A little, yes." Oishi smiled.

"I'm going to order some food and drinks for us. I'm going to the restaurant to check the best options. Is there anything you would like to eat?"

"Nothing specially. You can choose. I'm going to take a bath while you're out."

"Okay." He said, before leaving and Shuichirou was worried. Wasn't the main goal of that trip for them to spend time together? Why didn't he talked to him about what was bothering him?

Oishi went to the bathroom and removed his clothes, taking a shower before going inside the warm water bath. It felt so good and he wished to share it with Tezuka soon.

############

Shuichirou woke up slowly. There was a small soft yellow light on at the outside porch. He remembered taking a bath, putting a yukata on and laying down while waiting for Tezuka to return when he fell asleep.

He sat down and looked at the dinner meal on the table. It had a big plate of beautiful sushi and other warm dishes as well. t him drinking on the short table at the porch. The dark eyes seemed lost far away from the night landscape and he didn't even notice when Shuichirou walked towards him, until he sat by his side. He also had taken a bath and was wearing a white yukata as well.

"Oh, you're up." Tezuka said. Oishi noticed that was already an empty sake bottle and he was drinking from another one, already on its half. "It's almost eight o'clock."

"I'm sorry." He smiled gently. "I think I was more tired than I realized."

"It's okay. We came here to rest too."

"Did you eat something?" he asked, worried. He had drunk a lot for such short time.

"Not yet. I was waiting for you."

"Why don't we eat ?" he wanted him to stop drinking for a moment or at least, put some food on his stomach.

"Why don't we do something else?" he asked, whispering, putting the cup down and pulling Oishi from his yukata to his lap. The young doctor was surprised at first, but soon closed his eyes when he started to kiss his neck.

"Ah, Tezuka…"

"Yes?" he said, between kisses, one of his hands already brushing on his chest.

"Are you really okay? You don't have to feel forced to…"

"I'm not." Tezuka had used the alcohol to push away Fuji's thoughts from him and was glad it was working. Tezuka kissed him hungrily, his hands possessively grabbing his thighs. Their mouths were still locked together when Kunimitsu removed his clothes and Oishi could see he was, indeed, perfectly well and ready.

"See?" Oishi could feel the sweet breath of sake. "I'm okay."

There was a small relieved smile on his face. Shuichirou was starting to think he was the problem.

"Let's go to bed." He whispered, the dark eyes looking at the green ones.

############

They continued to kiss deeply for a long time, now both of them completely naked. Kunimitsu caressed every part of Shuichirou's body, like wainting to prove to himself his desire for him was absolutely fine and there was no need for Fuji on his mind anymore.

"Tezuka…" Oishi stopped the kiss and caressed his face. He was already impatient. "Can we continue?"

The green eyes were filled with desire and Tezuka couldn't disappoint him. He sat down and put his hand on his hardness.

"Could you…?"

Oishi obeyed the gentle request eagerly. He licked him entirely before putting it on his mouth, feeling the heat and throbbing on his tongue.

Tezuka closed his eyes and caressed his hair for a moment. His mind was cloudy from the alcohol and that incredible sensation of Shuichirou around him. It didn't take long for him to be on the edge and he removed himself from his mouth, before kissing him again, making him lay down.

Shuichirou was already painful in anticipation. He caressed Tezuka's handsome face while he ripped the condom foil before dressing himself.

##############

Oishi's whole skin was still shaking from the outburst of deep desire. He was laying on his back, trying to calm down his breathing. His whole body was covered in sweat and his heart was beating so fast.

He looked at Kunimitsu, laying on his back by his side and Shuichirou smiled, feeling content and satisfied for things between them were back to normal.

He hugged Tezuka's chest and placed a kiss on his face. A small rain had started a few minutes ago and the sound was very pleasant.

"Was it enough for you?" he asked with a small smile, his eyes still close.

"More than enough." Oishi said, kissing him gently on his mouth. "I'm glad you're okay now. Coming here was a good idea indeed."

"I told you so." He took a deep, satisfied breath. "Is it raining?"

"Yes." He looked at the water falling from the opened back doors.

"Aren't you glad I made that kid leave your home? Otherwise, you would be worrying about him again right now."

Tezuka finally opened his eyes, feeling Oishi's body quickly removing himself from near him. He sat down and there was a deep frown on his handsome face and the green eyes were terribly serious.

"What did you just say?"
