Youngsubsministhatzeh: I love that reaction, no matter how many time I get it lol XD. You totally flatter me to no end. Aw chucks, now I'm blushing—it's not that praise worthy haha but you have no idea how wide I'm grinning right now while typing this (I feel like an idiot since I prefer to refrain from showcasing obvious emotions). Even so, it touches my soul to know this makes your day better. My pleasure! I always respond to all my reviewers—I very much appreciate their effort to leave some feedback. When I started out, I was sure this couple wouldn't get any publicity but I'm glad that's changed. You're awesome! Thanks for the heartfelt review!
Daime Guiral: Haha that first part made me laugh. Lol! Wow, I'm honored, that means a lot to me- to be able to change your impression of a character—cool! Well Ayanami was the villain of the anime (but I always fall for the villains). Haha high five, I'm with you on dominant semes, and suffering ukes. Damn, you're the second person I know who actually cried for Mika lol, *turns to Mikage* :-You hear that Mika, you're getting extra love now! Wow, it's funny you bring that up: a while back I was thinking the same—to create another few fics of them in an alternate universe; for instance, Aya as a teacher and Mika as a student but then I thought 'Meh, no one really knows this couple anyway, forget it.' The fact that you mention that, it gives me the confidence to go for it (except now I'm full) because I've always enjoyed this couple and wanted to create something even after this fic was concluded. Anyhow, Thanks for the amazing review!

Chapter 27:
"I'll be leaving. If you need anything ask the guards," Ayanami fixed his hat and quickly bent down to give the younger a kiss on the cheek. "Otherwise spend your time leisurely." He concluded with a smirk.
"Hai…have a safe trip." Mikage ushered, looking up from his game which he was playing while laying on his stomach. With that, the elder closed the door to Mikage's new office room and left the mansion for work. As soon as the blond figured Ayanami had left the vicinity of their mansion, he sighed and rolled over on his back, ditching the game controller.
'Why am I not going to work also? Apparently, I'm under house arrest. Or at least one of sees it that way. I feel precious alright—stuck in a mansion surrounded by security— more like a sheltered princess.' He deadpanned in his head. 'Ayanami-san even told the guards not to let me leave—really.' The teen attempted to roll back on his stomach but twitched with pain. 'Ugh, it's not like I can leave anyway with my lower half sore like this. Yesterday they did countess times…'
Flashback:
Ayanami poured an ample amount of gel lubricant on to his right hand, lathering his long fingers well. 'Chamomile, this time.' Mikage mindlessly noted the cover of the tube while he lay on his back exhausted from coming twice already. 'It was a different flavor almost every time and was always hand picked by Ayanami himself.' However, the chief's favorites were peach and lavender scented. The elder poked his hole before ripping it open with his middle finger, stroking the surrounding walls with force and attempts to loosening them.
"Ah!" Mikage jolted at the tingling cool feeling he could never fully fathom. Since the teen was so used to it by now, the silverette didn't wait long to insert another finger and push it deeper, searching for Mikage's sensitive spots. "Mn…hah—not there, please…"
"But you react so well whenever I rub against this." Ayanami demonstrated and gave the inner layer a hard drag causing the younger to arch backwards almost immediately. That was exactly why the blond didn't prefer that spot because of the fact that it made him lose total control of his body and surrendered it to the pleasure. Next, the elder scissored his fingers for the longest time, making the other believe he could cum just from being teased down there. Unlike all the other times where Ayanami would loosen him up and thrust in first— enjoying later, this was one of those few times Ayanami ravished and played with the younger to no end. That only occurred when he really wanted to indulge the teen and also amuse himself.
"Ah—Ayanami-san…it's enough already…" The blond begged.
"Not yet." The silverette arched over him and said. "We can't have our precious Mikage-kun getting hurt, can we?" He played with those words, redefining his goal with every syllable. The teen inwardly sucked his tongue, draping an arm over his eyes and regretting his own words from before. 'Okay he was loved—he got it already!'
"Erg…" The blond cringed when he felt his lover's finger stretch horizontally at the corners of his hole. They continued to stretch and pull back and forth until the younger was ready to take in any kind of length. Then, all Ayanami needed was two of his large hands—that encompassed Mikage's entire lithe waist—to propel the younger close to him and insert his erection. The elder began to rock the teen back and forth, evoking a moan every time he did so until he picked up the pace.
'How he missed this, even if they weren't able to do it for only the past couple of days.' Ayanami registered. There was a special, insatiable feeling being inside Mikage, how his small body tightened around him no matter how many times they did it. His scent, his expressions, that sweet panting voice, his body—everything. He wasn't ever going to share them with anyone and regardless of what Mikage said—or for that matter anybody—he wasn't going to let the other go.
The silverette fought the friction inside harder as they were almost at the climaxing point. With one last thrust, the blond couldn't hold back anymore and curled his toes in response to his orgasm. Ayanami only watched him, and that alone rendered him to finish as well. He pulled himself out and removed the condom, only to reach over to the night stand and pull another one out. Mikage looked at him with a vacant expression, brown eyes clouded with tears as his body lay limb on the bed. Ayanami smiled and brought the glossy packet centimeters away from the younger's lips. "Here, hold this tightly between your teeth." Ayanami instructed and the blond absent-mindedly did so. The elder tugged at the corner of the condom packet to make sure it was securely held before tearing it open sideways using the blond's mouth as the tool.
The silverette wore the condom on and helped the younger turn over on his stomach, positioning him upward. "Mikage-kun remember this, you're being deeply loved right now." He still held on to that entertaining tone of his. He penetrated inside again, however this time gluing the teen's back on to his chest with an arm over the other's thorax, keeping him close.
"Arh—ah! Aya—Ayanami—sa!" Miakge barely managed to hold himself up, with his fists curling the bedsheets under him.
The chief slid his hand over the teen's body to encircle around the younger's new hard on and pressed down on the tip. "Not yet."
"Wa—ah, no—mhn…pleas—" The blond clenched his eyes shut, fighting the swarms of sensations in his stomach and lower abdomen. He couldn't hold on much longer. Mikage thought as his elbows trembled. With another few thrusts and painful bites on his nape and shoulders, Ayanami finally granted him the mercy to cum, which he did soon enough. The teen collapsed on to his stomach smearing it with the slippery sheets, but that was the last of his worries at the moment. His lungs were compressed but he still panted for air as sweat rolled down his face. Ayanami tried to balance his breathing as well as he caressed a finger down on the spine of the younger's sweaty back. Impulsively he hovered over the teen again, placing a gently hand on the small shoulder and urging him to turn around to face him.
'Again?! Are we doing it again?!' Mikage's thoughts screamed. However, to his surprise, the elder only smooched his face, connecting their lips. The kiss had no malice behind it and it was kind of sweet. Somewhere along the process, Ayanami had the other shifted around and smoothly with the bed against his back again. Mikage also didn't realize when he had wrapped his arms over the other's neck and magically responded back.
End of Flashback.
Mikage blushed a steam of colors as he recalled that flashback in his mind. 'I need to do something else.' He forced himself up and down the stairs into the kitchen. After grabbing a snack, he went back upstairs and caught a glance at the library door. 'Hey yeah…I remember almost looking into a photo album right before we left.' For the sake of nothing better to unravel, he scouted that album again and roamed through the pictures. Most of them were of people he had no knowledge of, with some of the Black Hawks and the rest of Ayanami. One looked like a king and queen—of the Raggs perhaps? (Since it was their album). Another was of a dark brown haired man, hair very similar to that of Teito's and a brilliant smile. As he passed a few more pages, there was that dark haired man again, yet this time with a man roughly the same height as him—both could probably pass as twins. Though this man had straight pale blond—no whitish blond hair, which were different than Ayanami's, but their frames were similar.
'Wow, who are these people?' Was all Mikage could think as he flipped through the pictures of these elegant looking figures. The picture that really caught his attention was of a trio, having him recognize Hyuuga and Ayanami but not the man who stood next to them. Ayanami appeared stoic as usual and Hyuuga his carefree self. However this third man who had black hair and wore glasses, stood beside Ayanami and actually presented a serene expression with him. 'Who is this?' Mikage was super intrigued and wanted to know more about this being. He glanced outside the window where the guards watched the gates. There was no way he could go outside to ask Hyuuga himself. He took the album back to his separate room and examined it once more. A lot of these people that he had no knowledge of must be connected to Ayanami one way or the other—that was obvious.
'Ah, of course! He could just call the brunette.' Mikage resolved, scooping up his phone. 'Now let's just hope he isn't close to Ayanami…'
…
"Isn't that your phone vibrating?" Konatsu acclaimed.
"Oh yeah it is, excuse me for a bit." Hyuuga reached for his phone.
"Just don't use this as a chance to slack off." The blond added, as the elder walked out.
"Hello~?" The brunette greeted with a jovial tone as always.
"Hyuuga-san, it's me, Mikage."
"Ah! M—"
"Don't say my name!" The teen instantly cut him off with a hiss.
"Ah…um okay—what's up?"
"Are you alone?"
"I am now." The lieutenant turned the hall way and leaned against the wall.
"Sorry for the trouble, I just wanted to ask you something." Mikage spoke.
"Then why not just ask the next time ya see me?" Hyuuga proposed with a smile.
"Well…I'm not sure when that'll be…" The blond averted his eyes, wondering if he should annunciate his circumstances. "Anyway, I found this photo of you, Ayanami-san and a third person. I was just wanted to know who that was—black hair and wears glasses too—"
"Oh? Could ya perhaps be talking about Yukikaze?"
"Yukikaze…?" That was the first time Mikage had heard such a unique name.
"Yeah he was Aya-tan's late begleiter." The younger's eyes widened at that. So, he did have a begleiter…The only part that was difficult to imagine was Ayanami working with someone else and not over them. Of course, his own case was special.
"Ayanami-san's begleiter? He's never mentioned that before, what was Yukikaze-san like?" The teen was desperate to know about this Yukikaze.
"What are you doing here Hyuuga?" An all too familiar voice startled his ears, rendering him to move away from the phone automatically as if he was there too. It was Ayanami.
"Heya Aya-tan—don't mind me, I'm just taking a business call." Hyuuga deceived the other so casually.
"Business call? Don't joke with me—get back to work." Ayanami huffed, passing him by.
"Haha sure thing." The brunette promised turning back to the phone. "Yo, still there?"
"Mh." The younger nodded.
"Where were we?"
"You were talking about Yukikaze-san? How did he die?" The blond found his voice again.
"Ah that, we don't talk much about it, he died during the last war with the Raggs…um, I think it was from protecting Aya-tan that time…" That was all Mikage needed to hear.
"I get it. Thanks a lot Hyuuga-san, I owe you."
"Later~" The lieutenant cooed. The blond hung up but continued to hold the phone in his hands in thought. 'He sacrificed his life for Ayanami-san, there's no doubt he loved Ayanami.' The younger mused. 'but…how did Ayanami-san feel? If—only if there was a probability—the silverette also adored him, and thus lost him in front of his eyes, then that does explain why he behaves the way he does. Maybe.'
…
Dinner was silent as always, not much talking from Ayanami's side and today he was quiet and deep in thought too. 'I could always just ask him directly, right?'
"Ayanami-san, I was wondering—did you ever have a begleiter before?" The blond pretended not to know.
There was a brief pause as the elder stared at his plate before sipping from his spoon. "No." Mikage disbelieved his ears and lacked the words needed to continue the conversation.
'Okay, that was unexpected…' The blond poked the vegetables on his plate with his fork. He was uncertain if he should even carry on but he dared himself to. "Then, what about…Yukikaze-san?"
Ayanami's utensil froze in his hand and deep lavender eyes dilated. "Where did you hear that name from?"
"Uh," The teen wasn't anticipating that reaction either. "I …found a picture and kind of asked around…" He also didn't have the quick capability to improvise a lie.
"Asked around? Who?" The silverette had his face lowered to the point that his wavy locks no longer presented his eyes.
"…"
"I asked who you had the time to question while being caged in here all day." His tone was heavier now, like it was being tugged by gravity itself, making it sound darker by the moment.
"…I'll tell you only if you promise not to hold it against them." Mikage attempted a first try at negotiating.
"Would you rather I hold it against you?" The elder lifted his chin to connect their eyes, vulnerable honey brown ones clashing with downturned violet ones.
A fail. "…Hyuuga-san…" The blond muttered, dropping his gaze to the table.
"Did you leave the manor?" The elder seemed to pick up a slightly different tone after hearing that name and crossed his arms as he interrogated his lover.
"No, I called."
That's when a relevant flashback from this afternoon took place: '—don't mind me, I'm just taking a business call.' "I didn't know Mikage-kun acted like such a spy behind my back." When the chief put it that way, the teen felt disgraced with himself.
"I don't! I mean it." The younger immediately defended, hoping to sound as earnest as possible. That indeed was a shameful act—to not trust in one's partner—but that wasn't his intentions for doing so.
"Then how do you explain this?" Ayanami's eyes practically glared at him from across the table while his voice lost the playfulness it had a few seconds ago. The elder was so skilled in intimidating that the blond forgot all about Yukikaze and the main purpose of their chat.
"…I'm sorry, I didn't want to disturb your work." Mikage answered after a while.
"But you disrupted Hyuuga's work." The elder pointed out relentlessly.
'I know. I'm sorry already!' Mikage mentally frowned. Sometimes the other's emotional condemnations were more nerve wrecking than his physical abuse.
"So, what did you find?"
"Eh?"
"Why won't you tell me what interesting information you've gathered on Yukikaze." The silverette repeated.
'I can't. I can't tell him I know most of the story—or else I'll seriously open up an old wound.' "Nothing really, just the name." Would he believe that? Ayanami's continued to observe him. The younger noticed his countenance tighten even further and he wasn't liking that.
"Get up." Were the only words Ayanami uttered and there was no joke behind them.
"Ayanami-san?" Mikage slowly mouthed in confusion as he dragged his chair back. The silverette stood up from his chair as well and took long strides to the younger. Without warning he gripped the teen from the collar and roughly dragged him out of the dining room to the living room space. "Ayanami-san! Wai—" The blond immediately panicked at the brisk behavior, traumatically foreseeing things going downhill. The elder threw him across the room, on the carpeted floor where the blond knocked into the corner of the center table they had.
"Arg! Ouw…" The teen cried at the sharp pain that hit his shoulder blade until he pressed a consoling hand over it. There would definitely be a bruise in that spot tomorrow.
"What makes you think you can lie to me Mikage-kun? How dare you look down on me like that?" The chief's face held a completely new, grim expression whose deadly aura surrounded him all over. 'This was it.' Mikage stared intensely at the other, not affording to blink even once while he actually feared for his life now. He was a complete idiot to push the other this far.
Just where did he go wrong?
To Be Continued…
Mika sure knows how to get in trouble, no more like Ayanami's just on the psycho edge. You can never expect how the other will react, and that feeling itself is stressing but Mika's still holding on. The next few chapters will be really good so just hold on a little longer if you feel sorry for Mikage now. That's all for now—see you soon!
