Wedding of Time

Chapter 5



Kouji comes over to where they are standing. "What's all the noise about?"

"Hikou's roommate is my new tennis partner." said Tasuki.

"You mean the one you li..." Kouji stops talking. 'I almost let the cat out of the bag. I have to watch what I say or Tasuki is going to kill me.' "You mean the one that almost beat you?"

'That was a good recovery, but he is still going to get it later." Tasuki thought. "Yes. He is the

one."

"You must be really good if you almost won against Tasuki. There are not many people who have beaten him at tennis." Kouji said.

"I guess." said Chichiri. 'I wonder what Kouji was about to say before he stopped?'

"Is dinner ready, Kouji?" asked Hikou.

"Yes. I almost forgot to tell ya'll that." Kouji smiled at Hikou and started for the kitchen.

"Great, I am hungry." said Hikou.

Hikou walked over to the table followed by Chichiri and Tasuki. Kouji came out of the kitchen with the last of the food and put it on the table.

"Have a seat, everyone." said Kouji.

Kouji sat down, followed by Hikou who sat right beside him. Tasuki and Chichiri sat down beside one another with their roommates on their other side.

Kouji nodded that they could start to eat and so they did. They talked while they ate. They mainly talked about school and their classes. Tasuki and Chichiri talked about tennis for a little bit.

'This is the night I am going to ask Hikou out. I hope he says yes. I will ask him when we are done with dinner, but where? I know, in the kitchen while we clean up. I have to stay calm until then.' thought Kouji while eating his dessert.

'I can't believe Kouji cooked all this food by himself. It is so good. Better then ever. I will have to tell him so later. For now I will just look at him and dream of the day we are together as a couple.' thought Hikou.

'Tasuki. He is beautiful, kind, smart, and fun. He is everything I am looking for in a man. I hope someday he will be my first boyfriend. Just looking at him, I can see my life with his as one. I get to spend time with him in tennis and now I am eating dinner with him. I hope I get to do this again soon. This is such a wonderful night.' thought Chichiri.

'I don't know if I should ask him out now or wait to see if he is interested in me. I better wait and see. He is just so, so, so wonderful. I can see spending the rest of my life with him. He is nothing like any guy I have ever met. I am going to make him my first and only boyfriend if I can help it.' thought Tasuki.

"Hikou, could you give me a hand cleaning up, please?" asked Kouji. 'Please say yes or it won't work and I will have to find another plan.'

"Sure. I would love to help you clean up." said Hikou.

"Great let's get started." said Kouji. 'This is perfect. I get Hikou alone with me and I get Tasuki alone with Chichiri.'

Kouji and Hikou started cleaning up and Tasuki and Chichiri go back in to the livingroom to wait on them to them to get done with clean up.

In Livingroom

Chichiri sits down on the couch and Tasuki sits right beside him. Chichiri didn't move a muscle even though Tasuki is clearly sitting in his personal space.

Chichiri took a deep breath. 'He smells wonderful like a rose. I hope he doesn't move away anytime soon. I just feel so comfortable around him. He makes me feel at ease.'

'He hasn't moved away. I wonder if he is interested or just begin polite.' thought Tasuki.

"Tasuki. Can I ask you a question?" Chichiri turned and asked Tasuki.

"Sure. What is it?" answered Tasuki.

"Are you and Kouji together as a couple?" Chichiri asked.

'He thinks I am with Kouji!' "No. We are just roommates that have known each other for a very long time." answered Tasuki. "I am not seeing anyone right now. Neither is he but he has the biggest crush on Hikou."

Chichiri and Tasuki heard some yelling coming from the kitchen. It was happy yelling not anger ones.

"I guess Kouji finally told Hikou. It sounds like they are very happy with one another. Do you know how long I have been waiting for Kouji to ask Hikou out? Put it this way, it has been a very long time." said Tasuki.

"I hope they will be happy together." Was the only thing that Chichiri could think of to say. 'Tasuki is being so open with me. Does that mean he trust me? I wonder if he likes me.'

In Kitchen

"Will you be my boyfriend?" asked Kouji.

'He finally asked me, after all those lovely things he said to me. I thought he was just going to say that we could only be friends and nothing more. I can't believe it.' "Yes, Yes, and Yes!" yelled Hikou.

"You have made me the happiness man around to here you say yes." yelled Kouji with a big smile.

Kouji draw Hikou close and kissed him full on the lips.

In Livingroom

"Since you know I am not seeing anyone, you have to tell me if you are or not." said Tasuki.

"No. I am not seeing anyone." said Chichiri. 'Time to change the subject.' "Do you have a movie we can watch?" asked Chichiri.

"Yes. It is called Robin Hood Men in Tights. I love this move. Have you seen it?" asked Hikou.

"No. I have not seen it, but I have heard it is good." answered Chichiri.

"You are going to love it. It is so funny. Just you wait and see.' Tasuki gets up, puts the movie in, and sits back down beside Chichiri again.

The movie starts and Kouji and Hikou come in and sit together on the rest of the couch. Chichiri moves over closer to the end he is sitting on which causes Tasuki to follow him.

ABOUT MIDDLE OF THE MOVIE

Chichiri and Tasuki are laughing their butts off while Hikou and Kouji are making out.

AT THE END OF THE MOVIE

"That was great. I have not laughed that hard ever." said Chichiri.

"I told you you would like it." said Tasuki.

"What time is it, Tasuki?" asked Chichiri.

"It is about 11:30, I think. Why?" asked Tasuki.

"I need to get to bed because we have an early morning practice tomorrow, remember?" said Chichiri.

"I am glad you reminded me because I forgot." said Tasuki.

"Hey, it is time to go, Hikou." said Chichiri.

"Ok." answered Hikou.

Everyone gets up and walks to the door. Kouji opens the door.

"Bye, Hikou. I will see you tomorrow morning like you promised." said Kouji.

"See you tomorrow." said Hikou. Kouji kissed Hikou good-bye and let him out the door.

'See you tomorrow, Tasuki." said Chichiri. Chichiri started to walk out the door when Tasuki grabs one of Chichiri wrist.

"Good-night, Chichiri. I will see you at practice." Tasuki pulls Chichiri close and kisses him on the lips.

Tasuki let's go of Chichiri wrist and breaks off the kiss. Chichiri was in shock. Hikou had to grab Chichiri arm and pull him down the hall to their room.

Tasuki shuts the door with the biggest smile on his face that Kouji has ever seen.

"I think that went very well. What do you think, Tasuki?" asked Kouji.

Tasuki was in dream world. "Perfect." 'I kissed him and he kissed me back. I am in heaven.'

"Your hopeless, you know that?" said Kouji.

"Look who is talking. It took you forever to ask Hikou out." replied Tasuki.

"I know. Let's just to bed." said Kouji.

"Alright." said Tasuki.

In Chichiri's and Hikou's room

'I can't believe he kissed me. I think I am going to die.' Chichiri was in his bed trying to sleep.

'I am going out with Kouji, finally.' Hikou was in his bed dreaming of Kouji.

"Good-night, Hikou." said Chichiri.

"Night, Chichiri." replied Hikou.

Next Day

"See later, Chichiri." Hikou was out the door and down the hall before Chichiri could say bye.

Chichiri finished getting ready and left for tennis practice. He meets Tasuki at the court.

"Morning, Tasuki." said Chichiri.

"Morning. Did you have good dreams last night?" asked Tasuki.

"Yes." answered Chichiri.

"Ok people, time to start practice." said the coach.

Practice was long and hard. It was finally over and everyone was getting ready to go.

"Hey, Chichiri." said Zero.

"Yes, Zero. What can I help you with?" asked Chichiri.

Tasuki was watching Chichiri and Zero from the other side of the court. 'What does Zero think he is doing?' Tasuki thought. Tasuki began to walk over to wear they were standing.

"What I want is you." said Zero.

Chichiri was frozen in place. 'What am I suppose to do? There are so many people around and I only want Tasuki to kiss me and stuff. I wonder if Tasuki is watching this. I hope he is, so he can stop this.'

"Did you hear me, Chichiri?" With that Zero pulled Chichiri close to him and was about to kiss him when Tasuki come up behind Zero.

"What in the world do you think you are doing to Chichiri, Zero?" asked Tasuki, yelling at him.

"What does it look like I am doing?" answered Zero.

"It looks like you are going to get your butt kicked if you don't let Chichiri go right now!" yelled Tasuki. Tasuki could see that Chichiri was scared. He did not like people who would hurt his poor Chichiri.

Zero let go of Chichiri and turned to Tasuki. "There are you happy, now?" asked Zero.

"Yes. Now go away and leave Chichiri alone. Don't ever bother him again or you will have to deal with me." said Tasuki.

"Why? What is he to you?" asked Zero.

Chichiri was watching everything that was happening in front of him in shock. 'Tasuki is defending me. You go Tasuki and show him who is boss. But I wonder why he is doing it for. I know he kissed me but he didn't say we were together. I will just have to wait and see what he says.'

"Well, what is he to you, Tasuki?" asked Zero, again.

'The only thing I can think to say is…' "He is my boyfriend and if you mess with him you mess with me. Do you got it, Zero?" Tasuki said back at Zero with proud and a smile on his face.

TBC…



Author's notes: To let you know neither Tasuki nor Chichiri have had a boyfriend. They have gone out on dates but nothing major. The main reason is because they have not found someone they wanted to date for a long period of time.
