Okay, okay.so I know I haven't written a new chapter in like forever, but I
have been really busy with work and school and crap that I haven't really
had a lot of time. Here it is, chapter 4. I hope ya'll enjoy it.
Chapter Four: Ulta Matim
Sakano came into work late the next morning. The night before had been nothing short of a fairy tale. He always thought that he was destine to be alone, to wander the Earth for all eternity without someone by his side. He always thought that love was too good for him, but K proved him wrong. He smiled, they were such a weird couple...no one would ever even begin to imagine that the two of them would be compatible together, but the events the night before proved that wrong. He sighed a breath of relief, still smelling K's cologne. He always thought that he wore too much, but it was hypnotizing the night prior. He wished it never had to end, but romance was always second in Sakano's life.
"Sakano-kun." a familiar voice said, making Sakano snap out of his trance. He turned and saw his manager walking into the studio. He blushed a little, Tohma never came down to the studio, especially when they were about to rehearse, "Konnichiwa." He turned to Suuichi, Fujisaki and Hiro, "Konnichiwa."
"Ko-nni-chi-WA! Seguchi-sama!" Suuichi said, jumping up and down and waving manically, "How are you!?"
The blonde laughed a little and winked, "I'm doing wonderful. Sakano, after work today, you and I need to have a serious chat in my office. There is no excuse that you can use to miss this little meeting. I don't care if you acquire the plague and your arm falls off, please be there. Arigato."
And with that little speech, he disappeared out of the office, not noticing or caring that Sakano had frozen in place, eyes wide and body sweating. Bad Luck was completely silent, waiting for his next move. What could the manager possibly want with him that was so important that the plague or dismemberment wasn't even an option? He turned to the three band members and smiled a very weak and shaky smile. He opened him mouth and went to speak when the door blew off its hinges and K marched in.
"Okay!" he said, "Let's begin!"
He didn't even notice Sakano sitting in a chair; slumped over, shaking, wishing he had brought his Ulcer medicine and wishing even more that he had been on time that morning. He was certain that he was going to lose his job for that. He KNEW that getting involved with K was a bad idea. He was slacking in his duties as a producer and Seguchi saw that and probably decided that it would be best if a new, young person took his place. He looked over at K, who was working his magic with Bad Luck in the form of a fully loaded assault weapon. This was all his fault. Sakano frowned, thinking back to something that K had said the night before.
* * *
"Sakano." he said, snuggling up against his lover, pulling the sheets up a little to protect them from the icy cold that came in through the slightly open window, "Why are you shaking? Are you cold?"
"No, K." he said, looking over at the blonde who was so beautiful in the darkness, "I am just worried about tomorrow. I didn't get any work done and I'm going to have to walk in to work tomorrow with nothing but my deepest apologies and-"
K placed a single finger on Sakano's cold lips and smiled, "You know, It's okay to not follow the rules all the time. Sometimes, you just have to be a little naughty."
Sakano smiled, kissing his companion, "Well then, let's be naughty."
* * *
Yes, it was K's fault. Before K had come along, he was a so-so producer who was always on task and never getting sidetracked, but now-
"FUJISAKI!" he screamed, pulling his gun out of his holster, "You need to stop being such an arrogant ass and get back behind your synthesizer and play, because I am not in any mood to deal with your crap this morning!!"
"It's after noon, K," he said, cocking an eyebrow, "Maybe if you and Sakano got here on time, we wouldn't-"
"THAT'S IT!!" K screamed, cocking his gun, and pointing it directly at Fujisaki's forehead, "Like I said, I am not in the mood this after noon and frankly, Bad Luck wasn't horrible without you and-"
And this is where Sakano's expertise came in. His job mainly consisted of making sure that K didn't murder any of the Bad Luck members. It wasn't an easy job, but it was an important one.
"K!!" he screamed, pulling on the man's midsection to pull him away, "It's not worth it!!"
"YES IT IS!!! LET ME GO!!!!" He screamed, face red and obviously flustered and irritated.
"NO! I CANT LET YOU!! I-" K pushed him away and walked toward the door.
"Lunch break. When we get back, I'll be calmer and then maybe we could get some serious work done."
* * *
Tohma sat in his office watching the clock on his desk. He had been watching it for hours. Four more hours until Sakano would arrive and he would deliver his proposition for the young man. Young man, he was only three years older then Sakano. It didn't matter how old Sakano was, he still was the only person that Tohma could think of. Not only did he lust for Sakano, he thought they would make a very attractive couple and looks was what the music industry was all about. Three hours and fifty five minutes. Time was going by fast. He flipped through his phone book, scribbling a number down. She was his security that Sakano WOULD be his. It was going to be a very interesting conversation indeed.
* * *
Lunch certainly did calm K down, but it stressed Sakano out even more. Time was slipping through his fingers and he couldn't do anything to stop it. He spent his lunch in the bathroom talking to himself in the mirror, trying to figure out a good speech to deliver to Seguchi when he had to see him, but nothing came to mind. He was too uptight to think of something believable and apologetic. He was just going to have to walk into that office and BEG Seguchi not to fire him, would it work? He had no idea. He wasn't trained to do anything other then produce. That and he was a waiter when he was a teenager. He could go back to doing that...tips were good and he got free food. And he wasn't nearly as stressed out.
He walked back into the rehearsal studio exactly on time to find the group already rehearsing. He was going to ask about it, but they were doing so wonderful, that he didn't want to interrupt them. This might be the last time he was in the same room with them. Well, Suuichi, Hiro and Fujisaki. He was "living" with K, so he would see him, but probably not for long. Sakano hated being dependant on people, especially the gun happy American co-worker. It just wasn't a smart idea.
Like both Sakano and Seguchi predicted, Time flew by and within moments, the boys were going to the respective homes to their respective lovers. K was writing something in the dimly lit room, as Sakano got up to leave.
"You're not going to wait?" he said, not looking up from his writings, "How rude."
"It's not you, K..." he said, soft and meek, "Seguchi-sama needs to see me. He said that it is very important that I come right after work and not to be late. I'll come over later, I promise. Please don't be angry with me..."
K stood up and walked over to Sakano, pulling him in for a hug, "Have you been worrying about this all day?" Sakano nodded, "Baka, you should have told me. I would have reassured you. I mean, we did have an hour lunch and the boys left. That is definitely a good amount of time to do some heavy reassuring and-"
"Thank you, K," he said, resting his head against K's strong chest, "I won't be late, I promise."
He broke away and began to walk to the door as K yelled behind him, "You better not be!! Cause I am going to be waiting for you.NAKED! Oh yes, so you had better hurry home..."
K smiled as Sakano laughed a little, shutting the door behind him. He went back to his writing, not going a second without thinking of his dark haired lover. He really did love him..."
* * *
Seguchi stared at the door, not flinching as it opened. Sakano entered the near pitch black room and shut the door behind him. He bowed to Seguchi and walked closer to his desk and bowed once more. Tohma looked him up and down with his turquoise eyes and imagined what it would be like to see him without his trademark suit...vulnerable and innocent. It would be ecstasy...
"Konnichiwa, Seguchi-sama..." he said, his voice making Seguchi tremble, "Before you start, let me apologize for being so late this morning and coming in without my work. I had a very rough night and I promise on my very life that it will never happen again. I am just so full of guilt and shame that-"
"Stop, Sakano..." he said, standing from his desk and walking over to the scared boy, "I don't want your apologies. In fact, I want a lot more then apologies."
He pushed Sakano toward the couch, feeling and loving the confusion and fear that Sakano was feeling. He pushed the dark boy down on the couch, straddling him. He stroked his face, removing his glasses as he did it, "I like you Sakano..." he whispered in his ear, kissing his neck, "And good things can happen to you if you like me back..."
Sakano's eyes widened. He may be naïve, but he wasn't stupid. The manager continued to kiss him, untying his tie and unbuttoning his shirt. He began to kiss his chest and Sakano began to breath heavily and he closed his eyes, seeing K's image.
"K-sama..." he whispered as Seguchi's eyes widened and he lifted his head from Sakano's heaving chest.
"How dare you...how dare you say his name when you are with me?" Tohma said as Sakano's fear began to turn to anger.
"How could you take advantage of my respect for you and my job like that!? I'm not going to sleep with you in order to make a little extra cash and to gain a higher position. Gomen..." and he exited, leaving Seguchi sitting on the couch, smiling and laughing. In a sense, he wanted Sakano to deny him so he could make his phone call. He walked over to his desk and dialed the Los Angeles phone number.
"Hello? Judy? Yes, this is Tohma Seguchi from Nittle Grasper. Yes, it HAS been a long time...
YAY!!!! Chapter Four is done!!! I'm excited. Okay, so Judy is from the manga, I'll describe her more in the next chappie, but so you know, I didn't make her up. I hope you enjoyed my newest installment of Negotiations of Producers, Managers and Gun Wielding Americans. Hopefully I'll get off my ass and do chapter five soon. Please Review, I love hearing from you guy. Ciao.
