WOOT! Chapter Twelve. Now, I know you all want me to write about how K and
Sakano get back together, but I just got off work and it was a tough night
and I was watching the Gravitation OVA and, even though I love Gravitation
more then any anime out there, the thought of Tohma speaking English just
makes my skin crawl. So I am in a bad mood. Be warned, this isn't a good
chapter for Sakano or K. Hehehehe, please review and have fun! I know you
sick and twisted Tohma fans will. (hehehe, I love Tohma) Oh, and don't let
the title turn you away. The story is still Pg-13. This is a shonen ai
story and all good shonen ai stories need the mention of whips and chains
somewhere. (Plus the fact that Tohma is a sick, sick man...who I love
**swoon**)
Chapter Twelve: Whips And Chains
Shuichi laid in his hospital bed, the morphine beginning to wear off and the pain coming back. He could never forgive Tohma for what he did. Even if he was Fujisaki's cousin and Yuki's brother-in-law, he still took away their contract. He could deal with the fact that Seguchi had beaten him up, he had been beaten before, raped even. It was bad, but it wasn't that bad. His scars would heal. The loss of a dream was too deep a wound to mend.
He had three ribs broken. It was terribly hard for him to breathe. His nose, surprisingly enough, did not break. He thought for sure that the blow that Seguchi delivered to his face would have done much more then make his nose bleed. He had been asleep for near a week. To him, it felt as if he had just taken a light catnap. His vision was a bit blurry and his head ached, but he was happy to be alive. He needed to make a few phone calls once he got out. He needed to find the group a new producer and a new record label and a new-
"Shindou-kun," Shuichi looked up, fear striking his whole body. Tohma Seguchi walked into his dark hospital room, followed by Hiro and Sugaru. Both men looked mildly happy to be with the manager. Shuichi, on the other hand, really wasn't getting a good vibe from Tohma, "I'm so glad that you've awakened. I came here to apologize for my actions. It was completely uncalled for and I hope you can forgive me. To show how sorry I really am, I want to offer you your contract back. I know it isn't much, but it is the best I can do. Also, Sakano has returned to the city, so there will be no need to find a new producer. If you decline, I understand, but-"
Shuichi jumped out of his bed, ignoring the pain in his chest. Hiro and Sugaru looked at him with wide eyes. They had already heard Seguchi's plan to give them back their contract, but they couldn't get over the fact that Shuichi was laying in the hospital due to Tohma's brutality. Shuichi, on the other hand, had a different take on the situation and he expressed his feelings by jumping to the floor and kissing Seguchi's gloved hand.
"THANK YOU, SEGUCHI-SAMA!! I know that you were just a little angry that night over all of the stuff that happened and I appreciate the apologies. We, as a group, accept your offer and cannot wait to come to work on Monday and..." the pain finally made it's way to Shuichi's head, "Well...maybe not on Monday."
Tohma smiled and helped him up and back into bed. He was a cute kid; he would make Yuki very happy. He turned to leave and Hiro and Sugaru faced him, a bit of confusion on their faces.
"Seguchi-sama, we appreciate this generous offer, but how can we trust that you won't strip us of the label if something else happen? Or what is keeping you from hurting Shuichi even more? How can we trust you?"
"Hmmm..." Seguchi snapped his fingers, "To show how sorry I am, I will go and talk to K and apologize for being so terrible to him. With K AND Sakano working on the same wave length once again, I'm sure that Bad Luck will prosper."
And with that, he exited, a smirk melting over his face. Oh yes, Sakano and K would definitely be working on the same wave length...Sakano would work wearing nothing but a black speedo and combat boots if he so desired. He loved this, the pain coming from his pet made the deal even sweeter. Luckily for him, Sakano had no desire to go back to K. He also didn't even know that Tohma was the one who destroyed their relationship. Things were sweet. And they would get much sweeter once he went home and called Sakano to his bed.
* * *
He received the call late in the night. In fact, he had already fallen asleep. It was only going to be a short nap, due to the fact that he needed to get things ready for Monday. Even though Shuichi wouldn't be in to work, Hiro and Fujisaki still needed individual work and this would be the perfect time. K would be there, that was a given. He had NO idea how K would act around him now, especially after he found out that he was with Tohma.
"M-m-m-moshi moshi?" Sakano said, his cell phone slowly slipping out of his hands.
"What are you doing, Sakano?" Seguchi's voice was beautiful and so very frightening, "What are you doing right this second?"
Sakano was so tired, but something about the seductive way he said it make Sakano answer him. That, and the fact Bad Luck would lose their jobs if he didn't, "I'm working on the agenda for Monday, Seguchi-sama. It is very important that I-"
"Leave it," Sakano stopped talking, "Come spend the night with me, Sakano. I've waited so long and now, tonight, everything will be perfect. Come over and I will give you the pleasure that Mr. K could never provide you with."
What was Sakano supposed to tell him? No? Yeah right. He was nothing more then a slave to his Seguchi-sama and a stronger person would have put Tohma in his place, but not Sakano. Sakano didn't like to cause problems. Maybe that was the reason? Or maybe it was the fact that he truly didn't want Bad Luck to give up on their dreams? Or maybe it was the fact that he was simply lonely? Whatever the reason, Sakano was drawn to Tohma that night.
* * *
K walked into his apartment and threw his jacket on the floor next to the door. It was dark. He didn't bother to turn on a light, he was just going to go to sleep anyway. He was going to pay a visit to Tohma that night and pistol-whip him into submission, but he was tired. A stupid excuse, but it was the truth. His body wouldn't allow him to go anywhere but home. His back ached and his head was pounding. 'Maybe I'm getting old?' he thought, rubbing his forehead. No, it was simply what loneliness did to someone.
He walked towards his bedroom, dropping off his clothes as he went. He stopped at the foot of the bed, feeling the pain in his chest come back. He remembered back to when Sakano had passed out. He sat there watching the dark boy for hours, waiting for him to wake up. K was angry with him, even frustrated that he had to wait all day for him to awaken. But when Sakano opened his eyes and looked into his, he knew that something special was about to happen. And that special something did happen. K fell to his knees at the foot of the bed and tears began to roll down his cheeks. He clutched the sheets on his bed, tears turning to sobs.
How could he have been so stupid? He loved Sakano. He LOVED him. More then he ever loved Judy, more then he loved his magnum even. It wasn't just the sex, it was so much more then that. He loved the way Sakano laughed and smelt and moved and wrote and felt. He loved how he cried at sad movies and he loved how he always matched his socks. He loved how he looked when he woke from a bad night's sleep and he loved how he looked when he fell asleep after a hard day. He loved the fact that he couldn't cook and he loved the way his nasty food tasted after a busy day. He loved the way he kissed and hugged and blushed. He just loved him and now he was gone.
K hiccupped, his sobs beginning to get hysterical. There was no point to his life without this boy. He didn't care about Bad Luck or Tohma Seguchi anymore. He didn't even care if Sakano never spoke another word to him. K just wanted to be in Sakano's presence. Supposedly, Sakano had come back from his sister's house and talked to Tohma and got Bad Luck their jobs back. He never called. He never even took the time to let K know that he was back in town. Sakano had gotten over him already. His life was pointless...and that's when he saw his magnum lying on the floor amidst his clothes.
* * *
Sakano laid next to his Seguchi-sama, his face tear stained and bruising. His wrists were burned and bleeding, pulsing with unbearable pain. His whole body ached and he couldn't stop shaking. The bile continued to rise in his throat but he managed to keep it down. Time seemed to stand still for him, pain getting worse every time he moved. He looked over at Tohma, a new wave of sickness threatening his stomach. He was smiling. He was smiling while Sakano was in so much pain.
Sakano turned from him, rubbing the burns on his wrists. He has scratches up and down his arms and legs and back. His cheek was throbbing; his Seguchi-sama had hit him. His glasses would cover the black eye, he hoped. It was Monday, he would have to be up and ready for work in a few hours. Not to mention the fact that he would have to face K as well as the other members of Bad Luck. How could he possibly begin his day of stress when he couldn't even get out of bed? Tears began to spill from his bloodshot eyes. He couldn't stop crying. He had cried through the whole experience, begging his manager to stop. He never did.
Sakano rolled over on his stomach, pain erupting throughout his whole body. He buried his face in the bloodstained pillow and tried to stifle his sobs. He would rather die then wake Tohma. The pain wasn't why he was crying. The pain was the least of his problems. He trusted Tohma, even loved him at one point. How could he force him to do such terrible things? He needn't answer that question; there was no point. Tohma Seguchi did what made him happy and Sakano's suffering made him happy. Another sob escaped his throat and Seguchi stirred. Sakano froze with terror as the blonde boy's turquoise eyes fluttered open.
"Ohayo, Sakano-san," he said, making Sakano gasp a little. He couldn't go through that pain again so soon; his body wouldn't let him. Seguchi pulled him closer, pressing his body so tightly against Sakano's that he found it hard to breath. Tohma closed his eyes and sighed, loving the feeling of his new playmate, "You weren't very obedient last night, but I'll forgive you this time."
Seguchi nodded back off to sleep, Sakano still trapped in his embrace. Tear began to fall again and he closed his eyes, attempting to get a few moments of rest before the day began.
"I'm so sorry, K...I am so, so sorry..."
...Okay, so...um, yeah. Pretty chapter, isn't it? ::ducks as all the Sakano/K fans pelt her with stones and rotten tomatoes:: I'M SORRY!! Hehehe. Okay, so I REALLY had trouble writing this chapter. It was difficult to finish, I really didn't know what I wanted to happen with anyone. But yeah, everyone is at a low. What's going to happen? Is Sakano going to have to face K for the first time since their separation? Or is he going to arrive at work to the news that K had killed himself in a desperate moment? And what about Sakano and Tohma? Are their twisted love games going to continue until Sakano cannot handle it any longer and decides to end it all? Tune in next time for Chapter Thirteen!! Ciao!
