Chapter 16 : Round and round it goesThe noise was deafening and Yuki was already considering walking straight back out again.
'Just why am I here again ?'
Glancing to his left he let out a defeated sigh. Shuichi was hanging onto his arm bouncing excited up and down as they finally got to enter Tokyo Disney Land. If Yuki hated something it was to wait in seemingly endless queues. The possibility to be discovered by any of his fans was generally high and he so was not out on being hunted down by crazy females today. No, today was another day of being special since his lover finally had succumbed to his natural charms just like it was supposed to be. Yuki had even trouble keeping this stupid little grin from his face which was threatening to creep onto his lips. Shuichi knew him at least that good by now that it would have definitely worried the smaller man who now proceeded to drag him over to a ferris wheel.
"Yuki. Common let's go onto that one. Like this we'll have a great view all over the park and can get a look on what to try out."
Yuki frowned at the white and very high construction. Sure, it looked stable and all but he wasn't really a fan of those slow turning things. Put him on a roller coaster anytime but he really didn't like Ferris wheels. He always got the feeling to fall each time the thing stopped and the small cabin swung in the wind.
'Christ, get a grip Eiri. It's just a stupid ferris wheel.'
So he followed Shuichi and they got a place in one of the colored cabins which was brought up slowly into the air.
'Shit, is that high.'
Yuki glanced down towards earth with an unsettling feeling in his stomach. Shuichi didn't seem to realize his unhappiness about being so high up and merrily began swinging the cabin.
'What the fuck?' Yuki gripped the railings and burst out. "Are you crazy? Stop that baka."
Shuichi looked up startled but upon seeing Yuki's rather colorless face he stopped and settled beside his 'rediscovered' love.
"What is it, Yuki? You're not-"
"Don't say it. And no I'm not. I just don't like it." Yuki ground out between clenched teeth.
Shuichi frowned. "Why didn't you say anything? We could have done something different."
Yuki shook his head. "It's okay. Just…just don't move so much."
Shuichi shrugged and leaned back beside Yuki falling silent hanging after his own thoughts. During their ride home yesterday evening they had talked a lot which had pleased Shuichi immensly because Yuki didn't strike him as overly talkative. The blonde had told him again how they met, the story with Ayaka and about their first trip to Kyoto. Yuki had promised him to show him his appartment one day so maybe Shuichi would remember something and in turn he had asked Yuki to come see him on his concert on Sunday. Still even if he now had an imagination how his life had been before the accident, he knew something important was still missing. Something concerning Yuki and himself but he was afraid to ask the blonde and didn't really wanted to ask his friends in case it was a sensitive subject. The blonde could be touchy at times and Shuichi really didn't want to hurt Yuki. It seemed like a shadow always loomed behind those amber eyes. Even though it seemed less obvious now than before he knew about their relationship. The revelation yesterday had them both brought a big step closer though Shuichi wished he would finally remember everything. Beside him Yuki moved. Shuichi turned and met Yuki's eyes.
"It's actually Tatsuha's falut." The blonde said seriously.
Shuichi blinked. "What?"
Yuki's eyes bore into Shuichi's blue ones willing him to understand. Suddenly Shuichi knew what the older man was refering to. "Oh, you being… I mean your dislike against the Ferris wheel."
Yuki nodded sourly.
"So what did your brother do?" Yuki scowled this time and Shuichi ran through all the possibilities Yuki's younger brother could have to his lover to get him to freak out and almost admit that he was scared of something.
"I almost fell out of a cabin like this one when I was eight."
Shuichi's eyes got big. "What? How? I mean for heaven's sake what did you do?" Seeing the cross look on Yuki's face he corrected himself quickly. "I mean what did he do?" He blushed but Yuki ignored it.
"Nonsense of course. We were both alone in the thing since Mika was pissed for whatever reason at us." He looked in thought for a second before continuing. "She left to search for our parents so we both got onto the wheel instead of waiting in front of it like we were supposed to. We had no problems getting on the thing. I mean it's not like they really control it like with the coasters anyway."
Shuichi nodded. He always had trouble to get on one when he had been younger.
"Anyway we were all the way up when Tatsuha started to swing the cabin just like you did. Just then I spotted mother and father and I lent over the railing to call them though just in that moment the wheel began moving again and with our cabin having so much power I lost my grib and fell forward and almost stumbled over the rope which was the actual door back then. It was one of the old wheels you know. Anyway if Tatsuha hadn't grabbed me I've probably would've been dead."
Yuki seemed to consider something but then he shrugged and looked at Shuichi who looked baffled. 'Hm, obviously didn't occur to him that his brother safed him as well.' Instead he said. "And you still got onto the wheel with me?" Shuichi asked smiling.
Yuki shrugged looking suddenly uncomfortable. "Well, knowing you'd like it I-" He didn't got to speak to the end as he suddenly was being glomped by Shu.
"You're so kind, Yuki."
The blonde decided not to comment on it and just ruffled affectionately the pink hair. Glancing downwards again Yuki opened his eyes in surprise but narrowed them concentrating harder.
"Is something wrong Yuki?" Shuichi asked him following his kind of view. The singer was still sitting partly on Yuki's lap. But Yuki shook his head. "No. Just something I thought I saw." Giving the smaller man a quick kiss on the nose which had Shuichi blushing furiously they both more or less enjoyed the rest of the ride. A few minutes later they got of the cabin and strolled farther into the park.
"So what are we going to do next? Can we try out one of those roller coasters over there?" Shuichi pointed at the shrilly colored rides in the distance. Yuki shrugged. "Sure. I have nothing against those." 'At least one has a security belt there.'
Both strode off towards the roller coaster. After getting in line Yuki felt eyes on him and he turned around to scan the masses.
"What is it Yuki?" Shuichi asked bouncing exited beside him.
Yuki shook his head. "I just thought for moment there is someone behind us watching me."
Shuichi laughed. "I guess you're just getting paranoid from all those certain crazy females who want a piece of you." The singer smirked at him while grabbing the blonde's hand as if to make sure that Yuki wouldn't be suddenly snatched away.
Yuki rolled his eyes but squeezed his lovers hand before they got on the rollercoaster. After several rides both were dizzy and Yuki got them something to drink. Suddenly Shuichi's eyes lit up.
"Yuki! I have an idea! Common." Before Yuki could say anything else he had dragged his lover over to a photo cubicle where one could make photo stickers with an automat. Seeing Yuki's frown Shuichi stopped.
"Yuki?" He pulled on the authors sleeve to get his attention.
Looking down on the smaller man beside him Yuki said. "It's nothing. Let's do it." Though secretly he was confused. Shuichi did more and more things he or they had done before. Was it because he knew now the truth about them? Would he remember soon? Suddenly he felt the prickling at the back of his head again and whirled around.
'Nothing. Maybe I'm really getting paranoid.' Yuki shook his head and followed Shuichi inside the cubicle to get the pictures done. A minute later Shuichi proudly hold up their photos with portrayed Shuichi smiling brightly and Yuki with his lip curling upwards in a half smile. Somehow it all felt like a déjà vu to Yuki. The two young man walked then over the fair trying out this and that and getting themselves more or less sick on the rides until it was getting late and Shuichi pulled them to a stop in front of a ghost house.
"Hey Yuki let's try this ride." The singer shouted exited.
The blonde lifted an eyebrow at this but refrained from saying anything about it being something for kids. So Yuki let himself getting dragged into a car and off they went into a huge ghost mouth who snapped shut behind them. And then everything went dark.
**************
Whaaa, I don't like how this chapter turned out. I just didn't had the time this week. *sigh* The rest of it comes next week. It would have been too much to write otherwise and I wouldn't have had anything to post. Sorry! P.S. I don't like Ferris Wheel's either. I always think those cabins drop to earth each moment they move a bit too much. I prefer roller coasters.
