"You can't be serious?! You expect me to go on in Ryuuichi's place? I can't do that!" Shuichi shouted at the producers of Music Parade.
Having shown up at the television studio to provide moral support for their friend, best friends Hiroshi and Shuichi of Bad Luck hadn't expected that Mr. K and Touma would want them to step in for Ryuuichi if he didn't make it in time.
"It's not a big deal, Shindou-san." Hiro said with a smile.
"Not a big deal? Hiro, how can you say that? I can't do this!" Shuichi exclaimed.
More than a year had passed since the release of Bad Luck's first CD and Touma had hoped that time would have matured the redheaded singer. His childish behavior didn't seem to bother his best friend Hiro though, their bond stronger than ever due to their romantic attachment. Slinging his guitar over his shoulder, Hiro smiled as he put his arm around Shuichi's waist.
"Come on, Shindou-san. We can do this, no problem." Hiro said.
Staring into his trusted friend's eyes, Shuichi nodded in agreement as they took the stage during a commercial break. There were a few murmurs through the crowd from various studio audience members, surprised to see two of the members of Bad Luck preparing to perform.
The teen girls in the audience that were fans of both Nittle Grasper and Bad Luck swooned, seeing the two best friends together onstage. They whispered amongst themselves watching the two bandmates' eyes meet with a smile between them.
"And we're back! We're sorry to have to announce that Mr. Ryuuichi Sakuma of Nittle Grasper will not be able to join us tonight, but as a favor to all our Music Parade fans, we're proud to welcome Hiroshi Nakano and Shuichi Shindou of Bad Luck with their rendition of Nittle Grasper's White Butterflies." the announcer said to loud applause.
Even backstage, the sound of the audience's applause was noticeable to the dark haired teen trying his best to dodge onlookers on his motorcycle. Ryuuichi had insisted that Tatsuha drive all the way through the television studio lot to the set of Music Parade, startling pedestrians and staff members inside the building itself.
Ryuuichi didn't even notice how surprised people were to see a running motorcycle indoors because his attention was riveted by the sound of Shuichi's voice. Tatsuha couldn't help but notice it either, the strains of Hiro's melodious guitar adding the perfect flavor to Shuichi's softly sang lyrics.
"Shuichi...he's singing my song...is he onstage?" Ryuuichi wondered aloud.
The heavy steel motorcycle barged through a barricaded door just above the stage, the two men staring down at the ones that had taken Ryuuichi's place onstage.
"Oh wow...I've never heard anyone sing my song so perfectly before." Ryuuichi sighed happily.
Even Tatsuha had to admit that as usual, his brother's ex-lover had risen to the occassion, his face betraying all the emotions of the lyrics as he made the song his own and everyone else's. As happy as Ryuuichi seemed to be to hear his song sang so well, he was quckly stripping off his damp bunny costume, clad only in his leather pants and an unbuttoned black shirt handed to him by one of the show's assistants.
"What are you doing, Ryuuichi?" he asked him.
The older man smiled at his nodyguard before launching himself to Tatsuha's shock off the side of the railing to the stage below. He had timed his appearance perfectly during the song's guitar solo, smiling at his friend who had done such incredible justice to his song.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Ryuuichi Sakuma!" Shucihi shouted, as he thrust the microphone towards his idol.
Hiro's eyes widened with surprise as Ryuuichi smiled, inviting him to finish the song together. This allowed Tatsuha to lose himself completely in the song, their voices blending perfectly like it was meant to be. Tatsuha felt like he was right beside his idol as the two vocalists ended the song, soaking up their loud applause.
Returning to Ryuuichi's side as he finally mad ehis way backstage, Tatsuha found that it felt very strange being in the company of Shuichi and Hiro, given the young singer's history with his brother. Mr. K and Touma were the first to greet them.
"Nice to see you again, Ryuuichi. You're Yuki Eiri's brother, right?" Mr. K asked.
"He's pratically family, K, you should know that by now. Thanks for getting here so quickly. It wasn't intentional that Shindou-san was able to fill your spot, Ryuuichi, although your duet...that was just inspired." Touma said.
"I was honored that the producers of the show allowed me to sing your most memorable ballad, Ryuuichi." Shuichi said.
"There was no way I could refuse to sing alongside you, Shindou-san. I'm the one that's honored." Ryuuichi told him.
Hiro smiled at Tatsuha. 'Tatsuha! Hey, we haven't seen you since that whole incident with Ayaka. How is your brother?" he asked.
"Moody as always, absorbed in his writing. I left the temple to spend the summer with him when Touma offered me the job of Ryuuichi's bodyguard for the next couple months." Tatsuha said.
"Lucky!" Shuichi exclaimed. He grabbe dthe teens' arm to pull him aside so he could whisper in his ear. "Wow. Tatsuha. This must be like a dream come true for you. I jnow how much you're in love with Ryuuichi." he giggled.
"Your relationship with Hiro doesn't so bumpy either." Tatsuha teased him.
Shucihi sighed dreamily. "Your brother will always have a place in my heart, but I have no regrets over choosing to be with my best friend. I just hope that you can see me as a friend, Tatsuha." Shuichi said.
Tatsuha smiled. "Of course! You and I are kindred spirits after all, right?" he asked him.
Tatsuha's eyes widened as Ryuuichi launched himself into Shuichi's arms. "Oh Shindou-san, your voice just sounded amazing out there! We just have to duet more often! I'll be sure to set it up so we have lots of duets during our fall tour, once the negotations are finalized." Ryuuichi said.
Shuichi laughed. "I'd like that too, Ryuuichi." he told him.
Ryuuichi reached out with one arm to bring Tatsuha closer to him. "What are you doing still wearing that costume? Get changed and let's enjoy the rest of the night!" Ryuuichi said.
Tatsuha was grateful to change out of the heavy purple bear costume back into his comfortable white vee neck cotton shirt and faded black jeans underneath. The brisk air conditioning of the green room cooled his heated body, and he slumped down into a nearby overstuffed chair. He kept his eye on Ryuuichi from a distance, allowing him to relax and watch the festivities around him.
Shuichi and Ryuuichi were quite the pair. The two singers genuinely loved the spotlight and were more than happy to pose for pictures together. The small room was simply bustling with photographers and journalists from all kinds of magazines and television stations.
He couldn't help but smile at some young fans who had won a local radio contest to go backstage at Music Parade, who just swooned over Hiro, Shuichi and Ryuuichi. They even seemed swarmed around Mr. K and Touma, Ryuuichi's fellow bandmate and Bad Luck's infamously insane manager.
No one took much notice of him, but he didn't mind. He was just glad that Touma was allowing him some slack on his bodyguard duties, since he had delievered his idol safe and sound to the studio. The contest winners left after a short time, and Hiro, Shuichi and Ryuuichi took up residence on the short couch beside him as the producers of Music Parade came in to congratulate their guests.
Hiro and Shuichi looked postively blissful sitting close together on the couch, Ryuuichi observing as much as he was. It was something that he hadn't known they had in common, and one of the few things he hadn't already known about his idol.
"Mr. Seguchi, your idea to have Shindou-san and Sakuma-san share the stage tonight was brillant! As masterful as always! Although we realize that the two young members of Bad Luck are not quite old enough to drink, we at Music Parade would like to present to all of you a bottle of our finest champagne! Thank you for a memorable evening!" one of the producers said.
"Here, here!" they all agreed.
Laughter and scattered applause filled the room as Touma took it upon himself to pop the cork on the producers' gift, Mr. K being the first to catch the rush of champagne that flowed from the bottle's violent opening. He poured Touma a glass, a handful of glasses for the producers and their guests, and lastly a more than generous glass for Ryuuichi.
"If I didn't know any better, I'd swear you were trying to get me drunk tonight...I guess that's okay though, since no one's going to take adavantage of me except for Kumagoro and Tatsuha." Ryuuichi laughed, squeezing his toy rabbit affectionately.
"Sounds like wishful thinking to me." Shuichi teased him.
Ryuuichi stared wide eyed at the redheaded singer for a moment, startled only momentarily by the subtle change in Shuichi's demeanor. The two singers had created a strong bond over the last year, one fostered out of respect anf hero worship on both sides. There was no doubt in his mind who had inspired the petite redhead to become more outspoken and confident with his idol.
That inspiration was more than evident in the way Hiro and Shuichi expressed their affection for each other in their own ways, allowign them the freedom to be themselves and remain close at the same time.Tatsuha had felt that connection with Ryuuichi when they had kissed at the park, and wondered if Ryuuichi had felt it too.
Shaking his head free of those thoughts, Tatsuha blew off his momentary lapse of reason, blaming his friends' Hiro and Shuichi for that. He had gotten caught in the whirlwind of their heady roamnce, nearly as intoxicated on it as Ryuuichi was getting on his glass of champagne. The dark haired singer drank his drink slowly, savoring it's rich flavor, letting the bubbles get into his head.
Mr. K, having been Ryuuichi's manager and clsoest confidente of the last couple years, showed his ever present concern as he knelt down in front of Ryuuichi. 'Are you okay, Sakuma-san? Do you need to go back to the hotel?" he asked him.
"Yes please, if you don't mind. I'd like Tatsuha to come with me so I don't hurt myself or something." he giggled under his breath.
"Already way ahead of you. I'm afraid Ryuuichi-san is going to have to call it an early night. Hiroshi, Shuichi, I'm sure we'll be in touch soon." Touma told them.
Hiro smiled, throwing his arm around the back of the couch, the movement pushing Shuichi to fall against his side. Shuichi smiled and curled up close to his best friend, exhausted form the day's events. Hiro smiled up at Touma.
"No problem. Be sure you take good care of him, Tatsuha." Hiro said.
Tatsuha blushed in spite of himself, which Touma barely noticed as he motioned for the teen to escort Ryuuichi back to the hotel. 'Leave your motorcycle here for tonight. I'll see to it that it's delevered to the hotel forst thing tomorrow morning." Touma said.
"Yes sir, Touma." Tatsuha replied, as he rested his hand on the small of Ryuuichi's back to lead him to their waiting car.
He could tel that Touma and Mr. K were being overly cautious over Ryuuichi's slightly tipsy condition, even though Ryuuichi seemed able to walk fine on his own and was completely coherent. The only difference in the singer was the heat that eminated from his body, making Tatsuha even more aware of him than ever. Ryuuichi himself seemed lost in singing various choruses of Nittle Grasper songs and pulling lint off of Kumagoro's ears.
As the pair stepped outside into the brisk evening air, Tatsuha saw Reynolds waiting for them with his car door open, closing it behind his two clients as they stepped inside. Once again Ryuuichi closed the privacy blind between them, slumping against Tatsuha's side with a sigh. Tatsuha yawned, letting the gentle motion of the moving car lull them into a shirt nap before arriving at the hotel.
Once again Ryuuichi charged towards the elevators, Tatsuha barely catching up before the doors closed behind them. Tatsuha watched his idol out of curiousity as he seemed to change moods, one of thoughtful seriousness. It was very rare to see Ryuuichi in this way, only when he was onstage or in one of his more serious videos.
Tatsuha loved all the sides of Ryuuichi's personality, his serious side, his playful side and his sensual side, the side that never failed to arouse the teen to painful lengths. That was the look on Ryuuichi's face now, one of longing and desire as he attempted to capture Tatsuah's attention with his eyes.
"Alone in an elevator again...that can't be a coincedence. It's like fate wants me to indulge in my fantasy. What do you think, Tatsuha?" he asked the teen.
Tatsuha swallowed hard as he met the singer's smoldering gaze with his own.
"I'm not sure what to think, to tell you the truth." he responded nervously.
Ryuuichi smiled at him, moving within inches of his bodyguard. "That kiss we shared today told me something different." he said.
Tatsuha reached up and nervously brushed a stray hair out of his eyes. "Yes, and I tried to apolgize for that too." he said.
'You didn't have to do that. It's true that it's been a long time since I've kissed someone, but the wait was definitely worth it. I mean, you do have feelings for me, right? Touma told me so." Ryuuichi said.
'Well, yes. I've been one of your biggest fans since I was thirteen. I was honored when Touma asked me to work for you." Tatsuha said.
"Do your feelings dwell any deeper than just being a fan? Have you ever felt stronger feelings towards me?" Ryuuichi asked.
Tatsuha had to bite his lip from moaning out loud at his idol's provacative question. He had very rarely seen Ryuuichi in such a highly aroused state and he knew it was partly to blame on the champagne.
"Ryuuichi..." he whispered, as his idol moved closer to him, his hands moving to the curve of the teen's backside.
Tatsuha felt his skin flush, his body heat increase as he stared deep into Ryuuichi's eyes, seeing confusion and need there. He closed his eyes as he felt Ryuuichi's breath against his face before the older man claimed his lips in a deep, open mouth sensual kiss.
Tatsuah moaned helplessly as he returned Ryuuichi's affection, the heat of his idol's lithe form unmistakeable as he pressed his body agaisnt the teen's taller frame. He slowly wound his arms around ryuuichi's waist, pulling him closer and answering the singer's unasked questions by aggressively stroking his tongue against his.
Kissing Ryuuichi was everything Tatsuah had expected it would be. He'd never in his wildest dreams could have ever imagined that he would be pressed up against a moving elevator wall, being kissed senseless by the man he had always held closest to his heart.
Ryuuichi's petite body curved perfectly into his and the feeling was beyong exquisite. Ryuuichi's mouth and tongue were heavenly soft, warm and wet against his won, and he was captivated by the sensation of Ryuuichi's hard arousal rocking against his own.
This was the same man he'd lusted over on hsi DVD's at home, the one he'd watched throw his head back in ectasy as Touma fell to his knees before him to satisfy his dark haired lover. It was that Ryuuichi that was giving himself completely to the teen, causing Tatsuha's eyes to snap open as Ryuuchi breathed heavily into his ear, his hand pressed against the evidence of his arousal.
"I think this is our floor." Ryuuichi whispered.
Stepping off the elevator, Tatsuah led them quietly back to Ryuuichi's hotel room, closing the door behind them. There was no mistaking Ryuuichi's form in the moonlit room as he sighed loudly, easing off hsi borrowed top to leave his chest wonderfully bare. He laid down on the bed next to Tatsuha, who greeted him with a smile.
The singer's arms rose to wind themselves around Tatsuha's neck as he bent down to kiss him tenderly, allowing his idol to deepen the kiss furthur. This kiss was slightly different, a little tentative, like Ryuuichi wanted to be intimate with his young fan but was frightened for some unknown reason. This by itself was enough to make Tatsuha pause.
"Ryuuichi, I'm sorry. I can't do this." he told him regretfully.
Ryuuichi's eyes flew open. "What?" he asked.
Tatsuha smiled. "As much as I adore you, I can't be with you this way, not while you're under the influence. It wouldn't be right. I have too much respect for you than that." he said.
Ryuuichi sighed with regret and a little relief. "Yes, I understand completely. Thank you." he yawned.
Tatsuha smiled again, brushing a kiss against Ryuuichi's neck, collasping on the bed beside him, already asleep before his head hit the pillow.
"You can't be serious?! You expect me to go on in Ryuuichi's place? I can't do that!" Shuichi shouted at the producers of Music Parade.
Having shown up at the television studio to provide moral support for their friend, best friends Hiroshi and Shuichi of Bad Luck hadn't expected that Mr. K and Touma would want them to step in for Ryuuichi if he didn't make it in time.

This kiss was slightly different, a little tentative, like Ryuuichi wanted to be intimate with his young fan but was frightened for some unknown reason. This by itself was enough to make Tatsuha pause.
"Ryuuichi, I'm sorry. I can't do this." he told him regretfully.
Ryuuichi's eyes flew open. "What?" he asked.
Tatsuha smiled. "As much as I adore you, I can't be with you this way, not while you're under the influence. It wouldn't be right. I have too much respect for you than that." he said.
Ryuuichi sighed with regret and a little relief. "Yes, I understand completely. Thank you." he yawned.
Tatsuha smiled again, brushing a kiss against Ryuuichi's neck, collasping on the bed beside him, already asleep before his head hit the pillow.
