"What is wrong with you today, Ryuuichi? I've never seen you so distracted before." Noriko said to him.
The dark haired vocalist turned on her. "Get off my back, will you? I only got distracted for a minute. Were any of the tracks I laid down affected just now, Touma?" he asked.
Touma smiled. "No. Your singing was as steller as always, Ryuuichi. you never cease to amaze me." he said.
Noriko rolled her eyes. "You two need to get a room. You make me sick. I'm going to take fifteen before I heave." she told them.
The two men sighed as she left, Ryuuichi sitting down, pulling off his headphones as Touma ran back the already recorded tracks they had set down that day.
"You should have brought Tatsuha with you to the session. He would've enjoyed being the first to hear our newest songs." Touma said.
Ryuuichi rubbed his temples in frustration. "Please...don't mention him, okay?" Ryuuichi asked.
"I'm sorry. I guess that's a touchy subject. I did as you asked me too though, adding that little extra to his check from me." Touma said.
Ryuuichi sighed. "I didn't actually think you would do that. That must have been like a slap in the face to him." Ryuuichi said regretfully.
"He's young...he'll get over it. He'll just get a hardened heart like Eiri- san did. It's no big deal." Touma said.
Ryuuichi narrowed his eyes at him. "And I wish you wouldn't mention Eiri-san around me either! You know, I was thinking of rerecording our song White Butterflies for this CD. What do you think?" he asked.
Touma smiled. "I think that would be a great idea. I remember how special that song was for both of us." Touma sighed.
Ryuuchi shook his head. "You know, I don't believe that for a second. It never meant as much to you as it did to me. I wrote that song specially because you were so busy persuing Eiri-san and being persuied by Mika-san that you completely forgot what you and I shared." Ryuuichi said.
Touma stared at his badmate and closest friend for the longest time before speaking again. "This is the reason you pushed Tatsuha away? Because you've never been able to make peace with our past, Ryuuichi? that's not fair to me, to you, to Tatsuha, or anyone else for that matter." Touma said.
Ryuuichi turned on him. "You're the one to talk about not being fair! I realize that it's many years now since then, but you have to understand, Touma...you were the first person I ever loved and allowed close to me, and you pushed me completely out of your life the day you disbanded Nittle Grasper." Ryuuichi said.
"No. I understand completely, more than you realize. Time could never heal the wounds that I caused you the day I said goodbye. I never stopped loving you in my heart, Ryuuichi. You were my best friend long before Eiri-san ever was and you will always be a part of me. I never intended to cause you any pain." Touma told him.
Ryuuichi threw himself into his best friend's arms, the two men sharing a warm embrace that had been many years coming. Touma's eyes were tender and soft towards his badmate as they parted, laughing softly between their stifled tears.
"Please Ryuuichi, don't let our failed romance come between what you and Tatsuha could have together. How do you feel about him really?" Touma asked.
"I know I don't want to lose him...I love him." Ryuuichi admitted.
"Then let's call this a day. Go and find him before it's too late." he told him.
Ryuuichi embraced Touma again out of his gratitude as he left to return to the hotel.
