Touya blinked twice, thinking. This would have been only the third time Yusuke had asked him, the first being when he'd woken those days after the fact when Yusuke had rescued him, the day they'd first gotten to Yusuke's house, and now. And it had been so long since the first two times. Yusuke had been so patient about it. "I'm ready now," he sighed, pressing himself closer, wanting to have as much contact with Yusuke as possible. "Swear you won't try to do anything about it. Don't try to take revenge, don't get angry, don't do anything. I used to love him once, too," Touya added.

Yusuke considered a moment. "Ok. I swear, I won't try to do anything about this bas-" he stopped when he saw Touya cringe at the insult he was about to use, and changed it with a sigh, "I won't do anything about thisperson who did this to you."

Touya, still slightly nervous, asked, "What do you swear by?"

Yusuke thought a moment. "I swear it on my life, I swear it on the fate of our band, I swear it by everything I hold dear. Which includes you," he said, gently thumbing Touya's nose.

Touya grinned very slightly, reassured, and took a shaky breath before starting. "All right. Reisho and Bakken had cornered me by that cave you found me. They were going to beat, they always do, and they had only just begun when Jin showed up to stop them. He'd never been in time before and I never told him who it was, but I think he knew and was just waiting for proof. But that doesn't matter, when he showed up, he was more drunk than I'd ever seen him before, and he'd gotten quite drunk several times before hand.

"He stumbled over and scared off Reisho and Bakken; both of them know he can beat them when he's angry enough, and he was very angry then, and drunk. He said. He said, 'Are you two playing with my toy?'" Touya stopped a moment, holding back a sob carefully.

"Reisho had pressed me against the cave wall and had been trying to choke me, and he let me go when Jin came at him. I started to slide down, but Jin grabbed me and pulled me up and kissed me, hard. He shoved his tongue down my throat and I couldn't breathe, Reisho had held me so long and,-" the sob broke, and Yusuke tried to console Touya, murmuring softly and gently patting and rubbing his back.

Touya continued, "Reisho and Bakken left and then. He began taking off my shirts, and I begged him to stop, but he kept going. He. He grabbed me. There. And he squeezed harder and harder till I came, then he grabbed me hands and first he just made me squeeze him as he did me, then he shoved me down on my knees. He thrust his entire length down my throat and I almost choked. He made me; I sucked him till he came, and then he just flew off." Touya sobbed again, even harder, the fact that Jin had simply left him like that having the greatest affect of all on his fragile psyche. "Before he left though, he said. 'That was fun, little one. Have to try that again, huh?' Then he was gone."

Touya shuddered in Yusuke's arms, and Yusuke's eyes glinted in rage as he spoke softly to Touya. "Shhh, don't worry I'll never let him hurt you, never again, I swear. Not him, not Bakken, not Reisho, no one!"
