Touya shifted uncomfortably. "It wasn't something I did, so much as, was done to me." Yusuke, Botan, and even Hiei looked concerned. Yusuke scrawled on his pad 'You can turn this one down. You don't have to answer.' Touya sighed and shook his head. "No, I might as well tell them, especially since we have this opportunity." Unconsciously, Touya took Yusuke's hand in his, and Yusuke covered Touya's hand with his other hand.
The seriousness in Touya and Yusuke's manner proved to the others that this, whatever it was, was important. Even Atsuko, three sheets to the wind as it was, quieted and slowed her drinking. "Touya, you want me to tell it? I know basically what happened, if not much detail." Hiei asked, a rare consideration.
Touya shook his head. "I should." Touya was quiet a moment, as though deciding where to start, before he spoke again, "What's worse than kissing Kuwabara? There's probably not much." Kuwabara huffed slightly in disdain. "But I know one thing: being raped by the man you once considered your best, and only, friend." The girls and Kurama gasped softly, as Touya continued.
"It was just after the dark Tournament, and Reisho and Bakken were beating on me. I let them, because Reisho was the leader, and who was I to defy him? They never hurt me too badly anyway." Touya and Yusuke's grasp to one another's hands tightened; Reisho had almost choked him, there was no 'never hurt too badly' about it.
"Jin showed up to stop them, but he was incredibly drunk. He'd been drunk before, but never so much. I suppose he'd just been so upset about losing. He pushed them away and kissed me. But since he was drunk, I didn't want him… I had loved him too, at the time, but he was so drunk. So I tried to shove him away, but it only got him mad. He slapped me… He'd never hurt me before, at all. The slap didn't hurt much, it was just… the fact it happened." Touya's free hand went to the cheek with Jin's hand still marked in red on it. It was as though it was happening all over again, even though it had been so long.
"Reisho and Bakken fled soon after, because Jin's winds started to frenzy around us. Then he… he took me. He left me, smiling and laughing like he always was. All he said after that was… 'That was fun, little one. Have to try that again, huh?' Then he just left me, lying naked in front of that cave Yusuke found me by." Touya's eyes were heated with tears that were trapped, and Yusuke tried his best to console his lover. By that point, Touya had been gently pulled into Yusuke's lap, and Yusuke stroked his hair and face softly.
The girls were crying, and Kurama, Kuwabara, and Hiei seemed deeply intent, and concerned. Keiko spoke, "Touya, I'm so sorry I asked that! I'm so sorry it happened! Gomen Touya!"
Touya shook his head, saying, "I'm not finished."
