Usual d and w

"I thought we were going to be trapped in that dunk tank all day." Hikaru sighed in relief. "I'm starving let's grab lunch. My treat."

"You definitely owe me.. I don't know what was worse the water or watching people ogle you." Akira tugged Hikaru closer. "Or maybe it was the way you teased me every time we were in the water together. I'm definitely going to have to get you in the bath tonight."

"Get me how?" Hikaru projected innocence. "I always take baths. I love the way the water caresses me. Filling every opening until every pore swells with … completion."

Sai started laughing at the look of pure longing on Akira's face. He watched as Touya closed his eyes and tried to control the shivers that were wracking his slim pale body.

"You are going to kill me one of these days. How can you say something like that with such a sweet look on your face." Akira glared playfully at his new lover. "I never knew you could be such a tease."

"But you are only a tease if you don't plan to follow through." Hikaru said with a evil laugh. "Guess you'll have to wait to see if I really am a tease."

~"That's mean. You know darn well you will do anything he asks you to. In fact you've thought of a few things I doubt he's thought of. Why are you torturing the poor boy."~

Sai, he's been teasing me for the last month. Payback is a bitch. Isn't it? Don't worry I'll put him out of his misery soon.

~"Don't tease too much. I lost someone that way. He found another lover. He said I was to much work. He wanted someone easier to deal with."~

One day of temptation isn't going to be enough to make him leave me. He wanted me for years without hope. Do you really think that he'd leave me now that he finally has me?

~"Probably not. I'm just saying don't make a habit out of it. Gentle teasing is okay, but too much is too much."~

"Does that mean you are coming back to my house tonight?" The taller boy asked eagerly.

"Yes. If you want me to. If not I can go home to my cold lonely bed."

"I wouldn't want you to be lonely."

Laughing they headed toward the food aisle. The smell from the okanomayaki stand made their stomachs growl.

"Umm. Do I want takoyaki or okanomayaki?" Hikaru's eyes darted between the stands.

"What? No ramen?" Touya shook his head in disbelief.

"No. I'm making you buy me that for dinner." Hikaru started laughing at Touya's expression. "What are you getting?"

"Well if I'm buying dinner, I think I'll have okanomayaki. It's more expensive and you said lunch was on you." Touya laughed at Hikaru's chagrined expression. "But I'll be nice I won't order more than two… with extra toppings."

"There they are Akari. Let's casually bump into them so we can join them for lunch." Rika motioned to where the two boys were camped out on the school lawn. "I can't believe they both came. I never thought I would have the chance to meet them let alone have lunch with them."

"Do you really think we should impose. They aren't very happy with us for trapping them in the dunk tank all morning."

"They might have acted put out but the were laughing and joking around all morning." Rika patted Akari's arm reassuringly. "Besides this may be our one chance to lay the foundation for a double date. Come on don't back out on me now."

"Smile it's your greatest asset. If you aren't happy to see him he won't be happy to see you. At least that's what my mother told me." Rika pasted a sweet smile on her own lips to prove her point. The smile increased her looks from an 8 to a 10 instantly.

"Hikaru. Touya-kun. So this is where you ran off to. I should have known this is the nicest spot on campus. Hikaru usually takes a nap under this tree after gym class." Akari said with a smile.

Touya smiled up at the pretty girl. Maybe I can pump her for stories of Hikaru when they were younger. She should know all sorts of things I can tease him with. I never realized how cute she is. Thank god Hikaru is oblivious. I can tell she likes him. I bet he never even realized it. He moved closer to Hikaru. You're too late sister. He's already mine.

"Please join us. We still have almost an hour until we are due back at the booth." Touya said graciously to the girl he'd beaten. (Even if she didn't know it.)

He's so elegant. I can't believe Hikaru even knows someone like him. Let alone can call him a friend. I hope we can become friends. I miss Hikaru. If we really could start double dating I'd be so happy.

"We'd love to." Rika grabbed Akari's arm and tugged her down to the grass. "We brought homemade lunches if you would like some. Mine isn't very good but please help yourselves."

"Don't let her fool you. She's going to be a professional cook. She already has job offers from three of the most prestigious restaurants in Tokyo." Akari rolled her eyes at Rika. "Mine's the one that isn't very good."

"Akari is a pretty good cook. At least she used to be. I'd always steal her egg rolls back in middle school." Hikaru shrugged. "Why do girls offer food then tell you it's bad? I don't get it."

"Baka. It's so you won't be disappointed." Akari stuck her tongue out at Hikaru.

"Who would be disappointed in food?"

"You'll never win this battle. Hi…Shindo -kun will eat anything. Especially if you throw it in ramen." Akira shuddered. "I saw him eat watermelon ramen once. It was scary."

"It was fruit salad ramen and it was really good." Hikaru stuck his tongue out at Akira.

"That's nothing I once saw Hikaru eat…"

"Shut up I was only three."

"Worms." Akari started giggling. "I'd made a mud pie complete with worms and he ate it."

"I thought it was a real pie. I was only three." Hikaru turned to see Akira laughing so hard he had tears coming out of his eyes. "It's not that funny. Stop laughing or I'll ask Ogata-san for all your childhood misdeeds. You know he'd be more than happy to talk."

"What misdeeds? I was an angel." Touya attempted to look virtuous..

Hikaru snorted in disbelief. "Angel? I doubt it. I bet you ate your dad's go stones or something else bizarre like that."

Touya blushed crimson.

"You did didn't you? What color white or black?"

"Both I was only three. At least mine wasn't alive."

Both girls stifled laughs at the offended looks the boys were shooting each other. Their eyes met and they lost control and started giggling.

In unison the two boys turned to the girls and blushed.

Well that certainly broke the ice. I don't usually go for younger men, but for Touya Akira I'll make an exception. Rich, intelligent and a definite 10 in the looks department. Who cares if he's a couple years younger. Rika ran her eyes over Touya assessing him. I will have him. Neither of them brought a girlfriend so they are single. This is the place for couples. Better make sure though.

"I'm surprised you two didn't bring your girlfriends. The maze of love that the French club set up is amazing from what I hear. Festivals are definitely best for lovers." Rika said with a gentle smile.

"We don't have girlfriends. I don't even have any friends who are girls." Touya said straight faced. He looked at Hikaru out the side of his eye. His face was burgundy and he seemed to be choking. "Shindo knows all sorts of girls but he's not willing to share."

"I don't share well." Hikaru glared at Akira.

"I thought you said Shindo didn't have a girlfriend? He doesn't. The girls he knows are just friends."

"Then why won't he share. If he's not dating them why can't you?" Akari asked.

"He's jealous." Akira winked at Hikaru.

Hikaru snorted and turned his back on his lover, "I don't think Touya could handle a woman. If one asked him out he'd probably run screaming."

Akira leaned in and whispered in Hikaru's ear. "You'd be the one screaming. Your nasty little temper. You'd probably hurt the poor girl for trying to steal me from you."

Reluctantly Hikaru smiled. "You're probably right."

"Right about what?" Rika asked.

"Nothing." Hikaru blushed.

*************************************************************************************

"They are hiding something." Rika said to Akari. "Did you see how big a hurry they were in to excuse themselves?"

"Yeah." Akari sighed. "I told you it was hopeless. They live in a different world than us."

"No it's something else. But I've decided I definitely want to get to know Touya better. I think Shindo likes you but is to unaware to ever realize it with out your help. Look how quick he jumped to defend your cooking."

"Really?"

"Most definitely. The first thing we have to do is buy four tickets to a movie. We'll claim I won them and we thought they might like to see it with us." Rika laughed evilly. "Trust me by the time the date is over they will belong to us."

***********************************************************************************

"Akari seems really nice, but that Rika feels like a predator. I swear I saw her lick her lips when she was watching me."

"You noticed that too. I've never been around a girl who made me so nervous." Hikaru shrugged. "something tells me she's used to using her looks to get what she wants."

"Well she's not getting me. She's cute but you're cuter."

"I prefer handsome."

"I know that's why you prefer me."

"I meant I prefer to be called handsome rather than cute."

"Nope. You are definitely cute."

*************************************************************************************

"Well well what do we have here?"

Hikaru's head shot up. No Not him. Please.

"Damn." Hikaru whispered.

Waya and Isumi were standing at the counter grinning evilly.

"Where's Touya? I didn't expect to see you by your self."

Hikaru looked down into the water where Touya was relaxing.

Touya grinned up at Hikaru. Placed one finger on his lips and winked.

"You make it sound like we are joined at the hip. You know it is possible for us to be apart. Sometimes even as much as a few feet." Hikaru grinned cheekily. "I suppose Touya would be devastatingly bored without me so. Not seeing us together would be a shock. He's so fragile I hate to leave him alone."

"For more reasons than one." A soft voice whispered up.

"Are you ready to leave that uptight little prig yet." Waya cast a sultry glance Hikaru's way. "You know I can treat you right. I can make you forget everything that little boys taught you."

"You are right. He is tight. And hot. Did I forget to mention sweet." Hikaru arced backwards as if in remembered rapture. "Some firsts you never forget."

"You couldn't have. It took me years to get a kiss. How could you?"

"Very nicely." Touya said as he pulled himself up on to the bench. "I guess you just didn't have the right approach."

"Yep. I'm so oblivious. You have to walk up to me drop your pants and say you want to?"

"I did not. At least not the first time. I think that was time four."

Waya through his balls as hard as he could. One, two. Clang-clang. Sploosh. He turned and stomped off furious.

"I think we made him mad." Hikaru giggled. "Well looks like Mitani knows now."

Hikaru gestured at a stunned looking Mitani who was manning the balls. Mitani blinked twice shook his head opened and closed his mouth. Glanced after the retreating Waya. Looked back at the soaked pros and shook his head again.

"I did not just hear you lost your virginity to Touya. Even if I did I'm going to pretend I didn't. You don't say anything I won't. Shindo does this mean I have a shot with Akari? Everyone knows she's been waiting for you, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen. So you mind if I ask her out?"

"Go for it. While you are at it find someone for that predator chick." Touya answered before Hikaru could.

"Predator chick? Oh you mean Rika scary isn't she?" Mitani shrugged. "Well I guess we know who's seme."
