Chapter Two

Author's Notes: Wha hoo chapter two! So happy! READ AND REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shuichi walked towards the studio before he was stopped by someone jumping on him. He looked up to notice it was Ryuichi with Kumagoro on top of his head.

"HI SHUICHI!," Ryuichi said in his normal hyper-active voice.

"Hi," replied Shuichi.

"Where are you going?" asked Ryuichi as he jumped off Shuichi and was infront of him.

Shuichi got up and wiped the dirt off his pants. "I am going to the studio."

"...Uh..I thought yall got a day off today," said Ryuichi and tilted his head.

Shuichi was silent for a second as he thought back to yesturday. Mr. Sakano's words: "Since yall did such a great job on the song, I thought it would be nice to give yall a day off tommorow." rang in his mind and then he looked at Ryuichi. "Oh I guess we do, I forgot. Gomen."

Ryuichi smiled. "How about we spend the day together, eh? It will be fun!"

"I don't know...I would go back and see Yuki some more..." said Shuichi before Ryuichi got up in his face and gave him big, innocent eyes.

"Awe, come on Shuichi, you never spend time with me," he said with tears now.

"Well I guess it couldn't hurt. Okay then sure," said Shuichi with a smile which made Ryuichi dance around with Kumagoro.

XxXxXx

After lunch at a cafe, Shuichi and Ryuichi walked around trying to think of something else to do.

"What do you want to do now, Shuichi?" asked Ryuichi as he played with Kumagoro.

"I don't really know," answered Shuichi.

"HEY! Lets go to the karaoke place. It will be fun!" said Ryuichi happily. Shuichi was silent for a moment before he was lead by Ryuichi to the karaoke bar.

Both singers went up to the stage where people could sing and impress the audience that listened to them. They both looked at each other before looking back at the stage.

"Do you want to go first, Sakuma-san?" asked Shuichi.

"No, you can," answered Ryuichi with a smile. Shuichi nodded and got up on the stage. He went over to the karaoke machine and searched for one of his songs. Finding the song he liked, he grabbed the microphone and turned it on. The song started and he smiled.

kimi ni aitai yukitai Ikareteru BRAKE wa tomaranai

mou dare ga tometemo

jyoushiki no FENSU ni buchi ataru tabi ni

tsuyokunaru kara

kabe o nori koete kasoku suru I CAN'T STOP LOVIN' YOU

As he sang the song he noticed Ryuichi dancing around to the song. A crowd started to surround the stage.

kokoro kara suki da to ii kieru dare ka ni

nandemo deaeru darou?

Isshun no jinsei kimochi o nuritsubusu

hima wa nai hazuda ze

He started to think about Yuki as the song rang through his ears. This song was dedicated to him, and how much he loved him.

kimi no soba ni yukitai itoshisa no ACCEL fumi nagara

AH ude o nobashite

tachiirikunshi no mirai demo kitto suberikomun da

kimi to me o mitsume tsugerunda I CAN'T STOP LOVIN' YOU

Ending the song, he got an applause from the audience that had gathered. He did a short bow before he motioned Ryuichi to have his turn. Picking out his song, Ryuichi got the microphone and handed Kumagoro to Shuichi. Shuichi jumped off stage and took his attention to Ryuichi. Ryuichi gave Shuichi the victory sign before closing his eyes and opening them again as the song started.

nijuuhachi-ji no yoru wo kiritoru

mado wo toshimetara hajimaru

ichido shikaketara tokenai wana wo

ma ni awanai PROTECTION

tatoeba kimi wo kizutsuketai

jirorama no tojikomete

tataitemita tte sakendetemo

kikoenai sa PREDILECTION

Shuichi stared in awe as the singer that had changed his life sang. He noticed that Ryuichi was looking right into his eyes and their was something different on those eyes. Shuichi noticed that those eyes did not show happiness in them, but showed sadness and loneliness instead.

iki mo dekinai

joukyou shita de wa

sugureta ai wo musaboru

Then there was something else that was different. But this was something Shuichi never thought he would see from his God singer. He noticed tears rolling down Ryuichi's cheeks as he continued to look into Shuichi's eyes.

can't get enough kotoba yori mo motto

don't let me down tashika ni misete hoshii

one more night kasuka ni kizutsuita

kimi wo mitsumeru me sono saki ni....

As the song ended, Ryuchi dropped to his knees in tears. Shuichi rushed to his side.

"Sakuma-san, what's wrong," asked Shuichi in concern. Ryuichi looked up at him before hugging him tightly and crying on his shoulder.

Author's Notes: Yea a cliff-hanger I guess. Poor little Sakuma-san. Oh yea the songs that were in the chapter were: Break Through and Predilection. Thought you might want to know and be patient for next chapter.
