Being thirteen gives a child a whole new outlook on life. When he and/or she reaches that age he and/or she is able to see PG-13 movies by themselves, will become more interested in the opposite sex and will experiment with new and unusual things. Thirteen year old Suguru Fujisaki was no exception well, in more things than others. The whole movie thing is a give-in, but slowly after entering 8th grade he became aware of the same sex. Sugru never classified himself as gay or bisexual he just didn't find girls that interesting in fact he thought that they were a tad to into themselves. (A/N: I have nothing against girls these are just most of the girls that I went to junior high with.) There was one girl though that he found to be a hoot to hang out with and her name was Reji she was tall (well taller that Suguru) hot and if needed very very threatening. The two quickly became friends the year before at a record release party for Nittle Grasper.She had a hard time believing that he was the keyboardist for a band of thirty year olds and he had a hard time believing that she was the American Rep for N-G Records (something that Tohma's inheritance bought for everyone).

Being thirteen also meant that the child is supposed to try new and different things. Suguru was in a rock band so he couldn't play around with the music thing. He didn't dare to play around with sex in fears of catching something like his mother had but he did dye his hair black, started embracing the wiccan practices and dressing in all black. While onstage his attire differed greatly compared to Ryuichi and Noriko they had sexy playful stage wear but not Suguru he stood behind his keyboard in black fishnet, leather, spiked jewelry and severe black makeup.

One thing that never changed with him was that he always visited his mother everyday at times bringing Reji along who Keiko thought would make the perfect girlfriend for her son but was greatly disappointed when Reiji told everyone that she was a lesbian.

Two days before Suguru's fourteenth birthday he got a startling phone call.

"Hello?"

"Hi is this Suguru Fujusaki?"

"Yes" Suguru slowly said not knowing where this call was going.

"Oh good my name is Ma-kun, and I have been looking everywhere for you. How is everything?"

Who is this guy and why is he acting as if he knows me? "I'm fine sir how are you?"

"Don't be so formal I know your mother."

"Go on."

About 15 minutes later Suguru was hanging up the phone as K was walking by. "Who were you talking to?"

"Does it matter?" Suguru said quietly.

"Yeah cause if it was a toll call I would hope that I had taught you to dial it collect." He smiled brandishing his gun that he was polishing.

"Don't worry he called me."

"Who?"

Suguru's eyes wandered around the spacious room. He bit his lip trying to staunch back tears.

"My father's cousin."

Never knowing who your father is, never an easy thing to deal with. Knowing that a person your mother knew and trusted hurt her that was and then she had you is even harder. 14 years and Suguru had finally dealt with his problems with not having a real father he didn't care then who his real father was all he needed to know was that he had a mother who loved him no matter what and that he had Mr. K and Sakano to care for him. Now though after fourteen years Suguru's father's cousin calls to say hi and wish him a happy birthday. Ma-kun didn't even tell him who his father was not by name atleast but he did find out that he was a musician too. A lead singer to a local band.

For his birthday Suguru had a huge bash and invited mostly everyone he knew including Ma-kun, he didn't know who is father was so he couldn't invite him but Ma-kun was family and maybe could tell him more about his father.

"Happy Birthday Sugie!" Reiji smiled giving the grinning birthday boy a kiss on the cheek. He blushed noticing his mother's eyes smiling at him. She had been getting worst for the past few years and Suguru knew that it could be anytime now, so he tried to make everyday wonderful for her.

"Hey everybody!" Reiji yelled standing on the picnic table. "I want you to meet someone very special to me. Her name is Yuki, well that's her last name but I think it's cute." She smiled dragging the blonde girl up onto the table and gave her a big hug. Yuki's face reddened and silently waved her hand in greeting. "Happy Birthday Suguru. I got you this I hope you like it I didn't really have a lot of money so I had to make it." Suguru opened the small box taking out a necklace with a star pendant. "You made this?" he questioned marveling at the craftsmanship of the metal star with a blue stone. "Yeah." Yuki blushed. "It's a replica of the Albion's Pentacle (1), I saw it in a magazine and thought that you may like it."

"Thanks" he smiled putting on the necklace then giving the girl a huge hug. "I love it!"

"Okay we're next!" called a loud booming voice from the doorway. K was standing wearing the most outrageous outfit. Sakano stood with the video camera facing Suguru's surprised face. "I know Sugie a tad over the top isn't he this year I told him that a pink bunny rabbit was too childish." Suguru smiled. The camera moved over to Keiko who's eyes were full of life at the moment, "Kuma-chan! K, you baka you are dressed up as Ryuichi's stuffed rabbit. My son is not a child." Everyone laughed.

"Suguru! We as in me and Saki's wallet would like you to introduce you to your brand new, internet ready laptop."

Everyone's eyes bugged. "What?" both Suguru and his mother blurted out while K had one of his goofy smiles Sakano fainted at the sudden outburst. Ma-kun until then hadn't even allowed anybody to know that he was there but when Sakano fainted his instinct from his nights at the hospital took over. He rushed out to pick Saki up and place in out of the bright sunlight under the tree, next to Keiko.

Keiko's eyes met Ma-kun's. "Ma-kun what are you doing here?" she glared. She did not look happy one little bit. Suguru noticed at once from his mother's harsh tone. "Momma I invited him he's my father's cousin he's family. I wanted him here he's the only link to my father that I have. I have so many unanswered questions."

"Sugie?" her eyes were watery he hated seeing her like this he never wanted her upset at him it just wasn't right but this meant a lot to him. "Sugie for 14 years you never cared about who your father was-"

"Yes I did mother. I always have I hate being a bastard child. I hated going over to my friends houses and they either had dads there or knew who they were at least. I never knew that. I hate both of you for doing this to me. I know you know who my father is I know that YOU know also Ma-kun" the name spilling from his lips as if it was poison and ready to kill. "I can never forgive you from keeping that from me. Ma-kun y has it taken so long for you to get in touch with me. You can't tell me that it has taken you 14 years to track down someone who has been living in the same town his entire life and someone who was in a world famous band. Damnit you guys I am 14 years old I have a right to know these things.! Thank you everyone for your presents they are wonderful now please leave me alone!" Suguru pounded up the stair past Kuma-K, not even noticing the calls from Reiji and Yuki.

A/N: Wrote this baby in a hurry cause it's Thursday night 9:20 pm I am late. I'll maybe only write one chapter this week. Work, school, drama and friend problems are really taking up my time, note to self don't continue to be friends with an ex that you still have feelings towards especially if said ex starts dating his female friend of four years two months before he breaks up with you it's just messy. Alright I am done complaining about my life right now so who is Sugie's daddy remember it may not be someone tied to Ma-kun in the anime or manga since this is an AU. Yuki is not Eiri Yuki but is Yuki-sensei's little sister/brother. She is a girl in this one. Reiji and Yuki are like 16 years old. Right now yes two years older than Sugie. That's all right now hope you like this chappy cause I think that it is an interesting story line.

1. the Albion's Pentacle long worn by Wiccans later adopted by the Christians as the emblem of Sir Gawain, the English pentacle. (Found at if you wish to see exactly what it looks like.)
