Myca: Gackt in leather underwear? (giggles) Hmm…Would I want to see a picture of that…well…IT IS GACKT!! :DDDDDDDD
YaoiKitty: No, I didn't read that thread about his deodorant…my friends and I are just freaks…'specially Melly…she's the Gackt Genius in our group. And Kei should love Platinum Egoiste…I mean, it's the Essence of Gackt…er, Sho…, come ON!!! :DD
And a helpful hint to you all: Don't think of lemon scenes while trying to fall asleep…it doesn't help…really. It just keeps you awake longer……
Chapter Four: Finally Home Again
Kei was determined to stay at the hospital while Sho was still in the ICU, but Kurisutina's sister's (who turned out to be named Hana) shift started at eight and she was yet again bugging him. Besides that, the hourly visits by Kurisutina were too much for him to take. Kei left that night before Kurisutina's shift started and took off in the car to go home and relax. He thought about leaving a card with the phone number to their house, but he thought it may encourage Kurisutina to call him (plus it may look like he wanted to take her on a date, which he found thoroughly disgusting to think about.), so he didn't.
You don't know what she means to me
She's a heart that beats close to me
And gettin' back to the way I feel
When Kurisutina came into Sho's room that night, she was startled to find Sho, and only Sho, in the room watching TV (Kei had missed the fact that there was a TV in the room right above the door.) with a blank expression on his face. "Hey Sho," she said smiling.
"If you're wondering where Kei is, he went home," Sho said, not taking his vacant gaze off of the TV screen.
"That's what I figured." she replied, sighing quietly.
"And he assumes that when I'm ready to be taken home that the computer has the phone number so you can call him to come and pick me up." Sho said lamely, still staring at the TV, which was stopped on a channel that was airing a Three Stooges episode (and Curly was shouting something about a fish looking like Moe.).
"I'll make sure that we have it somewhere in the computer," Kurisutina replied awkwardly.
Her honest word is my only real thing
When she comes to me then I feel fine
And I'm not afraid but so gratified
"If you don't, I'm sure that I know my own home phone number…" Sho said, staring at her, which made her feel uncomfortable under his penetrating gaze. His cerulean eyes felt as though they were searching her soul…
"I would assume so," Kurisutina replied, beginning to back out of the room. "All of the tests have been run and we've checked your numbers and everything seems to be fine. You just had a bit of a shock is what we can think of. You should be able to leave around eight tomorrow morning."
"Great," Sho replied, still staring at her. He smiled brightly. "That means no more of the crappy food…no offense to you."
Emerald eyes is a mystery
Starin' through to the heart of me
Find, emerald eyes in the night
"None taken," she replied, smiling back, captivated by Sho's handsome smile. "I'll be back in a little bit to give you whatever you need."
"Alright," Sho replied, still smiling as she closed the door. "Thank god this smile can get me whatever I want…" he said to himself, turning his attention back to the TV, which was now on a channel airing the World Series of Poker Main Event of that year. "Oooh!! Gambling!!" Sho said, setting the controller down to watch……
Gleamin' shiny and bright
As if covered with silver
She's still a mystery to me
Back at the house, Kei grabbed the cordless phone and set it on the coffee table next to the couch. He also grabbed his pillow from their room and a blanket from the laundry area, throwing it on the couch. He grabbed the controller and turned on the TV quietly, laying down on the couch to maybe get some sleep for once………
A few hours later, most likely around two in the morning, the phone rang, waking Kei up. "Hm?" he said into the portable, still trying to wake up, wondering who the hell could be calling at two in the morning.
"Kei?" a voice asked.
"Yeah?"
"It's Sho."
"Sho?" Kei said, waking up suddenly. "Why are you calling me?"
"Well, I just realized I have a phone in my room and I know that Kurisutina's planning on calling you so I wanna just give you a heads up notice, okay?"
"Sure…" Kei replied.
The way she sails away slow
Makes your day to day life easy
Emerald eyes is a mystery
Silence, then:
"Were you just sleeping?" Sho asked.
"Yes."
"Where at?"
"On the couch." Kei moaned as he stretched. "And it killed my back."
"But why didn't you sleep in the bed?"
"I wanted to watch TV."
"Kei, that's the lamest excuse you've ever said!!!"
She's my place of serenity
And gettin' back to the way I feel
Her honest word is my only real thing
"Okay, fine…It would have felt too weird for you not to be in it with me, sleeping peacefully."
Sho sniffed. "Aw. That's so sweet!" he mocked.
"You shut up!!" Kei said. "It's downright decent of me to even live in the same house as you!!"
"Sorry, sorry." Sho replied. "Just wanted to give you a heads up, that's all…"
"Thanks," Kei said truthfully. "I need it. I can't stand that woman!"
"You're welcome." Sho replied, sighing. "She's developing a crush on you, I can tell. She was devastated when she came into my room and you weren't there."
"I can imagine," Kei replied, leaning back on the pillows. "How'd you get rid of her?"
Only an honest word, maybe a sky report
Could be a weather bird it was so close to me
Emerald eyes is a mystery
She's my place of serenity
"My dazzling smile, of course!!" Sho replied, making Kei laugh.
"How well I can picture that smile in my head right now!" Kei said, smiling warmly. "You've enthralled many with that smile of yours…those perfect, white teeth, the petal soft lips, the—"
"Stop, stop!" Sho said, blushing furiously, although Kei couldn't see.
"You're blushing, aren't you?" Kei asked, raising an eyebrow.
"…No I'm not…" Sho said quickly.
"Then what are you doing?" There was silence until Kei broke it, laughing. "I knew it!!" Sho laughed quietly, making sure no one could hear him but Kei.
Somethin' in you brought out somethin' in me, that I've never been since
That part of me that was only for you,
That kind of romance
"I love you, Kei."
"I love you too, Sho." Kei said, smiling even though Sho couldn't see him.
"'Bye."
"Goodbye." He hung up. As soon as he had, the phone rang again.
"What?!" He spat into the phone, angry that his happiness of talking to Sho was only fleeting.
"Kei?" the voice asked.
"Oh. Yes. Hi Kurisutina." Kei said apologetically. "Sorry, you just woke me up."
"Sorry about that, but it's about Sho." She replied.
"What about him? Is it good news?" he asked, fake fear in his voice, since he knew Sho was alright, he had just been talking to him on the phone.
Comes only once, that kind of love
That kind of fever dance
That you love because you become someone else in an instant
"Yes it is," Kurisutina replied. Kei fake sighed in relief. "He will be released at eight this morning."
"Oh…" Kei said sadly, thinking of the sun.
"But Sho told me something about you not being able to pick him up…"
"Yes, I can't. I have an appointment to go to," Kei said quickly, making up another lie and making a mental note to thank Sho for the wonderful excuse he made up for him.
"Well, if you don't mind, I can bring him home for you," Kurisutina said. "My shift ends then…is that okay?"
"Yes, that's perfect, thank you!!" Kei said appreciatively.
Say you will, say you will give me one more chance
At least give me time to change your mind
"Oh, it's no trouble at all!" she replied, grinning. "So he'll be home when you get back from your appointment, okay?"
"Okay!" Kei said happily. "Thanks a lot!! That helps me out a ton!"
"You're welcome! Goodbye."
"'Bye!" Kei hung up the phone happily, glad that he didn't have to risk his life going out in the sun just to pick Sho up. He imagined what it would be like for him to come into the hospital on fire…He laid back down and curled up under the blanket, falling asleep happily, and hoping his back wouldn't be dead when he woke up………
That always seems to heal the wounds, if I can
Get you to dance
Sho was dropped off eagerly by Kurisutina around eight-ten that morning. He waved goodbye to her happily as she sped away in her car. As he opened the door, Sho smiled, eager to be back. As he closed the door behind him, locking it out of habit, he stared at the couch, where Kei was curled up, a blanket at the base of the couch. Sho, eager to lunge at Kei, who was beginning to stir, quickly threw all the paperwork aside and walked over to the couch, eagerly stripping off his shirt. Kei opened his eyes.
"Holy Shi—SHO!!" Kei yelled, sitting up straight. "I know you're eager, but didn't you just get home?!"
"Yes, but does that matter?" he asked, crawling up onto the couch and onto Kei's lap, wrapping his arms around Kei's neck. "We're together…"
Somethin' in you put a hold on my heart
It's hard to believe now
"What about your nightmares?" Kei asked reproachfully.
"It's all in the past…for now…" Sho said, leaning forward to kiss Kei's cheek lightly. Somehow he managed to catch Kei off-guard and he was able to lift of Kei's shirt and move on to his own pants.
"Sho." Kei said, catching Sho's serious side. He hadn't planned on saying anything, so he just crashed his mouth into Sho's, pushing himself on top of Sho, where he always was. Sho stopped trying to pull off his pants. Instead, he threw all of his weight onto Kei's chest, switching their positions.
Here in the place that will never be dark
I remember that place...
Sho was suddenly pushed upwards and back onto the fluffy pillows. Kei was quickly towering over him, pinning down his shoulders. "Sho…not yet." He whispered quietly. "I want to know exactly what they told you."
"I told you all I know!!" Sho said, pushing Kei off of him.
"No, you haven't, because you just said that your nightmares are in the past for now." Kei replied, staring at Sho.
"Alright, alright." Sho said irritably. "Don't throw a fit!!"
"I'm not throwing a fit!" Kei said, leaning forward, coming close to Sho. "I care about you and I want you to be able to stand me!"
That kind of touch, electricity of love
That certain kind of grace
"I can stand you! Weren't we about to—" Sho started, but was silenced by a look from Kei.
"You can only stand me when you don't think about your dreams, which is what we need you to do!!" Kei replied, furious that Sho couldn't realize how much he cared about him. "Now," he brushed his lips past Sho's. "Tell me what they told you."
Sho sighed, trying to recall what Kurisutina had said. "They said…they were looking into it, and that they'd call when they found something or someone that might—that might help—help me…" Sho finally managed to say through yawns.
"You're tired, Sho-chan," Kei whispered to him, brushing a strand of hair out of Sho's face. "You need sleep."
That you love because you become someone else in an instant
"Kei…I—I can't—I don't—" Sho began, staring wide-eyed into Kei's eyes, fear flashing furiously within the cerulean depths.
"I understand Sho." Kei replied, wrapping his arms around Sho comfortingly. "It's alright. Dreams aren't real…even I've been afraid to fall asleep…When I was reliving when I was down at the beach with Luka." Kei sighed, reaching down behind Sho's back to retrieve Sho's shirt. Somehow, he managed to slip it on over Sho's head.
"Thanks." Sho mumbled sleepily. Kei nodded, pulling his own shirt over his head. He quickly grabbed the blanket at the foot of the couch and set it next to him. Sho automatically leaned into Kei's lap, resting his head; Kei involuntarily wrapped his arms comfortingly around Sho, gently laying the blanket over the both of them. Sho stretched out, laying down on the couch.
Say you will, say you will give me one more chance
At least give me time to change your mind
Kei leaned down and kissed Sho gently on the forehead. "Good…day…?" Kei whispered, wondering if it would be 'goodnight' or 'good day' since it was eight in the morning. Sho smiled, reached up slowly, gently grabbing a hold of Kei's and pulling him down, kissing him tenderly on the lips.
"I love you, Kei-chan…" Sho mumbled sleepily. A wave of affection swept over Kei hearing Sho say 'Kei-chan'.
"I love you too, Sho-chan," Kei whispered as Sho closed his eyes, beginning to doze off into sleep. "I love you more than you know…you've given me a reason to live…" As Kei gazed upon Sho's face, he saw Sho smile.
"I know," Sho whispered, barely audible.
They both dozed off into a world of bliss, each one dreaming about the other………………
That always seems to heal the wounds, if I can
Get you to dance…………………
And Hana is not the Sho's daughter Hana…I just felt like naming her Hana…And listening to Maguro over and over and over doesn't help my muses…maybe if I play it at two times the normal speed……
And…I dunno why I put in the 3 Stooges…maybe because this calendar is right next to the computer…and the quote on it is: 'During an ice-fishing expedition, Curly exclaims: "It's a midget. It's a whale. Hey! This fish looks like Moe!"' It's really odd…
And I am in a total Phantom of the Opera mood. I went and saw the movie last night (Tuesday Night) with Kristal and we both spazzed. It was great!! One of the greatest movies I've seen all year…
And WSOP is great. It's always on…which reminds me…it's on at noon. I only have an hour more to write…And I have no idea what year in Mallepa this is taking place, so I don't know what WSOP it is…and I'm just going to answer it now: YES. I AM MAKING MALLEPA HAVE A WORLD SERIES OF POKER, SO NYAAAAAAAH.
And Mellysa, sorry if this is a bit like your fic…in a way, it is…but aren't all lemon fics related in some way? (grins evilly) You know what I mean……Heh heh heh.
Kristal and I realized that in most Moon Child fics, Yi-Che isn't included…we always say because no one likes her (because she split up Kei and Sho…sort of) but whatever…think about it, it's true……
And if you saw Meet the Parents and liked (or loved) it, go see Meet the Fockers…it's not as funny…most of the jokes aren't that great…but still go see it…
Lyrics are Emerald Eyes by Fleetwood Mac and Say You Will by Fleetwood Mac. I kind of didn't want to use Emerald Eyes, because it says 'she' a lot in it…but oh well…
I got the "You're blushing aren't you?" part from Seinfeld…where Kramer's making his special chili and Jerry asks him: "You're not wearing a shirt, are you?" K: "…YesIam." J: "What color?" K: "……" xD I love that episode!!
I. Was. Holding. A. bottle. Of. Platinum. Egoiste. Today!!! And my mom almost let me buy the perfume, but they didn't have it…
And I watched Moon Child with my mom and dad…my dad kept coming in at random parts…for example:
Dad: "Is that a guy dressed up as a girl?"
Mom: "No. I think that's a guy..."
Me: "Which one? The guy with the braids or the guy with the short hair?"
Dad: The guy with the braids.
Me: ...That's a guy...
Dad: (stares at TV) Really doesn't look like it...
Me: Well, it is.
Kristal: Because Ti didn't know, not everything is related to lust. XD A word for 'not lusty' is.. "serious". xD Thank you for your time. Oh and fans of Ti's fic, I'll be posting two fics soon, so you should all love me and go read them. Okaybye.
Response: Kris. Y'know that's not true during Bio!! Heh, Heh, Heh…
And I edited the first two chapters of Dakishimete for those of you who didn't know…And now I must go pack up my backpack. Stupid school tomorrow…I'll still write and such…especially during composition…
