So here's the next chapter. No Eiri-Tohma in here, no Noiko-Sakano either, but loads of Suguru-Tatsuha. I've decided that is this is their fic. Okay, so that's one of those things I say I decided, when they have actually been obvious for a few chapters already. But anyway.

"All right! Ryu-chan is finished na no da!"

"Finally!"

"So, what are we gonna do, Ryu?"

Ryuichi beamed at his boyfriend, completely ignoring Suguru's remark.

"Well, the hole we burned yesterday is still there da! We lower someone in there with a rope no da, and he snatches the stuff, and we pull him back up na no da! Isn't that smart of Ryu-chan?"

"Yeah!"

"…That took you two hours to think up?"

Ryuichi ignored him again, and put on a thoughtful face. "But, who is to go down?"

"Well, seeing how we have to lower them and pull them back up, I'd say: the lightest person."

"I agree, Tatsuha-kun!"

Tatsuha nodded. "Yeah, I'm pretty smart, aren't I?"

"Don't let it get to your head…"

"Aww, Su-kun, you're in a really bad mood today, aren't you?"

"I'm just worried about K-san and Nakano-san!"

"We all are, but snapping at us won't help them one bit. Now, who's the lightest of us all?"

"Fujisaki-kun's the smallest, so he's probably the lightest too!"

"What, I have to go into Tohma's office!"

Everyone nodded. Ryuichi pulled out a length of rope. Suguru paled.

"But... But isn't Shindou-kun's sister lighter than me? She's shorter!"

"yeah, but boobs weigh a lot."

Shuichi hit him over the head. "Hey, that's my little sister we're talking about here! Don't talk about her like that! By the way, where is she anyway? Still in that shrine?"

"I think I saw her in the computer room, chatting. Probably found some yaoi community on the internet."

"Oh, right..."

"Tats-chan has got a point though; Maiko-chan is probably heavier than Fu-chan na no da!"

Everyone (minus Suguru, of course) nodded in approval again. Suguru sighed.

"Ready, Fujisaki-kun?"

"No!"

"Try not to get killed, okay, Su-kun?"

"I swear, if I die down there, I'll come back to haunt you guys!"

"What? We can't hear you, talk a little louder!"

Suguru twitched. Everyone was hiding out in the hallway, well away from where Seguchi might get them. He got a freaky vision of his cousin breathing fire, growing leathery wings and coming up to get them like some mad dragon.

"C'mon, Fu-chan! Kuma says there's not that much to be afraid off na no da! Besides, you'll have a first-aid kit and he promised he'd patch you up if you got ripped apart no da!"

"Oh, that's a big reinsurance!"

Tasuha peeked around the corner. He seemed genuinely concerned. "Just keep your calm, and you'll be fine, Su-kun."

Suguru nodded. He took a deep breath and peeked through the hole.

Silence fell for a few moments.

"Oh my god! Bad image, bad image! Ban it, Suguru, ban it, just forget about it! Oh, I did so not want to see that!"

"Su-kun? What is it?"

"S… Seguchi san and Yuki-san being all lovey-dovey on his desk and… and… Ewwww!"

"Gross, office sex…"

"But if they're awake, you can't sneak in na no da…"

After suppressing some vomiting urges, he regained his speech. "I… I think they were asleep…"

"Then what are you waiting for no da!"

"Hey, let him recover a bit! Would you want to go down there when you had to go past those two!"

Ryuichi looked at Tatsuha innocently. "What's the problem when they're just lying there asleep? They won't hurt him."

"Besides, they've got the same bits as he does, right? Unless Fujisaki-kun or Seguchi-san is actually a girl, of course…"

Tatsuha sighed and rolled his eyes. "Nevermind."

"Okay, I'm going down! Hold the rope carefully, I don't want to fall!"

"Got it!"

Suguru slowly let his legs dangle through the hole, grimacing at the sight beneath him. How was he going to get to the ground without stepping on them anyway? They were right beneath him!

"Tickle attack na no da!"

"Ack! Ryu! Hahaha! Stop! Hahaha! I-the rope!"

He was so going to kill Sakuma Ryuichi if he managed to get out of this alive.

"Ack! Su-kun, brace yourself!"

Suguru braced himself and somehow managed to land on the ground instead of on the two lovers. Well, I guess that solves the problem of getting on the ground without waking them…

He began quickly scanning through the desk, searching for any kind of band aid and bandage he could find. He stuffed the bag he'd brought with him as full as physically possible (why did Tohma have so many bandages anyway?) And tugged the rope, as assign he wanted to be pulled back up again.

Only to have it fall down.

"I'm so sorry, Su-kun! Ryu-chan and Shuichi-kun let go and I couldn't hold you by myself and the rope slipped!"

Suguru sighed. Yes, Ryuichi was as good as dead. "I'll try the door instead!"

"Okay! Good luck!"

Suguru tried the door. It was locked. He cursed.

"Is it locked, Su-kun?"

"Yeah! Now how am I going to get out of here, huh? Wait for them to wake up!"

Silence fell as Suguru fumed. Why did things like this always happen to him!

…

Well, that wasn't true. He had been having a good time with Tatsuha while the others had been fighting for their lives in the hell pit of a basement.

He sighed. Great, now he couldn't even feel sorry for himself.

"Hey, Su-kun, wouldn't Seguchi have the keys somewhere? And I think Aniki has a key to the office too! Seguchi gave it to him!"

"Really? Where!"

"With his other keys, I'd say."

"Well where are those?"

"Not a clue. In his clothes, maybe? Or…" He snickered. "On his body somewhere…?"

"Not funny. I can't search this entire office, you know! That desk on his own already has too many drawers for me to search before they wake up!"

He heard Tatsuha laugh again. "No, seriously, Su-kun, I think they're in his clothes somewhere."

"Fine, I'll start with those, then."

He sighed and began searching the clothes, scattered about the room, for the illusive keys. What the hell had they been doing! Half of them were covered in blood, all were ripped apart, and some were stained with white gooey substance, and Suguru didn't even want to think about what it was.

Then, to his astonishment, he found a bunch of keys in something that could once have been a pair of pants.

He looked at them in shock for a bit, then dashed off to the door to see if maybe one of them fit. And, believe it or not, the third one fit! He turned it, and the door opened! Oh my god! Luck was with him (more or less)! He dashed out into the hallway and up the stairs.

"Tastuha-kun! I found them, and they fit!"

"Su-kun! You're safe!"

The two fell into each others' arms and started crying.

"Wow, I thought only I did that…"

"Ryu-chan thinks Suguru doesn't do it that often either, seeing how he's doing it wrong no na da…"

Shuichi nodded in agreement. "But at lest he got the bandages."

"Yup! Let's go treat Hiro-kun and K-san no da!"

"Okay! Hey, Tatsuha-kun, Fujisaki-kun, c'mon! We're going back to the studio to treat Hiro and K!"

Suguru quickly let go of his boyfriend, blushing, and nodded.

"Hey, Su-kun?"

"Yeah?"

"I was really worried for a moment there… Don't do stuff like that again!"

"Now you're blaming me? It was Sakuma-san's idea, and it was he who started tickling Shuichi-kun!"

Tatsuha slipped an arm around him. "Yeah, I know, and I'm not blaming you at all!"

"By the way, Tatsuha-kun…You actually scolded Sakuma-san back there when I was so shocked by the sight below me…But isn't he like your god? I never thought you'd say something bad about him, never mind openly scold him like that…"

"Yeah, I surprised myself, too. But I guess… I guess it's okay that he's with Shuichi-kun and I'm with you. I mean, I would have never been able to stand his childish shit all day long anyway…"

Suguru smiled at him. Tatsuha smiled back. Shuichi cooed at them.

"There, don't they look much better now no da?"

Shuichi nodded in awe. "You really know what you're doing!"

"Ryu-chan is just doing what Kuma tells him to, Shu!"

"Oh, I see…But still."

Admittedly, Hiro and K looked much better now that all the blood and dirt was washed off them, and they were decently dressed again. They were currently still passed out, and Ryuichi was stitching up a slash on K's leg. It was the final stitch, and everyone was looking forward to going home for a nice, long bath, though Suguru was having a dilemma about whether to take a bath together with Tatsuha, or separately. The electricity had luckily come back on a few minutes ago and the building was back to normal again.

"Hey, who's going to take them home, by the way? They can't stay here; Seguchi-san might get them."

Silence fell.

"I think you should take them, Sakuma-san, since you, erm, Kumaguro, knows what to do if something goes wrong."

"He has a point there, Ryu."

"Okay, then we'll take them home na no da!"

"Awww, c'mon, Su-kun! I promise I won't rape you!"

"I took it you weren't going to do that from the start…"

Tatsuha grinned at him. "Don't be so prude! It'll be just like cuddling on the couch!"

"Somehow, I don't think so…Besides, even on the couch, where we were fully clothed, you couldn't keep your hands of me."

Tatsuha had nothing to say to that, so instead, he pouted, and tried to look as adorable as he could. "Awwww, please? Pretty please? You know you'll like it!"

That's the whole problem, Suguru thought to himself. I would like it, but I'd also feel like it was wrong to do stuff like that…

"Su-kun? Helloooo, you there!"

"Huh? Oh, yeah, I'm here…"

Suguru then noticed they were in the bathroom and Tatsuha was naked. OMG, he himself was naked as well. Suguru turned beet red.

"What the heck! Tatsuha!"

"What?" Tatsuha looked at him innocently. "No response is a 'yes', right or not?"

"I know that's the saying, but I don't think it goes in this case…"

"Su-kun… if I promise I won't do anything you don't want to, or feel you aren't ready to yet, will you come? I just wanna be with you…"

Tatsuha gave him the most sweet, longing look he had (he'd spent hours practising it in from of the mirror) and Suguru gave in all right. He nearly turned to goo!

"Okay, then…"

"Yay!"

Tatsuha pulled his little boyfriend into the tub and into his lap, and started washing his back, humming a tune from bad luck's latest album. Suguru soon found himself completely turned to goo after all, under that skilled touch. Even so, he managed to hold his ground, and Tatsuha didn't get any that night, no matter how longing and sweet he looked.

Reviews: I've decided not to post a new chapter before I get at least one review.

Rebelyell59: well, thank you for reviewing not much else to say, is there?
