When Eiri awoke the next morning, he felt totally relaxed. He found that he was holding Shuichi like a little kid holding its' teddy bear. He thought that Shuichi looked so peaceful. But then there was a knock at the door. Eiri slowly let go off Shuichi to not wake him, grabbed a pair of underwear, and headed for the door. When he opened the door, there was a package lying on the ground, so he picked it up. The return address said N.G. Studios so he took it in side. Shuichi was still asleep so he placed it on the table and went into the bathroom to take a bath. It had been a while since he had taken a bath, since his apartment only had a shower.

As the tub filled up, he swore he heard movement in the bedroom, but thought that it was just Shuichi. He knew he was wrong when he heard Shuichi scream. He instantly opened the door to see what was wrong. He feared that Shuichi was in danger, only to be met with the maid. Eiri took a breath off relief, his heart was still pounding. "It's only the maid. You are such a baka."

Shuichi was still breathing heavily from the shock. "I know that now. Can't you tell her to come back later?"

The maid, who had no idea what they were saying, got the gist of what was going on. OS she told Eiri, in French, that she would come back around 2. Eiri nodded to her, and she left. Eiri then turned to Shuichi and smiled. Shuichi didn't know why he was smiling, but figured it out when he heard the water running.

"Care to join me?" Eiri asked a seductive look in his eyes. Shuichi nodded, got out of bed, and followed Eiri into the bathroom. Eiri added bubble bath stuff to the water and took his boxers back off. Shuichi was smiling the whole time. As Eiri got in to the water he said, "Well? Are going to get in or not?" Shuichi beamed and got in. He sat down facing Eire, only to be grabbed and place in Eiri's lap facing away from him. When the shock of what Eiri did was over, Shuichi leaned back against Eiri and closed his eyes. He felt like the luckiest man in the world. "A package came while you were asleep. It's from N.G., so I presume that it is Tohma."

"I wonder what he sent to us?" Shuichi asked in a confused tone.

"Don't know. Forget about it for right now, I just want to sit here with you and take a bath." Eiri closed his eyes as he said the last part.

Shuichi smiled and said "Oh, Eiri."

They were in the bath for about an hour. When they got out, Eiri ordered room service as Shuichi opened the package. It was two magazines with a note. The note read:

"Dear Shuichi,

How's the trip. I hope your having fun. I wish I could be there with you. It's lonely without you here. Well, not real lonely. I mean I still have Suguru, Mr. Bear, and everyone else, but I miss you. Can't wait to you get back so I can here all about it. I hope I get a souvenir. Mr. Bear wants one to. About the magazines, it's out. The full story about Suguru and I is out. The same reporters that interviewed you, interviewed us. Apparently the fans love the idea of us being together. I am so glad. I knew they would be fine with this. Can't wait to you get back. See ya soon.

Love,

Ryuichi"

"What does it say?" asked Eiri who was getting really curious from seeing the smile on Shuichi's face.

"It's from Ryuichi. He says that the reporters who interviewed me, interviewed them and got their story. Apparently the fans are fine with the idea of them being together." Shuichi made sure that he didn't tell Eiri about Ryuichi's comment about missing him. He didn't want Eiri to get jealous.

Eiri just shrugged and grabbed one of the magazines and opened it up. "Breakfast will be here in about 20 minutes." Shuichi smiled and grabbed the other magazine. On the cover of both were a picture of Ryuichi and Suguru together. Both pictures made Shuichi smile. He was glad that people accepted them like they did him.
