by imanut

Surprise, surprise! I've got another chapter out! I just wanted to really quickly thank Kiki-sama for e-mailing me the site! Loved it, loved it!


Chapter 14
The day had gone by pretty fast. Tohma and Shuichi, after getting back to N-G, went their separate ways: the vocalist to his recording session, the keyboardist to his office.

It was in his office that he received a call concerning him and a certain pink-haired singer.

"You want to talk with me? When?" asked the blonde.

"Early tomorrow morning…5," replied the voice on the other line.

"Where would you like to meet?"

"At the park near my apartment. I expect you to be there…alone."

"Of course I'll be there," replied Tohma. He hung up the phone, setting back into its cradle carefully.

"Well, I wonder what you could possible want to talk about, Eiri."

-5 am Park-

Tohma pulled into a parking space next to the curb. Across the street was where Eiri Yuki would be waiting for him. 'Now or never,' he thought to himself and opened the car door. He walked across the street and into the green area, to a bench and waited.

"Good. You're here," a deep voice said, breaking the morning's silence. Out from the shadows emerged a tall, golden blonde with piercing golden eyes to match. From his lips hung a Marlboro cigarette.

"What do you want, Eiri? What do you want to talk about?" asked Tohma.

"The brat. I want to know why he's hanging around you. I want to know if what he said was true," replied Yuki.

Tohma took a deep breath and said, "He's near me because I'm the one who's been taking care of him. And everything he told you is true."

Yuki's eye's widened with horror. Darn it…didn't Shigure warn him not to drink so much? Of course, the other novelist always seemed rather drunk himself. 'Hell, he's always drunk. That's his damn personality.' His thoughts were broken as Tohma spoke again. He narrowed his eyes.

"Stay away from Shuichi. I don't want to see him in such emotional pain again."

"What's this? Have you developed feelings for him, Seguchi?"

"Maybe I have, maybe I haven't. That's not any of your concern-"

"It IS my concern because you've got a thing for my brat!" yelled Yuki.

"…It is my concern because…I love him and his staying with me has made it my concern. Farewell, Eiri," and with that, he left the park, heading for his car across the street, leaving behind an agitated novelist to smolder in his anger.

-At the Hotel-

As Nittle Grasper's green-eyed blonde walked through the door, he was tackled b a worried pink-haired vocalist.

"Tohma, where were ya? I was soo worried! I was beginning tothinkthatyouweregonnaleavemeherebutthenIrealizedthatyouwouldn'tdothatbecauseyou'renothinglikeYukiandandI-" Shuichi was cut off there by gentle lips; nothing like Yuki's at all. A hand snaked back to entangle itself in pink locks. Mixed emotions stirred through Shuichi again like before. His heart started pounding and a light blush colored his cheeks. Before he realized it, those lips had disappeared.

Tohma had noticed that Shuichi must have been into the hotel's complimentary box of divinity (1). He also noticed how his kiss had such an effect on the boy.

"I'm sorry I made you worry, Shu-kun. I should have left you a note or something. He moved his hand from the vocalist's hair to the side of said boy's cheek, moving it to caress his skin. 'So soft…'

"O-oh, it's ok!" proclaimed Shuichi, having recovered from the kiss. He then started talking non-stop about…something. Tohma just sat there and smiled…


To be continued…

Well, I hope ya'll liked it! I'm sorry that it's taken me so long to get this up. Things have just been…happening lately.

(1)I figured since divinity is made of pure sugar, it would be the perfect thing to get hyper from…

I've been a little depressed lately. My best friend has a boyfriend and they are soo happy. It inspires me so to see them together. But, in seeing them together, it has made me realize that this missy (points to self) is lonely. And it really doesn't help that my other friend has found herself a boyfriend, too. She just rubbed it in my face today that she got her first kiss. V.v that is not a good thing…Oh, I'm gonna just stop. I don't even know why I'm bothering ya'll with my problems! Ya'll take care now!

Love,
