Chapter 7-Between My Brother and I

Disclaimer: Do Not Owe Gravitation!

notes: none for now. Here it is...

It's been days since Tatsuha saw Ryuichi lastly. He didn't want to be caught by Tohma ever since the confrontation, so he had went to Eiri's apartment to have a brotherly chat.

"Didn't I always told you to knock?" An annoyed voice asked as Tatsuha laughed nervously, "well, I thought I would spare you the time from getting out of your office," he said as he looked around.

"Where's Shuichi?" He asked as Eiri looked at him, "his going to be on hit stage tonight as Nittle Grasper reforms," he said slowly. "Oh, Ryuichi called me to invite me over there tonight at the tv station," Tatsuha said, "what's up with you?" Eiri asked unhappily.

"What are you talking about Eiri?" Tatsuha asked blinking, "you've confronted Tohma about you and Gale. Tohma called me right after you left a few days ago and he hadn't seen you since in the studio," Eiri explained.

"I want to be with Ryuichi, believe me. But how could I if Ryuichi hadn't done anything about Gale?" Tatsuha asked as Eiri sighed, "did you know that Shuichi always finds me if I'm trying to hide? He would never leave my side no matter what," he said slowly.

"Does that mean you two aren't going to separate?" Tatsuha asked, "if you heard that from Tohma, then no. I doubt that Shuichi would leave me even if my brother-in-law is saying so," Eiri said quietly.

"How can I be like you and Shuichi? I love him most in the world!" Tatsuha said as Eiri looked at him, "why don't you tell that to Ryuichi and Gale? Confront them like you did with Tohma," he said.

Tatsuha sighed, "I don't know what got over me on that day really. I just lost my temper," he said. Eiri smiled, "anyone would loose there temper if he/she is forbidded to see a love one," he said.

"Eiri, are you coming tonight?" Tatsuha asked slowly, Eiri shrugged. "The brat invited me to come, but I have work to do since I'm way past my deadline," he said growling.

Tatsuha nodded as he began to leave the office, "I guess I'll see you sometime again big brother," he said as Eiri nodded and Tatsuha left.

(At Ryuichi's Place)

"Awesome! That was great Shuichi!" Ryuichi cried happily as he went towards his friend who had just sang on hit stage. "Thanks Ryuichi," Shuichi said blushing embarrassed as Ryuichi hugged him tightly, "Ryuichi! It's time for us to go up!" Noriko said to him.

Ryuichi nodded to her, "Ryuichi," a voice called out as Ryuichi turned around and saw Tatsuha leaning against the wall. "Tatsuha! What are you doing here?" Ryuichi asked happily as he ran to him, Tatsuha stared at him blankly.

His really clueless like someone we know, he thought as he sighed. "Ryuichi! Noriko! It's time to go on stage! Is everyone ready?" Tohma's voice called out as Tatsuha looked and saw that Tohma was staring at him unhappily.

"Nah Tatsuha, I'll see you later ok? You'll wait for me, right?" Ryuichi asked as Tatsuha looked at him and nodded, Ryuichi smiled happily as he grabbed Noriko and went off onto the stage as the two waited for Tohma.

"Tatsuha, what are you doing here?" Tohma asked unhappily, "Ryuichi invited me here tonight. I'm surprised he didn't invite Gale," Tatsuha said as he glared at Tohma.

Tohma frowned, "we'll talk about this later," he murmured as he went to join his band mates on stage. "Tatsuha, is something wrong?" Shuichi asked worriedly as Tatsuha shook his head, the two watched Ryuichi as he sang Sleepless Beauty.
