Chronicle 2
Maiko sat around a table with her friends.
"Did you get to read Yuki Eiri's newest novel yet?"
"Yep! I just finished it last night!"
Maiko sipped her cherry slushie. She tried to ignore her friends.
"So, Maiko, where were you last night?" one of her friends asked, poking her. "What were you doing?"
Maiko looked over at her friend. "Yuki Eiri is gay." Her friends went silent. Maiko continued to sip her slushie. "Excuse me?" Another one of her friends said.
"Yuki Eiri-sama isn't gay!" one of her friends shouted.
"He can't be gay! He writes such wonderful and amazing love stories!"
"And how would you know that he was gay? Some stupid unofficial Yuki Eiri fan site or something?"
Maiko took her mouth away from the straw. "How could I not know? Yuki Eiri's Shuichi's boyfriend."
Her friends sat there with their mouths wide open. "WHAT!" They shouted in disbelief. "Shuichi? Your brother who went off to become a rock star?"
Maiko nodded. "I knew about it for a while. Not a lot of people know about it. Only people very, very close to Shuichi and Yuki know it. My parents don't even know about it."
Maiko turned pale suddenly. "I witnessed Yuki making a move on my brother. It was...kind of scary." Maiko looked at her friends. "I just left Shuichi's Apartment for a few minutes. And when I came back, I caught them kissing. Then Yuki slammed Shuichi against the wall. Then I was invited of Yuki's house for dinner..."
Her friend's mouths dropped open again. "You had dinner...with Yuki Eiri!"
"Shh! People are gonna start staring!"
"Anyway, we got into the car. Yuki bit Shuichi's ear!And then we went back to their house..."
"Their house?"
Maiko fiddled with her hair. "Yeah. Shuichi and Yuki are living together. Shuichi gets kicked out occasionally though." Maiko started to braid her hair. "While I was there, I got into a small fight with Yuki. He left Shuichi feeling lonely, even though Shuichi loves him to death."
Her friends were behind Maiko's back. "They live together, they kiss...what else do they do?"
Maiko sighed, nervously. "They live together, they hug, they kiss and make out, and..." She didn't want to end her sentence. She knew the last one would gross her friend's out.
"Err...I better not tell you guys." Maiko got up and left.
Shuichi woke up with a smile. He finally got the answer he wanted; Yuki telling him he loved him. He waited so long for that answer. Yuki's arm laid over Shuichi's chest. "Yu·ki" Shuichi whispered into Yuki's ear.
Yes, he was over Yuki's house again. Why? Well, if you read the other Chapter, you'd know that he didn't want to lose Shuichi and that he was sorry that he couldn't spend enough time with him. So he let him stay over that night. (And also, if you read the last chapter, you might be thinking that they did something too, but just to clarify it, they didn't do anything.)
Anyway, Yuki turned his head. "What?" Shuichi put his arm around his lover. "Good Morning" Yuki took Shuichi's arm off of him. He got up and looked over his shoulder. "Good Morning." And left the room.
Shuichi spread out his arms and legs, then yawned. The room seemed brighter then normal. He smiled with delight. " I love you...Yuki."
A scent of breakfast slithered though the air and caught Shuichi's attention. Shuichi followed the scent to the kitchen. He saw Yuki cooking breakfast. "Yuki..."
"Hello, Shuichi."
Shuichi spotted a bit of pancake batter on Yuki's cheek. He walked up to him and licked his cheek. "You had some batter on your cheek." Yuki looked at Shuichi, grabbed some leftover pancake batter and put it on Shuichi's cheek. Yuki licked his cheek in return.
"You taste good."
Shuichi yelled, "Why'd ya do that?"
"So I could lick you back." Yuki went back to cooking. Shuichi walked out of the kitchen, smiling too much. So much, that it started to hurt his face. Shortly after, Yuki shouted for Shuichi to come, since the food was ready.
There was an awkward silence at the table. Shuichi played with his food a bit. Yuki just calmly ate.
"What are you doing today?"
Yuki put down his fork. "Working."
"Really? Me too!"
Suddenly, out of no where, Yuki kicked Shuichi. "You dumb4$$, we work everyday." Shuichi got up off the ground. "I know that! It was just so quiet, I had to say something."
Shuichi put down the fork, which came with him when he went flying out of the chair.
Shuichi got off the ground and walked towards a window. "Just to warn you, in the next magazine interview, I'm going to tell everyone I'm a homosexual." Yuki went wide eyed. "Don't worry, I won't say that you're my lover."
"Shuichi, that might ruin your career!"
Shuichi smiled. "I know. Especially if I wanted to release a CD in America." Yuki raised an eyebrow, confused by what Shuichi said. "Oh, yeah. K has lately been reading about some news about homophobic's in America and how they're trying to ban homosexual couples from getting married."
Yuki smirked. "That means that we probably both don't have a chance to release something in America, right?" Yuki put his arms around Shuichi. "Yeah..." They kissed. Shuichi caught a glimpse of what Yuki's watch said. It was 8 o'clock AM. "Dn! I'm late!" He said, getting out of Yuki's grasp. He slid on his shoes and waved good-bye.
"Hello Hiro, Suguru." greeted Shuichi, as he walked through the door. "You're late." murmured Suguru, obviously not happy. "Hey, Shuichi." Hiro replied with a smile.
Sakano ran over to Shuichi. "Why are you late! Mr. President won't be happy about this!" Shuichi smiled. "I was with Yuki Eiri this morning! That's why I was lat---"
Shuichi just realized he didn't eat any of the breakfast Yuki cooked. "Oh no! I didn't eat it!"
Everyone exchanged looks. "Eat what?" Shuichi frowned "The breakfast Yuki made...us." Shuichi walked over to the microphone. "I was playing with my food, said something to break the silence, then Yuki kicked me."
CRACK! BOOM!
K fell down from the ceiling, once again. "Oops, my bad." K casually walked over to the controls, a machine gun over his left shoulder. The tip of the gun was practically on Suguru's nose. Suguru let out a small, tiny gasp before backing away, quickly.
"Let's begin recording!" shouted K (Actually in English too), his index finger over a button that said "REC" in huge, red, bold letters. Shuichi was all ready, but Hiro and Suguru still had to set up. Within five minutes, they were ready to record.
BEEP!
Shuichi started to sing his new song. The song was based on his relationship with Yuki. He compared Yuki to a demonic angel and Shuichi's love for him like a fire burning pure and bright. Of course, he never really told anyone it was about their relationship. He knew that some people would be able to tell though.
And he was right. After they finished recording the song for the first time, Hiro came up to him. "'Demonic Angel'? 'Fire burning pure and bright'? It's based off your feelings for Yuki, isn't it?" Shuichi smiled and hugged his best friend. "Yes! You're right!" Hiro froze for a second, considering Shuichi usually didn't hug him.
Shuichi backed away. "Oh! Sorry! I got so used to hugging people..." Hiro raised an eyebrow. "How?" Shuichi started to count how he did on his fingers. "Well, I hugged my sister a lot, and she's family. And I also hug Yuki a lot, and he's my lover. I hug the microphone. I hug things that are close to my heart." Hiro really had no clue what Shuichi was talking about.
"Hiro, did I ever tell you that you're like a brother to me?"
Hiro shook his head. Shuichi did a victory (v) sign. "'cause you are!" Hiro laughed at Shuichi's stupidity. "Shuichi?" Shuichi smiled. "Yes?" "Do you actually hug Yuki or do you 'hug' him when you're making love?"
An awkward silence fell around the room. "Hiro!" shouted Shuichi, now blushing of embarrassment. Very few people---and I actually mean a very few people---were suppose to know that he and Yuki actually did that, but not repeat it to anyone.
"You guys..." Suguru yelped.
"Now this is interesting. Why didn't Eiri tell me?"
Everyone turned, seeing Touma Seguchi.
k! The President! Seguchi-san, thought Shuichi.
Touma smirked. "I'm going to have to tell Mika about this." Shuichi opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't. Touma flipped open a cellphone. He quickly dialed Mika's cellphone number. Shuichi turned redder and redder by the second. "S-s-Seguchi-san!" shouted Shuichi.
"Hello, Mika. You won't believe what I just heard. Yuki and Shuichi make love---"
"WHAT!" they heard from the other line.
Shuichi sunk down into the ground with embarrassment. "Hiro," whispered Shuichi. "Hm?" "I...I think I should really sneak out of here right now."
"Why?"
"I have a feeling Mika's going to stop by Yuki's house sooner then later..."
"Oh. Then you probably should."
Shuichi slithered out the door, and made a dash for the door.
"Shindou-san is leaving the building." Touma told his beloved wife over the phone. "So, what are you going to do?"
"Talk to them." Mika said, hang up the phone.
"...Hiro did what?" asked Yuki, hoping he didn't hear Shuichi correctly.
"He asked me if I really do hug you or if I hug you only when we make love. And it got out and---" Shuichi was cut off by the door bell.
Shuichi turned pale. "Please tell me that's not your sister..."
"My sister...? You mean, Mika-san?"
Shuichi nodded. "Seguchi-san was there and he called her. I'm pretty sure she'll come here now..."
"EIRI! SHINDOU SHUICHI! OPEN UP!"
Yuki and Shuichi exchanged glances. Yep, it was Mika alright. Yuki walked over to the door. "Yuki! Don't!" whined Shuichi. Yuki grabbed Shuichi's chin and kissed him. Their lips separated.
"Be a good boy and go sit on the couch." Surprisingly, Shuichi listened. He just hoped everything would be alright.
Mika walked into the living room, Yuki right behind her. Yuki took his place next to Shuichi. "Separate." Mika pointed at Yuki. Yuki clamped onto Shuichi---which he didn't do to often, usually only to get someone really mad---and started to cuddle Shuichi. "I'm not separating from him."
Mika walked over to Yuki and slapped him. "Stay away from little boys."
"Yuki!" screeched Shuichi in horror.
Mika then slapped Shuichi. "And you stay away from my kid brother."
Shuichi started to cry a bit. I knew it! I knew I couldn't stay with Yuki forever! Everyone and everything wants apart. Yuki saw that this was happening (Shuichi crying, I mean), so he got up. He grabbed his sister's shirt, which scared both Mika and Shuichi. "You can slap me, but don't slap Shuichi! He's been hurt enough."
Mika looked down at Yuki's hands. "Let go of me." Yuki let go, and Mika fell backwards. "Jerk!" she shouted.
She cleared her throat as Yuki helped Shuichi off the ground. "What do you two think you're doing? Making love? You're two guys for frickin' sake!" Yuki and Shuichi exchanged glances.
"Homophobic." They both said, pointing at Mika.
Mika looked really p'oed. "Shuichi, how old are you? Aren't you like...15, 16?" Shuichi shook his head. "No, I'm 19." "And I'm 23." Yuki said, grabbing Shuichi's hand. "We're only four years apart; there isn't anything wrong with that, now is there?" Yuki moved his mouth closer to Shuichi's ear.
Mika was really mad now. "He's too young still! You stole away his virginity! And you're a man, not a woman."
"Excuse me, Mika-san; if I can call you that; I love Yuki to death. I don't care that he did that to me. He bullies me, he's cold to me, he teases me. Does that really all matter in the end? I'm just really glad it was him I did it with, then some random girl I picked up off the streets."
Everything went silent. Suddenly, Yuki pounced on top of Shuichi. "I can't take it anymore! You look really cute right now!" Yuki brushed back Shuichi's somewhat long hair behind his ears and kissed him. I don't care if the whole world was watching! I love him too much! Shuichi thought as he felt Yuki's fingers across his chest.
Mika looked at her younger brother and looked at Shuichi. "Fools. Well, at least you two are happy." She murmured. "I couldn't come up with anything good anyway, considering they're only four years apart." She watched them for another minute, but quickly left when she started to notice that they were starting to undress.
Yuki, don't leave me. Please. Shuichi thought before he was completely into what they were doing.
Shuichi laid on the couch, waiting for Yuki to give the signal to come in and eat dinner. Shuichi felt so warm inside. His heart was pounding. Just an hour ago, he and Yuki were doing exactly what Mika told them not to do. (Which you guys should know by now!) He couldn't believe that Yuki made a move on him, with Mika standing right there!
"Shuichi," was all Yuki had to say. Shuichi moved towards the kitchen and sat down. They started to eat. Shuichi constantly stared at his lover. He could still fell Yuki's fingers running across his chest and back.
"What?" asked Yuki. "I love you!" Shuichi declared. Yuki continued eating.
I wonder...should I ask him? I mean, we've been together for such a long time and all, thought Shuichi. (Of course, nobody but Shuichi and I, the narrator, the goddess of this strange and hilarious and serious fanfiction knows! Mwhaa ha ha ha! Anyway;) Shuichi made eye contact with Yuki.
"Yuki, may I call you..." There was a slight pause. "Eiri?" Yuki gave him a strange look. "You could have started to a year ago." Shuichi looked shocked at Yuki's reply. "I...I could have?" Yuki nodded. "You're just so stupid, that---" Shuichi had cut off Yuki talking, by leaning over the table and kissing him. Yuki just sat there, calmly.
Shuichi sat back down and started to eat again.
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"You just inspired me to put something in one of my novels I haven't put in there before."
Shuichi went starry eyed. "R-really!"Yuki nodded. Shuichi was smiling, once again. He couldn't believe it! Yuki got inspired to put something inside one of his novels. Except, what was it? What did he want to put into it?
"Hey, Shuichi?" Shuichi tilted his head at Yuki. "Yes?" Yuki got up from the table and walked out of the kitchen. He came back in a matter of seconds with a book in his hand. He threw it at Shuichi. "You've never read one of my works, right?" Shuichi nodded. "Read that one. It's my debut novel. Read my novels; you might learn more about me."
Shuichi finished eating, put his dirty plate into the sink, and ran to the couch and plopped himself down on it. He opened Yuki's novel and started to read it, slowly. Yuki, who was standing a bit far away, leaning on the door frame, looked at Shuichi with a (slightly crooked) smile. He walked away to wash the dishes.
This...this...this is...excellent! I wonder if Yuki's novels get any better? Shuichi continued reading. A couple of seconds later, he realized he made the mistake of calling Yuki by "Yuki" instead of "Eiri," which he was suppose to be doing.
He shook the mistake off and continued on reading. Before he knew it, he was only three chapters away from finishing the book.
"Oi, are you coming to bed now?" asked Yuki. Shuichi looked up from the book. "I'll be in there after I finish this...err...your book." Shuichi smiled and went back to reading. Yuki walked over to Shuichi and sat down next to him. "I remember typing this part. I had to revise it about ten times before I got it correct." Shuichi smirked and turned his head to Yuki. "Really?" Yuki nodded. "It was quite hard to figure out how the hell I should have worded it." Shuichi continued to read on.
An hour passed and Shuichi was on the last two pages. Yuki had only stopped him two more times to tell him something about the part he was reading, such as his original ideas. It kind of surprised Shuichi on how Yuki was being, sharing his original thoughts, ideas, and memories with him.
Shuichi closed the book and handed it to Yuki. "There you go. It was excellent! I loved it!" Yuki gave a slight, small smile and walked off to put the book back. "Hey, let's go to bed now, okay?" asked Yuki. Shuichi smiled as he ran to catch up with the Yuki that was walking away.
Shuichi hopped into bed before Yuki did, since Yuki had to actually change into pajamas and Shuichi didn't; Shuichi just wore whatever was underneath his current clothing. Shuichi hugged his pillow. He was quite happy that he got to stay over another night.
"Move over." Shuichi slide towards the end of the bed. Yuki climbed into it. Shortly after Yuki laid down, Shuichi cuddled him. "Could you not do that? You're not a girl or a cat." Shuichi pouted. "Shut up. You know you like it."
Yuki lifted one eye open, looking at Shuichi. "Maybe I do, maybe I don't." He turned so he was was on his left side, his body facing Shuichi. He pulled Shuichi closer. Shuichi dug his face into Yuki's chest, with that familiar, glowing smile upon his rosy cheeked face.
"No, no! Please don't Yuki! Don't leave me!" shouted Shuichi. "You're a damn brat and I have no time to be with you. You're wasting my time." Yuki said, as he walked off. "Yuki! Yuki! YUKI EIRI!" yelled Shuichi.
"...ichi! Shuichi! SHUICHI!" Shuichi was being shaken away. He sat up. He felt warm drops of water run down his eyes. Tears. "Shu-chan, are you okay?" Shuichi looked at Yuki straight in the eyes. "No I'm not." Shuichi looked down. He abruptly threw his arms around his beloved Yuki Eiri. "Don't leave me!" he cried. "My dream...you said...I was...I was...a damn brat and you had no time to be with me and I was wasting your time and then you faded off into the distance."
Yuki looked over at his window. "The only time I'll ever leave you is when I die," he murmured. "What?" asked Shuichi. "Oh, nothing." Shuichi shook Yuki. "Come on! Tell me! Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please? Pretty Please?" "No."
