''

Tsuzuki closed his eyes with a heave sigh later that night.

He laid quietly in bed with Tatsumi while he read.

Said reader looked over at Tsuzuki with a soft smile and brushed his fingers over his silky hair.

"We'll all get through this Tsuzuki. I promise."

Tsuzuki curled up tightly and rested his head in Tatsumi's lap as the secretary softly stroked his hair.

"Hisoka looked really hurt today. I've never felt so guilty in my life than when I looked into his eyes. I mean I feel like this was the right thing to do, but I didn't want to hurt him."

Tatsumi nodded.

"I didn't want to hurt Watari…but you know it would be wrong for us to see each other and carry on in our other relationships. Tsuzuki…you didn't break up with Hisoka because…"

Tsuzuki looked up at him and shook his head.

"I just wanted to be with you and if the only way was to say good bye to him than I'm okay that I did it."

Tatsumi leaned down and softly kissed Tsuzuki's forehead.

"Get to sleep, I can't allow you to be late for work anymore. Dating me doesn't change the rules."

Tsuzuki smiled and nodded, laying back on his pillow and wrapping his arm around Tatsumi's waist.

"Good night Tatsumi."

Tatsumi turned out the light and stretched out as well, taking Tsuzuki's other hand tightly.

"Good night Tsuzuki…"

''

Watari looked up at the clock.

"Bon. It's getting late. You should call it a night."

Hisoka nodded but looked up at him.

"Watari. Do you mind if I crash here tonight?"

Watari looked at him questioningly but nodded all the same.

"Why?"

Hisoka frowned and looked away.

"I'm not used to being so alone anymore. I've shared everything with Tsuzuki for almost three years…I feel abandoned. I need to feel the presence of another person, if not in the same room, that at least the same building."

Watari smiled softly and rested his hand on Hisoka's shoulder.

At that moment Hisoka looked into his eyes and he suddenly blushed.

"Thank you Watari."

Watari flashed his trademark smile as he went back to his work.

"You're welcomed here any time you like. Anyway, there's a bed in the back that I use if I get too tired to walk home. You can crash there and I'll wake you up when I go home. You can take the couch at my place."

Hisoka smiled.

"That's a nice idea. Thank you."

It wasn't long before Hisoka was asleep and Watari sighed.

'Poor Bon; I'm really glad he's leaning on me, because I really need to lean on him too.'

''

"I see. Well, congratulate yourself Muraki…you've turned me into a first rate murderer. Yes, everything has been set up according to our plans…I'll see you in a few days."

Oriya hung up the phone with a sigh and set his pipe down.

He was going to need more than a little nicotine to calm himself.

This called for alcohol and woman.

Lots of both.

But first he had something to settle.

Another phone call and then…

"This is Oriya Yakono. I've found your daughter…yes, I'll be sure to bring her tomorrow…really; it was no trouble at all Mrs. Akina. Thank you for your time."

Now to make sure the woman didn't do any talking to anyone other that two people.

He unlocked the door to his bedroom and opened it slowly.

A single shat of light from the half moon outside, penetrated the darkness and came to rest over lavender hair on the bed.

'Good, she's still asleep. Those drugs I've been giving her should at least slow her down. Well Muraki, it looks like you've not only turned me into a murderer, but a kidnapper, black mailer, and excellent liar as well. I don't know whether to kill myself or be proud. I'm sure you'd still be happy either way…'

He pulled a bottle of unlabeled pills from a pocket inside his kimono and dropped one into the water on the nightstand.

'Last one…for now anyway. I have someone better to use it on.'

Replacing the bottle, he left, locking the door again.

Smiling he turned to the bright moon.

'Time to get drunk.'
