Nineteen

Years had passed since then. Yuuta had graduated highschool and was attending the same college that Mizuki was attending. Fuji had soon gotten better from his heartache but was still not fully recovered. Everything was okay for now. At least until something started up again.

"You're literally torturing yourself aren't you!" asked Yuuta as he drove down his brother's street.

Mizuki and Yuuta had just gotten back from Hokkaido where they spent half of their winter break relaxing before they had to face work at college and not to mention work to keep their apartment. Which meant that Mizuki had to be working at the bookshop in the city right after Christmas every other day. And Yuuta worked at the arcade near the bookshop where Mizuki worked. The arcade was also where Kamio Akira worked and also where the mumbling (not to mention annoying in Yuuta's opinion) Ibu Shinji hanged out watching Kamio work and waiting for him to finish. Now they were going over to see Yuuta's brother Syusuke to wish him a Merry Christmas and also for another reason...

"I only think it's right to tell your brother of our relationship now Yuuta-kun. Three years Yuuta! Going on four in the spring. We can't keep it a secret forever. We've told your sister and my family knows; so it's only right to tell your brother. He'd eventually figure out anyway," Mizuki explained.

Yuuta parked the car in the driveway only to see a whole group of people in the backyard. Mizuki and Yuuta got out of the car seeing that Fuji and Ryoma Echizen in the backyard playing tennis. Eiji Kikumaruand Oishi Shuichiro were there along with Inui and Kaidoh Seigaku's "Data Pair" alongwith the power player Momoshiro Takeshi. Then leaning against the house's wall was none other than a fully returned Tezuka Kunimitsu refereeing the game between Ryoma and Fuji. He was back in the flesh.

"It's a miracle, he's back," whispered Mizuki.

Yuuta nodded slowly as they opened the gate andhe saw Ryomaduck a fast flying ball quickly.CLANG! And shriek! A tennis ball had aimed straight for Mizuki who was now on the ground looking horrified as the tennis ball bounced off the gate and rolled onto the concrete.

"Baka Aniki!" screamed Yuuta. He had known that was some how going to happen.

The whole thing had ended up being one huge mess; Yuuta at first thought telling his brother would be a huge mistake. In the end it ended up being a test of loyalty by a tennis match that Mizuki won only because Fuji had tampered with his own racket instead of Mizuki's. It ended up being a happy ending for them all thankfully.

"Mizuki, you better take care of my brother," Fuji warned his eyes opening.

"Don't worry; I will."

They bided goodbye to everyone and as soon as the door to the house closed after another 'good night' toFuji Yuuta hugged Mizuki tight.

"Hajime you were amazing!" he whispered excitedly.

Mizuki looked shocked and pushed away.

"Y-You called me by my first name." he pointed out.

Yuuta cackled.

"I like calling you Mizuki more because it's what I'm used to calling you; that and it suits you better than your first name. But as I said you were freaking amazing! Honestly," he explained still grinning.

"Nfu, you were just as amazing. My prince defended me," Mizuki said clinging onto Yuuta's arm until they got into their car. They drove to their apartment in silence and as soon as they parked Yuuta said, "You know I think this counts as a celebration."

Mizuki grinned.

"What kind of celebration?" he asked.

Yuuta smirked, "Everything that we haven't done."

"I suppose I could trust you to be good to me," said Mizuki as they walked upstairs.

"Suppose? You know I would; I'm never do anything to hurt you Mizuki!" said Yuuta.

"I know. Yuuta-kun, I don't want to disappoint you though. I actually….was taken by him so it really doesn't leave me as a virgin," murmured Mizuki a slight blush tenting his face.

"So what? He had you before I did; this would be our first time Mizuki. The plus side is that you probably would be used to the pain," said Yuutawith a smug smirk on hisfaceas he unlocked the door to their apartment.

"Yuuta! You idiot; it still doesn't mean it wouldn't hurt!" Mizuki said slappingthe lefty killeron the shoulder.

Yuuta chuckled, closed, and locked the door.

"I know. I was joking with you. But I will ask that…it's your choice. Whether you would want to do this now or later and if you wanted to take me first or not," he said.

Mizuki was shocked. Yuuta would do all that for him? To wait for him after he did for three going on four years, and if they weren't going to wait… Blush.

"Yuuta-kun, it doesn't matter for both."

Yuuta blinked.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" he asked.

"Yuuta!" Mizuki hissed rolling his eyes. If Yuuta didn't get that then he didn't know what he'd get. He was yanked by the arm and was kissed again.

"I'm joking beautiful," murmured Yuuta his arms going around Mizuki's waist. Okay well maybe he did get it then.


His dark blue eyes glittered as morning sunlight hit on their bodies. Mizuki cuddled up near his lover's chest and kissed where Yuuta's heart would be. They looked absolutely beautiful together, or as Mizuki would say a perfect pair. Yuuta's arms went around him possessively even in his sleep.

Mizuki truly felt like everything was going to be okay. He felt as though this was so right. Yukito would've wanted him to be this happy to be able to move on. Mizuki even though he moved on thought about Yukito often and when he wasn't thinking about Yukito he was thinking about his beloved and all they could do together.

Of course Mizuki thought about other people; but Yukito and Yuuta were his favorite subjects to think about. Just because one was his best friend in the whole wide world while the other one was his boyfriend. Yuuta smiled and his eyes opened finding his lover nestled into him.

"Ohayo," he said.

"Ohayo gozimasu," replied Mizuki.

"I'm sore and tired," whined Yuuta with the same smile on his face.

"Nfu; Yuuta-kun, you'll have to get used to it because you're going to get as addicted to it as much as I am," said Mizuki his hands sliding down to Yuuta's stomach.

Yuuta himself squirmed.

"No, not right now beautiful. Too tired," he murmured his eyes closing slowly.

Mizuki rolled his eyes and grinning; poking him in his navel and Yuuta jumped sending them falling off the bed in a heap of covers. Mizuki screamed and Yuuta quickly tried to hold onto the nearest thing that would keep him on the bed and Mizuki at the same time. In the end all failed and they ended up falling on the floor laughing.

"I'm sorry Yuuta," he said in the end.

Yuuta smiled.

"I'm going to get you back for that one day so watch your back," he warned.

Mizuki rolled his eyes and smirked. Honestly; Yuuta doing something to him? As if!

"I'll be waiting," was all he said.

(A/N: Yay! I just noticed that 'Anything for You' realy had the perfect time frame since Christmas is a week and a two days away. This would be the perfect time frame for the story and it meets to where we are now I guess you could say. ALSO for my dear dear sweet and loyal readers of 'Memory' this part obviously crossed with it. Except we got to see a little bit of it from Yuuta and Mizuki's point of view. We have one more chapter to cross with and we'll be onto the sequel of this story! I hope you'll enjoy it!)
