Twenty

Lights flickered around the dance floor and he dragged into the large crowd of people. It wasn't as crowded as it usually would be here but it was only because Atobe was only inviting friends of his and their friends.

"Mizuki slow down! I'm going to fall!" called out Yuuta as his arm was being Yuuta by Mizuki who was quickly weaving in and out of crowds. Obviously Mizuki was used to this...(Yuuta had yet to figure out why). Finally he stopped holding both of Yuuta's hands.

"Yuuta-kun."

"Hm?"

"Dance with me," said Mizuki.

Yuuta smiled and placed his arms around his boyfriend's waist drawing him close. They actually could care less about public display of affection at the time. All that mattered was them.

"Of course," replied Yuuta as he felt Mizuki's slender hands go around his neck.

Dancing was more like holding eachother; but oh well! It was being close to eachother that really counted didn't it? That was until Mizuki flinched as he felt a finger poking at the small of his back. A smooth and yet devious voice said, "Step away from the little brother and nobody gets hurt."

Mizuki obeyed almost instantly and Fuji replied by saying it was a joke. That night ended up being an odd twists of events. They had met with a bunch of old friends including Atobe who was of course going to show up at his own party. Jiroh and Atobe looked amazing and looked also like they were doing extremely well. Jiroh had on some expensive looking clothes and had diamond bracelets adorning his wrists. Along with a beautiful looking royal blue ring with orange diamonds on his left hand. Ring finger.

Yuuta and Mizuki almost laughed at that because Atobe had just as much of an extravagant ring on his ring finger as well. Yuuta almost thought that he should get Mizuki some sort of jewelry as well seeing that Mizuki would be lost in complete and utter glee if Yuuta gave him such a gift.

"Nice to see you both are doing well yourselves," said Atobe.

Mizuki smiled.

"Not only you have such a successful relationship Keigo," he pointed out as if he were bragging.

"What am I?A show toy?" muttered Yuuta as his boyfriend clung onto his arm.

"Sugoi! You two are together!" asked Jiroh excitedly.

"But of course," replied Mizuki.

Atobe looked confident as he said he knew such a thing would happen. And yet he could barely maintain his own relationship with Jiroh when it first began. It needed the help of Mizuki in the first place. Jiroh grinned goofily replying, "You both look really good together!"

Both Yuuta and Mizuki blushed at the comment murmuring a small thank you.

"Jiroh and I better head to bed soon Hajime. I have to be in Korea tomorrow and it's going to be a long flight. Not to mention a day. There's one hell of a player from there; I'm looking forward to my match against him," said Atobe.

"Which player is it from Korea?" asked Jiroh blinking.

"He goes by the name Izu the Ice Mountain because it takes a lot to break him play. From what I heard he's originally from Japan but lived in Korea for a very long time so they accepted him to represent their country," explained Atobe.

"Good luck with that," said Yuuta.

"Yes best of luck," added Mizuki.

"Don't worry Keigo doesn't need any luck!" exclaimed Jiroh.

"Damn straight," said Atobe.

Mizuki sighed. This guy and his ego! Sheesh, yes Mizuki had one himself but it wasn't as big as Atobe's.

Yuuta was then soon again dragged off across the dance floor and said goodbye once again to Tezuka and Fuji. Not to mention Eiji and Oishi. And left for the night. Yuuta had this odd feeling that in the end that nobody would ever split apart that everyone would be connected because of certain people. He felt like in the end everyone would be as close as family could get even though some of them were friends or relatives.

(A/N: Yes this is a very short chapter; only because this is the end of where we left off in Memory and I could only go so far. After this chapter we shall be in the sequel to Memory. It will be Fuji/Tezuka and Mizuki/Yuuta centric and NOW we'll get to see a little bit more of Seigaku. I really hope I'll be able to surprise you all for what all I have planned. I posting up the next chapter right now because this one was waaaay too short! ')
