Mask-Chapter 7-

"Truth and Strategies"

Back at Ryuichi's apartment, Shuiichi was still in her arms. 'Hmmm.. this feels nice' he thought, as he held him tighter wishing for time just to stand still. Suddenly his mobile phone rang, he quickly answered it.

"Moshi moshi?" he softly answered.

"Ryu-koi? It's me Tatsuha"the called answered back.

"What do you want you pervert?" Ryuichi hissed.

"Please Ryu-koi, forgive me. I love you and I want u back I promise not to do it again"Tatsuha pleaded.

Ryuichi knew this was not gonna be easy. He pulled off from Shuiichi and stood up.

"I'll be back Shu-chan, I just got to take this call I'll be right with you"Ryuichi said,Shuichi just nodded and turned on the computer to amuse himself once more.

"Ryu-koi? Is Shuiichi with you?what is he doing there with you?"Tatsuha asked.

"Haha…he's staying with me now..and no Tatsuha I'll never come back to you, now that I've found a beautiful angel with a heart so pure.Goodbye" Ryuichi replied and immediately hung up. He went out of the room and looked at Shuiichi as he was busy typing away on the computer. 'I'll make you mine Shu-chan, I won't give up til I do..' he thought to himself. Then he got a great idea.

At Yuki's Tatsuha was still in shock. 'My Ryu-koi found someone new?who could it be?a beautiful angel with a heart so pure?Who coul'he thought. Then he finally go the idea. "Ma saka, it couldn't be Shuiichi?"he asked himself, Yuki came in and looked at his brother.

"Oi baka!what are you doing?"he asked in his usually unenthusiastic voice.

"Ne nichan, I don't think you're gonna be getting Shuiichi back easily"Tatsuha slowly said,Yuki just raised his brows, his piercing golden eyes staring at him.

"And why the hell not?"Yuki asked back.

"I just called up my Ryu-koi, Shuiichi's staying with him"Tatsuha started.

"And how in the world does that link to me not getting my baka back?"Yuki questioned.

"Coz this time Ryuichi loves the one you seek"Tatsuha answered. Yuki's eyes were wide open, Ryuichi was planning to steal his baka away from him.

"Huh!Shuiichi loves me,he's not gonna fall for Ryuichi"Yuki said confidently.

"Eh?what's wrong with my Ryu-koi?he's sexy as hell than your bratty Shu-chan, and F.Y.I nichan, Ryuichi always gets what he wants"Tatsuha argued. Yuki didn't show it but he was getting worried about what would happen if he didn't get his baka back as soon as possible. 'It just can't be' he thought and puffed another cigarette.

Ryuichi's house

"Ne Sakuma-san,who were you talking to over the phone?"Shuiichi asked.Ryuichi sat down beside him.

"Just Tatsuha,no big deal"Ryuichi replied.

"Sakuma-san,why did you break up with Tatsuha-san?"Shuiichi asked again. Sakuma just smiles and petted Shuiichi on the head. "Saa, no more questions. Pack your bags Shu-chan we're going to see my family"he said.

"Uh okay"Shuiichi nodded,stood up and went to his room and started to pack his things.Ryuichi could only smiles 'Hmm..a trip with Shu-chan"he could only think. They got outside and there parked a beautiful Ducati motorbike.

"Waah!Sakuma-san is that what were gonna ride?"Shuiichi squealed and was all wide eyed in amusement.

"Hai,hold onto me tight Shu-chan"Ryuichi said as he mounted the bike first,then motioned for Shuiichi to hop on. Shuiichi was really excited,he missed riding bikes since Hiro spent all his free time with Ayaka. The engine was booming, Ryuichi clipped on a mini radio on the bike playing his and Shuiichi's songs.

"This is great Sakuma-san" Shuiichi said happily.Sakuma could only smile. "I'm glad you're happy Shu-chan"Ryuichi said.

The bike was fast so it didn't take long for them to stand before the Sakuma residence. It was not big like Ryuichi's apartment, it was in fact small. The gate opened and there a young girl was peeking.

"Ryu-nichan?"the girl spoke as her eyes widen in surprise.

"Konnichiwa Kanae-chan"Ryuichi greeted. The young girl ran towards Ryuichi and hugged him tight. The gate opened wider and people were coming out. It was Ryuichi's whole family.

"Oh Ryu,we're glad you decided to come home for a visit.It has been a while and I see you brought a friend along with you"Mr.Sakuma said.

"Hai,it's good to be home Otto-san, this is my friend Shuiichi Shin"Ryuichi started but was cut off,by two girls running past him and grabbing Shuiichi by the hand."I can't believe it,Shuiichi Shindou is here..and staying with us"they both said excitedly. Ryuichi could only sigh.

"Shu-chan meet my weird younger sisters, Ashura and Maki, this cute one over here is Kanae"Ryuichi introduced. They got inside the house and settled in.

"Gomen Shu-chan, our house is not that big. I tried buying them a new house but they all said it's no necessary. I like my family's simplicity, for us money isn't really everything. You can get the bed and I'll sleep on the floor"Ryuichi spoke. "It's ok Sakuma-san we can share this bed,I think we can both fit"Shuiichi said.

It was dinner time, Shuiichi helped in setting the table since he didn't know how to cook well and might risk burning the kitchen. Ryuichi's mother nudged his son, "He's a really nice boy, your new koibito?" Mrs.Sakuma asked.

"Iie Oka-san, not just yet..i'm working on telling him how I truly feel"Ryuichi answed.

"Well you can tell him tomorrow, there's a festival in town I think it will be great there are fireworks and amusement parks there ne?"his mother suggested. Ryuichi could only smile and gave his mother a big hug, it was sweet of his mother to help him out.They sat down the table,prayed for their meals and started eating their dinner.

"Ne Ryu-nichan, will Shu-nichan come with us to the festival tomorrow?"Kanae asked sweetly.

"I don't know Kanae, why don't you ask Shu-nichan"Ryuichi said,the little girl turned to Shuiichi and look at him. "Hai, I'd be glad to attend the festival Kanae-chan"Shuiichi answered genkily. As soon as dinner was over Ryuichi and Shuuichi washed the dishes and cleaned up. "Your family is really nice Sakuma-san, reminds me of my family"Shuiichi shared.After that they retired to their room and less than a minute fell asleep.

Back at Yuki's,being a bit more worried than before he consumed 2 packs of beer and 2 packs of cigarette. Tatsuha felt sorry for his big brother. "Nichan,let's go somewhere"he spoke out.

"Nani? Our koi'sare together and who knows what would happen, and all you're saying is 'let's go somewhere.Aren't you even worried"Yuki said.

Tatsuha could only smile. "Oh but I am worried about my honey Ryuichi, I called 10 times again but he could't be reached plus Noriko said he went home to his hometown and that's where we're going"he replied. Yuki didn't think his brother could get any smarter.

"I guess I underestimated you little brother"Yuki said,a small grin on his face.

"Yeah,well you always do"Tatsuha said and laughed.They spent their night plotting a strategy on how to get their koi's back,

"Yada!"Ryuichi screamed,waking up from a horrible dream,now totally covered in sweat.Shuiichi was awake and held him to calm Ryuichi down. "Sakuma-san,calm down it was just a dream"Shuiichi said,patting the other's back. Ryuichi sunk into Shuiichi chest and started to sob heavily.

"Sakuma-san, what's wrong?please tell me"Shuiichi suggested.Ryuichi sat up slowly and looked at Shuiichi.

"Is it about Tatsuha-san?why did you break up Sakuma-san?" Shuiichi questioned once more.

"He tried to rape me"he said hesitantly.
