Chapter 5:
Taki paced around the living room. He still couldn't get to sleep. He felt like calling Rei and apologizing to him. But then, there was also his pride…Taki never apologized and it was Rei's fault for not supporting him in his every venture. There were also other things on his mind…like why the hell he was starting to depend up on Yuki Eiri's brother so much. Yes the boy wasn't as bad as the novelist, but Taki was a loner…crazy college play boys weren't supposed to be having an effect on him.
Taki padded to Tatsuha's room and opened the door quietly. The boy was fast asleep, his blankets half off. Taki could see the rise and fall of his chest quiet clearly. He moved closer to get a better look until he was bending over the boy. Kami, the boy was so beautiful! His skin shining a little in the moonlight bathing him from the window. Taki reached out to brush a few strands of hair away from him…he couldn't take his eyes of those soft lips, which were slightly opened.
Involuntarily, Taki bent forward and lightly brushed those lips against Tatsuha's. The boy moaned softly, jerking Taki from his reverie. Taki took a few steps backward wondering what the hell he was doing. Without a backward glance he slipped out of the room and almost ran into his own. He collapsed on the bed, panting slightly. Suddenly the image of Tatsuha lying on the bed erect came into his mind. Taki founds himself getting hard, as more erotic images of Tatsuha under him, flushed and moaning started to appear randomly. Slipping his hand into the waistband of his pajamas he began to stroke himself lightly, imagining it was Tatsuha doing this to him. Keeping a firm grip on his lip with his teeth, so that no noise would escape him, he began to stroke faster and faster until he came in quick hard spurts.
After lying there for a while feeling in no way relaxed, Taki decided to tae a few sleeping pills. At least he could ensure a good nights rest that way.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tatsuha awoke around noon on Sunday. He realized to his surprise that Taki hadn't woken up yet. Deciding to make some lunch for himself and his roommate, he looked into the refrigerator. It was bare of food. At last he found some chicken sausages in the freezer. Tatsuha was always good at working with whatever he had.
He whipped up some white sauce and added cut sausage bits to it. Then he mixed it up with some rice and added oregano. Then he made some garlic butter for the garlic bread. He finished in an hour and then set the table wondering whether to go and wake Taki up. Speaking of the devil. Taki wandered in looking a little woozy. He frowned and looked at Tatsuha…
"Did you make this?"
Tatsuha nodded. "Yeah. I know what you're going to say, but it was no biggie. I made it out of what we had left. And if you ask about take out…I decided that we have enough money problems right now, we don't need to buy anything else when I can cook a perfectly good meal."
Taki just nodded with a smile, which was unusual for him. He took a few bites and then looked at the dark haired boy. "So shall we go to the club tonight? After all you did say you had no homework and we haven't got anything else to do today."
Tatsuha nodded. "I'm game for it. But um…how will they let me in? They will want id right? I'm only eighteen…"
Taki grinned. "Believe me if I'm around I'll get you in. plus the bouncers know me! Don't you worry about that!" he turned his attention back to the simple but yummy food. They finished and Taki offered to clean up.
Just as Taki finished putting the last plate away, the doorbell rang. Taki decided to let Tatsuha get it. He heard voices and stepped out of the kitchen to get swamped in a hug.
"Taki, dude! It's been too long. You've never bothered to get in touch with us since he showed up man!" Ma yelled into Taki's ear.
Taki irritably pushed him away. "I thought I told you that I'll meet you tomorrow. What the hell did you show up for now?"
Ma chuckled. "Yes, I love the welcome your giving me Taki! I can see just why I missed you…" he turned to Tatsuha who was watching them with a smile. "so you're Tatsuha! I must say thanks a lot dude! You're really helping us out here…"
Tatsuha smiled a little wider. "What can I say? I had to help otherwise, Taki's 'I am such a grumpy little asshole' attitude would have driven me up a wall! And then again, if I didn't help you guys, some of my fan club would have killed me!"
Ken flopped down onto the couch. "Fan club?"
Taki grinned. "Yes Tatsuha has a fan club; he must've dated every girl in the university in a span of two weeks! I'm surprised they don't just dump him, the way he flirts around!"
Tatsuha threw an arm around the singer. "They don't because I'm hot and sensitive. You're just jealous that I have so many girls after me and you cant have me all to yourself…" he smiled at the singer seductively. "After all, I am taking very good care of you, ne Taki?"
Taki blushed and shrugged the younger boys arm off. "Like I'd like a little snot nosed Nittle grasper fan boy like you! Get off me moron!"
Ma and ken watched the exchange silently. They had never seen Taki blush, not after he had turned thirteen anyway. Ma raised an eyebrow slightly; it seemed Taki-kun was developing an interest in this good looking, easy going college boy.
The day went by fast, Ma and ken decided to join them on their club expedition. Taki and Tatsuha disappeared to change, while Ma and ken promised to be back in twenty minutes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taki sipped his martini; he couldn't take his eyes off the boy who was moving sinuously on the dance floor. Hardly had they entered than Tatsuha had picked up a pretty brunette. Then the brunette's friend had shown up and Tatsuha was getting sandwiched by both the women. Tatsuha's leather pants defined his slim figure, perfectly. He could see the muscles ripple at the kid's every movement.
As the song ended, Tatsuha walked up to them with a grin on his face. "That was fun. Oi, Taki, aren't you going to dance? Ma's already on the floor." He turned to ken and smiled. "Ken, one of my lady friends wants to know if you'd like to dance."
As ken went of with said lady friend, Tatsuha sank down next to Taki. "You're acting like such a prissy boy…come on dance, why don't you…"
Taki just gave him an annoyed look and continued to slip his drink. Part of him was happy that Tatsuha was sitting there next to him and part of him was feeling grumpy that he couldn't watch the sexy boy dance. He got a little lost in his musing, when he felt to strong hands tug at him. Before he knew it, he was on the dance floor, dancing with a triumphant Tatsuha. Taki looked at the boy, frustrated. He hadn't even had time to finish his drink or set it down; he downed it and dumped his glass on the tray of a passing waiter. The alcohol burned his throat, Taki started to feel a little light headed. He decided to give in to the younger boy and dance.
Tatsuha suddenly stopped dancing and looked at Taki. He had had no idea that the man was such a good dancer. Taki's moves were graceful, even when he was doing the craziest steps. The man didn't seem to realize that most of the people had stopped and were watching him. 'Shining collection' was playing…it was Taki's favorite NG song. He started singing as he danced, whipping out a few cool moves. Tatsuha watched entranced, of course Taki was nowhere near Ryuichi's level, but then no one was. Tatsuha realized exactly why Yuuko and the other liked the ASK singer. With one last move Taki finished and looked around. Then he looked at Tatsuha giving him a last grin and going off towards the bar.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Tatsuha grunted as he tried to get the intoxicated Taki into the apartment. Ma had been nice enough to give them a lift. Taki was really smashed. He kept grinning and thanking Tatsuha for all his help. Tatsuha leaned the man against the wall as he opened the door and then dragged the older man in. the singer smiled at him goofily.
"Ne…Tatsuha-kun, do you think Kumagoroo really talks? I always wanted a talking bunny, but then no one would give me one." Taki blabbered, crunching up his face.
Tatsuha nodded. "It's ok Taki, if you really want it in the morning I'll get you one then ok?"
Taki looked a little doubtful before brightening up. "Ta-kun?" Tatsuha looked up wondering when the singer had given him a nickname. "Have you been in love?"
Tatsuha wondered where this conversation was heading, but assured himself that the singer would be out cold in a few minutes. "Yes, Taki, I have. I told you about Sakuma Ryuichi…"
Taki smiled again and patted Tatsuha's cheek. "No I don't mean that kind of love Ta-kun. You know how love is supposed to be happy?" he waited for Tatsuha to nod and then continued. "I've been in love, but then it was just painful…I can't remember the happy memories…"
Tatsuha finally got Taki into bed, but couldn't help feeling curious about what Taki was saying. He looked up to see a very pained expression on Taki's face. "He looked a lot like you…Ta-kun…and you know what I did?"
He seemed to stop there. Tatsuha smiled a little gently. "What did you do Taki?"
The singer giggled, but it was not a happy one. "I thought it was all real, Tatsuha…I actually believed that it was all real!" he started to laugh a little hysterically now.
Tatsuha instinctively hugged him. "Hey, Taki it's fine. People make mistakes and whoever hurt, he's just a jerk ok?" he patted the singers back crooning.
Suddenly Taki wrenched out of his grip and stared at him, nose to nose. Tatsuha could smell the alcohol on his breath. "He looked a lot like you…." Nothing prepared him for what happened next. Taki's lips descending on his kissing him with bruising force. Tatsuha tried to struggle, but found himself kissing back instead. And then I stopped just as suddenly. Tatsuha panted slightly wondering what had gone wrong, when he saw that Taki had slumped back on to his bed, out cold.
Tatsuha smiled a little. He tucked the man up, slipping into his own room once that was done. Sliding under his blue blanket Tatsuha wonder who the man Taki was talking about was and what exactly had happened.
