The Date That Never Was

"YUKI! Yuki wake up!" Shuichi whined, pulling on the blonde's arm.

"I'm up Brat, see?" Yuki replied, slowly opening his eyes.

Shuichi was grinning like a maniac. "Yuki, guess what."

"Hm?" Yuki asked half heartedly.

"Guess!" Shuichi complained.

Yuki sighed. "Hiro and Seguichi forced you out of your tent because you were being too irritating."

"No! We have our date today! DATE! DATE! DATE!" Shuichi sang.

"Ah, how could I have ever forgotten?" said Yuki sarcastically.

"You forgot? YUKI! That's so mean! How could you forget our big, important date?" whined Shuichi, eyes brimming with tears.

"No, I didn't forget, you idiot. And just how is this date 'big' and 'important'? It's just a fucking date."

"But Yuukii, it's a date with you. Any date with my Yuki is big and important," said Shuichi confidently.

Yuki looked at Shuichi quizzically, "You're hopeless."

"Come on Yuki, hurry up. I want to take a walk around that lake we passed."

"Hm? Alright, whatever you want," Yuki replied.

"So," started Shuichi, " how was your night with Tohma?"

"Awful," Yuki said, irritation on his face, "Tohma snores."

"I-" Shuichi began, before Yuki interrupted him.

"And I had to sleep in the same bed as that moron," Yuki continued.

"You-you slept in the same bed?" Shuichi asked, eyes tearing.

"Not that I wanted to. That idiot, what's he thinking?" Yuki said, on a mini-rant.

"But…You slept in the same bed as another man?" Shuichi asked, clearly hurt.

"I'm not gay, Shuichi. Nothing happened, you complete moron," Yuki said, defending himself.

"You are too gay!" shouted Shuichi, "If you aren't, then explain why we're together!"

"I thought that would have been obvious," Yuki said arrogantly, "I'm only gay for you."

"Oh, Yuki," Shuichi began, crying again, "That's so sweet!"

Shuichi plowed toward his lover with his arms outstretched, ready to give him a hug.

"Don't touch me," Yuki ordered, extending his right arm so that Shuichi charged right into his fist.

"Yuki! That really hurt! Why'd you have to go and do that, huh?" Shuichi complained, "I wanted a hug!"

"Oh…sorry. It's just reflexes I guess," Yuki apologized, opening up his arms.

"Well…do you want a hug or not?" Yuki asked Shuichi's shocked expression, "If you don't then I'm getting out of this ridiculous postion."

Yuki didn't know who the hell first thought that hugging was a good idea but he really wanted to shot them. Unfortunately he had said that whatever Shuichi wanted to do he would do, so he was forced by his own words to comply.

"Yuki!" Shuichi sniffed, "You're like…the sweetest boyfriend every! You look so cute in that position! Stay right there! I have to get a camera so I can have this moment forever."

"Shuichi! Goddammit!" Yuki shouted to a retreating Shuichi.

Of course Yuki felt absurd, who wouldn't? Here he was, arms opened widely, for what seemed like nobody. Nevertheless he stayed where he was, what Shuichi said was a demand, therefore he had to submit, just like he said he would. Regrettably, things got a lot worse before Shuichi could return.

Yuki?" Tohma asked excitedly, coming up to him.

"What do you want?" Yuki asked in an annoyed way, "I've got better things to do than listen to you."

"Well…" Tohma began, "you look like you need a hug. Or maybe you're expecting one? Either way I've come to give you just that."

"I don't want-" Yuki began, but he was cut off by Tohma's bear hug.

"Get the fuck off me!" Yuki said, barely breathing.

Tohma just pushed him to the ground, seemingly ignoring him.

"Tohma!" Yuki struggled, "…Can't…breathe…"

"Yuki!" Shuichi screamed, coming up behind the pair who were now rolling around on the ground. "Yuki, you're turning blue!"

"Get…off…"Yuki barely said.

"Tohma! Get off! Get off! You're going to kill him!" Shuichi demanded.

Touma was slowly pulled off of Yuki with the help of Shuichi.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Yuki roared at Touma, "What made you think that'd be a good idea?"

"You just looked too adorable," Tohma explained, "I had to do it."

"I need a cigarette," Yuki mumbled as he got up from the ground and stomped off.

"Yuki! I'm sorry!" Tohma shouted, running after him, "Please forgive me!"

"W-w-wait!" Shuichi shouted, feeling left out, "Yuki! What about our date?"


"So what do you think this is all about?" Hiro asked his bandmate Suguru.

"Hm…not sure, but nothing good will come from this unless it favors Tohma, I know that much," Suguru replied.

"I had that much figured out already. What I'd really like to know is how you think it'll effect Shuichi," Hiro answered back.

"Hm…" Suguru said again, "It depends on what his exact plans are, and I'm not cetain of those."

"But you have an idea right?" Hiro asked, concern for Shuichi dripping off his question.

Suguru was silent for a minute. "Obviously it has something to do with Yuki-san, seeing as he came with us even though he's not in the band. Unfortunately I have no idea of his plans and if they'll help or hurt Shuichi-san."

"So you're as in-the-dark about it as me then?" Hiro asked disappointedly, "That's too bad, I was hoping you could enlighten at least a little."

"Sorry Hiro-san, Tohma doesn't tell me anything," Suguru apologized.

"Not your fault, I suppose, I just hoped to lessen any pain that will come Shuichi's way during this trip," Hirp explained, "I have no doubt nothing about this vacation will do him any good."


"Tohma," Yuki stated uncaringly, coming upon his longtime friend (if you could call him that, he was more of an annoyance).

"Yuki," Tohma replied back pleasantly.

"Just what are you planning?" Yuki asked him.

"Nothing."

"I like Shuichi a lot," said Yuki, staring ahead at nothing, "Even if I don't act like it, I do."

"I know Yuki," Tohma replied back calmly.

"I don't want anything hurting him, emotionally or physically," Yuki continued.

Then he finally looked at Tohma. "If your plans are anything about splitting Shuichi and me up, then know that I'll make sure to cut you completely off from my life, brother-in-law, or not."

"I know you're happy," Tohma replied, no hesitantion in his voice, "and that makes me sad sometimes. To know that you get so much pleasure out of someone that isn't me…but things can never be the same between us can they?"

"The past is over," Yuki said, continuing where Tohma left off, "You have a wife, I have a boyfriend, and we're both reasonably happy. Why dwell on a past that can't change?"

"Just musing over what could be," Tohma explained, "You were always my first choice…I can't help being jealous." Tohma laughed and his mouth smiled happily while his eyes frowned, "Guess that makes me rather pathetic, right? I'm not surprised at your disgust."

"Not disgust," Yuki contradicted, "just annoyance. You need to move on. You're more in the past than I am."

"Mm…That's true," said Tohma, his face never changing from his previous expression, "I can't help it though. You were and are the one thing I can't bear to give myself."

Yuki just stared.

"You couldn't handle me. I'm more obsessed with you than Shuichi is, I just have a better grasp on it," continued Tohma, finally allowing his smile to drift off his face.

"Hm, guess I just have that effect on people. I'm addictive," Yuki said, trying to lighten the mood.

"Yeah," Tohma joked back, "It must get rather annoying."

"But really…" Yuki mused, clearly lost in thought, "What would things have been like if Yuki never existed? Would I be happier? Would I have found Shuichi?"

"Could we have ever gotten together?" Tohma asked, "Pointless questions, I suppose."

"Hm," Yuki replied, nodding in agreement.

"So I definitely ruined your date," Tohma said in an apologizing manner.

"Shuichi'll get over it, it's not that bad," Yuki said as a way of forgiving Tohma.

"Well, go apoligize to him for me," ordered Tohma, stretching and turning to walk off.

"Hm-mm," Yuki replied turning to walk the other way.

Or what if Shuichi wasn't here any more? What would happen between us then, Eiri? Tohma thought to himself.


"Yuki's cheating on me, Hiro!" Shuichi screamed at his bandmate and longtime friend, shooting into his arms.

"I'm sure it's a misunderstanding," Hiro replied calmly, "What happened?"

"I left…on my date with Yuki…to get a camera…and….and when I came back…he was…he was all over my Yuki on the ground!" Shuichi shouted, freely crying.

"Who? Not Tohma?" Hiro asked anxiously.

"Yes!" Shuichi burst out, "What do I do Hiro? Yuki really is in love with Tohm!"

"We'll sort this all out," Hiro promised, jumping quickly to his friend's side, "We'll make that bastard pay."

"You're both assuming the illogical," Suguru said calmly.

"And how do you know?" Shuichi asked, still sobbing on his best friend's shoulder.

Suguru sighed at both his bandmates stupidity, "Yuki doesn't like Tohma, it's quite obvious. While Tohma is obsessed with Yuki, Yuki would want nothing more than to be rid of him. Further more, Tohma is married to Yuki's sister and loves her very dearly. Even if Tohma does love Yuki, he wouldn't jeoperdize his relationship with Mika so abruptly."

"It's reassuring to know this band isn't completely made up of absolute idiots," Yuki said approvingly, coming up from behind them.

"Yuki! What about our date?" Shuichi said, running up to the writer and huggin him, "You ran off in the middle you cheater."

"I wasn't aware you could cheat on a date," Yuki replied indifferently.

Shuichi had sompletely forgotten that he was supposed to be mad.

"Shuichi…" Hiro began, it was up to him to remind his friend that he was expected to be angry.

"Besides," Yuki interrupted, "Tohma wants you to do shit of some kind or another to advertise for Bad Luck, so we can't really pick it up right now."

"Oh…" Shuichi said, disappointed.

"We'll do it some other time though," Yuki promised, "Before we go home."

"Alright!" agreed Shuichi, brightening up, "Let's go guys! Tohma needs us!"


To be continued...again
Alright, this posting went up pretty fast. Amazingly fast actually, but that's just because I couldn't sleep so I worked on this story until about 4:00 in the morning (I'm an insomniac). Um...I plan on reposting...probably the fourth (of October, which is Wednesday) if I don't I'll definitely have chapter three up by Thursday.

I haven't really decided who ends up with whom. I actually have multiple outlines in my head for different resulting couples. It pretty much depends on what the majority says (whether I go with it or not I haven't decided either...it depends on whether I like you or not) so tell me what you want the end couple to be, since it'll help with my indecisiveness.

Also notice I changed the rating...sorry about that, but I think it's more suitable...especially for what i have planned in later chapters. So if you had trouble finding ths story again, I'm sorry and shit.

Until next time bitches.
