"You're an idiot you know that." After the maid, Kanna had arrived, Ryo and Sesshomaru made their way back to the hotel. It was already getting late and Sesshomaru knew how Asaka gets when he would always be late for little things such as the hot springs.

"You're always saying the same things Ryo. For once I would like you to say something positive."

"Yeah right. There's nothing positive about you instead for your kids but other than that you are just an ass." He crossed his arms, strolling along side Sesshomaru who just smiled at his childish ways. His pouting lip, His glimmering eyes full of anger, even his furrowed brows, Ryo acted like his children in every way. Ryo did always give a subtle smile toward Sesshomaru but it was a smile nonetheless.

"Try and look at me." Sesshomaru said, breaking the silence.

"What?"

"I said look at me."

Turning a corner that led to the Hotel, Ryo shook his head. "What for?"

"Stop being stubborn and look at me."

Ryo didn't know what Sesshomaru's intention was and he wasn't going to find out. He faced forward; ignore the glare that he received for not listening to his orders.

"As if. No way am I going to look at your ugly, disgusting face so deal with it." It was kind of strange that Sesshomaru didn't attempt to grab him by the arm or anything like that. Sesshomaru was just so calm about, or it seemed that way because Ryo refused to look at his expression. Whether he was angry or just calm, he really didn't know but walked ahead, trying to pick up his pace.

"What are you doing?" His golden eyes followed the shrimp as he walked inch by inch away from him. Ryo was trying to conceal his movements but it couldn't go past Sesshomaru's keen eyes.

"Let me go." Even with people passing them, Sesshomaru stopped Ryo in place, pressing his back up against the wall. Sesshomaru always had to have everything his way, the positioning of Ryo's arms that were held tightly above his head, the location of his body pressed against his chest and the point where his face was forcefully pulled up to face intense golden eyes. Sesshomaru had him in his grasp and whether who was watching he trailed his lips onto Ryo's warm neck.

The rose cheeks that grew immensely red was noticed when Sesshomaru pulled away from his neck. He laughed but continued with his passionate kisses. From his chest to his neck, to his chin to his lips, Ryo wasn't to please but he reacted. He moved with his deep kisses and opened his mouth to let his tongue enter but nothing was felt.

Dry kisses were all he received from Sesshomaru and he immediately knew what he wanted. The loosening of his arms was a hint that Ryo had to do everything his self. It wasn't because he loved this rude man or did he like these passionate affections…he didn't know what it was but Ryo's arms wrapped around the man so tightly that he didn't want to let him go.

I can't love him. Ryo thought but these thoughts didn't react with any of his actions. Once Sesshomaru slightly departed his lips Ryo practical lunged his tongue in the man's mouth, tasting Sesshomaru's sweet affection that he displayed before him. Maybe because it wasn't so forceful this time but it got to him and hit him like a ton of bricks. He was aroused by Sesshomaru and wanted him so much that Ryo's hands found its way under his shirt, touching the warmth of his skin.

Departing his lips, a smile was seen on Sesshomaru's face. "I knew you loved me Ryo-chan."

The whole mood change, once Ryo flung his arms out and pushed Sesshomaru away he wiped his mouth. He was such an idiot to even get caught up with these emotions. The plan was to beat Linear lights one way or another but not fall in love with their lyrists. It was so disgusting, it felt like he was betraying Rapture, his own band mates and him self.

"What's wrong Ryo? Change of heart." Sesshomaru said with a please tone.

"Shut the hell up. I'm-" A noticeable ring tone interrupted her but it wasn't in her pocket. Ryo patted down his pants once again. It was gone, he still heard the ring phone but it was gone.

"Look for this?" The pink phone in his hands was definitely his, with its girly ring tone and it's girly color, it was undoubtedly his. "You were so focused on me that you didn't even notice I took your phone." Ring after ring, Ryo was on the edge to answer it. His eyes were fixed on the phone than Sesshomaru's words and he didn't fail to notice that. So he flung the phone on to the road, tires ending the ring tone as it shred to pieces.

"You bastard! Why did you-"

"You shouldn't be focused on inanimate objects but be more focused on your current situation."

"That was my only phone you stupid shit head."

"Stupid shit head. Now that's new." Sesshomaru sighed, making his way toward the angered boy. Ryo would have run away crying just like last time but he stood in place. He was as confident as ever before so when Sesshomaru approached him, Ryo's fingers wrapped around the man's tie and pulled him down to face him. He was short so it wasn't a pretty picture to see, it looked like he was pulling Sesshomaru in for a kiss but he stopped him inches away from his face.

"Give me back my watch."

"Your watch. Hmmm. It's been a while since you asked me for that thing. I almost forgot all about it. Well your watch is safe and sound so you wouldn't need to worry yourself about it little shrimp." His hand wrapped around his wrist like lightening. Ryo didn't see it coming but he was forced to let his tie go. The painful squeeze brought him to his knees causing his eyes to shut tightly.

"Let me go. Shit."

"I own you Ryo. Or should I say Kagome." His eyes shot open. Did he hear right or was his mind playing tricks on him. The grip around his wrist had set him free. Sesshomaru just watched Ryo as he got up slowly, the same look of shock placed on his face.

"What did you say?"

Turning away and making his way through the crowd he looked over his shoulder. That smile that only could mean he knew something stricken Ryo with fear. Was he just guessing, was he just playing with his head or did he really know the truth? There was no way he could have found out, there was no way in hell that he could have known.

"Are you coming Ryo or are you just going to stand there?"

"Do you know?"

"Do I know what?"

"Don't act so stupid, do you know?" Sesshomaru shrugged, giving that smile once again.

Ryo walked up to him, keeping a close eye on that smile. He wasn't sure but he wasn't going to ask any further questions. Ryo was not much of a thinker; he was quite dense but that pleased Sesshomaru. Even with the most obvious hint right in front of him, Ryo still didn't suspect anything so Sesshomaru left it at that.

"You want to know something?" Sesshomaru inquired.

"What?"

"You would look cute with a dress on."

Ryo cringed. "Are you stupid or something? Do I need to knock some sense into you? Why don't you just glare at me and leave it at that. I hate when you smile at me, it's creepy."

Finally getting to the hotel and through the lobby, Sesshomaru and Ryo waited patiently for the elevator.

"Why don't you just admit that you love me?"

"Because I don't." A ping of an elevator and the opening of door revealed a smiling Asaka. Sesshomaru and Ryo gave a look at the awkward smile on Asaka's face. They tried to go into the elevator but Asaka refused, pushing the two men back into the lobby and leading them outside once again.

"What are you doing Asaka?" Ryo, puzzled by Asaka's actions was trying to get out of his grasp. It was easy for Sesshomaru to shrug Asaka away but it didn't matter. The only thing that was in Asaka's mind was to get Ryo out of the hotel.

"It's time to spend time together." He said cheerfully.

"Asaka I'm tired. Come on let's just spend time another day." Ryo maneuvered his self to the side and with a little effort, got out of his grasp and went back in the lobby. Sesshomaru was gone by the time Ryo was set free but it didn't bother him at all.

"Ryo don't go!" Sprinting at this point, Ryo ignored the elevator and up the stairs, Asaka following close behind. His legs throbbed with pain, she was at the 10th level but Asaka was catching up fast. He had a lot of energy compared to Ryo who just wanted to fall right about now.

The number 13 was a blessing to see. She hurdled through the door and down the hall, she looked back to see if Asaka was still following but he wasn't there. He blew him off, he felt bad but damn, he was tired as it is and all he wanted was to lie on the bed and sleep through the day. Turning to look forward, she immediately bumped into someone. His ass hurt so badly once it hit the ground but he took it like a man, standing up and dusting his self off.

"Kagome. I'm glade you're here. You took a while."

"Bankotsu." To make her day even worse he had to see that bastard again. The smug of a smirk was terrifying. She curled her hand into a fist, trying to prevent his self from trembling.

"You're quite surprised to see me."

"Well, I thought you were at Tokyo."

"I was but when I heard you were here … well let's just say I had a little talk with dad."

"What does dad have to do with this? What did you do!" Ryo walked up to him and attempted to punch his face for no apparent reason but he step to the side, grabbing his arm and swiftly putting him in a headlock.

"I convinced dad to cut your contract. You'll be in my arms again Kagome because you're forced to come with me to America." The arm around his neck, the lips near his ears made everything around them seem to disappear. He was so caught up with fear and his words that nothing around him could catch his attention.

"I-I'm not going. I'm not going."

"You have no choice little sister. You may be old enough but you're still trapped in my arms you got it." Bankotsu kissed his sister's neck before letting him go. As expected Ryo glared at his brother but Bankotsu didn't react with anything but a smile.

It was even worst when Kohaku approached the two men. "Ryo. Your bags have already been pack and a your brother will be driving you to the airport." That was it. He didn't say anything more but turn away and walk off in the other direction. There was no recording session, no dreams, not even an album. Everything was crush before it even started.

"Come on Sister." Grabbed by the arm, he led him down the corridor and into the elevator. Once those double doors closed, everything, her dreams, her career and her whole life were now crushed into a million of hopeless pieces. All her efforts, from the point where she was told that she would never sing again and to the point where she dressed up as a guy, it was all over. Even if they didn't make a record deal, even if they didn't make an album, there was still time but now, that time was up.

"Why are you doing this to me? Why are you-"

"It's hard to explain sister. I'm doing this for your own good."

"My own good. How can you be doing this for my own good? I don't want to go, I want to sing, I want to-"

"You stupid brat!" he turned toward him and slammed his fist into the wall beside his head. Ryo was stunned, almost falling to his knees at the outburst. She stood still, afraid that if he moved, that the fist curled up against the wall would turn on her. "You're not seeing that recording room or Tokyo again you understand me? If it wasn't for music, if it wasn't for this stupid singing career of yours, mom would still be alive."

Those angered eyes were dead serious; he was whisked out of the elevator once the doors opened. For once in her life, she felt guilty. It couldn't' be true though, everything in her life was involved around music and her parents supported her every step of the way. But it made no sense, it made nothing come in mind that her mother's death would be involved with music. There was no possible way.

Shoved in a car he sat there as quiet as a mouse. Ryo didn't move nor did he look at Bankotsu. The once calming, cheerful man was now this person he never seen before. He was always the one to put on a smile even if it was a rather malicious smile but now only a sullen expression appeared on his face as he kept his eyes on the road.

The worse thing about this whole ordeal was that he would never see Sesshomaru again. It would have been a good thing but the pounding of her heart and utter fear of not seeing his face again, clouded his mind. Ryo knew now that what ever he did, what ever he might think of was not going to get him out of this mess.
