Chapter 2: And the secret spills

Kikumaru Eiji moaned once again as he flipped through a file. However, he's attention wasn't on the paperwork in front of him. It was on the black haired woman who was sitting in the corner reading some file and every once and a while looking over at him and smirking ever so discreetly. He sighed, deciding she was up to something but he wanted to know what.

And he didn't have to wait long to find out. A sudden slamming noise came, followed by stomps. Eyes widened, Eiji jumped out of his seat when he saw a very pissed looking Sanada slam his office door open. "Kikumaru," he glared.

"Sanada, what are you doing here?" Eiji asked but was answered with a back slap. "What the hell was that for?!"

"How dare you tell that brat?!" Sanada shook the red head by the collar. Over by the door, Rin fell out of her chair, laughing.

Moments later, a black haired young man ran in, "Are you okay? I heard stomps and Sanada, what are-"

He wasn't able to finish because the next thing he knew he was back slapped by the fuming Sanada. "KIRIHARA! DON'T YOU DARE TELL ANYONE ABOUT MY ENGAGEMENT!"

"If you don't want him to tell anyone, then why did you just tell him?" Eiji questioned, rubbing his cheek.

"I thought you were going to tell him!" Sanada accused, dropping the younger boy.

"Oww," Kirihara moaned.

"I wasn't going to tell anyone. I value my life, thank you very much," Eiji crossed his arms.

"Rin," Sanada and Eiji suddenly realized.

"Where is she?" Sanada asked, angrily.

"She was just here," Eiji looked around. The black haired woman was no where to be seen. Seeing this, Sanada stormed off.

Just as he had left, Rin appeared at the door that led to the balcony of the office. Sometime during the fight she had snuck off and hid on the balcony. "That was fun, right, Eiji? That's what you get for kidnapping me and then leaving my in the middle of no where!"

"Fine, we're even," Eiji replied, his eyes moving towards Akaya who was slumped on the floor. "Yo, Akaya, you okay?" After receiving no answer, he asked again, "You okay?"

"Don't bother, he's knocked out," Rin observed.

"So why did you stick around?" Eiji asked. "Normally, you would run away as fast as you could before Sanada figured out it was your fault. Then the rubbing in would come the next day."

"Yeah, well, I thought it would be best to hide this time. Sanada's really pissed. And when he's really angry it's hard to run from him," Rin explained. "Plus I need you to do something for me."

The last part was said so seriously that Eiji immediately agreed. "Anything."

"Keep an eye on Niou for me, okay?" Rin replied before giving a quick wave and leaving, careful no to step on Kirihara.

"I wonder why?" Eiji questioned himself.

Hana couldn't help but smile as she looked through the thick wedding catalogs she bought on the way to Sanada's apartment. She lifted her head to find Sanada standing in front of her, drying his hair with a towel. He had told her the whole story of the Eiji/Akaya/ Rin ordeal and then went to take a long shower to cool off.

"Don't worry, dear," Hana smiled at him. "I called Reina and told her about what happened. She said she would make sure that Akaya wouldn't tell a soul. Then I called Rin and she apologized for what had happened. She only meant it to get back at Eiji. She never dreamed that you would explode like that."

"Pft," Sanada scoffed. However, whenever Rin did something like the stunt that she pulled today, Sanada always forgave her. She had grown up with him and she was like a little sister to him although she was the same age. Her actions made the little part. They were always close and stuck out for each other. Although Rin was always saying how she didn't like Hana and Sanada together, she was the one who paired them up in the first place.

"I'm going shopping with the girls for a wedding dress tomorrow," Hana added, digging her head back into the magazines.

"Already?" Sanada raised an eyebrow. She sure was eager to get started.

"You know how impatient they are," Hana grinned as she stood up and pecked him on the cheek. Grabbing her coat, she exited the apartment. That also when Sanada's phone rang.

Sanada rushed over to his best friend's house as quick as possible when the blunette said it was an emergency. Panting, he rang the doorbell of his large apartment. What he saw when he opened the door wasn't what he was expecting.

There stood Yukimura Seiichi in the door way, smiling like there was nothing going on and that he hadn't just called his friend telling him to get over there as soon as possible.

"Yukimura, what did you need me for?" Sanada questioned as he entered the apartment and allowed himself to be lead to the living room where he found the rest of his former team.

"Well, you see, it just slipped out of my mouth," Yukimura smiled like he hadn't done anything wrong.

"And now they all know?!" Sanada face palmed. That was the last time he ever was trusting Yukimura with something secret and important. He glanced at his friends, miserably, waiting for the annoying jokes. He was shocked to find that the ring leader was down.

"Congratulations," Niou offered a weak smile. "I bet you'll be really happy. I know I was."

It came to shock to all of them that of all of them Niou was the first to get married. And it shocked them even more that he was still with his wife. Apparently, the time he spent with her made him lose his playboy attitude.

"Thanks," Sanada stuttered, he was entirely shocked at the former trickster's behavior and mood. "Yagyuu, can I see you in the kitchen for a minute."

The Gentleman nodded and followed Sanada into the kitchen, Yukimura followed as well.

"Is this about Niou?" Yagyuu guessed, pushing his glasses up. Sanada nodded.

"He's been having a hard time controlling the company," Yukimura explained, but the tone in his voice said that he didn't believe that, "Or so he says."

"So what is it really?" Sanada asked. Although he always said he detested the annoying attitude of Niou, he cared about his friends and kind of missed the old trickster.

"I have no idea," Yagyuu replied. "I'm still trying to find out. Marui and Jackel have both tried without any luck. Yanagi has no clue and Akaya has tried everything he can."

Sanada twitched slightly, why did this have to happen just when he was going to get married?
