// trying to make sense of this puzzle
but feeling like the pieces are scattered all around this room
climbing the fence of my trouble
falling down once again to try and get there soon
oh but could I stand and wait for You
instead of running from this black to find my blue
oh and when will I just listen to the truth
that the pieces of this puzzle just don't fit without You //

A voice giggled as he sat hiding in his messy closet, hiding amongst cloths he wasn't up to giving his mom to clean. He could hear his brother walking around his room, and he just wanted to start laughing, but was doing his bed not to make a sound, even if giggling was considered a sound.

"I wonder where my Yuuta is. He here? Nope. Hm, here? No. Hm, he must be hidden really well." Yuuta's giggling increased as his small mind imagined where his brother was looking. He caught his breath as his brother tugged open the door to the closet. The sound of his brother laughing made him smile. Indeed, Yuuta was a sight. Sitting amongst cloths he chucked into his closet, a pair of underwear on his head and other objects pulled over to make a comfy nest.

"Aniki found me." The toddler toppled out of the closet, caught by his elder brother. The four year old smiled.

"Nee-san is watching us, Kaa-san and Tou-san went out to dinner. What does Yuuta want to eat?" Yuuta blinked, tilting his head to the side.

"Dunno." Syuusuke lead Yuuta out of the room and down the stairs, helping him down step by step. Yumiko was in the kitchen and smiled at her younger brothers.

"I hope you two don't mind noodles. I don't really know how to cook much, Kaa-san has been teaching me, but it's not really ready to be tested by humans." Yumiko joked around, already having started on making noodles. Yuuta pouted but never said a word.

"Hey, Yuuta, let's see what's on tv." This caught Yuuta's attention and he nodded. Both boys took over the couch as they started to flip through tv stations. The first station stopped at was a drama, but at Yuuta's whining, Syuusuke continued on to cartoons, contenting the younger one. He spoiled Yuuta too much, or maybe it was just his way of showing affection.

Dinner seemed to pass by slowly, and hit the panic button when Yuuta caught a long noodle and almost choked trying to swallow it. Syuusuke had been right at his side to him help, Yuuta ended up staring at his noodles for five minutes before eating them when Yumiko commented that he should be eating and not playing with his food.

Yuuta ended up wandering around after dinner with a sippy cup, having yet to graduate to being trusted with a regular cup, especially after spilling his juice all over the couch not long ago. Syuusuke was in his room, putting a puzzle together, and it caught Yuuta's attention.

"It's like a book, if you put pieces together, you can get the story." Yuuta plopped down next to the elder boy and gazed at the pieces.

"I don't see anything." This earned a laugh.

"You need to fit pieces together, but they don't always fit in the places you try to fit them in, but then you'll find that they fit somewhere else. Kinda like the grown ups in dramas." Yuuta seemed to be following, and Syuusuke knew he was when he made a face when he mentioned dramas.

"You mean those ones you watch with Nee-san where the guy goes to sleep and doesn't wake up and then they're all happy when he does?" Fuji nodded.

"Yup. Sometimes those relationships down work, and it's because they weren't the right pieces that matched. But there's someone who's the piece you'll connect to and fit together perfectly. And when all pieces are together, you can see the story that comes with your relationship." Syuusuke sweatdropped, "Or that's atleast how Nee-san explained it to me."

"I wanna find my puzzle piece." Yuuta grabbed a piece and started to try to force it to a part of the puzzle, but was disappointed when it didn't fit. Fuji laughed and placed down the second to last piece to complete the puzzle.

"The last piece is like the last secret between you and another person. You'll be the same person with the same story when your puzzle is complete." Yuuta placed the last puzzle piece in and looked to his brother.

"Does Aniki know who his puzzle piece is?" This made Syuusuke smile.

"No one does, that's what makes it interesting. You have to go out with lots of people till you finally find them. But Nee-san says there's people out there who can fit with you, but some people never find them." Yuuta got up, clutching a tiny fist, his eyes burning with a childish passion.

"I want Aniki to be one of my pieces, so then we can do more puzzles together and play games." Fuji laughed. After all that, Yuuta really didn't understand what he was saying, but it was just too cute.

"I hope so, too, Yuuta."

Yuuta was clinging to Mizuki's arm as they walked through the park, a little freaked out since the movie. Who decided to leave it up to Mizuki to choose a film? Never again, he was never letting Mizuki choose.

"Mizuki-san, did you have to decide on 28 Weeks Later?" Mizuki chuckled.

"Why? Is my Yuuta-kun afraid?" Yuuta stopped dead in his tracks.

"Of course not!" Mizuki laughed at Yuuta quickly defending himself, seeing right through to that Yuuta was indeed afraid. Mizuki's attention was slightly distracted when he noticed another couple who stopped to look at them, a familiar couple, which made his smile grow. Walking over, he tossed an arm around Yuuta's shoulders and dragged him to walk.

"No need to be afraid. I'll protect you. You can sleep with me tonight and you'll be safe." His voice was loud enough for Fuji to hear. The third year seemed to glare daggers at Mizuki's back before being urged to move on by Tezuka.

"No. Yuuta!" Fuji called to his brother, giving a wave when his brother turned around.

"Aniki? What're you doing out?" The younger Fuji asked, the Seishun students walked over to the St Rudolph students.

"Just taking a nice walk with Tezuka here. What about you and Misuki?" Fuji's smile was fake and Yuuta knew it.

"It's Mizuki!" Mizuki snarled.

"We just saw a movie and were heading back to school." Yuuta ignored his brother calling Mizuki by the wrong name, since he was used to it.

"Oh, what movie?" Fuji seemed interested.

"28 Weeks Later. Poor Yuuta is so scared to be alone, but I'm gunna protect him." Mizuki wrapped his arms around Yuuta and pulled him close, smirking at Fuji. Fuji's clear blue eyes rested on the elder St Rudolph boy, threatening him without words.

"Ah, Must've been your choice. Yuuta isn't very good with movies. The Bee Movie would be more like his movie." Yuuta's face flushed red.

"Aniki! I'm not six anymore!" Fuji chuckled.

"Ah, but it's sad you're not coming home this weekend. Or perhaps you did come home and left." Both brother's locked eyes for a second, Yuuta turning on his heels.

"Nope, don't plan on coming home this weekend. I'm spending my time with Mizuki-san." All the boy could hear was Mizuki chuckling in his ear.

"You don't need the san anymore, Yuuta-kun. After all, we are going out now." Yuuta was a little glad his face couldn't be viewed, it was actually more red than when Fuji dragged up that he was afraid of horror movies growing up, even if he tried to act like he was grown up and never wanted to pee in his pants when something scary popped up.

"You found your puzzle piece, I see." Fuji turned to Tezuka, smiling. "Saa, we're gunna miss out on your show if we don't hurry, Tezuka. Have fun, Yuuta." How Yuuta wanted to turn around and yell at his brother, but couldn't find the strength to do so. His brother didn't forget that conversation, but he forgot their promise? Yuuta shook his head after his brother and date were out of sight.

"Interesting. Anyway, Yuuta-kun, we should be getting back soon." Mizuki snapped him out of his thoughts and he nodded, a small dumbfounded look on his face.

"Oh, uh yah." Mizuki drew Yuuta close and kisses him quickly before taking the boy's hand and leading him off.

"So cute with that cute face of your's. You really do have some sides of you that aren't revealed that often. I wonder how many cute faces I can get out of you..." Mizuki went off to ponderland while Yuuta simply followed behind him, face red. He was slightly chewing on his bottom lip, half pondering about his brother with Tezuka and half about Mizuki. The walk back to the school dorms seemed shorter than the walk to the movie theatre. Mizuki and Yuuta paused in the hallway, their rooms right across the hall from each other. Some would think he planned for this to happen, which could exactly be the case.

"Uh, thanks for tonight, Mizuki, I had fun." Yuuta was staring down at the floor, his cheeks slightly tinted pink. He wasn't exactly used to thanking someone for something like a date. Mizuki, like his usual composure would suggest, brushes it right off as if it was nothing out of the ordinary.

"It was no problem at all, it was my pleasure. If you get scared, then feel free to wake me up." He cupped Yuuta's chin and kissed him gently on the lips, drawing back after a minute to chuckle and enter his room. Yuuta shuffled into his own, faced with darkness. A shudder ran down his spine as he turned the light on and dropped onto his bed, kicking off his shoes.

"Aniki... He's your puzzle piece isn't he. Maybe I'm not a match at all, with Mizuki as one of mine, but what about everything else you told me?" Yuuta tugged his phone out of his pocket and set it on the pillow beside him. A minute passed as he stared at it, the sudden sound causing him to jump. He flipped it open and placed it right to his ear.

"Yuuta?" The said boy blinked.

"Why're you calling so late, Aniki?" Yuuta tried his best to sound annoyed, but wasn't.

"Ah, simply figured you'd still be up." Yuuta was now sitting cross-legged on his bed.

"Something on your mind? You never call unless you feel like going off on a rant, or make conversation." His words earned a chuckle from the other side, he knew that he had been right.

"You're dating him, are you?" Yuuta nodded to no one.

"Yah, just as you're dating Tezuka."

"Saa..Say, did you really not stop home yesterday? It's fine if you did." Yuuta almost dropped his phone, his voice caught in his throat.

"I told you-"

"You're still my number one, Yuuta." Yuuta's eye twitched.

"He's your number one! You would let him touch you like that and then claim I'm still more important than him! You make me sick! Don't call me again!" Yuuta yelled before hanging up. He restrained from chucking his phone violently at the wall. Instead, he broke down in a fit of tears, dropping his phone to restrain back the emotions leaking out. His phone than began to ring again, alerting him of a text message.

I'll always be here when you want to talk.

How Aniki like, but this time...Yuuta wasn't going to try and repair things like after his defeat with Ryoma, where slowly he had started to try and repair things with Fuji. This was different, this wasn't tennis, this was his life. His life which was slowly suffocating him. He didn't want a text or a call, he wanted to see his brother, see him as he spoke.

His phone going off again caused Yuuta to curse under his breath and flip it open to read the text.

Your book isn't finished, there will always be one piece missing; me.

Pieces are coming together, but Fuji claims that he'll be the missing piece to Yuuta's puzzle. What will happen now? With school advancing and holidays to come, how will the Fuji family take an unexpected twist of events that cause conflict within the household? Find out next chapter.
