Rage on

Chapter 2


Makoto groaned.

Why did he agree to do two shows back to back?

The sun was too bright for 7:30 am.

The persona of Tachi Tempei was a tough one to juggle. Keeping his secret was getting harder to do with the success of Free!. Clubs all over the town wanted him to perform but the sleepless nights were starting to take their toll.

Tachibana looked around the classroom. No sign of Haruka anywhere.

Haru

Makoto let his head drop onto the desk.

Dammit Haruka looked so good last night. It took everything in him up on that stage last night to look away and concentrate on the music. He wanted to suck on those lips Nanase was biting down on. Hell, he's wanted to suck on some other things for a couple of years now too. But Haru would never see him in that light. Not him. Not Makoto Tachbana. He was a quiet big brother figure; reliable, sweet, kind and gentle. Not the person he became when he took the stage; raw and full of passion.

Makoto leaned off the desk and slouched back on his chair.

Now that he thought about it, what was he even doing there? He remembered hearing what sounded like Nagisa just before the show but dismissed the idea. The blond was underage anyway and The Split always carded. But yet there they were. And there was Haruka. Did he recognize him? The last thing he wanted was for his classmates to find out what he did on the side. He knew it would destroy the sweet persona of himself he took so many years to build. Everyone could trust him.

His manager thought that dying his hair would be enough but maybe he should invest in some contacts?

Pulling at a strand of his hair Makoto sighed. Was it all really worth it?

Haruka stopped mid step entering the classroom. Makoto sat quietly at his desk playing with the ends of his lush brown hair, his demeanor loose but tense.

Ha

Tachi Tempei my ass.

Out of the corner of his eye Makoto spots Haruka making his way to his seat at the back of the class. But then, he changes direction and heads straight to Tachibana's seat to stop directly in front of him.

Ohgodohgodohgodohgod

Haruka's grip on his bag tightens as he glares at Makoto; too long for comfort.

"Where were you last night."

The question sounded more like a statement than anything else.

Makoto smiled, mask settling in place, "Out with Ren. His classmate had a birthday party and I had to take him there. Kind of a lame way to spend the evening right?"

He ended the response with his trademark smile and a tilt of his head off to the side.

Makoto Tachibana never lied.

But today Haruka was having none of it.

With that flat tone of his, Nanase continued his interrogation. "I called your cellphone. Why did it go straight to voice-mail?"

"The battery di-"

"I called your house and your brother was home."

Shit

Makoto sat up straight at this point, not breaking character but quickly loosing it on the inside. He should have expected this from Haru after last night but calling his house? That was something he'd never do! Being so closed off to people conversations were limited so a house call was an absolute rarity.

"Oh yeah?" Makoto fumbled for the slightest of seconds but quickly got a hold of himself, "He was fast asleep when I brought him home. What time did you call?"

The question brought a stillness across Haruka's face.

The brunette looked up at him with a gentle smile. He'd been doing this for long enough.

He knew when he won.

Haruka gripped the strap on his shoulder even tighter and looked away. Embarrassed he mumbled a hurried 'never mind' and stormed off to his desk.

This was so stupid. Why did he even believe for a second what Nagisa had said about Tachi Tempei being Makoto? It was obviously not him. When he called last night his mother had told him that Makoto took his brother to the party but he could swear that he heard the sound of laughter in the distance from Ren himself! Was she talking in past sense? Did they come back? He couldn't bring it in himself to question it further and hung up the phone in a rush.

But now he just wanted to be done with it all and forget last night ever happened.

Makoto paled. He didn't mean to upset him. Not this much at least. He needed to apologize.

Tachbana called after him. "Haru look, I'm-"

But he didn't even offer a response. Just kept his head down to get to his seat.

"Haruka!"

Nanase froze.

His body refused to listen to anything his mind was shouting at him right now.

The command in that voice told him to stop. And he was going to listen to it.

Stepping up behind him, Makoto leaned into his frame and spoke directly into his ear.

The hands on his shoulders were heavy. He could feel the heat seeping into his skin all the way to the tips of his toes. And that heat was all it took.

Haruka's eyes went wide.

All he could do was imagine Tachi Tempei behind him pressing up against his back, whispering those words of apology into his ear. This was not Makoto. That voice washed over him like the first dive into a still, still pool. It caressed every inch of him; his body shivering with expectation. His nipples grew taunt and rubbed deliciously against the starched fabric of his school shirt.

Oh God...

Haruka could feel his cock trapped in his swimming trunks ache with every syllable that left those lips...those lips...he needed to kiss those lips...he needed Tachi Tempei.

No

"Tachi-!"

Haruka spun around.

"-bana..."

Makoto stepped back unconsciously at the sudden change in position and call of his last name. Harkua's face was flushed but washed with confusion and the combination worried him.

Reaching out, Makoto pressed his palm to his friend's forehead "Haru, are you ok? You don't look so good"

Haruka peered deep into those green eyes searching. Searching for the spark that he saw last night. The spark he felt in that voice. The spark that lit his body on fire.

And he found exactly what he was expecting.

Nothing.

This was Makoto Tachibana.

Lunch came quickly and met Haruka, Nagisa and Makoto on the roof enjoying each others company. Earlier encounters were forgotten and everything regained a sense of normalcy.

Makoto smiled happily at the way Haruka was quietly eating his steamed mackerel with such flourish. The peculiar expression he had earlier was gone and he was back to his usual self.

With that earlier identity crisis dealt with, Makoto trained his eyes on the thick scarf wrapped tightly around Nagisa's slim neck. The cloth reached as far as his chin!

"Why the scarf Nagisa? Its almost 85 degrees out."

The blond's eyes brightened to an even richer shade at the question but quickly narrowed.

"Ahhh if only you were old enough to understand Mahh-koh-chan" Nagisa teased wiggling his eyebrows at the oldest of the the three. He stuffed his mouth with another bite of his strawberry filled bread and hugged himself tightly. "This is what grownups up do!"

Makoto couldn't help but laugh, Nagisa was a class act indeed.

"Got a hickey" Haruka stated simply before continuing his meal. Ignoring the now flailing teen flushed red at the accusation.

"That's not the point!" Nagisa now hollering over the laughter uninhibited by the brunette.

The soft hum of a ring-tone filled the air.

Pausing his antics, Hazuki reached hurriedly into his jacket's front pocket, swiping out his pink flip phone. Sweet filled bun now held between his lips, the blond went away at the keypad. Tap tap taping until he face lit up, sandwich forgotten.

"Ahhh!"

Nagisa clamored to his feet and rushed to the railing of the roof. Pressing his face against the newly installed wire fence he peered down at the field below.

Makoto and Haruka gave each other a look. What was he doing?

"Nagisa what's-"

"GANBATTE REI-CHAN! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!"

Rei-chan?

Curious, Makoto (slowly followed by a less than interested Haru) made their way to the edge of the rooftop so see what had caught his interest.

As if on cue, one of the boys on the field peered up at the building, a large hand blocking the sun's rays from piercing his glasses.

Nagisa broke out in chant waving his arms wildly "LETS GOOO, LETS GO, LETS GO, LETS GO, LETS GO REI-CHAN!"

'Rei-chan', clearly embarrassed by the outcry, stumbled a bit but quickly gained his composure. Adjusting his frames, he gave a curt nod and made his way to the starting point of the pole vault section.

The school was having their annual track meet and scores of students filled the fields below. Almost all of them now trained their eyes on the commotion going on on the roof.

Makoto grabbed onto the blond who was, climbing onto the fence?!

"Nagisa come down from there!" Makoto exclaimed, what if the fence gave way?!

"But Rei-chan!"

"Rei-chan needs your support but he also needs to concentrate" Makoto explained, Nagisa's eyes now moist with disappointment.

Sighing, Tachibana brought him back to the ground, leading him to their forgotten lunch.

Haruka looked over at the field for a little longer.

That was the bartender wasn't it.

By the time he made his way back to the others Nagisa was already explaining just how he met this 'Rei-chan' and how amazing he was at long distance running.

The walk home was uneventful. Nothing like what happened earlier occurred for the rest of the day and Haruka was convinced that it was just a fluke. Makoto's words no longer had the effect that they did this morning. And they had spoken ever since. He was already resigned to the idea that Tachibana and Tempei were none in the same and it was nice to be back in the ease that Makoto provided. He would have to keep his obsession with the rock star a secret though. How would they react if they found out he was interested in such a person, much less a guy.

Nanase looked off to the horizon, thoughts filled with everything and yet nothing.

Makoto could tell that Haru's mind was not with him as they walked along the street looking out at the ocean. But that was ok. That was what made their friendship work. Haruka would sometimes go off into his own world -

Probably thinking about Rin...

-but Makoto would always bring him back.

Always.

Smiling, Makoto bumped his shoulder into Haruka's, "Its going to be warm enough to swim soon."

Haruka didn't respond. But he knew him long enough to know he agreed.

And that was ok.

Nothing calmed him like water.

Soaking in the tub was a treat he looked forward to eery day. It was his time to think and ease his mind off of the stress that built up over the days and years.

But tonight was not going like it should.

Haruka sighed, knocking the back of his head against the tiled wall. How was he supposed to deal with this? 'This' being the erection currently trapped in his favorite swimming gear. He had been sitting in the water for almost a half hour trying to decide what to do, choosing to ignore it and let it go away but to no avail. Why was even this excited? Was it because of Tachi?

Haruka gasped, hands clutching the edge of the tub. Just the thought of the vocalist sent shocks through his system, making his pants even tighter than before.

He gave his crotch another glare for even reacting at the thought but gave out in the end.

Reaching under the water Nanase pulled at the waist of his trunks, sliding them under the curve of his ass and pulling them up to meet the bend of his knees.

The release of pressure was blessing as his cock slapped wetly against his well defined abdomen.

It had been a while since the need to touch himself was so strong. He could tell this would be different from those other times.

Signing his fate, slender fingers wrapped around the base of his shaft and gave a firm tug.

"Ahn!"

Nanase bit his lip. He had to stay quiet. He felt so guilty for thinking about him like this. Thinking about a stranger in such a lewd manner.

He slouched deeper into the bathtub as if to hide his embarrassment, his body almost completely submerged. This was so wrong...

Getting a good grip, Haruka stroked his cock gently. The water was always a welcomed sensation when he got himself off, the constant movement rippling the surface of the bath. He always took it slow, easing his way down the base then sending his hand back up to the tip and tightening his grip as he reached the head. The first drip of pre-cum lost itself in the water but the pleasure took him sharply, body arching into his clenched fist.

The edges of his mind began to cloud.

He could feel his left hand move on its own, reaching up to pull at his nipples. The nubs were stiff as he rolled them between his fingers. How would it feel if Tachi passed his tongue roughly against them?

Sucking on it...pulling on them between his teeth...

His hand moved faster now, breath coming in broken exhales.

Haruka's eyes locked onto the ceiling as another wave of pleasure rushed through his frame. The water splashed noisily around him spilling onto the bathroom floor. It was getting harder to keep his voice down as his mind went deeper into dangerous territory.

What would he think of you...seeing you like this...

Haruka spread his legs wider.

Jaw slack, he looked down at the water. The liquid morphed the silhouette of his hand as if taking on the shape of someone else.

"Tah...Tachi-!" Haruka groaned. This wasn't his doing. It was Tachi Tempei. It was Tachi who was stroking his cock, pulling at his nipples, making his toes curl, making him beg...

Beg him to fuck you

"Ahh...AH!"

Haruka screamed as his orgasm took hold of him, body going taunt as raw pleasure licked at his nerves till it made him whimper with each pulse of his cock. Every drop of himself left him in thick spurts, ribbons of cum dirtying the now warm water.

His hand slowed down as the last of him dribbled out into the bathtub until there was no more left to give.

Fuck.

Breath struggling to regulate, Nanase regrouped his thoughts. But as his vision focused, his eyes caught those of his rubber dolphin perched at the edge of the tub.

He quickly looked away, face going even redder in embarrassment as if he had been caught doing the unthinkable, before knocking the toy into the water with his feet.

This obsession was getting way out of hand...
