Ok, got a good nights sleep so I'm ready to keep typing! ENJOY!

Hiro slowly got his senses back. He ached all over and had a splitting head ache, but he also felt a cool towel on his forehead. Hiro noticed that there was also a metallic taste that he guessed was from a split lip. There was also the smell of gun powder and cleaning oil, along with the faint clicking noises of something metal begin picked up and put down again The clicking stopped after a moment and Hiro opened his eyes to see K was looking at him from across a coffee table.

You're finally awake. How do you feel?" Hiro sat up and slightly winced.

"I'm alright, a little sore."

"That's good."

"What happened?"

"What do you remember?"

"Well, the last thing I think I remember was . . . you, with a gun."

"Yup, that's pretty much it. When I got there you'd just been hit with a 2x4. How's your lip?" Hiro licked his lip and winced.

"Throbbing."

"Thought you'd say that. Sit tight and I'll get you some ice." K put down the gun part he was cleaning and went into the next room. Hiro swung his legs off the couch he was on. He looked around the room and was surprised that there weren't any guns mounted on the walls or any in the room for that fact besides the one K had been cleaning.

K came back with an ice pack and gave it to Hiro, then went back to cleaning the gun he had.

"So where are we exactly?" K looked up in surprise.

"My place. Why, where else would I take you?"

"Well there's just less guns here then I thought there'd be."

"Well, what exactly did you expect?" K looked back at Hiro, amused.

"Me and the guys have actually talked about it and honestly we thought you're place would look like an armory."

"No," K laughed, "that's in the basement." K just grinned at him and Hiro started to feel a little nervous. Here he was talking with K and K was just smiling at him.

"Um, that was blunt."

"I've got nothing to hide. You want to see it?" K cocked an eyebrow at Hiro suggestively and made Hiro squirm.

"No thanks, maybe another time. Besides I should probably get home. Thanks for taking care of me." 'I've got to get out of here before I explode and spill everything!' Hiro went to stand up.

"I wouldn't-"

"OUCH!"

"-do that." When Hiro went to stand up he got a sharp pain in his stomach and doubled over on the ground.

"Here, let me help." K got up and went over to Hiro. K helped him up and sat him back on the couch. "You're probably bruised up pretty good."

"Mmh, now you tell me." Hiro was so wrapped up with the pain in his stomach that he didn't have time to register the fact that K was sitting next to him.

"Take off your shirt and let me see." Hiro stiffened as he realized the position he was in. K was sitting next to him and holding his shoulders. This was the closes they'd been together since K had caught Hiro from falling down the stairs before he could seriously hurt himself.

'Shit, fuck, shit, FUCK! What do I do? I do that and I might just spill everything! But if I don't he'll know that somethings up! I'm so screwed!'

K watched as Hiro stiffened and multiple emotions played across his face. "Hiro?"

"Huh? Uh, ya sure." Hiro brought down his hands to the hem of his shirt and pulled up slowly, not just because of the pain, but because he noticed K was just staring at him. Finally he got his shirt up and over his head.

"Turn so I can see your back first." Hiro nodded and turned to his left. Then he felt K put his hands on his back and Hiro was grateful that he wasn't looking at K because he could feel the blush come across his face. "Tell me if anything hurts." Hiro nodded not trusting his voice and K started at the bottom of his back just above the waist line, pressing firmly. "Anything?"

"Uh, no." K moved his hands up. Hiro noted that his hands were warm and felt really good going up his tense back.

"Damn, what have you been so stressed out about?" K's sudden comment pulled him out of his little daydream.

"Huh? How did you know that?"

"You've got knots like crazy."

"Where did you learn how to notice knots?"

"My sister. She does massages for a living back home and she taught me a few things. So what have you been so stressed out about?

'You' "Nothing really." 'Oh boy, I'm so dead!'

"Well, it's something. And as tense as you are it's got to something pretty rough."

"Really, it's nothing you need to worry about." Hiro didn't know how much longer he could hold out when K's hands stopped just under his shoulder blades.

"You sure there's nothing I can do to help?"

'Oh my GOD!' "Ya, it's fine. You'd probably think it was stupid, he-he." Hiro sat there, hoping that he would buy it. 'Please, please, please don't see through my terrible lie! Please be the ignorant, trigger-happy asshole you usually are and don't notice!'

K sighed and continued looking over Hiro's back, "If you say so." Hiro internally sighed with relief.

'Crisis averted,' Hiro thought as he tried to relax himself before K started asking more questions. As K got to Hiro's shoulder's though, he paused.

"You don't feel any pains? Your back feels alright?"

"For the most part. I'm just a little sore." At that moment, K wrapped his arms around Hiro's shoulders and Hiro's eyes bulged as K put his head at the nape of his neck.

"K? What are you-"

"Just for a minute." Hiro didn't know what else to do, so he just sat there.

'What the hell is he doing?! Why is he hugging me from behind and leaning his head on my neck? It's not like he's . . . OH MY GOD! Don't tell me that he also-'

"Hiro? I sorry but I can't pretend any more."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"Why don't I just show you?" K let go of Hiro and then grabbed him by the shoulders and pushed him down while straddling him and pinned him to the couch. With one hand K both of Hiro's wrists and pinned them above his head and with the other he gently brushed Hiro's hair away from the back of his neck and to the side.

"K! What are you- ah!" K had bent down and licked the back of Hiro's neck. He then blew on the wet trail making Hiro shiver slightly.

"Wait a second!" Hiro tried to turn over, which K allowed and was pinned back down to the couch. Before Hiro could say anything, K came down and crashed his lips to Hiro's. Hiro didn't know what to do. He froze on the spot. When K pulled away all K could see was the shock on Hiro's face. K had no idea what Hiro was thinking or feeling. Hiro on the other had, was still shocked but was extremely happy.

"K . . . H-how long have you . . . ?"

"Since the first day I met you guys. Your red hair really stood out. You where the one I noticed first when I opened the door."

"You mean crashed through it."

"Details. My point is, I've noticed you for a long time and I didn't know why. I felt something for you, but I didn't know what it was. I just thought it had something to do with it being 'band mate and manager' kind of relationship. But I knew in the back of my mind that that wasn't all it was. That it was something more."

"I'm surprised you didn't noticed Shu first. He is the one with the pink hair and the overly hyper personality. So, why did you notice me first?"

"I've always had a thing for red heads. It was always that something I look for in a crowd." Hiro never would've thought that K had felt the same way for him as he did for K.

"And . . . when did you figure out what you were feeling?"

"Well, after I caught you from falling down the stairs yesterday, I had this over whelming urge to touch you. I tried not to but as we were leaving the building I couldn't take it and I needed a moment to think about it. That's why I left so suddenly. Then today you were fidgeting like a bunny on a sugar high and the urge to touch you again came back and as you left I started to think about why I would want to touch you."

"And you have . . . thought it over."

"Yes." K was just smiling down at Hiro as Hiro started to blush.

"So, . . . what's your conclusion?"

"My conclusion is simple . . . I'm in love with you." Hiro's eyes widened and a small smile slowly made it's way across his face.

"Now it's your turn."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Well my feelings will mean nothing if you don't feel the same way. So it's your turn. Do you feel the same or is it all one sided?" Hiro sat there for a few seconds wondering how he was going to tell K that it was the same way with him. He decided to just say the truth.

"Actually it's the same with me. When you left I thought about what I had felt when I'm around you and I thought I'd heard it before. Then I realized that I'd heard it from Shuichi when he talks about Mr. Yuki. Then I just put 2 and 2 together."

"Is that why you were fidgeting earlier when I was telling you and Shuichi about Suguru going out of town?"

"Ya. I've never had to deal with this before so I was in a bit of a shock. You know that reminds me, why did you yell after me and Shu left? We could hear you all the way down the hall."

"Oh, that well that would be the moment when I found out what was up and that I had no idea how to figure this out, but I'm happy to say that I do now."

"So what are you going to do?"

"Well why don't I show you?"
