Title: Only You See Me As Me
Rating: M
Pairing(s): Hijikata twerks for everyone.
Warning(s): If you're a pervert like me, you don't care about warnings, do you? Hurr hurr…;3
Thank you so much for the reviews! I love you guys! I didn't mean to make some of you choose between OkiHiji or GinHiji. This story will be GinHiji. Okita has feelings and Hijikata likes dicks but they won't be together. There will be moments but maybe Kagura might pop up and make Okita swoon. Who knows. Lol. Or should I make you guys suffer some more? *evil laugh*
Enjoy!
"According to the latest information that has been provided, the FBI is now on this grueling case. We got word that they left early in the morning even before sunrise to arrive in Kabuki District as fast as they can. This shows that the seriousness of this case is…"
Hijikata opened his eyes slowly. He felt warm. He knew Sougo turned on the AC in the car and he was expecting to feel the cool air hit him. He didn't really like the cold but he knew arguing with the thickheaded brunette would only cause him more problems. So when he awoke to find a brown leather jacket strewn across him, he couldn't help but be surprised. It smelled awfully a lot like Sougo's cologne and he couldn't help but want to inhale the scent some more.
"Don't use my jacket to satisfy your needs, you bastard," Sougo spoke up. He was slowing down the car now as he turned to park in the lot that was right in front of the Kabuki police station.
Hijikata got up and let the jacket settle on his shoulders. "I'm not. I'm just trying to hold in the barf that's about to come out because your jacket smells like shit, you bastard."
"We're here," Sougo said, turning off the engine and opening his door. He got out and then opened the door for Hijikata before he could himself.
Hijikata looked up to see those red eyes, staring back at him but they were blank. He didn't know what this kid was thinking. He didn't know if he wanted to know what he was thinking. His mind kept replaying the kiss they had not too long before. Why would he do that?
Hijikata emerged from the car and walked away after hearing the "beep" from the car remote, signaling that all the doors were locked.
Walking inside the station, he saw his team members waiting for him. They all had a moment of shock when they saw Sougo's jacket on Hijikata's shoulders but soon reverted back to normal as to not anger their boss.
"Hijikata-kun, correct?" Hijikata turned to look at a man that wasn't too old but definitely in his 40s. He still had a nice built and was at least 6'2". His brown hair was messy but in a sexy way. He had a lecherous smile on his face as he observed Hijikata.
Hijikata looked at the man straight in the eyes and at the hand that was offered before dismissing it and moving to the briefing room without permission.
The man raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the rest of the team. "Is he ok?"
"I'm sorry for his rudeness!" Shinpachi quickly said. He bowed slightly. He felt a warm hand on his head, ruffling his hair. Was he…chuckling? Normally, most people would be upset and sometimes even refuse to let Hijikata on the case. Of course, they changed their minds thanks to himself and sometimes Sougo's threats. It wasn't like Hijikata didn't get the job done. He always did with little to no problems. He hand picked the people to be on his team and Kondo allowed him because he knew whatever Hijikata chose, it was right.
"It's quite alright. My name is Hayate. I've met your boss before," the man said.
Everyone was a bit surprised at this information except Sougo.
"Ah...so you know how he is already," Shinpachi said in relief.
The man nodded. "Yes, we've met more than once but of course, not on business."
Quiet ensued until Sougo spoke up. "You guys know what to do. I told you back in headquarters. Get the information you need from here and get moving."
"Yes, sir!" Everyone parted ways except for Sa-Chan who waited for Sougo to come with her as she was suppose to pair up with him. He looked at her and signaled her to go wait for him in the car.
Once she was gone, Sougo slammed Hayate against the wall, shocking at least 3 other police officers nearby and Shinpachi who was grabbing a folder from his messenger bag.
"Okita-san!"
"Hayate! Are you okay?!" One of the officers asked.
Hayate ignored him and kept looking at Sougo. He had to admit that those eyes scared him but he wouldn't show any signs of weakness. He cleared his throat to make sure his voice would come out steadily.
"What's the matter?"
Sougo let go of the man and glared at him. "Touch him and I'll fucking castrate you."
The man chuckled as he watched Sougo walk away. Smirking, he said the first thing that came to mind.
"What if I already did?"
Sougo stopped. He was quiet for a while before turning to look at him with a sinister grin.
"With you? I doubt it."
And with that, he stepped out of the building, leaving Hayate in shock.
He gritted his teeth and turned to look at the rest of the officers who were staring at him. Growling, he moved past them and into the office of the police chief.
This was supposed to be his case! Why was the FBI here? They didn't need them! Of course, he was able to see Hijikata again but he would rather see him in his bed than in the workplace. Hijikata was his worse enemy when it came to cases. He'd start on them and then someone would call over the FBI and make him look like a dumbass.
"Sir!" Hayate came charging into the office to see the police chief already speaking with Hijikata. He stopped and waited for the two figures to notice his presence.
"My subordinate is setting up the briefing room. I'll be back to talk to you about the victims," Hijikata said. He turned and brushed pass Hayate without even glancing at him.
'Fuck you!' Hayate couldn't help it. Hijikata was an ass. An ass he wanted but an ass nonetheless.
"I'm sorry, Hayate. The case isn't moving anywhere. It's best if we let the FBI take over," the police chief explained, already knowing why the detective was here.
"You can't do this!"
The chief sighed and got up to gaze outside the window. He watched the civilians walk by, going about their daily routines. He needed to protect these people, make them feel safe again in their own district.
"I can."
"Sir, the FBI doesn't even care about our small district. Why bother –"
"I know Hijikata hasn't been making you look good recently but your reputation is the last thing we need to think about now! The citizens are frightened. We need to protect them and ensure them that we'll catch this guy. Bringing in the FBI was the only way."
Hayate gritted his teeth. "Fuck!"
He left the office and began gathering his belongings when he felt a hand on his shoulder. Looking up, he saw Hijikata looking down at him.
"Come with me to the briefing room. If you aren't too much of a dumbass, I think you can be useful," he said calmly.
Hayate's eyes widened. Even though Hijikata was an asshole in his eyes, he did have his cute sides. He still remembered that night at the bar when he was with his friend. They were drinking and he noticed the unit chief the minute he walked through the door. His sculpted body in those tight black pants and black shirt, those gunmetal eyes that seemed to hypnotize everyone around him, his pale but beautiful skin…
Even his buddy that night was staring, although he made no moves.
Considering himself handsome enough, he approached the black haired man only to be rejected but he noticed that Hijikata was looking over at his friend who was also looking at him. Neither of them tried to approach the other but even he could feel the sexual tension between the two. It was a bit suffocating and once he was about to sit down, Hijikata allowed him to at least have once dance with him.
He wasn't one to take pity from others but he wasn't about to turn that down.
Even so, he was upset that every dry hump he tried on Hijikata earned him a punch.
But even throughout all that, his friend kept staring at Hijikata and vice versa. He wanted to tell his friend to just go fuck the beauty's brains out but when he turned back around, his friend had disappeared. That had to be about a month ago with other meetings after, none which led to what he wanted it to.
He nodded and got up to accompany Yamazaki, the chief, and Hijikata in the briefing room.
"I don't understand something. Why did he suddenly go after a male victim and why was he the only to be raped?" the police chief asked. He took out Charles's picture again and Hijikata couldn't help but wince again.
"I don't know either. It doesn't make sense. Maybe the guy made him angry?" Hayate said while looking at the reports.
"No."
Everyone turned to look at Hijikata who was staring at the picture intensely. "The other kills before looked like he was trying to suppress something. The women were picked up from different clubs. They all looked like they were out for partying, a day of fun, sex, everything that gets someone into deep shit.
"The killer was probably going to these places for his own sexual desire. According to the report, Sakura Shikinami was involved in giving random strangers either a lap dance or she stripped for them. She was completely drunk according to another woman. The club was called Vanity. I think one of the men who she was performing these acts for was probably the killer. He was trying to get off, trying to fulfill his desires."
Yamazaki nodded, absorbing the information and it hit him. "Hijikata-san, what if he has another victim he wants to go after but can't? Although the victims do not look the same and their only similarity has to be partying, it makes sense. He can't suppress his desire for whoever he truly wants. My guess is the person he truly wants is not a female but maybe a male as Charles was repeatedly raped through his anus."
"That's what I was thinking as well," Hijikata said.
"So the murderer is gay? Fucking faggot," the chief said as he slammed his fist on the table. "And then they wonder why we won't accept them."
Hayate glared at the police chief. He wasn't gay. He was bisexual but that still applied to him. He looked over at Hijikata who only had a blank face.
"That's the problem."
Everyone once again looked at Hijikata.
"What do you mean, Hijikata?" the police chief asked in confusion.
Hijikata looked at him. The chief gulped under the gaze. Those eyes…he didn't know what it was but those eyes drew anyone into him.
"The killer most likely hates himself. He's trying to turn straight by using women but out of frustration as he realizes he cannot get off, he ends up murdering them. Lucy Sakamote was found with no underwear on but she wasn't raped. There was no penetration."
"Society is to blame. He's trying to change because everyone wants him to. He finds a beauty that he can't keep his eyes off and gets angry at himself. Instead of killing that person, he goes to women, hoping they can change him. They fail, he kills. But was Charles a target or was it just by random?" Hayate asked.
"We're not sure but my team should figure that out," Hijikata said.
The chief shook his head. "This is crazy…"
"Yamazaki, where did Sougo and Sa-Chan go?"
Yamazaki finished tacking up all the photos and evidence related items on the bulletin before addressing his unit chief.
"Sougo and Sa-Chan went to investigate the first two crime scenes but also, Sougo texted me saying he sent Sa-Chan to talk to the owners of Club Vogue. I think Sougo may be on his own at the moment."
Hijikata smirked. "So he made the plans on his own? The little shit. Although, I was thinking something similar, so I'll give him credit."
Hayate shuddered at Sougo's name. He wondered about the relationship between Hijikata and the kid.
After a whole day of driving from crime scene to crime scene, the team decided to settle in a hotel near the police station. Everyone shared a room but when the time came to choose, Hijikata automatically said Yamazaki would be with him. His excuse for the sudden outburst was that he needed to go over some of the information with him. Everyone shrugged it off and went to their rooms.
When the clock stroke 12am, Hijikata got up slowly and dressed himself. His attire consisted of tight, blue skinny jeans and a shirt that exposed his chiseled abs. It resembled a tank top but just cut in half and tighter. He also wore boots that overlapped the jeans, close to his knees. He pocketed some condoms and lube. He looked over at Yamazaki who was sound asleep and grabbed a coat long enough to reach his ankles.
He tried his best to make as little noise as possible. He made sure to check each hallway he turned and took the stairs instead of the elevator in case someone was to be waiting for it. Once he made it outside, he quickly went inside one of the SUVs and drove to the nearest club he could find, parking in the filled up lot.
His boots clicked as he made his way to the front door. Before he could open it, it opened for him. He looked straight into the eyes of none other than Hayate himself.
"Whoaaaaa," Hayate whistled as he sized Hijikata. He wrapped an arm around his shoulders and brought him inside.
"Get your arm off me," Hijikata grumbled. He made no attempt at removing it though. This wasn't the first time.
"I wasn't expecting Mr. Big FBI man to walk through these doors at this time. How do you do your work so efficiently when you're sucking cock late at night?" Hayate laughed. He smacked Hijikata's ass and got a hard punch to the jaw because of that.
Hayate laid on the floor in pain and no one noticed or seemed to care.
"I'm only here for a while." Searching, he saw a red head serving beers and drinks to his customers. Bingo.
Hijikata settled himself in the bar seat and ordered a beer while ogling the bartender who had equal interest. The guy was young, probably no older than nineteen but he was legal. That was all Hijikata cared about.
Features were also a plus; red hair, brown sharp eyes, and athletic build. Sex on legs.
He got his drink from the bartender who leaned down and smirked at Hijikata.
"Why don't we head to the back? My shift ends in 10 minutes."
"Hmm, it takes a little more than that to get me," Hijikata chuckled and sipped his beer. Putting down his glass, he circled the brim of his glass with his index finger, licking his lips while he stared at the young man.
The red head smile. That would have made thousands of girls swoon. He leaned closer to whisper in Hijikata's ear. "Doesn't fucking matter. I'm gonna tie you down and have my way with you. You'll be begging for my big hard cock in no time. Can you handle it?" His breath tickled Hijikata's ear.
Hijikata was hard. That was an understatement.
Growling back just as harshly, Hijikata said, "Then hurry up and fuck me so that the only thing I'll be feeling for days is your large dripping cock in my ass."
The red head moaned when another customer came in.
The young man was getting restless. Hijikata could see it. Every time a customer called him over, he'd hurry, hoping Hijikata would still be sitting there or he'd ask another fellow bartender to tend to the other male's needs.
Hijikata got hit on by another guy with a beard. He rejected him but not because he wasn't interested. The package looked big enough but he already had another fuck eagerly waiting for him.
The beard man angrily left the bar afterwards and in came a familiar face.
"Ah! Toshirou!"
Hijikata nearly spit out his drink as he turned around to face Taylor, the same guy he slept with the previous night.
"It was one time. Go away," he said sharply and turned back around to finish his drink.
Taylor laughed and sat down next to Hijikata while wrapping his arm around his shoulders. "Oh come on! Besides, you have something that belongs to me. I heard the best FBI team was in Kabuki District and guess what? I don't live that far from here!"
"Then why were you in Kyoto?" Hijikata asked as he got another drink from the red head. He could tell the teen was eyeing Taylor carefully, making sure he wouldn't take his prey.
Hijikata didn't mind playing the prey in these kinds of situations.
"Oh, I'm half Japanese although I was born in the states. I was visiting my grandma on my dad's side of the family but I'm staying in Kabuki because I'm planning on becoming a police officer one day. When I do, I want it to be here because this place is filled with way too much crime. It breaks my heart to see this place in such ruins when it comes to the safety of the civilians. Someone has to change this place and I know I can do it."
Hijikata was a bit shocked to hear all that from Taylor. He didn't say "if" he became one, he said "when". And he didn't say he "thinks" he can do it, he said he "knows".
"You sure have a lot of confidence. I think it's too late to save this place. The only good thing here is the sex and drinks," Hijikata bluntly said. He finished his drink and saw the younger teen motion for him to come to the back. He slowly got up but was stopped by Taylor.
"That's not true, Toshirou. Come on; let me show you what Kabuki has to offer you."
Hijikata grumbled. He turned his gaze to the back of the bar and then back at a puppy dog faced Taylor.
"Sorry Taylor. Someone's waiting for me. And stop calling me by my first name!" Hijikata said as he yanked his arm away and went to the back of the building.
Once he was there, the red head made out furiously with him, grinding their bodies together. His hand planted itself on Hijikata's ass and pushed him up the wall. Hijikata immediately wrapped his legs around his waist and gasped as his neck was attacked by the red head's lips.
"Mmm.." Hijikata moaned. No matter how horny he was, he wasn't about to do it in an alleyway.
"Wait, do you have a car or live nearby here?" Hijikata gasped as a hickey was made.
The red head nodded. "I live 30 minutes from here. Let's do it in the car."
"Oh well...I'll get through him one day," Taylor muttered as he made his way to his car. Not too far from his car, he could see a messy Hijikata in the backseat with a red head. He shook his head. He knew Hijikata was basically a manwhore probably hiding the fact that he's gay from his friends and doesn't want any strings attached but he couldn't help but want to be able to form some kind of bond with him.
While on the road, he stopped behind a car and noticed the streetlight was green.
'Huh?'
Getting out his car, he walked towards the other car and knocked on the glass. "Excuse me! Are you okay?"
The man inside looked panicked and hysterical. He rolled down his window and pointed at the body laying in front of his car.
"I didn't hit him! I didn't see him! He wasn't there! I don't know what's going on!"
Taylor looked to see a body lying on the floor. The car did hit the body but it looked to have been already dead. He was only stabbed.
Turning back to the car, Taylor held his hands up. "Do not worry, sir! It's not your fault but I have to call the police!"
"Please, I did nothing! My daughter is waiting for me!"
"I know, I know! Please calm down!" Taylor said. He pulled out his phone. Too bad he couldn't call Hijikata. This probably dealt with his case but he was too busy getting pounded in the back of a car by a teenage boy.
"Hello? Yes! There's a dead body on the road in front of The Blue Moon club! Please hurry!"
Taylor looked down at the body. He remembers the face but wasn't sure where.
'Wait! That guy was the guy I passed by at the front of the club! How was he killed so quickly and by whom?!'
The police arrived soon after.
Ok guys don't kill me. I know Hijikata is a guy who takes his work seriously. He does! Let him have sex on the side and don't kill meeee! They are using protection! Hence, Hijikata putting condoms in his pocket! He's not stupid.
So please. I know KonKon said they'd rather Hijikata not have sex anymore and Gintoki being his next and last person he sleeps with but like the whole story is really Hijikata learning how to love. He's afraid to. I'm not sure if I'll include Mitsuba but in this story, Hijikata's gayer than a rainbow so I don't think I will include Mitsuba unless I come up with a clever way to include her.
I want Gintoki in the next chapter. Not sure how I'll do it. I had an original plan but that would mean character death and Gintoki appearing in Chapter 5 instead of 4. What do you guys think I should do?
BTW, guess who the friend of Hayate's was? I know you know. :)
