Author's Note:

It is up and running. The Frost-Fan fanclub is now up on deviant art awaiting the patronage it was promised. I know the name is lame, but it was the only one that wasn't taken L Oh well, we'll live with it. I thought a lot about what would be the purpose of anyone joining, so I'm going to make it as compelling to you as I can. First, Exclusive to the fan page will be one shot fanfics from all different series that will never make it on this website. Second, I will put up original work on the fansite, possibly even a little peak at the novel starring A.F. I always seem to be talking about. Third, you all really seem to like this story, and I'm not much of an artist, so I would love to see you're a take on my story. Fourth, links connecting you to… Idk, fun stuff, lol. Including some AMVs I'll put up on youtube. Fifth, contests! Sixth, joining would be a great way for you to try and get me to look at some of your own work. So, I've tried to make this "fanclub" as much of a community as possible. You asked for it, and so I will deliver it. (After the chapter, be sure to check out the after note for information regarding the first contest for the club)

Chapter 3: Good Ship and Crew

"Yuki," Shuichi moaned, "I don't feel well, please come over here and hold me. I need something strong to anchor myself.

Walking across the floor that groaned with the age of the boat, Yuki threw his coat on the chair before sitting on it himself and pulling out his laptap. "No," he muttered as he booted up the pc and cracked his fingers.

Whining, Shuichi continued, "Please, Yuki. I'm seasick. I just want to cuddle for a little bit. Can't you write later? I really want to have some time with you right now."

"Damn, I said 'no' already!" Yuki barked as he put on his glasses and typed in his password. Clack clack clack went the keys as he furiously tried to develop a story on the rocking ship. Pressing the keys, he found it hard to concentrate as all the senses of the sea made themselves known to him. The sharp cry of the seagulls. A low rumbling as each wave passed through the ship. The sort of brown tint everything had inside the cabin.

In the corner of his eyeglasses, he saw the transparent reflection of Shuichi with his head hung low. Shaking slightly, Silent tears fell onto the pillow near Shuichi's head as he tried to keep quiet for Yuki's work.

He sighed and shut the laptop. Standing up, Yuki crossed the room and joined Shuichi on the bed. A tuft of pink hair covered Shuichi's wet eyes. Reaching his long hand out, Yuki pushed back the hair to see Shu-chan's eyes. Smiling at Shuichi, Yuki smiled and gave him a kiss. "I'm sorry," he said softly as he pulled back the sheets and lied down underneath them. "Sometimes I forget what a precious gift you are."

He pulled Shuichi close to his body and pulled the sheets over them. Head rested in a hand that was propped up against a pillow, Yuki lifted Shuichi's chin with his finger and gave him another sweet kiss on the lips before wiping away the remaining tears with his thumb. "I'm just tired now. I'll try not to forget again."

Looking up at Yuki, Shuichi swallowed a breath of air and whispered, "Yuki…" A firm finger was placed against his soft lips, silencing him. Yuki kissed Shuichi's forehead before resting his head next to Shuichi's on the pillow and closing his eyes. Sleep would be soon to follow.

"C'mon, Hiro, play with me!" Seguchi shouted as he pounced. Jumping out of the way, Hiro found himself backed into a corner with the shirtless Tohma rapidly approaching. "Oh, stop being such a silly boy, you know you want me in you."

"Get away from me!" Hiro shouted while grabbing a lamp. "Why the hell did I have to share a room with you?"

"Because, I'm the president of your production company, and guys with long red hair drive me crazy," Tohma gave a wicked laugh as he knocked the desk lamp out of Hiro's hands. "Don't worry, just close your eyes, and once I loosen you up, it will feel good!"

"Stay away from me!" Hiro yelled as he rolled out of the corner just as Tohma smacked into the wall. "I'm gonna go see what K and Fujisaki are up to."

"Wait!" Tohma shouted as Hiro opened the cabin door. "Wouldn't you rather go into Yuki's room? It would be easier if both of you were in the same room. I could get you both cornered and do all sorts of naughty things!"

"I'm leaving!" Hiro slammed the door and walked towards the ship's railing. Grabbing the cold metal, he leaned over the edge and stared into the dark swirling waters. Off in the distance fish jumped from the water and sailed through the air before splashing through the frothing white. Even when things turn violent on the sea, everything still maintains a sense of harmony and balance.

"You'll have to come to bed eventually," Tohma said as he snuck up behind Hiro and grabbed his ass.

Hiro shrieked and shoved Tohma before storming back to the cabins. Shuichi. His old high school friend. That's who he wanted to talk to right now.

Looking behind him to make sure Tohma was still at the railing, Hiro pushed open Shuichi's door and squinted into the darkened room. Lying in peace was Shuichi, curled up against Yuki.

Hiro sighed and shut the door. His friend had found happiness, but at what cost? Shuichi no longer needed Hiro as much as he used to. Hiro was with them the last time they were in America, but K had urged him to just stay in the hotel room. He wasn't sure of everything that happened. True he had seen news reports on this A.F. guy, but unlike the others, he didn't have the personal experience.

No. All he knew was that whatever happened, it had changed caused a drastic change in everyone. K wasn't as reckless and was always worried that someone was lurking behind the corner. Suguru-chan would occasionally burst out of the recording studio in tears. While napping in the studio during a break after a long day, Shuichi would occasionally awake with a scream and be drenched in cold sweat. But, the biggest change was in Yuki.

He was still cold to most people, but that was only expression deep. The cold glaze that coated his eyes for as long as Hiro could remember was gone. Replaced by alertness. Constantly watching for anything suspicious. One time, Shuichi had turned off his cell phone while working, Yuki ended up driving down to the studio just to make sure everything was alright. He had grown "worried" when he couldn't reach Shuichi.

Perhaps on the outside there wasn't a big change. However, these slight changes on the external gave secrets to the change in tides he had undergone within. Even now, just the way he was cuddling with Shuichi. Offering to be his strength when Shuichi was in pain…

As awful as what they must have gone through was, Hiro felt guilty because he was glad slightly glad it happened. After those events, Yuki's love for Shuichi seemed to have grown and strengthened beyond what Hiro thought Yuki was capable of feeling. This was the way things should be. Shuichi finally had the man he deserved.

Hiro shrugged and decided to go see what K and Fujisaki were up to. Grabbing the door handle, he found the door stuck for a second before he forced it open. Inside the room, with lights on as bright as they could, were K and Fujisaki alright…

Suguru-chan gasped when he saw the shocked Hiro and tried to struggle away from K. Unable to pull K out of him, he tried to tell K to stop in between his heavy breaths.

K just assumed that Fujisaki was teasing and continued to thrust harder. Slamming the door shut, Hiro fell against the wall wide-eyed. Tohma popped up along side of him and licked his cheek. The shocked Hiro didn't even protest. He just sat there in his near catatonic state.

"What's the matter, boy-toy?" Tohma asked as he rested his chin against Hiro's shoulder.

Turning to Tohma, Hiro gulped a mouthful of air and replied, "What has been seen, cannot be unseen."

After Note:

That was fun, now, all of you should go join the fan club. The first fan club is to design the badge that will represent the group. If you have any problem joining, send me a message. I went to a con yesterday. The BGSU Animarathon. Smallest con I've ever been to. Right now, it looks like I'm going to A-cen Chicago and Colossalcon in Sandusky, OH. And then pepper in a handful of small cons ;) Remember, SExy kitchen (Ohayocon joke, lol)
