Chapter 7: A Shattered Dream and a Nurtured One

His hand trembled while holding the doorknob to the line between his happiness and despair.

To open it would mean…

What was happening? His hand wouldn't move from its position. His chest ached as he saw Makoto's lips coupled with Nanase's. He feared that yet again… his luck had run out. His eyes got bloated but he held the tears and took his hand off the doorknob. Sōsuke couldn't bear it.

Why? What had he done wrong? He finally found someone that took him seriously in all matters, which made him feel good and most important of all, he was finally able to feel loved in return…

"Kuso, Kuso… Kuso!" He was filled with bad thoughts. What would he do now? His dream gone, his heart crushed.

He punched the wall, not caring about hurting his shoulder anymore, nothing made sense to him. His shoulder started getting red from all the strain he put into it, he held it with his hand, isolated from everything, crying in pain. What he saw in that room, had broken him from the inside out. His heart was slowly, but steadily giving up on everything.

Meanwhile, Makoto shook Haru away from the bedding.

"Yamete Haru" Makoto had a very serious expression.

Nanase didn't shed a single word at Tachibana, instead he kept driving his lips to him. He knew Makoto wouldn't say no to him but just as he's going to share another kiss, Makoto put his hand in front.

"I'm sorry Haru, but you should go" The green eyed boy had decided.

"So you're giving me up? For him?" Haru stared at his best friend.

"I would never give you up, I'm giving up the one thing that I always let you have, your selfishness" Makoto stood up from the bed, packed his things while Haru slowly gave out a sad but serious expression.

He stood up from the bedding and went to the door, not saying a word to Makoto. He opened it and the Tachibana family surprised them. They all shouted:

"MAKOTO!" His parents hugged him and his siblings started crying at his side.

"Onii-chan, we were scared!" Even though they didn't tell the little ones what exactly happened, they knew big brother was in danger.

"Oh! Haru, thank you for taking care of Makoto" His mother touched Haru's shoulder.

"I have to go" Just as he said that he was gone from the room.

"Is something wrong?" Tachibana's mother cunningly asked. Makoto tried to hide it as best as he could.

"He's just not feeling well" He started smiling to calm them down a bit but something threw his guard off.

"Mommy! We saw Yamazaki-Onii-chan passing by too! But he was crying!" Ren and Ran had seen Sōsuke as he went outside the clinic. Makoto couldn't bear it…

"What? Are you sure?" He kneeled down in worry.

"Haaaaaaai" The little ones affectionately agreed.

Makoto didn't think it over, he stood up and hugged his siblings.

"Arigatou, Ren, Ran"

"Okaasan, Touu-chan, I'll be right back, there's something I forgot to do. By the way, you should go see Dr. Seiya, he's the one that attended me, and he should be able to give you a clear view of what happened"

He came out the door almost running, he still felt a little sting whenever he took sudden breaths but he didn't worry about it. Makoto was scared…

"Don't tell me he saw Haru..." The man thought to himself while going out the clinic and searching everywhere for a tall boy with Samezuka's school uniform. He didn't find anything at first so he started walking the path he would take if you wanted to return to the school. That's when he saw him…

The atmosphere suddenly changed, even at the distance you could tell something was very wrong with Sōsuke. He was sitting in a bench in the nearby park. The afternoon wind started blowing, taking all the leaves with it. Makoto stepped in and headed towards Yamazaki.

Sōsuke turned around, already calmed but there was something off… It was… as if he was empty.

"Sōsuke? What are you doing here?" Makoto asked in a somewhat nervous manner.

"I don't know, It seemed to be a good spot for thinking" There was nothingness in his words, as if he didn't care about anything anymore. He was holding his shoulder, it seemed he was in pain.

"Did you hurt yourself? Are you okay?" Makoto started worrying more and more… until Sōsuke just blew.

"WHAT DO YOU CARE?" The teal eyed man pushed Makoto aside with a considerable amount of strength, act that caused his shoulder to hurt even more.

"Agh…" He held his shoulder again, falling to his knees from the pain.

"Sōsuke, let me help you!" Even at this moment, Makoto had no idea…

"Don't you dare come close to me" He lifted his eyes to meet Makoto's gaze, he had that terrifying look he always gave people he didn't trust or like. Tachibana froze, what was happening?

"What's wrong Sōsuke!? Tell me!" Makoto couldn't bear the pain of Sōsuke looking at him like that.

"Whats wrong? WHY DON'T YOU ASK NANASE WHATS WRONG? YOU DIDN'T HAVE ANY TROUBLE AT ALL KISSING HIM"

So that was it…

He really had seen that.

Sōsuke's feelings were slowly breaking him apart, his eyes became bright and wet with tears. His head was filled with bad thoughts. Thoughts that wouldn't let him steer clear…

(You'll never have him) (No one ever takes you seriously) (Why do you even try?)

(You're better off alone) (Alone…) (Alone…)

…Every Time…

Sōsuke stood up, withstanding the pain, and grabbed Makoto by the shirt.

"HAVE YOU NO FEELINGS FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE YOU?" Yamazaki's tears fell around the grass at their feet.
This strucked Makoto harder than it should have. Before Sōsuke could push him aside again, he Makoto held his wrist.

"Chotto Sōsuke…" He didn't say too much, but the face he made caught Yamazaki's attention.

"I said that before didn't I? That I loved you so much…so" Sōsuke abruptly interrupted.

"SO WHY!? Why would you do that…?" Sōsuke slowly lowered his tone, the sadness in him getting the best of him and completely overpowering the sad man.

"Sōsuke, don't misunderstand…" He tried to caress Sōsuke's face but it only triggered him. Yamazaki slapped his hand away from his face.

"Stop…" He lifted himself and turned around to leave, he was through with the argument. Makoto held him by the wrist again… this made Yamazaki mad.

"I TOLD YOU TO STOP" But when he turned around he found himself surprised by Makoto's face and words.

"AND I'M TELLING YOU I DON'T LOVE HARU" Even Makoto was surprised when he heard himself shout that.

The taller of the two was astounded when he heard that.

"Makoto…" Sōsuke suddenly stopped crying.

"Why won't you believe me…? I had finally found my reason with you…" Makoto's voice was stuttering.

Sōsuke was mostly silent, Makoto having all of his attention.

"Haru wanted me to be with him, but I just can't, he kissed me and I stopped him in his tracks. I flew out of the clinic just to find you. And now… you just want me to get lost"

Sōsuke was submerged in bewilderment, it was as if he was watching himself in a mirror. The same agony of having someone you love turn you away, the same kindness you show everyone not being reciprocated, everything was so similar. He finally noticed…

"Makoto…" He was calmed now, Makoto was almost breaking out too…

"Shut up…" Makoto looked at Sōsuke with a puzzled look, his eyes about to burst out in tears and his hands trembling due to the nervousness. Yamazaki approached him with haste, grabbed him by the waist and kissed him. There weren't many people around since it was sunset already but the few people who were there saw the whole thing. Neither Makoto nor Sōsuke cared for the people there because to them… their lives were starting to make sense again.

Yamazaki started laughing after their lips separated.

"Is something the matter?" Makoto, a bit shy asked.

"Seems like we got some attention" He whispered in Makoto's ear and the latter turned to see the people with amazed faces. Tachibana's face got so red but before he had any more time to react Yamazaki pulled him by the hand, getting him out of there. He kept running, holding Makoto and trying to get out of sight. Makoto's adrenaline had finally caught up with Sōsuke's, he started laughing too.

"Hahahaha, Sōsuke, where are we going!?"

"Beats me!" He smiled back and kept running, it was quickly getting dark. They had already exited the park and made it through a bridge. They went uphill and reached a place where they could see a good portion of the city.

Makoto, trying to be all sly told Sōsuke

"So, I see you brought me he-" Before he could be all naughty with the man beside him, Sōsuke was already kissing him. So much for Makoto trying to set the mood, both were so fired up there wasn't any need for that.

They started kissing and groping themselves, straining their clothes as if they were going to rip them off. They caressed each other, Sōsuke bit Makoto's neck and Tachibana pulled Sōsuke's hair.

"Bite me harder" He asked his man.

After hearing that, Sōsuke pressed his teeth harder, arousing Makoto even more. It was unusual for Makoto to be so… direct. Upon feeling that bite Makoto flinched and slightly hit Sōsuke's shoulder making him release the bite and make a sort of pained face.

"Don't think I forgot about that…" Makoto said in a stirred manner.

Yamazaki smiled.

"I know… I can tell you everything Makoto…"

He cleaned the dribble in Makoto's neck and slowly went to his ears.

"I love you" Yamazaki whispered.

"I love you too… Sou-chan" They kept whispering they loved each other while nibbling themselves up.

Sōsuke lifted Makoto's shirt up but didn't take it off. He reached for the belt in Makoto's pants and loosened it, he could feel Makoto's partner grazing his cheeks through the bulge in the clothing. He licked the bulge, also biting it from the outside.

"You seem to like that a lot huh?" Makoto gave a naughty smile.

Sōsuke responded with a smile and a quick motion to take Makoto's dick off the zipper compartment. All their clothes on, Yamazaki ate Makoto's lower waist, he had him pinned to the wall with his eyes closed. He looked as Makoto flinched in position, as if Yamazaki was making him lose his mind, every moment Makoto moved in the wall, he felt his member throb out of control.

"Sō-suke…" A shy, red look was drawn in Makoto's face as he saw Yamazaki have eye contact with him, still handling that generous portion of manhood he had. He took it out of his mouth, a string of dribble still hanging, he cut it loose and went back to kissing Makoto.

Total domination…

Makoto felt like he didn't need to say anything, Yamazaki responded as he wanted. He would bite, caress, whisper to Makoto in ways that would fire him up even higher. Sōsuke also looked like he was enjoying himself. Makoto was so eager to pull Yamazaki's pants down… But he didn't look like he wanted him to do that. All the pleasure was given to Makoto.

He turned him against the wall and Makoto let out a small groan.

"I love it when you groan…"

Face flushed and jammed against the wall he felt Sōsuke's hard member press against his clothed backside.

"Sou-chan… do you want to…?"

He didn't answer, he kept pressing it harder and biting Makoto's neck from behind.

("I bet he wants to… but he's not saying anything")

Makoto took the initiative then and took his own pants out. He put his hands in Sōsuke's rear and pushed him towards his inner walls, teasing Sōsuke. This put Sōsuke on his wild side, he pulled Makoto's hair and got close face to face.

"I can't hold back much longer, I don't want to do anything you don't want me to…"

He even sounded worried, it was his way of caring for Makoto, and it was a very sweet thing to say for the most part if you ignore the stirred meaning of the phrase.

Makoto chuckled a bit.

"Oi, Sou-chan…"

"Hmm?"

"I trust you… so…"

"Make me yours…" He grabbed Sōsuke's manhood through the pants and strongly gripped it. He looked at him with that shy face Makoto does.

"But Sōsuke, there's a bit of a problem…" He didn't even need to say it. The tall man behind him got on his knees and forcefully opened Makoto's rear and stuffed his face in it, bringing Makoto to quail on site.

All he could feel was Sōsuke filling his rear walls and entry with dribble. He couldn't hold on and started moaning really loud. To this, Sōsuke grabbed Makoto's thighs and pushed him back to force his tongue inside.

"Unh… Agh… Sōsuke…" Oh he was enjoying this alright, Sōsuke's hands were everywhere until he placed them in Makoto's fine member who was slippery from the precum. After toying with Tachibana's rear he stood up and cleaned his lips dry with his shirt.

"Is it a problem now?" He smirked while lowering his pants, revealing that huge boner he had.

*Gasp…Gasp* Makoto didn't reply back, his body was agitated enough, he felt Yamazaki's gland making pressure until it went in with a swift move that hurt him.

"Ugh…." He tried to muffle out the pain but Yamazaki responded.

"Sumanai! I'll be more careful"

"Iee… go on…" Makoto didn't say anything else, he slowly pushed himself back, stabbing himself in the rear with Sōsuke's fine dick. Sweat ran through Makoto's back as he took it like a man, Yamazaki wouldn't let go of Makoto's waist, he was pounding him real hard while leaned on the cement wall.

Makoto turned his head to look back and he saw Yamazaki so focused…, he saw the lights of the city below and got lost in pleasure. His eyes were closing as he felt Sōsuke go in and out of him. As if that wasn't enough, Sōsuke grabbed Makoto's dick and started jerking it at the same pace he was ramming him from behind. They were both screaming… there was no way they wouldn't come together…

"Chotto… Sōsuke…" He was giving the signs of pleasure through his body, he was reaching the limit but Yamazaki wouldn't let him.

"Not yet Makoto…" He took it out of Makoto inside.

Confused, he looked at Sōsuke.

"Turn around" That tone of voice made him crazy, Makoto wasn't the one to give or take orders from anyone but Yamazaki sure knew how to dominate someone.

He did as Yamazaki pleased and he felt how Sōsuke brought him up. He used the wall's friction and lifted Makoto up, taking his legs on his shoulders, leaving Tachibana's rear exposed. He put it in again, but now he could clearly see Makoto's aroused face.

"I want to see you as you come with me…"

"Hayaku…" The olive haired boy jerked his member as fast as he could. His climax was near and Yamazaki's moans were only making him reach it faster.

Sōsuke face started changing, his pace going crazy and he started screaming Makoto's name really loud. He felt it explode from the inside out as he came inside Makoto's rear, while watching his man spill his seeds all over Sōsuke's chest. Breathing was the hardest part now, even though they both came Sōsuke never let go of Makoto, and there wasn't a wall behind him anymore.

"Sōsuke… your shoulder"

"I wouldn't let you fall even if it snapped right now"

"Don't say that!" He quickly put his feet on the ground, taking a look at the hurt shoulder.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner? He wasn't mad, I think Makoto understood what that meant to Sōsuke. He knew that shoulder wouldn't let him swim… That explains why Haru's kiss meant so much to him, Makoto was the only thing he had, if we could say that in such a short time, after everything at his side went wrong.

They used Yamazaki's undershirt to clean themselves, Makoto got dressed and sat on the grass looking at the city below.

"It's beautiful isn't it?" Makoto's green eyes sparkled at the view. Sōsuke just kept staring at Makoto.

"Yeah… you are" They both turned to look at each other and shared a sweet, warm kiss.

What's wrong Haru? Yes… they were at it again, but something was missing for Nanase.

"I don't know" They were both naked in bed at Rin's dorm in Samezuka.

"Tch… you're overthinking stuff again aren't you?" Rin was lying beside Haru, lotion in hands awaiting to go inside him.

"It's just that…" Before Haru could say anything else Rin put a finger in his lips.

"I know he's not here. Maybe I'm stupid for saying this, but in a way… I'm glad he's not here"

"What do you mean… Rin?"

"I have you for myself now. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed his company in these moments but…"

"But…?"

He put on a shy face which was very odd of Rin.

"I like you a lot…"

"Rin…"

Nanase opened his eyes, he was slowly forgetting his selfish desires as Rin kissed him passionately. He felt the red-haired boy go inside him and this time it felt differently. As if Rin put all of his carefulness in the motions.

"Do you like it?" Rin was blushing as he went inside Haru.

"Yeah…"

He understood now, what he had done and what he had nurtured himself in Makoto.

His breath was getting stronger as Rin pounded with all his desire. They were both really into it, Nanase was looking directly at Rin's eyes when the shark-toothed boy came inside of him. What a mess… Haru's splashed chest and filled rear. They were both looking for air, Rin put his chest on top of Haru's, also getting swamped by the cum on Haruka's chest. The ocean eyed boy hugged him, it was odd for Haru to do these kinds of stuff right after sex.

"Rin…"

The boy raised his head to meet Haru's gaze.

"Nani?"

"I love you"
