So this is going to be short since it's what happened next after the last chapter. I hope you enjoy! And don't forget to review!

When Kyoya and Gingka came back to the apartment, they were exhausted and terrified of what just happened to both of them. Even though Hotaru was their only chance to win against the 'shadows', he was taking things far with his constant molestation and small fights. But they both knew very well that Hotaru was their chance so they didn't tell the others about him.

Gingka on the other hand was blaming himself for what happened awhile ago. If he wasn't so weak then he would be able to defend himself against people like him. He was strong at swordfighting but that was only the power he gets from Pegasus and his years of training with it. But without Pegasus, he wouldn't be able to defend himself or even fight in the 'war'.

Kyoya was afraid but he never could admit something so low as that, that was just asking to ruin his reputation. But deep inside he was slightly afraid of the knife that barely missed his shoulder. But what really caused his fear was when Hotaru was touching 'HIS' Gingka. Even though calling Gingka as 'his' was wrong, he just couldn't stand the thought of Gingka being someone else's. And boy did Kyoya want to cut Hotaru's hand off when he was touching Gingka in front of 'him'. He had the nerve to do that to 'his' Gingka. No one is allowed to touch Gingka like that but him. No one is allowed to make Gingka scream and moan but him. No one is allowed to kiss Gingka but him. And most important of all, no one is allowed to love Gingka romantically but HIM.

"Kyoya?" Came a small voice behind him.

Kyoya turned around seeing Gingka's looking at the floor hair covering his face. He walked to him carefully and placed his hand on Gingka's shoulder causing Gingka to look up.

"Gingka, are you okay?" He knew that was a very dumb question to ask but that seemed the only question that would pop in his head in that moment.

"Y-Yeah, I think I'm okay" came the short reply.

Kyoya frowned at the redheads actions and slowly pulled him to his chest. He tightened the embrace and felt relieved when Gingka hugged back. He put his hand on Gingka's soft hair and played with it for a bit before saying: "Gingka, tell me, I don't like seeing you like this"

"I just…….."

"Just what?"

"I mean, if he really wanted to stab you then he would've. But...But what if he did? I don't know what I would do if you got stabbed because of me. Just because I can't protect myself from him. I blame myself and only myself for what happened"

Kyoya's eyes were wide open at the redhead's sudden confession. It wasn't his fault, if anyone was to blame it would be Hotaru only.

He tightened his hold on the redhead before saying: "Gingka, Listen… It's not your fault what so ever, okay? Hotaru is just trying to make you feel guilty so he can have his way with you which is not ever gonna happen. How many times do I have to tell you that you're safe with me? Even though he touches you and does all that crap, I will never let him go that far and rape you"

Kyoya mentally kicked himself for saying the word 'rape' to Gingka, but he had to make it clear to him if he's ever going to understand Kyoya's words clearly. Kyoya may be too late at times but he promised himself and Gingka that nobody would ever go that far and possibly rape him. If anyone is going to get in Gingka's pans, it's going to be him. And he'll make sure that it's all full with emotions, love and true feelings. Not just pain and pleasure. Even though Kyoya thinks about this stuff, it's not like he loved Gingka for only his looks and body, but he loves Gingka for who he is, and all those 'thoughts' come with those feelings.

"I know, It's just….I just feel like a burden sometimes. I mean, you do have a life, I just don't to get in the way, that's all………. I should go, I caused enough trouble as it is" He broke the hug catching Kyoya off guard and walked to the door. He didn't want to do this, but he wanted the best for Kyoya, and he just got in the way.

But before he could even open the door, Kyoya slammed his hand on the door causing a very loud BANG!!!! He flinched hard and turned around only to be pulled quickly to Kyoya's arms.

"Please Gingka, I don't know what I'll do if you leave. You have to stay, I'll go insane if you go. You're not a burden Gingka, and you never will be"

Gingka gasped at Kyoya's words and actions. Kyoya was begging? Begging him to stay? Gingka then felt more guilty than before and immediately regretted what he said and hugged Kyoya back saying: "I'll stay Kyoya! I'll never leave you! Forget what I said, I never wanted to leave you anyway"

Kyoya looked at Gingka's face seeing a couple of tears forming in Gingka's eyes. He brought his hand and slowly wiped away Gingka's tears away. He held the back of Gingka's head and pulled it to rest on his shoulder. Gingka nuzzled in. Kyoya couldn't help but blush at how close he was to him. He felt like this was the right time to confess his feelings to Gingka, but something told him that he should wait. Even though he really wanted to confess right now in the embrace, he knew that he just can't take advantage of the situation. So with the pain in his heart, he settled in the embrace and they hugged each other not even bothering to think of how inappropriate it is for two guys that are only (for now) friends to be seen hugging each other for that long. Not one of them wanted to end the hug, both of them felt safe in the others' arms and they didn't mind dying that way.

'I would die if it was in your arms' They both thought at the same time, but little did they know that that might happen.

So What did you think? I'm aiming for a couple more chapters than I'll be done and move on to my other stories.

Please review and maybe give a few suggestions and ideas for what you want to happen in the next chapters.

I hope you enjoyed reading and actually like reading it.

Thanks for your continuous support and I'll make sure to update more often, but it's really hard to type and publish when you do it on a phone.
