Chapter 15: Caught

"Where are you going all dressed up?" Yuu questions as his eyes rake over Guren's suit. He even has on a tie.

"Work."

"Work doesn't make you wear a suit."

"It does when it requires going undercover at someone's house party."

"Since when do 'house parties' have a dress code?"

"Since they're fancy, I don't know," he snaps.

"Sheesh, calm down," Yuu raises his hands placatingly.

"Well, stop with the twenty questions."

"...One more?"

He sighs, "What is it, Yuu?"

"What about dinner?"

"I'm eating there."

"But...food…"

"They're sure to have plenty, I can grab a few bites in between work."

"Me?"

"You know how to cook, I made sure of it."

"You're leaving your only son home alone to fend for himself while you and Shinya go on another date." He pauses, "I thought I was worth more to you than that."

"It's not a date, it's work."

"That's all you have to say?"

Guren gives his loose tank top and knee length shorts a once over, "I wouldn't take you anywhere like that."

"I can change!" Yuu perks up, "You let me come with you before, I won't cause any problems, promise!"

"You don't even want to help, you just want the free food because you're too lazy to cook for yourself."

"Well duh. You're eating it too."

"I'm also working undercover."

"There will be a ton of people there! I'll grab some food and sneak off, no one will even notice I'm there."

"Hurry up."

"Yes!"

Yuu bolts upstairs and sifts through his closet for something that will pass Guren's inspection, finally settling on slacks and a loose polo. Not his favorite type of clothing, but he'll wear it for free food.

He returns downstairs just as Shinya enters, dressed just as nice as Guren, but with the addition of a smile. "I take it you're coming with us, Yuu?"

"Yeah, but don't worry. I'll make sure to leave you two with plenty of time to yourselves."

"It's not a date," Guren growls out.

"No, it's not," Shinya agrees. "Although don't act like you'd be so against it if it was."

"If you're not in the car with me, I'm leaving you."

"Come on, Yuu, before your stubborn dad annoys us both."

He shrugs and follows Shinya to the car, he couldn't care less about whatever they're going through now. His own love life is finally stabilizing, no way is he thinking about theirs, one relationship is complicated enough for him.

Twenty minutes later, they arrive in front of a large two story house with a wide yard and a long line of cars. Yuu's eyes light up, perfect! He can grab something and probably disappear off into a back room and watch TV the rest of the night.

Upon entering the front door, Guren and Shinya are immediately waylaid with greetings and he diverts to the buffet table, filling up a plate with a mix of western and Japanese food before settling into a corner out of the way to people watch. There's no one he recognizes and he's debating making a second trip for desserts when a slice of cake is shoved under his nose.

Startled green eyes look up to see the man from a few months ago with red hair and the mildly curious expression. "You kept staring at the cake, I figured you wanted a slice."

Yuu gingerly takes the plate, "Thanks...Crowley?"

"Yes...you're the one from the club, right?"

"Yeah."

"Mikaela brought you? Why did he leave you over here alone?"

"Mikaela's here? I came with my dad."

"Your...dad?"

"Yeah, I..." Crowley's gone, disappearing with a flap of his cloak before Yuu can even finish his sentence. "Uh...okay, that was weird."

He takes a forkful of cake, delicious. But more importantly, Mika is here and he wants to find him. If I was Mika where would I be? Probably wherever there's the most people to flirt with. No...he said he wouldn't do that anymore. Yuu finishes off the cake, dumps his plates, and considers whether anyone would care if he snuck a drink before finding Mika. He's pretty sure every drink here is alcoholic except the water, but no one's really paying attention to him anyway.

Finally deciding that yes, he can get away with it, Yuu doesn't even manage more than a swallow before arms slip around his waist from behind and Yuu feels a head settle atop his own, "Hey, Yuu-chan."

"Mika!"

"Yep."

"What are you doing here?" Yuu struggles to turn around and face him, but Mikaela holds him tight against his chest.

"I should be asking you that."

"My dad and Shinya have business here. I just tagged along for the free food."

"This is Ferid's house and his party, so of course he invited me."

"Let me see you."

"Why?"

"Because I want to!"

Mikaela turns him around and Yuu smiles at him, taking in the sparkle of the blonde's blue eyes and playful grin. "What are you so happy for?"

"I just am." He leans down for a kiss and despite their surroundings, Yuu pushes up to kiss him back. "I have a surprise for you," Mikaela murmurs into their kiss.

"What is it?"

"Come upstairs and I'll tell you. Wouldn't want your dad to see us, would we?"

Yuu glances around to make sure they won't be spotted and nods, letting Mikaela take his hand and lead him to a room upstairs.

"I saw Crowley here."

"He and Ferid are friends, that makes sense."

"He took off the minute I said I was here with my dad and not you."

Mikaela laughs, "Sounds like him. He probably didn't want to answer any questions."

"What? I wasn't going to ask him anything."

"Not from you, but from your dad. Like why does this man know my son? Were you really going to say because I went to his club?"

"Ah...no."

"Exactly, it would lead to a lot of other questions that Crowley doesn't want to deal with, he mainly keeps to himself. It was easier to just walk away."

Yuu nods, giving Mikaela a questioning look when he's pulled over, "What's my surprise?"

"I'll tell you after," he answers, eyes roaming over Yuu's body appreciatively and tugging him even closer.

"Mika...did you lie to me just to get me upstairs with you?"

"Nope, I really have a surprise for you."

Yuu watches as he rummages through a drawer before pulling out a small bottle of lube, "Why is that there?"

"It's Ferid's house, he has lube all over."

"I'm not sure I even want to know why."

"You don't, come here."

"Mika...is this a good idea? This is Ferid's house."

"Trust me, Ferid would be the last person to care. Besides, we won't go all the way."

"Then what do you need lube for?"

"It'll be a surprise too," he answers before tugging Yuu over by his shirt and kissing him. "Relax, Ferid's too busy entertaining his guests downstairs to wander up here."

"...Be quick."

"You always are."

"Hey, that's no-"

Mikaela cuts him off with a kiss, easily slipping his tongue past his lips, and Yuu sighs, fingers catching around his torso to pull him tighter. He fidgets uncomfortably when hands begin expertly undoing his pants and Mikaela kisses him harder in response, sucking on his bottom lip to distract him.

He still can't help flinching with the cool air hits his bare legs and Mikaela gives his ass a squeeze before dragging his hand around to cup him through the thin fabric and Yuu shudders as fingers slowly start to stroke him.

Yuu rocks his hips into Mikaela's hands, fighting the urge to pull down his boxers because he knows he'll get laughed at for being impatient. He groans in annoyance when Mikaela moves his hands away, leaving him half hard and ready for more. Just as he thought, he gets an amused chuckle and he considers biting Mikaela's tongue in retaliation until his boxers are pulled down, exposing the entirety of his lower body to the room.

He grinds himself into the blonde's thigh, both to cover himself and give him the friction he desires. "You're so impatient, Yuu-chan. Spread your legs a little more." He obeys, using the other male for balance and leaning forward as he steps out wider.

The sensation of a slick finger pushing into his entrance makes him break the kiss in surprise, but it doesn't seem like Mikaela's interested in stretching him. Instead, pressing his finger farther and farther in until he brushes against Yuu's favorite spot.

His dick loses all softness from the brief spark of pleasure and he presses roughly into the firmness of Mikaela's torso. He's torn between the need to rub himself against Mikaela or push back to hit that spot again.

Mikaela pushes a second finger and Yuu hisses at the slight sting burying his face into the blonde's chest. "Ngh...Mika...deeper," he urges, ignoring the slight pain and rotating his hips back to find that perfect position.

"Who knew you'd be so easy to convince?"

"Shut up, not there," Yuu wiggles his hips again in an attempt to stop Mikaela from playing around and touch him where he wants.

"Mmm."

"Ah! Yes...there," Yuu groans aloud and pushes his hips back again. Mikaela grins fondly at the expression of ecstasy on Yuu's face as he pushes his fingers against the younger boy's prostate. Yuu's erection is pressing roughly into his stomach as Yuu ruts forcefully against him. Hormones means Yuu is always easily turned on and sensitive to touch, he can feel Yuu's hardness leaking against his shirt, staining it with every thrust against him. He wraps a hand around Yuu's length and the younger boy hums in pleasure, fingers sliding up to pull him into another kiss.

Yuu firmly presses his lips to Mikaela's to keep his groans inside. The last thing he wants is a curious passerby walking in. He spreads his legs a little wider to give Mikaela more room to work with. It feels nice, being here with Mikaela kissing him and making him feel good. Pressure pressing so deliciously inside him without having to take Mikaela's entire length inside him because honestly it still kind of hurts. Although, he feels so good right now if the other boy took off his clothes and asked him, he'd probably say yes.

In fact...Yuu pulls his fingers away from blonde strands to wander up his shirt, feeling the smooth hard planes slide warmly under his fingertips. He bites his lips as he feels Mikaela's thumb ghost over the tip of his cock, smearing precome down the sides. The double doses of pleasure are making him painfully hard and he wants to come. Preferably all over the blonde's stomach, payback for the beach and to mark him as his.

Yuu lifts up on his toes to sink his teeth into Mikaela's neck, sucking harshly when he winces. Mikaela's his, no one should think he's available. Yuu sucks in a breath, panting heavily against his neck, he's close and ready for release, then he wants to try taking Mikaela into his mouth again. This time with himself in control.

His balls tighten and his body tenses, then...nothing. Yuu groans in displeasure at Mikaela's lack of movement. He strains his hips backwards on Mikaela's still fingers while trying to force his dick through the tight grip that's starting to border on painful. "Mika what the...why did you…?"

Yuu glances up to see the blonde's stricken expression and only then does his brain register the sound of a door clicking open from a few seconds ago. He slowly turns around in shock, blatantly aware of the situation he's been caught in, and finds himself caught in a wide eyed violet gaze. "G-Guren!" His stomach drops so fast, it aches. I'm fucking screwed.

"Fuck!" Mikaela curses, the realization of who's caught them causing him to snatch his fingers out of Yuu's ass as quickly as possible and drop his dick like it's on fire.

Yuu yanks his pants up and turns to Guren with a mouth dry as cotton, "Guren...uh...haha, it's um...not what you think." He mumbles nervously.

"Who the fuck is this, Yuu?" Guren questions in a tone laced with threat.

"Umm...Mikaela."

"You didn't say you were having sex with him. How old is this piece of shit?"

"Eighteen…"

"You're lying."

"I'm not."

"Yes, you are. You do that thing with your ears."

"I don't!"

"Noted."

"Shut up, Mika!"

"Yes, shut up. What the hell do you think you're doing with my son?"

"Nothing much," Mikaela answers, shifting to put Yuu behind him which doesn't go unnoticed by Guren.

"How old are you?"

"..."

"Guren…" Yuu pleads, desperately trying to dissolve the tension.

"HOW OLD?"

"Twenty two."

Yuu flashes him a look of panic when Guren steps forward, "You piece of shit, he's sixteen!"

"Old enough to spread his legs," Mikaela replies.

"Mika!" Guren grabs him by the shirt and yanks him forward. "Wait, don't!" Yuu tries to warn, but it's too late. Mikaela grabs Guren by the wrist and twists his arm around his back, easily incapacitating him, and pinning him to the floor. "...He takes karate."

Yuu watches as the older male exhales heavily through his nose before glaring up at him, his eyes promising punishment. "Yuu, get this asshole off me."

"Mika?"

"I don't think it's a good idea Yuu-chan."

"I think you're making it worse."

All three heads turn towards the sound of the door creaking open. "Guren?" Shinya questions, stepping into the room and taking in the scene. "What's going...oh…" He glances between Mikaela and Yuu with pursed lips, "Is this your friend, Yuu?"

"Um...yeah," Yuu answers and winces when his voice comes out several octaves higher than usual.

"The hell he is!" Guren argues, struggling against the blonde's tight grip. "Don't just stand there, do something! Partner."

"Can you let him go please?"

"He might attack me."

"He won't. I promise."

"Shinya!"

Shinya sighs and looks back towards Mikaela, "You should leave. I don't think you want to be here when you let him go."

Mikaela stares back, contemplating internally before leaning over and kissing Yuu briefly, ignoring Guren's noise of rage. "Bye, Yuu-chan."

There's silence throughout the room once the blonde disappears out the door. Guren gets up, ignoring Shinya's hand, and sends a withering glare at Yuu, "Let's go."

"But…"

"Let's fucking go!"

"Right."

It's silent on the way home, but by no means is it comfortable. The tension is thick and Guren hasn't said a word since they left Ferid's house. He knows though, he knows it's coming. More than likely, Guren's just waiting until there aren't any witnesses around.

...And he proves to be right. The minute the door shuts behind them, Guren is shaking him before shoving him away and Yuu takes a seat, staring steadily at the table as Guren yells, occasionally glancing up at Shinya who's sitting on the counter eating a pint of ice cream and watching the scene passively. Man, he wishes he could take Shinya's spot right now.

"Yuu, look at me, not him! What were you thinking?!"

"Well…he was hot."

Shinya muffles a snort and Guren shoots him a scathing look before turning back around. "That's it? 'He was hot.' Tell me there's more."

"Did you see him?"

"Not the time for jokes," he answers sharply.

"I don't know what you want me to say. I like him."

"He's twenty two."

"Yeah, I know. I think about that a lot, but it's not really that big a deal, you know?"

"No, I don't know."

"I mean I'm fine. He's not doing anything weird."

"Weird? I just caught him fingering you! That's both weird and impossible to get out of my head! That's not an image I ever wanted to see."

It was a lot more embarrassing for me than you. How am I supposed to live down my own dad walking in on that? "You could've knocked…"

"And I wouldn't have even known you were there if you hadn't been moaning so loudly."

Fucking hell, it gets worse. Yuu bites his lip and looks away with red cheeks, "Sorry."

"That's what you apologize for?"

"Look," Yuu sighs. "We've been dating for a while now. That wasn't the first time we've done...stuff."

"I don't want to hear this."

"I'm saying it's not as big a deal as you think it is. I probably should have told him no since we were at someone else's house. It's just hard to say no sometimes."

"And that's why it's a problem, he could have you doing anything."

"..."

"Apparently he already does. I take it you've already slept with him."

"Yeah…"

"You're such an idiot. Why couldn't you date someone nice, like Yoichi? What happened with your date?"

"It wasn't a date."

"Did he know that?"

"No, but it didn't matter. I was already with Mika by then."

"You know you're going to have to break up with him, right?"

"But why? He'll replace me!" Guren stares at him silently. "He will."

"Yuu...if that's your first worry, then I'm making the right choice."

"No, you're not!"

"You think he can replace you that easily?"

"He can."

"If he loves you, then the answer should be no. Yoichi isn't a substitute for Mikaela, so why should just anyone be able to replace you? Clearly you feel that you're far more invested than he is."

"That's not...what I said."

"Yes you did. You think he can just find someone to replace you. You think you're expendable to him. What kind of relationship is that?"

"You're twisting my words!"

"No, I'm making you think about what you're saying. I don't want you in a relationship where you feel worthless."

"I don't!"

"So, you're breaking up with him," he continues on, ignoring Yuu's words. "Also lessons are paused. Behave and maybe you can start them again later."

Yuu's fists clench on the table, "Guren you're not being fair. You can't take away both things! I told you I'm fine."

"And I told you exactly why I am."

"I'm sixteen!"

"Yet, you still don't have enough common sense not to have sex at someone else's house with your dad downstairs," he responds flatly.

"But, that was once! It won't happen again!"

"I know it won't because you're breaking up with him."

"Guren-"

"Stay away from him and I won't call the cops." Yuu's mouth falls open and he blinks, unsure of how to respond. Guren gives a victorious smirk, but the minute Yuu storms off, his expression drops and he rounds on Shinya, promptly smacking him off the counter.

"Ow! What the fuck, Guren?" Shinya exclaims, using his free hand to hold his shoulder. "The hell's your problem?"

"You knew!"

"What?"

"The blondies! I'm not an idiot!"

"Oh."

"That's all you have to say?!"

"I didn't feel it was my place to come in between a father and his son. It was something you two had to work out for yourselves."

"I can't work out what I don't know, Shinya," he mutters in annoyance.

"But, you know now, right?"

"No thanks to you," Guren responds sarcastically.

"Look," Shinya sighs. "Yes I knew, but Yuu seemed okay and I was a little worried. Then after a few days he cheered up, so I assumed everything was fine."

"Wait, he was grouchy because of Mikaela that time."

"Yes."

Guren runs his hands through his hair in frustration, "You're seriously the worst partner ever."

"I am not."

"I'll see you tomorrow," he responds with a pointed glance towards the door.

"You're kicking me out?"

"Yes, it's late and I'm tired."

"Just remember all the good I've done since I started. Just remember that."

Guren gives him an unimpressed look and nods towards the door, watching until the ashen haired male shuts the door after himself. He leans back against the couch with a sigh, it's been one hell of a night.

~~~~~
The first thing Yuu does when he gets upstairs is grab his phone to text Mikaela. He's older and wiser, maybe he can say something to convince Guren to change his mind.

Y: You home?

M: ofc, that kind of killed the party for me. You okay?

Y: umm...yeah, but gurens not happy

M: you thought he would be?

Y: no, but he was pissed

M: grounded again?

Y: actually no

M: …..

Y: yeah, so he told me to break up with you

M: ah

Y: he said he'd call the cops if i didn't

M: AH

Y: say something!

M: well, i would like to avoid jail…

Y: mika!

M: what?

Y: You're older and smart, tell me what to do

M: you already know what you have to do, you just dont want to do it

Y: ofc i dont want to break up with you, we just got together! :( its not fair

M: i doubt its permanent

Y: he cancelled my lessons too

M: ouch

Y: mika...i dont want to break up with you

M: i love you too, yuu-chan

Yuu feels his cheeks warm and can't help the smile that breaks out.

Y: then what am i supposed to do?

M: wait it out, then talk to him again in a few weeks, maybe he'll be more open to it by then

Y: maybe you could talk to him?

M: he'd probably rip my face off if he saw me now

Y: right… Yuu pauses, fingers hovering over the screen, and replaying Guren's words. Is he really afraid of being replaced so easily? you'd wait, right?

M: you know...i have a very healthy libido, you KNOW this...i just, i dont know if i can handle another wait

Y: is sex the most important thing?

M: clearly not, i waited forever for you

Y: then wait a little longer if you're so sure it's only temporary!

M: I'll see what i can do. Night yuu-chan

Y: night

Yuu drops the phone beside him on the bed and scoots out of his pants before tossing them over the side and sliding under the covers. Maybe this is all a bad dream.

~~~~~
Mikaela sighs as he reads Yuu's final text. Never did he stop to think that Yuu's father would walk in on them. That was the worst possible scenario he could never imagine. How could I be so stupid?

The minute Yuu had muttered 'Guren,' it all came crashing down. That one name ruined everything. Anyone else he could have played off his shock, hell he could have just told them to get out and continued, but Yuu's dad? Not a chance.

Who knows what'll happen now. Despite what he told Yuu, he doesn't believe Guren will be more open to it later. In fact, he'll probably be against it even more if everything comes out. Something, he strongly does not want to happen.

Mikaela takes the tickets out of the envelope and lets his eyes scan over them, two shinkansen tickets to visit his mother. Yuu would have loved to go and it probably would have given the younger boy the reassurance he needed that they were serious. But now, well...so much for that.

Blonde bangs ruffle as he lets out a sigh, letting the tickets flutter to the ground and tilting his head back to rest against the couch. What now? The chances of Guren getting over it are slim at best, especially with the way he found out. And just when they had worked everything out too…

Rene drops onto the couch next to him with a drink, "I heard."

"You what?"

"I heard about what happened at the party."

Mikaela looks him over with narrowed eyes, "How?"

"I forget how naive you are sometimes," Rene sighs. "For future reference, Ferid keeps cameras in his house. You shouldn't be surprised he had one on in the room you were in."

"Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom," he groans. "God, that cannot get out."

"Ferid took delight in watching the video."

"He watched it?!"

"How else did you think I knew?"

"I dunno, he saw two seconds and turned it off."

"Nope, he watched from beginning to end. He had to when you ran off and Yuu's dad came storming downstairs with Yuu."

"Jeezus."

Rene nudges one of the tickets with his toe and looks back to him, "So, trip cancelled then?"

"Sadly."

"Krul will be disappointed."

"She's not the only one."
