New chapter! Enjoy!

Oh, I almost forgot, I own nothing from these gorgeous beings.

Ps. Careful, a steamy moment is included in this story. Stay away! Lol. I know you'll like it.


"Yuki.." Tezuka said it again one more time.

Fuji held back to answer him, unlike he used to do. There was no way out of it now, he had to face it whether he liked it or not.

"Tezuka-san.." His voice was a little hoarse from his yelling before.

"I'm sure you realize it now after hearing what I said just now. I'm sorry for deceiving you. I truly am." He lowered his eyes to his hands on Tezuka's chest, "I don't ask for forgiveness since I know it was the worst thing to do to someone. What Sei-chan did just now, I will talk to him. I will make sure that he won't betray your feeling anymore. Therefore.." He tilted his head upward.

Tezuka stared at him intently and Fuji thought his heart wouldn't be able to beat faster anymore. His breath came short and Tezuka then put his hand on Fuji's check. "You are Yuki."

"No, I am not. I'm not Sei-chan, as you know I am his cousin and together we deceived you when you were hospitalized. I'm sorry, Tezuka-san."

Tezuka suddenly hugged him tightly and chanted 'Yuki' endlessly. Fuji didn't reply his hug since his hands were between his and Tezuka's chest. He was confused by Tezuka's words.

Did Tezuka accidentally bump into something on his head that made him call me Yuki? Did he eat something bad that made him hallucinating that I am my cousin?

Fuji tried to pushed Tezuka away, "Tezuka-san.. Tezuka-san.. I'm not Yuki. I am Fuji!" Fuji felt hurt that even if Tezuka saw his cousin with another man yet he still called Sei-chan's name. He felt something tugged his heart hard and it hurt so much.

"No, you are Yuki. You always been and always will be." Tezuka said seriously.

Fuji chuckled bitterly, "No, Tezuka-san, I am Fuji and my cousin is Yuki." He explained.

Tezuka frowned, "I know and he is Yukimura Seiichi. ... I have to tell you something." He put his hand on Fuji's shoulders.

"I know about you and your cousin plan." He continued.

Fuji felt his blood dried from his face, "What.. When.."

"It's on the second day of your visiting."

"Pardon?"

###

The man appeared after one week of his hospitalized. He announced thay he was Yukimura, his boyfriend. Tezuka hated him. He hated him because Yukimura appeared after a long time. Didn't he know how miserable he was? He missed their togetherness, he missed playing tennis with the man and missed how they shared their thoughts about the matches.

Yet, something was wrong. Everything the man had was different from Yukimura. At the first, Tezuka hated him because he was Yukimura but after a long conversation with the man, he realized that the man wasn't Yukimura. Tezuka wasn't a genius but he wasn't an idiot, too. The Yukimura he knew would spend all of his time talking about Genichirou this or Genichirou that. He also asked about Genichirou whenever he found something he didn't know about his dark haired cousin but this man did the opposite things. His answers about Genichirou were ambiguous and he didn't try to correct Tezuka. Yet, the man knew about Yukimura's family so Tezuka concluded that the man knew Yukimura as well. He could be Yukimura's friend or family.

Yukimura always smelled like flower, earth and sun but this man smelled like apple, citrus and vanilla. Tezuka somehow loved it more. The man's voice is soft as Yukimura but unlike Yukimura chirping voice, the man's voice was sweeter and melodious. He loved this voice more, too. He knew it was impossible but that was what happened.

And that irritated him more.

He did many mischief things to the man. He told him some impossible orders to do. He wanted to make the man suffered. He wanted to make the man surrendered and asked for his forgiveness. How dare he and Yukimura deceived him! A Tezuka no less!

Tezuka knew the man came silently at night to see him. He did something but Tezuka didn't know what. He just left the man alone. He didn't want to talk to the man when he came in the afternoon, but the man didn't give up. He tried to befriended with him.

Tezuka heard about the rooftop from the nurse, they always talked about it whenever they assembled in his room. They thought he was sleeping but then again nobody knew whether he was sleeping or awake. He could just laid there and they would think that he was sleeping. He was curious about that place, he also fed up about his condition and his room. He never thought that he would successed in his first try reaching the rooftop. He felt refreshed and peaceful on the rooftop and then suddenly the nurse brought him back to his room.

The man's anger toward him made him rethinking about his problem. He always hated his life, he envied his friends for having complete family, a loving family and friends around them. The man's words made him realized that there were many kinds of love and truthfully he was loved by many people, it was him who brushed them away. He was too proud of himself.

His talk to his parents also made him knew that the man didn't do all of the things to gain Tezuka's attention, he wanted Tezuka to appreciate people who love him more and be more attentive to people around him, too.

Tezuka wanted to curse the man but he didn't, he thanked the man instead. After spending ridiculously short time with the man, one night after the man's visit, Tezuka thought deeper and finally found a new way to see the man. Tezuka thought the man was like snow, he covered the earth as if it was torturing the earth but it was the opposite, the snow covered the earth so the earth could be ready when the spring come. It was covering the filthy earth with its purity and brought the impurity away when the spring came.

For Tezuka he was the filthy earth and the man was the snow. His Yuki. His sweet Yuki. He liked how it sounded. Tezuka wanted to know Yuki more, his real name, his family, his hobbies, his happy or sad moments. He wanted to tell Yuki that he knew he wasn't Yukimura and that was fine for him but he didn't do it. He was afraid that Yuki would run away and he wouldn't be able to catch him fast. If that happened he would lose someone important to him. He wouldn't do something so recklessly. He would wait the right time to tell the man, Yuki.

Tezuka felt better now, no, better than that. For the first time after his hospitalized he felt optimistic. He waited Yuki to come back to him for days but the man didn't turn up. He asked the nurse about the man named Yuki but she didn't know. Where was he? He waited patiently while worrying that Yuki would never come anymore. He regretted all his behavior toward the man, especially their last argument.

That night he didn't go to sleep. He laid down his bed and waited, he hoped Yuki would come just like usual. If he didn't appear.. Well, drastic times call the drastic measures. He would do his best to reach out to Yuki.

His hope was granted. Yuki did appear that night and Tezuka thanked the god silently. When he called for Yuki he knew that the man would run anytime soon so he tried to walk to the door, to stop the man. He heard the opened door and afraid that Yuki had gone. He rushed to catch Yuki and stumbled the chair which brought Yuki back to him. He was once again be grateful to the deities above to help him. Yuki helped him back to his bed and he felt happy to feel Yuki again.

He couldn't stop himself to touch the man. He was so soft, so warm and so delicate. He cried for Tezuka that night and melted all of Tezuka coldness toward him. Nobody had cried for him, not even his parents. He kissed him as a gratitude at first but Yuki's smell and sweetness were like a drug to him, they made him drunk. He liked it. He called for his Yuki and suddenly the man stopped him. He didn't want to but he relented. He still had many chances to win over the man. He was content with that, that time.

###

The doctor told him that they could open his bandage soon and if his condition was good enough he would be discharged quicker. Tezuka was delighted. He couldn't wait to tell Yuki about it.

Yuki was told by the nurse, how could they told Yuki before himself? Tezuka wanted to throw a tantrum but he declined to do so.

"When I am discharged, will you like to go on a date with me, Yuki?" Tezuka asked hesitantly after a while.

He would end his relationship with Yukimura and then he would ask Yuki to be his and his only. He knew it wasn't easy but if it was easy then it wasn't worth it.

There was no response from Yuki, Tezuka added to convince the man, "Well, we can do it as double celebration, as my discharging one and my birthday, too."

This time Yuki replied more enthusiastic. "Your birthday?"

"Aa.." Tezuka relaxed that he could finally attract Yuki's attention.

"When is it?"

"This Sunday."

"The day after tomorrow, ne? Oh! What about we celebrate it first? It's not right not to celebrate it on the day. Not everyone can celebrate his birthday every year, you know. You have to be grateful for it."

Tezuka nodded, "If you say so." as long as Yuki was still there with him.

###

Yuki made a long list about how to spend his birthday. He declined the list politely. He didn't share his birthday with Yuki so he could celebrate it in the crowd, he wanted only his Yuki. He didn't need anything else.

Yuki laid next to him and yawned again. Tezuka asked him to sleep but the man was hesitated. Tezuka convinced him that he would wake the man up on time before the last train. Yuki slept soundly that day. Tezuka spent his time petting Yuki's smooth and silky hair. Yuki smelled heavenly and Tezuka thought he would never get bored with it. He combed his fingers through Yuki's hair. His hand touched the side of Yuki's face. His cheek was so smooth and pliant. Tezuka caressed it lightly, afraid to wake the man up. He continued his action to the jaw then neck and his nape, ended on this ear. He blushed thinking that what he did was one kind of harassment. His blush dissappeared immediately when he found something behind Yuki's left ear, a quite big scar. Tezuka touched it carefully, he knew Yukimura didn't have any scar in his head. He saw his ears when the blunett put off his head band after tennis match. Well, this man wasn't Yukimura for sure now. How did he get this scar? Did something happen to Yuki? Did he have more scars in his body? Would Yuki tell him if he asked?

Tezuka put his curiosity away for now. He was sure that Yuki would feel uncomfortable talking about his scar to someone he didn't really know. He would ask again in the future when Yuki was his and he would make sure that it would happen.

He scooted down next to Yuki and put his arms around the smaller man. He inhaled Yuki's smell before his sleep take over.

The kiss on his birthday was the best present he had ever got so far. He was startled by Yuki's kiss but he loved it so much and he wouldn't even think to exchange it with something else.

They parted away that evening. Yuki promised him to come back the next day when Tezuka would open his bandage. He couldn't wait to see Yuki by his own eyes. He was eager to know what color of his hair, his eyes, his lips, his skin, everything about Yuki was still a mystery for him. He had imagined Yuki appearance in his head, a black haired Yuki, a blunett Yuki like his cousin, but his eyes were the most important part which he wanted to know because eyes were the window of someone's soul.

Yuki didn't appear the next day.

Yukimura did.

He appeared with his cousin, hand in hand. "Tezuka, there is something I want to tell you."

Tezuka wasn't surprised by then. "Yukimura." Long before he saw them, he already sensed the intimate vibration between them. He dismissed that and continued to pursue Yukimura. Now after he thought again, what did he see in Yukimura which attract him?

Yukimura had soft voice but Yuki's was more melodious, Yukimura was smart so did Yuki but when he was with Yuki they had more things in common. Whenever he spent his time with Yukimura, he never thought anything than having a match with that man. When he was with Yuki, well, there were many things he wanted to explore with the sweet-voice man. He missed him every minute passed. He never got enough of that man.

Now when he saw his cousin with Yukimura he didn't feel anything, everything he had for Yukimura already evaporated and gone.

"Tezuka.. About our relationship. I.. I don't think we can continue this. I love.. I love someone else. I don't want to deceive my own feeling anymore. I love him more that my own life and I can't live without him. So.. Can we.. Uh.. end this relationship..now?" Yukimura stammered in each word.

Tezuka sat calmly on the edge of his bed with his legs touch the floor, and saw the men. "Why? Didn't you the one who suggest it? I plainly followed your play and now you want to end it?" Tezuka tilted his head.

Yukimura looked uncomfortable, he glanced at Sanada but the man looked straight to Tezuka. "I know. I was wrong and I'm sorry. I don't know that my joke will cause many problems between us. I hope you can let me go, he doesn't want to accept me unless I end my relationship with you."

Tezuka didn't need to ask who the man since Tezuka already knew about that man, Yukimura knew and hell, even Sanada knew what and who they were talking about.

"And if I don't want to?" Tezuka decided to torture Yukimura and Genichirou more for what they had done to him.

"I.. Why?"

"I don't know. It's fair for me, you made me into this unwanted relationship based on your claim just now not mine, and when I think I am used to it already, and now you want to end it. Why?" He nodded to Yukimura.

"Because I know this relationship can't last any longer. I can't. I'm sorry." Yukimura bit his lips and shivered.

Yukimura used the "I'm sorry" so easily and the words lost its meaning. Tezuka chuckled, "It's funny because it wasn't what 'you' said yesterday. 'You' said 'you' will be with me. How can you forget about it already? moreover talking about loving someone else. Did you lie to me yesterday?"

"I.. When.. I wasn't.." Yukimura confused and shook his head slowly, he looked at Sanada with a pleading stare. Sanada had to put his hands around Yukimura's to keep him balanced

"Well, we have two possibilities here. First, you really got an accident on your head and forgot it after that or.."

"Or.." Tezuka continued, "Or that wasn't you. It was someone else." Tezuka ended his speech with a low voice to press his point.

Yukimura gasped and fell into Sanada's arms.

"Tezuka.." Sanada said for the first time since he stepped into the room. He held Yukimura protectively as if Tezuka had stabbed Yukimura by a sword rather than words.

"A name." Tezuka said calmly and ignored his cousin.

"What?" Yukimura whispered.

"Give me his name and I'll let this go."

Yukimura shook his head once again and sobbed, "I.. I can't.. I can't.. I promised him. I promised."

Tezuka bent his hands in front of his chest, "We are going no where, then. I'll let you go as long as you give his name or.. We can continue being in this hellish relationship where no one wants to."

Tezuka put a bet in his offers. He knew if he asked about Yuki to Yukimura, that man would just brushed him away or even lied to him about Yuki. If his little knowledge about Yukimura hadn't altered yet, that man would use every opportunity to gain his own benefit even if he had to throw away something else. Tezuka was sure about it.

"Kunimitsu, that's enough." Sanada tried to reprimand him.

"Why? I think I have a right in this relationship. I want to ask you instead, what is your right to talk here?" Tezuka asked.

Sanada was managing his anger toward his cousin. He tried his best not to yell because he was half to be blamed, too.

"I'm sorry, Tezuka. I can't. Can't we just talk about us?"

"Which part of 'us' do you want to talk about? The begging part from my side or your side?" Tezuka now felt an anger toward the blunett, his appearance made his Yuki had to part away from him. He had to blame himself, too. If he didn't too enjoying Yuki's presence and waited too long in revealing the truth, they wouldn't be in this condition.

He sighed.

"He is someone precious to me, I can't tell you."

"Yet, you asked him to replace you and came here. Are you sure that you aren't taking an advantage of him?"

"Tezuka!" Sanada yelled from Yukimura's side and walked fast to Tezuka's bed. He threw a punch toward Tezuka and Tezuka dodged him. He caught Sanada's hand and bent it to his back. He thanked his dad inwardly for his dad's self safety lessons.

"Gen-chan!" Yukimura ran to Sanada side and tried to help him, "Let him go, Tezuka!"

Tezuka pushed them aside. Sanada massaged his wrist. "Don't do this, Kunimitsu. Seiichi has just released from hospital. He got another asthma attack and his condition isn't too good yet."

Like I care, Tezuka said in his head but he said, "Just give me the name and I will let both of you go." Tezuka concluded.

"We can't." It was Sanada who answered.

"Then I can't, too." Tezuka shrugged.

Yukimura looked at Sanada and then sighed. "I'll tell you but only if you can tell me his name."

Tezuka frowned, "If I know about that, then would I ask it to you?"

"I know, but he made me promised that I can't tell you about him. I can, if you can find his name for me. He didn't prohibit me to tell if you know about him first."

Tezuka shook his head in disbelief, Yukimura never failed to surprise him.

"I'll tell you everything about him if you can find his name. Just his name, Tezuka." Yukimura pleaded.

See, still an egoistic man.

"He work at the emergency hotline in the central." Sanada said, clearly trying to help Yukimura.

Seeing no other choices, Tezuka aggred, "Okay. When I find out about him, be prepared to talk a day long and maybe more. Now, I need my rest to find him." He ordered them to go away.

###

Searching for a man who you had never seen before wasn't an easy job. He visited the emergency hotline but the officer couldn't help much because Tezuka didn't have a specific characteristic about Yuki. They needed to keep their employees privacy, too even if someone as important as Tezuka asked.

He asked to the nurse in the hospital but it was futile. Yuki had asked them to keep their mouths shut. He didn't know how Yuki did it, the nurse weren't known with their confidentiality.

Tezuka was sitting in the park which he visited with Yuki. He missed the man, so badly. He had spent a week long to search for the man but he always went back home empty-handed. He looked at the gloomy sky, it matched his mood so perfectly. If only he knew Yuki's name.

A little boy's voice woke him from his daydreaming. He heard this voice before, he was sure about it and followed where the voice came from. He found his way out.

###

"Fuji Syusuke. Now, tell me everything about him and then we can forget about the past." Tezuka said before sitting in front of Yukimura and Sanada in a small cafe near his house.

Yukimura looked at him in a confusion, "How.. How did you?"

Tezuka cut him, "I have my own way. Now, talk."

Yukimura did talk for the next six hours. Tezuka asked everything about Yuki, no, Fuji Syusuke. He was eager to know Fuji more. He even ordered Yukimura to send Fuji's photos to him. When he saw Fuji for the first time, he fell in love again.

Unlike Yukimura, Fuji was brighter. Fortunately he had brunette hair, not black or even bluish like his cousin. His chin length hair was lovely and in almost all of the photos, he closed his eyes. It was his smile which tugged Tezuka's heart hard. Yukimura told him that Fuji had blue eyes.

Tezuka made Yukimura to tell him about Fuji's hobbies, his favorite foods, his literature fondness and even his shoes size. When Tezuka asked about Fuji's scar behind his ear, Yukimura looked sad and his face became dimmer.

"It's something that you should ask by yourself. I have no right to tell you."

Tezuka nodded, "Aa.. I see."

They finished up their problems and ended their relationship well. Tezuka was glad that he could continue his next step to pursue Fuji.

"He isn't here at this moment." Yukimura answered when Tezuka asked about Fuji's whereabouts.

Tezuka frown in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"He has gone to his brother's office in the middle of mountain. I can't contact him for a while now. We need one day to reach there by car. No train and definitely no mobile phone, let alone WiFi." Yukimura explained.

"When.."

Tezuka didn't finish his sentences since Yukimura answered, "On Monday." Tezuka gritted his teeth.

"I don't know when he will come back, either." Yukimura added before Tezuka asked.

"You will, and we will talk again, then." Tezuka said in a serious tone.

###

"When, do you say?"

Yukimura rolled his eyes, Tezuka was so annoying until he didn't have time to use a sarcasm for that man. "This Friday, the last day of February."

Tezuka had asked Yukimura every other day about Fuji's whereabouts and also his news. It was annoying but Yukimura didn't dare to upset the taller man. "I heard from his brother."

"How is he? Is he okay? Does he know about this?"

Yukimura didn't need to ask who Tezuka talked about, Tezuka had talked about Fuji constantly in those months, "He doesn't know. He is too busy to fill the paperwork and assignments. He is fine. He does good, there. The chief of the unit even offers a permanent position there."

Tezuka frowned, Fuji wouldn't take it, would he?

"Don't worry, he loves his job here." Yukimura answered Tezuka's question. Tezuka was surprised that he said his thought aloud.

Sanada brought their orders from the counter and put their orders evenly. He sat next to Yukimura and the smaller man smiled at him.

"Give me his address, regardless." Tezuka said straightforwardly.

Sanada took his drink and sipped, "What do you want with it?"

"I'm going to meet him."

Yukimura groaned, "You can't! You just can't!"

"Why?" Tezuka missed Fuji so much that he would do anything to meet that man.

"He doesn't know that you know about him! What would he think when he see you in front of his door? What are you going to say? Hello, I know you pretended as your cousin but that's okay, let's get together? He will be too frightened to say something let alone be friendly with you." Yukimura sighed and massaged his forehead.

Tezuka see the point. He couldn't be recklessly approach Fuji also, he didn't want Fuji ran away from him again. He had to be careful so when the time was right, Fuji would be his, eventually.

"We can go together." Sanada suggested.

"No, it will be awkward and Syuu-kun will get suspicious. He is a tensai, remember?"

Tezuka nodded, he learned from Yukimura that Fuji was a genius and it would be bad if he catch something suspicious between them.

"I'll go with you." Yukimura said finally, "but I am sure that he won't be happy. Believe me, he will chase us away even before we start the conversation."

"I need to talk to him."

Yukimura was skeptical, "It won't be easy. He is stubborn, more than I am."

Tezuka doubted it. "So what is your suggestion?"

"We need to bring him somewhere he doesn't know and can't get away easily." Yukimura concluded.

"Are you implying to kidnap him?" Tezuka asked

"No! Of course not! Oh, gosh! It is the most frightening topic for him. We mustn't do that! We may bring him to a silent place but he feel safe, it will be better if surrounded with great views, a park or beach?"

"It's still winter, too cold." Tezuka reasoned.

Sanada added, "Amusement park is also out of questions, too noisy."

"Thank you very much for your suggestions." Yukimura spat.

They thought for a moment, "I have a friend who run an onsen. We can reserve it in advance." Sanada said with a little nod.

Yukimura smiled brightly, "That's great, Gen-chan! It's a nice idea. It is secluded and far from the city so Syuu-kun can't go home rightaway. We can delay our trip as long as we need, too."

"If you say so, Seiichi." Sanada smiled back at the man.

Tezuka could see the imaginary love symbols popped out of their heads, "How are we going to convince him? He won't come with us willingly."

Yukimura looked at Tezuka with a confident smile, "Leave it to me!"

###

Fuji's apartment building wasn't too bad but it wasn't too good, too. It was three levels building with a very minimum level of security. The area was very safe, Yukimura said but Tezuka wasn't sure about it.

They waited patiently after Yukimura rang the bell. Tezuka felt his heart beating so fast and he had to keep his composure or he would attack Fuji when he saw him.

The door was opened and there he was. A delicate man who always been in his dream for months now. His photos didn't show his velvety skin or his light brown hair, though. Tezuka exhaled slowly, afraid to attract more attention to him.

Fuji's hair was still a little damp, that meant he had just showered. His clothes were looked so comfortable but his face was somehow pale, was he sick? and his eyes were the most part which he loved about. It was the best cobalt blue he had ever seen.

He didn't hear anything Yukimura talked about, he just stared at Fuji as Yukimura talked, only when Yukimura introduced them he snapped from his thoughts and introduced himself. He wanted to hear and touch Fuji again so he extended his hand, asking a handshake. Fuji took his hand carefully and looked at him with a hesitated face. He was glad that he didn't stick with his decision and come alone or Fuji would be too afraid to meet him. Fuji didn't say nothing but he let it go. He still had plenty time to gain Fuji's trust.

"Ah, I want orange juice, please. Tezuka what would you like?" Yukimura asked.

"I don't need any. Thank you." He wanted to hear Fuji's voice desperately.

Fuji dragged his cousin to the kitchen and Tezuka was left alone. He tried to imagine how was Fuji's live. He was looking at the photos when Yukimura appeared and announced that they had to go. Tezuka disappointed but when he heard that Yukimura managed to convince Fuji going to the onsen trip, all he felt was delight.

Their meeting was brief but he felt relieved, his waiting was going to end soon.

###

"You knew about me that time?"

"Aa.." Tezuka parted their body and nodded.

"Why didn't you say anything?"

"I was afraid.. I was afraid that you might dissappear and I couldn't find you. It did happen, right? One day you were there with me and on the next day you dissappeared just like the smoke." Tezuka said, "I miss you."

"I didn't want to be the relationship wrecker, you already have Sei-chan and I don't think you will need me, too."

"You are wrong. Our relationship wasn't perfect from the start, we weren't meant to be. We are both selfish and because of our selfishness, we caused many problems. We broke up on the day the doctor opened my bandage, I wanted to meet you but you had dissappeared."

"I'm sorry. I think it's better for me to step aside and let you and Sei-chan be back together. You are very attentive and care about Sei-chan, so I know that I would never had a chance to be with you."

"Everything I did, everytime we kissed, every laughed we had, I did it for you, not Yukimura." Tezuka confessed.

Fuji gazed at Tezuka, "So, that means I can touch you like this?" Fuji placed his palm on Tezuka's cheek and caressed it.

"Yes." Tezuka answered.

"I can talk to you whenever I want to, whatever I want to despite me being myself? I don't have to pretend anymore?"

"Yes, because all I want is you, Fuji Syusuke." Tezuka put his hand on Fuji's.

"I miss you, too. Everyday, everytime I saw the moon. I miss you." His tears flew, he felt the burden on his heart was lifted since he could express himself freely, then.

Fuji stood on his tiptoes and hugged Tezuka's shoulder, between his laugh and tears. "I miss you. I miss you." He chanted.

Tezuka hugged Fuji's waist on his left hand and Fuji's head on his right hand. He was happy that finally he could have Fuji in his hands, literally. He inhaled Fuji's familiar scents and exhaled happily. Finally.

They stayed in that position for a minute, just enjoying their presence, "I love you." They blurted collectively when they were untangling from each other.

Fuji laughed while Tezuka was chuckling. The awkward moment had passed and now they were filled with pinkish aura instead. "Can I kiss..you?" it came from Fuji.

Tezuka didn't say anything, he just opened his arms so Fuji could jump into him. Fuji took Tezuka's left hand and tip toeing again, giving Tezuka a little peck on his lips. This wasn't their first kiss but it was the first time they kissed as the true lovers.

The little peck left Tezuka unsatisfied, he put his right hand on Fuji's back, pushed Fuji into his embrace and kissing him like a man in a lonely desert found his oasis. Fuji was indeed his oasis.

Fuji gasped in his kiss and Tezuka deepened his kiss immediately, too impatient to do the opposite. His lips and tongue found a way back home, a place where he had missed for months. Everything about Fuji was Yuki's and everything about Yuki was Fuji's.

Tezuka tasted Fuji's sweetness and his lovely smell, deep down his heart he was afraid that Fuji would be frightened by his fast advance but it didn't happen. Fuji returned his kisses as just eagerly as him. Fuji put his hands on Tezuka's nape and shoulder while Tezuka put his on Fuji's waist and the tree behind the smaller man to give some space to the smaller one. Tezuka grunted when he felt little bites on his tongue, the little devil before him drove him insane. He paid it by squeezing the perky curve of Fuji's behind. Fuji moaned more and gasped in his kiss, his voice came in a little mewl.

They separated to seek out some air, Fuji leaned his head on the tree to catch his breath while Tezuka was kissing his jaw, his neck and suddenly gave a bite on the soft junction between Fuji's neck and shoulder. Fuji gasped by it and his hip thrust into Tezuka's spontaneously, Tezuka grunted when he felt the frictions.

Tezuka wanted to continue but the rational part of him was still working, he didn't want to take Fuji in the middle of jungle let alone in the winter although the spring had been in the corner, peeking at them. He hugged Fuji and tried to settle his breath, "Let's stop it here."

Fuji put his head on Tezuka's chest and heart Tezuka's heart beating as fast as his. "But I don't want to." He whispered, his voice a little husky from their activities.

Tezuka smiled and kissed Fuji's temple. "I know, my love, but I want to show you something. Come with me." He tugged Fuji's hand softly and Fuji followed him although a bit scared by the darkness.

He was scared but he trusted Tezuka with all of his heart, body and soul. He knew that Tezuka would never hurt him.

They walked for another five hundred meters and Fuji could see a river and the water flew endlessly. "It's stil winter, how.."

"The water mostly comes from the hot springs around here, they still flows when the winter has come, it's the main attraction of this onsen. Look." Tezuka pointed at the tree nearby.

"Fireflies!" Fuji gasped, his hands tugged at Tezuka's arm spontaneously.

Tezuka put his arm around Fuji's shoulder, "The forest is warmed by the hot springs so the fireflies can live safely in the winter."

"It's so pretty. It's the first time for me seeing something as beautiful as this." Fuji sighed happily. Tezuka kissed Fuji's head and agreed.

If only the time can stop right now.


That's all for this chapter. I think this story has three chapters to go or so. As Youki minako-san said, yes, I read your reviews, darling. I am indeed want to add the suspense in this story since Tezuka's problem (can I say that he had problem there?) had ended smoothly. Did you enjoy this chapter by chance? Let me know, because I love, LOVE to read your reviews. Thank you very much! And you know what?! My fave author left me a review. I'm so happy and touch, thanks tezufujilove-san.

Finally, thanks for my lovely reviewers, supremekikay24-san, Fujiyuki-san, bebekanon-san, tightpans-san, Snowy princess white-san Youki minako-san,mariahmaya-san, wilberwin-san, yayoi-san, and all my readers. Did I miss someone here? I'm sorry, I hope no, let me know if I did. Your good reviews give me power to write better.

I love you.
