Drink Under The Wine

Rose 1

The high school hallways bless with shining Thursday greatness and emerald trees that face the windows directly. Footsteps echo through the hardwood flooring of one particular hallway. One, seemingly to be a female and the other, a male. They stopped right at a door nearby. The room had a square, white sign on the top left side that read “3-B”. It meant that it was the third class on the second floor, a junior level of school. Once entered, the students within the class paid massive attention to the front of the room. Making the new boy sort of nervous.

Their teacher, Yuri Hattori, put her hand out to the new student, Keisuke Hiraki. “I’d like you all to meet my ‘son’, he will join us in our class for the remainder of the year. Hope you all can get along with Mr. Keisuke Hiraki.” From plain view, most of the girls of the class were blushing at the silver haired, innocent boy. That, too, made his face blush back. But only in embarrassment. “Nice to meet you all.” Was all Keisuke managed to say before told to sit next to this one boy near the window. The boy’s name was classified as Minoru Aburakoji.

Once seated, the teacher, Mrs. Hattori, told the students to get out their books from yesterday and begin reading with a partner. After that, concur the story with each other and give a oral summary of the chapter. Minoru tapped Keisuke on the shoulder, directing Keisuke’s attention from outside the window over to Minoru.

“What is it?” Keisuke said while turning back only slightly.
“Want to be partners?” Minoru said blankly, leaving Keisuke no choice but to sit back down in his seat.
“Sure, why not.”

Soon after their first period, Keisuke had trouble directing himself to his second period. While walking through the school, he bumped into a strange figure. One man who was actually rather tall, and to Keisuke’s surprise, rather handsome. “Um, sorry, sir.” Keisuke walked right by the man, but the man seemed to just stand there. Creepy as it was, Keisuke ignored it all while running off around the corner to his second period.

School passed by like a breeze, and it wasn’t that half bad compared to other first days. He made one new friend, Minoru, and the both of them actually did talk a lot to each other during some classes. Of course, he had multiple confusion eras to where he couldn’t find where his guardian, Yuri Hattori, was to be. Walking through the halls after school with Yuri, Keisuke somehow saw blonde hair waving rather obviously to anyone’s perspective. Even when not looking through the window. Keisuke peered out to the window while talking with Yuri and saw the same man he bumped into.

‘What is up with that man? Is he stalking me or something?’ Keisuke thought for some time. But Yuri was wandering off from him, so he had no time to pay attention to the young man out from the window. “Hurry it up, Keisuke! We have to go home.” Yuri said from a distance across the hallway. Right next to the entrance/exit of the school. Directing back to Yuri, Keisuke ran to Yuri. “Oh, I’m coming, Yuri-sama!”

Right at the exit of the school, the man from earlier was leaning against one of the pillars attached to the wall. Keisuke narrowed his piercing green eyes over to the man and for a second, he was interested in meeting this guy. Yuri was also looking at the man, but her entire attention was directed to the blonde beauty. “Sir, what are you doing out here?” Finally, the long haired young man looked over to the two that were just standing their with overwhelming curiosity.

“Oh, I’m just waiting for somebody.”
“But aren’t you a college student or something? A little brother?” Keisuke started to get into the conversation. The man was attracted to the silver haired boy already. You could tell with the blondie falling under a second of silence.
“Nope. More of an acquaintance that a friend told me to meet.”
“Is that so? Who is it?”
“Mind telling me your name? You could be him.”

Keisuke’s heart couldn’t stand to find the courage to speak. He couldn’t think of anything to say in return. If he did, then it would be a stutter. “K-Keisuke. Keisuke Hiraki.” All the man could do was smile.
“What an adorable name. I guess I should tell you mine.”
“No s**t, Sherlock.” Keisuke said with the both of them, the man and Keisuke, chuckling at each other.
“The name’s Satoshi. Satoshi Funabashi. Hope to see you again another time, Keisuke.”
“You too, Sato-sama!”

Yuri and Keisuke waved off and entered a black Lexus nearby. Driving off, Satoshi was peering at the car as it disappeared off over the next turn. His smile was piercing and quite handsome. “Keisuke, I’ve been searching for you. The one person I’d soon fall in love with.” Once the two arrived home, Keisuke hurried to his room.
“I’ll get my homework finished real soon, Yuri-sama.”
“You better!” Yuri said with a giggle. Keisuke following with a responding chuckle.

The bedroom door shut behind Keisuke and he noticed that their was a letter for him right on his desk. Yuri already sorted out the mail for the both of them. Keisuke went right to the letter and opened it. Just a letter, but it was strange. The letter was from Satoshi Funabashi. The same man they just met earlier. Reading through the letter, Keisuke drew the instant conclusion that he, was the person Satoshi was looking for. Why though? The letter said:

Dear Mr. Keisuke Hiraki,

My name is Satoshi Funabashi. A friend of your mother’s.
Before she died in the hospital, she asked me something. If I would happily accompany you with Ms. Yuri Hattori as a secondary guardian.
In fact, I may be legalized along with Ms. Yuri. Expect to see me in due time.
If you want more information or just want to call me, here’s my cell number: 1 616 904 2251.

See you soon,
Satoshi Funabashi

Keisuke couldn’t help but be surprised at the moment. But at the same time, he was instantly happy. He could already sense that maybe he would fall in love with this man. Even if it wasn’t proven that he was a homosexual, Keisuke still had his thoughts and doubts. Hugging the letter within his warm grasp, Keisuke blushed for a apparent, but unknown reason. “Hope to see you soon, too, Sato-sama …” Keisuke drifted off into a day dream, soon to just plow onto his bed. Falling asleep rather quickly.

After a short nap, Keisuke woke up with the letter still in hands. For some reason, Keisuke was having a strange dream of seeing his mother die once again. “Why must I still dream about those things? I hate to be reminded …” A yell was heard from a distance, but it was a soft one from Yuri. “Keisuke! Dinner’s ready!” Keisuke walked out his room and down the stairs to the kitchen. The same blonde beauty was surprisingly at the table, facing Keisuke. His hazel eyes piercing right through Keisuke’s heart.

It was impressive how Satoshi could render him speechless after only one day of meeting him. “Oh, Keisuke, Satoshi came over today with some good news. He will be staying with us as your second guardian.” Satoshi waved over to Keisuke with a bright smile on his face.
“Nice to see you again, Keisuke.”
“N-Nice to see you, too, Sato-sama.”
“Sato-sama? So you are going to refer me as your master after only one day of meeting me.”
“Why not? You know my mother and you are older than me.”

Satoshi chuckled at his remark, it was almost like once one sentence was spoken, it went on forever. One thing that Keisuke already began to admire about Satoshi. How could one man make someone fall under a spell called “love” so easily? Keisuke sat down at the table, a seat right across from Satoshi. Yuri soon joined as she spread out the food all around the table. One of Keisuke’s favorite dishes, seasoned salmon with rice and a side of seafood egg rolls.

“Eat up, you two. Both of you look quite hungry.” Yuri said. The boys soon following her direction. Spreading some of the salmon and rice over their plates. And then using tongs to gather themselves at least one egg rolls, but Keisuke snuck a second one for he utterly loved the way Yuri cooked seafood egg rolls. With Satoshi taking a bite of the salmon and rice together, he was already dazzled by the taste of the elegant food. Here came Satoshi’s childish side.

“Amazing, Yuri. You are quite the great cook.” Satoshi said with his face blushing of satisfaction.
“No kidding. I’m so glad that she is my guardian. She is smart, talented, and not to mention she can help out with anything. She is a great person to me and I treat her back the same way she does to me.” This comment left Yuri to blush with one of her hands brushing against one of her cheeks. “W-Why thank you, Keisuke.” Satoshi couldn’t help but smile at the both of them. Such a sight to see a family like this bond like that.

Dinner was finished within due time and little leftovers were put into the fridge on a plate. Both Satoshi, Yuri, and Keisuke were full enough to be happy. “Such elegant food, Yuri. I thank you for cooking.” Satoshi said, Keisuke soon following. “Yeah, Yuri-sama. Thanks for such great food.” Yuri blushed once again and couldn’t help but hug Keisuke. “Thank you so much, the both of you!” The three gathered up in the living room to plan where Satoshi would be sleeping.

“I have an idea, why not he sleep in my futon that we had from the old apartment?” Keisuke suggested.
“Fantastic idea, Keisuke. So, Satoshi, do you mind sleeping in Keisuke’s room?” Yuri said with a smile that was inspiring. Inspiring enough to make Satoshi smile back at Yuri.
“I don’t mind at all, Yuri-chan.”
Keisuke stepped out of the living room over to his room. Satoshi right by his side. Shutting the door behind them, Keisuke walked into his closet. Out came a blue futon, spread out to the ground. “Hope you don’t mind it. It is a little comfortable, so you’ll be able to sleep peacefully.” Keisuke smiled as he turned around to view a picture of him, Yuri, and his mother. Both hugging each other and smiling. Smiling back at the photo, Keisuke turned back to Satoshi.

Surprisingly, Satoshi was right in front of him. This left Keisuke to be shocked of how fast he got there. “Um, Satoshi, what’s wrong?” A crimson blush crossed right on each of Keisuke’s cheeks with Satoshi looking down at him with a piercing look. “Your mother not only told me to be your guardian, but to be your lover as well.” With a shocked expression on his face, Keisuke couldn’t help but stare up at Satoshi. The warm, delicate hands of Satoshi touching Keisuke’s shoulders with their lips, approaching at such a passionate rate.

”S-Satoshi … please, don’t.”
“Just let me do this, just once.” Satoshi said in return.
Within seconds, their lips were brushed together in quite a manner that seductive and passionate. Keisuke couldn’t help but close his eyes. Falling into the kiss, he put his arms around Satoshi’s neck. Satoshi’s lips were so soft, it only made Keisuke fall into it more. Satoshi broke the kiss, leaving Keisuke nearly speechless of how professional that kiss was. “W-wow …” Keisuke managed to say that while falling into a sleep.

“Such a delicate kid. I didn’t expect him to do this. Then again, he looks so adorable when he is asleep.” Satoshi lifted Keisuke over to his bed, laying Keisuke onto the bed slowly, not to awaken Keisuke. Giving off a kiss on Keisuke’s cheek, Satoshi could see that the innocent boy in front was smiling because of the sensation of the kiss. The kiss that made Keisuke’s heart fall under a warm bliss. “Good night, Keisuke …”

Before you knew it, Saturday approached rather quickly. Almost too quickly. Guess that’s what happens when you fall in love. Keisuke still hasn’t recovered from the kiss two days ago. And for some reason, he doesn’t like to think that he was actually kissed by Satoshi. Maybe it was all a dream, so Keisuke keeps thinking to himself. Saturday was spent with Yuri, Keisuke, and Satoshi going out for shopping, then all three of them relaxed at the park. Saturdays seemed to be so normal, passing by like crazy.

Unfortunately, Satoshi was called to his college later in the afternoon. It was during a session of video games, just all of them trying to beat each other at Guilty Gear XX. Like every other Saturday. “Sorry, you guys, have to go to work.” The both of them were depressed now that Satoshi had to go. But then again, Keisuke never knew that he had a job or even went to college. Before the blondie could walk out the door, Keisuke distracted him right at the door. With one question that pestered Keisuke for quite some time.

“What do you even do for a job?” Blankly obvious question, but since Satoshi never got to express his life with the two, it was only necessary to tell them. Turning back around to face Keisuke, Satoshi prepared himself to speak just what he did. “I am an artist trying to become a professional. I must go to college and do my job as an art teacher. Don’t worry, Keisuke. I’ll be back in due time.” The door shut with Satoshi not even saying goodbye. One thing that always depressed Keisuke. That’s what his Dad always did to him as a child. Left past the door on a business trip; not even telling anybody goodbye.

As Keisuke stared at the hardwood flooring in blank depression, Yuri came up to him and put a hand on his shoulder. “Don’t be so sad, Kei-kun. He will be back.” Keisuke looked up to Yuri with a smile that seemed to be fake. But then again, he knew he had to cheer up. Depression always made Keisuke be down in the dirt. It wasn’t anything he needed with his past already. Walking with Yuri back into the living room, the both of them sat down onto a couch nearby.

“What was with that look earlier? Miss him already?” Yuri became concerned for Keisuke all the time. She was always there to see Keisuke smile, cry, and laugh. To see him so sad like that again, she certainly couldn’t stand to see that face. “That and … it reminded me of my father. Always running out on my mother and I without notice and a ‘goodbye’. I hate to remember that.” Yuri sighed as she hugged Keisuke further into her warm grasp.
“Don’t worry. I’m sure they will both be back.”
“I hope so, too.” Keisuke drifted off into his sadness once again, but then began to smile. He couldn’t be sad all the time. He had to at least be happy.

Satoshi was at the college room where the four students were at, and they all were just his age. But, Satoshi was obviously their mentor instead of teacher. Or so that is what all the people in the class started to say. “Hey, Satoshi, you are late.” A persistent voice went off in the background. From the sound of it, the male was obviously pissed at Satoshi. But the question is, who could? “Kyo, will you get off my ass? I tried my best to get here.” He said those words calmly to his student and ex-boyfriend, Kyo Shimizudani.

“What were you doing? Flirting with another guy?”
“Oh, shut up, Kyo. We have work to do.” Satoshi walked by the Kyo who was having his arms crossed and a cigarette lit. But that cigarette was put out since Kyo knew that Satoshi hated the smell of cigarette smoke. “Alright, today we are going to take an example of a vase of flowers. It may be repetitive, but why not just do this for fun. Remember to give as much detail as you can.” The students began to get to their work, and out of the silence, a cell phone went off with a ring. So the caller ID said, Keisuke was calling. “Keisuke, you have terrible timing.” Satoshi spoke under his breath so Kyo wouldn’t get agitated.

Walking out of the room, Satoshi flipped open his phone. “Keisuke, what is it?” A stutter was heard in the distance. “U-Um … I just wanted to check up on you. I really hope you do well with your art. Please don’t be depressed or agitated.” Sighing, Satoshi couldn’t stop but smile. Keisuke surely did care for him, which made even his heart warm up with a sensation of love.
“Thanks, Keisuke. I’ll be sure to come home happy, I promise.”
“That’s great to hear, Satoshi. Please be safe out there. See you when you get home.”
“See you then. Bye, Keisuke.” And both their cell phones hung up, placing the phones right in their pockets.

Satoshi walked right back into the room and with a surprise, all of the students got their works of art done. And amazingly, they all were beautiful. Highly detailed and with a great sense of color. “Wow, you guys. You really have improved.” But Kyo placed down his painting and placed on hand on one of his hips. “WE heard that conversation over the door and well, we thought that so that you would be happy when you went home. Thought that it would be generous we’d try our best the fastest we could to finish our art.” Satoshi was surprised, and both happy for their efforts. He didn’t know they were try so hard just for him.

“Thanks all of you. Now let’s finish class! I’m sure you all want to go home!” The front door opened with Satoshi easily slipping through the door, shutting and locking the door behind him. When he turned around and headed into the living room, he saw that Keisuke was asleep on the breakfast bar nearby. Apparently, he stayed up just to see Satoshi smile when he came home. “Keisuke, sometimes, you just got to love yourself.”

Satoshi carried Keisuke to bed once more time, just like what it was on Thursday. The memories obviously came back like they always did when Satoshi would see Keisuke. “Keisuke, I promise to be as great as Yuri was to you. With all my heart.” Laying Keisuke softly on the bed, Satoshi gave Keisuke one last kiss on the cheek. Then, wrapping Keisuke lovingly in his covers. “Good night, Keisuke. Hope to see your innocent and lovely smile in the morning.”

Morning of Monday, Keisuke wakes up to Yuri coming on to a cold. Meaning that during homeroom and third period, he’ll have to have a substitute. And substitutes were one thing that Keisuke could never get along with. Satoshi promised that he’d take care of Yuri while Keisuke was at school. No one was going to leave Yuri home alone. The door to the outside shut nearly seconds later and Keisuke hurried on to school to come back home to take care of Yuri with Satoshi. Bu, Keisuke wouldn’t expect what was to happen next.

“Hello, students. My name is Mr. Nomiya Sanjo. I will be your substitute teacher for Ms. Hattori.” So this Nomiya said. Keisuke could already tell that this man was no good. Mr. Sanjo was ten years older than Yuri, and you could tell with that gaze in his eyes that there was certainly trouble. Keisuke shrugged off the chill that crept up his spine and just concentrated mostly on the board. Minoru was paying his attention, to Keisuke, however. He could tell that Keisuke was troubled by this substitute. Poking Keisuke in the shoulder, Minoru started to whisper behind Mr. Sanjo’s back.

“You alright, Keisuke? You look bothered.” Minoru said with a worried look on his face.
All Keisuke could do was nod to Minoru, whispering back. “I’m alright, just … this teacher gives me the chills. Somehow, he just doesn’t seem safe.”
“Well, I’d be afraid too. He’s Daisuke Sanjo’s father. You see the kid in the orange hair?” Minoru pointed with his thumb over to a kid with bright orange hair. The boy looked depressed and like his life didn’t matter to him.
“Yeah, I see him. What about it?” Keisuke said as his eyes went back to Minoru’s. Right after that question, the class started to get loud because of the assignment they were soon to do. Just study hall for the rest of homeroom.
“Daisuke Sanjo is the top tennis player at our school and he’s quite infamous. Girls love him, but he really doesn’t get into relationships much. As for his father, Nomiya, he is a very scary guy. A large real estate manager and a politician all in one. Nomiya likes to set the law and hates stubbornness.” Keisuke sweat dropped at everything Minoru was saying about Nomiya. “Sounds like Nomiya isn’t the kind of person you’d get along with. Only if you are in his profession.”
“Exactly.” Was all Minoru said. All because Mr. Sanjo snapped them back with a rather harsh yell.

It was after third period, and Keisuke was starting to worry about Satoshi and Yuri. “I wonder what they are doing right now.” Back at the house, Satoshi was sitting in a chair with his arms crossed. His attention was based clearly on Yuri, the sleeping beauty before him. Yuri switched off to her side to where Satoshi could see her full face from his perspective. With the look on the caretaker’s face, he was thinking of what maybe this girl might be dreaming of. “Ms. Hattori …” That little meek from Satoshi’s lips awakened Yuri from quite the nightmare.

Yuri began to look around as she was scared senseless from her dream. But she had a good ability of hiding it for she slowly looked around the room. Then, she looked over to Satoshi and all Satoshi did was smile back at her with encouragement. “Looks like you had a nightmare.” Yuri looked down at her sheets, gripping one side with frightened force. “Yeah, and I don’t want to think about it.” Yuri’s purple hair covered her eyes for she didn’t want to realize what her nightmare was.

“Could it be of the past?” That rung in Yuri’s ears and she acknowledged, that she couldn’t get out of this. “Yes. Back when my sister and Keisuke’s mother died. You might not know, but before Keisuke’s mother was in the hospital of heart disease, the two were in a car accident.”
Satoshi had his eyes wide open. While he was in the hospital with Keisuke’s mother, Chiaki, he never remembered being told that Chiaki was in a car accident. “Why didn’t she tell us?”
“My sister told her relatives, but Chiaki always kept it under her wing and in her head. She worried that maybe the family were pester her so much to get better.”
“But that is a good thing to get better.”
“But she didn’t want to be pestered so much. Headaches for Chiaki are terrible and her Post Traumatic Stress Disorder starts to kick in.”

Satoshi leaned back in his chair, his arms still crossed to relax himself. He couldn’t believe that Chiaki wouldn’t tell him a simple thing as that she was in a car accident. “Ah, I see.” Yuri laid back down on the bed while looking up to the reflective orange ceiling. Both of them fell silent, even though they wanted to say something to each other. But Satoshi had enough information for the time being, he just needed someone to talk to. “Hey Satoshi, what else did Chiaki tell you in that room?”

Chuckling, the red faced blonde beauty was leaning back to see the ceiling with Yuri. “She told me to be Keisuke’s lover. If not me, than my sister would be his lover.” Yuri giggled at the way Satoshi explained about that little factor. Satoshi was still blushing and all he did was retaliate in a funny manner. “Hey, what’s wrong with my sexual choice?”
“Nothing, just you and Keisuke together is kind of cute. Keisuke is innocent and you are elegant. It’s almost like a manga.”
“Excellent reference, Yuri.” Satoshi’s face returned to his normal color as he stared back over to the window. Where he could see quite the view even through that kind of small window.

“Did she choose you because you had the same curse as Keisuke?” Satoshi couldn’t believe his ears. How did Yuri know about this already? “So you know about it?” Satoshi knew where this conversation would lead to. Maybe he would have to tell Keisuke, or just keep it secret until he discovers. “Yeah, we were high school friends, Satoshi. How would I forget?” Smiling, Satoshi and Yuri faced each other with past coming back rather quickly. “Still intelligent as ever, Yuri.”

Back at school, Keisuke was heading out of school before one person interrupted that. Bumping right into Keisuke, but it was more of Keisuke bumping into the figure. “Hey, watch it --” He was caught off guard when it was Nomiya right in front of him. “Shouldn’t you be at home already?” His voice was sort of piercing, but could give you the chills. “I had to take care of some things, I am leaving right now.” Keisuke curved right around Mr. Sanjo, but he stalled once again. Nomiya grabbed right Keisuke’s arm. “Not until you fight me.”

Keisuke turned around while shoving his arm back to himself. “What the hell are you talking about? I’m not going to fight you!”
“But you must!”
“I don’t have to do anything!” Keisuke ran off, but slammed into was seemed to be a barrier. A bright blue barrier that sealed himself from getting away from Nomiya. “Fight me already, you brat!” Keisuke was helpless as he put his back to the barrier’s wall. “Not a chance, old man!” Nomiya cracked his neck two times with creepy sounds making Keisuke do the usual creeping up his spine. “Then I have no other choice. I’ll make you fight me.”



Rose 5

“W-What are you talking about?” Keisuke had no room to talk. Nomiya looked like he was powering up for something with the wind blowing upwards from Nomiya’s body. As a result, a large power bullet launched right at Keisuke. It was so enormous and powerful, Keisuke couldn’t resist but block what could destroy him. Closing his eyes shut, Keisuke waited for something to save him. ‘Please … Satoshi.’ With that thought, Keisuke somehow felt this rush up his spine. The rush to kill.

The courage of the one he certainly loved, crept up his spine and told him that he must fight back. Like his gut told him, Keisuke uncovered his face and got into a fighting position. What was strange was that Keisuke’s eyes turned blood red. You could tell this wasn’t that good of news. The ground rumbled with power as the bullet approached Keisuke faster and faster and Keisuke charging for what could be an attack. The bullet finally arrived in front of Keisuke. Time quickly passing them both.

But the tension soon was relieved. Keisuke launched his fist right to the middle of the large energy bullet. Nomiya came surprised of the reckless comeback. Within a few seconds, the bullet was sucker punched into the ground. Creating quite the large crater. “Wow …” Nomiya was speechless, but also impressed. “Didn’t figure you would awaken this fast, Keisuke.” The fighting position was ready and prepared and Keisuke just stood there with a furious look on his face. “Looks like I’ll just have to rip that power out of you.”

“Shut up and die!” This yell caught Nomiya off guard. Right in front of him was Keisuke, and Keisuke’s fist being locked back for a massive punch. And it sure did deliver. Keisuke connected his fist with Nomiya’s stomach with great force. So great that even Nomiya coughed blood and you could see dust collected up from Nomiya’s back. Groaning in pain, Nomiya was looking to this furious Keisuke with both shock, fright, and anger. “H-how … could you already be this … strong?” Easily, Nomiya slipped right off Keisuke’s fist and Keisuke didn’t realize it but … Nomiya was instantly dead. His eyes being rolled up and blood laying on the floor from Nomiya’s mouth.

The initiation of Keisuke’s dark side was soon ended after this kill. Keisuke could witness everything from his own mind. He tried to resist, but failed. Dropping to his knees, Keisuke clenched his head in fright. “What have I done?” Whispering, he just couldn’t believe himself. He couldn’t do anything while this unknown side took over his actions. He killed someone, no matter if it wasn’t really him. Standing up with hesitation, Keisuke walked off the school still with the memories of his kill within his mind. What would the school do when they find the body?

Once the exit approached behind Keisuke, he knew someone was there. “Looked like you had one hell of a time.” Satoshi’s voice echoed right in Keisuke’s ear drums. Shot back and surprised, the silver innocence was looking at the ground in sadness. He didn’t want to think about it. Just the fact of how he killed like that was shocking enough. Keisuke had to ask some questions, about who he really was. “Satoshi, what am I?” That question was quickly answered, this meant Satoshi just wanted to get the facts straight. “That is what we like to call the “Kitakyushu”. A demon that lives inside your body with immense power and strength. If you don’t know how to control it, it could go berserk. The more berserk, the more gruesome the kill.”
“Are you saying that I couldn’t control it, so the Kitakyushu went berserk …”
“And killed Mr. Nomiya with one devastating blow. That’s what happens. It is natural in a beginner of a Kitakyushu user.”

But Keisuke was still worrying, he actually killed someone with his bare hands. Realizing too much and having thoughts cram his head, Keisuke passed out into Satoshi’s arms. Without one warning. Satoshi, himself, was surprised of how delicate just one boy like this is. Guess it would be because it is the first time in a long time he’s seen blood face-to-face. “Hope you are alright, Keisuke. Can’t let you pass out on me after a fight.”

Satoshi put Keisuke on the passenger side of the car. Satoshi’s car being a Mustang F-10, quite the old car now-a-days. The doors shut, the silence being committed within the crimson car. Leaning back, Satoshi sighed while looking at Keisuke easily lay himself to sleep. “Let’s get home.” Satoshi inserted the main key within the slot right next to the steering wheel. Twisting the key forward, the car instantly started and the radio played peaceful music that was actually rather loud. Satoshi couldn’t tell which. MUCC was always a mix band.

The two arrived home, and Keisuke woke up right on his bed. But looking around, no one was there. “Satoshi and Yuri must be out in the living room.” Keisuke said, moving himself off the bed, mannerly wobbling for only a second. Keisuke walked right out of the room in a hurry to see Satoshi and Yuri once again. He slid on the tile floor, smiling to reassure the both of them. Yuri and Satoshi looked back at Keisuke, away from the television.

Unexpectingly, Yuri tackled Keisuke with a loving grasp. Not tight, not too soft. It was just one of those passionate hugs that meant she really missed him. “Are you alright, Keisuke?” Chuckling in Yuri’s grasp, Keisuke wrapped his arms around Yuri’s waist.
“Yeah, don’t worry too much.”
“You know I always will.” Yuri said, backing up with her hands on Keisuke’s shoulders. Keisuke could only smile back at how motherly Yuri really was to him. Satoshi was leaning against a wall with his arms crossed and his smile being bright. Keisuke looked back at him with a curious smile. Was this seduction or just plain curiosity. “Thanks, Satoshi. You really helped me back there. You know, helping me home and all.” Satoshi waved his hand in acceptance. “Don’t sweat it. As long as you are safe, that’s all that matters.”

The two quickly went to their room. Within no time, Satoshi and Keisuke were passionately kissing. What was unexpected in a day like this. Breaking the kiss only a few inches away from Satoshi, Keisuke was opening his eyes halfway. This is all he wanted all day for some reason. “Satoshi … take me.” Keisuke let himself go into Satoshi’s loving kiss once again. “I will, Keisuke. Anything for you.” Both of them planted each other on the bed. Still making out with such love being transferred through their lips. The night passed with one night that was soon to be one of Keisuke’s most memorable.

The next morning was just like any other, but different since Satoshi was laying in Keisuke’s bed. Sitting up, Keisuke smiled down to his love for last night. The weird thing was, they were both naked in the bed. Covered by the white and blue blanket that kept their private parts hidden. Keisuke leaned over with a smile and puckered his lips. Kissing Satoshi’s cheek loving. “I … love you, Satoshi.” Fortunately, this whole ‘cat ears are for virgins’ thing that Keisuke read in a manga wasn’t real in his case. Indeed, last night was one night that Keisuke loved with a passion. He finally felt Satoshi penetrate him softly. “Thanks once again … Satoshi.”
