Chapter Twenty Eight ~Mukahi~

Warnings: Yaoi, Love, Angst, Fluff, and Lots of Sex. Some kink. You've been warned ;)

Disclaimer: Nope not mine. Still in my dreams. ;)


Gakuto turned a little to see in the lava lamp glow Yuushi was looking at him with that goofy look on his face he gets when he can't explain to Gakuto exactly where the X should go in an equation in any way Gakuto can understand. Stupid Yuushi now said slowly as if now Gakuto was a few lanes short of a highway. "You remember when Atobe came to see you earlier tonight? I was with you. The bathtub."

"Of course Yuushi!" Gakuto hated when Yuushi treated him like he was stupid. He wondered for a second if Yuushi had to slow himself down for everyone else and if that was annoying to him. It had to be. Maybe that was why no one got the jokes. Gakuto had to stop himself from shaking his head to clear it. Who cared if it was annoying for him? Stupid Yuushi was treating him like he wouldn't remember something that happened a couple hours earlier.

"So you heard what Atobe said? All of it?" Oh. Well. No. But it was Atobe and most of the time he usually said things about himself. Gakuto didn't know what to say and refused to admit he didn't know so he shrugged. "You agreed to it and you weren't even listening?" Yuushi looked at Gakuto as if he was insane.

Gakuto put his chin up. He had no idea why stupid Yuushi was being such a jerk. "I was hurt Yuushi!" He snarled at him and turned away from him. Let Yuushi leave. He would anyway. And then Sato would come back and hurt him. Gakuto felt bad that his Mom would get a call that her poor son was dead and hurt in so many horrible ways--again. Sato might even kill him. The only shred of consolation was stupid Yuushi took the oath to protect him. Gakuto hoped that when Sato killed him that first Yuushi felt terrible. Really, really bad for not kissing him more or doing anything else. He hoped he felt so bad about that and about saying those stupid love things and letting Gakuto get hurt anyway that Yuushi couldn't wait for his punishment. Gakuto hoped they did everything to stupid Yuushi too. The whole cutting out the tongue, boiled in oil, hands cut off thing before they killed him terribly like it said they would do in the oath if you didn't do what you swore. He deserved it! Stupid, cruel Yuushi deserved...!

Yuushi picked him up again and moved him so he lay with his back to Yuushi's chest. Yuushi's arms were wrapped around him and he noticed the smell of Yuushi's cologne. He never really liked it before. It was kind of spicy in a way and sweet. "I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking." That was the first time Gakuto ever heard Yuushi say that!

Yuushi sat there and messed with Gakuto's hair. Gakuto hated it when people touched his hair. He had a scar on his forehead and another on his scalp he always tried to hide so he wouldn't have to explain them. You can only say you got hurt doing gymnastics so many times. He used to tell him to stop and Yuushi would ignore him and play with his hair anyway. Even if he punched him.Yuushi always did this but Gakuto didn't really notice it was in this way before. Yuushi would take his slender finger and softly run it down Gakuto's center part from back to front separating the hairs to either side.Gakuto always had thought it was some weird strange Yuushi thing or his hair was messy. Yuushi said, "I'll say it all again. I told Atobe I can't really protect you if you're living somewhere else. Atobe agreed and he said he was going to be making some changes anyway because we need more preparation for next year. There's some freshman powerhouse he wants to try out to replace Sato. Several people tomorrow are going to be moved around and you and I will be roommates. We have to pretend like we didn't know though. I told him not to put you by Taki and you know he won't put you anywhere near Sato. Did you hear any of this earlier?" Gakuto shook his head no.

Yuushi did that to his hair again and then said quietly. "You probably didn't hear what I told you too. I hope you aren't angry at me for what I've done. I thought perhaps that you weren't but now that I realize you probably didn't hear me before when I told you, I'm again concerned. Would you like some water?"

Yuushi actually went to get up and away and Gakuto knew he was probably putting space between them in case Gakuto was THAT mad at him that he hit him. Gakuto again quickly grabbed him. "Tell me now Yuushi, what did you do?" Gakuto turned to him, "You! You told Taki!" This was all stupid Yuushi's stupid fault?

Yuushi put his hands up defensively, "No. I did not. I assure you. Please listen before you hit me again." He peeked out to see that Gakuto was waiting. "I've known about you and Sato for a long time. Since the beginning. I've had feelings for you for a long time. I thought Sato would end up with Taki or that in some way the situation would earlier resolve itself and you would be available. As you know, I dated other people to try to see if it was only a phase I was going through. But then...I saw what he did to you. In the club house. Right after summer practices started. I walked in on you both. He...with his racket..." Yuushi looked upset. And then angry. His lips were pressed together into a thin white line.

Gakuto knew immediately when that time was. He remembered them all but that had been particularly bad. "Yeah...didn't know you were there..." He didn't need to be reminded and inwardly cringed at someone else seeing. Even if it was only stupid Yuushi who saw. It had been bad. Really bad. He could remember each moment but even worse was him being left alone after to somehow clean himself up, get home, and then function the next day. It had been one of the worst and Gakuto didn't know how to get away. Sato the next day said sorry as always but the apologies never really mattered because they never meant anything. He would never stop even if he promised he would because he promised things all the time and never did mean any of them.

Yuushi said quietly, "I knew not to talk to you. You were too upset but I followed you home and made sure you got home safe. I always do. What you don't know is he came home that night and did almost the same thing to Taki."

"But worse to me." Gakuto said knowing already. "Always worse to me. I know. He likes to tell me."

Yuushi looked again like he did on the tennis courts when he was about to destroy someone. Gakuto was not afraid because the look was turned towards someone else. "I hurt him." Yuushi said. Gakuto looked at him confused and then surprised at this information freely given to him. "His knee never healed completely from when he injured it skiing last spring. I just...helped it. You know..."Gakuto did know. At Hyoutei and in the professional tennis world accidents couldn't always happen to get you a coveted spot you wanted or to remove a rival when you needed them gone. Sometimes they had to be arranged.

"Shoes?" Gakuto asked a little in awe. Sato could be so stupid. He probably thought he was safe from Taki and Gakuto but never even thought of Yuushi. He never saw it coming and probably still had no idea. If you messed with the shoes someone wore, just slightly making one shorter, unevenly worn in just the right way, and heavier than the other, you could seriously mess a person up. Slowly. Over time. Like slow poison. Especially if you know they are already prone to a certain kind of injury if their foot lands over and over again in a certain wrong way. There was a reason you never ever gave out your locker codes and changed your shoes constantly. You guarded your equipment and things at Hyoutei well because your rivals were always waiting for the chance you gave them when you were lax.

"Everything." Oshitari said. As Sato's roommate he had access to it all. An angry tensai with free reign to tamper with all Sato's things. Gakuto realized Oshitari must have been very careful. So careful that was why it took so long. Yuushi wanted the bastard permanently removed. Gakuto remembered the first week of practice Sato saying his knee bothered him. It had gotten progressively worse. It had been the one hope Gakuto had that Sato would be dropped. Yuushi finished, "Atobe knows he's hurt. Tomorrow will be Sato's last day. I couldn't watch him hurt you anymore. Even if you're angry at me, tomorrow and as long as you need me to, I'll keep you safe. I swear it. No one will hurt you again. I can do that for you regardless of your feelings for me." Yuushi stood and went to get something to drink from Jiroh's bar.

Gakuto sat on the bed and just thought about it all. He thought about Yuushi and how his arms were around him while he slept earlier. How Yuushi kept saying everything was all right. How he saved him. What he had done. It was overwhelming to Gakuto. Yuushi went to walk past the bed back to the wave bed alone when Gakuto said, "No. Stay here Yuushi." He wasn't mad. But he would check his shoes and equipment from now on a little closer especially if Yuushi was living with him.

"You're certain?" Yuushi asked and looked relived when Gakuto nodded. He watched as Yuushi moved back to the bed, straightened it out, and then lay down. Gakuto never thought about before now how in a big social situation Yuushi looked awkward but then when he was like this, even in Jiroh's ridiculous dark blue silk too small for him pajamas, he looked at ease with himself. He moved now how he did on the courts. In kind of a sexy secure unselfconscious way. It was only in a group of people that Yuushi made the stupid jokes and puns and moved in that jerky awkward all limbs stand out manner.

Gakuto wondered about him. Oshitari had taken a huge risk confessing his plan of calculated attack on Sato to Gakuto. One of the odd things about Hyoutei was you could almost do whatever you wanted, but it was provided you never get caught. You get caught or turned in by a rival and you were worse than gone. You were made a huge example of for being stupid enough to get caught. Yuushi didn't have to tell Gakuto what he did. Sato still would have been injured,Yuushi was already protecting Gakuto, and would be living with him. Yuushi was so strange. Gakuto had more questions than answers and for the guy that knew everything about everyone, it was annoying and interesting all at the same time.

He decided too that he wanted a few more of those long slow kisses while he tried to get some of these answers. And while he was at it, Gakuto wanted to see that predatory single-minded hot sexy look to be back in Yuushi's eyes. He realized it was almost like Yuushi was two people. The goofy stupid one you saw most of the time and that hot sexy other one you rarely saw. Gakuto moved up so his naked skin slid along the silk Yuushi wore and he rested his head on Yuushi's strong chest. He waited for Yuushi to move to look down at him or at his body wrapped around him when he noticed Yuushi was looking straight up. At the mirrors. Gakuto smiled and decided to give him a little show. He slid his underwear slowly off and lay naked on top of Yuushi. "Yuushi?" He waited until his eyes went from looking past him in the mirror to looking into his. Then he put his lips on Yuushi's. Gakuto didn't kiss guys often. He had a thing for big guys and usually during sex the guy was behind him and he was too short to reach. But he liked to kiss just usually with girls. Guys tended to kiss hard and wet but girls kissed light and teasing. Guys were fast and easy to get off but with girls it took a little bit of work and time. Sometimes he liked that though. It was a nice change of pace. Yuushi seemed to only be half heartedly kissing him back and with just his lips. Gakuto nibbled and licked at Yuushi's lips and tasted what he drank, "Cranberry?"

Yuushi smiled a little, "Pomegranate." Gakuto licked into Yuushi's mouth when he opened his mouth to talk and slid their tongues together. Yuushi stopped after a moment and pulled back slightly. "And my earlier point of my being uncomfortable doing this with you knowing my feelings and being your roommate?"

"Get over it Yuushi.Shut up and kiss me like you did before." Gakuto kept pressing their mouths together and touching their tongues but Yuushi was not kissing him back. Gakuto was hard and liked the feel of the silk pajamas against his erection.

"Oh? You enjoyed that? Perhaps if you ask me nicely?"

Gakuto snorted in laughter. He slid down, shoved his hand down Yuushi's pants, and grabbed his erection. He was bigger than Sato. Yuushi gasped slightly at suddenly being grabbed and Gakuto grinned, "Nice enough now?" He stroked him and watched Yuushi get that predatory look back in his eyes again.

Then that sexy look left again and stupid Yuushi was back. Gakuto was disappointed. He liked the way that other Yuushi, the dangerous confident and yeah, sexy one was but he kept getting the other one. Damn. Yuushi asked, "Are you doing this because you still feel you owe me? Or so I'll protect you?"

He was a genius after all. "No. You gave me dirt on you about what you did to Sato and you already swore. We're even. Now shut up!" Gakuto teased a bead of wetness from his tip and rubbed it in with his thumb. Gakuto took his own erection in his other hand and watched that look he liked come back into Yuushi's eyes as Yuushi watched him stroke them both. Yuushi leaned up and kissed him that really good soft way and he made that little humming noise. Sexy Yuushi was back.

Gakuto was really getting into it but stupid Yuushi came back and pulled away again. If the guy could turn off his brain for a minute they could have some fun. "I'm not going to make love to you until you love me. Until its making love. Until you ask me to make love to you because you love me. Because you want to be with me."

Gakuto swore and said, "Yuushi! What are you a girl? How many times I gotta tell you to shut up?" He licked Yuushi's now wet tip making that goofy look go away and the hot sexy Yuushi come back. Yuushi took Gakuto's erection in his hand and slid it along his length. Oh. The same sexy really good slow way just like he kissed. Gakuto realized that sexy Yuushi was probably really good at this and would be probably really good at everything else too. Damn. Gakuto wanted to try it all. He wondered what Yuushi looked like when he came. How much noise the guy made and how many times a night he could come. He also wondered how long it would take him to get Yuushi to have sex anyway. Maybe an hour with the goofy Yuushi to wear him down and two minutes tops with the sexy predatory one.

The goofy one was back with more to say and stupid Yuushi went to talk again. Gakuto made a noise of frustration and flipped himself over on his back. He kicked at the bed with his legs and hands in frustration. Yuushi rolled over onto his side and asked slowly, "Problem?"

"Yeah. You gonna stop talking and do this or what?"

"Do this? Do what? You Gakuto? I've already told you I will not be with you until its making love. I'm going to make you mine."

"Yuushi? In case you haven't noticed yet, we're both guys, you don't have to romance and seduce me. You don't have to sweet talk me. See? I'm naked. The foreplay is over."

"The hell it is." Yuushi drawled slower than watching grass grow, "Gakuto, I want to romance and seduce you. I want..."

I want you to shut up Yuushi! Gakuto realized he was going to have to take matters again into his own hands or this could go on for days. Yakkity Yuushi was going again to express his feelings blah, blah, blah... Gakuto turned on him, wrapped his legs around him, slid their naked erections together, and said, "Just shut up and fuck me Yuushi."

He watched as that really hot look was back again in Yuushi's eyes. That was better. Gakuto was very turned on that the Yuushi he wanted was back. If he could only keep him there for about an hour...and then to his disappointment, sexy Yuushi started to slip away as the goofy Yuushi tried to fight his way back to talk about stupid feelings again.

Gakuto decided to fight. Yeah, Yuushi could talk, just as long as he kept it dirty and hot then he could talk forever. As sexy Yuushi he could ramble on and on. Gakuto would even listen. He said, "Then if you won't fu...make love to me then kiss me, touch me, tell me how your gonna make love to me. Come on Yuushi, make me feel good, and tell me all the things you're gonna do to me. Tell me all the things you wanna do to me and all the things you've thought about us doing. Tell me how you're gonna make me yours." Gakuto kissed him hard and deep and waited until he heard that little interesting humming noise.

Sexy Yuushi was back and appeared to have won the fight thanks to Gakuto's help. He kissed Gakuto and it was that long slow hot kind of kiss but now it was more insistent. It wasn't a soft tease anymore. Yuushi moaned that humming noise more and Gakuto was happy he had the hot Yuushi back. Especially when the tensai said in a low sexy way in between covering Gakuto's mouth with his lips and tongue in wet hot kisses, "You want me to tell you Gakuto or show you?"

Hell yeah Gakuto liked this Yuushi better, "Show me." Oshitari was already wrapping Gakuto's erection back in his hand and moving in that so damn good way while he kissed him. Gakuto went to put his hands around Yuushi's too but he moved away so Gakuto moved them to his shirt and started undoing more buttons that Yuushi must have redone. He undid one and ripped the rest off. The sexy Yuushi made that humming noise in his mouth in response and tossed the shirt away.

Hell yeah. Gakuto didn't remember Yuushi's body being this cut or his skin looking like it would feel this nice up against his. When the hell had Yuushi started looking this good? Damn. Yuushi must have been working out hard to look this good. Gakuto realized he had been stuck with Sato for a long time with only a few girls on the side. Gakuto moved his hands to Yuushi's cinnamon colored nipples and liked how hard they already were. He liked how Yuushi hummed a little more in that strange moan when they were pinched and played with. Gakuto sucked on each of them and liked how he felt them get even harder in his mouth. Yuushi moved his mouth back to Gakuto's and drew him into another one of those good kisses where Yuushi kissed him back all swirly. "You're not circumcised." Oshitari said and sounded surprised. Yuushi must have checked Gakuto out just not up close. Gakuto kept himself rolled back all the time and people usually thought he was until they touched him.

Yuushi played with him more and Gakuto from the many times starting and stopping was close to coming already. He usually came quick the first time but then could last longer with each time. When it was good Gakuto liked to go all night provided a few rests and snacks were provided between action. Damn. He was close. Very close. "Yeah, Yuushi I'm gonna..." Yuushi gripped his base hard, very hard, and Gakuto thrust his hips into the touch as he had an orgasm, but Oshitari kept him from coming. It felt good for a moment and then it just felt even more urgent that he come. Damn. Gakuto hadn't had a dry orgasm since he was little and played with himself. Since before he could come. He looked at Yuushi in pure surprise.

Sexy Yuushi smiled in a very sexy way. Then he kissed Gakuto again softly using only his lips. He kept his hand clamped around Gakuto's straining erection and did not move on him. Gakuto had just thought about how nice those lips kissing him like that would feel on other places on his body. Oh and his tongue too. Yeah, then as if he read his mind, Yuushi added his tongue licking and playing with Gakuto's mouth in a sexy, soft tease. Gakuto made another little mewing sound in his mouth but all Yuushi did was hold him and kiss him. Gakuto went to put his own hand on himself but Yuushi took it away. He was actually throbbing with need to be touched and writhed on the bed to come. He started to think that maybe Yuushi wouldn't let him but that was strange. Sato often wouldn't let him but that was because as soon as Sato was done he left. He didn't care if Gakuto liked it or came or now.

And what was also strange was Yuushi was hard and not even doing anything about it. Gakuto kissed him a little harder, hoping that maybe Yuushi would take the hint. Maybe this Yuushi also didn't know when to let a joke go. Yuushi lowered his head and lightly in that swirly way kissed and licked one of Gakuto's nipples. Gakuto arched his back into the soft touch and tried to sneak arching his hips to loosen that grip from him so he could come. Yuushi just kept kissing his nipple in a nice so nice soft way but too light and his firm grip on the base of his erection never changed. Yuushi kissed his nipple lighter and lighter driving him insane and then he switched to kiss his other one. "Yuushi!" Gakuto demanded. Yuushi apparently couldn't hear him.

He was going to demand again but then Yuushi licked up his neck and bit him lightly. Gakuto again moaned and tried to move their mouths together. He wanted Yuushi to kiss him again like he did before but Yuushi wouldn't. When their mouths met, Yuushi let Gakuto kiss him but didn't really kiss him back. Gakuto groaned in frustration in his mouth. He looked in Yuushi's eyes to see if goofy Yuushi was back. He wasn't but Yuushi still wasn't kissing him. Gakuto tried to think of something really hot to say that sexy Yuushi would like. Something he wouldn't be able to resist. He had just thought of something when he felt Yuushi's hand again moving on his erection. He moaned but he was frustrated. When he wanted Yuushi to move his hand he kissed him and when he moved his hand he stopped kissing him. All he wanted right now was for Yuushi to kiss him. No. Now all he wanted to do again was come. He felt that pressure building up even more and knew he was close. Maybe if he came Yuushi would kiss him. This time Gakuto decided to be smart and not tell him when he was going to come. He tried to not move or make any noise but a whimper came out of his mouth and he arched up but not before Yuushi had again clamped his hand down around his base not letting him have the release he sought. He moaned low as he had another dry frustrating orgasm. It felt good but the real one would be so much better. Especially if Yuushi kissed him that really good way while he came. Damn, what else did Yuushi know how to do really good like this?

Gakuto kept pressing his lips to Yuushi's hoping he would take the hint. He explored inside Yuushi's mouth and kissed him. Gakuto knew he kissed really well. Girls told him all the time how good he kissed but Yuushi still was only barely kissing him back. And his damn hand wasn't moving on him but was holding him back again. In pure frustration Gakuto half begged and half-moaned softly, "Yuu-shi...?"

Yuushi in response only pulled away from Gakuto kissing him and bent again to play with his nipple. Gakuto writhed up and arched his back to meet his mouth as at least one part of him got to enjoy those slow soft swirls of tongue and lips. Yuushi started moving his hand again, even softer than before. Gakuto thought that eventually he would have to come so bad not even Yuushi would be able to hold him back. Or would he? Gakuto writhed on the bed.

Yuushi stopped kissing his nipple and moved again to lick and nip along his neck. Gakuto felt himself trembling all from just Yuushi's damn hand! Yuushi made that humming moan noise as he kissed his face and got closer to his mouth. Then Yuushi looked at him and said in that stupid lovey way, "Gakuto, I'm going to make you mine." Before Gakuto could think of how stupid that lovey way was or how stupid Yuushi was he kissed Gakuto again. In that slow swirling way with his lips and tongue while he moved his hand more on him. Gakuto thought Yuushi would stop him from coming again so he tried not to come while he tried to not show Yuushi he was so close at the same time. He kissed Yuushi back and his arms and legs were shaking and he gasped for air, bucked his hips, and thrust into Yuushi's hand suddenly coming hard while still trying not to. His eyes closed and he opened his mouth but no sound came out as he came more than he thought he ever had.

After he came, Gakuto lay there a little in shock and quite worried. He was starting to think Yuushi was serious. And now he would be Gakuto's roommate. Yeah, no one hurting him would be great. Unbelievably great but he didn't want the rest. Not all that lovey crap. Plus he knew that Yuushi would just question him for a few days and then drop him like he did everyone else. All right, so sexy Yuushi was pretty hot but the other stupid goofy yakkity pun-telling annoying Yuushi was who he was, right? Gakuto was really liking the kissing though. Even now Yuushi was kissing him almost senseless. Which was nice. And he considered that maybe Yuushi didn't like to go down on a guy with his mouth. Maybe that was why he only used his hand. Maybe Yuushi really just liked girls but experimented with guys. Yuushi had gone out with way more girls than guys.

Yuushi started kissing him down his chest and Gakuto gasped as he reached what was left of his erection and took it in his mouth again in that slow swirly so hot way. It was even better than he thought it was going to be. Gakuto was so sensitive it was almost painful even though Yuushi's touch was very light. And licking. A lot of licking. Now on his stomach. And a little higher. Oh. Damn. Yuushi was looking right at him and cleaning Gakuto up with long slow licks of his tongue. And as he licked his way up Gakuto's chest, he heard Yuushi making that humming noise again. Damn. That was pretty hot. He was pretty tired. He could usually go a few times without needing to rest usually but the first time he came wasn't normally that big. Ever. But this was hot. Gakuto was hard again.

Yuushi cleaned him completely. He moved up to Gakuto's mouth and paused as if after what he just did might make Gakuto not want to kiss him. Gakuto almost laughed. If Yuushi only knew...he arched himself up and pressed a kiss into Yuushi's mouth because that was pretty hot. Damn Yuushi was...kinky. As he moved he felt Yuushi's erection against his skin hard and wet and ready. Gakuto went to take him in his hand and thought he might just take him in his mouth the first time. He was tired but hell he didn't want to stop. Not when Yuushi was so ready and full of surprises. Yuushi again moved his hand away, "Its late. You've had a long day. We have another long day ahead and we're moving tomorrow. We need to be at our best and in order to do that, we need to rest a while."

"But..." Gakuto started and Yuushi looked at him as if he wasn't sure what the objection was, Gakuto decided that the blood wasn't getting to Yuushi's brain again and he would have to state the obvious, "You're hard..."

Yuushi smiled again in that parent so pleased with their cute kid way when they say or do something adorable, "I'm fine. Let's get some rest." Yuushi then pulled the covers up over himself and a little on Gakuto knowing he would still be too warm after coming. Gakuto couldn't sleep like this though and was still confused as to whether Yuushi wanted to sleep really or what. How could he try to go to bed like that and not at least touch himself. Maybe that was some kinky thing Yuushi had too. Maybe he would wanna touch him or do it when Gakuto was asleep. Gakuto worried. He worried and then started to look around. Yuushi looked confused and then tried to see what Gakuto was looking for. Gakuto found his underwear and grabbed them. He flipped his legs into the holes and lifted himself into the air to quickly throw them on. Then he slid under the covers again. "You always wear underwear?" Yuushi asked. Gakuto turned and had his back to him. He nodded and lay on his side. He worried that Yuushi would want to cuddle again because he sort of had when Gakuto was upset earlier but Gakuto might have moved to him because he was afraid of sliding off the bed too.

Gakuto was really not a cuddler. He hated how girls always tried to cling to him when they slept. Especially after sex. But he and Yuushi didn't have sex. He was the only one who came. He wondered if Yuushi was still hard. He looked over at him. He was laying on his back under the covers. Gakuto really thought that Yuushi would be all over him when they tried to sleep. He didn't even seem interested though. Maybe Yuushi was tired. Or maybe he would jerk off after Gakuto went to sleep. "Yes? Are you all right?" Yuushi asked when he noticed Gakuto's look. Gakuto didn't know what to say so he turned back around and shrugged.

Yuushi moved so that he lay on his side behind him and Gakuto wiggled back so that he pressed his back against Yuushi's chest. Yuushi was still hard. If Yuushi wanted to touch him he probably would put his arm around him now. But he didn't. His arm was at his side. Gakuto looked up in the mirror to check. Mirrored ceilings might be a good thing over a bed. Maybe Yuushi would want one in their new room.

Okay. Gakuto was a little annoyed by that random though. What the hell? He wasn't stupid Yuushi's boyfriend or anything. He wasn't a stupid girl who fooled around with a guy once and instantly thought the guy was his boyfriend. Gakuto could barely remember the last time he actually had a boyfriend. Someone he would call his boyfriend he meant because several guys he had been with, not really dated but been with, would always call him their boyfriend. And girls always called him their boyfriend. A little kissing and he was their boyfriend. And they would be all over him like sticky rice clinging to him and weighing him down while he tried to sleep.

Gakuto blamed his being weird and thinking random thoughts on strange Yuushi. Strange Yuushi who again had moved a little away so he still lay on his side but they weren't touching again. And really Gakuto had a bad day today. Tomorrow would be bad too. Sato was out there. Yuushi looked strong, stronger than Gakuto realized, and he probably was able to get Sato the first time but how much had Kabaji actually done? What if Yuushi wasn't enough? And what about his Yuushi info? How the hell would he explain that to the girl in his English class? And Gakuto had to face Taki tomorrow. And Taki would tell everyone. It would be all over the school. Taki might even tell everyone about that. It wasn't fair. Gakuto was always getting picked on. His brother was really big and strong and his sister was really pretty and smart and he got picked on all the time. But he knew he was his mom's favorite. Gakuto realized he forgot to call his mom earlier with everything that happened. He felt bad and hoped she wouldn't worry. She made him call her two times every week and always worried. He would have to really keep this from his voice or his mom would get upset. She always thought things like that might happen to him again. Thinking about his mom he missed her and he made a little noise without meaning to.

Yuushi came closer and put his arms around him. He kissed his neck and by his ear a few times in soft swirly kisses. "Shh. Its okay. It'll be all right. I won't let anyone hurt you ever again. Shh..." Yuushi gave his neck another swirly kiss and licked there with his tongue. Gakuto wiggled closer and again pressed himself to Yuushi's erection. He just liked to make sure it was there, all right? He told himself it didn't mean anything, he was just curious as to how the hell the guy could sleep like that. "Gakuto, close your eyes." Yuushi said in his slow southern accented voice. Gakuto did. "Relax your toes." He did that too and was surprised to find his toes were not relaxed before Yuushi told him to. "Now relax the balls of your feet... Your arches... The top of your feet... Your heels..." Yuushi slowly said things for Gakuto to relax going slowly up his body. Gakuto thought he was relaxed but as Yuushi said each thing Gakuto realized he could relax each part even more.

He fell asleep before Yuushi got to his hips.


On to Chapter 29!!
