Beginning Post:

 

The sun was setting, and Kai finally finished his shift at the auto shop. He was greatful that he was able to work and attended school, though it wasn't easy. On his way home, he stopped by a convince store, he rarely ever had time to cook, and didn't want to waste money eating out, so he often ate grab and go meals since they were extremely cheap and convenient. As he entered, he waved at the employee who recognized him, since he was a regular. But he suddenly felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He checked the device, seeing that he received a text from Yukie.

 

It had been a little over a week since they saw each other, and even tho Kai texted him nearly everyday religiously, he didn't always reply to them. They had probably only talked over the phone a few times. To be honest they were both pretty busy. Between his job and school it was no suprise that they struggled to find time for each other. But sometimes Kai wondered if Yukie did it on purpose, like he was avoiding him. 

Luckily he was done for today, but some days he worked late afternoon, or had overnight shifts. It just depended on the schedule, school, and whos availabe. It was hard to balance...having such a life but he knew it wasn't going to last forever. His end goal? Open up his own shop. Wouldn't that be nice? To finally have something that belonged to you. 

 

He read Yukies text message. He was asking to come over and crash at his place. 

 

This started happening fairly recently. The first few months after meeting Yukie, he wouldn't stay the night or invite him over. Even now, Kai still has never seen Yukies place. But now Yukie would ask to stay the night at least once or twice a month. And it was always after having a difficult clinet.

 

Yukie was an escort. 

 

Kai wanted to believe that he was maybe...warming up to him...that maybe...he could be his safe place. 

 

 He texted the other back.

 

[ Key is under the mat. Help yourself. I'm at the convenience store, text me if you want something. Be there in 10. ]

 

He hit send and slipped his phone back into his pocket, with a bored expression on his face. He and Yukie weren't dating but they did have a rather odd relationship. Kai wanted to date him, he had tried and ask a few times, but he always shot him down...and for some reason Yukie refused to have sex with him. 

 

One time he offered to pay him as a joke, curious to see what he'd say...and his response.

 

[ You can't afford me. ]

 

He said it rather coldly, and matter-a-factly. Only to laugh and change to subject. Why couldn't he take him seriously? He still didnt know. Its been 6 months since they met and he didnt feel any closer to him. There was still so much he didn't know. Yukie was always so reserved and distant with him, selling his body as if it was normal. 

 

He was using him. 

 

Kai knew that. He wasn't stupid...but...he...liked him. Or at least...he wanted to. This was going to be the fifth time Yukie would be staying at his place, bruised and battered. He couldn't help but wondered if Yukie took on a new client that enjoyed inflicting pain. He was starting to get worried about him. 

 

It was hard to put into words what Kai felt for him...maybe it was pity....but for some odd reason he was just...drawn to him...and he wanted to...save him? Was that so wrong? Not to mention...Yukie was so...beautiful. If only he had the right connections, then maybe he could of been a model instead of a esort. 

 

Yukie built this wall around him, a wall so thick and high that no one could climb it...and yet...he tried. He wanted to know the person...behind that wall. Kai knew it wasn't a good idea to get emotionally invested with someone like him...

 

( What am I even doing...)

 

Since Yukie was staying over, he decided to buy some extra bandages and healing ointment. He stopped in the frozen section, grabbing a few meals, but he found himself standing in front of the ice cream section. Didn't Yukie like ice cream? He couldn't recall what flavor tho. Maybe Yukie could use something sweet....

 

He grabbed a small tube of vanilla ice-cream and headed to the counter to pay. 

 

____________________________________

 

" Yue-- Im home." 

 

Kai entered his apartment, and shut the door behind him, locking it. He quickly took off his shoes and walked down the narrow hall way, entering the open living space, the kitchen, living room, and dinning room all connected. He quickly made his way over to the fridge to put away the food he bought, not wanting it to melt or spoil. 

 

_____________________________________

 

" Yoshida." 

 

Sett slowly opened his eyes. He had just laid down on the couch when he heard someone call his name. He sighed in irritation. 

"Can't you see I'm trying to take a nap."

 

" My apologies, but Sho has dropped off his report. "

 

Sett's eyes widened ever so slightly. His nap would have to wait. "Give it here."

 

Sett laid on the couch, reading through Sho's detailed report. Only three people knew about this...himself, Sho, and his assistant Okimoto. Six years had passed since then, and he was still taking responsibility. Monitoring Haruhi from afar. He had paid for his medical bills when shit hit the fan...he had taken care of the men who hurt Haruhi..but...he never faced him. He knew it was over...he didnt want to hear it from Haru's mouth. Everything that happened...was his fault in the grand scheme of things. 

 

( Still struggling in math....that hasn't changed...and still obsessed with sweets...) He smiled alittle, remembering a time when Haru would often drag him to cafés after school. He always ended up spending so much money on him and his sweettooth. He had no idea how he managed to eat all those sweets and stay so slim.

 

He flipped through the pages, not much had changed in Haruhi's day to day routine however he noticed that the boy recently went to a local clinic two days ago. Was he getting sick? Haruhi was the type to overexert himself and he honestly had a rather weak constitution.

 

He read the report on his phone record and social media. There was a number he didnt recognize. Was he talking to someone new? He knew all of the people in Haruhis social circle, even his teachers...so he would know if Haruhi was seeing someone. Was he dating again?

 

He sighed running his hand through his hair and tossing the thick report on the floor. 

( It doesn't matter...as long as he's safe...)

NAME:Yukie HayashI

AGE: 22

SEXUALITY: Gay

OCCUPATION: Escort, Whore, Stripper, Whatever pays his bills.

POSTION: Uke

HIGHT: 5.5’

LIKES: playing video games, Drinking, Partying, Music, Fashion.

DISLIKES: Assholes, Themeparks, Scary Movies, his Boss.
 

PERSONALITY: Cold, Distant with others except those he’s let in his life. Self destructive and sees himself as worthless at times.

PAST:  Yukie had a rough start to life. Being abandoned and unwanted most of his life he grew up in an orphanage until he aged out. He worked odd jobs until he was offered a solid job being an escort. After that Yukie realized just how much nicer life was being wanted and cared for even if in the end he was just being used. Because of this realization it caused him to be cold…cruel even to those who tried to love him. He didn’t believe in such things…the few men who smacked him around out of “love” had proved it was just a fairytale. Instead Yukie had those he trusted. The few he could find safe. Those he could hide out near while healing his wounds so he wouldn’t get more punished for pissing off high paying clients. 
 

Yukie enjoyed his “relationship” with Kai but he knew it wasn’t possible to be real. Yukie wouldn’t drag such a nice guy into the gutters with him he wouldn’t let his boss find out about him. It was to dangerous his boss was unforgiving. Kai wasn’t like the men Yukie usually was with and Yukie despite his cold demeanor and assholish behavior refused to see the only good in his world like them. It was only fair Yukie turned him down and pushed him away….this part of the world was cruel and Yukie had made the mistake of falling in love at one point with his boss and in turn he wasn’t able to escape.

Yukie wouldn’t let Kai be destroyed or shamed by what he was. He would reject him…even if it meant one day he himself would be thrown away.

————

 “mmmh I’m in here~.” Yukie replied drunkenly as he sat in front of the tv the man sipping his beer as he sat in the dark. The bag of alcohol the usually twenty four pack only had one taken out of it proof Yukie had only been home for five minutes at most that he had debated actually staying. 

Yukie sat quietly on the floor he was dressed in more extravagant clothing this time the flashy sequined red top and black pants ripped and half on him. His hair was soaked in what could only be a strong smelling cheap alcohol. Yukie like usual didn’t look over towards Kai as he just stared at the tv in the dark his face covered in fresh bruises and some bits of blood soaking through different areas of his clothes.

The beating was so much worse this time. 

Yukie who’s face was usually done up so pretty and who’s skin use to never have any bruises only hickeys and playful bitemarks was covered in cigarette burns and deep bruises, ones that would have made anyone question if his arms weren’t broken. His arms were decorated with bruises and needle marks that showed he was grabbed and dragged quite often tonight and had partaken in who knows what. His face was covered in bruises and his lip was split showing he had been beaten only hours before coming here. The worse part, out of all of it had to have been his neck, the obvious signs of being strangled and choked…hell possibly collared at one point was only proven by how much worse his neck was the flesh painted in deep blacks and purples. 
 

“For I awhile I thought you would have bailed on me and taken more hours at work, course I’m unable to offer payment for my stay here.” Yukie explained as he nudged the beer case over as his ‘payment’. “Boss cut my hours.” Yukie explained his voice showing no emotion as he spoke. Yukie was lying out his ass, the man having been so busy entertaining and working. Not to mention his boss had punished him by taking his phone for a while having only giving it back after he agreed to go out for work this morning.

NAME: Haruhi (Haru) Kimura

AGE: 26

SEXUALITY: Gay

OCCUPATION: College Medical School Student 

POSTION: Uke

HIGHT: 5.5’

LIKES: Plants, herbal medicine, tea, reading, nature, Aquariums.

DISLIKES: Drinking, partying, smoking, Early mornings.

PERSONALITY: Haruhi is hard working, he is a night owl and is working towards becoming a herbal doctor with his own practice wanting to be his own boss. He is open about his sexuality and his relationships. He suffers from Health issues causing him to be frail and sick rather easily it’s what pushed him into herbal medicine.

PAST:  Haruhi grew up in a pretty normal family from the outside the basic cookie cutter home life. Inside he was a prisoner, his parents extremely overbearing and controlling. When it came to his life every inch of it was planned down to who he would marry and how many grandchildren he would provide. His parents micromanaged every second of his life from who he could be around to everything he ate. Growing up he hadn’t noticed it was suffocating until he met Sett. They dated. It was everything to Haruhi a compleatly change from the life he never knew he needed to escape.

Until one day it wasn’t. The attack was brutal leaving him half alive in the hospital room. When he came though he expected Sett to come visit but when he never did Haruhi couldn’t help the feeling of dread at loosing Sett that overcame him. His parents of course were notified he was in the hospital, they only continued to tightened their grip on his life.

Since that day things took a turn for the worst at home and mentally for Haruhi. He wasn’t allowed to leave causing him to sink into a horrible depression the normally happy and bright man changing into a deeply distant person. Everything in his life was now done online and away from society the man to afraid to leave or try to escape his family now. Haruhi’s parents and himself were only leaving the house now for collage interviews at high end prestigious schools. Eventually during one of the rare drives to the interviews the weather took a turn for the worse and they all had got in an horrible accident that made the news. Haruhi suffered serious wounds his memory suffering damage from it making him quite forgetful causing even more deep traumatic scars alongside his physical wounds. The only bright side is Haruhi was more happy the man smiling more and being a touch more naive in life.

Having been the only survivor he spent a few years in the hospital healing and getting back to a semi normal health. Soon after he was released he was accepted into the highest medical school in the country. Haruhi ended up inheriting his family’s life insurance, and selling the family home he paid for his school in full and covered the hospital bills and the funerals. Once done he packed up his clothes and a few belongings and moved to a small apartment closer to the collage leaving his own life behind going by Haru to everyone that met him.

————

“Look…it just doesn’t make sense I understand that you need to measure it out but I don’t see why I need to memorize the amount when u can just keep a chart and keep updating it.” Haru grumbled as he sighed and leaned back against the seat staring at the man before him the new tutor being his fifth one this month the others having been unable to deal with his inability to understand the lessons.

“Your goal is to own your own practice there you can do the whole chart thing till you’re blue in the face, but for the tests in your classes you need to show you can retain information. Even with your memory problems you should remember the basics. You can’t use a sticky note for everything in your life.” The man explained as he sighed and ran his hands through his brown hair the tutor a little annoyed with Haru but well, the pay was more than he would get for three clients and he knew why now.

”…I need a break.” Haru asked as he sighed and got up heading outside to smoke. The smoking was a new habit brought on by finals and the last month of work and stress. His apprenticeship has become grueling and he couldn’t wait to move onto another hospital the man running it treating him more like eye candy than a co worker. Leaning against the wall Haru closed his eyes to rest softly inhaling the smoke as he took his time the man exhausted and not really wanting to continue going back at his books.

 Eventually he could feel his tutors eyes on him and he went inside taking his seat he continued his lessons until the cafe closed. Bidding the tutor farewell they exchanged numbers and Haru paid the man before heading home checking his phone again for messages as he took the familiar route to grab dinner and back to his two bedroom house the place cozy and quiet. 

Settling down on the couch Haru  didn’t even care to turn on the lights or lock the doors being to tiered to do much more then lay on the couch. A hour later he sighed as his blue eyes caught the clocks time as he groaned at the reminder of work early in the morning. Sitting up he opened his food the cheap meal lacking any real nutrients as he ate. Living alone Haru survived on what meals he could buy. Having never learned to cook the kitchen sat unused and the fridge full of beer and some small basics he could snack on. His eating habits over the year had caused a decline in his health and last week a hospitalization. 

The doctors had suggested he eat more. They had given him more pills to help him sleep. More pills to help him cope. 

He was tiered of pills.

Finishing his food Haru opened up the bottle of pills looking at the colorful assortment as he thought briefly to how he could so easily just take them all…how it could fix his sleep problems. Taking two out Haru ignored the no drinking on the side and slipped them in his mouth drinking a beer as he got up wobbly from the table and went to shower.

 

[Sosuke0549]

Kai heard Yukies voice, he glanced over his shoulder, seeing a figure sitting on the floor, watching TV. Why was he sitting in the dark?

He turned on the light, slowly approaching him. 

"Have you eaten? I bought you some ice cre----"

His voice faded as his eyes finally fell on Yukie. What the hell happened to him? This wasnt the first time he'd seen Yukie bruised and battered after a difficult client but this was by far the worst he'd ever seen! 

 

"Jesus! Yue--"

 

He sat in front of him, touching his face. 

 

"What the hell happened." 

 

He took a moment to examine his face, it was covered in fresh bruises, his lip was split, and even his clothes had blood stains on them. "Let me see." He muttered, taking his arm, and rolling up his sleeve. He couldn't help but notice little burns on his skin...were these...cigarette burns? 

"C-can you move your arm..." He questioned. Worried it might be broken. The bruises on his skin were so dark, it was concerning. When Yukie bent his arm, a soft sigh of relief escaped his lips. " Good...it's not broken...but..." He fell silent seeing needle marks on his skin. He couldn't help but feel his stomach sink. Since when did Yukie do drugs? This was the first time he'd seen these marking on him...and he was extremely familiar with drugs and where that path led. He didnt want to see Yukie end up like his mother.

 

He bit his lip seeing Yukies neck, which deeply concerned him. Who ever he was with was extremely sadistic and brutal. Judging from the marks, it wasnt hard to see that Yukie was strangled...probably until he became unconscious. There was a blackish/purple line around his neck. 

 

 [ “For I awhile I thought you would have bailed on me and taken more hours at work, course I’m unable to offer payment for my stay here.” ]

 

"What are you talking about...you've never paid me before. Why would I make you start now.."

 

Kai couldn't help but frown as Yukie nudged a beer can over to him. Seriously?

 

[ “Boss cut my hours.” ]

 

His voice was so emotionless. If his boss really cut his hours...then why was he looking like this? 

 

"Don't move." He muttered. He slowly stood and headed to the kitchen, grabbing a first aid kit from under the sink along with the bandages and ointment he had bought from the convenience store and a bag of ice from the freezer. When he returned he sat down in front of Yukie and did what he always did...patched him up. " Put this on your neck." He said softly, handing him the ice, before starting with Yukies arms. Cleaning the needle wounds with disinfectant before applying ointment and covering it with a badge. He then had Yukie take off his shirt, and he took care of any open wounds he saw, and then his legs. When he finally moved to his face, all Yukie needed was some hot and cold cream and a badge on his cheek. It took nearly an hour for Kai to address all of his wounds...and for once Yukie didn't protest. 

 

He grabbed Yukies chin, and gently applied some vaseline on his busted lip. It would take some time for him to fully bounce back from this ordeal. 

 

As he finished, he found himself holding Yue's chin for a very long moment, he was staring at his lips...wanting to kiss him...but he didn't and immediately released him. 

 

Instead, he moved next to the other, and rested his head on Yukies shoulder, his hand reaching for Yues, as he tried to hold it. 

 

"Yue...I'm..worried about you..."

( Will he listen to me this time? )

 

" Don't...go back..."

He said softly, squeezing his hand. 

 

[Yukonwolfspirit]

Yukie sighed a little at Kai’s gentle touch the man secretly enjoying every second of it, it was comforting though he would never admit it.Sitting and staring at the tv Yukie didn’t protest as he was cared for and bandaged. He wouldn’t lie that for once the pain was rather intense and he needed the care. While he had been beaten before and came to Kai for a break…this client had gone to the extreme. 

As Kai settled down more beside him Yukie looked over a little as he felt Kai’s head rest against his shoulder. Yukie wouldn’t ever admit it, he would stay cold and distance himself from any affection he knew falling for Kai wasn’t allowed. 

He was a fallen man, and one in a dangerous position where Kai would get hurt if his “Boss” thought he was trying to get out or get away. It was better for them both if Yukie just existed in his life…he knew though if Kai ever left him it would be the end of his safe place.

Sitting and watching the tv numbly Yukie finished his beer only to catch Kai trying to hold his hand. Yukie of course flinching at the touch as he found the softness of Kai’s hand holding his rather nice.

2 hours ago, Sosuke0549 said:

"Yue...I'm..worried about you..."

“I’m fine..…It was just a little disagreement…nothings broken and I’m not seriously hurt. You should worry more about your own life.” Yukie stated his voice cold as he spoke towards Kai the escort truly believing his words since in his mind if he didn’t end up in a hospital he wasn’t excused from his work. Sitting beside Kai Yukie refused to look at him he refused to fall for such tricks…but when he fully felt Kai hold his hand Yukie couldn’t help the small shift of comfort he felt from the act.
 

2 hours ago, Sosuke0549 said:

" Don't...go back..."

“You know I can’t quit. I just can’t…” Yukie snapped the conversation one that had been repeated over the years as he pulled away sharply from Kai feeling his friend had overstepped. Looking at Kai with such angry and hurt eyes Yukie glared down at him before setting his drink down on the table and getting up the act proving to be more painful that he thought. Standing away from Kai Yukie went over to the window and opened it to smoke the man seriously mulling over his options. 

Taking out the pack he pulled one out his fingers shaking as Yukie took a few minutes to light it before finally taking a deep breath and exhaling out the window.

He was in hot water at work, dangerously hot water. He knew his boss was going to beat his ass on sight for even having the gall to fight back against his client and Yukie, he had fought back dirty and hard. The man he had left in the hotel room bleeding out definitely had a few deep stab wounds from the broken bottle Yukie had shoved into his stomach. It had been his only way of escape from a torture filled weekend. Yukie knew he needed to lay low…buy himself some time and hide away just long enough for his boss to cool down. There was also the fact he lost the payment…it was so much…he could earn the money away from his boss…he had done it before when the men skipped paying. Yukie could pay his “Boss” back what he lost and it would be less of a beating, and he would be back in his “Boss’s” graces and allowed back home. It would be easy right? Just two weeks tops.

Taking a final drag of his cigarette Yukie put it out in the windowsill and breathed out the fumes before closing the window as he looked down at Kai.

”I….I might need to stay for a bit. Can’t exactly go back to work looking like this…I…could stay until some bruising heals.” Yukie said with a small frown as he looked down at Kai not willing to let his heart fall for the male. “I…I need a place to stay until my second job starts in the evening….I do freelance work in my spare time. I’ll take care of your place while you work…cook and laundry and such.” Yukie explained trying to play off his acceptance of staying. Yukie had decided he was going to do easier clients for a while until he looked better until he could pay what he owed. 

“I need a Fucking shower. I smell like shit” Yukie grumbled as he went to go help himself to a hot shower not even having noticing the whole time his words were slurring as he walked towards the bathroom. Yukie wouldn’t have understood the slow effect of the drugs  Aphrodisiac on his body he wouldn’t have understood the burning running through his body or the sudden…urges he was feeling. He hadn’t ever touched such things the male being so careful in keeping away from drugs and only doing small amounts when safe.

Feeling the deep fiery burn of the drugs coursing through his body Yukie suddenly stumbled forward his body aflame as he caught himself on the wall. Taking a moment Yukie closed his eyes swearing as he realized he had been drugged. His body suddenly burning with deep need and a desire to be touched and fucked in ways that would shame anybody not in his line of work…he needed to quench the slutty thirst inside of him..

**********************************

Haru was groggy as he got up four hours later the man slowly getting dressed and ready for his shift. Gathering his things he headed to the bathroom and after showering and dressing he was out the door. Thirty minutes later he was at work deep in the closet organizing the inventory the man standing on the stepstool as he pulled jars down from the shelves ignoring his pervy boss watching him.

Haru was wearing what his boss demanded, his hair was pulled back in a cute thick curly ponytail, and while he wasn’t fond of the outfit he was grateful it wasn’t a size smaller. The scrubs at least allowed for him to comfortably move around and were just a touch tight against his body when be bent and was reaching like this. Whoever he reached up it showing off his toned body mostly his stomach and lower back. At times he couldn’t help but feel the outfit was deliberate after his first day joining since he was the only one working in this department and from what he knew his colleagues wore much more normal attire.

”Ah! Found it! It was in the wrong spot sir.” Haru explained as he smiled down at the man before climbing down and handing his boss the medicine. “Somehow it got in the wrong area, I could have swore I cleaned up in here last week well enough.” Haru admitted as he awkwardly smiled and turned to put away the ones he had pulled down. 

“Haru, all the students being mentored are going out tonight with there bosses, sort of a celebration for their hard work. I would like to take you out for drinks with everyone. You’ve been such a hard worker for me over the last six months.” Tadashiro said with a smile as he gently patted Haru’s back. “We can go together and meet up with everyone after work it would be a nice end to your apprenticeship here.” Tadashiro stated as Haru smiled kindly. Haru knew he couldn’t reject his bosses offer since he had rejected him from day one. Haru had no choice but to be flexible now since his boss would be writing his letter of work recommending and his skillset proving how well he did for the last six months.

”I think I would be free tonight, plus working so long I think I could use a break and a chance to see all my other colleagues.” Haru admitted as he smiled politely at the old man knowing he was in for a night of drinking and hopefully a way to let the man down easily.

-later-

“Yeah Tadashiro, I came where you said but I don’t see you. I think…I might have taken the wrong bus.” Haru stated as he looked around the glowing night light and colorful scene around him something he had never seen before. Standing in the street Haru sighed as he checked his phone waiting for his bosses message back or hell even a phone call. Haru cursed a little kicking himself for not going with his collages but well he couldn’t go out in his work clothes it was easier to go home and change.

Standing in the middle of the red district chaos Haru had dressed in what his co workers had suggested a bright and fun shirt and some nice black jeans basically an outfit he felt hot in. Checking his phone again Haru was oblivious to the world around him as he called Tadashiro again and then his colleagues all of his calls going to voicemail as they were all four drinks in at a bar only six buildings down from where Haru was. “Maybe I should ask for directions.” Haru whispered as he looked around and then to a building busy with tons of men dressed much like him (workers dressed flashy) and went inside to find someone in charge not knowing he was going straight into a lions den.

[Sosuke0549]

[ I’m fine..…It was just a little disagreement…nothings broken and I’m not seriously hurt. You should worry more about your own life.” ]

 

Kai's eyes fell to the ground as he once again hit Yukies wall. Yukie was in terrible shape, any sane person could see that! And yet...he acted like he was fine! 

 

[ You should worry more about your own life.] 

 

His words repeated over again in his head. If he did...he never would of met Yukie in the first place. This entire time Yue was avoiding eye-contact with him. Why? 

 

[ “You know I can’t quit. I just can’t…” ]

 

He snapped, physical pulling away, standing and retreating. Kai fell silent as Yue headed towards the window to smoke. 

" I don't know...you don't tell me anything..." he muttered. 

 

The room filled with tension, the only sound that could faintly be heard was coming from the TV. Kai glanced over at Yue. To him...he looked like a Injured bird desperately wanting to fly... He wanted to help him...but how?

 

He sighed and began to put his materials away, placing bandages and ointment back into his first aid kit. He said nothing as he stood and headed into the kitchen to place his kit right back where he found it. 

 

He then grabbed a kettle, and filled it with water. As he did, Yukie returned. His voice rather quite as he spoke to him as if nothing was wrong. As if his cold demeanor and rejection never occurred just mintues ago.

 

[ ”I….I might need to stay for a bit. Can’t exactly go back to work looking like this…I…could stay until some bruising heals.” ]

 

" Sure..." 

 

He muttered. Turning off the water and placing the kettle on the stove. 

 

[ “I…I need a place to stay until my second job starts in the evening….I do freelance work in my spare time. I’ll take care of your place while you work…cook and laundry and such.” ]

 

" Sure..." 

 

He leaned against the counter, crossing his arms. He too...had withdrew. Seeing this...Yukie only returned the coldness. The tension in the room building up once more. 

 

[ “I need a Fucking shower. I smell like shit”]

 

Kai watched as Yukie stumbled off, him being pissed was nothing new...him being cold and distant was nothing new...but him slurring his words after just one beer? Now that was new. Yukie could handle his alcohol surprisingly well for a short guy...

 

Curious Kai followed him and only intervened when he saw Yukie stumble, grabbing the wall for support. Was he feeling sick? Or was it sudden exhaustion? 

 

"I'm gonna touch you again..." 

 

Kai warned Yukie, before grabbing him and gently carrying him bridle style to his bedroom. He carefully placed Yukie on his bed, his hand touching his forehead. 

 

"You're warm... sleep here and take a shower in the morning...I'll go get you some medicine and I'll crash on the couch..." 

 

Kai was different...he always asked for permission before touching him...he always touched him so gently, with so much care and precision. Even when he was mad...he never raised his voice. He just....withdrew..

 

So far...no matter how badly Yue treated him..he always answered the phone. He always texted him, even if he had nothing to say or they had nothing to talk about, just to check on him, and he always let him stay over...never asking for anything in return. Not money...not sex...

 

Well...actually that wasn't entirely true...There was something Kai wanted from Yukie... love...commitment...a relationship...a single chance...and for him to quit his job...but that was likely never going to happen. 

 

But one can dream...

Sho was sitting in his car, getting sleepy. He was waiting for Haruhi to turn off his lights signaling that he was going to bed...but to his suprise, he was leaving his house. ( What? Where the hell are you going?) 

 

Where ever he was going, this was definitely out of his normal routine. Sho reluctantly followed him discreetly. 

 

"What the hell..." He muttered to himself. He parked his car about a block away before following Haruhi on foot, he was getting deeper and deeper into the city with blocked off roads and heavy traffic. Cars and people alike. He was confused when he realized that the boy was heading to the red light distract? 

 

( Well this is a suprise...)

 

He watched Harhi from across the street, he was on the phone and he looked rather frustrated and out of place. Was he lost? Or was he meeting someone? He was meticulously checking his phone pacing back and forth. (What's he waiting for? )

 

Sho continued to watch the red head from afar, only moving when Haruhi made his way into a club. Sho shook his head, standing at the entrance of the club. This was not your average club...and more importantly, Haruhi most definitely didn't belong here. 

 

( Why do I have a bad feeling about this...)

 

He sighed, slipping his hands into his leather jacket, following him into the lions den.

Loud music blasted from speakers and colorful lights shined all over the dance floor, It was extremely packed tonight...but then again...it was Friday night. This place was known for handing out drugs like candy and was technically out of their territory. In all honesty Sho didn't belong here. But as long as he didnt get caught...then he'd be fine. 

 

( Where the hell did he go..)

"Hey handsome, haven't seen you here before~ Mind if I buy you a drink?"

 

A guy with black hair and brown eyes approached Haruhi, he was wearing a black shirt and pants with a sliver chain around his neck. He was average looking, and there was nothing spectacular about him...but he was offering to buy Haruhi a drink, and who doesn't love free alcohol?

 

" Don't be a buzz kill! I insist!"

He grabbed his arms and brought him over to the bar, struggling to hear what Haruhi was saying thanks to the loud music. Something about being lost?

 

"Oh?! Your lost? That makes way more sense! I know this area, where are you trying to go?!"

He shouted. While they talked he ordered two drinks before handing the bartender a 20. 

 

"Oh! I know where that is. I can take you after we finish our drinks! Its not a problem!"

 

The guy seemed nice...even though when he handed Haruhi the fruity alcoholic drink, he had dropped something inside of it. With Haruhi being new and lost, and not to mention good looking, he was a perfect target to roofi. 

 

"Cheers!" He smiled, colliding there cups. 

But before Haruhi had a chance to take a sip, a man wearing jeans, a white shirt, and a black leather jacket suddenly smacked the drink out of Haruhi's hand, causing it to spill all over the stranger. The man who stopped Haruhi? It was Sho. He was wearing dark shades, so it was hard to see his face, but he had short black hair, and a nasty scar across his left cheek. 

 

"Don't drink that."

 

"YO! WHAT THE FUCK! What's your problem!" The man shouted, the drink drenching his shirt.

 

"Excuse me.." Sho told Haruhi, as he grabbed the guys shirt with one hand a punched him in the face with the other. He landed about four good hits on his face before letting the guy fall to the ground. Was the guy unconscious? A crowd of confused and worried bystanders began to surround them. Sho turned to Haruhi and grabbed his hand. 

 

"We need to get out of here." 

 

"Grab him!" 

"Get him!"

"Fucking bastard!!!"

"Don't let them get away!"

 

Sho quickly started to shove his way through the crowded club. Roughly pushing and knocking people out of his way. "Shit..there's more...Hurry up! We need to run."

 

With Haruhi, he ran towards the exit.
