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.

"I'm gonna touch you again..."

“A true gentleman asking for such things.” Yukie mumbled as his words slurred a touch more the man only tucking himself into Kai’s chest the room almost spinning. It seemed like an instant when Yukie found himself on the bed Kai gently touching his face.

15 hours ago, Sosuke0549 said:

"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..." 

“I don’t need any medicine. I’m fine…fucker just drugged me I just need to shower and rest for an hour.” Yukie explained as he covered his eyes for a moment not wanting to look at Kai for fear of doing what he had been so desperately trying to do for so long. He wanted to keep Kai at a safe distance but well, he couldn’t control himself. 

“….I-I didn’t know the guy but I was hired out for a week…” Yukie mumbled as he opened up ever so slightly his words tumbling out as he groggily sat up the drugs clearly creating a gate only seen when he was so drunk he had no filter. “Thought my Boss knew how to find better clients, at least maybe he would check in…call or something.” Yukie added his voice full of so much anger and frustration, as he looked down at the bloody mess he was and with shaking hands started to undress. 

Yukie wouldn’t feel the pain he was in due to the drugs running in his system, but his body was just as abused and bore just as dark bruises as his neck. Alongside the bruises were some heavier clear signs that he had been with this particular client for a while.
 

“He…My new boss…he’s much worse than the old one. More strict more demanding.” Yukie explained giving Kai the only crumb of information he had willing offered in the last six months.

Yukie was tiered, he was so tiered and broken and while he wouldn’t quit or leave…he saw no issue explaining some things to Kai. Yukie as he finished undressing only huffed at his body’s state his cock throbbing and his body burning from the aphrodisiac running through his body. He could only stumble forward towards the bathroom just enough to catch the wall for support as the poor man was unable to do more than stand.

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

”oh! Thank you I’ve never been around here so I’ll admit I’m new to the area.” Haru admitted with a smile as he took the drink not finding any issue with it since this wasn’t the first time he had been offered a drink or been helped by others while out and about.

As Haruhi went to take a sip he was suddenly stopped by a strangely familiar man who hit the drink out of his hands and all over the helpful friend. It was almost an instant where the scene changed in front of him one second Haru was taking with a new friend the next a stranger was suddenly punching the guys face in.

15 hours ago, Sosuke0549 said:

"We need to get out of here."

“Hey! Wait! I-I need, I still need to know where to find my group.” Haru stated  worriedly as he stood behind the mysterious stranger confused and following hesitantly as he was dragged forcefully away from the fight. Following the stranger Haru found himself suddenly ran behind him unable to break the strange man’s hold on his wrist as he followed until they stopped far enough outside of the bar Haru only then pulling away his breathing fast as he stumbled back a little taking a moment to catch his breath.

”….Who…The Fuck do you think you are….” Haru tried to swear out his voice shaking with anger as he instantly went from angry to a slightly calmer sense of self as a small wheeze of air escaped his lips. Haru instantly was distracted moving away slightly to steady himself against a wall the sudden act of running making his blood pressure skyrocket and his head feel dizzy as he felt around his pants pockets.

After what felt like hours to him Haru finally found the right pocket and reached into the pocket grabbing out some medicine and inhaler he had packed along with his wallet and some basics. Taking some pills out of the bottle he swallowed them dry and after a few breaths of his inhaler he had calmed down enough to not be at the point of fainting.

Looking back at the stranger he looked down at the man’s hand seeing the blood that made him instantly panic and feel secretly woozy.

“Shit…you’ll need stitches your loosing blood.” Haru stated as he gently took the man’s hand inspecting the wounds. “We should get you taken care of you might get infected…hospital would ask to many questions.” Haru mumbled as he sighed and taking the man’s hand ever so gently started to lead him back to his house. “You have until we get to my place to explain yourself…why you attacked him?” Haru mumbled not sure if taking this man back home was a good idea but well….it wouldn’t have been the first time he had fixed someone up at home.

[Sosuke0549]

Kai fell silent as Yukie informed him of his condition. That he wasnt sick, but drugged. He did see the needle injections when he was taking care of him, but he didnt know that the drugs were still in his system and without knowing what he was injected with, he wasnt going to he much help. He wasn't a doctor. 

 

"T-then..we should go to the hospital..." He said softly, but when he tried to keep Yukie from sitting up, he smacked his hand away. 

 

For a moment, then two said nothing...the atmosphere growing tense, until Yukie spoke. 

 

[ “….I-I didn’t know the guy but I was hired out for a week…” ]

 

Kai bit his lip. Was Yukie...opening up to him? He slowly sat at the end of the bed, listening and waiting for him to continue. Apparently Yukie trusted his "boss" a whole lot. Trusting him to pick better clients, despite the fact he was new...but the man didnt even check on him or his well being. It sounded like Yukie was afraid of this man...explaining that this new guy was much more strict and demanding than the last.

 

It sounded like...he was trapped...that was Kai's fear. So Yukie didn't have a choice. He wanted to leave...but couldn't. 

 

 Kai turned away as Yukie undressed. Not wanting to be lewd but also because...he hated seeing Yue like this...

 

He sighed softly as Yukie stumbled towards the bathroom. It seems there was no way of stopping him or getting him to stop...that's one thing he liked about him...how stubborn he was. 

 

"Since your so admit..." He muttered. "I'll help you..." 

 

So much for patching him up, he'd have to do it again. 

 

"Yue...I'm gonna touch you again.." 

 

He took his arm and put it over his shoulder, helping him into the bathroom. He had him sit on the closed toilet, as he turned on the water and began getting a bath ready. Since Yue was struggling to stand, having him sit in the tub and take a bath was going to be much better for him and less straining. It would also he easier for Kai to wash him. 

 

He filled the tub with warm soapy water before turning to Yukie. He couldn't help but notice that he was hard... probably a result of the drugs. He tried to ignore it and he gently placed Yue in the tub. 

 

"I'll help wash you.." 

 

He said softly. He grabbed a wash cloth and took Yues arm, removing bandages and gently scrubbing his skin. His touch was gentle...nothing like Yukies clients. Kai never sexualized Yue...and even now he was being kind and considerate dispite Yukie being so cold. He couldn't blame him...after everything he's been through...of course he was distant but at least he trusted him enough to come here when he needed help, and that was enough...at least...for now. 

 

He moved to Yukies back, moving in slow gentle circles. His touch was so soft...it probably felt odd to Yue. There were so many bruises and marks on his body...Kai wished he could heal him. Or at least, write over his wounds. 

 

 

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

 

When they had gotten far enough from the club and away from the scene was when Sho felt Harhi yank himself free from his grasp. He was breathing heavily, struggling to catch his breath. 

 

[ ”….Who…The Fuck do you think you are….”]

 

Sho realized he pushed Haruhi too hard. He knew of the boys health conditions. How could he not? 

 

"Do you have your inhaler?" He asked quickly hearing him start to wheeze. He tried to stay calm but Sho couldn't hide the fact the he was worried about him, the tension in his body only faded when he saw Haruhi reach into his pockets and pull out an inhaler and some sort of medicine. He watched as he swallowed some pills and took a hit of his inhaler, regaining control of his breathing. 

 

( Thank god...Sett would of killed me..) 

 

 [ “Shit…you’ll need stitches your loosing blood.”]

 

Sho paused and looked down at his hand, his knuckles were bleeding. ( I guess I punched him alittle too hard...) He didnt even notice. 

"I'm fine," he muttered. He flinched when the red head suddenly took his hand, inspecting his cuts. 

 

[ “We should get you taken care of you might get infected…"]

 

"I told you already. I'm fine."

 

[" Hospital would ask to many questions.” ]

 

Sho sighed. "I'm about to punch you..your not listening--"

 

He tensed feeling Haruhi pull him along. 

"H-hey!"

 

[ “You have until we get to my place to explain yourself…"]

 

"Uugghhh---" He groaned, sounding like a child being scolded. He ran a hand over his face, frustrated. Sett did say Haruhi was too kindhearted for his own good. And far too trustworthy. Sho could very well kill him, and he was pulling him along, taking him to his house! Why wasn't he scared of him?!

 

" How do you not know I'm not a serial killer." He muttered. 

 

[" why you attacked him?”]

 

(This kid just keeps ignoring everything I say!)

 

He stopped, yanking his hand away. He then did something surprising. He ripped the bottom of his shirt, and took the piece he removed, wrapping it around his hand. Not wanting to keep bleeding everywhere. 

" I have a car... I'll take you home..."

 

He took the lead, expecting Haruhi to follow behind him. They walked for a few minutes in silence until they reached a black car. He went over to the passenger side, opening the door for him. 

" If you want answers...get in.."

____________________________________

 

Once on the road, Sho turned on some music, keeping it low so the two could talk. He just hated awkward silence. He was still wearing his shades, even tho it was night time. 

 

" Your drink was spiked, thats the only reason I knocked that prick out...your too damn trusting. Especially in the Red Light district. "

"Yue...I'm gonna touch you again.." 

“You don’t have to keep asking…you can just touch me.” Yukie mumbled as he couldn’t hide the blush going across his face at the mention of his nickname the man secretly happy he had been given a nickname by Kai. Finding himself sitting down on the toilet while Kai worked on the bath Yukie couldn’t help but snicker at the thought of being washed such an intimate act so surreal. 
 

As Yukie sat in the tub the soft washcloth running over his body he couldn’t help but melt the bath being so soothing and gentle something he had longed so much for. Resting his head on his knees he looked over to Kai a small bit of softness in his eyes.

”I wish I could stay like this…live with this….with you” Yukie mumbled his voice still quite intoxicated as he soaked in every gentle touch and brush from Kai’s fingers at times leaning into it as the man deep down inside was longing for such a life but well like hell would he ever admit it. “I’m sorry for being so cold and mean….” Yukie mumbled as he knew deep inside what Kai needed in his life was a real partner, someone to be home with him, someone who was better for him and Yukie was taking that away selfishly.

As Yukie sat in silence just listening to the water and soaking up the soft caresses to his body he wondered just what to do….a part of him wanting to see what it would be like staying in one place for a while, of staying with Kai of being selfish and giving it a chance be dammned the consequences.

Yukie though had never stayed anywhere for more than a few days having never had a permanent home the closest place he had gotten a home setup was going back to his bosses house. Even then though with his contract changing over to the new “boss”, Yukie was stuck under his control until Yukie paid off his old bosses gambling debt.

He found his current home with his new boss short lived. He could honestly though it out stay with his new boss…but he treated him just as bad as tonight’s client did. And after he had put his hands on a high end client with no money to show for it…the man might beat him to death.

Yukie was truely stuck on what to do. Watching Kai work so gently on him Yukie could only sigh as he looked at the man before him a deep loneliness filling his heart at the realization of what he had to do next to keep from everything hurting even more, to keep from falling for the small bit of kindness in his world.

“Do you have something I can wear for work tonight…I’m….going to see if I can find some clients…” Yukie mumbled his voice so broken as he spoke almost afraid to go out and work. Yukie knew that if he didn’t leave now he would give in to the thought of being loved by Kai…a possible chance at a future that wouldn’t work in his mind. Kai would eventually see him for what he really was…just a whore and in the end like all the others he would leave him.

" I have a car... I'll take you home..."

Haru was a little surprised by the fact the man had a car so close by and without hesitation followed him off to his car. Standing in front of the black car Haru raised a brow but thought nothing much of it assuming the man worked a higher end business job. As the door was opened for him Haru got in not even second guessing if it was a good idea since he wanted to know what had happened.

Once inside Haru buckled his seatbelt and sat quietly beside the strange man just watching out the windows as they drove feeling a bit more comfortable by the soft music as he visibly relaxed.

4 hours ago, Sosuke0549 said:

" Your drink was spiked, thats the only reason I knocked that prick out...your too damn trusting. Especially in the Red Light district. "

“…like…spike with drugs?” Haru asked a touch confused as why the kind man would have gone to such lengths to administer medicine to him. Listening to the stranger scold him Haru frowned a little as he looked at his hands.

”for the record…it’s a bit overkill to hit someone over adding medicine to drinks…and…what is the red light district?” Haru asked his voice showing he was purely curious as he looked at the man watching him for a moment before explaining more.

“I was just given an address and a time to meet my boss, the man wanted to help and I guess I looked tiered so he was helping me with a medicated drink.” Haru explained not seeing that there was any evil intent since his co workers often made him medicated drinks to help him when he was feeling sick.

”oh….oh shit…I need to message my boss…he wanted to celebrate my apprenticeship ending tonight. He reserved a party room.” Haru stated as he didn’t even catch on to what type of party room he would have been dragged to tonight. “I guess he’s going to be pretty mad I didn’t meet him at the red dragon lounge, he paid for it in advance and I couldn’t exactly say no. I’ll just tell him I’m running a bit late but I can stay much later now” Haru admitted as he clearly planned on heading back to meet up with his co workers. Checking his phone Haru frowned ans he realized he had accidentally set it to do not disturb while he slept explaining now the sudden dings of messages flooding in as his phone reconnected. Looking at the texts his boss was quite upset and angry that Haru hadn’t made it yet and was furious when Haru said something came up and he would be running late. 

“Oh, I should give you my address.” Haru mumbled as he was focused on texting and read off his home address to the man. “By the way, my name is Haru.” Haru stated still stuck in his phone where any sane person wouldn’t have even left the area with a stranger knowing it would mean death. Haru seemed unusually comfortable being alone with a stranger, in a way that most people would be concerned with the fact that he was living on his own and hadn’t met his demise.

[Sosuke0549]

Kai smiled a little hearing Yukie tell him that he didnt need to ask to touch him. It meant he was getting a little closer to him.

Kai paused, hearing Yukie say he wished he could live here. With him. He had mumbled the words but even so...he heard them.

He smiled at him. "Then why don't you..." He asked, titling his head to the side. "I wouldn't mind... I'd actually...perfer it..." He said softly.

[  “I’m sorry for being so cold and mean….” ]

Kai sighed softly. He rested on the edge of the tub, gazing at Yukie with gentle and kind eyes.
"Hahaha...Its ok...deep down...I know you don't mean it..."

Just as he finished bathing Yue, he turned to him looking rather empty. It was like he suddenly became a different person.

[ “Do you have something I can wear for work tonight…I’m….going to see if I can find some clients…” ]

Kai stared at Yukie is disbelief. For a brief moment he thought he had taken a few steps forward...only to take 100 steps back. It was like their previous conversation never happened. It was as if Yukie wanted to shatter any and all hope he had. And he did...in just one sentence.

( I don't...get you...)

He tensed hearing the kettle scream from the kitchen. He had forgotten about it. " Excuse me."
He wasn't smiling anymore...it disappeared the moment Yue told him he was going out to find clients. He quickly left the bathroom to remove the kettle from the stove. He turned off the heat, and hung his head over the sink. He didn't want to go back in there. He was angery...hurt...confused and frustrated.

This couldn't be what Yukie wanted, he basically told him he was being forced to be an escort. So of course making money was probably his only priority. Was he in debt? Under someones thumb?

( Damn it...)

He headed to his room and quickly reached under his bed, pulling out a old metal tool box. He hastly unlocked it, putting in the 4 digit code.

What was inside? Money...lots and lots of money. He was saving to open up his own auto shop someday...but right now...Yukie needed help. He counted out 2,000 dollars, wrapping the bills in a tight ball with a rubber band and quickly shut the box, putting it back under his bed.

When Kai returned to the bathroom, 15 minutes had passed, and Yue must of gotten tired of waiting because he was already out of the tub, drying off. Kai couldn't even look him in the eyes. He placed a black shirt and some boxers on the sink, the shirt fit him, but would most likely look big on Yue, given his small frame. On top of the clothes, he placed the wad money.

"Bed is yours...night."

That was all he said, he left again, and walked over to the living room couch. He turned his back to the world, facing the cushions. He had already prepared the couch for himself, resting his head on a small pillow and pulling a red blanket over him.

He wasn't hungry anymore. He wasn’t even sleepy. He just couldn't face Yue anymore. He needed to process everything that happened.

And he wasnt about to pay Yukie to sleep with him, it was clear that he didnt want too after he said it once as a joke. It didn't make sense to him...he'd rather sleep with strangers who treat him like that...then be with him? Was dating a foreign concept to him? Did he not...belive in love?

If Yukie went out still, dispite the money he just gave him...it would break his heart. He gave him the money...so he'd stay...because in all reality Yukie was in no shape to go out...Kai cared about him.

**************************************
 
  [ “…like…spike with drugs?”]

Sho frowned, leaning back in his seat.
" What else."

[ ”for the record…it’s a bit overkill to hit someone over adding medicine to drinks…and…what is the red light district?” ]

Sho clenched the steering wheel.
" Are you stupid?"
He asked genuinely.

" Aren't you suppose to be a wanna be doctor? Medicine? He probably roffied your drink so he could take advantage of you."

[ “I was just given an address and a time to meet my boss, the man wanted to help and I guess I looked tiered so he was helping me with a medicated drink.” ]

" Got it...your stupid. "


[ ”oh….oh shit…I need to message my boss…he wanted to celebrate my apprenticeship ending tonight. He reserved a party room.” ]

" In the Red Light District? Yeah...your not going."

[ “I guess he’s going to be pretty mad I didn’t meet him at the red dragon lounge, he paid for it in advance and I couldn’t exactly say no. I’ll just tell him I’m running a bit late but I can stay much later now” ]


Sho groaned in irritation, running a hand through his hair. He was growing more and more frustrated with Haruhi...this was the guy Sett use to have a thing for?  ( Myabe the car accident fucked with his brain...)

" Let me guess...your boss has a thing for you."

He glanced over at the red head, he was stuck on his phone as it went off multiple times.

[ “Oh, I should give you my address.” ]

Sho rolled his eyes, but the action wouldnt be seen thanks to his shades. He pretended to listen to the boys directions, and then...he simply introduced himself as Haru. ( How the hell was this kid ever involved with Sett...)

Sho reached over his seat and snatched Haruhi's phone out of his hand.

"If you go back...I can practically guarantee that your boss will make a move on you. The Red Light District is where prostitution, gambling, and drugs run rampid... and since you lack common sense...I suggest you never go back there again."

"Bed is yours...night."

 Looking at the money and the clothes Yukie sat on the bed his stomach twisted as he tried to wrap his head around everything. …this amount…it was enough.

It was what he owed.

He would be able to pay back the debt to the current client he didn’t payment from…and then he would be more free to be hired on instead of forced. Staring at the money in his hands Yukie was terrified. All he had known was being an escort, doing as his boss said. Would he even be able to leave? Looking at the clothes Yukie put them on finding the size bothersome…but they were Kai’s and well…Yukie couldn’t lie and say he didn’t like wearing Kai’s clothes.

Letting out a deep sigh Yukie got up and grabbed his shoes and slipped them on ignoring the wetness of his shoes as he walked out of the room his shoes clacking against the floor. Looking at Kai Yukie sat down carefully on the edge of the couch the money still in hand as he set it on the table.

”…I…want to stay here for the night….maybe…if you could use a roommate…I could get this place at least looking better...clean and cook and stuff…maybe…come back here at night.” Yukie asked softly as he didn’t know how to ask to stay with Kai to try and change his life or at least try and live something more safe than what he was doing. Hell in his mind he knew the second he pissed off Kai the man would throw him out just like all the others once his infatuation wore off.

Living somewhere permanent was such foreign idea to Yukie, he was use to hopping from client to client for meals and a place to sleep. Sitting on the couch Yukie was unable to look towards Kai,  just looking at his hands and then at the money he had taken the damn money that sat on the table in front of him as he let out a sigh. 

“….I…can’t promise I won’t still need to work a bit….to get stable….I-I don’t know…..” Yukie tried to explained his voice full of so much anger and confusion proving how much he hated explaining about this and how hard he struggled opening up to Kai about such personal things.

" Got it...your stupid. "

“I’m not stupid. I’ve had many drinks with additives in them. Not everyone in the world is out to get me.” Haru snapped as he huffed and glared at the man not liking being treated like he didn’t know what he was doing.

11 hours ago, Sosuke0549 said:

“In the Red Light District? Yeah...your not going."

“You have no say in where I go or what I do!” Haruhi added with a frown as he stared at his phone the name of the place started to sink in Haruhi was not completely oblivious to what the man was saying, he was just sheltered in a way. Haruhi had heard the others he worked with talk about the red district. The stories he had heard were rather….bold to say the least in public, they were not your typical stories of romance. Haruhi only made the connection because he had overheard of stories of a red light district from co workers late at night while studying.

11 hours ago, Sosuke0549 said:

" Let me guess...your boss has a thing for you."

“…I wasn’t going with my boss, I was meeting up with others that I study with. I can’t help he was going to be there. I have no desire to look for a relationship, not like they would last more than a few weeks.” Haru mumbled as he huffed the lack of dating being a sore spot and the fact he was well aware of how creepy his boss was.

“Not that it’s your concern but I wanted to be introduced to another doctor…he works in mountain herbal medicine…his waiting list is long if I went with my boss he was going to introduce me to him they are old friends. Even if they made an advance who’s to say I would have turned anyone I was with down…wouldn’t be the worst place to be taken home from for the night….” Haruhi stated not seeing the red flags of going off with two men like his boss or anyone from that seedy part of town. Continuing to text his boss Haruhi was only stopped as he felt the phone ripped from his hands the redhead snapping to look at the stranger as he spoke.

I don’t lack common sense….I was fine if I felt off I could have call someone to come get me.” Haruhi pointed out as he looked away from the man glancing at the car door his hand moving to the handle and for a second he was wondering if he should just jump out.

It wouldn’t have been the first time he had jumped from a moving car. He had successfully jumped out with only a bit of road rash and a broken wrist when his parents had taken him back home from the hospital….though back then he was more of thinking of jumping as a way of ending it all than escaping. His parents after that they had adjusted the locks to keep him from ever trying such a stunt in the car again…they made all the adjustments to the house to make sure he was safe as their control tightened.

Haruhi felt a sudden rush of adrenaline as he was feeling trapped much like all of the forced car rides before the accident. Haruhi….He felt the sudden unexplainable urge of needing to escape at any cost.

Weighing his options on jumping out the car door Haru knew his choice and plan was seeming pretty solid in his mind, damned be the wounds…as he quietly unbuckled his seatbelt.

His plan was simple jump out, find a way home…or somehow finding a way to call his boss. Problem solved.

Kai wasn't asleep. But his eyes were closed. But when he heard the annoying slap of sandles approaching he opened his eyes slightly. It was Yue.

[ ”…I…want to stay here for the night….maybe…if you could use a roommate…I could get this place at least looking better...clean and cook and stuff…maybe…come back here at night.”]


"...sure."

He muttered. He already had this conversation with Yue before. Weather he actually followed through...would be a different story.

 
[ “….I…can’t promise I won’t still need to work a bit….to get stable….I-I don’t know…..” ]

" Just don't bring them here...the key under the mat is yours. Don't lose it. Its my only spare.."

His voice was a little cold. Perhaps it was Kai's way of protecting himself too. If Yukie was going to actually stay here, then he was happy. It ment that they could grow closer. Maybe he could figure out who Yukie boss was...and get him out of this mess.

Sho glanced over at Haru as he pleaded his case. Saying he wasn't stupid and having this naive belief that not everyone was out to get him. That he wasnt going to meet his boss but to meet up with some other classmates and make connections for himself, making it clear he wasn't looking for a relationship, but hinting at the fact that he secretly wanted one.

Sho listened as the red head expressed the willingness to be taken home and escorted.  Not caring who it might be or the fact he met them in the Red Light District. He sighed. How long would he be forced to baby sit this guy?

[ “I’m not one to judge how or where others hang out, and you shouldn’t either seeing as how you were wandering around the oh so sketchy bar you “saved” me from."]

"Pfffhahaha- " He laughed softly. He had a point.

[ " I don’t lack common sense….I was fine if I felt off I could have call someone to come get me.”]

"Sure..."

He turned the corner, at this point he was about four blocks from Haruhi's house.

" If you wanna get out of the car so badly, you can just say it."

He said sharply, as he suddenly pulled over, coming to a stop and flicking on his caution lights. He stared out the window in front of him, and pulled out a pack of cigarettes.

" If you wanna get out...then be my guest... if you wanna go back..then do whatever you want..."

He sighed, pulling out a single cigarette and placing it in between his lips.

" Babysitting was never in my job discrimination..."

He pulled out a lighter, it was black with a sliver serpent engraved into the metal. He flicked the lighter a few times before a small flame sparked to life. He quickly lit his cig and shut the lighter with a satisfying click, killing the flame in a instant.  " I bet you were a pain back in the day..." He muttered, rolling down his diver side window just a crank. He took a long and hard inhale of the poisonous stick, before blowing the chemicals out the window.

" If you think you can take care of yourself...then by all means...go... I only intervened because I didn't like what the guy was doing... I also wanted to avoid getting jumped by his friends...if I left you behind...who knows what would of happened. "

He was lying. His job was too look out for Haruhi...but he wouldn't very well admit that. He needed to distant himself. Sho was never suppose to intervene in his affairs...let alone be seen...he was going to get one hell of an ass chewing from Sett...and probably be replaced.

( I'll probably never see him again... As long as I've known Sett...he's never cared about anything...or anyone...so...I don't know what makes you so special...)

" Do your best to avoid people like me..." His tone, surprisingly sincere.

 “Alright, I can do that. No clients here and don’t lose the key.” Yukie replied as if proving he understood the rules. As Yukie stayed sitting on the edge of the couch the awkwardness was slowly filling the room making it rather uncomfortable for Yukie. Looking at Kai who had been giving him the cold shoulder, well it was nothing new but this time…it felt off…Yukie didn’t always want Kai feeling upset and angry at him.

”…I wouldn’t…hate sharing the bed if you wanted to join me.” Yukie stated so much unease and uncertainty showing in his voice as he offered the split bed to Kai. “The way I see it…long term neither one of us can keep sleeping on your tiny couch and a bunk bed sounds ridiculous. It would just be easier to share a bed. I mean if you’re fine with it that is…I could always find a futon mattress and sleep on the floor in here or in the bedroom if you don’t want to do that.” Yukie added awkwardly as he had never lived with anyone before so he didn’t know exactly what to do when it came to sleeping situations. With his clients he had always been on a couch once finished or wherever he could sleep if they allowed him to stay.  If the clients didn’t want him around then he would leave and sleep on the ride home or at his bosses brothel. If he was really lucky there were times where the client would leave and would give him the room till checkout the next morning.

“You have so much more to explain. You just show up out of nowhere and save me and now you say your babysitting me? Like is this a one time gig or have you been watching me for awhile? Hell who is paying you to even watch me.” Haru asked as he watched the man closer curious as to why he was “babysitting” him it seemed. Watching the lighter open and then close Haru raised a brow only to laugh at the next words that came out of the man’s mouth caught completely off guard.

Watching him blow the smoke out the window Haru reached over and gently took the cigarette from the man before bringing it to his lips and deeply inhaling.

“Mmh depends on what you consider a pain.” Haru said cheekily as he rolled down his own window and blew out the smoke before relaxing as he looked back over at the man listening to him speak as he held the smoke and stole another long drag before handing it back.

On 7/11/2025 at 5:44 AM, Sosuke0549 said:

Listening to the man Haru leaned towards how cracked window and let out his second puff of smoke before settling back down in his seat fully looking over at the stranger.

“….Thank you…for stepping in, I’m sorry…for getting so angry earlier. I’m not a fan of having people constantly step in and fix things. It happens a little lately for me well, it’s become quite a sore spot. I like feeling I can take care of myself. You’re right though if you wouldn’t have stepped in I guess he would have dragged me off if the drink was drugged. Or I could have gotten even more lost and got into worse trouble.” Haru stated as he wasn’t fully naive to danger he just liked to think the world wasn’t as bad as everyone said. Looking towards the front window Haru sighed deeply as he spoke again.

”I’m sorry I dragged you into my mess.” Haru admitted knowing at times he could be problematic to himself and those around him. As Haru sat in silence and watching quietly out the window for a moment he looked over at the man as he spoke again amused by the sudden sincerity in his voice.

“Ha! People like you? I’m sorry but I don’t know what kind of “people” you are.”  Haru stated with a slight angry huff as he rolled his eyes at the man finding his words ridiculous even if he meant well.

“You owe me at least your name, and a drink for my ruined night. In return….I’ll make sure to not immediately call the police or try to dig deeper into who your boss is to try and find what kinda creep has been watching me. Because if I don’t get some answers tonight I’ll have no choice but to relocate my whole life and I really don’t want to pack up my house and move to a small shitty apartment away from my school and work.” Haru bluntly said with a frown he could tell deep inside this man wasn’t an immediate threat to him and he was genuine with his warning. Not to mention that if he had really wanted to hurt Haru he would have done it earlier or now where there were no witnesses.

“Once you answer my questions…I can at least process who you are and all of this, “babysitting” stuff.…” Haru added as he moved to get more comfortable in his seat. “I’ll still take you home and bandage you up….Despite everything that’s happened tonight you got hurt because of me it’s only fair I at least help you to pay back your kindness.” Haru stated his voice a touch more gentle and sincere as he was a man of his word and well he wouldn’t just leave someone hurt especially someone who had gotten hurt protecting him. It went against all of his morals and medical training.

 “…I’ll also…answer anything you need…for your boss, it’s only fair since you’re answering questions for me.” Haru added as he looked away for a moment not liking his next words. “I’ll also make sure to behave and stay home for the night, just so you can take the night off and not worry anymore. Even if you’re suspicious as hell in following me around…I know you mean well and it’s not your fault you had to do this job, if you wanted to hurt me, or your boss wanted to hurt me you would have done it way before now.”
