Yasuda woke up as he felt something moved in his arm. The last thing he remembered was sitting on the patio, crying his heart out to Shibutani. His cheeks gradually warms a little as he blushed. Slowly he opened his eyes adjusting to the brightness. The little being in his arms was sleeping so soundly, coiling cozily against him. The gentle steady breath of the man on his other side blew it’s warmth against his neck and his hand coiled around his waist.

“Are you awake?” Shibutani whispered to his ears. His warm breath tickles yet Yasuda likes it. He was quick to close back his eyes before Shibutani could caught him awake. Shibutani sighed softly. “I just wish you could tell me everything. You’d let me share the pain you are bearing.” He said quietly, tightening his embrace.

“I will tell you when the time comes.” Yasuda replied quietly.

Shibutani quickly scrambled up feeling a little embarrassed letting his feeling out like that. “I thought you were still asleep.” He said in a hush hush voice. Yasuda’s body trembled with laughter yet he made no sound.

“Atashi mo. I want to know too.” Catherine said groggily as she looked up smiling at Yasuda. Gently the man peck her forehead lovingly. “Nii-chan, please don’t be sad anymore okay.” she said embracing the man tightly, until Yasuda could feel her heart beating against his. “My heart will never stop beating as long as you would not let it.” she whispered only for Yasuda’s ears to hear.

Shibutani smiled at the two of them softly. “Alright daddy. Have your own kid already.” He teased as a pillow flew in his direction. Catherine just giggled.

“Urusai na, ossan. I can’t get married before you though. You’re older, no?” Yasuda replied a little annoyed by the comment. It was not that he did not want to settle down, he just could not find the time to have a proper relationship. Catherine just smiled at them slyly. She was always the one with the weird ideas and spurting out at the utmost improper time. At times she was almost like a mix of Yasuda, Okura and Nishikido at the same time. “You look like you have something to say.” Yasuda said to the girl who was now sitting beside him.

Catherine just shook her head. “Nande mo nai.” she replied with the same sly tone and smile. Yasuda pouts a little pulling her towards him. “Nii-chan.” she groaned. His fingers gently working his way to her waist tickling her yet careful not to hit her operationed areas. “Baru. Baru-niichan. Onegai.”She spoke through her giggles that were turning into laughter. But she knew until she say what was on her mind there was no way she was going to get out of the situation.

Instead of stopping Yasuda, Shibutani joined in tickling the little girl. The little girl’s pale skin blushed pink with laughter. After a while, she finally gave up. “What was it that you were thinking?” Yasuda said questioning her.

Still smiling from the tickles and the thought Catherine wanted laugh buy she held herself back. “Nii-chan and Baru-niichan are already like my mommy and daddy. You two should just marry each other.” She splurted out. Hearing that Yasuda buried his face in the pillow.

It was that obvious that he was getting to close with Shibutani that even a ten year old can see. Shibutani just laughed. He had heard that from the members before. At least they did not say he was the girl.

Their laughter was interrupted with a knock on the door as Yasuda’s elder sister peeked in. “Urusai yo minna. Shota. Your niece is still sleeping upstairs. And stop torturing the little girl so much.” she scolded.

Although only being two years older than Yasuda, he never defy her not even once. Unless he knew that what she said was really bad or wrong. After the death of his mother, when he was much younger, his sister had been the one taking care of him along with his grandmother. For the first few years his father was like a living corpse. Then he turned into a workaholic and not once cared about them anymore. Gradually the workaholic became an alcoholic and slowly withered away.

Nishikido just gazed upon the younger boy who was still sleeping peacefully. The last time he saw them, they were like the perfect couple. He was not sure what went wrong. He was also sure not to ask him anyways. Although for Tegoshi to call him and cry as he did the day before was really a rare one for him. He must have been really hurt by either Yamashita’s word or his action. Being the leader, sometimes Yamashita tend to be a little bit bossy but he is a good leader.

“Gomen ne Ryo.” Tegoshi said waking up. “I’m always a problem to you and Pi. ” he spoke softly.

Nishikido just shook his head. “It’s fine.” He replied. He is known to be a man of very few words when he is with NewS and a man of many ideas when he was with his kansai boys.

Tegoshi just smiled. He knew Nishikido is not the kind to asked about what happened and weather you would want to talk it over with him. He was more of the kind that let everyone else walk at their own pace. Giving them room to breathe. “Do you think of me as a spoilt rich brat, Ryo?” Tegoshi questioned.

Nishikido did not feel as if he needed to answer the question. He just shrugged in reply. Tegoshi just nodded.

“Within the Eito members you all know about each other’s past like you know your own past don’t you?” Tegoshi questioned. Nishikido put the book he was pretending to read down and sat nearer to Tegoshi.

“We practically grew up together. We were each other past. You can’t compare them to us, Yuya. I made it clear about it before didn’t I?” Nishikido replied. He knew he shared more about his personal life with the kansai boys more than his NewS members.

Tegoshi nodded. “I know.” he said quietly. “But you at least knew I was adopted right?” He questioned.

Nishikido sighed. “Look, adopted or not, you still have parents who love you, Yuya. I know you miss your brother. But look at yourself now. Look at what you have achieved. If, hypothetically if the accident did not happen, would you have choose this path of life?” Nishikido questioned. “We both know Pi speaks with his emotion and not his head most of the time. He might just have forgotten about that little detail.”

*******

Yamashita was so angry with himself for being so cruel to Tegoshi before. Since he disappeared, Tegoshi would not received any calls or texts from him. He wondered how could he forget the most important information about the most special person to him. It was Uchi who reminded him about Tegoshi’s painful past.

“Everyone has their own secret and painful experiences Pi. Sometimes you need to calm down a little. Or else just look at me. Look at where I am now. Not that I’m complaining. But I really missed being with you guys. It’s different not being able to share your joy with other members you know.” Uchi said to him the night before.

“It’s like I lost a part of my family. For two years it felt like I’m an unwanted orphan.” the words played in Yamashita’s head over and over like a broken record.
