Kyo scratched his head and stretched his arms. Then he yawned and threw himself on the couch.

“Finish recording?” Die asked with a smile

Kyo nodded

“Whose turn is it?”

“Kaoru’s doing remix”

It was Die’s turn to nod his head

“Die, are you not talking to Totchi?” Kyo suddenly popped up a question.

The red head blinked

“Why do you ask? What makes you think so?”

Kyo rolled his eyes, “Because you’re Not talking! It’s obvious!” he exclaimed, “Come on…you can’t act childish! What’s going on?”

Die bit his lip, and sighed aloud

“I called him a slut”

“WHAT?!!!!!!!!”

*

“Give it back to me!”

“Iie! It’s not yours!”

Kaoru gritted his teeth and tried to snatch the pen from Shinya’s hand but to no avail Shinya was faster. (kaoru kun must have pretty quick fingers eh? I mean…he plays guitar right? L7)

“This is so kawaii! Where do you get this from?” Shinya looked at the pen cutely, with the kawaii fluffy auburn colored feathers. Kaoru pouted considerably and sat down, sulkily replied, “From Die. His sister gave him five of those”

“Ma…I want this one, Sankyuu…” Shinya grinned and started doodling on a piece of paper.

“Shinya you spoilt brat!”

“I’m NOT!!! I always get whatever I want! I want this pen so I have it!” Shinya replied defensively

Kaoru rolled his eyes, “Brat”

“NOT!!!!”

Toshiya suddenly opened the door and rushed to Shinya, “Shinchan, do you have some money?”

Kaoru looked up

“I had to pay Kakechi some money but she has no change for me!” Toshiya explained briefly. Shinya sighed and took out his wallet, “No, I don’t have coins”

“Mou >< ”

“Totchi…”

Toshiya’s heart skipped a beat

“I have change, here. How much do you need?”

Toshiya took the money from Kaoru and smiled sweetly, “I’ll pay you back!”

“No! Don’t pay him back!” Shinya quickly spoke before Kaoru could say anything, “He’s rich enough” Kaoru glared and Shinya stuck his tongue out playfully. The violet head growled and got up.

“Gyah!!!” Shinya shouted as Kaoru tickled him

Toshiya laughed and rushed out the room.

*

“I can’t believe how selfish you are, Die” Kyo stood up, “You slept with him, and then you called him a slut?!”

“Kyo, calm down”

“NO! you must have hurt him so much! Do you have to do this?! Totchi already has so many turmoil in his mind, he doesn’t need this one!” Kyo yelled.

“Kyo! I was only…saying it!”

“Whatever! You’d better apologies!”

Die looked at kyo, “I will, I’m going to”

“Good!”

Die smiled at Kyo and patted his head roughly, ignoring the singer’s protests. But Die was so getting so rough that Kyo had to bite the red head’s finger

“ITAI!!!” Die yelped and Kyo laughed like a maniac.

“Kyo I have something to tell you!” Die suddenly exclaimed

The singer blinked, “Eh? All the sudden? Nani?” he stopped and sat down properly, looking at the older man. Die hesitated for a while. He bit his lip and looked nervous. Then he looked around, to make sure no one would be able to hear whatever he wanted to say. Kyo joined his eyebrows, “Why so secretive? What’s up?” said he.

“Kyo, promise me you won’t do anything to me…” Die whispered

“Yeah, yeah…whatever. Just tell me!” Kyo waved his hands impatiently

Die looked at Kyo concernedly and inched closer, his voice dropped

“I told Kaoru”

Kyo blinked his eyes once

*

“Okay, this is so cool! Next time, you have to tell me about this!!” Toshiya chirped with a huge grin plastered on his face. Kakechi chuckled and shook her head, “How did I know you collected those stuff? I have tons of them! I can even give them to you!” she shrugged. Toshiya shook his head, “Iie. Can’t do it. I have to pay you, or else I’ll feel very guilty” The woman raised an eyebrow and stared at Toshiya in mock disbelief

“Oh come on!” Toshiya rolled his eyes and she laughed

“Arigatou Kakechi san!” the young man bowed and the woman bowed back

Toshiya sighed and walked quickly to the rest room, where he could probably have some rest, or a nap, because he couldn’t really sleep well last night and after getting up so early to do morning recording… the first thing he wanted to do was…SLEEP. Now he’s done, so he deserved a nap. Toshiya brushed his hair and tidied his sweater and opened the door.

“Well, You Fucking Asshole!!!!”

Toshiya gasped

“Yamero!!! You don’t understand how I feel!!! You don’t understand it!!! He’s my GOOD FRIEND for God’s sake!!! I can’t do it!!!”

Toshiya’s heart thumped against his chest madly. It had been so long since he heard such big voices and big fight from Kyo and Die! He didn’t have to look; those voices had got to be Kyo and Die’s! To scared to walk in, or maybe he just didn’t want to be in the middle of that, Toshiya stood before the slightly opened door and tried to calm himself down.

“Oh! Good friend is it?! So are you saying that Toshiya isn’t your good friend?!!!!”

Toshiya widened his eyes

“Kyo, onegai! If you were in MY position-”

“If I was in YOUR position, I WOULDN’T HAVE SLEPT WITH TOSHIYA in the first place!!!”

Toshiya leaned against the frame, …why was his name mentioned?! What was it about sleeping with him?!!

“Oh come on Kyo!! I was curious! I was too eager to do it, than to think about it!! You should know how that feels!!! It was my first time!!!”

“But you don’t have to do it!!!”

“Kyo!!!”

Toshiya joined his eyebrows

“What did you tell him? Huh? What did you tell him?!!! Oh Kaoru, I’m so SORRY but there’s something I HAVE to tell you? Yeah, so FEW WEEKS AGO I FUCK YOUR TOTCHI!!! You okay with that? Huh? So he’s pretty good, hm, so that’s how you felt eh? Yeah…see…IF YOU CAN DO IT, I CAN TOO!!!”

Toshiya lost his breath

What?

What was going on? Toshiya’s hands shook so much that he accidentally moved the door open. And he could see Kyo, and Die, in the room

Die was sitting down, hands covering his face, and red. All red, anger, sadness…everything

Kyo was standing up right in front of Die, pissed, anger shown on his face, forming an aura

But what was it about…again?

Toshiya couldn’t quite catch

“Die” Kyo’s voice was so deep and calm as he started.

The red head looked up

“Why did you have to tell Kaoru. That you. Slept. With Toshiya?”

Toshiya parted his lips…in surprise

What?

Kaoru knew?

“Because Kaoru is my good friend, he’s been so nice to me…” Die replied vaguely

“Let me ask you another question then. Toshiya doesn’t treat you nice?” Kyo’s voice was still calm, and deep.

Die sighed and shook his head, “I don’t know, no. I don’t know…because, I just felt so upset about the whole thing! That’s why I called Toshiya a slut! I mean, I was so confused! I was thinking about how you slept with Kaoru, and I slept with Kaoru, and Toshiya slept with Kaoru…I was so confused!!!” the red head muttered

What?

…

“Die…”

“No! I know I owe Toshiya an apology. But right now, I feel better after telling Kaoru! I feel so much better!”

“OH! So you only care about yourself?” Kyo’s voice turned, somehow, sarcastic.

Die snapped his head up, “NO!”

“YES!!! DIE! YOU’VE JUST RUINED THEIR RELATIONSHIP!!!”

Toshiya shut his eyes, taking a deep breath

Die got up

“Relationship!!!! Kyo! As far as I know, WHAT relationship!!! KAORU AND TOSHIYA AIN’T GOT ANY RELATIONSHIP!! We both know that!!!”

“Die!”

“I’m so sick of you yelling at me Kyo! Maybe it’s a big mistake to sleep with Toshiya but you MUST remember YOU suggested it!!!”

“Oh so you blame everything on me?!”

“No! I didn’t say that! Just…Kaoru and Toshiya have no relationship! They fuck with each other, fuck around, there’s no love! As long as they want sex, they need sex, they will look for each other and that’s It!!!”

Kyo snorted, “Is that why you called Toshiya a slut?”

Toshiya bit his lip hard

“Cuz he’s so cheap…Kaoru’s toy? Your toy?”

Die growled, “NO!!!”

Toshiya’s eyes twitched and he just couldn’t hear no more. So he backed away few steps and walked his way to the bathroom, with right hand clutching his sweater and left hand covering his mouth

He thought he was going to throw up

*

Kyo sighed and crouched down on the floor, right in front of Die. The red head’s eyes wet, his lips trembled. Kyo studied his face and bit his own lip.

“Kyo, Kyo…you just don’t know how I feel! Kyo, I’m so scared! I’m so confused! I don’t…” Die stopped, closing his eyes, trying to hold his emotion, “I don’t want to ruin anything! But at the same time, I can’t just keep quiet whenever Kaoru was being sweet to me! It’s Kaoru and Die! Kaoru and Die we ‘re the old ones, the guitarists, it’s just the bond between us!” the red head sighed and looked up. Then he smiled bitterly

“But I guess I fucked it all up!”

Kyo sighed, paused and placed his hands on Die’s arms

“Die, I’m sorry…” Kyo whispered

The red head shook his head, “Don’t be”

Kyo took a deep breath and looked into Die’s eyes

“Toshiya is falling in love…”

Die widened his eyes

“Nani?”

Kyo shut his eyes and spoke, “I don’t know, I’m not sure but I could see it coming”

The red head looked down

“But now, he has no more chance”

Die moved his arms and covered his face with his palms, “Great…very great…” he whispered frantically.

“That’s what I’m worry about. I’ve been waiting so long for them…but…now, maybe…it will never happen” Kyo whispered back

Die looked up, and looked at Kyo

“Kyo, you know what…”

“What?”

“I didn’t tell Kaoru who the person was. But Kaoru told me he already knew”

Kyo widened his eyes

“He…could tell from the way I was so nervous. He…he thought about it, he expected it…” Die stressed the word ‘expected’ and looked at Kyo

The singer shook his head

“I don’t know, Die…I don’t know…”
