BLURRY EYES

�Hey, what�s with the two of you?� Shinji asked the two boys who were leaning against the car. They didn�t answer, they just looked at opposite directions.

�Fine� I�ll drive this time.� He took the keys from Sakuya and got behind the wheels.

�Fujima� Fujima� Earth of Fujima!!� Maki pushed him a little to get him out of his dazed mode.

�Where were you?� Sendoh asked. This is totally not Fujima. Someone of this caliber should not be dazing around like this.

�Oh� nothing.� beaming like a child who just received a whole bag of candies.

�Yea right, as if we didn�t notice the way you looked at Shinobu Umeda. It was like your eyes were gonna pop out any moment.� Sendoh laughed looking at Fujima�s rosy cheeks the moment he mentioned Shinobu�s name.

�Speak for yourself, Sendoh-san. The youngest one had the face of a red tomato when you gave your all mighty, super Sendoh smile.� Maki chuckled at the same time defending his shorter friend.

�He was, wasn�t he.� he could only smile, remembering Sakuya�s face. He was rather cute� sigh�

�Hey! How bout we drop by their house tomorrow, to return their change?� Sendoh announced his not so brilliant plan to the other two captains.

Shinji was lying on his bed, recuperating. At least now he knows the feeling of being taken. Maybe he�ll be a little bit gentle with his brothers or anyone else for that matter. Then again, maybe not. He was just about to fall asleep when he heard his name being screamed.

�Shinji-aniki!!!!� Sakuya burst though the doors and sank on the black couch in his brother�s room. He took a moment to take deep breaths as if he was out of it.

�What is it?� Shinji asked, staring at the ceiling.

Sakuya wanted his all and undivided attention. So he climbed on the bed and on top of his brother. He gazed into Shinji�s dark brown eyes and flicked the short but soft brown hair. 'Oh no. Not now. I�ve not fully recovered.' Shinji though to himself. This could only mean one thing. Either his brother wants to do it, or wants something that he can�t get by himself.

Sakuya�s hands went under his brother�s white sleeveless t-shirt while Shinji had his hands on his brother�s fleshy behind. Sakuya took the white t-shirt off and rested himself on his aniki�s chest. He played with his brother�s nipple and listened to the throbbing of heart. Shinji had his hands under Sakuya�s boxers, stroking the boy�s rear and poking Sakuya's entrance.

�I heard Black Moon�s coming to town.� Sakuya finally spoke. Shinji froze. His hands stopped moving. Sakuya could have sworn that his brother�s heart skipped a beat.

�Could you get the tickets and backstage passes for me?� Sakuya snuggled closer to a now, ice-sculpture of Shinji Umeda.

�Please Shinji-aniki. I�ll do anything if you could get me the tickets.� begged.

Shinji kept staring at the ceiling, like he was poisoned. Actually he was, Sakuya poisoned him by saying Black Moon. He though he would never hear about that band again. Guess he was wrong.

�I�ll think about it.� Shinji said in a cold, emotionless voice. He turned he face away so Sakuya won�t be able to read him.

Sakuya sort of got the hint. He knew he shouldn�t have but he desperately wanted to watch Black Moon perform again. He smiled to his brother although Shinji wasn�t looking, whispered a thank you and closed the door gentle behind him.

�This is the Umeda�s house? Oh my! Do they get lost?� Both Maki and Fujima were astonishment by the size of the house. They both knew Sendoh had the biggest house among the other players but this was just huge. Maybe it has its own zip code?

Sendoh pressed the intercom and the butler answered. He introduced himself and explained that he was friends of the Umeda brothers. Initially the butler didn�t believe them, since someone did try to kidnap the brothers in Tokyo, but after checking with Shinji-sama, he let them in.

�Shinji-sama will be right down.� the butler left them in the so-called living room after serving them some fresh brewed tea.

True to the butler�s words, Shinji came almost immediately and he was most definitely not waddling like he was yesterday which only brought speculations from the three guests.

�Can I help you with something? You came all the way here.� Shinji slumped on one of the coach and stared at Maki. He had a black t-shirt on, rather tight but loose at the same time. Showing the frame of his body nicely. He also had a faded pair of dark colored jeans fitted to those nice pair of calves. Maki reminded him of someone. Although they didn�t look much alike, Shinji was still reminded of the certain someone.

�We just came to return you the money you left at the caf� yesterday.� Sendoh said stuffing his hands in his back pocket and took out some hundred dollar bills. He then placed them at the coffee table in front of him.

Shinji just looked the money and thanked Sendoh. Sakuya came to the living area, shortly after. �Shinji-aniki. I heard we have guests?�

His eyes set upon the three farmiliar face and redden the moment he saw Sendoh. There he was again, beaming. Only now, Sendoh was in his territory.

�Oh its you!� Sakuya said like it wasn�t such a big deal but Sendoh knew otherwise. Sakuya sat beside his brother and tried his best not to look at Sendoh but he couldn�t help it, his eyes just won�t listen to him and they kept returning to the spiky haired boy.

�Hey, did you know Black Moon�s coming to Kanagawa next week?� Maki asked trying to break the uncomfortable silence that was surged the area.

�Yea, I�m asking Shinji-aniki to get tickets for me.� Sakuya said proudly. At least now he knew someone shared the same interest. �Say, would you like to join us?�

Shinji cringed upon hearing Black Moon again. The more he tried to run from that band, the more the name came up and he knew Sakuya was not going to let him escape until he agreed to get the tickets.

�Sure why not.� Fujima answered straight away without asking Sendoh or Maki.

�I�ll get the tickets then.� Shinji left the area to make some calls. Actually he just wanted to get away.

�Ne, Sakuya. Do you know where�s Shinji�s aniki?� Shinobu came down the stairs and to his horror, he saw his nightmare in front of him. Fujima Kenji. He froze at the spot, didn�t know what to do next. Continue down or run the hell away from him. He wanted to run but his legs went down instead. He greeted his guest and parked himself next to Sakuya.

�Nobu-aniki. Shinji-aniki agreed to get tickets to watch Black Moon for us! And they are coming with us.� Sakuya was so darn excited it was like he was bouncing around the living room.

�We�re gonna met Riki? Shinji-aniki is ok with that?� Shinobu asked Sakuya. The whole family knew how Riki, the lead singer of Black Moon had dumped Shinji. After the incident, the brothers rarely talked about Riki in order not to hurt their brother.  Maybe it was too hard for him to talk about it. But going to watch Black Moon? Maybe his brother had overcome the heart break and ready to move on?

�You know Riki Mink?� Maki asked in disbelief.

�Yea, he�s Shinji-aniki�s ex-boyfriend.�
