Takeo - Live from somewhere out there, it's part three!
Kento - You've listened to a lot of music today, any wedding inspirations.
Takeo - Yes. A very good friend of mine, Adrienne, has informed me that the "real" Touma is antisocial, Seiji was raised by women and of course, Shin is, err, can be bitchy. I like this a lot; this changes the whole view on you and Touma's relationship. I did of course get you guys' profiles from the misinformed world of Mary Sue fics, so I shall be making changes. We're heading into angst, maybe lemon, certainly lime. I don't own YST, don't sue and please comments are appreciated.

INOCHI & GI: Goodbye Tomorrow

Kento walked into his apartment, tired but thankful that work was over. His eyes fell on his answering machine, the tiny red light indicating that once again, he was being summoned. He hit the play button as he went into the kitchen to get a glass of water, the clear cold liquid sure to quench his thirst.

Love serenade,
Soothe me with the morning sun.
Help me find someone,
Peaceful and non-judgemental.
Holdin' me back,
And make me feel whole with life.
And stay the same.
Life.
Without the pain

" Hi Kento, it's me, Seiji. I haven't seen you in a while... you used to come by the dojo every now and then. Are you ok? Call back soon ok? Bye."The message ended, Seiji's soft voice echoing in Kento's ears.

"Okay Seiji, my life's been crazy huh" Kento said, biting his lip. The second message began to play.

Why do we dream in metaphors
Try to hold on to something we couldn't understand.
Couldn't understand.
And why do we argue loudly?
When peace is our one salvation.
I couldn't understand
Couldn't understand
Yeah
Someone lost their faith in, seeking God so they,
Turn to the needle, back to the cradle. They were...
Rocking it all too long.
Tell me what's going on with your life.
Has it stayed the same?

" Kento, it's me again. Touma's... I found Touma at a bar this evening; he's so out of it. Please Kento, just come down here, at least, he isn't well." Seiji's pleading voice said, alerting Kento to his friend's distress.

"I'll be over soon" Kento said to no one in particular as he grabbed his keys and headed out the door.

The drive to Seiji's was quick, allowing Kento to run things through his mind. He wasn't entirely surprised that Touma had turned up at a bar.He hasn't changed, just the same quiet man, with no one he trusts. I thought that he was my salvation, but once again, I fell, fell into another game. Touma was always in control, even I saw that. I just wanted him out of his shell so that he could have fun, and maybe even fall in love, but it's not that way is it? Kento stopped his thoughts from wandering as he reached Seiji's dojo. He went in, first of all taking off his shoes.

"I'm glad that you came Shu-kun." Came Seiji's voice from behind Kento, violet eyes unsettled.

" I just got home. Is Touma all right?" Kento asked, running a hand through blue smoked hair. Seiji smiled.

" Yes, he is. I gave him some herbal tea. Please, sit down." Seiji said, gesturing to the table before Kento. Kento nodded and sat, legs curled up under him. They drank their tea in silence, Kento's mind slightly at ease.

"Shuu, I'm glad that you finally came to see me. I've been getting help with my control issues from a therapist for about two years. She believes that I've made a lot of progress ." Seiji said, eyes downcast, his golden hair shielding his eyes.

" That's a great thing Sei-kun. nd even though living up here is a bit secluded, it's great that you didn't withdraw from the world. I should have come earlier to see how you were getting along but I was bogged down with work."Kento said with a sigh.

"You, concerned about work? Being an adult has brought the best in of you." Seiji said as he got up from his seat and raised Kento's eyes to his level, slender fingers slowly caressing slender caramel skin. Kento blushed, confusion gripping his heart and mind. Seiji smiled, almost wistfully.

" Is this the other reason why you haven't come to see me, Shu-chan?" Seiji asked, kneeling before Kento, and his pressed heated lips on Kento's, his fingers playing with soft blue smoked hair. Kento's cobalt eyes quietly assessed the situation. He knew that coming to see Seiji would always leave him confused. Over the years, he had begun to fall for the blonde trooper, but was too afraid to admit anything, let alone destroy their healing friendship.

"Hai." Kento replied, lowering his eyes from Seiji's, discomfort reigning over his emotions.

" So, you wouldn't have come here if Touma wasn't here?" Seiji asked.

Why do we dream in metaphors?
Try to hold on to something we couldn't understand.
Couldn't understand.
Tell me why must we argue loudly? When peace is our one,
Salvation. I couldn't understand,
Couldn't understand
Yeah
Life will always stay the same
Life stay the same
Life will ease your pain
life without no,pain or shame

Kento rested his head against Seiji's chest, struggling to hold in his feelings. His feelings always had a way of leading him astray. That night when he hit Seiji, to stop all this pain, felt by all the troopers, his feelings were misplaced, probably wrong. Kento had, picked up Touma's habit of not socializing to come up with an answer to end *his * pain, his sorrows and it had come full circle to Seiji. He just couldn't understand why Touma said that he didn't love him only after a week of them being together. He tried to understand, but it didn't click. 4 whole years had passed since he saw Touma, only 2 since he had seen Seiji, Ryo and Shin were off some where in America doing God knew what.

Seiji sighed, resting his chin in Kento's hair. Kento was so depressed when Touma left him, he actually stopped eating and that really worried him. He knew that he loved Kento, with every ounce of his soul. Maybe asking Kento to come over was a mistake, especially since he ha sto see Touma again after all this time.

"I only came because you called. Touma should have nothing to do with this. I can only care for him as a friend." Kento said, heaving in relief, his thought finally reaching a decision.

"Good. That is what would be best for all of us. And what about us? I am always true to myself Shu-chan, I've told you many times how I feel, waiting for you to at least give me a straight answer." Seiji said, his eyes never leaving the smoldering blue ones beneath him.

"Ai shiteru Seiji-chan. That's what you want to hear, isn't it? How will I know if you'll hurt me like Touma did? How do I know anything? But here I am, risking my heart gain." Kento said. Seiji smiled wistfully. I won't jurt you Shuu. I'll never hurt you.

My beautiful Shuu, age never made you wiser, just stronger. Our yoroi must have something to do with all this. I have grown wiser and I intend to treasure every moment that I spend with you." Seiji said, lips curled in a genuine smile, a hearty chuckle escaping from Kento's lips. Seiji pulled Kento into his embrace, letting his fingers knead the muscles in Kento's back. Kento relaxed back into Seiji's chest, his body warming up to Seiji's caress.

" I'm definitely going to take good care of you. You're too stressed out." Seiji said as he pressed a kiss to Kento's forehead, blue smoked hair tickling his lips. Kento laughed again, and caught one of Seiji's hands, placing soft kisses on his fingers, the pale skin smooth to his touch.

" Should we go and check on Touma?" Seiji suggested, fingers still locked with Kento's own.

"Hai, he *is* ok right?" Kento asked as he and Seiji entered the room to find Touma deep in sleep on a futon.

" He'll be okay. He's just sleepong off the effects of his latest binge." Seiji said as he shut the door behind him. He and Kento went outside and to the lake near the dojo, the full moon illuminating the scene.

" This place is very nice. I can't remember it being so beautiful…" Kento commented as he lay down on the grass. He shut his eyes, still feeling the moonlight reach his eyes. His eyes flew open suddenly as something blocked the moonlight. Seiji was straddling him, legs firmly locked with Kento's thereby trapping Kongo in Kourin's tight embrace.

" You've softened up a lot, or is it just that you haven't been training?" Seiji asked, maintaining his grip on Kento. The Chinese man grunted in protest and with a swift movement, had Seiji pinned beneath him.

" Nope, of course I've been training. It never hurts to be prepared." Kento said as a placed a kiss on Seiji's lips. They rolled again and Seiji ended up on top. His fingers caught Kento's chin and he kissed him again, slipping his tongue into the warm cavern of Kento's mouth, biting ever so lightly on Kento's lips, a moan escaping from the imprisoned man's lips.

Seiji's hands explored under Kento's shirt, hands running over taunt muscles that hummed from their own heat. Seiji purred in satisfaction. His love was everything that he dreamed off, down to his open heart and ever forgiving nature. He wrapped his arms around Kento, letting Kento settle into his embrace.

"I love you Seiji-chan." Kento whispered, his eyes raised to meet Seiji's.

"Love you too. Now, let's make this the start of a new life for both of us, one without pain or shame, life will ease the pain." Seiji said as he once again capture Kento's lips in a hungry kiss.

1 year later…

" Kento. We have to same some cake for Ryo and the others you know?" Seiji said as he watched his husband devour their wedding cake.

" Awwh, come on Seiji. You and mom can make another one."

" Certainly not Kento, drop the cake or your husband will have to lock up any other food that you might find." Mama Fuan said, still amazed at her son's outrageous appetite.

" Shu…" Seiji said sternly, voice eerily calm. Kento stopped eating.

" All right fine." Kento said, " I better get compensated for this" he added in a huff. Mama Fuan smiled and took the cake away leaving the married couple alone.

" You will get full compensation Shu bear. We're leaving tonight ne? I have a wonderful honey moon planned, and believe me, you'll enjoy every bit." Seiji said, his voice sending untold shivers at his promise, violet eyes twinkling dangerously as his teeth found their way to Kento's neck, biting and tasted the earthly scent that was Kento. Kento smiled.

" Isn't my ass going to hurt? You seem very determined for me to submit." Kento said with a pout.

" Ahh Shu bear, you underestimate me. You seen, I want to have fun as well. Seiji said as he pulled his husband closer, the sun's last few rays casting off the gold ring on his finger, as well as the one on Kento's hand. His lips claimed Kento's a sweet and gentle caress, all the while ensuring that Kento wasn't going to turn tail and run.

:: I heard that Seiji. I'm no coward.:: Kento fumed across he and Seiji's telepathic link, the yoroi, made that possible.

:: Of course not Shu-chan. You taste so delicious tonight:: Seiji replied, plunging his tongue deeper into Kento's mouth, his fingers lost in the thick of Kento's hair. They pulled apart and smiled, happiness truly reigning in both their hearts.

" So, do you want a girl or a boy?" Seiji asked playfully. Kento decided that it was time to leave if not by the end of the evening he would see anything but wallpaper for a baby's room.
