Forever Love (M/Private for Dark)

Kazuo woke from the sound of the bell. He quickly wiped his mouth with the sleeve of his uniform. He stood up and grabbed the few books he actually carried. He walked out of the classroom and started strolling down the halls. The girls loved Kazuo. He was definitely the cutest boy in school. But it didn't matter what the handsome boy wanted, he was betrothed at his young age. He smiled at the females and sometimes kissed the tops of their hands. He continued to walk down the halls until he got called by his friends. He turned to look at them and then felt a hard bump into his side. he turned and then looked down when he noticed there was nobody standing. "Are you alright?" he asked before he realized it was his betrothed. He quickly held out his hand to "her" and smiled.

"Holy crap, I am so sorry." He helped Haruka to his feet and then wrapped his arms around him swiftly. If they were going to be married soon, he would have to try and start liking this girl, even though she was very pretty. he pulled her away and then looked into her beautiful eyes. "You look amazing today, just thought you should know." he said to her. He bent down a bit to kiss Haruka's cheek and then reached for her hand. He was really trying today.

Kazuo smiled and then gently grabbed Haruki's hand and placed it back on his head. He stared into Haruki's eyes and then leaned in for another kiss. He kissed the "girl" on the cheek ad slowly made his way towards the lips and then decided to stop. 'We are at school right now, there's time for that later,' he thought to himself. His hand moved to Haruki's waist and pulled her closer to him. He smiled and even chuckled a little. "I have yet to eat. Have you eaten?" he asked.

Ryoza smiled as he walked up to the two and made a kissy face at them. Truth be told he had feelings for Haruki and found it ridiculous that she was going to be married to Kazuo and not him. He would make the perfect husband. "How are the 'love birds' doing today?" he joked as he punched Kazuo in the side.

Kazuo smiled a fake smile and then quickly released Haruki. He started walking towards the retreating Ryoza. "wanna do that again, friend?" he asked as he balled his fist for some much needed pay back. He swung at Ryoza and got him right in the nuts. Ryoza dropped to his knees and started trying to laugh, but only anger came out of his mouth as he streamed a line of cuss words not known by any man.

Kazuo walked over to Haruki's side and placed his arm around him. "Ready?" he asked, smiling at his fiance.

Kazuo smiled as Haruki held onto his arm. They started walking towards the cafeteria as he started to explain. "Well, you see... Ryoza and I have that sort of relationship. We are best friends and at times we punch each other a little too hard. It's what males do. I know it's hard to explain, but if anyone tried to hurt him, I would have his back and he would do the same for me." They came to a stop outside the double doors. He took both of Haruki's hands and held them in his own. He pressed them up against his chest and smiled down at Haruki. "I wouldn't worry about it sweetie." With that being said, he reached his head down and kissed Haruki right on the lips. His tongue played with them, trying to pry them open softly. He was really starting to like this girl.

Kazuo nodded his head as he heard Haruki's excuse. She was right. If they got caught by a teacher, they would both be in huge amounts of trouble. As they opened the doors and walked towards the other students, Kazuo found himself being turned away from Haruki. Tagomi grabbed Kazuo's shoulder and forced him to face his direction. "Dude did you see the game last night?" he asked. Kazuo wanted to give him his full attention, but he noticed Kumi pull Haruki close and seemed to kiss her on the cheek. He was confused and curious, but he looked to his friend. "Yeah it was cool, but he should have been out at second."

The two boys continued to banter on about sports and various subjects as they walked through the line, grabbing the food they wanted to eat. Kazuo had sort of forgotten that Haruki was even with him. Aiko had been sitting with her cheerleader friends, watching them closely. She had always had a crush on Kazuo since they started going to high school. She stood up and straightened her skirt, making it look as perfect as she wished that she was. She walked over to Kazuo and lightly placed her hand on his shoulder as her crystal blue eyes gazed at Haruka. She smirked, knowing exactly what she was doing.

Kazuo turned to face her and immediately smiled. He always did this around cute girls but he knew he was to be true to Haruka. "Oh, hey Aiko. Didn't see you there," he said. Aiko smiled and ran one hand down his chest as she smiled and stared into his eyes, watching Haruka with her peripherals, making sure she saw it all. "Are you starting at the game tonight?" she asked in a flirtatious manner. Before Kazuo could speak, Tagomi cut him off, "of course he is! He's the best pitcher that we have!" Kazuo, not knowing what to do, scratched his head in confusion. He looked to Haruka and smiled.

Kazuo felt the touch of his betrothed and turned to face Haruka. He smiled down at him and raised his hand to brush Haruka's cheek. "I will come with you." Aiko let out a sigh of anger and quickly moved between the two. She stood on her tip toes and leaned in to kiss Kazuo on the lips. It wasn't a long kiss, it was just a message that was needed to be seen by Haruka. When she was done, she came back flat on her feet and looked at Haruka. "I have to go anyways. My team needs me." With that being said, she turned around and headed over to her giggling friends who had seen the whole thing. It was a show, nothing more, nothing less. She liked Kazuo and thought if she played hard enough, he would leave the geeky Haruka and be with her.

Kazuo stood in shock, not too sure on how to approach the situation now. He looked to Tagomi for answers, but that was all the wrong source. Tagomi patted him on the back and hugged him, "dude that was bad ass! You could ask the both of them to have a threesome or something. That would be so awesome. You would be my hero for that!" Kazuo smirked at the idea, not that he actually would, but it was a nice picture in his mind. He shook from his day dream and stared at the beautiful Haruka. "I am sorry Haruka. I couldn't stop her. I don't know what to say to you."

Kazuo watched as his friend was pushed out oft he way. What or who could have done that? But when he looked forward, his lips were joined with another's. He closed his eyes and felt the tongue split his lips. He placed his hands on Haruki's hips and started pulling him closer, but the other male pulled away too quickly. Kazuo grabbed his tray and followed Haruki like a little lost puppy. He sat down next to his fiance and listened to everything that came out of his mouth. He watched at Aio was concerned for his betrothed. He was also concerned but he had another pressing matter that consumed him. His jeans started to feel a little tight. He hid the bulge the best he could so nobody would see.

He looked at Haruki and smiled. "I have no idea. I hope they don't make too big of an ordeal over the whole thing," he said and then chuckled to himself.

Kazuo smiled as he listened to his fiance speak about the wedding. "I guess you are right. My dad is pretty pumped about the whole thing." Before Kazuo could complete his sentence, he was cut off by Tagomi, who sat right beside him. "At least now he will know you aren't gay!" Kazuo smiled and laughed along with his friend. He started eating some of his food as he realized Haruki hit his head on the table.

"Are you alright babe?" he asked in a loving manner, while placing his hand on her back. Before she answered she asked, "are you happy being married off to someone your family is supposed to despise?" He stopped chewing the food that was in his mouth and sat still for a moment. Tagomi placed his hands over Kazuo's ear and whispered something very quiet into it.

Haruki watched as Kazuo's friend leaned in and whispered something in his ear. Confused and slightly embarrassed, Haruki stood and ran. The world zoomed past him as he bolted down the stairs, surprising himself later that he didn't fall. White school building blurred into brown and green as he turned off the path into the woods. His chest hurt, but he didn't care all he knew was that he had to get away. He wasn't even sure why he had bolted.

He slowed, falling to his knees as he stumbled over a rock. His breathing came in heavy pants as he held himself up on his arms. His shoulders shook with unshed tears. He wondered if anyone had bothered to follow him. He didn't bother turning around to find out, instead shifting so he could wrap his arms around his knees and rest his chin on them. As his mind caught up with the actions of his body, he felt a fresh wave of embarrassment. Why in the hell had he run? It wasn't like the friend had been hitting on Kazuo, right?

Sighing, Haruki stood and continued walking forward instead of going back to school. He wanted to think, had to find something other than the image of another guy pressing his lips against Kazuo's ear. Damn it, he was NOT jealous. Frustrated at his own emotions, Haruki failed to notice how low the sun was.

(((OOC: O.O I have no idea why he ran.)))

Kazuo was knocked out of a daze as Haruki ran from the table. He was shocked and confused. What had happened that caused his fiance to leave like that? He decided it was the fault of his friend, and punched his shoulder very hard. Tagomi gave him an evil stare and rubbed his arm where he had been punched. "What was that for you asshole?" he yelled out as Kazuo left in the same direction Haruki had.

He busted through the double doors of the cafeteria, hoping that Haruki had slowed down or not gone very far. His eyes scanned the grounds, but there was no sign of the "female" he was supposed to marry. Instinctively he headed off in one direction. He knew Haruki had gone over there often to get away from the pressures of class and students. He pushed by bushes and branches.

"Haruka! Haruka! Where are you?" He ran after her, hoping to find her. After minutes of searching, he finally did. He ran to her side and placed his on her shoulders. "Why did you leave so fast? I was worried sick about you." He leaned in and kissed her cheek. He was really starting to fall for this "chick" as his friends called her.

Haruki leaned against the tree, his breathing coming in short pants. He had run and was probably now lost. Damn, he wasn't some pansy. He would find his way. With his thoughts not focused on things around him, he didn't hear Kazuo. A hand clamped on his shoulder and soft lips pressed against his cheek. Startled he let out a small shriek and fell to the ground in an attempt to get away. His heart calmed a little when he realized who it was.

"Yah! Don't do that, you nearly gave me a heart attack." Haruki ignored the inquiry about his escape. Instead standing and brushing dirt off his uniform. "Aren't you going to get in trouble for skipping class or is school over yet?"

Haruki kept his gaze on dusting off his uniform, that was now free of dirt. The wind picked up and Haruki shivered, not really cold as surprised by the sudden wind.

(((T_T This fails, *bows* Sumimasen)))

Kazuo smiled and started chuckling as he helped Haruki to his feet. He wrapped his arms around Haruki and kissed the top of his head. "Don't worry about me. If dad even finds out, which I don't think he will, I will just sneak out of the house to see you anyways. But, don't be like that please. Why did you leave? I am very sorry if I did anything to provoke it." He grabbed her hand and held it tightly in his. As he spoke to her, he rested his chin on her head.

He closed his eyes as he held her, thinking what his mother would say. He chuckled to himself and then moved her away from him. He stared into her eyes, "What are you doing tonight?"

Haruki felt his cheeks heat as warmth enveloped him. Haruki could hear the echo of vibration in Kazuo's chest when the other spoke. Lips pressed against his scalp and Haruki closed his eyes, leaning into the hug. Haruki curled his fingers lightly around the fabric of the others uniform, and didn't let go of Kazuo's hand.

"I just had to get some air." he refused to admit he was jealous, absolutely refused to. Suddenly, he was held at arms length and he instantly missed the warmth. "I have practice and then I don't think I have anything else. Practice doesn't start until after nightfall though. Why?"

Kazuo stared into Haruka's eyes. "Haruka, don't go to practice. Come with me... Please?" He stared deeply into Haruki's as if begging with his own eyes. It was true, every time he looked at her, he felt more and more in-love. Yes he was being forced into marrying her, but deep down inside he really just wanted to get to know her better. "I will drive you to a special place where it's just you and me. Please Haruka?" he asked again before she could even answer the first time.

((I know it's really short but I have a plan))

Haruki felt his eyes widen in shock and fear. Oh, if he missed practice his parent's would kill him, but Kazuo didn't know that. He didn't need to know either. Haruki opened his mouth to answer only to shut as Kazuo started speaking once more. Smiling, Haruki stepped forward and laid his head on Kazuo's chest, wrapping his arms around the other.

"I can skip, they won't mind too much since I'm the best they have." He didn't add that while they wouldn't mind too much they would still mind and punish him. "Where's this secret place? Are we going now?"

Haruki really didn't want to go back to class.

(((Oh~ I wanna know >.<)))

Kazuo smiled down at his "princess" and quickly swept her off her feet. He carried her in his arms as he walked quickly back to his car. He unlocked it and opened the door for her. He placed her on the seat and kissed her forehead before he closed the door tight. He ran to his side of the car and sat down. He put the keys in the ignition and turned his head to look at her. "Haruka, I know we haven't been together for very long, but I really do like you." He turned his head forward and started driving to the secret spot. He drove for a while, in and out of traffic until they reached a deserted strip. He drove through the field in his four wheel drive truck until they reached a lone oak tree. He shut off the car and got out. He was quick to get out and open her door. He grabbed her hand and helped her out. He took out a blanket from his back seat and laid it flat on the ground. He smiled and laid down on the blanket.

He turned his head and smiled up at her. "Are you going to join me, or just stand and watch me?" The tree sat upon a hill that looked over the city below. From where Kazuo was laying, he could see it all.

Haruki let out a surprised squeak and wrapped his arms around Kazuo's neck as he was carried bridal style off school property. His long hair covered the blush as the wind blew it around like paper. He was set down, his side now cold, and hoped in the car.

"Haruka, I know we haven't been together for very long, but I really do like you." Haruki blushed from both happiness and guilt. Would Kazuo still like him if he knew his true gender? Haruki felt the twinge of fear and realized it was too late for him not to care about the male. He looked out the window, wondering if he should tell Kazuo. Before he realized it the car was stopping and Kazuo was opening his door.

Smiling, Haruki stepped out of the car and froze. The view was beautiful. He could see the whole city cradled between mountains. Kazuo's words jolted him back to his body. Blushing harder, Haruki moved to sit beside Kazuo.

"It's so beautiful here. How did you find it?" Haruki twisted so he was leaning on one arm a little over Kazuo, his hair falling over his shoulder.

Kazuo smiled as his bride to be laid beside him. He placed one arm across Haruki's hip and pulled him in closer. He lifted his head up and kissed the soft lips of the male above him. The kiss was tender and sweet, but as he felt himself getting aroused, he placed a hand behind Haruki's head and leaned him in closer. His tongue split both of their lips and danced around in Haruki's mouth. Finally he pulled away and stared deeply into Haruki's eyes.

"So tell me about yourself. What do you like to do?" he asked as he ran one hand through her hair.

Haruki closed his eyes as lips brushed his own before claiming them fully. Haruki parted his lips, gasping when Kazuo's swept into his mouth tasting oddly of mint. Heat pooled in his lower regions, not that he cared if his secret was caught at the moment. Haruki let out a small whimper as the kiss deepened. However, Kazuo pulled away and all Haruki could do was stare back into those beautiful eyes.

"I like ice cream and dancing. I know how to write Japanese calligraphy and a little bit of Chinese and English. What do you like to do?" Haruki was glad the other was lying down because then he couldn't see Haruki's arousal, not that it was really evident anyway. Haruki lay his head on Kazuo's chest and laid an arm over the other's middle, careful to avoid going to low.

(((We can skip a few days if you like, cause the way we're going, Haruki's secret won't last very long XD)))
