Chapter six.

 

The week went by rather fast for Ryo and soon it was Thursday night. Only one night of work left and he'd get to spend some quality time with Bikky. Well for a few days at least. Bikky came home the other day with a message from his teacher.

 

 

OXo~*~Flashback~*~oXo

 

The door was pushed open and slammed shut by a still angry teenager. It was Tuesday and Bikky still actively showed how very angry he was. Every day after school he was in a foul mood and would not leave his room. When Ryo made him dinner he slowly made his way to the kitchen and sat at the table. He was aware that he was in the wrong and that his angry attitude hurt Ryo's feelings.

 

He hadn't said anything to Ryo since that night and felt really bad but didn't know how to apologise. Today though he knew he had to speak to Ryo about school and how he had forgot to tell Ryo about it last week. Today he had gotten a reminder from his teacher about it.

 

“Um, Ryo? I need to talk to you. It's about school.” He looked up at Ryo who nodded for him to continue.

 

“Well, I was supposed to tell you this last week but I kinda… forgot.” Ryo didn't say anything only nodded with a serious look in his eyes.

 

“Well last week we where told about our class' school trip. They finally set a date on it and we are supposed to leave on Wednesday next week.” Ryo listened and thought about it. Yeah he remembered the trip the class had been planning all semester. They where supposed to go skiing for about ten days but there had been problems with departure date among the six parents who where going along.

 

“So all parents where finally able to settle for a date then? About time to! I thought they where going to wait until you where in senior year of high school with the rate they where going. So all I need to do now is agree for you to go? You think I should?” Ryo looked at Bikky with a slightly sad look in his eyes.

 

“I mean you are under house arrest after all. Your behaviour these last few days have hardly shown any sign of regret and that in my eyes should not be rewarded. Your treatment has hurt me I hope you realise that. I wouldn't want to let you think I'm not serious ab…” Ryo suddenly became quiet when a pair of arms encircled his waist and he looked down to see a sobbing Bikky holding him. He took hold of Bikky's shoulders and moved to sit on his knees in front of the boy.

 

Ryo pulled the boy to him and held him while the tears of what could only be seen as regret poured out of the boy. Bikky collapsed into Ryo's embrace and held on to him like a lifeline. After a few minutes Bikky stopped crying and only sniffled slightly. Soon Ryo heard a low faint voice.

 

“I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you I just… I don't know how to explain but I just felt angry and wanted you to know it or something. But I really didn't mean to hurt you. I would never do that. Please forgive me.” Bikky didn't look up to meet Ryo's eyes or he would see the smile he wore at hearing the boy's words.

 

“Hush now Bikky I understand. You where angry since you still feel you where just trying to help. It's all right. I understand. But please don't do that again. It's better if you talk or yell me and show your anger. Communication Bikky that's really important okay?” They talked about it some more while Bikky sat at the table to finally eat his food.

 

“So Biks, Am I supposed to sign an agreement for you going on the trip.” The look in Bikky's eyes was priceless. Ryo had just given his agreement to Bikky and the boy was overjoyed, He grinned widely and said.

 

“No teach thought it would be better if all parents called her and gave their answer instead, to prevent any false signatures. That actually happens a lot in our school.” After that Ryo had left for work and Bikky Played his videogames.

`Well at least he's talking to me now. But it really is not fun to see him so gloomy.'

 

Ryo was working in the same bar as Ted tonight, for that he was grateful. The others always tried to make a fool out of him. They would trip him if he passed behind them. They bumped into him while passing and other stuff like that. They always tried when he had his hands full of glasses or whatever. But he was always on alert and they usually failed miserably, If on the off chance they would succeed, he was too graceful in his movements to actually fall or drop most of what he was carrying.

 

But this night he worked with Ted who treated him kindly. Diana usually made sure he worked with one of them but sometimes they where both off and she couldn't do anything.

 

Ryo and Ted worked well together, they concentrated on their work and both ignored the many flirtatious remarks people gave them. Where Ted and Ryo both worked this way, Diana on the other hand would love to tease both the guests and the person she worked with. Her favourite to tease was Ryo.

 

On this Thursday night it was an easy night, the place was not packed but still crowded. Ryo let his gaze travel across the club and soon found the eyes of a man who had come for dinner every night for the past four evenings.

 

 

Dee sat at a table in the restaurant and watched his love interest work. He knew that Ryo would soon see him. After all he had done this very same thing for the past four nights already. And as predicted Ryo soon let his gaze slid across the club until he froze at meeting Dee's eyes.

 

 

Dee had never said he wouldn't contact Ryo before the awaited call arrived, (he never doubted Ryo would call). All he said was that he would be waiting for the call. That didn't mean he wouldn't see him until that time. He had come here these past few nights to just be near Ryo and remind him of his presence. He had not approached Ryo yet, only kept near the bar after dinner, silently and discreetly watching his every move.

 

The only problem was how he was feeling after hours of watching Ryo. He would always be in need of either a very cold shower or he had to take care of the problem in his own hands he usually did the latter first and then went with the shower.

 

This night was no different, the whole time he spent watching Ryo he would feel a slight stirring in his nether regions. He growled softly to himself, he had to get a proper release and soon too. But he would force himself to wait until Ryo was finally his, and he wouldn't have it any other way. He wanted only Ryo.

 

 

Ryo worked on and noticed how Dee still made no move to talk to him. But his constant presence made Ryo think in ways he didn't feel was appropriate for this time and place. It would mean big trouble if anyone noticed the slight bulge that some times appeared in his pants, while feeling those gorgeous eyes follow his every move.

 

Ryo had never considered himself as being gay but he had never really denied it either. He was always a private person and had never had any serious relationships. The only relationship he ever had was when he was 17. He had been dating a girl that was 16 for over a year before he made the decision to break up with her.

 

He had no romantic feelings towards her and it wasn't fair to her. Well that was ancient history now. Ryo's eyes travelled to meet Dee's for what seemed like the hundredth time that night. Come closing hour Dee would leave and Ryo would find himself wishing he had at least had the guts to talk to Dee. Maybe he should call? What harm could it do?

 

He knew well enough what harm it could do.

 

`Well maybe just a little talk was okay and maybe lunch or dinner or a night out or maybe a night of passion. No! Stop! This is not good. Shit I can't keep this up.'

 

Ryo kept working in silence until his night was over.

 

 

“Okay Ted I'm leaving now.” Ryo came out of the dressing room.

 

“Yeah, so you finally got the long awaited vacation huh? Well if anyone deserves time off it's without a doubt you. Have fun now, don't do anything I wouldn't do.” Ted grinned and waved at Ryo who turned in the door smiling at him.

 

“Heh, They haven't invent something you wouldn't do. Bye.” Ryo went out and heard Ted lock the door behind him. Ryo walked down the streets with his hood up and thoughts whirling in his head.

 

`I'm really gonna enjoy these weeks of freedom. I need the rest, but what will I do once Bikky leaves? It'll be more than one week alone. Hmm I guess I'll just have to find something to do. Maybe I should call Dee. I would really like to get to know him after all. No! not those thoughts again. Why am I obsessing over him? There would only be trouble from such a union. But I can't stop thinking about him! Those eyes I could drown in if only I was allowed, his beautiful face and that hair. Stop it! Jeez one would almost suspect I'm desperate or something. I sound like a lovesick fourteen-year-old. Heh.”

 

Ryo chuckled quietly to himself and walked on when he was slightly startled to notice how someone was walking behind him and approaching carefully. Ryo was instantly on alert but walked on not showing he had heard the one following him.

 

When the person behind Ryo got closer Ryo felt a hand clasping his left shoulder and he instantly grabbed the wrist with his left hand and turned at amazing speed and within a second his follower was caught in a strong stranglehold and pushed up against a wall. The man spoke in a careful slightly choked voice.

 

“R…Ryo hey it's me Dee. Let…go.” Ryo gasped it all happened so fast that he didn't see who the perpetrator was. When he realised it was Dee he immediately let go and hung his head low in shame.

 

“I…I'm so sorry I didn't see it was you.” Ryo didn't meet his eyes but if he did he would have seen an amused look in Dee's eyes.

 

`So the kitten's got a bite? Now that is interesting.' Dee decided to ease the guilt in the other man.

 

“Hey that's all right. It's not like I couldn't beat you if I had wanted to. Heh.” Now Ryo did look up and saw the teasing look in Dee's eyes.

 

“You're such a jerk. Anyway it was your fault for sneaking up on me like that. What did you think you where doing?” Dee liked to tease and that was something Ryo quickly learning.

 

“Well in that thick hood who could blame you for not seeing anything. I hardly knew if it was really you or not. Why do you wear it, to hide that cute face of yours from the public? Well as long as you show it to me I'm happy.” He winked and Ryo's eyes went wide as saucers and his blush was clearly visible. Ryo collected himself and spoke up.

 

“Never mind that. What do you want? Did you wait outside for me to quit work? Are you one of those weird stalkers?” Dee laughed softly at Ryo's babbling.

 

“Yes I did wait but not like a stalker. I wanted to give you this.” Dee held out an envelope and Ryo took it. When he opened it he gasped, inside there were tickets to next week's NBA game between the New York Knicks and the Chicago Bulls. Bikky had been so disappointed when they realised the tickets where sold out.

 

“How did you get these? They have been sold out for weeks. I mean why?” Ryo was thrilled. But he didn't want to go without Bikky.

 

“Hey a guy I know had a few tickets and sold me three. Those two are for you and the brat. I want you to come with me there. Please will you give me just that one night to get to know you? I promise I won't make you regret it.” Ryo really wanted to agree but could he really let himself do it? Could he let himself do something for him?

 

“I don't know Dee I…” De cut him off.

 

“No Ryo, please go home and think about it. You have my number. Call me if you want to go with me and if I don't get your call I won't go and you can still bring the brat. I just want one chance to let us get to know each other.” Dee spoke with such conviction and Ryo felt himself believing in what Dee told him.

 

“I promise to think about it. Okay?” Ryo looked into Dee's eyes and Dee leaned closer, inches from Ryo's face he whispered.

 

“That's all I'm asking for.” And with that he sealed their lips together and Ryo froze shocked for a moment until he relaxed and all to soon the kiss was over. Dee had ended the kiss and looked at Ryo with a smug look on his face.

 

“Well now that I got one more taste of you, I can't wait for the next. Bye” Dee just turned and left. Ryo stood there stunned and watched Dee leave.

 

`Dee? How can he do that? First kiss me and when I get into it he just leaves me. Jeez I need a cold shower.' Annoyed Ryo turned around he continued to make his way home with the tickets in his pocket.

AN. So here you go. A new chapter and on my very own birthday no less.

Today I turn 23 and it's a beautiful day sunny and warm with a slight breeze.

 

So why don't you all just write a nice little review as a gift to me??? **Some shameless begging going on. **

 

Anyway, this chapter didn't have so much going on in it. It was yet one of those chapters needed to get the story going.

 

I know some of you, **looks around at everybody** wants a little Ryo-Dee action. But We still have the issue of a certain dinner with `Master Rose' to deal with before we know if Ryo will call Dee or not.

 

I hope you enjoyed reading and I'll see you next chapter.

 

Ja ne.
