My Secret

Disclaimer: I don't own FY so don't sue me.

Author Notes: This is a Nuriko fic. I thought it would be cool if Nuriko actually wasn't gay. It's like a psychological thing. When he cross-dressed he was Korin, but that means he wasn't Ryuuen very often. See what I mean? So let's say he embraced his manhood and had forgiven himself about Korin's death for just a few moments. What would happen? He'd get a girl? Maybe. Let's see…

Oh yeah! In this chapter I'm starting from his childhood. Good reading to you!

" Are you sure about this Ryuuen?"

" No, but I'm still gonna do it."

"Don't leave me. Who will I play with?"

" I'm sorry, but I just can't stay there anymore. My parents don't understand me, and they treat me as if I'm a freak. My brother, Rokou is even worse. He doesn't want to understand me, so he just ignores me. You don't know what it feels like to be treated that way. I know they love me, but they won't accept me, so I have to go."

"You could hide here. My parents wouldn't mind you."

" No. I can't. You have to understand that I will no longer be Ryuuen. I will-…am Korin. Korin-…I want to go to the palace, and be placed within the emperor's harem. That is what I must do."

" Oh Ryuuen, please be careful. If they find out what you're doing-"

" I know, they'll kill me. No. They'll torture me, and then they'll kill me. Don't worry; you know I can take care of myself. Don't cry either. Who knows? Maybe we'll meet up again someday."

The purple-haired boy turned around to get on his horse.

" Ryuuen wait!"

The ten-year-old stopped.

"What?"

The ten-year-old girl stepped up to him, and gave him a hug. When she stepped back, Ryuuen looked at her. Never again would he see her dark brown hair, or her smiling face. No longer would he be able tp call her Odango, because of the one ball of hair on the side of her head, ending with a looped braid.

He knew there was a slim chance of him ever seeing his best friend again, so he hugged her once more before mounting his horse. As he started to trot forward, he looked back to say his last goodbyes.

"Sayonara Serei."

"Goodbye Ryuuen, and may Suzaku watch over you."

With that, he forced his horse into full-gallop, and this time he didn't look back.

So far, so good. I don't know how long it will take me to post my next chapter, but look out for it. In the next chapter, Nuriko will be15, turning 16. This fic is rated R already, but I think I'll have to change it to NC-17. Review and tell me which one you think it should be for the next chapter. Thanks!
