Did it hurt when you fell from the heavens?

Chapter nine: Hisoka's part-time job

"Where are we going again?" asked Tsuzuki as they once again waved their way through the crowds. He and Hisoka had left the cloths shop after the blond had paid for the cloths that Tsuzuki now wore.

Hisoka sighed loudly and threw Tsuzuki a glaze over his shoulder. "I told you before: we are going to my part time job. It's not far from here, but make sure that you don't get lost in this mess" he said loudly so that the amethyst eyed man would hear him.

Tsuzuki smiled and rubbed the back of his head. "I remember now, sorry for asking" he said and avoided yet another man who almost bumped into him.

The blond smiled back. "It's ok. Here we are" he said and came to a stop.

Tsuzuki stopped beside Hisoka and looked at the building before him. The wingless angle looked at the cutest little café he had ever seen. Just outside of the green door with the letters `Tany's café'* spelled in yellow on it, stood three sets of tables and chairs with laughing couples. The smell from the small café tickled the angel's nose and his mouth watered at the thought of the sweets that gave that wonderful smell.

Hisoka noticed Tsuzuki's gaze and laughed for himself. "Let me guess, you have never been to this type of café haven't you?" he asked with a smile.

Tsuzuki shook his head when he heard the emerald eyed boy address him. He looked at the blond and blushed. "No, I haven't… you that's weird?" he asked shyly and dropped his gaze to the sidewalk. Hisoka must think that he is really a freak for not seeing a café before. He had heard about them from Watari and knew that this was just like one of those he had described so carefully.

Hisoka frowned and lifted the older man's chin to look into the amethyst eyes. "It's not weird, Tsuzuki. I have known a few people who have never seen a café before. I was one of them before I met Muraki. After I escaped I searched for a job to make money. I came across this place and now I know everything about cafés. Don't be ashamed, ok? Let's go in, I m late as it is" Hisoka said and grabbed Tsuzuki's hand and dragged him to the door of the little café.

The amethyst eyed angel sighed in relief. Hisoka didn't think of him as a freak. Tsuzuki was wondering over a thing that bothered him so much. Had Hisoka's parents been so mean to him that he had never been to the city before he was taken by Muraki? The angel couldn't believe the cruelty of some people. `I promise, Hisoka, you'll never be hurt like that by me. I'll help you even after we bring Muraki down' he thought.

They entered the café and the scent of sweets and pastry grew stronger. The shop was filled with talking people buying the delicious looking bakery and laughing at jokes that their friends told them. Tsuzuki looked in every direction, trying to catch all there was to see. He blindly followed Hisoka who headed to the back of the shop.

The little blond stopped by a doorway that was hidden with a white sheet. He turned to the amethyst eyed man behind him. "I'll tell him that I m here. Wait for me, ok? I'll ask him if I can leave early today" he told him and pushed the sheet out of his way and disappeared behind it.

"Ok, Soka" Tsuzuki said even if he wasn't sure if Hisoka had heard him. He waited as he had been told and after a few minutes an old lady passed by him. Smiled and gave him a pastry with whipped cream and said: take this. Tsuzuki smiled and rubbed the back of his head. "Why are you giving it to me? Shouldn't you keep what you buy?" he asked politely.

The old lady shook her head and continued smiling. "Take this. I give it to you just because you are the cutest thing I have ever seen" she said and placed the pastry in his hand. "The way you look after your little brother is so heart warming. I hope to see you around" she finished and left a blushing Tsuzuki by the sheet covered doorway.

"Cute, ne? She's so sweet giving me sweets" he said to himself and quickly ate the irresistible whipped cream pastry. He looked at the sheet as he licked cream from his thumb and forefinger. He could see Hisoka's silhouette through the thin fabric, and soon another one approached the blond. The man's shadow was larger the Hisoka, even Tsuzuki. The angel could hear a mumbled conversation between the two, before the newcomer raised a hand and smacked Hisoka hard across the cheek. Tsuzuki's eyes widened at the sight and he burst into the backroom with out asking for permission. "What is going on here?!" he asked asn looked at Hisoka.

Hisoka's head was facing from him. The blond's shoulders were shaking slightly, but it showed that he tried to hide it. Hisoka was crying. "I-it's alright, Tsuzuki. Please wait outside…" he whispered low, never facing the chocolate haired man.

Tsuzuki stared at the blond. Leave him with a man who just backhanded him? Frowning angrily, he glared at the man that had hurted his friend.

The man was tall and muscular. His head was adored with greasy, dark brown hair and his eyes were pitch-black. He wore a white apron and his green shirt had its sleeves rolled up to his elbows. "Who's this, brat? Your brother?" he grunted as he stepped up to Tsuzuki. He bent over so that he was nose to nose with the amethyst eyed intruder. "Ya know, you are cute for an adult"

Tsuzuki's nose caught the smell of sweat from the giant and wrinkled his nose. "Blech… disgusting. Get out of my face! You have no right to hurt Hisoka just because he's late! If you want to blame someone, blame me! Hisoka is just a kid!" he snapped, baring his teeth. His eyes sparkled with hatred for the child abuser.

The man straightened and slicked back his greasy hair. He didn't seem to notice the threat in Tsuzuki's statement and he grinned down at the smaller man. "The name is Tany and I m the owner of this rat hole. As for hurting the brat, he's used to it. This ain't the first time he has gotten a beating… but this time might be his last… that will say, if you agree on a trade…" he said and looked at his fingernails.

"What do you mean?" the angel growled. He didn't like this one bit.

Tany bent over once again and pushed Tsuzuki against the wall. "I'll stop beating the kid if you sped one night with me" he whispered close to the angel's ear and stuck his tongue out and licked Tsuzuki's earlobe.

The amethyst eyed man saw read. In the background he could hear could hear Hisoka's horrified gasp but otherwise his hearing was filled with a buzzing sound. How dared this man even suggest such a thing?! This man was no better then Muraki. He tried to turn his head away from Tany's face, but he was held hard. Tany lowered his mouth to Tsuzuki's, and all the angel could think of was: why? Why was he always the one every horny man jumped on? Why was he on earth instead of sitting in his home in heaven and drinking tea with Watari? Why was he paralyzed?

"Tsuzuki NO!" Hisoka shouted when he saw his boss about to kiss his friend. The emerald eyed boy was horrified. This couldn't be happening! Tsuzuki had meant well and now he was being molested by his own stinking boss? NO! He wouldn't let that happen! Rushing forward, he banged both of his fists into Tany's back. "Let him go, bastard!" he shouted, not caring if anyone heard him from the outside.

Tany growled loudly and twisted quickly, backhanding Hisoka again. He watched as the boy lost his balance and smacked his head against the counter. The boy slumped to the ground, unconscious. "Good riddens! Now, where was I?" he asked himself and turned around o molest the beautiful man behind him…

… only to meet a handful of hard knuckles.

Tsuzuki panted hard as he watched the big bully fall to the floor, his jaw bruised and a few teeth knocked out. it took Tsuzuki a minute before he felt the pain in his hand after the blow. "Ite…" he whined and rubbed his bloody hand. "Must have cut my knuckles on his teeth… no matter. I need to get Hisoka back home…" he said to himself and went over to his unresponsive friend. "Let's head back… Soka"

****

It took Tsuzuki about an hour before he finally lay Hisoka down on the bed in Hisoka's home. They would have arrived earlier if he hadn't been stopped by questioning costumers. He had told them everything except for the molesting part. After he had managed to leave the café, a man had noticed Hisoka's bleeding wound on his head. The man had proved to be a doctor that had bandaged his head and insisted that Tsuzuki should bring the boy to a hospital. But Tsuzuki hadn't done that. He knew somehow that the blond wouldn't be to happy with being in such a place where Muraki could find him.

The amethyst eyed angel sat by Hisoka's side and pushed a few strands from the sleeping face. "I m sorry that I couldn't protect you, Soka… please forgive me…" he said and laid down beside the unconscious body. He warped an arm around the boy's waist and held him close. With a soft kiss on the forehead, Tsuzuki settled down and let sleep overtake him.

In the mansion sat Muraki. He wasn't happy at the lousy progress that the Slowaks had presented him. He wanted the couple found and brought to him…

`Tsuzuki-san… I can feel that your little boy is weakened. It's only a matter of time before I have you in my arms again, little angel. When I finally have you here, I'll make the most beautiful painting you have ever seen… and you are the motive that will make that painting…'
