“Yuto-kun, I want to try that game!” Ryosuke said, and he drag the older boy toward the games stand. “I want to get that toys!” he exclaimed again while pointed at a big strawberry doll, and Yuto just chuckled at his childishness.

“Let me try to get it for you.” Yuto said, and he try to shot that doll. He failed at first, but the doll fall successfully at the second shot. Yuto smiled widely, and then the stand man gives the doll to Yuto. The taller boy handed it to Ryosuke.
“Uwaaahh, kawaii! Hontou ni arigatou Yuto-kun!” Ryosuke said happily, and Yuto just nodded.
Unconsciously Yuto intertwined his hand on Ryosuke’s hand, that makes the younger boy blush. Ryosuke stopped for a moment, makes Yuto just looked at him confused. When Yuto realized that Ryosuke stopped because their intertwined hands, Yuto feel awkward at first, but he just pulled Ryosuke closer to him.
“So that you won’t get separated from me.” Yuto said casually, trying to calm down his beating heart. Ryosuke hang down his head, hiding his blushing cheek, and then he nodded his head. ‘cute’ Yuto thought, and he smiled because of that.
Then they continued to look around. They visited the stands one by one to try the games, foods, or just looked at the accessories that sell in there. At the 5 pm, there is a music show, and Yuto drag Ryosuke to see it. The band that performed really good, Yuto and Ryosuke really enjoyed the performance. When the clock strike almost 8 pm, Yuto then hold Ryosuke wrist again, pulled him to out from that crowded place.
“Yuto-kun, where will we going?” Ryosuke ask curious.
“Let’s find a better place to see the fireworks.” Yuto said. After some minutes walks among the crowd, finally Yuto stopped his pace. They stopped at beside the river, that less crowded than the previous place. There are a lot of couples in there, maybe they want a romantic atmosphere while watching the fireworks.
“From here, we will have a clear view.” Yuto said, and he sit at the bench, followed by Ryosuke.
“Un! Sugoi na~ Yuto-kun, you can find this perfect spot.” Ryosuke said happily, and he looked at the dark sky, waiting for the fireworks. They are just silence, sit beside each other, don’t need a conversation. Ryosuke still looked at the sky, and Yuto observing him.
Those angelic face, those smile, how Yuto want to see them for his entire life. Then, Yuto’s gaze down to Ryosuke’s red lips. Those soft lips, Yuto really want to touch it with his own lips. Yuto’s heart beating faster again, he really love the smaller guy beside him. His feeling is suffocating him, and he can’t resist his feeling again. He called the younger boy softly.
“Ryosuke..” Yuto said softly, and the younger looked at him with innocent face.
“Hmm..?” Ryosuke ask, looked at the older with curiousity.
“I Love you..” Yuto said, very softly and gentle, and staring at the younger with very loving eyes. Ryosuke is taken aback by Yuto’s confession. He can’t utter a single word.
A second later, a loud explosion can be heard, the sky become colorful because of the fireworks, but still Ryosuke can’t utter a word, he can’t express his feelings now. Yuto still staring at him lovingly, and slowly his face become closer, and close the gap between them. Ryosuke can feels Yuto’s soft lips on his, kiss him with very gentle way. Ryosuke shock at first, but he doesn’t complain. Instead, he like it, and kiss Yuto back.
They kiss for a minutes, until Ryosuke broke apart when they needed an air. Yuto smile warmly at him.
“I really love you Ryosuke. Although we are cousin, can you accept my love?” Yuto ask softly, and when Ryosuke nodded, Yuto can’t utter a single word because of his happiness. He just hugged the shorter boy, and feels happy when the younger snuggling in his embrace. They stayed on that position for some minutes until Ryosuke pulled apart.
“Yuto-kun..can I ask you a favor?” Ryosuke ask hesitantly, and Yuto nodded. “What is it?” Yuto ask.
“Maybe this is a bit selfish, but I ask this because I really love Yuto-kun. I am really grateful that you love someone like me. No matter happens to us, no matter how hard the situation for us, you will still love me. You won’t forget about me, and trust me, because I won’t forget you and will love you with all my heart. Can I ask you that?” Ryosuke said.
Yuto a bit confused by Ryosuke’s favor. After all it’s not hard to do, but the tone Ryosuke make, it seems like he say ‘goodbye’, but Yuto spat that bad thinking. He staring at his now lover lovingly, and nodded.
“Of course, Ryosuke. I will love you forever, and won’t forget you.” Yuto said, and the latter hug him again. Yuto smiling and hug him back. They feel grateful with each other presence.
“I love Yuto-kun.” Ryosuke said softly, and Yuto just tightened his hug.

However, it’s different with Yuto. The lanky boy come to Ryosuke’s apartment to pick up his lover now, but when no one opened the door, Yuto being confused. Opened the door with his spare key, Yuto entered the room only to meet with empty room. The lanky boy found a small letter on the table, the letter from Ryosuke that said he is run away, and doesn’t want them to search for him.

He looked up at Kota, only to see him nodded his head. He sits beside Daiki hesitantly, but when his brothers don’t say anything he just shrugged his shoulder. Looked at this, Hikaru and Inoo just smile and served his masters.
They just ate in silence, but Ryosuke feels grateful. At least he can experience eat together with his family. After thirty minutes, they finished their meal, and the maids clean the table while Hikaru and Inoo served the appetizer for their masters. Kota is busy with his phone while Yuya chat happily with Daiki when Ryosuke interrupted them.
“Anoo..” Ryosuke said, and the three older guy look at him. Ryosuke then stood up and bowed 90 degree.

“Don’t be so exaggerating Ryosuke. It’s just dinner.” Kota said, and that makes Ryosuke smile wider.
“Maybe it’s just a plain moment for you, but for me it’s the happiest moment in my life. And thank you for calling me with my name.” Ryosuke said again. Hearing that, Hikaru that stand beside Kota just teary eyed meanwhile Kota, Yuya and Daiki still silence.
“And I want to say sorry to you all..” Ryosuke continued again. “I know that you don’t want my presence in this house, but I really feel grateful that you give me a chance to be your butler, so I know more about you. Although you hate me, but I feel lucky to have you as my brothers.” Ryosuke said with sincere eyes. Then, the fell into awkward silence until Kota break it.
“Still you have one week to go about the challenge. If you don’t do it right, we can’t accept you in this house.” Kota said awkwardly. Ryosuke chuckled at Kota’s antics.
“I know, nii-chan.” He said, and then he pulled out something from his bag. “And, because tomorrow is a special day, I make this for you all.” He said, and handed the three older guys in front of him a small box.
“What special day?” Daiki ask, confused.
“Tomorrow is 26th wedding anniversary for your parents.” Inoo suddenly said, and finally the three brothers remember it. “Ryosuke-sama did his best to make this handkerchief for you three. He also made two more as a gift for your father and mother.” Inoo added.
“I know it’s just a cheap gift, because I can’t buy something expensive that suited your taste. You can put my gifts for them when you visited their tomb, and say my regard toward them ne~.” Ryosuke said. Kota, Yuya and Daiki just silence, and Ryosuke sighed, know that his brothers still hate him. He then decided to back to his apartment.
“Jaa~ I will left then. Ittekimasu.” Ryosuke said, and left the dining room. Inoo accompanied him until the front door.
“Ki wo tsukete, Ryosuke-sama.” Inoo said then bowed his head. Ryosuke smile and left that big mansion. When he outside the gate, he looked at that mansion.
“From now on, please be fine, Nii-chan tachi.” Ryosuke said softly, and unconsciously his tear fell down.

“Ohayou Ryosuke!” Yuto said cheerfully when the younger opened the door. Ryosuke smile cheerfully, and then grabbed his bag. He put his jacket and use his shoe, and then locked his door.
“Saa~ ikou ka?” Yuto ask, and Ryosuke nodded. Yuto then hold Ryosuke’s wrist and the brown hair boy just hide his blushing cheek. His cheek reddened more when Yuto opened the passenger seat for him like a gentle prince. Ryosuke just can utter a soft ‘arigatou’ for him.
“Yuto-kun, where will we go first?” Ryosuke ask when Yuto started the engine. He knows that the festival started 4 pm, and now is still early.
“Hmm..how about have fun on the beach first?” Yuto ask, and Ryosuke just nodded. Then they heading toward the beach. When Ryosuke can see the seashore, he opened the car window and feel the soft breeze touch his face. He smile peacefully at that. “Aahh this is so fresh.” He said. Yuto smile happily seeing the peaceful expression from Ryosuke.
After parking the car, Ryosuke immediately run toward the beach. He take off his shoe and run happily at the soft sand that touch his feet.
“Kawaii!!” Yuto exclaimed, and he runs toward the younger boy and gloomp at him. “Let’s go to the water Ryosuke!” then he drag the younger toward the water and splash it to him. They have fun on the beach for hours until noon.

“I heard that it will be fireworks at 8 pm.” Yuto said enthusiastically, and Ryosuke happy to hear that. They arrive at the festival, and decided to look around.
“WOW! Sugoi!” Ryosuke exclaimed happily when he saw a lot of stand there.
“Yuto-kun, I want to try that game!” Ryosuke said, and he drag the older boy toward the games stand. “I want to get that toys!” he exclaimed again while pointed at a big strawberry doll, and Yuto just chuckled at his childishness. Ryosuke try to shot the doll a few times, but he still failed, and when the last chance given to him, it’s still failed.
“Mou~ that’s so hard! I can’t get it easily.” Ryosuke pouted, and Yuto chuckled again.
“Let me try to get it for you.” Yuto said, and he try to shot that doll. He failed at first, but the doll fall successfully at the second shot. Yuto smiled widely, and then the stand man gives the doll to Yuto. The taller boy handed it to Ryosuke.
“Uwaaahh, kawaii! Hontou ni arigatou Yuto-kun!” Ryosuke said happily, and Yuto just nodded.
Unconsciously Yuto intertwined his hand on Ryosuke’s hand, that makes the younger boy blush. Ryosuke stopped for a moment, makes Yuto just looked at him confused. When Yuto realized that Ryosuke stopped because their intertwined hands, Yuto feel awkward at first, but he just pulled Ryosuke closer to him.
“So that you won’t get separated from me.” Yuto said casually, trying to calm down his beating heart. Ryosuke hang down his head, hiding his blushing cheek, and then he nodded his head. ‘cute’ Yuto thought, and he smiled because of that.
Then they continued to look around. They visited the stands one by one to try the games, foods, or just looked at the accessories that sell in there. At the 5 pm, there is a music show, and Yuto drag Ryosuke to see it. The band that performed really good, Yuto and Ryosuke really enjoyed the performance. When the clock strike almost 8 pm, Yuto then hold Ryosuke wrist again, pulled him to out from that crowded place.
“Yuto-kun, where will we going?” Ryosuke ask curious.
“Let’s find a better place to see the fireworks.” Yuto said. After some minutes walks among the crowd, finally Yuto stopped his pace. They stopped at beside the river, that less crowded than the previous place. There are a lot of couples in there, maybe they want a romantic atmosphere while watching the fireworks.
“From here, we will have a clear view.” Yuto said, and he sit at the bench, followed by Ryosuke.
“Un! Sugoi na~ Yuto-kun, you can find this perfect spot.” Ryosuke said happily, and he looked at the dark sky, waiting for the fireworks. They are just silence, sit beside each other, don’t need a conversation. Ryosuke still looked at the sky, and Yuto observing him.
Those angelic face, those smile, how Yuto want to see them for his entire life. Then, Yuto’s gaze down to Ryosuke’s red lips. Those soft lips, Yuto really want to touch it with his own lips. Yuto’s heart beating faster again, he really love the smaller guy beside him. His feeling is suffocating him, and he can’t resist his feeling again. He called the younger boy softly.
“Ryosuke..” Yuto said softly, and the younger looked at him with innocent face.
“Hmm..?” Ryosuke ask, looked at the older with curiousity.
“I Love you..” Yuto said, very softly and gentle, and staring at the younger with very loving eyes. Ryosuke is taken aback by Yuto’s confession. He can’t utter a single word.
A second later, a loud explosion can be heard, the sky become colorful because of the fireworks, but still Ryosuke can’t utter a word, he can’t express his feelings now. Yuto still staring at him lovingly, and slowly his face become closer, and close the gap between them. Ryosuke can feels Yuto’s soft lips on his, kiss him with very gentle way. Ryosuke shock at first, but he doesn’t complain. Instead, he like it, and kiss Yuto back.
They kiss for a minutes, until Ryosuke broke apart when they needed an air. Yuto smile warmly at him.
“I really love you Ryosuke. Although we are cousin, can you accept my love?” Yuto ask softly, and when Ryosuke nodded, Yuto can’t utter a single word because of his happiness. He just hugged the shorter boy, and feels happy when the younger snuggling in his embrace. They stayed on that position for some minutes until Ryosuke pulled apart.
“Yuto-kun..can I ask you a favor?” Ryosuke ask hesitantly, and Yuto nodded. “What is it?” Yuto ask.
“Maybe this is a bit selfish, but I ask this because I really love Yuto-kun. I am really grateful that you love someone like me. No matter happens to us, no matter how hard the situation for us, you will still love me. You won’t forget about me, and trust me, because I won’t forget you and will love you with all my heart. Can I ask you that?” Ryosuke said.
Yuto a bit confused by Ryosuke’s favor. After all it’s not hard to do, but the tone Ryosuke make, it seems like he say ‘goodbye’, but Yuto spat that bad thinking. He staring at his now lover lovingly, and nodded.
“Of course, Ryosuke. I will love you forever, and won’t forget you.” Yuto said, and the latter hug him again. Yuto smiling and hug him back. They feel grateful with each other presence.
“I love Yuto-kun.” Ryosuke said softly, and Yuto just tightened his hug.

However, it’s different with Yuto. The lanky boy come to Ryosuke’s apartment to pick up his lover now, but when no one opened the door, Yuto being confused. Opened the door with his spare key, Yuto entered the room only to meet with empty room. The lanky boy found a small letter on the table, the letter from Ryosuke that said he is run away, and doesn’t want them to search for him.
