Summary: Zero wants to further his investigation, but Karyu wants no part of it anymore.
Author's Notes: I guess I wish I wrote Uruha with more attitude. What do you think?
Zero walks over to Karyu by the refreshment table and smiles at him brightly. The guitarist pauses his snacking and looks at the other, sighing.
“What do you want this time?” he asks in slight annoyance, munching on some chips.
“We have to go back,” Zero says excitedly.
“Back? Back where?”
The bassist glances around and looks at Karyu. “You know where.”
“Oh…” he responds and his eyes light up once he remembers what Zero’s talking about. “Ooh~! Hell no! I’m not going back there.”
“But we have to~”
“Do it by yourself. I’m still trying to get the image of Hizumi sucking face with another man out my head,” he shudders a bit at the thought.
“That was three days ago and it wasn’t that bad. He could’ve been sucking something else.”
Karyu makes a face of disgust and responds, “Do you want me to vomit on you, Zero?”
“Fine, I’ll go by myself,” he says in defeat and walks off.

Zero shoves his hands in his pockets as he enters the strip club and looks around the club. He notices the crowd was smaller than the last time he was there and heads to the bar. He glances back, orders a drink, and makes a disapproving face at the current dancer on stage.
He accepts his drink, takes a sip, and asks the bartender, “When’s Strawberry Swirl performing?”
The bartender cleans off a glass, puts it aside, and answers, “Strawberry Swirl only performs on the weekend.”
“Oh, but doesn’t he work at another club as well?”
“He does. It’s not too far from here. A women’s strip club.”
Zero sips his drink and a raises a curious brow. “He dances there too?”
“Mm…I don’t think so. I’m not sure what he does there. I’ve never been there.”
The bassist nods, finishes up his drink, and pays the bartender, giving him some extra tip money. “Thank you,” he says, heading out the club.
The bartender smiles at the generous tip and replies, “No. Thank you, sir~”
Zero sighs to himself as he heads toward the club the bartender informed him about. He glances around the neighborhood, thinking to himself.
‘I wonder if Hizumi knows he’s in another club. I bet he does since he was at the strip club. I hope I don’t get caught there. I don’t think I can handle that evil glare again.’
Approaching the female strip club, the bassist takes a deep breath and enters. He looks around, noticing a decent crowd enjoying themselves, and sees a fairly muscular European looking man entertaining the women.
‘This is an odd place for someone like Uruha to work at, but him being a dancing was surprising.’
Zero heads toward the bar and glances at the stage one more time, slightly expecting the blonde to make a big entrance. He sits on an empty stool and smiles a bit at a couple women walking by.
“What can I get for you?” a familiar voice asks.
The bassist turns his head to order and freezes at the sight of the very man he thought would be performing on stage again. “U-uruha,” he stammers a bit.
“Oh, great, you found me,” the blonde groans a bit, “Did Hizumi tell you I was here?”
“Nope. I didn’t think you’d be a bartender,” Zero smirks a bit.
Uruha rolls his eyes and mumbles, “As long as you don’t know my other job.”
“You mean ‘the royal highness Strawberry Swirl’.”
“Damn,” he grumbles and looks at the other. “So, what can I get you?”
“Hmm…give me something strong,” Zero smiles.
Uruha mixes up a drink for him, slides the glass over, and asks, “Are you leaving after that?”
“Nope, I still have to talk to you some more.”
“About what?”
“About your relationship with my band mate.”
“Why?” he raises a brow.
“Because I’m curious,” he says, taking a sip, “And I know you guys are more than friends.”
“Just because you caught us kissing doesn’t mean anything.”
“Oh, but I saw you make out with him after your show. I thought you guys forgot how to breathe. And~ there was that one night you guys decided to go all night.”
Uruha’s eyes widen in slight anger and embarrassment. “I can’t believe Hizumi told you about that,” he says in disbelief.
“He didn’t~” the bassist smirks, sipping at his drink.
“Then how did you find out?”
“You don’t want to know. Trust me.”
The blonde groans softly, walks off to serve another customer, and comes back to Zero, leaning in some. “Since it’s obvious we’re not just friends, I’ll just make it clear that he and I are dating. It’s nothing serious because of his schedule and a bit of my own, but that’s all I’m saying,” Uruha says.
“So, that show of you masturbating…can I get it recorded on a tape?” Zero jokes, finishing up the alcohol in his glass.
“You’re such a bastard,” he murmurs.
“I was only kidding.”
“You want another glass.”
“Actually, how about you let me treat you to a meal after you shift.”
“What if I refuse?”
“Then, you’re gonna be seeing me an awful lot.”
Uruha groans softly and asks, “Will you butt out my relationship with Hizumi?”
Zero smiles at him and replies, “I promise I’ll stay out of your relationship with him.”
“Then…I guess I’ll go. One less meal to cook.”
