Summary: Zero stops by Karyu's apartment and updates him on his new relationship.
Author's Notes: Karyu's character never fails to amuse me.
Zero knocks on the door and waits for someone to answer. He rocks on his heels, glances off at a woman and her child carrying grocery bags into their apartment, and hears the door open. He steps aside as a brunette woman hurries out the apartment and steps in, slipping his shoes off. He notices the shirtless guitarist slouched down on the couch, smoking casually. He closes the door and says with a light chuckle, “I guess I came at a bad time.”
The taller man exhales a cloud of smoke, sits up, and stubs out the cancer stick as he replies, “Not at all.”
“Oh, then who was that?”
“Just someone I met last night. What brings you here?” he asks, ruffling his messy brown locks.
“Just thought I’d tell you how great things are with Uruha,” Zero says with an almost bragging tone. He joins his band mate on the couch and smiles. “Told you I could do it.”
“Heh…I never said you couldn’t, just thought you shouldn’t. Anyway, does Hizumi know you’re dating his ex?”
Zero laughs a little and says, “Of course not.”
“Ah, well, I don’t want to be there when he finds out.”
“He won’t find out, especially since they’re not talking to each other.”
“Nonetheless, Zero, I’m still not looking forward to it,” Karyu states, getting up from the couch and wandering off to the kitchen. He gets a couple bottles of beer, brings them ove rot his band mate, and takes his seat back. “So, what have you guys been doing?”
Zero takes a sip and answers, “Just hanging out. We went on a date yesterday and tended to each other’s sexual needs.”
The guitarist chokes a little from the last statement and coughs.
“Oh, come on~ You knew we were doing it since I told you about the first time.”
“Yeah, I know, but I’d rather not have the sick mental image of my band mate screwing another guy,” he reminds, drinking some.
“Maybe you should learn to get over it, because I’m gonna be banging Uruha for a long time, especially on the bus,” the bassist states with a smirk.
“Damn it, Zero! Don’t make me kick your sex addicted ass out,” he says, narrowing his eyes at the other.
Zero laughs a little more, drinks some, and jumps a bit from the sudden vibration of his cell phone. He takes it out and checks the text message sent to him. He sighs softly, puts his beer on the table, and stands up. “Well, it looks like I have to go.”
“Go? What? Did the stripper summon you to do something?”
“Ha ha You’re so funny, Karyu,” he says in a mocking manner, “He just wants me to pick up a few things.”
“Oh, so he’s still using up your money?” Karyu teases, casually drinking.
“Just because I had to pay for sex before…and a pile of expensive clothes,” he mumbles the last part, then firmly states, “Does not mean he’s using me.”
“Sounds like it. Maybe you should take some caution around him. You are a celebrity and sometimes people will take advantage of your public status.”
“Whatever. He’s not like that. I’m positive of that.”
“Oh, because he possibly didn’t use Hizumi for that reason, you think you’re safe? Remember, Zero, you and Hizumi aren’t the same and you are more likely to become a victim of people like Uruha. A user,” he warns.
Zero shrugs, gets his shoes on, and says, “I’ll prove you wrong, Karyu, Once we reach our two month anniversary, you’ll see that Uruha is not a leech.” He leaves the apartment and heads off to the store.

Zero opens the door, pushing it with his hip, and carries several bags of groceries into the blonde’s home. “I got everything you wanted, Uruha~” he calls out, bringing the bags to the kitchen table. He starts putting away the contents of the bags and smiles a bit at the other.
“Where’d you go, honey?” he asks softly, watching the other from the entrance of the room in an oversized shirt.
“Ah, I went to visit Karyu for a while and before that I had to work on some things with Tsukasa,” he answers, walking over to the blonde and leaning to kiss his cheek.
Uruha moves away and looks at the bassist seriously. “You’re really close to Karyu-san, aren’t you?” he asks seriously.
“Yeah, he’s like my best friend,” Zero answers, resuming putting the groceries away.
“Were you ever attracted to him?”
“Ah, a little, but I would never ruin our friendship by dating him or even sleeping with him,” he laughs a bit at the thought.
“Do you think he’s more attractive than me?”
The bassist slides a couple boxes of cereal in the cabinet and looks at Uruha. “Of course not. What gave you that idea?”
“Well, you’re always with him when I need you. I just thought you might like him more than me,” Uruha says softly with a little pout.
Zero walks over to the blonde, wraps his arms around him, and kisses him softly. “I could never like anyone more than you, Uruha. Karyu is just my best friend and my band mate, so you have to understand that I need to be around him sometimes.”
“Zero,” he says softly, looking at him, “I want you to move in with me. Being with you is the best thing I’ve ever done.”
The bassist smiles and hugs him gently, then kisses his forehead. “I would love to move in with you, baby.”
“Good, because it’s nice to come home to someone who wants me just as much,” he says with a smile, snuggling into him.
