~*****~

Today wasn’t all that special really. Just another day, a Monday to be exact. Not his favorite by choice but then again…when did anyone have a choice on the day they were born on?

Kaz laid in bed, dressed in his lose-fitting pajamas not at all wanting to move from his bed, even if the smell of the breakfast Hyde was making was tempting.

The guitarist could hear Ju-ken and Arimatsu playing on the Play Station Ju-ken had brought on their World Tour as Jin quietly played on his portable keyboard, the occasional curse word could be heard in his less than silent hotel room.

And Kaz smiled. It was nice. This peace, after four live concerts in just eleven days, jumping from one city to another, one country to another, this peace and normalcy was comforting.

The birthday boy turned on his bed, his black and blond streaked hair wild and more unkempt than it looked, he didn’t care. Today was his day, he’d spend it sleeping and eating what he wanted later on. Though somewhere in the back of his mind he could hear his manager telling him to work off the extra pounds later later on.

Kaz scoffed and closed his eyes, and just before his mind completely drifted off into unconsciousness the door to his room slammed open.

“KAZ!” Hyde… “get your ass up now! I made breakfast!”

“Haido can’t you see I’m trying to sleep here.” He murmured into his pillow, not needing to open his eyes to see the look on the other Vamps face.

“Get up Kaz! Old men can’t stay in bed too long, they’ll get wrinkly!” the blond forty-one year old complained jumping onto the bed with his guitarist.

“You’re a year younger, though mentally I’m not so sure.”

“Hey!” Hyde pouted as he fell back onto the bed and curled up to the black haired man. “Kaz…. Come on get up!”

“Leave me alone Haido, it’s my birthday.” The forty-two year old murmured under his sheets, trying his hardest to ignore the man behind him. Suddenly, he noticed the hotel rooms went quiet and against his better judgment, the guitarist looked up and instantly met with Ju-ken’s face and the rest of VAMPS.

“Gah!”

“Hey he’s awake!” the bassist grinned as he too decided to annoy Kaz and jump on the man’s bed, joining Hyde.

“GAH! Damn it! Ju-ken! Haido get the hell off of me!” Kaz yelled as he tried to wriggle out of both the men’s heavy bodies on him. This was not how he saw his birthday being spent at all!

“If you promise to get your ass out of bed, we’ll get off,” Hyde said  smiling to Ju-ken and to Arimatsu and Jin as they watched from the doorway, both men turning to leave.

“Say it Kaz!” Ju-ken laughed as he weighted himself down even heavier onto the smaller man. “I can’t hear you!”

“Alright! I’ll get up now get the hell off!” the birthday boy grumbled as the heaviness on him was released as he tried to sit up in his bed.

Hyde looked to Ju-ken with a knowing gaze and a nod, with a wink the bassist left the two faces of VAMPS and headed out to where Arimatsu and Jin were. It was all part of the plan after all.

“Alright Kaz, I’ve got what we’re going to do today. Eat your breakfast and get ready okay?” the blond man asked, putting a hand on his friend’s leg with hopeful brown eyes. Kaz sighed, looks like I’m not getting back to sleep any time now….

“Yeah Haido,” he answered and the singer jumped up and out of the room, leaving the birthday boy to mourn over his less than perfect day so far.

~*****~

Opening his room door, dressed in casual clothes Kaz saw that everyone had left except Hyde, who was currently in the kitchen of their hotel room by the stove. The smell of a Japanese breakfast, though he wouldn’t say it, was making his mouth water and the guitarist headed over to the other VAMP.

Placing himself into a chair, he began to eat,

“Where is everyone?”

“I sent them out today,”

“But tomorrow we have that live,” Kaz questioned. Even if today was his birthday, he knew he’d have to practice like crazy, diet like crazy and workout like mad.

“Yeah, and we’ll still have a live tomorrow but you won’t have a birthday until next year! I’ve got something for you, don’t worry Kaz,” Hyde turned and smiled, placing the last of their breakfast onto the table. Sitting himself down, Kaz couldn’t help but get curious.

Working with Hyde for all these years, if anything he’s learned that Hyde never means what he says. Especially if he’s in one of his ‘childish moods’ anything could happen. With that Kaz glanced around the hotel room, outside the large window looking out towards Barcelona, Spain.

“What are you looking at?”

“Hmm? Nothing. It’s just a beautiful view, very different from New York.”

“Yeah. Very different from the U.S in general,” Hyde commented, eating hungrily into his own food, when he pointed at Kaz’s food with his chopsticks and a half full cheek filled with food, “eat your breakfast before it gets cold!”

“Yes mother,” the guitarist rolled his eyes as he tried to fight off a smile. When suddenly he hears a bing sound coming from Hyde’s computer. “Whose that?”

“Damn it! They weren’t suppose to be this early!” Hyde curses as he runs to the computer in the living room, underneath all of their crap and junk from the night before.

Kaz turns back in his seat and decides against peeping over his friend’s shoulder, he for one respects ‘personal space.’ That is until Hyde yells at him in his hyper voice, hoarse but excited. Oh boy

Kaz finished off his breakfast and heads into the living room after putting away his dishes, “what is it Haido?”

“I want you to meet some friends of mine,” is all the younger man says as he types something into his laptop,

“I don’t want to meet any more of your odd friends Haido, the last one thought I was going to punch him because he thought I looked like a mean guy!”

“And he apologized after saying you were cute! Now stop being a baby and get over here. These guys are different,” Hyde promised as he moved over on the couch for the black haired man to sit on, never letting his skeptical look off his face.

Sitting himself into the couch beside Hyde, Kaz looked to the blank computer screen.

“Haido?”

“Kaz, do you know why I keep VAMPS and Laruku away from each other?”

“Huh?” he looked to his friend. Hyde wore a serious face, his dark brown eyes darker against his own black orbs and Kaz has no idea how to respond. He really has no idea why Hyde never bothered to put L’Arc and VAMPS together, for even a meeting between fellow musicians sharing the same vocalist.

But now, that he has time to think on it….Kaz couldn’t help but feel a bit left out.

Hyde had been friends with his band mates for almost twenty years, they’ve been through half their life spans together. And he….he had only known Hyde for not long at all, just a few years at most.

Before they formed VAMPS, Kaz had met the rest of L’Arc~en~Ciel for a brief moment before Hyde took him away, that was back then when Hyde hired him to work with him for his solo projects…and even now.

Year later, when they’ve been a group for two almost three years. When their on their first world tour! Kaz has still yet to meet Tetsuya, Yukihiro and Ken.

“I don’t know Haido,” the black haired man answers fully, looking to his bedroom when he feels Hyde grin. He looks at the blond,

“I kept them away because I never had a reason to bring them together, but now I do.”

“What?”

“Kaz, I’d like you to meet my best friends Tet-chan, Yukkie and Ken,” flipping the web cam on his computer to on, three eager faces suddenly appeared in front of Kaz. And he was left breathless.

~*****~

“Happy birthday Kaz!” the three men on the other side of the world yelled into the camera, each one smiling at the shocked guitarist.

“What- is this?”

“Haido told us it was your birthday today! So he wanted us all to share it with you!” Tetsuya answered as Ken leaned on him,

“You’ve been taking care of our Haido, we wanted to say thank you.”

“So thank you,” Yukkie finished before Ken could, earning him a pouting glare as he easily avoided by smiling at the said man.

“Haido?” Kaz looked to see his partner smiling at him with his impish grin and light colored brown eyes,

“Happy birthday Kaz! I couldn’t bring them here and I wasn’t going to take us back home just for a few hours so I thought of this! Web cam communication!” he beamed proudly, when he heard Ken scoff.

“Don’t be so proud Haido, it’s just a little web cam,”

“Shut up Ken!” Hyde glared at his other guitarist, as the two glared at each other lightly. An air of familiarity and nostalgia surrounding them, when their dear Leader broke in.

“If you guys are done glaring at each other, can we get back to Kaz-san? It’s his birthday today after all,” Tetsuya shook his head, his wild light chestnut hair moving with his head. “Sorry for them Kaz-san, they’re always like this when they see each other after a long time.”

“Kaz, you can call me Kaz,” the birthday boy said smiling, trying to hide it with a turn of his head.

“Kaz then! It’s great to finally meet you, Haido has told us so much about you!”

“And he’s told me about you all too, but only a little,” he saw Tetsuya nod his head and answer as he raised his brow towards his best friend.

“Haido is private kind of guy,”

“I’ve noticed, but he’s not very private about other things,” Kaz spoke truthfully as he glanced at his fellow VAMP.

“Yeah, that’s normal for Haido too,” Yukkie spoke up as the bassist nodded once more,

“Has he tried to bite you yet?” Ken asked suddenly, when Kaz nodded, the smoker laughed.

“That means you’re a close friend to him, treat him well got that?” Ken said, lightly glaring at the other guitarist as Kaz met his gaze.

“I’m right here you know!” the person of their topic spoke up suddenly, earning eight pairs of eyes onto him. “Stop talking about me like I’m not here,”

“Oh stop pouting Haido,” Tetsuya reprimanded the other forty-one year old as if he were a child who didn’t get what he wanted.

And as Hyde responded and the two bickered, bringing in Yukihiro and Ken, Kaz couldn’t help but feel happy. Content.

Though it wasn’t what he had originally planned for a birthday, Kaz found he couldn’t complain. VAMPS and L’Arc~en~Ciel were finally beginning to mend the gap between them.

~*****~

“So did you like them?” Hyde asked eagerly as he closed his computer,

“Huh? Yeah, thanks Haido.” Kaz smiled. He really did like them, he hadn’t expected them to be so real and funny. Just like a group of big kids.

“You know today isn’t over yet,” the blond man stated when he saw that his friend was heading back into his room. The black haired man looked at him,

“I was going to get my guitar and practice,”

“No practicing on your birthday,”

“But-”

“Kaz.” Hyde stood up and lightly glared at the birthday boy. “No practicing,”

“I’m going to look like an idiot when we perform tomorrow Haido,”

“And you’ll look like an idiot now if you do, I’ve still got other stuff planned out!” putting his hands on his hips, Kaz couldn’t help but think back to what Tetsuya had told him about how Hyde was often mistaken for a woman back when they first started out.

And Kaz found a smile breaking out on his face, earning him a glare from his partner.

“What’s so funny?”

“Nothing, but really Haido I don’t see how not--” before he could finish his sentence however, the door to their hotel room opened and in came the rest of VAMPS.

“We’re back!! And we brought gifts!!” Ju-ken exclaimed as Arimatsu placed a rather large box on the table followed by Jin with bags of things. And before Kaz had time to do anything else other than stare, the blinds of their window were closed and all the lights went off.

“What, you guys!”

“Stop whining birthday boy!” Ju-ken rallied as a small glow began to filter out the darkness, two candles with the numbers four and two were placed and lit onto a cake and then Hyde began to sing.

Ju-ken and Arimatsu followed as Jin brought out his portable keyboard from where he left it this morning and played.

“Blow out the candles Kaz!”

“Don’t forget to make a wish!” Ju-ken laughed when the lights went on and Hyde leaned on the black haired man, and Kaz blew out his candles with a smile he no longer felt like hiding.

“Thanks guys.”
