He stared hard at the two men in front of him. Beyond shocked that they were here, in the same town as him and then, it made him wonder who else was there. With that thought, he looked around, spotting no other familiar face. He glared once more at the two men, both staring at him with just as much shock.
Swallowing, he repeated firmly, “What are you doing here?”
“Looking for you,” Saga finally found his voice, going towards the blonde and squeezing the shoulder firmly. “Damn, it’s good to see you.”
Shrugging the hand off, he looked to Uruha and back to Saga, “is it just you two?”
“No,” Uruha shrugged, “Ruki’s here too. We wouldn’t have come looking for you hadn’t it been for him.”
“Where is he,” Reita growled, fists clenching tightly.
“He’s resting up,” Saga answered slowly, inspecting the blonde’s face. “He’s barely ever slept, so-”
Before either could react, Reita had shoved past them both and went straight towards the room Ruki was currently occupying. Ignoring the calls of Uruha and Saga; he felt rage, hate and just so many other emotions. He felt absolutely dizzy from what he felt.
Storming into the room, ready to pummel the other; he suddenly stopped. Finding the brunette was sleeping soundly on the bed, all his anger and hate just fizzled out. Shoulders dropping, not understanding; he fell against the door.
Feeling a whirlwind of confusion just erupt inside of him. He hated that they came looking for him; that Ruki had come after him, but at the same time, it made him feel needed. Growling, he gripped his head, so confused of what he felt. This wasn’t how he had hoped things would turn out.
“Reita,” he heard Saga behind him, “c’mon. You two can talk in the morning.”
“Just,” shutting his eyes and taking a breath, “just leave me the hell alone for a moment.”
“Reita, he’s not the only one who wants you back,” Uruha hissed, trying to keep his voice low. Rolling his eyes, he grabbed his friend by the arm, pulled him out and shut the room door, “we all want you to come back Reita; not just him.”
“No, I can’t, I-”
“We all know the real reason why you left,” the other man grimaced, “Ruki told us.”
Flinching, he looked at them stunned, slowly he asked, “Does Kai know too?”
“All of us,” the other blonde confirmed with a heavy sigh; he laughed, “yeah, it’s a real crazy little love triangle you guys got going on, but… we’re all adults. I think we’re more than capable of handling this like adults.”
“Why run?” Saga asked suddenly.
Snorting at the question, he turned and walked away from them. He was exhausted with the search and all he wanted to do was just sleep. This was something that could definitely wait for the morning, just too mentally exhausted to answer questions. Leaving the other two, entering his own room, ridding himself of his clothes, he collapsed on the bed and fell asleep immediately.
Rolling over onto his stomach, feeling more rested than in a long time, Ruki stared at the gritty floor of his room. Yawning, he slowly sat up, got to his feet and went to the adjoining bathroom. Staring at his reflection, even with the sleep, he still had black bags beneath his eyes.
Leaning against the sink, he faintly heard someone knocking o his door. Huffing, he went to answer, expecting Saga or Uruha; only for it to be J. Blinking, he questioned softly, “Is there something I can help you with?”
“I was wondering if you’d like to go for a walk,” he shrugged.
Smiling, he shook his head, “no that’s fine. My friends and I will be heading out soon.”
“Its part of what I’d like to talk to you about,” the man smiled, giving a nod of his head, “please, I’d appreciate the company.”
Releasing a soft breath, he nodded, “let me get dressed.”
“Meet me by the gate when you’re ready,” J gave another nod of his head, walking off.
Frowning at the back of the man, Ruki suddenly decided there was something he didn’t like about the other; he just wasn’t sure what that was. Shutting the door, he rushed back to the bathroom, giving himself a quick sponge bath and dressed in yesterday’s clothes. Lacing up his boots, someone else knocked.
Huffing, he called, “come in.”
Uruha poked his head in with a smile, “I need to tell you something and… it might be a good idea to-”
“Not right now, Uru,” he sighed, getting up; grabbing his handgun and his crossbow. “I’m going out with J; I’ll be back in a bit and then we’ll head out.”
“Wait, Ruki, that’s-”
“Sorry, I got to go,” Ruki ran out of the room, running towards the gate.
“Did you tell him?” the other man walked in.
“No,” sitting on the edge of the bed, “he ran off before I could tell him. He’s going outside of town with J.”
“There’s something I don’t like about him,” Saga hummed, looking towards the gate.
“You and me both,” Uruha rubbed his neck.
Walking ahead of the man, not caring where they were supposed to be going, Ruki led his hand over the tall wheat grass. Amazed by how a settlement of at least sixty people were able to survive. How they were able to grow many types of produce.
Slowly, he turned around to face the man, staring at the other hard. Going to a fallen tree and sitting, he tilted his head questioningly, “so, why did you want to take a walk with me?”
J smiled at the brunette, walking around the seated man.
Groaning softly, Reita rolled over onto his back. Staring up at the dirtied ceiling, before sitting up and getting himself dressed. He needed to talk with Ruki. He wasn’t sure what he’d say or the best way to react, but it needed to be done.
Pulling his shirt over his head as he stepped out of his room, he immediately spotted Uruha and Saga talking animatedly with Emily. Cringing slightly, he took a deep breath and went towards the two men and woman.
“Where’s Ruki?” the blonde marine questioned avoiding the eyes of his ex-wife.
Uruha looked to Saga, shrugging, “he and J left for a walk.”
Brows furrowing, he asked again, “how long ago did they leave?”
“Uh-Like twenty minutes ago,” Saga answered, beginning to feel anxious.
“Damn it,” he hissed, turning on his heels and rushing back to his room. Going through his belongings and grabbing his rifle and machete.
Running back out, he went to the gates, Saga and Uruha waiting for him. “What’s going on Reita? Where are you going?”
“I’m going after them,” he snapped, looking to the men atop the gate and giving a wave his hand. The men nodding and quickly opening the gates, he looked back to Saga, “get your things gathered up; we leave as soon as I bring Ruki back.”
“What the hell Reita!” Saga shouted, grabbing Reita by the arm, “what the hell is going on?”
“I just don’t want Ruki to be left alone with that ass,” pulling his arm harshly out of the grip and running through the gates.
“So, it only started out with twenty of you?” Ruki questioned surprised, indulged in the history of how the town was founded. “And from there, you welcomed other travelers in?”
“Yes,” the man nodded, “we all have our own way of holding our weight around here. Me, I’m an electrician and plumber; it’s how we’ve got running water and light.”
“I see you use your occupations to an advantage.”
“Exactly,” he nodded, staring down at the younger, “So, why are you three looking for your friend?”
“Because he’s our friend,” Ruk answered starkly, moving away slightly.
J chuckled, sitting beside the brunette, “there’s no other reason?”
Looking up quickly, biting on his bottom lip, he shrugged, “he’s got a brother and-we all think of one another as family.”
“Noble thing to say,” the elder hummed, leaning into Ruki’s space slightly.
Noticing how close the other got, brown eyes flittered to the lips of the man, before back to the dark intense eyes. And slowly, the man leaned in closer. Eyes trained solely on the other pair and unconsciously, Ruki began to lean towards the man.
His breathing coming out in short, shallow puffs; eyes sliding shut as their lips connected. The small bit connection of lips felt wrong to him. Even with that thought, he forced himself to enjoy it. He was in need of some type of physical contact; distraction from everything.
His body was lacking in attention, because immediately, he was aroused and more than ready. He knew he should be worried about he thought of the man having a girlfriend or wife, but, he quite frankly didn’t care. All he cared about was getting some attention out of this.
Kiss breaking, Ruki hung onto the shoulders as he was picked up and settled in the field. Their lips reconnecting, they blindingly began to try and undress each other. So lost, they didn’t hear someone coming at them; not knowing another presence until J was suddenly torn off of Ruki and tossed to the ground.
Scrambling in surprise, the brunette shouted, “what the fuck! Who the f-Reita?”
“What the hell are you doing here?” the blonde growled, going and yanking the younger off the ground harshly. Immediately looking the other over, relieved to see no scratched or marks, “you are alright?”
“I’m fine,” he pushed the hands away, “I’m fine. Noth-Nothing happened.”
“That didn’t look like nothing,” he sneered, taking Ruki by the arm and tugging him through the trees.
Yanking his arms out of the hold, wincing at the pain, Ruki rolled his eyes, “what do you care if that was nothing? I can do whatever the fuck I want, alright. I’m not your baby brother.”
Narrowing his eyes at the defiant man, Reita got right in the other’s face, “J is a taken man. He has a wife and a son; a family that he doesn’t deserve, because he likes to fuck around. It may not mean ‘nothing’ to you, but to someone else, that means something.”
Swallowing, he looked down ashamed. Feeling his hand being taken again, he let himself be led back to the town. Keeping his head lowered as they walked through the gates, Saga and Uruha staring him worriedly and confused. He was unable to meet their eyes, because he felt like everyone knew what nearly happened.
“Get your shit,” Reita snapped, shoving the brunette into his room. “We’re leaving.”
Obediently doing what he was told, he quickly gathered his things. Stuffing it all back into his pack, Ruki suddenly stopped. He couldn’t go back. He couldn’t face Kai; it didn’t matter if he brought Reita back, he couldn’t face the other.
What if him going back caused a rift between the two?
Biting his lip, he looked towards the door. No, he couldn’t go back. He couldn’t risk that happening; because if it put a rift between Kai and Reita, it would put a rift between the rest of the group. He couldn’t go back with them.
Turning to his bag, staring at the items in hand; he can’t go back. Jumping when someone suddenly knocked on his door, he called, “yeah, c’mon on in.”
“Ruki,” he heard J.
Whirling around to face the man, he shook his head, gaping slightly, “I-I didn’t mean to… to lead you on like that.”
“So, you and Reita know each other,” he cocked a brow interested.
“Yes,” he whispered, shrugging. Averting his eyes, he snorted, “yeah, but… this is the end of the line for us. I’m not going back with them.”
“Stay here then,” J offered, leaning against the doorframe. “You’re more than welcomed to stay.”
Shaking his head, quickly stuffing more of his things into the bag, he sighed, “no; I’m much better on my own. I managed to stay alive on my own since the day of the break out, so, I’m fine with it just being me.”
“It’s dangerous to be on your own,” the elder frowned.
“That’s a risk I’m willing to take,” he smiled at the man, zipping his bag up.
“Well then, stay one more night,” J said offhandedly.
“No,” Reita suddenly walked in, “I think we’ve over stayed our welcome. Let’s go Ruki.”
The brunette looked up at the man; Reita was staring at him expectantly and then, he shook his head, “I can’t.”
Blinking in surprise, the ex marine restrained from shouting, “why can’t you? You came all the way here to find me, you’ve found me; now let’s go.”
Shaking his head again, dropping his bag to the ground, “I can’t go back with you guys.”
Shoulders tensing with the statement, Reita growled, “Let’s go.”
“No,” Ruki snapped, “I’m not going with you guys.”
“Damn it Ruki,” snarling, he stormed into the room; yanked the bag off the floor and gripped the brunette tightly. “If I have to drag you back kicking and screaming, then I will. Now let’s go.”
“I’m not going back,” he yelled shoving the blonde back. “I’m not going. J,” he looked to the man who watched, “I’ll stay one more night and then, I’m gone.”
“Alright,” he nodded, looking to Reita with a small smirk and left.
“What the hell is your fucking problem?” the blonde roared, shoving Ruki back.
“Look,” he shoved the man back, putting as much distance between them, “I’m not going back with you guys. I sure and the hell am not staying here. Just respect my fucking decision of wanting to be out there on my own.”
Jaw and shoulders tightening, Reita snarled, “fine. I don’t fucking care! You do whatever the fuck you want; we’re leaving.”
Smiling sadly at the blonde, he nodded, “it was nice knowing you guys; take care.”
Staring at the brunette for a small amount of time, he turned and walked out. Unable to bring himself to say anything, all he felt was anger. Going towards the gate, finding Saga and Uruha waiting; he suddenly decided they were staying.
He stopped with a shake of his head, “we can’t leave.”
“What do mean we can’t leave?”
Uruha looked Reita and back at him, “where’s-”
“Ruki’s not coming with us,” he cut the other blonde off.
“Why the hell not,” Saga shouted, catching the attention of everyone one else. He lowered his voice, all them moving off to the side, “why isn’t he coming with us? Why and when the hell did he just decide he’s not coming?”
“I don’t know,” shaking his head again, turning around, “all he said was ‘he can’t’,”
“That’s not a good enough of fucking explanation,” the man hissed, walking around Reita, “If we have to drag his ass back, then we’ll drag his ass back.”
“Saga wait,” he went after and grabbing him, “just let him have a moment to think it over. He’s just being irrational about-whatever the hell this is.”
“Fine,” sighing, Saga looked to the two blondes, “but, we are leaving in the morning; with or without him.”
“Deal,” Reita resigned himself, looking back towards the room, seeing Ruki coming out.
Later that night, it was a celebration of sorts. A newly married couple having completed their vows and now, the entire town was gathered for a large dinner. Everyone getting drunk on their own brewed alcohol, which Reita had found extremely strong; it made him wonder how nobody had died from the potent drink.
Walking around, he watched as people danced, laughed and just enjoyed themselves. Seeing all the festivities made him miss being with his brother and the others.
“Reita,” Emily came walking towards the blonde, holding two mugs. She offered one towards her ex-husband, “What are you doing all by your lonesome self?”
Staring at the woman, he again noticed he felt no type of joy seeing her. He briefly wondered if he ever truly loved her like he thought. Or if it was something he had merely convinced himself.
Suddenly, she was leaned against him, nuzzling his chest. Feeling how wrong it was, he took her gently by the shoulders and held her away. The way she looked at him, he knew he should be as surprised as she was; but he wasn’t. Reaching out and brushing a few strands from her forehead, he shook his head and walked away.
“Reita?” she called.
Walking anywhere, he handed the mug off to a staggering man. Looking around, he spotted Ruki talking with a group of people; all of them laughing at something he had said. It didn’t take a genius to see that the brunette was more than a little tipsy.
Leaning against the building, he watched him from far off. Just staring and noticing small details of the man, the way he looked down every time he smiled or giggled. The way he played with his fingers or hands, anything to keep him occupied.
Suddenly, Reita watched as J walked to the man and slung an arm around the shoulders. Hands clenching into fists, he pushed off the wall as the man began to lead the other off, away from people. Quickening his steps, he quickly caught up with the two.
Taking Ruki by the arm, he glared at J, “I’ll take it from here; I think your wife’s looking for you.”
The man scowled, releasing Ruki slowly. Turning on his heels and walking off, leaving them.
Sighing, he looked at the side of the brunette’s face. The other wouldn’t even glance at him; licking his lips, he led the brunette back to his room. Fumbling with the body and door handle wasn’t as easy as he thought it would be, but he did manage.
Instead of walking Ruki from the door to the bed, he picked up the lighter body and took that last several steps. Kneeling on the edge of the bed, he set the other down carefully. Leaning back slightly as the younger hummed in delight, snuggling into the pillow, something in Reita snapped.
Merely letting his body reacts on its own; he hovered over Ruki and then, kissed him full on the lips. Half expecting to be shoved away, only to have the action reciprocated. A soft groan escaped him, tilting his head to deepen the kiss, the other’s mouth opening automatically; his tongue slipped in and tasting Ruki.
The brunette moaned loudly. Body tilting upwards into Reita’s hands desperately began to remove clothes; bodies desperate for naked contact. He sat up, pulling his shirt over his head and throwing it off somewhere, Ruki let out another moan as the mouth moved to his chest.
Being pushed back onto the mattress, mouths molding perfectly; Ruki felt along the toned chest and stomach. Memorizing every bit of flesh, every small abrasion as his fingers slid down to the top of the pants. Deftly undoing the belt, the button and zipper; pushing the clothing off slender hips.
Moving his kisses to the slender neck, Reita sucked on every bit of flesh. Having only fantasized about being able to touch and taste Ruki like this. Only his imagination didn’t do this moment any justice, it was far better than anything. The emotions that he felt made this all a hundred times finer.
Ridding of their last bit of clothing, the blonde quickly spat into his hand; slipping a finger into the entrance and began to prep the other. All the while he prepped the brunette, they kissed lewdly. It easily keeping the other focused on something else entirely as he was stretched.
Thinking it was enough, Reita situated himself between the legs and thrust into the body. Ruki inhaling sharply at the intrusion, his nails dug into the shoulders of the blonde. Stilling for a moment, catching his breath, the elder stared down in the face of the other. Leaning in for one more kiss, he began to move slowly.
The sounds that escaped Ruki were the driving force for Reita. The moans, gasps his only encouragement to keep going. The way he clung to him, desperate; not wanting to let go.
“Reita,” he gasped, tightening his hold on the body.
Lifting his head, he kissed him again. Swallowing the pleasured moans, as he kept moving into the body wantonly; groaning as their tongues wrestled. He quickened the movement of his hips; thrust becoming shallow and fast.
Ruki’s voice grew in volume; his legs came around the strong waist, tightening. Managing his eyes opened, he gazed up into the face of Reita. Reaching up and cupping the face of the man, their eyes locking in an intense stare. Tilting his head to capture lips once more, he keened into the mouth as his prostate was struck sweetly.
“Ruki,” the blonde groaned, nuzzling the sweaty neck; placing kisses everywhere he could reach.
Stilling, he gripped Ruki by the back of his neck, kissing him harshly. Teeth clacking slightly and some biting, he pulled out and rammed back in the body, the brunette’s head falling back with a loud pleasured cry.
Body’s slick with sweat Reita continued to move into the other and suddenly, rolling them over; growling as Ruki moved atop of him fast. Lying back against the bed, the blonde wondered what he was thinking and then, he wondered why he didn’t claim Ruki sooner.
Rolling back over, reaching between their bodies, he grasped Ruki’s neglected arousal. Stroking him in time with his movements; stimulating the man more as he cried out louder. The man was close to his climax, he began to sweat more, his eyes squeezed tighter and goose bumps arose all over the smooth flesh.
Panting heavily, Ruki moaned loudly. Reaching down and helping Reita guide him to his orgasm. Their hands were quick and soon, he reached his end; shuddering with a hoarse scream. Faintly, he heard the blonde let out a long groan as he came right behind him, the hips of the other stilling.
Both fell to the bed, trying to catch their breaths. Eyes fluttering open, Ruki figured that Reita would now just get up and leave him, but, he was suddenly pulled to the man’s body. Relaxing into the hold with a smile, he snuggled closer, uncaring of their sweaty bodies and the way they stuck.
Fingers beginning to leisurely play in his hair and then, Reita spoke up, “please, come back with us.”
Biting his lip, Ruki craned his neck to gaze at his lover. Looking into the intense fawn eyes, he could see that Reita was serious about it; but, he himself was serious about leaving. And so, with a smile, he lied to him, “okay.”
Smiling, he leaned in pressed a kiss to the bruised lips, “thank you.”
Looking away, he fought back the stinging of tears. He was going to enjoy this one moment; this moment that made him feel like he was in heaven. This was that moment; he’s touched his edge and for the first time, has truly felt alive.
Lightly running his finger over the chest of Reita, Ruki listened to the man’s breathing deepen and even out; he had finally fell asleep. The hold on his waist loosened slightly and he knew this would be the perfect time to go, but he couldn’t. He wasn’t ready to go.
Slowly sitting up, gazing at the sleeping man, Ruki sighed heavily. He could feel himself beginning to second guess his decision. He couldn’t though. So, he slipped from the hold, digging through the dark for his things, he dressed himself.
Looking out the window, he sighed, “I’d be crazy to go in the dark.
Going to a chair and sitting in it, gazing at the man on the bed. Even after all this, he was still set on leaving. After they finally stopped fighting what they truly wanted, Ruki was going to crush it all as soon as he left. The others are going to hate him for it, but, it was for the best. At least, he believed if he kept telling himself that, it’ll be true.
Waiting for what seemed like hours, he heard the faint chirpings of birds in the distance. Getting up quickly and taking his bag from the floor, he took one last look at Reita and then walked out. Sneaking through the streets of the town, everyone, even the watch had all passed out from the booze.
Running up the stairs to the top of the wall, he tied off a rope and lowered it to the ground. Giving one last look around, making sure no one was going to catch him, he climbed over the edge. Feet planted firmly against the wall, he eased his way to the bottom, dropping with a thud.
Securing his the bag on his shoulder, looking around, he ran off into the woods. Not knowing where he was going or what he was going to do.
