Summary: In which Shige is late, the Sexy Osaka Man gets his way, and breakfasts are given out like candy to trick or treaters.
Just read it.  I suck at summaries ^_^

It started like this.

First, Shige’s alarm clock failed to go off so he could wake up on time.  When he finally woke up, it was twenty minutes until his first class of the day, the last train to the university long gone.

Shige bolted awake and raced around his apartment, his cell phone in one hand while his other struggled to put on his uniform, a foamy toothbrush held firmly between his teeth.  He had called Koyama to see if he could possibly pick him up and give him a ride to school.

“Hai hai!” Koyama’s cheerful voice greeted Shige after a few rings.

‘Koyama!” Shige mumbled gratefully around his toothbrush, his one hand now trying to button up his shirt.  “I overslept.  Can you give me a ride?”

The phone crackled as Koyama let out a sigh.  “Gomen ne, Shige.  I can’t.  I’m already at the Jimusho and my car’s in the shop; I took the train here.”

Shige whimpered, exhaling exasperatingly and rushed to the bathroom to spit his toothpaste out.  “Ah, is there anyone there who might be willing to give me a ride?”

“Is something wrong, Koyama?” Shige heard another voice on Koyama’s side of the line say.

“Ah, Nishikido-kun, it’s nothing – “

“HOW can you say it’s NOTHING?!  I missed the last train to the uni!!” Shige screamed into the phone.

“Hai, hai, gomen ne, Shige.  Nishikido-kun, Shige missed the train to school and his class starts in twenty mintues, I think – “

“Well, it’s fifteen minutes now!”

“Hai, hai, gomen ne, Shige!  Fifteen minutes until his first class and he needs a ride.  It’s nothing, really.”

“KOYAMA!”

“Hai, hai, gomen ne, Shige!  I mean, it’s a very troublesome matter, Nishikido-kun.”

Shige, fully, if a little sloppily, dressed sat on his bed with his head in his hands, willing his large headache to go away.

“Well, I can probably go pick him up really quickly,” Shige heard Ryo say on the other line.

“Shige bolted up, gesturing his silent refusal to Ryo’s offer, even though neither Koyama nor Ryo could see him.

“Ah, Nishikido-kun, are you serious?  That would be great, arigatou!”

“Koya – ” Shige began.

“Shige, Nishikido-kun will be there soon!  He just left!  He’s so nice, eh?”

“Koyama, does Nishikido-kun even know where I live?!”

“Hai, He visited once for New Years, remember?”

“Koyama, that was last year at my parent’s house.  I got a new apartment since then, remember?”

“…Oh…”

“KOYAMA!!”

***

It continued like this.

Shige ended up being half an hour late to his class, even though Ryo showed up at his door five minutes after Shige ended his conversation with Koyama.

When Ryo arrived, he insisted on having breakfast at Shige’s first, since he took the time out of his busy schedule to pick Shige up.

“Nishikido-kun, I’ll be late!  Can we please leave now?!” Shige pleaded when Ryo forced his way into Shige’s apartment.  “If we leave now, I might be able to make it!”

“No, because I didn’t have to give you a ride,” Ryo said, kicking his shoes off carelessly as he made his way to the kitchen.  “I’m doing this out of the goodness of my heart.  So the least you can do is give me breakfast.”

“Nishikido-kun, I promise on my life that I will buy you breakfast tomorrow if we just leave now.”

“Nope.  It’s now or never; you either give me my breakfast now or you’re never going to get a ride.”

Shige groaned, setting his bag down and taking his shoes off at the door.  He made his way over to where Nishikido-kun was in the kitchen.  He dug some frozen waffles out of the freezer and popped them in the toaster.  After a few moments, Shige turned around.

“You know, my professor is a very impatient woman.  She won’t be very happy with you when I tell her that you are partially the reason why I was really late,” Shige stated, smirking slightly.

Ryo smirked back.  “That’s impossible.  No one can be mad at the Sexy Osaka Man.”

When Shige arrived at the University forty minutes later, Shige skulked to his seat, throwing his bag down.

Shige’s female professor scolded Shige harshly for being late.  When Shige told her that it was partially Ryo’s fault, she swallowed her diatribe at Ryo when Ryo flashed his ever-so-innocently wide smile.  She smiled radiantly back, then literally kicked Shige into the classroom.

Damn you, Sexy Osaka Man, Shige though as he sat to take notes.

***

It went on like this.

Shige found out that his alarm clock was broken when he woke up late again the next morning.  Since he didn’t have any time (or money) to buy a new one, he got to school via rides from Ryo.  After a few more mornings of being late, Shige finally got into the habit of having breakfast ready for Ryo so they could leave on time.

The first day, Shige picked up a dozen assorted donuts from the bakery across the street.  Unfortunately, a vast majority of them had chocolate on them.

“Chocolate donuts?  Kato-kun, do you realize what donuts do to your body?!  Are you trying to make the Sexy Osaka Man unsexy?!” Ryo exclaimed when Shige showed him the box.  “And chocolate?!  First donuts, but then they’re chocolate?!  Seriously, Kato-kun, CHOCOLATE?!”

And so, Shige had to endure the entire car ride with a grumpy, hungry, and complaining Ryo.

The second day, Shige cooked Ryo eggs and ham, the only thing in his refrigerator that was quick and easy to make.

“Eggs and ham?” Ryo demanded when Shige placed the plate in front of him.  “You call this breakfast?  Egss and ham?!”

And so, Shige had to endure the entire car ride with a grumpy, hungry, and complaining Ryo.  Again.

The third day, Shige spent the entire night before preparing a breakfast feast, taking time to research Ryo’s favorite foods on the several fansites dedicated to the Sexy Osaka Man.  Pardon me, I mean the Sexy Osaka Man.

When Ryo arrived that morning, letting himself in by taking the spare key from under the cat figurine near the welcome mat, it was to find a fully-dressed Shige at the kitchen table, head in his arms, sound asleep with a spread of food laid out on the table before him.  The foremost dish held a note.

Sexy Osaka Man-I will most likely have fallen asleep if you’re
reading this.  Here’s your breakfast for today.
Sorry if it’s a little cold; you always arrive a
little late anyways.

Once you’re done eating, please wake me up
so we can leave right away.

-Shige

Ryo smiled and set the note down.  He went to Shige’s cupboards and pulled out a few small plastic tupperware containers.  He put some of the food in each container, then slipped the ones he knew that Shige liked as well into his school bag.  The rest he kept for himself.

When he was done eating, Ryo wiped his mouth with a napkin and tossed it on top of the dirty dishes.  He’ll do those after he dropped Shige off at school.  He kicked Shige in the shin.

“Wake up, Kato-kun, it’s time to leave.”

That day was the first time had gotten to class early since his alarm clock broke.

***

It ended like this.

For about a month or so, Shige and Ryo had gotten into the routine of rides to school in exchange for breakfasts.  Secretly, Ryo hoped that Shige never got a new alarm clock so that he could spend more time with the young rock star.  And get a good breakfast every morning.  But it was mostly to spend time with Shige.

Though he, the Sexy Osaka Man, would never admit to that.

One morning, Ryo let himself into Shige’s apartment and found no peacefully sleeping Shige and no slightly lukewarm breakfast waiting for him.

Ryo slipped out of his shoes and closed the door behind him.

“Shige?” Ryo called out into the seemingly empty apartment.  “Shige?” he tried again.

Ryo tread the familiar path to Shige’s bedroom (he had often snooped around while Shige slept at the table) and let himself into the room.  “Shige?” Ryo said softly, surveying the slightly cluttered, but completely empty of human life, room.

Ryo frowned, wondering where Shige, no, his Shige, could possibly be.

After a while of just standing in the doorway, Ryo’s eyes finally rested on a shiny, silver, brand-new alarm clock.  Ryo felt his heart break a little when he saw the minute change on its digital face.

He crossed to the alarm clock next to the unmade bed in a few strides, picked it up in his hands and got the strongest urge to chuck it against the nearest wall.

Instead, Ryo set the alarm down gently, fiddling with the buttons until the alarm was set to 5:30 am, a full two hours before Shige really needed to get up.

The next morning, Shige jerked awake at 5:30, rubbing his eyes sleepily.

Shige looked up after a few moments into Ryo’s unreadable expression, confusion evident on his own face.  Ryo had snuck into Shige’s house at five that morning and sat next to Shige’s bed, watching Shige slumber peacfully for half an hour.  Shige cleared his sleep-clogged throat.

“Nishikido-kun?” Shige rasped sleepily, looking from the clock to Ryo, then back.  “What are you doing here so early?”

Ryo merely smiled and held up a pile of plastic containers wrapped up in a large square of blue cloth.  There were band-aids covering the shallow scrapes from the knife slipping and cutting his fingertips, as well as small burn marks on his palms.

You see, Ryo had spent all of the previous night researching Shige’s favorite foods on the fansites dedicated to NewS’s rockstar, as well as prepared them to the best of his ability.  Despite the many curse words that flowed from his mouth during the process, Ryo merely smiled at Shige.

“It may be a little cold, but then again I’ve been waiting for a while.”

Shige still stared at Ryo in disbelief.  Ryo smiled even wider.

“Eat up and get dressed, Shige-kun.  I wanna take you for a drive before your first class.”

[Fan Fic] AAAACCKKKK!!

Title: AAAACCKKKK!!
Author: me ^^
Pairing: NishiKato
Disclaimer/Notes: It’s a Never Ending Wonderful Story, but that’s all my wishes ever will be, a story… T___T
I was inspired to write basically Ryo’s side of Health Points, only it’s the continuations of Health Points… Kind of…
It will all make sense in the end, I swear.
Oh yeah, and it could be for the wonderful Shige-thon that I mentioned earlier. If it was one specific prompt, it would be #7: 5 times Ryo scared Shige.
I do love NishiKato, yes I do D
Summary: If Shige had just not beaten Ryo at Tekken, Shige wouldn’t have suffered such critical damage. But then again, it’s Shige, and Shige is the master of all fighting video games. However, Ryo’s rather glad that while he may suck at Tekken, he rules at a different game altogether…

~Opening~

“Damn you!” Ryo growled through clenched teeth. He watched as Shige’s character delivered a deadly combo to Ryo’s helpless character. He watched in disbelief as Shige continued to kick the limp body mercilessly, even after the voice had announced the K.O. Ryo gnashed his teeth angrily. This was the tenth time in a row. Damn, when did Shige get so good at video games?

Ryo stood up suddenly, counting backwards from ten to keep his anger down.

Ju…

“Ne, Nishikido-kun, you kind of suck.”

Kyu…

“Don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll win eventually.

Hachi…

“One more round? Or have you had enough?”

Shichi…

“Sit down and relax! I’ll go easy on you, I promise.”

Roku…

“Wow, Nishikido-kun, I never knew you were a sore loser.”

GoShiSanNiIchi!

I can’t take it anymore!

Ryo stormed from the room, slamming the door so hard that the frame rattled. Shige stared at the closed door in alarm.

Dammit, I’ve done it now.

*

The first two times that Shige walked in on Ryo, Ryo hadn’t planned it at all. Especially not the second time. But when he saw the effect that it had on Shige, Ryo’s plotting mind began to formulate his revenge for his merciless trouncing in Tekken, brought on by Shige. At the onsen, he was able to scare the other members into different parts of the locker room by saying that he was about to change and that he was completely nude. Naturally, Shige didn’t hear the other members leave, so when he came back, he was greeted with a smirking Ryo bent over at an odd angle, fishing a pair of pants out of his locker, much like the first scenario Shige had found himself in. The morning wake up call was a shaky one. He didn’t know if Shige would actually oblige and be the one to deliver Ryo’s wake up call, but Ryo smirked evilly when he heard Shige’s voice filter through the hotel door. He unlocked the door then took his place on the bed. And naturally, Shige gave that oh-so adorable, “AAAACCKKKK!!” that Ryo grew to love.

The fifth time was pure accident. He noticed that he left his door open after he got out of his shower and went to close it when he heard muffled breathing on the other side, as if the person was trying to silence their heavy breathing after they had run a mile. When Ryo opened the door, he was surprised to find Shige on the other side, but not entirely disappointed.

And that’s how Ryo delivered his own K.O. to the seemingly unbeatable Shigeaki Kato.

But Ryo was planning his overkill right now, wondering how he was going to mercilessly kick the lifeless body of Shigeaki Kato around after his HP bar was completely empty, much like how Shige did to Ryo’s character after their tenth battle.

Ryo tied the front of his robe, smirking evilly.

His plan was going to go off without a hitch.

~Scene 1~

Their last concert just ended, and the members were in tears. Ryo’s eyes were brimming with tears, none of which spilled over. Shige’s cheeks were tear stained, and looked rather ridiculous next to the composed Ryo Nishikido.

All six members made their way backstage, their arms wrapped around each others’ shoulders, supporting everyone at once. Koyama was the least composed, sniffling every so often and whining, “It’s overrrrr, overrrrr…” No one minded because they were all occupied with their own emotions. In Ryo’s case, he was fighting back a smirk, too occupied to shut Koyama up.

Ever so slowly, Ryo lowered his head onto Shige’s shoulder, positioning his head so that his mouth was next to the junction where Shige’s neck met his shoulder. Ryo allowed his warm breath to spill over Shige’s neck as he whispered, “It’s over, Kato-kun. Are you sad?”

Shige tensed noticeably. “Eh, I know we’re going to be keeping busy, and there’ll another concert tour next year, most likely, so we’ll be back. It is a bit sad, because it’s the last of this concert tour…”

Ryo brought his arm that was around Tegoshi and brought it around to hug Shige’s waist. “Ne, but it’s a while until the next television appearance we have together. I’m doing stuff with Kanjani8 for a while…”

“So…?” Shige questioned tentatively, looking at Ryo cautiously out of the corner of his eye.

“So…” Ryo mumbled, hugging Shige tighter. “Will you miss me Shi-ge-chan?” Ryo said in a cute voice, emphasizing every syllable of Shige’s name.

Shige looked at Ryo with frightened eyes. He squirmed out of Ryo’s embrace and caught up with Tegoshi, starting a forced conversation about university life.

Ryo smirked; he could practically hear Shige’s thoughts going, “AAAACCKKKK!!”

~Scene 2~

It was the beginning of summer. Ryo walked into the NewS locker room with a joyful, “I’m here!!!” He wasn’t expecting anyone to be there, since there wasn’t anyone in the parking lot except a few people from KAT-TUN.

Well, he was expecting at least one person to be in there.

Shige was grumbling angrily when Ryo came in. His hair was in its new faux-hawk style, still looking soft while staying in its unnatural position. He was changing his pants when Ryo opened the door. A large coffee stain adorned his left pant leg while a styrofoam coffee cup lay squashed and dejected on the floor near Shige’s feet. He was bent over, fishing a clean pair of pants out of his locker. It was much like the scene when Shige first walked in on Ryo, only Shige was wearing underwear.

Ryo smirked evilly. He wasn’t expecting this. His plan was going to go a lot more smoothly.

Ignoring Ryo, Shige pulled his stained pants down all the way and stepped out of them. As he bent down to pull his clean pair over his legs, Ryo stood behind Shige and leaned over to whisper in Shige’s ear. “Ne, Shige-chan, I missed you too.”

Shige jumped violently, slamming against the row of lockers. Ryo pinned Shige there, biting back a hysterical laugh. It was almost too easy.

“Shige-chan, did you miss me too?” Ryo whispered, so close that his breath blew over Shige’s face; vanilla and mint with a hint of coffee. It was one of the most seductive scents Shige had ever inhaled.

“Eeeyahhuuheieieiaaaacckkkk…” Shige gurgled, rendered incoherent by Ryo’s closeness and his scent. “Eeuueiiiaaaacckkkk, of course Nishikido-kun.”

Ryo leaned even closer into Shige’s body. He pressed his torso against Shige’s. Ryo could feel Shige’s heart beating as wildly and as fast as a hummingbird’s. Ryo smirked, leaning towards Shige’s pierced ear. “Scared, Shige-chan?”

Shige tensed even more. “Eeeyahhuuheieieiaaaacckkkk…”

“You know, Shige-chan, I love the way you go aaaacckkkk…”

Shige slipped out of Ryo’s pin and ran out of the room.

Ryo chuckled, his chuckles growing into a full blown belly laugh. Shige’s voice echoed down the hall and into the locker room.

“AAAACCKKKK!!”

~Scene 3~

It was lunch break and Shige wiped his brow with the towel he stuffed into his bag. He took a swig from his water bottle, then almost choked on his sip when he saw Ryo making a beeline for him, a predatory look in his eyes, making Shige feel like the prey.

“Shigeeeee chaaaaaaannnnn!!”

Koyama jumped on Shige from behind, making Shige slop water down the front of his white shirt. Shige laughed, pushing Ryo out of his mind and focused instead on Koyama.

But sooner rather than later, Ryo was standing next to Shige. “Ne, Kato-kun, you want to go to lunch with me? There’s a new restaurant that I want to try, but Yamapi doesn’t want to go with me.”

Ryo fought back a laugh. He could practically hear Shige’s thoughts screaming, “Why don’t you go yourself??”

Koyama gasped. “Ahh, that’s perfect Nishikido-kun! That’s actually what I came to talk to Shige about!” Koyama turned his attention to Shige. “Gomen ne, Shige, but Tegoshi asked me to lunch today, so I’m going to have to cancel. You can go with Nishikido-kun!”

“EH?”

“That’s perfect!” Ryo exclaimed, grabbing Shige’s hand and pulling him out the door. “Come on, Kato-kun, it’s a pretty short walk from the building, so we have to hurry. I heard that it was getting really popular, so we have to hurry to get a table. Come on, Kato-kun, hurry hurry hurry!!”

Shige looked back at Koyama with a pleading look in his eyes. Ryo look back at him and smirked when Shige’s gaze turned back to him. As Ryo pulled him out the door, tugging roughly at his wrist.

“Aaaacckkkk…” Shige said softly.

~Scene 4~

Lunch was a scary affair. They had found a table and ordered their food, sitting there in uncomfortable silence. Well, Shige was uncomfortable. Ryo relaxed in his chair, smirking internally at the sight of Shige squirming restlessly. Shige had squirmed even more when Ryo looked greedily at Shige’s food, trapped in Shige’s chopsticks and making its way to his lips. And Shige had complied stiffly when Ryo opened his mouth and titled his head in Shige’s direction, his eyes locked into Shige’s and murmuring a soft, “Un,” when asking for the food.

Feeding Ryo Nishikido was the weirdest thing Shige had ever done in his entire life.

And being fed by Ryo Nishikido was the weirdest thing that ever happened to Shige. Ryo picked up a bit of food and tilted his chopsticks to Shige’s mouth. “Say, ‘Aaaaa,’ Shige-chan “

Shige could practically hear the smiley face in Ryo’s tone.

He looked at Ryo with a confused expression. “Ne, Nishikido-kun, did you switch personalities with Tegoshi-kun or something?”

Ryo still smiled widely. “Just say it, Shige-chan.”

Shige rolled his eyes. “Aaaa… cckkkk.”

Ryo smiled even wider.

~Scene 5~

It was Shige’s birthday. His twentieth birthday.

Ryo rang Shige’s doorbell, smoothing the front of his black t-shirt. A kind-faced woman answered the door, smiling widely when she saw Ryo at the door.

“Nishikido-kun, konnichiwa! It’s been a while since you’ve been by. Come in, come in!”

Ryo smiled politely and stepped inside the door. “Actually, I won’t be staying long. I was wondering if Shige-kun is home? I wanted to take him out for his birthday.”

Shige’s mother smiled widely. “He’s upstairs. Why don’t you go on up and wake him? He hasn’t awoken at all, since it’s summer vacation and his birthday. Tell him to come down for lunch okay?”

Ryo smiled again, but his eyes held a predatory gleam that went unnoticed by Shige’s mother. “Of course, I’ll get him to come down.

Taking off his shoes and bounding up the stairs, Ryo found Shige’s room and slid the door open without knocking.

And there he was. Shigeaki Kato, on his stomach, sleeping soundly.

Ryo slid the door closed after him silently, taking care to make as little noise as possible. He took his t-shirt off, laying it by the door, his pants following shortly after. He stayed in his boxers, taking his socks off and laying them in the pile.

He made his way to Shige’s bed, laying down next to Shige so that when he woke up, he would be greeted with Ryo’s smiling face. Ryo propped himself on one arm, pulling Shige’s limp arms around his torso. Ryo then smirked as he proceeded to prod Shige awake.

“Shige-chan, it’s already noon. Wake up, Shige-kun…”

Shige stirred, but didn’t wake.

“Shige-chan, wake up. The day awaits.”

Shige snuggled closer to Ryo’s chest, burying his face in it. “Eeeeuuaieieiaeeeeaaaacckkkk…”

“Shige-chan, wake up, it’s your birthday.”

Shige stirred and squeezed his eyes, opening them slowly. He moved his head slowly and met Ryo’s eyes.

Ryo smirked. “Happy birthday, Shi-ge-chan ^^”

Shige could hear the cute smile in Ryo’s voice, and see it on his face. Shige smiled too, tightening his grip on Ryo’s waist and nuzzling his face into his chest. “Thank you, Nishikido-kun…”

Ryo smiled and waited for Shige’s reaction.

After a while, Shige lifted his head.

“Ne, Nishikido-kun, why aren’t you naked?”

“Ha ha, Shige-chan, did I-”

Ryo stopped suddenly. “W-wait…”

Ryo looked into Shige’s eyes, who was staring back innocently. “Wh-what did you s-say?”

“Why aren’t you naked, Nishikido-kun?”

Ryo stared in shocked silence.

Shige stared back. His expression changed from sleepy innocence to horrified realization.

“…Ne, Nishikido-kun, I am awake.”

“…Yes.”

“…”

“…I’m not dreaming?”

“…No…”

Shige blanched, then blushed furiously. He let go of Ryo like he was a suddenly scorching hot and flopped onto his back. “Eeeeeuuuaiaeeeeieiuuuaaaacckkkk!!!”

Ryo smirked, and rolled over so he was on top of Shige.

“Ne, ne, Shige-chan, did you dream about me last night?”

“…Yes, Nishikido-kun…”

“Eh? Eh? And why was I naked?” Ryo asked mischieviously, leaning over so that he whispered in Shige’s ear.

Shige tensed and shoved Ryo off. He looked at Ryo with fear in his eyes.

Ryo waited patiently for Shige’s reaction.

“…”

“…”

“AAAACCKKKK!!”

[Fan Fiction] Health Points

I apologize for any OOC-ness.  I’ve only been into JE for about two months and I already know most of the lingo and such, but I can’t be too sure on anything right now.  My mind is in a fragile state because school starts in TWO DAYS.

Disclaimer/Notes: I wish on a star ever night for these boys.  So far, my attempts have been futile.
This is my first JE fan fic.  I’ve written Harry Potter fan fiction, Artemis Fowl fan fiction, Twilight fan fiction, and even Clay Aiken fan fiction (please don’t ask).  This is new territory for me.  I’ve only been into JE for two months and they’ve already taken over my brain.
ALSO, the prompt is from the wonderful Shige-thon that I stumbled across.  Feel the Shige!Love, ya’ll.  And it really has no point.  It’s not something to make a fan girl drool, or particularly cracky.  It’s just made up on the spot.
I apologize.
9: 5 times Shige walked in on Ryo

~Scene 1~

For some strange reason, Shige was early.  He couldn’t remember the last time that he was early; ever since NewS was reformed, Shige had always been on the brink of being on time, never late but never early.  Always just on time.

He wandered the halls of the Johnny’s Entertainment building, taking his time since he still had plenty of time.  Several juniors rushed past him, only pausing to give him a short bow with a hurried, “Ohayou, Kato-senpai!”  Shige smiled in return, murmuring a quiet, “Ohayou,” back.  He was at peace this morning.

Reaching the locker room that he shared with the other NewS members, Shige sighed as he brought himself back down to Earth out of his thoughts.  He was going to have to focus today; they were learning new choreography for their spring tour.  If Shige was even pausing to wipe the sweat from his brow, Ryo would be on him like a flea on a stray dog.

Shige swung the door open quickly, exclaiming cheerfully, “I’m here!!”  He wasn’t expecting anyone to be in the locker room, he hadn’t seen anyone else in the halls or in the parking lot.

What happened next made Shige think that his life was nothing but a fighting video game, a Health Points bar floating above his head, measuring the amount of damage that he suffered on a daily basis.  What happened next was enough to inflict permanent damage on his HP bar.

He was greeted with the sight of Ryo changing his pants.  The pair that he was wearing had a large coffee stain on one leg and Ryo was grumbling angrily, shooting death glares at the styrofoam coffee cup that was now laying dejectedly on the floor.  When Shige walked in, Ryo had his pants down to his knees, bent over to search for a clean pair of pants in his locker.

Unfortunately, that day was the day that Ryo decided to go commando.

“AAAACCKKKK!!”

~Scene 2~

That same day, Koyama noticed how Shige was unnaturally silent, even when Koyama purposefully acted like a baka all day, just to get Shige’s attention.  The tension between Shige and Ryo was even more tangible; they both kept a safe distance from each other.  They were like magnets with similar poles.  Every time one would move closer, the other would hurriedly scurry away.

Koyama also noticed the blank stare that Shige had on his face all day.  It was a bit frightening.  When they were dancing, the same blank stare facing forward.  When they had a break, the same blank stare taking a swig of water from his bottle.  When the choreographer explained a particularly difficult move, the same blank stare when he nodded.  Koyama was worried.

At the end of their lunch break, Koyama and Shige were walking towards their locker room, Koyama talking the entire time while Shige only stared straight ahead.  Finally, Koyama was fed up with Shige’s behavior.

“Ne, Shige, what’s wrong with you?  You haven’t said anything about me being stupid all day!  And you seemed perfectly fine when we talked last night.  What’s wrong?”

Shige shook his head like a dog shaking water out of its ears, and simply shrugged.  “It’s nothing, don’t worry about it.  I’m perfectly fine.  See?” Shige added, smiling widely.

Koyama looked at him suspiciously.  “Alright, if you say so…”

Shige forced a laugh and opened the door to the locker room.  He had hoped that the blow to his Health Points bar wasn’t too noticeable.

He was again greeted with the sight of Ryo with his pants down, only this time it was to see Tegoshi with him, doing something that was entirely inappropriate for the workplace.

“AAAACCKKKK!!”

~Scene 3~

They were on their Spring tour.  The entire time, Shige had avoided Ryo anytime they had to change in any confined place.  When they went to the onsen, Shige was scared for his life.  Two times, and Shige was already scarred for life.

After relaxing with Koyama in the spring, Shige came into the locker room wrapped in a towel and feeling very much relaxed.  The spring had a giddy effect on Shige; he acted tipsy, as if he had drunk a bottle of wine instead of relaxed in a hot spring.  Shige felt like his Health Points bar was recovering from the blows it had suffered rather recently.

He changed away from the other members, feeling even more relaxed as he pulled his soft sweatpants over his legs.  After pulling a t-shirt over his head, Shige headed back to where the others were gathered around, relaxing after playing around in the hot spring.

At least, everyone was there.  They had apparently left to go change in different areas of the locker, like Shige did.  The only one that was left was Ryo.

And Ryo had just removed his robe to begin changing into comfortable clothes, fresh from the hot spring and completely nude.

“AAAACCKKKK!!”

~Scene 4~

Three times in the past three weeks, Shige had walked in on Ryo Nishikido in a less than decent state.  Three times, Shige was scarred for life.  Yes, he had seen his group members change before.  They were always cramped backstage during a concert and such, so there really wasn’t any privacy.  But during those times, the members at least had underwear on.  Boxers or briefs or something.  Shige had never walked in on a member when they were basically completely nude.

Until Ryo, of course.

No one knew that Shige had walked in on Ryo three times.  Koyama knew that it happened once, since he was with Shige the second time.

It had become Ryo’s main teasing point.  When members weren’t paying attention, Ryo would whisper playfully in Shige’s ear, “Ne, did you like what you saw?  Three times, tsk tsk, are you trying to tell me something, Kato-kun?”

Shige would blush furiously, setting his jaw to determinedly ignore Ryo’s husky whisper.  It proved to be very difficult when Ryo laughed softly, his warm breath washed over Shige’s neck and shoulder.

It was morning.  Five members of NewS was in the lobby of the hotel at the current time.  Only one member was missing.

“Hey, Shige, go get Ryo.”

“What?  Why me?”

“He said that he if he didn’t wake up this morning, to send you.”

“What?”

“Just do it.”

Shige stood outside Ryo’s door, taking a deep breath to brace himself.  Shige himself was still drowsy, he slept fitfully the night before as his mind kept flipping back to the feel of Ryo’s got breath on his skin.  He was beginning to feel the after effects of having several blows throw towards his Heath Points bar.  He knocked loudly.  “Nishikido-kun!  Wake up, it’s already morning!”

When there wasn’t an answer, Shige knocked again, louder than before.  “Nishikido-kun!  It’s morning!”

Again, no answer, so Shige jerked the doorknob, surprised to find it unlocked.  Shige flung the door open, trying his best to set his face in an angry expression.

“NISHIKI-”

Shige stopped dead.  He was greeted with the sight of a completely nude Ryo reclined gracefully and seductively on the nearest bed, a playful smirk on his face.

“AAAACCKKKK!!”

~Scene 5~

Shige had the blank stare on his face again, and Koyama was worried.  They heard Shige’s scream when they sent him to wake Ryo up.  When he came back, Shige’s head and shoulders were completely soaked with water.  “He wanted to give me the wake up call, not have me wake him up,” Shige had grumbled when the members asked him.  Truth was, Shige had gone crazy and ran into the bathroom in Ryo’s hotel room and splashed water on his face haphazardly over and over again, as if trying to wash the sight of a completely nude Ryo on the bed.

Ryo came right after Shige, smiling innocently, his bed head hidden under his, “MEAN PEOPLE SUCK,” hat.

Shige glared at Ryo.  “Your hat speaks the truth.  But it should say, ‘Ryo Nishikido SUCKS.’”

Ryo only chuckled playfully, shrugging and not saying anything.

That was this morning.  After the concert, the boys of NewS left the venue in high spirits, tripping blithely to the entrance of the hotel.  They went their separate ways, Koyama dragging Shige to their hotel room so they could do stupid stuff again with the camera.

They laughed loudly as they lip synced with the music that was emanating from Shige’s iPod.  Daite Senorita, Teppen, and a few others.

The room was getting much too hot and Koyama was basically passed out on his bed, so Shige decided to roam the halls for a bit.  Putting on a beanie to hide his mussed up hair, Shige stepped out into the deserted hallway and walked for a bit.

The door to one room was open.  It was Ryo’s.

Shige froze right before reaching the door.  He glared at it, perched ever so innocently open, just slightly so one could only see a small slit of the room that it guarded.  Shige glared at it as if it had wronged him or hit him and inflicted critical damage.  Shige imagined his Health Points bar floating above his head, seriously depeleted because of the several times he had seen Ryo less than decent state, and Ryo with a bar that was overflowing with HP because he seemed to get so much pleasure from making Shige blush.  This was a fighting game, Shige thought.  He was good at fighting games.  All he needs to do is block every scarring sight that came his way and try to attack at the most probable moment.

He edged around the door carefully, stealthily creeping silently his eyes glued to the door, as if daring it to open itself to reveal whatever state Ryo was in at the current moment.

And damn his luck, the door did open.

And Ryo was covered completely with a robe, compliments of the hotel they were staying at.

Shige sighed a breath of relief.  He was safe.

Ryo, seeing Shige’s expression, smirked wildly.  Ever so carefully, he undid the knot that held the robe in place.  Shige’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“No…” Shige muttered, his body tensing in fear.  “No…  No… No.  NO.  NO!!”

Shige’s Health Points bar depleted, and Ryo grinned triumphantly.
