Naoko didn't mind his brother ordering for them. In fact, he was used to it from before he had left home. Sai always picked the best things off the menu, after all. It was as if he had an uncanny knack for it.
Instead, however, of address Sai's reply to his apology, the pianist focused on his brother's message from their mom. "Okasan wants me home?" he asked, a bit startled by that. For a second, the blond didn't know what to say. He just took another quick drag of his cigarette. "So she'll actually talk to me again?" Naoko replied, feeling a strange bit of homesickness flood through him. "I mean, after I left home, she called and basically disowned me so..."
Naoko's mother had basically given the usual tirade about 'music ruining his life' and that he would 'get into nothing but trouble in Tokyo'. So far... well... the pianist couldn't tell if her predictions were coming true or not.
"Tell her I'll try to." Naoko eventually replied with a sigh. "Right now, things aren't going so well for Hikari ya Yami and I'm supposed to meet with Shou in the morning to discuss going on tour with him for a while until SMASH can sort things out. He needs a pianist and, well, since my manager has up and run off, I'm taking any bone thrown to me at the moment." the blond took another hit on his cigarette. "But I'd like to come home if I can." he laughed softly. "I really do miss seeing you every day, niisan."
Somewhere in the back of Naoko's mind, he was determined, to do just as Sai suggested. To 'focus on the new day' and leave Hayato out of the equation. Especially since he did love his brother... and he didn't want to upset Sai who, strangely enough, seemed rather mellow today.
That thought in itself cause Naoko pause and he tipped the ashes of his cigarette into an ashtray on the table. "Niisan... are you feeling alright? I mean... you're just not your usual genki self and... to be honest, it's kind of weirding me out."

Cooperation? Teamwork? A joint concert? Working together? Singing on the same stage together? Bridge the two acts?
All of those notions... Narcissus didn't really understand. "Are you suggesting..." but then the man shook his head. "No... as long as I don't have to share the stage with Shou at the same time... as long as I am the center of attention, Ruki-san... then I'd be happy to discuss joining our sets and themes. He can be a prince... I can be a demon." the dark haired man scoffed, "Who'd want to be a prince anyway? That's a wasted notion."
For the moment, Akihiko stopped rubbing Izzy's shoulders. Mainly because his more narcissistic side was coming out and he really didn't enjoy doing things for others. Or did he?
No... no he really didn't.
But then, of course, Akihiko remembered that he was trying to de-stress his manager... At least, that would be one way to phrase his tactics anyway.
"I'll need to speak with a costumer and a set designer, as well as a choreographer before I can begin to properly plan my song line up. Of course I'll want you there with me... to keep them apprised of any financial business. I'd rather not," he smirked teasingly. "Pry into your private accounts, after all..."
However, Narcissus' hands continued to masterfully massage Izzy's shoulders once again, carefully kneading the knots out of those tense muscles. He released Izzy's chin, but his intense blue gaze kept focused on the man before him. "I really wouldn't mind, you know... After all... you're letting me stay here and, to be honest, Ruki-san... it's the least I can do after all the stress I've brought here."
Okay, so it was blatant honesty. Honesty that was helping Akihiko ease Izzy Lucky out of his chair and carefully steer him back toward the bedroom. All the while, continuing his gentle yet wondrous massage on the man's shoulders and neck.
"Just think of how wonderful you'll feel afterward, Ruki-san..."

Do you know what you got into Can you handle what I’m ’bout to do------------------------------------------------}:- SAI No escaping when I start .traeh ruoy nwo I ni m'I ecnO
"Okasan has been worried about you, Ko-kun. Just like the rest of us, she sometimes speaks before thinking. I believe she's been feeling regret for a few years now." he answered truthfully knowing that their mother was just like any mother. She wanted the bests for her sons and sometimes those feelings were intense.
"I'm sure she'd love it if you sent her a text message but I will tell her when I see her next." His smile was sincere because in his own heart he'd like to feel that their family was unified once more. "It's been difficult on her not knowing how you're doing."
Sai tilted his head and listened to Naoko talk about the band. "Are things in that bad of shape for Hikari ya Yami? Mmm...is Shou the guy promoting XfantasyX? I think I've seen him on cable."
He nodded slightly as he took a sip on his chai, "I'd like to see you every day too, Naoko. We will have to plan some outings." He smiled a bit more and then as the waitress brought a platter of appetizers, he was the first to pick one up to snack on.
"However, I might be on a few business trips in the near future that will take me out of town for a few weeks. And I am sure whatever you set up with the band or Shou will keep you busy too." It wasn't that he didn't want to spend time with Naoko, but truthfully he was still feeling out the 'new' turn of their relationship.
To answer yes would be a lie but how could he describe the feelings he had without making a step towards conversations they should not broach. But he had to make an effort here as he was certainly feeling a bit different about their relationship over all. What could he do? It wasn't like he could be the same man he was yesterday with Naoko.
"I'm tired and I was really busy at work so I haven't had enough sleep. But...fully answering your question, I'm just trying to bring our relationship to the right perspective as brothers only. So give me some time to make that adjustment. Change can come in a day but acceptance takes longer."

It was almost like a punch to the stomach. Naoko felt ill, sick down to his very core. And the guilt that was not eating at him wasn't helping at all.
Sai had lied to him.
The younger brother always knew when his niisan was trying to spare his feelings, or sugar coat something... but this... Sure, maybe Sai really was tired but... in many ways, it was still a lie to the blond's ears.
Brothers only hadn't been what Naoko wanted. Sure, he wanted Sai and himself to be brothers... but he wanted them to be as they always had. He wanted their relationship to go unchanged. And yet...
Naoko recalled how Sai had confessed that he loved his little brother. Not as a brother, but as a lover. And Naoko had been unable to return that sort of love because to him... Sai was niisan.
Now, Naoko wasn't so sure he liked this change. Especially since it seemed to be affecting Sai on a level outside of their relationship. If his brother wasn't getting enough sleep or was too busy at work... he needed to rest... not to dwell on his otouto's mess.
But that hardly changed the fact that Naoko senses there was something which Sai wasn't saying. And that cut him deeply...
But Naoko smirked, acting as if nothing were wrong at all. "Work's being that big of a b***h?" he asked, putting out his cigarette and taking one of the appetizers for himself. The pianist leaned on the table, chin comfortably propped in one upturned hand as he chewed. "What is this? It's delicious!" NAKO replied with a smile before heading back into their 'family' conversation. "Okasan really... well, I'll send her a message then. If she's that worried. Geez, you both act like I can't take care of myself..." Naoko blinked then sighed, "No, I CAN take care of myself, Sai. Sometimes I just neglect to." he rephrased his sentence. "As for outings..." the blond smiled once again. "I'd like that. I know I'll be busy soon, and that you have your own life as well, niisan... but I'd really like to spend time with you. I don't want to push you away, you know?"
Leaning back again, Naoko took a sip of his hot chai. "Yes, things are bad. My manager's run off and I can't contact any other members of the band except Shou, our new vocalist. And yes, he's the one promoting them... the man's damn gorgeous too, so I'm looking forward to working with him." the pianist laughed softly. "You know better than anyone that I hate to be the center of attention on stage. Shou will easily eat up the lime light and I can play to my heart's content."
Of course, the notion that Hikari ya Yami may soon be a thing of the past... tore away at NAKO from the inside out. But he wasn't about to let his brother know that. In fact, if Naoko had his way, he wasn't ever going to make Sai worry again...

"What I meant is something...mm...like maybe the Princess moves from you to him...or vice versa. I mean you don't have to be on stage with him. But maybe both acts tell a twisted fairy tale. Just an idea. Well, I'd like to be a prince." he smiled a bit as his eyes closed, "To be that rich, desired...all the trappings. I wonder what its like to feel like that and live a dream. " He mused out loud and maybe he shouldn't have but for a moment the massage had loosened his tongue just a hair.
His eyes fluttered just a hair as he listened to Narcissus' needs, "I'll add that to my list of phone calls along with the set crew. Mmm...Indeed. You'd just be trouble if I let you do that." However, his mind wandered away from work again even though that was where he should have been focusing 100%. The massage was getting to him as the knots started to ease under the skillful hands.
"Are you sure??" he asked uncertainly but soon he was standing, walking and out of sorts as Narcissus guided him back towards the bedroom. What exactly was he intending to do? At the moment, he didn't quite grasp the rest of what Narcissus planned. The massage upon his shoulders and neck was so distracting that Ruki couldn't think straight. "Ahh....that feels....good now...." were the words that escaped him with the squeeze at his neck.

"I'll steal Shou's princess... or perhaps die trying, hmm?" Akihiko replied with a bit of a smirk. "Wouldn't that be an event? A grand fairy tale, a contest between good and evil. And as long as I look damn good, I don't think I'd mind a tragic death."
It was such an amusing possibility! After all, Narcissus could think of so many ways to die on stage! Shou's character could vanquish him, or perhaps the lovely princess could turn an spear him through the heart? The demon could kill himself when he loses the princess to the prince's charms... Hell, his own minions could even revolt and drag him into the pits of the abyss!
Too many choices... Narcissus would seriously need to think about that for a while.
However... Shou wasn't really at the forefront of the dark haired man's mind now. His manager however... was.
"Just trust me, Ruki-san." Akihiko whispered, guiding his manager over to the bed and carefully helping the megane-clad man lay down on his stomach. Of course, from this angle, Izzy missed the wince which passed across Narcissus' face for a split second, as the musical prodigy carefully straddled Lucky at the hips. It wasn't anything really sensual... well... okay so that wasn't true.
Akihiko had actually forgotten that he wasn't wearing anything... and that he hadn't fixed that drafty problem.
"Chotto matte..." Narcissus spoke, standing back up and carefully browsing through Izzy's closet. Somehow he found a yukata stuck in the back, and quickly donned it. Liking how the dark green fabric drapped his lithe frame, the musician headed back to the bed and straddled Izzy's hips once more.
"I'll need this pesky shirt gone though, Ruki-san..." Akihiko whispered, slipping his lithe fingers around his manager's chest and unbuttoning the pajama top with deft expert flicks. It only took the man a few seconds before he carefully pulled Izzy's arms out of the sleeves and tossed the garment across the room.
Smirking to himself, Narcissus carefully began his massage. At first, he continued to focus on Lucky's shoulders, but his fingers moved down to the back of the shoulder blades and the manager's neck area, skillfully kneading out the knots he found there.

Ryuukaze “I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve it through not dying.” Ryu had his ways, when he needed to. Ways to get around, ways to get what he needed. It had taken quite a few hours and dozens of phone calls, but the violinist had finally tracked down where Naoko had gotten to. Of course, he wasn't going to call or text the man. What he needed to do would require the element of surprise. Slowly, painfully, the petit man got out of the taxi, paid, and ambled into the hospital that he had been directed to. His question now, however, was why was Naoko back at the hospital? Who was it that was here now that Naoko simply had to be with? Making his way through the hospital, Ryu had to ask all along the way where he could find his love. Finally, he was directed to a private room belonging to one Hayato. Knocking on the hospital room door, Ryu shuffled in, nearly dragging his crutches at this point. "Naoko, I...." he began, quickly noticing that his lover was not in the room. Sighing, he carefully sat down in the chair beside the comatose man's bed. Looking at this Hayato, however...Ryu knew in an instant exactly what this was all about. "Well then, Hayato-san...we can wait for our tenshi to return together." “For Love is Immortality.”

(((OOC: OMG! I was just commenting to Kaikoloren about how I hoped Ryuu would come to the hospital!!! Like seriously not more than fifteen minutes ago! Kaiko went to bed though, so Naoko and Sai's conversation isn't going to end tonight... but I'm so eager to get Naoko back to the hospital! I've been wondering what you'd have Ryuu do next, hehe!)))

Izzy chuckled just a little. Narcissus actually could see the use of working with Shou to a degree. That was an accomplishment indeed. There actually was a team player of sorts in Narcissus but it would take time to develop it. Izzy knew that he'd just have to feed that sort of thing a little at a time to Koyasu-san and eventually it might become a part of his life. Such a stubborn star needed subtle handling.
"Oh yes...I can see it. The crowd would be wild with excitement and wouldn't want the story to end. It would probably snag us enough sponsors to finance your whole tour. Even sell a dvd of the charity event. I bet your fans would love to have that. Mmm...and the promo items. We could make a killing." All those ideas mingled in his head which was getting rather heavy from the comfy massage.
Soon though, he was flat upon his bed and realizing that wait, maybe he shouldn't be letting Narcissus do this. Oh my! Was he really that oblivious today?!! He had forgotten Naricissus was still naked! Actually, he had ignored it when he had been staring at the laptop and deep into his work! But now it was quite obvious in more ways than one when Narcissus straddled his hips. In the back of his mind he imagined all the fans that would have killed to be where he was. Why couldn't he just relax and enjoy this? Why did he feel nervous and...giddy? Why did Narcissus and Nakai always seem to cause these flustered feelings when he was caught off guard?
Maybe he should get up? Maybe he should tell Narcissus that he shouldn't be...doing this? Maybe he should...OH wait! He's getting up and going to the closet! A sigh of relief released from him when Narcissus found a yukata in the back of the closet. He actually forgot he had one but it looked rather attractive on Narcissus. Yes, Koyasu-san could make anything look great. Thankfully, the man didn't look through the rest of his wardrobe because it probably was rather disappointing compared to what Koyasu-san was used to.
From this unusual position, Izzy should have gotten up and walked out as the strict manager part of him demanded he do. However, the desiring part of him that was interested in his stars and truly starving for a massage made his every move a hesitation. However, it seemed that the desiring side won over because before Izzy knew it, Narcissus had slide back into place over his hips again.
"Ah...are you sure you need to remove...?" Izzy squeaked but it wasn't much used when deft hands had already plucked the buttons and slipped off the shirt.
His high cheeks became rosy red when the soft skilled fingers returned to his to his back and started kneading into the sore muscles. The sensual feeling was incredibly soothing and his face practically sank into his pillow. He couldn't even remember when someone else had ever done something like this for him. Maybe when he went to the chiropractor a few years ago? "Oh...mm...that feels wonderful, Koyasu-san." Izzy's breathy words barely audible as he started melt like butter; his fingers lightly squeezing the sheets around him.

"Yes, it is. I think I got 4 hours of sleep yesterday." he shook his head an laughed with Naoko's smirk feeling a bit more at ease that Naoko seemed to be taking it well. Or at least, appearing that way. Although, the change of conversation did tell Sai that Naoko wasn't saying what he really felt either. Maybe that poked at the closeness they used to share. But wasn't it better this way?
"It's meat and beans ground and fried in a curry batter. I thought you might enjoy something like that." The smile continued and he enjoyed watching it upon Naoko's lips even if e was sure that Naoko had placed it there for his benefit. "Oishii desu yo!" He exclaimed as he munched one of the appetizers. The Indian food really did take the edge off.
"Mmm...that's the problem. When you neglect to..." he answered but he didn't press. It was up to Naoko to change Naoko. He had realized that all he could do was watch because nothing he could do would change his little brother.
"Maybe we should plan to go to the movies or something. I'd like to see a few of the shows brought over from America. Iron Man 2 would be fun." Sai did like action and adventures shows far better than comedy and drama. He enjoyed the fast pace and excitement plus the chance to listen to English speakers. "I know. You're still my little Ko-kun" he said with a grin as he attempted to bring himself back to life from the depression Naoko/Hayato and that mess had brought him.
"I guess I will have to look the man up then. If he's that much of a fan magnet and giving you a job to boot. Just make sure you're playing your piano and not watching his a** when you're on stage. I'd hate to hear that you forgot yourself and missed a key." He chuckled a bit even though the thought of Shou brought a mixed feeling from deep within. He couldn't control Shou's responses and most of the time he didn't want to think what Shou did or didn't do. In fact, he never remembered when Shou showed up or left. The only thing he could do was go with second hand information.
As for Sai, he wouldn't mind if Hikari ya Yami disappeared. It was Hayato's legacy and one he hoped Naoko could get beyond one day. Although he wouldn't say that to Naoko because that would only cause problems that he didn't want.

Without a moment of hesitation, Naoko picked up another of the meaty bean appetizers and popped it into his mouth. He really did have a passion for curried foods... "I was thinking... that maybe we could rent a beach house this summer too." the younger brother replied, thinking for a moment. "You know, then we could rent a yacht, spend a few of the days on the sea and the nights back at the beach. We could have a bon-fire... roast fish and sweet potatoes... you know, like we used to in high school."
Laughing softly, Naoko shrugged, "Then again, both of our schedules would really need to be open for that... but I've been thinking that getting away from the city for a little while might help me clear a few things up. And... well... it'd be nice to hang out with you and NOT think about work the next day. Some stress free relaxation for the both of us."
Of course, the entire time that NAKO had been talking, he'd been avoiding his brother's gaze. Mainly because he realized how childish the idea sounded. They were both adults... did they really have the time or the luxury to go sailing for a weekend? Then there was the fact that Naoko didn't want to say that it'd be a good way to reconnect... because that could be taken a myriad of ways. The blond would have meant that they could find the closeness of brothers once more, not in a sensual physical way, but in a mental way. He was just afraid that Sai wouldn't take a comment like that the way Naoko meant it...
The pianist nearly spit out his chai when he heard Sai's quip about Shou's a**. "Look... he's gorgeous and all but, you know I try not to mix business and pleasure anymore. It can get... messy..." 'Yes, very messy... just look what you've gotten yourself into now with Nakai and Ryuu!' his subconscious screamed at him. 'And of course, seeing your vocalist ALSO got you into this Hayato mess in the first place...' But Naoko pressed forward. "I'm a professional. I don't want to screw it up... again... Besides, I'd die of embarrassment if I missed a note on stage."
"All of those promo and merchandising matters, I'll leave in your capable hands, Ruki-san." Narcissus whispered as his fingers flew expertly along his manager's tense muscles.
In fact, Akihiko hadn't really realized how tense Izzy was until he got to the man's back. Even though the megane-clad man was seemingly enjoying the massage... he was still tense.
"Just relax, Ruki-san..." came that soft deep tone as the musician continued, working on the muscles from the middle of Izzy's back and outward, smoothing through the muscle and nerves in an attempt to push out the man's tension. "After all... I don't do this for just ANYONE." he teased.
Quickly, Narcissus pushed himself back, placing his hands at the small of Izzy's spine and carefully rubbing that area. Of course he had noticed Izzy's blush. After all, he was trying damn hard not to blush himself... he was in such a precarious position.
So tempting...
One hand moved up Izzy's back, along the spine, pushing just enough to cause a pleasurable pressure to the nerves bundled there. He also heard a slight pop, meaning that Izzy probably could do with a new visit to a chiropractor. His other hand however, remained on Izzy's back, just above the lip of his pajama pants.
Even as Akihiko tried to concentrate on giving his manager a relaxing massage... Narcissus was just dying for a more intimate time...

((Since I'm a little fail with time, before I post, I kindly ask for a synopsis. Just a couple questions that I don't have the time to read through six pages for. Sorry! >_<
1. Where is Naoko and what state is he in? (i.e. What is he doing? Drunk? Sex? xD)
2. I'm figuring that the time of day is dawn, right?
3. What's up with Izzy and Koyasu at the moment? Where are they? (I don't need a long explanation. I just need where they are and what they're doing (sex, talking in a car, talking in an office, etc...)
4. Anything else you think I ought to know?
Sorry that I haven't been on recently. Finals were here, and I was studying. ANYWAYS, finals are OVER and I'm BACK!))

(( Answers:
1. Naoko decided he'd text Sai after realizing that Hayato was not just going to wake. He is currently at a restaurant called the Blue Elephant with Sai eating Indian food.
NOTE: Ryu has just come to the hospital to search for Naoko and is sitting in Hayato's room at the moment.
2. For Izzy and Koy, its morning hours just turning Lunch. Naoko and Sai, its Lunch time. Ryu...about lunch time.
3. Izzy rescued Koy from his injuries he got from the bodyguard at Asato's home. Finding that Koy had not place to go, he has said he could stay with him (at his Loft) because he takes care of his stars. Currently, Koy has convinced Izzy that he needs to de-stress and is giving him a neck/back and shoulder massage. Where it goes from there is a good question. (They are still at the Loft) -tee hee-
4. Umm....Asato and Chairman Koyasu are currently taking part in a news conference since Asato has been introduced as the next in line to take over Ohayou Productions.
4b. Shou, has decided he will perform at the Charity for disadvantaged Teens. Koyasu-san and Izzy have decided to try to get a slot for Nakai and Koy at that event to perform as well.
I think that covers most things right now. ))

"Mmm...hmm...sure...I'll take care of it." he answered but his mind was nowhere near his work at the moment. In fact, his body was telling him that every muscle wanted to have that tender attention...NOW. As he lay there his mind justified the whole thing out - Why couldn't he get just one massage like this? Why couldn't he enjoy it for just a brief moment? Sure he could! This was completely innocent.
"Ahh...mm...that spot." his body trembled when the fingers uncovered a particularly tight knot in his mid back. He couldn't help but just stretch a little like a content cat just to let all the muscles in his back feel those delicious fingertips.
All the while he tried to forget that the man sitting on top of him was one of his Stars. And for a brief moment, he wondered if Nakai's hands were as skilled. That thought caused him to bite his bottom lip because it really was a wicked notion. He really shouldn't think that way!
The tempting suggestion to relax was hard to resist when mixed with that rich voice. And his lips accidentally betrayed a smile when he was teased about being one of the few to receive this treatment. "Mm...I think I'm happy to be 'Someone' today." he muttered back in response even as his eye stared to flutter shutter. His hair drifted across his glasses as he relaxed thinking only of how good those sensual hands were upon his body.
A slow soft groan of pleasure slipped from Ruki's lips when Narcissus worked into the small of his back. His fingers gripped along the comfortable cotton sheets a bit more as his back arched just a little as it was popped into place. "Aahhhh...right there...don't stop." His body was erotically responsive to the massage even if not intentional or realized by himself.

The idea actually sounded like so much fun that Sai wanted to jump on the opportunity but truth be told, it would be difficult to arrange. Even so he said, "Maybe we can some how arrange it once your band issues have been resolved. I wouldn't want to take you out of the limelight when you're about to start something new."
It wasn't hard to notice the averted gaze and that meant either Naoko didn't mean it and wanted to find something to say, or, Naoko wasn't sure about the idea in general. Either way, Sai could envision everything Naoko had mentioned even if he'd have to fight himself from laying a finger on his brother beyond a warm hug. Seeing Naoko in just a bathing suit stretched upon a yacht would be tempting.
However, when Naoko almost spewed his chai, Sai grinned broadly, "Oh you've thought about his a** alright. I can tell. True, you wouldn't want the entire audience to see your blush." He teased just a little and was thankful that Naoko was thinking that way about Shou. It was a relief in a way for several reasons. "Keeping it professional is probably your best bet. Who knows, he might already be seeing someone."
It was then lunch arrived with a mixed of tasty food filled bowls - Lamb Vindaloo, Curried Chicken, Mattar Paneer, Aloo Matar, and several stuffed parthas. The waitress spread out platters in front of them and it was pretty obvious that the larger bowl filled with Saag Paneer was all Sai's.
"Oh, save room for dessert! I've been dying to have some Kheer." Sai said as he spooned up his very favorite food and put a bit of it on his plate before taking a tad of the others. He really did have a weakness for Indian food.
So far so good, they had been able to avoid talking about the tender topics of the day. They were just acting like - brothers. Although, Sai did wonder what Naoko planned to do about Ryu, however, he wouldn't ask. He was going to try and keep himself from bringing those topics up.
