Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ryu blinked. Then blinked some more.
"Oi! Of course I mind you saying that about me! Teme!!!"
The singer attacked Naoko with tickles, going for all the tender spots, nipping him with kisses all over his face.
"You are so mean to me!" he squealed playfully.

Sighing, Ryu collapsed onto the floor beside Naoko. It had been a great day, aside from two little instances. If those hadn't happened, then tonight would have been perfect in every way.
"Ok ok...if you swear." he poked Naoko in the side before wrapping an arm over him.
For a moment, he just looked at Naoko, so happy to be beside this angel he had only just met,
Why, he couldn't say, but he began to sing, velvet voice in perfect tune.
It was a song by Gackt, a song he used to sing to himself when he was lonely, before he got his recording deal.
"Furisosogu yuki wo abinagara shizuka ni yorisou futari
Karamiau yubisaki ga ai wo tashikameatteita yo ne
Kogoeru samusa de kono omoi ga samenai you ni
Shiroi toiki ni nosete kimi ni todoketai kono yoru ga owaru mae ni
Mune ni nokoru nukumori mo ubatta kuchibiru mo wasure wa shinai kara
Tooku hanaretemo, mou nakusanai kono ai dake wa
Hateshinai yume wo oinagara futari de aruitekita ne
Futofuzakete kuchi ni shita
"Hitori de nigedashiteshimaou ka na..."
Utsumuita kimi no sono hitomi ni koboreru namida
Joudan dakara namida fuitewaratte yo, akirame wa shinai kara
Kimi ga kureta yasashisa mo kowaresou na setsunasa mo wasure wa shinai kara
Tooku hanaretemo, mou nakusanai kono ai dake wa
Omoi ga yuki ni kawaru nara ima sugu kimi no basho made todokeru koto dekiru no ni
Aenakunattemo aishitsuzuketai kimi dake wo
Mune ni nokoru nukumori mo ubatta kuchibiru mo wasure wa shinai kara
Tooku hanaretemo, mou nakusanai kono ai dake wa..."

Ryu smiled. His tenshi was sleeping, and even lovelier, he had sang him to sleep.
Slowly and carefully, Ryu picked him up and moved him into the bedroom, tucking him into the large western style bed before taking off his clothes and throwing on a pair of boxers and a t-shirt and crawling into the bed beside him, holding him close. He didn't drift off, though, but instead chose to lay there, watching his lover sleep soundly.

Kawamura Ishi

It was not the fact that the man had tripped over his feet, but rather the sudden warmth of the man's breath on Ishi's neck, that caused him to whip his head around to look at him. The sudden movement caused the world to tilt, and Ishi threw out a hand against the pavement to keep himself upright. The man in question was, without a doubt, very attractive. Ishi had seen people with blonde hair, but never up close. He wondered whether it was natural or not, and whether, if he were to touch the man's hair, it would be coarse or smooth.

Ishi's laughter died in his throat as suddenly as it had begun, as the raindrops began soaking through his hair. It was the oddest sensation, the way they sat, cold on top of his head for a moment, before dribbling down to his scalp. Though the sensation was unique, Ishi still disliked rain. It was too cold, too depressing, and sometimes when it was very humid, he could feel the air pressure pushing against his eardrums with an almost tangible hum.

The man seemed to be looking at him in that way people had when they wanted you to answer. Ishi had not even realized he had been spoken to. He hoped that it had not been important. He began rubbing his fingers together with hand he was not using to prop himself upright.

K a i - H i g u r i


Kai was just about to ask if Ishi was all right when Kazuo approached. Kai looked up, his hair already getting soaked through by the rain, only serving to make him look more handsome. "Nothing of consequence." He smiled. "Just wondering why this handsome man is sitting out here in the rain."
He looked over at Ishi and rephrased his answer. "Well, the man in question is now standing." He smiled at the both of them, then turned to Kazuo. "Better get a move on if you don't want to get soaked through." Kai noticed for just a little bit how cute Kazuo looked, but had enough mind to turn his attention back to Ishi, who was teetering back and forth from being drunk.
"Dear God..."
Now that Kai was stuck up in this whole situation, he knew that he probably wouldn't be able to leave Ishi alone until he was somewhere safe and taken care of.
If worst came to worst, Kai's giant house was close by.

K a i - H i g u r i


Kai's weight was immediately supporting Ishi the moment Ishi fell on him. Kai had been expecting Ishi to fall any moment anyways. Seeing the man once again in silent hysterics, Kai patted him on the shoulder before asking the drunk man, "Do you live near here?"
Kai figured that the least he could do was return this man home. But the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Kai finally settled on the fact that they would go to whichever house was the closest. Kai really didn't want to get sick in this rain, and if Ishi got sick, Kai would blame it on himself anyways.

It was getting later in the night...at this point actually it was getting earlier in the morning.
Ryu couldn't sleep. Actually, he could, but he really didn't want to.
Naoko was still sound asleep beside him, and he couldn't take his eyes off of that gorgeous face. The vocalist honestly felt like he could lay like this forever, just watching Naoko.
Softly, he began to sing the song again, the same one he had sung to Naoko that put the pianist to sleep to begin with.
Slowly, tears of happiness trickled down his cheeks as the melody floated off into the night.

((He's deaf, but since he's never heard sound, he's only ever learned to say a few words. ))
Kawamura Ishi

"No," It summed up both of Kai's questions pretty well, and with only that one word. He didn't know whether to be put out by, or grateful that Kai was speaking more slowly. It was a little insulting, but he wasn't sure he would be able to keep up with anything more complicated at the moment.
Usually he was pretty good at passing as someone who could who could hear. Ishi recalled that he had once convinced an old boyfriend that he was only partially deaf for month before the boy had figured it out. That had been funny.
Ishi shivered. He actually had his jacket and he was freezing, he wasn't sure how Kazuo could stand it. His wet hair had fallen in his face again, and he pushed it off with less patience than the first time.
