Chapter 3
The Brave and the Timid
Sakura had been very sincere. Tetsu was a little less worried, since after recording the album he would have some time to look for another drummer in case Sakura left them.
“Where do you live, Sakura-kun?” Ken asked casually, smoking his cigarette and offering one to Sakura, who took it and thanked him.
“About five blocks south from here.” Sakura answered.
“Ah... Good. We live around 10 blocks east from here.” Ken commented smiling.
“Twelve blocks and a half.” Hyde yelled from the studio door.
Ken shrugged.
“You all live together?” Sakura asked putting on a black woolen cap.
“Yeah.”
“Him too?” Sakura pointed in Hyde’s direction.
“Yeah.” Tetsu cut in before Ken said something that would hurt Hyde even more.
“You’re either too nice, or you have a bad karma, guys...” Sakura chuckled. Ken laughed heartily.
“He’s a good cook, though...” Ken answered.
“Ah... I knew there had to be a reason.” Sakura laughed with him.
“Tet-chaaaaan!!!” Hyde yelled from the door. “What’s taking you so fucking long?!?!”
“Haido, come over here, please.” Tetsu sighed and called him.
“I don’t want to.” Hyde snapped.
“Don’t be such a brat. You said you’d do as I say, so come over here.”
Hyde reluctantly walked towards them. As he came closer, his steps were heavier and his face became redder.
“Apologize to Sakura-san...” Tetsu ordered.
“Nani?!”
“You’ve been behaving like a brat. Apologize and show him you can be a professional.”
Hyde gaped looking at Tetsu. It was so humiliating.
“Gomen.” He snapped.
“Say, ‘I’m sorry, Sakura-san. I’ll be a good guy from now on and I’ll behave like the professional I claim to be’.” Tetsu corrected him.
“Ditto.” Hyde snapped and looked away.
“Don’t worry, Tetsu... vocalists are usually like this.” Sakura laughed.
“Not our Haido. He’s a sweet, sensitive guy.” Tetsu said grabbing Hyde by the shoulders. In fact, he wanted to strangle him.
“Since when?” Ken asked and was hit on the ribs by Tetsu’s elbow.
“He is! He’s just having a bad day today, but he’s nice and sensitive!” Tetsu answered worriedly looking at Sakura.
“Daijobu, Tetsu-kun. I won’t run away because he’s got a bad temper.” Sakura laughed.
“I promise he will be overly nice tomorrow...” Tetsu sighed and then turned his head to glare at Hyde, who stubbornly looked away from them.
The four members of L’Arc en Ciel walked out of the studio, said goodbye and headed for their homes.
“Ano... Haido... We have to talk, you know...” Tetsu started, cracking his knuckles and trying to hold himself not to grab Hyde by the neck and choke him.
“I hate him. How dare he criticize me!!” Hyde suddenly burst out in fury.
“He didn’t. He said you have a wonderful voice and great looks.” Tetsu said between teeth, still glaring at Hyde.
“Yeah, but he said I have a rotten temper.”
“So? He said the truth!!” Ken replied in a matter-of-fact way.
“I just can’t believe you, guys!! I thought you were my friends!!” Hyde threw his arms in the air, visibly annoyed.
“He’s been nice and polite. So be nice and polite to him too.” Tetsu demanded.
“Fine! I will! I will do it only for you, Tet-chan! Not cuz I like him or anything!” Hyde replied angrily and wearily. Tetsu felt he could melt when he heard it. “I will do it only for you, Tet-chan...” those words rang inside his head, warming his heart all the way home.
They arrived into their apartment, and both Tetsu and Ken watched Hyde act angry and hit things around him.
“He’s such a brat... this is all because of his big ego... you shouldn’t flatter him so much.” Ken commented concerned.
“I know...” Tetsu sighed. “He’ll be OK, he needs a little spoiling and he’ll be his usual calm self again...” Tetsu knew that had he not been so tired he would be willing to spoil Hyde as much as necessary.
“You want me to cheer him up?” Ken asked.
“Oh, please do.” Tetsu replied. He was weary and all he wanted was a warm bath to soak and relax his muscles.
“Yo, Haido...” Ken called him. “Wanna wrestle me?”
Tetsu was startled... “Since when fighting will make an angry man calm?” He wondered.
“Get out of my way!” Hyde answered yelling in anger.
Ken caught him by the waist and tried to throw him on the couch, but Hyde entangled his feet with Ken’s making him lose his balance, and then taking him by the shoulders he caused him to fall and hit the ground hard.
“Oww!! That hurt, man!”
“Serves you right.”
Tetsu watched them amused. “I’m betting for Haido!” He announced.
“I’ll wipe his sorry ass off!” Ken bellowed and got up trying to get Haido. They both assumed attack positions and the fight was obviously coming. Hyde looked overly mad, his eyes red with fury.
Ken dodged the first kick Hyde threw, and tried to hit Hyde on the stomach, but in turn Hyde dodged the hit and taking Ken by the neck threw him to the floor again.
“Ha! You should know better than messing with me!”
“Where did you learn that, Haido?” Tetsu asked amused.
“I know Kung Fu!! I am a Shao-Lin black belt!”
“No fair!” Ken protested. I didn’t know you were that good!
“HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Baka!!!” Hyde laughed evilly and loudly, and Ken took advantage of it to pull from his legs and cause him to fall, then he jumped and threw himself on top of Hyde almost crushing him.
“Let go!! Let go!!” Hyde yelled.
“Gee! Haido! Smarten up! I’ll lose my bet!” Tetsu said gasping for air from laughing so much.
Hyde managed to squeeze his leg between Ken’s causing him to yelp in pain, then they both got up.
“Well done, Haido! Make me a rich man!” Tetsu encouraged amused.
“Shut up, Tet-chan! What are you suddenly, a cheerleader?!” Hyde protested.
Ken pushed Hyde against the wall, which startled him. “Don’t be so harsh to your fans!” Ken protested.
“Yeah, I think I’ll encourage Ken-kun instead...” Tetsu said laughing.
“Hontou?” Hyde asked dropping his defense to stare at Tetsu in disappointment, and Ken took him down to the floor easily.
“You lost, Haido!” Tetsu yelled gasping for air, since he was choking from laughter.
“Hmphhh...” Hyde struggled to get away from Ken’s grab.
“You know why you lost, Hide-chan?” Ken said as he got up and tried to dodge Hyde’s attempts to punch him or kick him. “Cuz you are such a sissy for Tet-chan!!”
Tetsu blushed and looked away.
“Chigau yo! Baka! I lost cuz I’m mad and tired, and I can’t focus my chi!!”
“Tet-chan and Hide-chan playing in the band! First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes Hai-chan with a baby carriage!” Ken sung amused on top of his lungs, while Hyde tried to kick him.
“Yeah!! I will marry Tet-chan cuz Tet-chan is sweet, unlike you. You are the worst stinking shit!!” Hyde screamed furiously.
“Now that hurt, Haido...” Ken mocked a sad face, and Hyde believed him.
“Uh... gomen, Ken-chan... I ... I only said that to get back at you. I think you are a nice guy.” Hyde said softly and walked over to Ken to pat his back.
“I know you do.” Ken smiled and patted Hyde’s head.
Hyde smiled and hugged Ken squeezing him. “Come on over, Tet-chan!”
“Nah... I don’t want to ruin your romantic mood...” Tetsu answered amused, and Hyde stretched to grab him by an arm and hug him too.
“I promise I will be a professional. Now I can’t promise I won’t try to get back at Sakura...”
“Please, Haido...” Tetsu protested.
“But it will be a soft revenge...” Hyde smirked. He had made up a plan of his own.
Next day Tetsu dragged Hyde who was half-asleep into the rehearsing studio. They were the first ones to arrive. Ken had spent the night at his girlfriend’s place and he was sure to come from there.
“We didn’t even have breakfast!!” Hyde protested, in a slurry sleepy voice, eyes barely open.
“You can’t pull out the same thing you did yesterday, Haido!”
“I am being a good boy!!! You must treat me better!” Hyde protested again.
“Well, keep behaving, now warm your throat, let’s wait for Ken and Sakura.”
“Warm? With what? Will you make coffee?”
“Sing something.” Tetsu answered. His skills in the cooking field were the closest thing to zero.
“What for?”
“Just sing!” Tetsu urged him while trying to connect his bass guitar to another amplifier, the one he usually used had gone bad.
“lalalalala...” Hyde shrugged.
“Haido!!”
“What do I sing, fearless leader?”
“Sing Claustrophobia.”
“Why that one?”
“Ohhh Sing anything you want!! Just sing!!”
“OK, OK, Claustrophobia, then.”
Hyde took a guitar from the studio, plugged it in and began to play and sing. Suddenly they heard a loud insistent ringing at the door.
“Must be Ken. He sure forgot the keys.” Hyde said.
“No, the one forgetting the keys is you, Haido...” Tetsu said and walked out of the paneled room and into the lobby to open the door to Sakura.
“Ohayo!” Tetsu greeted smiling. Sakura smiled back.
“The guitar is out of tune... doesn’t sound like Ken-kun...” Sakura commented surprised.
Hyde heard him and got irritated. He already wanted to punch him, but grabbed control of himself. “I’ll get you down to begging and pleading, Sakura... you’ll be at my feet!” He thought.
“Oh... maybe you’ll want to teach me how to tune it...” Hyde said aloud to Sakura, making a forced sweet voice and flashing him one of his beautiful smiles.
Sakura gulped. Indeed he was gorgeous. He looked at Hyde who was tucking his long, brown wavy hair to one side and staring at him, legs crossed, smiling seductively in a half pout.
“That’s not my job.” Sakura answered and taking off his coat he sat behind the drums.
“I used to give drums classes, you know?” Hyde said turning to look at him.
“Don’t be such a liar!” Tetsu answered while hanging his bass guitar from his shoulder.
“It’s true, Tet-chan. I used to do that!” Hyde protested pouting adorably.
Sakura looked away and didn’t answer.
“Want me to show you?” Hyde asked. “Please?”
“OK, go ahead.” Sakura answered, which surprised Tetsu.
“Thank you, Sakura-kun. You are so kind!” Hyde smiled in a pretended cute way.
He sat beside Sakura, who stood up to give him place.
“No, stay here.” Hyde asked. “I don’t take up much space. I would sit on your lap but Tet-chan would be mad...” He grinned and winked at him.
“Just make it fast, Haido. We need practice.” Tetsu said sharply.
“OK.” Hyde smiled at them. “Just watch me.”
Hyde began to hit the drums as well as he could, which wasn’t bad, but definitely not like Sakura. After 3 minutes, he finished and looked at them.
“So? How was I?” Hyde asked smiling eagerly.
“It was very pretty, Haido. Now go back to sing.” Tetsu said pointing into the microphone direction.
“You used to teach... with that little?” Sakura asked laughing.
Hyde felt again like he was going to punch him, he looked up at him and bit his lip before he said something that would ruin his plan.
“Uh... maybe I could take lessons from you...” Hyde said trying to conceal an annoyed voice.
“Uh... maybe... it will cost you.” Sakura grinned at him.
“I’m willing to pay...” Hyde tried to seduce him cheekily. Tetsu realized of what Hyde was up to and got horrified. Hyde was trying to seduce Sakura and make fun of him just like he had done with those jerks the day before.
“What with, Haido? You don’t have money!” Tetsu protested and suddenly shut up. He had given Haido just the cue he needed, without realizing.
“Uh... well... what would you like to take for pay, Sakura?” Hyde laid his hand on Sakura’s left leg, and Sakura shivered.
“I don’t know. I’ll think about it.”
Sakura sat behind his drums and tried to think of anything but Hyde, but the fact was, Hyde was impossible to ignore.
Hyde walked back to his high stool and took his guitar again, then tuned it sharply, and once he finished he smiled and winked at Tetsu.
“OK. Let’s go once again. Claustrophobia.” Tetsu said sighing in annoyance.
They began the song and suddenly the phone rang.
“I’ll get it.” Hyde said and walked out to the lobby in order to pick up the phone. They didn’t bother to close the room door since they were the only ones there.
“Moshi, moshi?”
“Haido-kun! It’s Ken!”
“Ken-chan! Where are you?”
“Uh... at the hospital...”
“What?!?!?! What happened to you?!!” Hyde screamed and Tetsu ran towards the phone.
“I guess I drank a little too much and I tripped and fell. Sprained my ankle...” Ken sounded apologetic.
“Baka!!!” Hyde yelled.
“Please, write down the address, they won’t let me go home unless someone comes to pick me up.” Ken said.
“Give me pencil and paper.” Hyde asked Tetsu, and as soon as Tetsu handed it to him he jotted down the address.
“OK. I got it. We’ll be there as soon as possible. Stupid moron!” Hyde said.
“Thank you, sweetie.” Ken answered and hanged up.
Hyde explained the situation to Tetsu, while Sakura stayed a few steps behind.
“I’ll go. You two just stay here.” Tetsu said, and grabbed his coat and wallet. He couldn’t send Sakura, and he thought Hyde, small and frail as he was, wouldn’t be able to help Ken much.
“Hey, man... here. Take a cab.” Sakura handed him money.
“I’m OK. I have money...” Tetsu lied.
“Take it. Please.” Sakura insisted.
“Thanks.” Tetsu bowed and took the money, then he rushed out of the studio. “I know I will regret this...” Tetsu mumbled to himself as he ran into the streets looking for a cab. “There is no worse thing than leaving those two alone.”
Sakura stayed sitting behind his drums, examining them carefully, and trying to hide the nervous pain rising in his stomach. He didn’t want to look at Hyde.
Hyde was sinking on a couch, staring fixedly at him. Sakura could feel his eyes burning him, scrutinizing him, calling him from afar... tempting him.
Hyde didn’t move from his comfortable seat, nor dropped his insistent look. He languidly smoked a cigarette and blew the smoke slowly, holding the filter in his slim fingers and rubbing his lower lip with his thumb. Indeed Sakura was good looking... It wasn’t such a big sacrifice to hit on him...
Sakura nervously dropped a stick, and bowed to reach it.
“Do I make you nervous?” Hyde asked with a wicked tone, tilting his head to the left and tucking a strand of long, brown wavy hair away from his face.
“Why? Cuz you smoke on a couch?” Sakura snapped trying to sound cool and calm.
“Cuz we are alone...” Hyde replied softly.
Sakura grinned and began hitting his drums, trying to think of anything but Hyde.
“Oh... What a strong guy... strong hands... strong beat...” Hyde said in a loud voice, but the drums got louder. He propped himself up and walked slowly towards the microphone. Then holding it together with the cigarette he started to hum in a sexy murmur against the microphone head, his lips brushing it, his body moving sensually around it, his legs stroking each other slowly, his arms wrapped around his waist, his voice deeper and huskier at every second. Sakura lost his rhythm watching him.
“See...? I do make you nervous.” Hyde said grinning as he turned his face to stare at Sakura amused.
“Yeah, I’m beginning to suspect you want to hit on me...” Sakura snapped without looking.
“I do.”
“Nani?”
“You are so good looking...” Hyde said tilting his head to one side and biting his lower lip sensuously.
“So... so desu ne... You’re good looking too.” Sakura looked away blushing.
“I know.” Hyde grinned and walked slowly towards Sakura. The drummer’s heart began to beat faster with every step the vocalist took. Hyde sat down beside him.
“You want my cigarette?” Hyde offered smiling sensually.
“I’ve mine.” Sakura refused.
“Wanna share a smoke with me?”
“Oh... OK.” Sakura looked down and fumbled in his shirt pocket. Hyde stared at him as the taller man took out a cigarette and lit it. Hyde leaned his head on Sakura’s shoulder, and Sakura began to cough.
“Wow! I certainly make you nervous!” Hyde smiled blowing the smoke from his own cigarette.
Sakura blushed, he raised his head and looked at Hyde who was smiling impishly at him. Sakura gaped in disbelief and suddenly got the courage to do what he had wanted to do since he first saw Hyde. He took the vocalist’s cigarette away from his lips and put it out by pressing it with his right foot against the floor. Hyde protested and Sakura took his delicate face in his both hands silencing his protest with an eager kiss.
Hyde jumped up and took a couple steps backwards. He was scared suddenly.
“What? Didn’t you want it?” Sakura asked evilly.
Hyde was shocked since he didn’t expect Sakura to act so fast.
“I... I... I was... playing...”
“Oh, pity... I was not.”
“I... I... never kissed a guy before...”
“Happy first time.” Sakura grinned. Now Hyde was the one looking nervous.
“I mean... uh...” Hyde stepped backwards as he saw Sakura get up from his seat behind the drums and walk towards him grinning mischievously.
“Wait... wait... Sakura...” Hyde protested. Sakura grabbed him by the waist and pushed him against a wall, pinning him against it, his right leg between Hyde’s.
“Now that you know what it’s like... let’s do it well...” Sakura urged Hyde.
“No! No, wait!” Hyde protested but Sakura kissed him hard, violently, pushing his tongue between Hyde’s lips, savoring every part of his mouth and sucking from his lips eagerly.
Hyde’s legs began to shake, he wanted to push Sakura away but he couldn’t. His hands were being held up against the wall by the drummer; his head immobilized by the strong kiss. His mouth was prisoner of the other man’s lips and tongue, that moved at will inside his, prancing slowly, tasting him, giving him goosebumps all over his body... filling him with pleasure. Hyde stopped fighting inside his head and let himself go with it. It was the best kiss he could remember, poisoning, inebriating, hypnotizing, and definitely arousing him... Sakura’s left leg brushed against Hyde’s groin and Hyde could feel himself lose his self-control and resistance.
Sakura felt Hyde drop his ward, and let his arms go.
“Wrap your arms around me...” Sakura asked whispering softly against Hyde’s lips, and Hyde obeyed, without thinking. Sakura made his kiss deep and hard again.
He took Hyde by the waist and lifted him slightly, then pulling the small man’s legs apart, he sat him on his lap, back against the wall, waist pressed against him, legs dangling loosely at Sakura’s sides. Sakura pushed his groin against Hyde’s and heard him moan. All traces of fear and opposition in the longhaired singer had vanished. He was succumbing to the sensuous feast, unable and unwilling to escape. Hyde had let go and began to enjoy.
Sakura slowly broke the kiss and stared into the vocalist’s face. Hyde’s eyes were closed and his mouth was partially open, still blindly looking for the other man’s lips to continue to deliver him such indescribable pleasure. Suddenly Hyde opened his eyes and saw Sakura smile a couple of centimeters away from his face.
He blushed.
“You are hell of a good kisser...” Hyde whispered embarrassed. His sense was slowly coming back to him. He looked down and saw the position he was in.
“Ara? What were you going to do to me?”
“If I had wanted, I’d have done it already. You weren’t resisting much.” Sakura said wickedly.
“Ahh... yeah...” Hyde blushed and lowered his face. Sakura lifted it with his index finger and thumb.
“You want me to?” Sakura asked.
“Ahh... I’m scared...”
“I know you are.” Sakura said kissing the tip of Hyde’s nose. “All your cheekiness and guts seem to have vanished...”
“And Tet-chan tachi might come at any minute.” Hyde went on.
“So... your place or mine?” Sakura asked.
“I don’t have a place, Sakura...” Hyde answered. “I live with the guys.”
“Then, mine.” Sakura said and lifting Hyde he turned and put the small- framed man on the floor.
Hyde was trembling in fear and anticipation, unable to move or think straight.
“Take your stuff, and let’s go.”
“Un.” Hyde nodded and grabbed his coat and bag. He locked the studio door behind him, and staring at the floor he followed Sakura.
“Ne... Haido... You hungry?” Sakura asked, knowing the answer he would get. He wanted to calm his lover-to-be down.
“Uh? Hai!” Hyde was indeed hungry.
“I’ve plenty of food at home...”
“Really?? Then let’s hurry!!” Hyde squealed happily and hung himself from Sakura’s arm.
“You’ll give me food?? You will?? You will??” Hyde asked eagerly.
“Yeah, if you want to eat.”
“Yes!! Yes, I do!”
“I can cook something for you then, pretty thing.”
“Ohhh!!! You will cook for me??” Hyde was overly happy.
“Yeah.”
“You are so cool, Sakura!” Hyde said squeezing Sakura’s arm.
“You are so easy to please, Haido...” Sakura thought. “Yet, so difficult to understand...”
Both musicians arrived into Sakura’s house. Hyde entered the small apartment looking at everything eagerly.
“Ne... Sakura-chan...” Hyde started.
“Chan??”
Hyde grinned looking at him.
“You live alone?”
“Yeah.”
“Your place is small, but cozy. I like it.”
“Oh, thanks.”
“Where’s the kitchen?”
Sakura smiled and took Hyde by the waist, then led him up to the kitchen. Hyde tried to move towards the refrigerator, but Sakura pulled him away from it.
“I’ll give you a tour around the house.” Sakura said smiling.
“Oh!” Hyde started to laugh, and posed imitating a tourist, mocking a gaijin accent.
“Can I take pictures, Sakura-san?” Hyde played the tourist role laughing.
“No, you can’t. This is a restricted area.”
“Oh, how lucky I am to be allowed here!”
“Yes, you are. Here is the bathroom...”
“Ah... very nice.” Hyde answered in English.
“And here...” Sakura said leading Hyde by the waist inside a small, dark room. “... is the bedroom.”
Hyde shook mildly and smiled.
“Ah... very nice too!” He said in English again. “When do we eat?” He went on in Japanese.
“After we finish what we started...” Sakura said in a deep husky voice and kissing the smaller man’s neck he pushed him onto the bed. Hyde looked at him startled.
“No... No, wait! No hurting me!” Hyde pleaded.
Sakura’s hands held him against the bed by the waist, and his face was getting closer to his.
“Stop! No! I can defend myself!” Hyde yelled scared.
“From my kiss?” Sakura asked amused.
“Uh...” Hyde couldn’t answer and blinked for a second, then he let Sakura kiss him wildly... even more wildly than before.
Sakura’s hands moved slowly, brushing Hyde’s skin under his clothes, playing with his fingertips on Hyde’s soft skin, and brushing the tight nipples under the vocalist’s shirt. Hyde moaned inside the kiss with every stroke Sakura delivered him, and soon the small, long-haired singer started caressing Sakura’s stomach under his shirt.
“Take it off, Sakura...” Hyde asked in a soft whisper, taking advantage of a brief gasp Sakura took. The drummer took off his shirt and unhooked his pants, Hyde slipped one little hand under them, and caressed his aroused manhood giggling.
“You are so turned on... by me?” Hyde asked sheepishly.
“You are turned on too...” Sakura groaned, caressing Hyde’s crutch over his leather pants.
“Yes, I am...” Hyde laughed. “Keep kissing me, please...”
“I want more than kissing, now...” Sakura replied tickling Hyde’s ear with his soft whisper. Hyde laughed nervously.
“OK. You take the lead...”
Sakura took Hyde’s pants off anxiously, together with his boxers, and began caressing the small man’s arousal eagerly, hearing him moan.
“What... what will you do to me, Sakura...?” Hyde asked between gasps and moans, rubbing his own groin and entangling his fingers with Sakura’s. Sakura watched him turned on and smiled pleased.
“You will see...” Sakura whispered and pulled Hyde’s legs apart in a sudden move, Hyde resisted at first, propping his head up and opening his eyes wide.
“Daijobu, Haido... don’t be afraid...” Sakura said with a soothing voice, and slowly began kissing his legs and licking the inner sides of the smaller man’s thighs.
“Un...un...” Hyde nodded and rested his head back on the bed. He could feel his lover roaming his lower body with ardent kisses and eager caresses, and he lost his mind letting his skin govern him... enjoying the sensuous delight Sakura was delivering him. Soon the taller man sunk his head between Hyde’s legs and presenting small pecks on his crotch he traced a trail of kisses up to the roaring small man’s arousal, Sakura’s hands held Hyde’s thighs strongly. The accumulated anticipation and tension in Hyde’s body were making him lose control of his acts, and his body responded to every touch ardently. As Sakura began to blow him, Hyde yelled out in pleasure.
Sakura’s eager tongue pranced along Hyde’s most tender parts, enticing him, playing with him, making him moan and yell. He roamed the sensitive skin around his groin slowly with his tongue hearing Hyde’s pleasure groans get louder. Then he caught his immobilized lover’s eager arousal between his lips and he began sucking from him gently feeling Hyde’s trembling hands caress his head, and run his fingers through his hair. Sakura increased his pace and Hyde arched up his body instinctively looking to hold on to that sweet delight, and trying to thrust into Sakura’s mouth; and Sakura pushed him down with it, without releasing his prey.
Hyde screamed and moaned in pleasure, his husky voice filled the room as he shook his head craving for more, wishing to make that moment last forever. Pleasure climbing up his body and running in his veins. Hyde could feel the strong beat on his temples as Sakura blew him harder while holding his legs up by the back of his knees. The tension arousing in Hyde’s body increased reaching a peak and causing him to explode peaking in orgasm with a loud scream of pleasure.
Sakura looked up, and glanced at Hyde, who had stopped shaking his head and fidgeted almost choking. The small man’s eyes were closed tightly and he grinned panting in the sweetest expression of abandon and pleasure.
The drummer smiled at him... He was so sweet and delicate. So frail and adorable... He released Hyde’s legs that fell limply to his sides, and took off his pants and underwear. Hyde’s eyes were still closed, he kept smiling. The small chest moved fast covered with sweat.
Sakura caressed Hyde’s testicles softly, and Hyde laughed amused.
“You are so great, Sakura...” Hyde gasped in between breaths.
“It’s not over yet, bishounen...”
“Huh?” Hyde was startled as he felt Sakura’s finger slowly slide inside him. He tried to move backwards, but Sakura pushed him down by the stomach.
“Easy... you’ll like it...” Sakura tried to calm him.
“W...Wait! Uh... wait... I...”
“Hush, little thing... easy... you won’t let me unsatisfied, will you?”
“Sakura, stop! Dame yo! I’ll blow you... I...” Hyde gasped in terror.
“Oh, I’ll take that as a promise... but later...” Sakura replied grinning.
“Uh... I’m a guy, Sakura!”
“I’ve noticed, Haido...” Sakura slowly slid another finger inside Hyde, which caused the vocalist to shriek and try to escape, but Sakura held him in place. Sakura could feel how soft and warm the petit man was inside... but he forced himself to work on him slowly. It was Hyde’s first time. And Sakura knew he would want encores.
“It will hurt! Sakura!” Hyde wailed. “Dame!” he screamed trying to kick his way out.
“It won’t hurt.” Sakura calmed him with a soothing voice, and restrained him. Then he took his fingers out of him and dug them into a small pot with a creamy substance he had on the night table. A few seconds later he resumed his finger work inside Hyde, who had given up fighting and moaned at the repeated touch.
“I’m scared... Sakura...” Hyde pleaded. “C...Can we stop...?”
“Hush, bishounen... Don’t be scared... I’ll be gentle.”
Sakura took his fingers off and holding Hyde’s legs apart and up, he slowly entered him, hearing him burst in a loud cry.
“Sa...!! Sakura!!!!!” Hyde bellowed as loud as his lungs allowed him, and twisted his upper body in pain.
“Easy, boy... easy...” Sakura repeated, trying to calm him down.
“It hurts!!!!!!!!” Hyde yelled shaking his head, panting and crying in pain.
“Shh... don’t cry... brave boys don’t cry...”
“But it hurts!!!!” Hyde kept yelling and tried to kick, uselessly, Sakura’s hold was very tight. The pain was shattering. He felt as if his body was going to be torn by Sakura’s member inside him. Tears were streaming down his face as he gasped. The pain was so deep he couldn’t even gather enough strength to go on screaming.
“Good boy... Relax... and you’ll enjoy it...”
Hyde gasped crying and tried with effort to do as Sakura said. The pain hardly diminished, and he could feel Sakura’s thrusting inside him, taking over his body and his mind. Hyde moaned and fidgeted, unable to stop crying, but slowly he began to enjoy the experience.
After a few minutes Sakura’s thrusting increased it’s pace. It was deeper, harder, stronger... faster. Hyde bit his lower lip, trying swallow in his desperate panting. His heart was beating against his chest as if it were going to jump out of it, and all his body was burning and covered in sweat. He held on to the headboard tightly, his nails almost sinking in the wood. His eyes pressed so tight it hurt. He began tasting the blood from his lips, the itchy sensation of tears on an open wound. Yet he knew he didn’t want Sakura to stop.
Sakura’s breathing was fast. He moaned loudly in utter delight as he pushed himself inside Hyde’s small, delicate body. He was sweating and his flesh, entwined with that of his lover, felt the agitation of electricity running up and down his whole self, nesting at his nape, knotting at his stomach, and then pulsating to be released under his waist.
“Relax... more...” Sakura urged Hyde between gasps. Hyde couldn’t control his body anymore. And suddenly felt a strong, deep thrust inside him that caused him to yell out crying, his scream melting with Sakura’s own. Sakura came inside Hyde and dropped himself on top of him, nesting his face on the vocalist’s neck, then he slowly began withdrawing from inside him.
Hyde cried profusely, curled up and naked on Sakura’s bed as Sakura got dressed.
“Ne... Haido... don’t say you didn’t like it...”
Hyde kept crying.
“OK. I’ll feed you. That will make you stop crying.”
Hyde didn’t move and kept crying.
Sakura sat beside him and caressed his forehead.
“What happens, pretty one?”
“Brute!” Hyde answered.
“I hurt you?”
“Yeah!” Hyde shouted.
“You forgive me?”
“I... think so...” Hyde said softly.
“You want to do it again, some time?”
Hyde sobbed. “Yeah... but be more careful with me...”
“Un. Wakatta. Next time it will be easier.”
Hyde sobbed still curled.
“I love you, Haido. I want you to be only mine.” Sakura confessed, his heart full of love for the delicate creature under his gentle caress. He expected Hyde to return his confession.
“Good. I like that.” Was Hyde’s answer.
Sakura’s phone rang, and he answered reluctantly.
“Moshi moshi...”
“Sa... Sakura-kun?”
“Yeah. Who is it?”
“Tetsu da.”
“Tetsu?”
“L’Arc en ciel...”
“Ahhh... Tetsu-kun!! Hi!! How are you?” Sakura answered smiling.
Hyde suddenly heard and propped himself up.
“Tet-chan? Is it Tet-chan?” He asked, and Sakura put a finger to Hyde’s lips smiling at him and nodded.
“Fine. A little worried to be honest...” Tetsu answered on the phone.
“Oh? What happened?”
“Well, we came back to the studio and you weren’t there. We thought you had gone for food, and we waited... but neither of you came back... We just arrived home and Haido is not here... You left with him?”
“Oh, yeah. He’s here with me.”
“Ah... he’s with you... good.” Tetsu sighed relieved.
“Let me talk to Tet-chan, please!” Hyde asked tugging from Sakura’s arm.
“He wants to talk to you, Tetsu-kun.”
“Oh, OK. Thank you.”
Hyde grabbed the phone. “Tet-chan?”
“Haido. Where have you been?”
“With Sakura.”
“I see...” Tetsu had a bad feeling about this. “Where did you go? What happened?”
“I’m having fun with Sakura. He’s the ultimate cool guy!”
Sakura smiled pleased at the compliment and leaned back on his bed watching the small, naked man kneeling on the covers and talking on the phone. He couldn’t set his eyes away from the frail body, and his shimmering pale skin.
“It’s late, Haido. Come home. We have to take care of Ken’s foot.”
“I’ll stay here until tomorrow, Tet-chan.”
“What?!”
“Uh... uh... yeah... cuz... we... we... we will be uh... discussing songs... We need to catch up... ya know... the album... uh... and I’ll eat here.”
Suddenly Hyde heard Ken’s voice on the phone. “Just what the hell are you doing, Haido?”
Hyde was startled. “Huh?”
“Come here, you hentai fag! Don’t hit on Sakura and make our only chance to record an album vanish!!” Ken yelled.
“I won’t do such a thing!” Hyde blushed. He had already done it. Both of them had.
“What are you two up to? Tetsu told me about yesterday...” Ken demanded to know, while Tetsu tried to reach the phone out of his hands.
“Nan demo nai!!!!” Hyde protested blushing. It was a good thing none of them could see him. Sakura realized what they were talking about and began to laugh.
“Hand me the phone, please...” Sakura asked Hyde and wrapped his left arm around his lover’s waist.
Hyde shrugged and handed him the phone. Sakura took it and pressed Hyde against his body.
“Tetsu-kun... don’t you think Haido is old enough to choose what he wants to do...?”
“I’m Ken.”
“OK, Ken-kun then.”
“Yeah, he’s old enough, stupid enough, and loves attention so much he will do anything to get it.”
“Well... then he just got it. And you got yourselves one damned good reason for me to stay in your band. Goodbye now.”
Sakura hanged up.
“Fuck!!” Ken yelled and hanged up the phone.
“What the hell happened?!” Tetsu asked visibly mad.
“I bet Sakura just fucked Haido. You lost him, you wimp.”
Tetsu was aghast. He dropped himself on the couch and stared blankly into the wall.
“Only good news is Sakura is not likely to give up on us now.” Ken snapped and walked towards the kitchen mumbling a bitter protest about being in danger and surrounded by gays.
