Kyo blinked in the evening light, yawning with bore. His part of recording had done today. He wandered around the studio and found Kaoru was talking something to the producer far away. Kyo waved delightfully to them but those two guys didn’t even notice. Kyo scratched his head annoyingly. He rushed to them but he found nobody at that place. It’s not that worst when he glimpsed as Kaoru just left the room. Kyo almost called out the guitarist’s name but he had a idea popped up immediately. He always wondered why Kaoru was disappear sometimes. Where had he been? "Ah~~ I will play as a detective today!" He grinned slyly, stepping after Kaoru carefully.

* *

Since Kaoru’d got on a taxi from the coffee shop, the other taxi which chased after Kaoru’s was just stopped then. The small guy peeked from the passenger seat carefully.

"What’s the next, sir?" The taxi driver looked at his customer curiously.

"Uh! O.K. O.K. Stop here!" Kyo saw his pink hair guitarist get off that taxi, walking along the green pathway that similar to his eyes. After Kyo got off his taxi, he quickly ducked in the bush along the pathway, hiding himself.

"ummm…..Sir, May I help you?" The taxi driver still looked at him curiously, offering his help.

"NO! NO! Go away ! hurry up!" Kyo answered, waving his hand chaotic.

"Do you need the cops?"

"I say NO! Go away!" He glowered and made a scary face that he always done in those PVs. ( ^ ^; / Basil ) So, The taxi driver felt frightened, leaving the odd small guy quickly.

Kyo giggled slyly, thanks God that he didn’t give up as waiting for Kaoru for an hour at the coffee shop.

"Kaoru-kun I had reminded you ‘don’t come here!’"

Kyo who was hanging himself on the tree next to that house, looking for a good point of view, strained his eyes trying to see inside. His heart flipped when he could remind that guy’s voice. How could he mistake that voice!!

"You missed our appointment and I’m so worried about you."

"There was a pressing business!"

"You should call me first."

The other guy stunted. "…..alright…. The next time I will call…"

"I knew I’m not that important to you." Kaoru sounded hurt.

"Don’t say that!"

There was no sound from the room after that. Kyo shifted himself to find another good place. He wanted to confirm who exactly that guy with Kaoru was, more clearer?! Even though it can’t be whoever else….. at this house. He prayed he was mistaken.

*crack* !!! the branch couldn’t resist that chubby small figure anymore. It broke!

"What sound is it?!" The other guy asked with alarm. Kaoru poke his head out the window.

"I can’t see. Nothing here Yoshiki!"

* *

"Kyo! What’s happened to you?" Shinya asked with aghast. Kyo was stained with dirty spot, some grasses and leaves, plus his dress was slightly rag, walking staggeringly.

"Nothing!" Kyo carelessly replied.

"How could you say ‘nothing’! Look!" Shinya grabbed his shoulder, examining worriedly. "Are you alright?"

Kyo blinked. He didn’t feel hurt or anything, asides shocked! "Huh?!… uh! No! nothing!"

Shinya carefully leaded him to the long chair of their hotel floor. "Are you sure? You should see a doctor."

"No! I’m alright." He sulked.

Shinya merely nodded even he disagreed. He intended that he would tell Kaoru or Inoue-san later.

"Where’s Die and Toshiya?"

Shinya shrug. "I don’t know."

"Shinya…." Kyo opened his mouth but then stopped immediately. Should he tell what he found out after his detective game ?! He never intended to find such kind of incident…..Kaoru and that guy…. Shinya really admired him, plus Kaoru was their dear leader. The two guys were their important person…..

"What? Kyo, Do you need to see a doctor now?"

"Uh!…No, I don’t. How do you think about Yoshiki?"

"Eeeeeh!?" Shinya widened his eyes.

"If….If….If you found out….he…he has some affair with a member in our group……."

Shinya blushed furiously. "I… I….I don’t know Kyo….." Does he mean about me?! Could he see my signs about Yoshiki-san?! Ah……. Shinya was thoughtful then blush ear to ear.

"Shinya are you O.K?" Kyo blinked as he saw that red. "Do you have a fever?"

"No…!" The younger guy shook his head shyly. "Kyo. What do you think about Yoshiki’s affair with that member?" He approached.

Kyo messaged his side of head with fatigue. "I don’t have any idea now even though it’s incredible."

"Ne~~Kyo Don’t take it seriously." Shinya pulled his friend’s sleeves with embarrass.

Kyo stared at Shinya’s action curiously. Was Shinya happy with that couple? But he was shocked…… He decided to keep it’s in secret for a while. Before he could clear out everything.

Finally, They got through their works in L.A. completely. A goodbye party was held at the night before they would be back to Japan. Everybody enjoyed themselves. Toshiya was dancing with Die who kept eyes on the drummer.

"What are you looking for Die-kun?" Toshiya grabbed his lover’s neck and spoke loudly to the guitarist’s ear. The music was too loud.

"He looks so strange." Die seemed murmured himself rather than spoke to Toshiya.

"Who is it?"

Die felt Toshiya’s warm breath tickling on his ear before the warm-moist tongue licked his earlobe. Die shrank. "Aeww…. That’s ticklish. Totchi!"

The bassist giggled. "I woke you up. Well….tell me, who?!" He looped his slender arms around Die’s neck, moving himself along the music.

"Shinya. He looks so strange these days."

"That boy always looks strange. I think he is more happier than usual. Don’t you think so?"

Die shook his head, widening his eyes then. "Look! He is taking another glass. He had more alcohol tonight." Shinya was dumping another glass in one shot. His face turned crimson that Die could see clearly from distant. "He should stop!" Die frowned, loosing the bassist’s arms.

"Die. He is not a baby. This is our last night in L.A. after working hard. Shinya might free himself!…. Hey!!! Die!" He couldn’t protest the guitarist who was walking toward the drummer. He just sighed. His eyes caught a scene of his leader and producer. They were chatting quietly at a dim corner. He looked around the hall and squinted his eyes with surprise. His small vocalist sitting not far from them, glaring at them hard. That’s weird.

* * *

Die grabbed the glass before it touched the drummer’s lips. "Stop! Shinya. You’re too drunk."

The drummer looked up with his glossy eyes, surprised. "….ah….Die….Give it back!" He tried to grab the glass back but Die resisted.

"That’s too much. You will feeling bad in the morning."

"Dash it all!….. I want it now!" Shinya pouted, like an offended child.

Die took a seat next to the younger guy, staring at him worriedly. "What’s wrong Shin-chan? You’ve never been like this before."

Shinya smirked. "…..I will have a big deal tonight." He lowered his voice as if somebody was ears-dropping on him.

"Huh?" Die raised his eye-brows.

"….. This is time to confess. I need more brave……"

"Confess what?"

"…..I must tell him I love him soooooo much….. before….. he’ll misunderstand me……" He smiled sweetly. If this was at usual time, Die would be melt. The drummer looked damn cute. But now he felt that his heart has stopped. He had realized what Shinya meant.

"You mean Yoshiki-san, don’t you? Are you crazy!?" Die gripped the thin shoulder and shook. Shinya slapped his hand away. He sulked.

"I’m not crazy! But you!…. You are so blind. You don’t know Yoshiki loves me as well!"

Die stunted, feeling his heart was ripped off. "How do you know?" He attempted to protest. There was something misunderstanding, certainly. Yoshiki just had a fatherly feeling for Shinya!

"Kyo-kun…. He told me…..Yoshiki-san has some affair with a member…….in our group." Shinya said dreamily, smiling painted on his lips. Die choked.

"He might liar or mistake. You knew you can’t trust Kyo with 100% what he said!"

Shinya gazed at the guitarist’s eyes viciously. "You are so rude! … You try to discourage me!… You always rub the wrong way…..You don’t want to see me happy! Go away from me! I hate you!!!!" Shinya screamed out. Die was shocked.

"Shinya… it’s not that you think! You’re misunderstanding …I…!!" He was interrupted before finished his sentence. Somebody tugged his arm.

"Die-kun! What are you doing? You are bullying Shin-chan again, aren’t you?" …..It’s Toshiya.

"No! I’m not. I just talked to him."

"Why did he scream?"

"He’s too drunk. Look!…..Ah!!??" Shinya was disappeared from his own seat. Die looked around and found he was going to exit the room. Die sighed. He just prayed for Shinya. Even if his heart ached ,but if Shinya would happy….. Nothing else mattered.

* * *

Shinya threw his head backward, feeling cool wind caressed his hot face and neck. He felt so hot and dizzy for many reasons though it’s winter in L.A. Looking around himself, here was Yoshiki’s garden. The producer house was so large. The pool was shinning from the purple light under the water. He was standing right across the room holding party. Another was dancing, eating and doing whatever enjoyed themselves. It’s almost late. He wondered where was the producer? He was so kind to let them held the party at his house. Suddenly from the corner of his eye, a similar figure moved. Shinya gazed in dim light. "Kyo?!… What is he doing here?" He’d seldom talked to Kyo since that day. The vocalist looked so thoughtful and always had eyes on the producer and pink hair guitarist.

"Kyo!" Shinya pat the vocalist’s shoulder, making him jumped. "What are you doing?"

"Eek! Shinya! You’re scared me off" Kyo ,who was ducking himself in a brush, put his hand on his chest.

"Well…what’s are you doing?" Shinya asked again.

"Shsssssss!!!!….be quiet!" Kyo tugged the lanky guy into the brush as him.

"Ouch! Kyo it’s hurt!" Shinya said with annoyance. "Well… Can you tell me….Oop!!??" Before finishing his words, Kyo’s hand covered his mouth.

"Shsss! Look over there." Kyo almost whispered. Another hand of Kyo faced Shinya to his aim. Something was moving in the darkness. Shinya squinted at a couple in dark side there. After his eyes used to that darkness he could see pink head clearly. It’s Kaoru?! He was making out with someone but who? He looked back to Kyo.

"Hey!!!… What’s the matter?… Kaoru and somebody….Why do you spy on Kaoru? Don’t you know it’s so rude?…Oop!" Kyo slapped the drummer’s head lightly.

"See who is with him before you’ll jump in me."

Shinya gazed hard. The outline was so similar. So….." ….Yoshiki-san…" Shinya gasped, feeling as if the ground under his feet falling down. He almost couldn’t balance himself. That’s incredible! Shinya’s mind was screamming…..
