CHAPTER 2: Lady of Dreams

\"So what was all that about in there anyway?\" Yue asked as they drove away. Touya glanced at him.

\"What was all of what about?\"

\"You know...\" Yue smirked. \"The whole stare at each other, the \'Tsukishiro-kunthe-the-\"

\"You heard me say that?!\" Touya asked, a slight blush crossing his features.

\"How could I not?\" Yue said, laughing softly.

\"Fuck you.\"

\"Pull over.\" Yue responded with a smirk.

\"Shut up.\" Touya said. \"I\'m not like that and you damn well know it. If I was, you would have been the one.\"

\"Maybe.\"

Touya chanced a sidelong glance once they were at a red light and growled. \"Honestly Yue, nothing. He sang and translated that song that was playiwe ewe exchanged names, and then he ran off. I think he was getting off of work or something.\"

Yue got a blank look and looked out the window. \'No he wasn\'t Touya... he was going to get ready to go on stage...\' he thought to himself. He knew about \'Yuki\'. In fact the one performing the very first time Yue ever went to the club was \'Yuki\'. He remembered how hard he himself had gotten just watching the boy tangle in mock sex with his partner on the dimly lit stage.

\"Maybe.\" No matter what though, he couldn\'t lie to his best friend either. So the only neutral ground was to say maybe.

Touya nodded and noticed the look on Yue\'s face. If Yue wasn\'t saying something, chances were that he had a good reason. Whatever it was, Yue would tell him in time what it was. It obviously was something that he needed to know, just not yet.

\"So, what do you want to do now?\" Touya asked as he pulled up in front of Yue\'s house. Yue started from his thoughts and blinked in recognition of his surroundings.

\"Wanna come in for a beer and cards?\" Yue offered with a smile.

Touya nodded in consent and smiled as he put the jeep in park and climbed out, following Yue into the small house. It was neat and clean as always. Yue was a neat freak. Touya accepted this. That didn\'t mean he didn\'t pick on it.

\"Clean as always Yue... are you turning into a girl now?\" he smirked as he joked.

Yue turned on him, narrowing his eyes angrily. \"No you pig.\" he said in mock anger.

\"Ok ma\'am.\" Touya said teasingly. Yue laughed in return.

After setting out two beers and a worn deck of cards, the two sat across from each other at the small dining table. They ended up playing a few rounds of poker, laughing and sipping their beers in contentment before the topic of Yukito came up again.

\"So you like this guy? You actually going to pull the stick out of your ass long enough to do him?\" Yue asked, only half joking.

Touya threw him a dirty look. \"Why are you obsessed about my \'feelings\' for that bartender? You like him or something? If you do I won\'t go near him dude.\" Touya said, also only half joking. \'But Yue doesn\'t need to know... not about my confusion... Not about what I was thinking of doing with him.\' he thought to himself.

Yue noted the quietness and the look on Touya\'s face. \'It\'s like that after all... Damn idiot. I guess... I\'ll have to show him that tape... God I hate it... but...\' \"Hey Touya... Did you ever see the tape from my 18th birthday?\"

\"No.... I was so damn sick for a week... But maybe after our game huh?\" he asked distractedly. Yue nodded.

\'I\'m so sorry Touya... But you should know...\'

They finished the game quickly, Touya winning. Yue smiled as he led Touya to the couch and then opened the cupboards of his entertainment center and pulled out a tape. He blew the dust off and popped it into the VCR. He then went and sat next to Touya on the couch and hit play on the remote.

Touya laughed as he watched Yue and a couple of their friends from home joke and act like idiots together, walking down a dark alley. They were obviously looking for something, but Touya didn\'t know what. As he watched the group began to circle a young man with short silvery hair. As the man began to turn around to face the camera the tape suddenly went fuzzy and the next thing he knew, Touya was looking at a recording of wrestling. Yue swore and hit the fast forward button, searching until the tape went fuzzy again.. Touya blinked as the tape returned to showing the group of young men, Yue looking triumphant and tossing some yen at the feet of the young man who was leaning against a dark alley wall looking tired, his pants lowered some to ride his hips. His face was to the wall away from the camera, so it was impossible to tell who he was. The tape then cut.

Touya blinked. \"You got a prostitute?\"

Yue sat, slack jawed and angry. \"I... yeah.\" he said, smiling to hide his anger. \"I thought you\'d like the guy... but obviously I accidentally taped over it.\"

\"You thought I\'d like a guy? ....Yue...\"

\"Hey I thought. At least ya didn\'t have to see huh?\"

\"Yeah yeah.\" Touya grumbled. He narrowed his eyes at his best friend. \"You know, that\'s kinda sick... you don\'t even know what guys like that have... I mean, he could have had an STD or something!\"

\"Yeah, I guess it was stupid... But he was a paid for deal. He wasn\'t dirty.\"

\"How do you know?\"

\"Kero\'s his pimp.\"

One of Touya\'s perfect eyebrows shot up immediately. \"You mean.... Kero as in Cerberus?\"

Kero was known for his strictness with his whores. He would always require a STD test that he would administer himself to the customers as well as of his whores.

Yue nodded. \"The same.\"

\"Fuck. Then sorry. If you\'d said it was a deal out with Kero then I wouldn\'t have gotten pissed off. I just know you\'ve done a lot of stupid shit before.\"

\"Yeah, I know. But... If you want, I can set you up with something out of Kero. I\'ll pay too.\" Yue offered. Touya rolled his eyes. \"I\'ve told you before, I\'m not like that.\"

\"Then why did your eyes watch Yuki\'s ass for so long?\" Yue asked, a bit of jealousy tinging his words.

Touya blinked and then growled. \"Damn Yue... you jealous or something?\" he asked quietly. Yue looked away. \"You ARE jealous...\" Touya said softly, realization hitting him.

\"So what if I am? I\'ve liked you longer than anyone else... I should have rights.\"

Touya shook his head and stood up. \"I think I should go home now.\"

\"Maybe you should.\"

Touya didn\'t even look back as he left his best friend\'s house, getting in his jeep and returning home. He slammed the door to his jeep closed before storming into his small studio, only to find his answering machine had a message. He hit the play button and waited.

“Hey Touya, it’s Yue. Look man, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to cause such a major fuss, I’m just... well, jealous. It was stupid of me to react like I did. I didn’t mean to be such an ass. You know I’ve liked you for a while. I can’t help getting jealous when I see you looking at a guy in a more than friends w. I’. I’m sorry, and I hope you listen to this message. Gimme a call ok?” the voice said before there was a beep, signaling the end of the message. Touya sighed and picked up the phone.

After 3 rings, Touya heard the familiar voice greet him. “Moshi moshi.”

“Yue.”

“Touya.”

“You’re forgiven you asshole.” he said, sighing in frustration.

“Thanks.” There was a small pause on the line. “You know... I’ll set you up with a real good person from Kero if you want...”

“Will it make you stop offering if I say yes?”

“Yeah.”

“Then fine. If you want to.”

“Ok. I’ll call Kero, then tell you the details.”

“Sounds good.” Touya hung up and sighed, running a hand through his hair, tugging gently on it in frustration. About 20 minutes later the phone rang and he picked it up.

\"Moshi moshi.\"

\"Hey it\'s Yue. You\'ve got a date for tomorrow night. He\'ll be expecting you to pick him up at \'The Lady Of Dreams\' statue in the park at 5.\"

\"Ok Yue.\" Touya said before hanging up. He sighed. \"I have to do this for him I guess. Besides... this is a chance to figure out if I really am gay or not....\"

He decided to pass time and check his memory of where the lady was to go to the park. He drove out to the park and smiled as he saw children running and laughing together in an obvious game of tag, the wind whipping the clothes on their bodies around them.

He got out of his jeep and walked into the park, following a narrow side trail towards a large grove of sakura trees. He walked through the grove, the pink and white petals dancing around him and making small flurries where ever he stepped. He took a deep breath and smiled softly, enjoying the warmth and fresh air that the park provided, and only too soon did he exit the grove. He looked around and smiled softly, seeing that he was now standing in an open grassy area and only about 20 meters from him was the large statue.

It was a statue of a woman holding out her hands to no one, and at her feet lay scrolls. On these scrolls were written the hopes and dreams of many people that had visited. There was an old legend that if you brought your dreams written down to this lady and left them for her to look after, they would come true. He walked over and looked at the statue, admiring her strong features. That\'s when he heard the voice behind, so, soft as silk.

\"She\'s beautiful, ne?\"

Touya turned around to find himself face to face with Yukito. \"Yukito....\" he said softly. The petals from the nearby grove were swirling in the light breeze around them, making it seem almost dream like.

\"Touya.\" he replied with a soft smile.

\"I didn\'t expect you to be here.\" Touya said softly, his voice catching slightly.

\"I hope not.\" Yukito said with a soft chuckle. \"I just wanted to come here and see the lady, but I saw you get out of your jeep and decided to follow you. Luck would have it that we ended up having the same place in mind.\"

\"Aa...\"

Yukito walked up to the lady and pulled out a small scroll, then laid it at her feet. \"I wanted to put my dream in her care... For luck, you know?\"

Touya nodded, watching every movement that Yukito made, blinking softly as he memorized everything. Yukito smiled at him as he stood and walked over to him.

\"Don\'t you have a dream?\"

Touya blinked before the question registered. \"Oh no... My friend set me up on a date for tomorrow at five here. I just wanted to make sure I remembered where the lady was because it\'s been a long time, you know.\"

Yukito seemed to pale some. \"You have a date, tomorrow?\"

\"Yeah, kinda stupid isn\'t it?\" Touya said, laughing. He scratched the back of his head, oblivious to the obvious distress of his companion.

\"Do you know their name?\" Yukito asked quietly.

\"Nope. Just that they are a guy and to meet here at 5.\"

Yukito swallowed hard.

\"But I don\'t think I\'ll come, honestly. I might come here five minutes early and leave an envelope with some yen in it for them and then leave. Honestly, I don\'t want to go on the date, but my friend is being an asshole about it, so I figure why not stop the bullshit while I can, right? Besides, I kind of have my eye on someone, ya know...?\" He said the last so softly Yukito almost didn\'t catch it. What Yukito did catch for certain though was the slight tinge on Touya\'s cheeks.

Yukito nodded and blushed softly. He was about to speak when Touya spoke up.

\"Well, I should go. It was nice seeing you again, Snow Bunny.\" Touya said as he walked away, a blush coloring his cheeks.

Yukito blushed hard, but smiled at the affectionate term. \"I hope to see you again, To-ya...\" he whispered into the breeze. He then looked back at the statue of the lady. \"Thank you for granting my dream, Lady.\"

As he walked away the breeze pressed open his scroll. On it in neat kanji was written \"I dream for a true love tomorrow.\"
