*Warning Strong Content towards the end of Chapter*

"I… I'm Soooo... Sorry. I….. Can't seem to stop crying.Like… like once you start...you can't stop."

Akahiro looks at me. He takes a step closer to me. By instinct, I take a step back and bump into the wall behind me. Akahiro smiles.

"Why don't we test something out and see if you stop crying."

I look up at him and he takes another step towards me. He places one hand on my waist and the other on my chin.

"What are"

I was unable to finish the sentence because he pulled me in and sealed our lips. I tried to push him away but was unable to do so. He pushed deeper, I unintentionally separated my lips in an attempt to stop him but, he took that as an opportunity to place his tongue within my parted lips. At this point, I gave up trying to push him away. I let my hands fall to my sides. He pushes his body closer to mine, after a moment he steps back.

He lets out a chuckle.

"It worked, you've stopped crying."

Akahiro gives me a smile.

What the hell, did he really just kiss me. That shouldn't have happened. I- what about my brother, he - he loves my brother so why kiss me. He could have simply hugged me but he locked our lips. I don't mean anything to him, right?

"Let's head to the store to get some alcohol we can't return empty-handed."

Akahiro heads to the store that is a block away. After a moment I follow close behind.

~~~~~~~~

As we walk back it begins to rain, it's not a heavy rain so I don't think there is a need to run

"It's raining, should we run back to your house."

I make eye contact with him but that only lasts a moment, I look down because the events from earlier come to mind.

"I don't think that's necessary, it's not too bad."

Akahiro looks at me but I avoided his eyes.

"We'll still get wet."

"We can dry ourselves once we get back, you can borrow some of my brothers clothes. I know that you might not want to but we're already soaked enough that if we don't change we'll catch a cold."

I look at him from the corner of my eye, I see him smile. We reach my house and we enter. I grab the bag from Akahiro and walk into the living room. I walked to the table and place the bag on the table.

"We got wet on the way back, I'll give Akahiro some of your clothes to change into. We'll be back in a bit."

German looks at me with a confused expression but simply nods. I walk to Akahiro who is entering, I grab his hand and lead him to my bedroom. I close the door behind me, I walk to my closet and get 2 towels. I hand one to Akahiro, he takes it and begins to dry himself.

I don't know if I should have brought him to my room but I can't kick him out now.

"Wait here while I get some of my brother's clothes."

Akahiro looks at me and nods. I walk out of my room and into my brothers. I grab one of his oversized shirts and the largest pair of his pants. I walk back into my room and hand the clothes to Akahiro.

"They might be a bit tight but it should be tolerable."

Akahiro looks at the shirt and laughs.

"This looks a bit big to fit your brother."

I walk to my closet and take out some clothes for myself.

"He buys oversized clothes for his lazy days, I thought those would fit you a bit better than his normal day to day clothes."

Akahiro lets out a chuckle.

"I'll change in the restroom, you can change here."

Why didn't I send him to the restroom? What if he looks through my things, he wouldn't. Would he? What if he finds my diary? I better hurry back.

I walk out of the room and into the restroom. Once I've changed I make my way back to my room. I give a quick knock and slightly open the door.

"Are you done getting dressed?"

I don't hear a response so I enter. I don't see Akahiro in the room.

Maybe I took too long and he decided to head back down. I hope he didn't have a look around.

Just as I am about to turn to leave I hear the door close. I turn around and see Akahiro standing in front of the door. I look at him with a look of confusion. He locks the door and then smirks at me.

"Don't look at me like that. You sure are brave taking a man into your room."

I look at him wide-eyed. He reaches for the light switch and turns it off.

"What do you mean? I- you needed a place to change so I- I was"

Did I make a mistake, no he wouldn't, my brother is downstairs.

He takes a step towards me. I take a step back, he doesn't say anything but he continues to smirk at me. He takes a few steps towards me and stops in front of me. I froze, not knowing if I should step back or try to push him.

"You do remember what happened on the way to the store don't you?"

I'm not stupid of course I remember but wasn't that because I was crying?

"I know what happened, but that was because I was crying"

He places his hands on my waist and pulls me to him. He lifts my chin so that I am looking at him.

"Um, but what are you doing. Your love is downstairs, he can come up at any moment."

Akahiro smiles and he leans into my ear.

"That doesn't change the fact that you and I are alone in a bedroom, with the lights off and the door locked."

This sends shivers down my spine, I unintentionally gasp. I don't dare look at him.

"Yo- you wouldn't do anything, right?"

He can't, what have I gotten myself into this time.
