(( Hey Izzy I'm making a new Clan group.. Help me by joining please? ))

They're so brotherly it makes me feel happy. I wonder what having a brother would have been like.. Eci watched the two.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

((But of course!))

Mitsuru sighed as Hayato walked out, "Hayato doesn't know this, but he's not my real brother...he was adopted when I was 3, and he was 2. He didn't look like me or our parents. In fact, nobody in the history of my family was ever blonde. But he was. And then one night when I was 13, I heard my parents arguing about it, and my father was saying how he hadn't wanted to adopt Hayato because he wasn't ready for a second child at the time." Mitsuru had a sad look in his eyes, "But I'll always consider him my little brother..."

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

((Natsu-chan?))

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"You're saying.. You didn't know he was your brother until your parents were talking about it?" Eci said slowly.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru nodded, "More like yelling. Luckily Hayato had been to a friend's house. He didn't really have that many friends though."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"So.. He doesn't know?" Eci whispered, in case Hayato was outside.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"No, he doesn't." He frowned and leaned back against the wall. "I feel bad for not telling him after all these years, but I thought it'd be better if I didn't."

Hayato had been standing outside the door silently, and he quietly walked away as he felt his chest grow tight.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

He might have been quiet, but Eci had sharp hearing. He had heard footsteps. "I.. I think he heard it all."

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru's eyes widened, "Are...are you sure?" he asked nervousky, then quickly stood up and pulled Eci up with him, dragging him with Mitsu to Hayato's room. He knocked on the door, "Hayato?" he called.

Hayato opened the door and saw it was Mitsuru. He didn't say anything and began to close the door, but Mitsuru pushed it open forcefully. "Hayato. I know you heard Eci and I talking."

Hayato narrowed his eyes, "Why?" he grabbed Mitsuru by the shirt collar, "WHY DIDNT YOU FUCKING TELL ME?!"

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci watched nervously, wanting to do something but he decided to let the two talk it out.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru saw tears in Hayato's eyes and his own widened. "Hayato..." he frowned and hugged the younger male, feeling his shoulders shaking. "I just wanted what was best for you..."

"All these years I thought we were brothers, and we really weren't..." he gripped Mitsuru's shirt, only to feel his brother's arms tighten around him.

"You're still my brother, even if we aren't blood related...we're related by heart..." Mitsuru whispered.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci just continued to watch, backing away slowly so the brothers could have their time. It was so sweet..

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru let Hayato go when he pulled away. He then ruffled the taller boy's hair, smiling gently. He then looked back at Eci. He smiled and went over, leaning down and kissing his lips.

Hayato didn't seem bothered by his brother kissing Eci, his face emotionless.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci smiled softly, but didn't kiss back somehow. He just was confused..

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru pulled away after a moment and smiled, wrapping his arms around Eci and hugging him tightly. He buried his face in his hair and took in its scent. It smelled sweet.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci smiled, blushing. Then he slowly for the first time hugged Mitsuru back but very gently.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru stroked Eci's hair, then pulled away gently. "So how are you feeling?" he asked softly, looking down at the boy.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"Better than before.." Eci said, looking up at Mitsuru.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru nodded, "That's great," he smiled gentkt, stroking Eci's hair as he hugged him. "I'm glad...I was so worried about you..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"I think I can take care of myself now.. But its nice to have someone who worries about me instead of me being alone." Eci said.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru nodded and let go of Eci. He then looked at Hayato, " I'll be back later, okay? I'm going for a walk." He then yawned and walked out.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci leaned on the wall outside of Hayato's room and continued reading his book, not minding where exactly he was.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

((Sorry I was making ramen XD but the smell is nauseating since I've been puking all day XP good thing we had a snow day))

Mitsuru came back after a few hours, going straight to his room and laying down. He was still in pain from fighting off those men that attacked Eci.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

(( XD ))

Eci got up and went to his room, sitting on his bed. He felt weird, and the pain was already returning but he ignored it and instead formed ice sculptures, something he excelled at.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru slept silently for hours, the. when he woke up his body was sore. He groaned, sitting up and rubbing his scarred forehead.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci had laid down and went the sleep around the time when Mitsuru woke up. His dreams were peaceful..

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru walked out of his room and was about to pass Hayato when he suddenly grabbed Hayato's shirt and collapsed against him. He was breathing heavily and he felt hot yet cold at the same time. He could barely keep his eyes open as he was suddenly picked up. Hayato took Mitsuru into his room and laid him down.

Hayato then came into Eci's room and knocked on the door. "Eci-kun. Its Hayato." He said emotionlessly. "Mitsuru is sick."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci's eyes opened and he rubbed them tiredly. "I'll.. be right... there.." He said softly and got out of bed, walking towards Mitsuru's room.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Hayato was in Mitsuru's room dabbing at his sweaty forehead with a wet cloth.

Mitsuru's face was red and his eyes were shut tightly with pain. He began to cough and gasped for air, his body shaking. He breathed heavily as he slightly opened his eyes. "H-haya...to..." he looked over at his brother and then saw a blurry figure of Eci.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"Is it a fever..?" Eci asked softly, kneeling beside Mitsuru's bed.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Hayato nodded, and his eyes were filled with worry. "I don't know how he got it, considering he doesn't get sick that often."

Mitsuru sneezed and closed his eyes as he curled up on his side. He was so cold..."I-I need some water..." he murmured.

Hayato nodded and handed Mitsuru the glass he had gotten him earlier. "Here.$

Mitsuru managed to sit up and his shaky hands gripped the glass before he took large gulps of the water until it was gone.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru sighed and looked at the time on his watch. 8:30 pm... He groaned and walked towards the door, not bothering to tell anyone where he was going.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci was reading in the library but he didn't notice the departure of his King.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru, who had left, went to the bar and started to drink. It didn't take him long to get drunk, and he had found someone who was there for the same reason.

((Should the person be a girl or a guy?))

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

{{ guy. }}

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

((Okay))

--AT 3 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING--

Mitsuru had gotten home, and was stumbling. He chuckled as the guy he was with wrapped an arm around him to help him stand, and they both went to Mitsuru's room.


--AT 10 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING THAT SAME NIGHT--

Mitsuru was fast asleep, and the guy he had been sleeping with (let's say his name is Kei) had his arms wrapped around Mitsuru's shorter body.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci saw that Mitsuru's door was half opened and he knocked but when he saw what had happened, he paled and turned, trying not to cry anthem ran, not caring if Mitsuru saw him or not.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru opened his eyes and saw Eci, his eyes widening. He pulled away from Kei, and tried to go after Eci. Once he got out into the hall, his body felt heavy and he fell to his knees. "Eci!" he yelled after him, but his vision was blurry due to the major migraine he had.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci heard him but ignored him, running away till he was very far from the HQ.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru sighed and ended up following after Eci once he put on clothes, but didn't run. He looked all over town for him, but didn't know where he had gone.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci sat in a park, looking up at the sky. It was peaceful...

{{ maybe Kei also took a walk and saw Eci, and decided to give him this warning?}}

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

((Hmmm okay))

Kei had also gone for a walk after Mitsuru had kicked him out. He saw Eci and grinned, walking over and grabbing him by the back of his shirt. "Hey, kid." He said coldly. "I know you saw Mitsuru and I this morning. Stay away from him, got it? Or else there'll be trouble."

Mitsuru walked around still, "Eci! Eci!" he called, his eyes filled with worry.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci gritted his teeth and touched Kei's hand, making it freeze slightly. "Shut up! Leave me alone!" He turned and began to walk away, but bumped into Mitsuru.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru looked at Eci and his eyes widened. He grabbed his wrist and held it tightly so he couldn't get away, "Eci, please, let me explain what happened this morning! You've got it all wrong!"

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"You lied to me!" Eci pulled his hand away roughly and began walking away, biting back more curses.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Eci!" he ran over and grabbed his wrist again, "Please! Its not what you-" he was cut off when he felt his head throb, putting a hand to his face and clenching his teeth. "Eci...I...the only reason is did this was because I didn't think you loved me the same way I loved you...I figured doing this would help me move on, but now it just makes me worry more..." he then closed his eyes tightly and leaned against a building as he felt dizzy and sick, his eyes struggling to stay open.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"You could have asked how I felt before jumping to other conclusions..." Eci looked away, so he didn't have to look at Mitusuru.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"I'm such an idiot, I know..." he then fell to his knees as he began to cough, "Damn hangover..." he put a hand to his stomach as it began to flip, groaning softly

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci couldn't help it but he helped Mitsuru to a bench. "Just get some rest." He then walked away again.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Eci!" he called, frowning and forcing himself to his feet to follow after him, "D-dont go..." he grabbed his hand this time, squeezing it gently, "I love you..." he said quietly, hanging his head so Eci couldn't see the tears in his eyes.
