Disclaimer: you are warned that this is a yaoi fic and it's all from the imagination of the author. Sue meeeeeeeee!

Let's say if you don't know everything… Would you say that you know? With eyes that gazed faraway, that lovely person sitting in the darkness seemed to remember everything from the past… .

And even if he remembered, would it help? He had blamed this person for the dream which almost shattered…. ..

But now, looking down at this dark beauty who slept so peacefully beside him, he couldn't help but remember. And remember, with a nostalgic feeling, that everything was gone… ..Even if he remembered. Whether he wanted to remember, or not… That was another matter.

And now… ..

"Nnn… .good morning…" Long dark eyelashes fluttered open, and up lifted a masculine face, nothing delicate, but beautiful in its own sense. Unspeaking, the raven-haired person moved closer, his breaths so gentle against the frail neck against which he rested.

".. ….Sakura…" He sighed, burying himself into the embrace of his lover. ".. ..Good morning…."

"You look troubled, Tetsu…" He murmured, pressing his pink lips gently against that neck, kissing it lovingly, repeatedly. He didn't want to leave the presence of this man… .. It seemed as if the feeling was overflowing, even on such a day.

A brand new day.. .

"I'm not troubled.. ..I'm just remembering…" He laughed slightly, allowing himself to steal a glance at that face once before returning to the warmth. ".. …Stuff."

"What stuff…? Hn… Maybe I don't want to know?" Sakura replied mischievously.

"…..Oh… Many things… .."

BRIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!

"Oh fuck, we have recording today," Sakura murmured against Tetsu's neck, reaching over Tetsu's shoulder and flinging the alarm clock against the wall. It hit the wall with a loud cracking sound, and the ringing stopped altogether.. "Maaaaaan… Isn't it your holiday? …I really don't want to go…."

"You're the band leader now, so get lost," Tetsu giggled at Sakura's indignant expression. So sweet… .. So sweet… …. It's as if the morning was tinted with a hue. "….I'll see you tonight too… I guess…..?"

"Nnnnnnn…" Sakura grunted, kissing Tetsu roughly on the lips.

"….See you…" Tetsu started to untangle himself from that embrace, but Sakura's weight pinned him down.

"…. …Wait…. Just a moment more…. .."

The laughter came out softly, against the engulfing lips. Almost selfishly, Sakura wished that he never had to leave…. And always, always…. … ..Hold that being close to him, that gentle warmth… ..

Still, time will always be like sand draining from the fingers which try to grasp it…. ..

***

The day passed by without much events; he worked his brain off and there was only one thing which he yearned for—the end of the day. It wasn't that he didn't enjoy making music… But, there was always one thing which made him felt as if he would die happy, and it was the warmth from which Tetsu radiated.

The warmth which he could always say he 'returned to'.

"… ..Sakura…." The voice greeted him from a corner of the house, sweetly. "Welcome back."

Without a word, he strode closer, wrapping his arms around Tetsu's slender shoulders, feeling this being quiver in his embrace…. .

So warm…. ..

"…I was just remembering," Tetsu finally whispered, pushing him away. "…I didn't go anywhere today…. I wanted to go shopping, but I was afraid that I would forget the time again. I don't want to lose the time that I have with you."

"….Me neither….. .." Only in those arms, would he ever feel complete, as he did then. "…Hey, I'm starving, Tetsu…"

"I know," Tetsu giggled lightly. "…..Curry rice?"

Sakura stiffened slightly, at the mention of curry rice… ..Since a long time ago, he'd been trying to forget… .

"I learnt it from Hyde," Tetsu said, still smiling, leading him by the hand to the kitchen. "Nnnn. You must tell me how was it… Because I tried my best in this."

"………" He didn't say anything; because no words could explain the bliss which he felt… .. As the warm curry was lifted to his lips, and entered his stomach, it felt as if every bit of it came from the love which Tetsu had for him… ..

And this was enough… .

"It's great, Tetsu…. ..Tastes almost as nice as you," He teased, enjoying the sight of the slight blush which colored Tetsu's cheeks.

"Iya!" He blushed further at Sakura's gaze.

"Haha…"

"Un… ..Tomorrow I have to go back to work…" Tetsu said, suddenly glum. "…It seems like we can't ever spend a whole day together."

…So sweet… .. And precious, this being… Those words… He only wanted to hold him and hold him forever. And he pulled Tetsu into his arms again, feeling slightly silly for doing so; yet it seemed only right that they should be together… That he should have Tetsu in his arms…. And both of them basking in the same feeling which bonded them together. "….Someday…I promise…"

"Un…." Tetsu closed his eyes, sighing.

***

If time didn't have to end, will it be called time? If there is no ending, will there be an eternity? Sometimes such things make people wonder, but only because it's questionable.

And then…

You realize the truth, which is that nothing else matters but the present, because.. .

That lovely person gazed fondly at the raven-haired who slept on so peacefully… Because he won't be having the chance to in such a long time… But it didn't matter, because he had him right then… .

Because he was at home right then… ..

It would give him bravery to face the world, the simple remembrance of it. It didn't matter if eternity didn't exist.
