Hehe chapter 8 is here~ yay I don't own Junjou Romantica at all~ hehe let's see the truth in this chapter as it starts!!

Takahiro POV

Manami and Mahiro had gone out shopping for new clothes for Mahiro. I would have went along too but I had just gotten home for work so I was told to go rest.

I went to go get changed but the phone rang, I sighed and answered it hoping that I wasn't going to be asked to called back into work.

Me : hello Takahiro Takahashi speaking

? : ah by your name I can assume that you're Misaki Takahashi's brother?

I was confused as to why this total stranger had gotten my number and had phoned me about Misaki.

Me : yes I am.. But who are you?

? : ah I'm sorry I had forgotten to introduce myself. My name is Nowaki Kusama, the doctor who is currently undertaking your brothers health.

I froze, I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Me : wait... Misaki is in the hospital?...why?!? Is he okay?!

Kusama : calm down Takahiro, your brother is fine now, he was brought to the hospital with Usami Akihiko, they had been caught up in an terrorist attack in the supermarket, neither of their lives are in danger.

I sighed with relief, I didn't think I'd be able to handle it if either of them died and left me.

Me : thank you Kusama, I'll be heading over to the hospital right now which room is he in?

I took the phone with me as I put my shoes and jacket back on.

Kusama : they are in room 137

Me : me thank you, I'm hanging up and heading over right now.

I hung up the phone and hopped into my car, I stopped over at the local flower shop to buy Misaki some flowers. I knew that I didn't have to rush or worry.

When I arrived I went straight to Misaki's room, I couldn't wait to see him, however when I opened the door of room 137 I had a huge shock. I had walked into my brother and my best friend kissing, I dropped the flowered out of shock.

Wait what..... Why are they? Misaki's just a kid... Is this some game of theirs?.. If so.. I can't allow it to continue..

I had hung my head so that they couldn't see my expression that was on my face.

"Misaki....what are your two doing?..."

He looked at Usagi desperately, I was told that he had lost his voice and it appeared to be true, I then saw Misaki move a little away from Usagi.

Usagi.. Please answer my question for Misaki..please don't me silent.

"Me and Misaki are... Have been, lovers for years.."

I couldn't believe my years, they had been together for years and hadn't even told me, I understood a little why though.

Actions speak louder than words however.. I'm going to do something now that might harm them both.. I hope they'll forgive me one day..

I need to see how much you both care for each other before I can accept your relationship. Usagi can be forceful at times and this would be Misaki's first lover...

I saw Misaki nod slowly as he began to clung to Usagi's arm tightly,the fear in his eyes was hard to deal with but I managed to not show it.

I'm going to play the bad guy.. I'm going to regret this but I just have to see for myself, I've never really liked relationships like that.

But if it's Misaki and Usagi...

I forced my hands into fists until my knuckles began to turn white, I also made myself to appear as if I was trembling with rage.

I saw Misaki clung tighter to Usagi, it was a good sign in my books, it showed that he trusted Usagi enough for safety, fear evident in his emerald eyes.

But friends also protect each other..now to be forceful..

"Usagi... No Usami... How dare you lay your hands on my baby brother! Misaki, we are leaving right now"

I'm so sorry!...

Misaki gave me a look of pure horror as he shook his head and hid behind Usagi, gripping his shoulders tightly. It took all of my energy to not break down my front. It hurt seeing my baby brother like that.

Misaki's clearly attached to him.. However I can be dense.. I've learned this from not realizing Misaki's and Usagi's relationship for so long.

"Takahiro! I will not hand Misaki over to you, I love him and he loves me back!"

I was a little surprised by the force that was in Usagi's voice, I could clearly tell that he was attached to Misaki also. I then noticed Misaki had begun to cry, I never thought the day when I caused my baby brother to shed tears would come.

I'm so sorry....

"Misaki!"

It was hard to make my voice stern instead of tremble, Misaki looked away he seemed unable to make eye contact with me I quickly got up and went to drag him away with me but I messed up and he ended up falling onto the hard hospital's floor. Usagi suddenly jumped up and pushed me away from Misaki and knelt down and stroked Misaki's cheek soothingly as if he was ever so precious to him

"Misaki, you okay? Does it hurt?"

Usagi's voice was filled with such love, I knew right then that they truly loved each other more than anything in the world.

I'm glad..they had a healthy relationship... However now... I'm hated.. Well it's worth it.. I know that my brother is safe within Usagi's arms.

Usagi gave me an glare that was filled with fury, I couldn't believe that my best friend, probably now former best friend gave me such a look. I was in complete shock at how his lavender eyes burned so fiercely into me.

"Takahiro..... How dare you hurt MY Misaki"

I flinched at Usagi's tone, it sent chills up my spine. For a second I had this feeling that he would have murdered me if he could. I backed away and ran out the door.

*end of flashback*

I was now sitting in an empty hospital room mourning, I was mourning for the ever so precious bonds of mine that I have always held so dearly to me. I had broken them because of how dear they were, I had wanted to make sure that they truly without a blunt cared for each other.

"Misaki... Please forgive your stupid brother.. I went too far...."

My sobs were making it hard for me to speak, I didn't mean to speak aloud but for some reason I did.

I was starting to find it hard to breathe from all of my sobbing so I took a few seconds to steady my breathing and to wipe away the hot tears the were streaming down my face.

"Heh I seem to be pretty pathetic right now .... Forcing myself to act meanly to test them, then running away and crying about it later..."

I sighed, thankful that the hospital room I had found was vacant. I didn't think I would have been able to hold in my tears even if it wasn't. It would have aroused a bit of trouble then Misaki and Usagi would have found out my plan.

"I want Misaki and Usagi to forgive me on their own time... Though I won't hold it against them if they decide that they...will never forgive me.."

I never thought I would have regretted my actions so much as so make myself cry, unable to stop the flow of my tears.

"I guess I shouldn't have done that if I was going to regret it.. I just couldn't help it.. I was worried about him....I wonder if I just might be the worlds worst older brother.. And the worst best friend..."

The image of Usagi's hatred was one I couldn't shake out of my mind it felt like I had been stabbed multiple times over inside. I had never thought Usagi, who was always so kind could make that expression, especially towards me.

"Usagi... Has the right to hate me now... I hurt the one he loved, Misaki. If anyone harmed Manami... I'd probably would have made that same face... I'm so sorry Usagi."

I had to once again wipe my face of all the tears I was shedding, it was surprising that I hadn't run out yet after all of my pitiful crying. I also remembered the fear that was present in Misaki's emerald eyes as he stared at me in horror. I new set of sobbing overtook me at the memory.

"Misaki... I can't believe I was so horrible to you that I made you fear me..I'm your big brother.. I..I shouldn't have caused you so much fear.. It my fault... I should have been protecting you not hurting... I thought it would help....I was so wrong..."

I continued to cry softly to myself, I wasn't able to stop no matter how hard I tried. I tensed when I felt slender and warm arms wrap around me from behind.

I looked up and was surprised to see Misaki, his emerald eyes were filled with tears and he was smiling at me. I couldn't believe it, his smile was filled with such kindness and compassion even after everything I did.

"Mi-Misaki?.."

I choked on his name, he just nodded slowly and hugged me tighter, I knew he was unable to talk but I could tell what he wanted me to know.

"You... You heard all of that?.."

He nodded in response then wiped my tears out of my face, I felt so silly for having my little brother comfort me.

"I'm sorry Misaki... I just..."

Misaki smiled and covered my mouth as if he didn't need me to say how truly sorry I felt. I just began crying again and Misaki saw with me and patten my back I felt so thankful that my little brother had finally grown up and stayed so kind.

"I guess I'm the one who still needs to grow up.."

Misaki POV

I was shocked to see the person who was crying in the room was Nii-chan, I didn't expect him to be crying, I had expected him to be a little upset but not so upset so as to start shedding tears.

Nii-chan?

I went to go in and comfort him but I stopped when Nii-chan began to speak to himself.

"Misaki... Please forgive your stupid brother.. I went too far...."

Nii-chan? What do you mean?

I stood in the doorway quietly, I wanted to know the reasons for Nii-chan's actions. I was greatly relieved when that I was right in him not totally hating us.

Nii-chan was crying so much that it seemed like it was slightly hard for him to speak.

"Heh I seem to be pretty pathetic right now .... Forcing myself to act meanly to test them, then running away and crying about it later..."

You're not pathetic Nii-chan... You probably had your reasons...

I heard Nii-chan sigh, it hurt seeing my Nii-chan in so much pain, however I needed to find out the truth from him.

"I want Misaki and Usagi to forgive me on their own time... Though I won't hold it against them if they decide that they...will never forgive me.."

No Nii-chan.. I don't hate you.. You're sorry and you care deeply for us...you're my Nii-chan.

"I guess I shouldn't have done that if I was going to regret it.. I just couldn't help it.. I was worried about him....I wonder if I just might be the worlds worst older brother.. And the worst best friend..."

No you're not.. The fact that you're crying for us is proof enough Nii-chan...

I could feel myself beginning to cry, I wanted nothing more than to run in there and help Nii-chan, however I knew that would solve nothing. I needed to hear more of Nii-chan's story.

"Usagi... Has the right to hate me now... I hurt the one he loved, Misaki. If anyone harmed Manami... I'd probably would have made that same face... I'm so sorry Usagi."

Oh Nii-chan.. Usagi doesn't hate you truly... You're his dear friend... He used to care about you so much... However now you're just one of his few irreplaceable friends..

I watched as Nii-chan tried to wipe away his tears, it was useless however because shortly after a new fit of crying overtook him.

"Misaki... I can't believe I was so horrible to you that I made you fear me..I'm your big brother.. I..I shouldn't have caused you so much fear.. It my fault... I should have been protecting you not hurting... I thought it would help....I was so wrong..."

I couldn't stand watching my dear Nii-chan like that, I didn't hate him one bit, I still loved him dearly. I couldn't stop myself from slipping away from my spot in the doorway to Nii-chan's side. I wrapped my arms around my dear Nii-chan knowing that I couldn't soothe him with words.

Nii-chan I love you so much... You're the best brother ever..

He looked up at me with surprise, I smiled at him with all my heart as I allowed my tears to roll down my face. I wanted Nii-chan to know that I still love him dearly regardless to his mistakes.

"Mi-Misaki?.."

Nii-chan choked on my name, I nodded slowly and hugged my Nii-chan tighter, knowing that my actions should be able to communicate how much I love him.

Nii-chan... You have no more reasons to cry now.. All is forgiven.

"You... You heard all of that?.."

I nodded as I wiped the tears out of Nii-chan's face, I was glad that I had caught Nii-chan like this. If I hadn't I might not have been able to smooth things out as easily.

"I'm sorry Misaki... I just..."

I smiled and covered his mouth, I had already heard how sorry he was, and how much he actually cared for me and Usagi. I felt like I was the older brother as I calmed down my silly and childish Nii-chan.

"I guess I'm the one who still needs to grow up.."

Nii-chan you were just worried its natural.
