A little side story at the end of the last chapter. Its about the long night Suoh and Kirishima had as they waited for Asami to return from his nightly pleasures with Akihito and the chats they had.
10:00 PM
"How long?" Kazumi stood in the lobby with two drinks in his hand, waiting for Kei to finish texting.
Kei sent one last text to his informant with a detailed report of his bosses orders. "The kid fell asleep, this might be a long night." He took off his glasses to rub his eyes and grabbed the drink from his friend. "maybe two hours, kid won't stay asleep for long knowing Ryu."
"Hahaha, that's true."
Sitting opposite him in the hotel lobby, Kazumi sipped his drink slowly. "Kei, do you think he will find someone?"
Looking up from his papers, he looked to his friend, seeing the seriousness and worry in his eyes. "I don't know. But if he does, I hope that person will come to love the man we know and not the man who rules Japan.
12:00 AM
"Anything?"
"Nothing."
"It should be anytime now, the boy seemed weak."
"ya, it should, nothing happened right."
"Relax Kei, its Ryu were talking about."
"True... But really, playing around like this, its not good. One day, something will happen, and we won't be there to stop it."
"...maybe he would have been the one, that kid from the gallery, I've never seen Ryu so interested in someone before."
"...he was obsessed. Still is, his dreams haven't stopped since it started over a year ago. Its taking its toll."
Silence. Two tired men sat in an empty lobby waiting for his boss to come down. With no boss in sight and no messages from said man, the two had nothing to do.
1:00 AM
"Its been over three hours Kei."
"Let's make a bet, Suoh."
"A bet? Sounds good"
"So here it is, its been three hours, already an hour over his usual time. The bet will..."
"Hold on Kei, I got an idea, let's make it a four way bet."
"call" Kei and Kazumi both reach for the phones, calling someone and one another. Making a four-way phone call.
Yoh: "Hello"
Kuroda Shinji: "Talk."
Kei: "Now that everyone's connected, listen up. Ryu is with a young man in a hotel room, last we heard was three hours ago when the boy fell asleep. They've been in the room since 9 pm but the boy was out for the first 40 min or so."
Kazumi: "Kei, stop giving a detailed report, were not at work. Basically, we were bored so decided to bet on it. Hence, place your bets men"
Shinji: "You woke me up for this!?"
Yoh: "3 hours is already long, but since the kid got some rest, I'll say 4 hours."
Shinji: "6 hours, he's probably waiting for the kid to wake up again."
Yoh: "I thought you weren't playing? Go back to get your beauty sleep."
Shinji: "I never said that, I'll play since I'm up, isn't it your bed time Yoh? Your princess must be waiting for you."
Yoh: " Why don't you come by so our princess can rip you to shreds, stop hiding behind your law book."
Kei: "Enough you too! Stop bickering like tired children. Concentrate."
Yoh: "..."
Shinji: "..."
Kazumi: "first of all, why did he even wait for the boy to wake up? He would normally either leave or wake them up. So it should have been done after one hour."
Kei: "He also ordered a check on his relations, he seems extra interested in this kid."
Shinji: "That would be great, rather than chasing someone we can't find."
Yoh: "Maybe he wanted info on something, torturing takes much longer than releasing his sexual frustration."
Shinji: "I would agree if he didn't book a suite room in one of the finest hotels. Kei, why don't you try calling him?"
Kei: " Don't blame me if he gets angry for the interference. No one talk."
Ryu: Ring...Ring...Ring...Ring...
Kei: "That's rare. He would usually pick up even if he was in the middle of the act. Which by the way is not the most comfortable way to have a conversation."
Shinji: "Maybe his phone is on silent or he forgot his phone?"
Kazumi:"He has it and its on high volume. He makes sure it is. It's also fully charged."
Kei: "He must be taking a shower, I bet 3.5 hours, he will be on his way out soon."
Kazumi: "I'll go for 5 hours, he will want another round after the shower."
3:00 AM
Yoh: "There is no way the kid has this much energy."
Kazumi: "Agreed, its sex with the great Asami Ryuuichi after all , some even called him a sex demon. Imagine That."
Kei: "Five hours is not little. He keeps creating new records."
Yoh: "Does Ryu even know we make bets about his nightly activities?"
Shinji: "Nope, otherwise he would skin us alive. Or join us. Either one."
Yoh: "By the way, you do know my call is international right, so add my call cost to the table."
Shinji:"Fine by me, my bet's still valid."
Kazumi:"I hope he doesn't come down for another hour, then we can make new bets."
5:00 AM
Kei: "Should I send someone up? Maybe he got tied up and the kid ran away?"
Kazumi: "I would be worried if that was a remote possibility."
Yoh: "Maybe he just fell asleep."
Shinji: "Do you really think he would sleep next to a stranger? Let his guard down? No way, not Ryu."
Yoh: "What else would they be doing for seven hours?"
Shinji: "We should make a new bet, about what happened in that room tonight."
Kazumi: "Call, then I'll bet they fell asleep, maybe he didn't feel danger next to a passed out boy."
Yoh: "My bet's also on sleeping, but he probably has his gun right where he needs it, still on guard."
Kei: "My bets on work, he could be working while the kid's passed out."
Shinji: "You guys play a hard bet. My bet's on smoking and drinking his night away."
Yoh: "Let's add time to our bets, otherwise he has time to do everything in theory. What time does he have work tomorrow?'
Kei: "We have a meeting at 9 am. So he needs to be out by 8 latest. So lets make 7 am the last bet and anything past that as a loss."
Shinji: "Call, I'll add till 6:45 am."
Kei: "5:50 am"
Kazumi: "6:30 am"
Yoh: "6 am"
7:45 AM
Shinji: "Really?"
Yoh: "Does he even sleep this much?"
Kazumi: "I'm going in at 8."
Kei: "Agreed."
Shinji: "So I stayed up all night and no one won the bet?"
Kazumi: "The game will continue another time, the pot just got larger."
Yoh: "Today's going to be an exhausting day."
Kei: "Could this kid be different? Staying this long with someone, its like he finally got a love life rather than just satisfying his sexual drive."
Kazumi: "If he is, that would be great."
Yoh: "It is about time. Oh. and make sure you guys find out what happened, I'm dying to know, of course with as little graphic details as possible. Please."
Shinji: "It would be great, but if the kid is after his wealth, power or even becomes a hindrance, I won't hesitate to remove him."
7:55 AM
Kazumi and Kei got up from their seats, calling the guards waiting outside in case they have a situation. They got the hotel manager to come with them as they headed to the elevator that would lead them to the suite room.
Before entering the elevator, Kei receives a text. He checks the name and stops everyone in their tracks.
Asami: Will be down in 5.
Kirishima: Understood.
Kirishima relaxed. Maybe this is something new, did he finally get a love life? He looked to Suoh who also relaxed. They split up, leaving Suoh in charge of bringing Asami to Sion while he left to prepare things for the meeting and the day's work.
Kei: "He's out, he doesn't sound tired. Looks like he did sleep."
Kazumi: "We will get it out of him, one way or another."
Shinji: "Don't tease him too much."
Yoh: "Will look forward to it. It's been fun, let's catch up over drinks next time I'm in town."
Kei: "Sounds good."
Kazumi: "Good Day Everyone."
Kazumi stands in the lobby, waiting for his boss. As Asami comes into view, he knew something was different.
He looks majestic, glowing with power. Refreshed in so many ways. Exactly what happened last night Ryu? Well, whatever happened, I hope it happens more often.
For your sake.
