Cheesy I know and a bit lame. But... Hereyougo.

*************************************

Giriko was coming home late every night, usually drunk, and Justin was just about fed up with him. It had been going in for two months now. He would come home from work and grade papers until he went to bed. Sometime around midnight or one Giriko would climb in bed beside him, smelling of alcohol, and fall asleep.

Justin called Lord Death in the early hours of the morning before his lover rose and told him he couldn't come in. He needed, as he put it, a "personal day". Lord Death just smiled and told him he should "take it easy" and "take some time to have fun". He thought Justin was going to be with Giriko all day. Justin rolled his eyes after the conversation and got dressed and left the apartment. But he climbed up to the roof and settled down. He would probably be waiting a while.

He was right. I took Giriko until almost lunch time to leave the house. Justin followed him via the rooftops until Giriko went into a bar. Justin sighed and ran back to their apartment. He already wanted to scream. This was ridiculous. He pulled off his robes and found one of Giriko's t-shirts and slipped it on. He still looked weird. He pulled his hat and, reluctantly, his necklace. He grabbed one of Giriko's jackets, hats, and a chain necklace. He grabbed a pair of sunglasses and went to the bar.

It smelled horrible. Alcohol was thick in the air mixed with sweat. Justin almost had to cover his nose. People turned to glance at him but mist ignored him. A very scantily dressed woman walked up to him and pressed herself against him.

"How about I serve you tonight?" She was drunk. Very drunk. "I don't charge much." Justin shoved her off of him.

"Excuse me but I came with someone." He said and hurried away. Where was that chainsaw...? And then his eyes found him, and he wished they hadn't. Someone walked in front of him and he ran around them, ripping off his glasses, making sure his eyes weren't lying. He wished they were but the contrary seemed to be true. He felt tears well up in his eyes as he watched his lover with a woman wrapped in his arms, Giriko's hands slipping down to her butt.

"Giriko..." Justin whined too soft for him to hear but Giriko's eyes wandered up until they met Justin's and widened. Justin ran. He could tell the chainsaw was coming after him, but Justin would easily be able to outrun him. And he did.

"Open up you fucking priest!" Giriko yelled as he banged on the door. He had a key but Justin had already dragged the chain lock across the door and was backing away from it. "Just let me explain!" Justin tried to wipe away the tears but they wouldn't stop racing down his face. He eventually have up wiping them away and let them fall. He heard the loud rev of Giriko's engine as he cut down the door and stormed in. Justin ran to the bedroom and then the bathroom, locking the door, but it was easily destroyed as well.

"Come here!" Giriko yelled at the priest, who was huddled up in a ball on the floor.

"Get away!" He screamed as Giriko grabbed him.

"Just listen to me!" Justin shook his head. "Justin I fucked up!"

"For two months?" Justin snapped, glaring daggers at the other man. Giriko fell silent and Justin could have sworn he saw tears welling un in the chainsaw's eyes.

"Justin I-"

"Shut up!" Justin screamed and planted hie feet on Giriko's chest, sending the man flying backwards. Giriko managed to stand but by then, Justin had jumped out of the window. Giriko looked out to see Justin mounting his bike and speeding off, tires squealing.

"What have I done...?" Giriko sank to the floor and for the first time in a very long time, allowed himself to cry.

Justin's vision was blurred with the tears streaming down his face and filling his eyes but he kept driving until he was well away from the city, only a speck in the distance. Justin stopped the bike and turned it off, the music causing an eerie silence all around him before he put his headphones in to drown out the distasteful silence and sunk to his knees, sobbing.

"I'm falling," he sang, his voice breaking. "Down into my shadow..." What was wrong with Giriko? Was he just using him?

"Grasping onto every breath as I await the deadly night."

He must have been. That cheating Baka! That liar!

"So scary, but you can't give into this fear if pumpkin carriages 'cuz all the witches see it in your eyes."

It should have been obvious all along! What a baka he was! Falling for Giriko's tricks!

"See you and your dreams yeah, baby your nightmares, too, that's were I'll find you."

And yet, his touch was always so tender... His eyes always so loving- no! He was just using him!

"Fairy Blue it is only for you that I would crush the stars, and put them on display, black paper moon..."

But what if he really did mess up? What if Giriko did feel bad... But for two months!

"If you really put your faith in me, when you're lost here I am, forever with your soul, waiting here above you patiently, just like the shining moon."

But his touch... Justin shivered and the tears began to reach their end. His touch was so warm... His body so accepting and his voice so loving, even if he was ridiculing him... And he took care of him so tenderly when he was upset or hurt... And his soft lips...

Justin stood, clenching his fists and mounted the bike. Was a second chance really such a sin? He started the engine and sped off. He cheated! His logic screamed, but his heart throbbed as he got closer to the city... What was wrong with him? Giriko had cheated on him! He shouldn't give that baka a second chance! But then again... He never should have given him a first chance...

He stopped outside of the apartment and held his breath, climbing the stairs and walking through the ruined door. Guriko was in the bathroom, thrown across the floor, his body wracked by sobs.

"Fairy Blue You are my everything, the reason that I live in sweet captivity so faithfully." Giriko's head shot up at the sweet voice of his priest.

"And I swear you'll never be alone when you're lost here I am, forever with your soul." Justin knelt beside the chainsaw and embraced him.

"We can make it through most anything, if you can just believe." Justin's voice broke on the last note as the tears choked him. Giriko held him close.

"Never again." Giriko whispered. "I swear to you." He clutched his priest close. He could never hurt him again, ever.
