We rushed towards the roof and the boys nearly threw me inside the vehicle.

"Off to Japan!" a cheery pilot announced from the cockpit after I sat down. Wait. What. No. That's impossible. I stood up and walked through the hallway in the jet, towards the familiar voice which sang along an old song. Tears were running down my cheeks as I reached the front. "You weren't the only one with a super-duper power-serum" the purple haired boy said with a bright grin before I fell forwards into his arms. "Miss me so much?" he asked teasing me and rubbing my back. "Oh Shorter" I cried into his shoulders. "Couldn't you stop calling me Shorter? How about Longer? I mean, I nearly lived longer than you." He said playing the cool one, but also having heavy tears in his eyes. "How- H-How are you he-here?" I asked. "Mhh, Papa had to test the serum at someone, he just wanted to break you with the test he made you and Eiji-chan do. He knew if he killed me AND Eiji you would have driven crazy and he could never show you again to somebody. So, I chilled my life down there until some days ago the boys found me. Man, when they told me what happened...You bitch scared the shit out of me!" he complained and punched my shoulder. "But now sit your sexy ass down, we gotta get your man." Shorter announced and made me sit next to him. After some more crying and hugging we were finally able to leave and make our way towards Japan.

Eiji, I'm coming.

"Wait...Shorter when did you learn to guide that thing?" I worriedly asked with fear in my voice.

"Never, of course" the knucklehead chuckled and switched on several colourful buttons. "If we didn't die before, we won't now, stop looking so scared" the purple haired guy laughed and started the vehicle.

Oh Eiji, I guess this will take some time longer than expected I sighed.

After hours and hours of flying, we finally arrived at the country. We took a taxi and Shorter told me he already talked to Eiji's parents and his sister. Oh fuck, I would have totally forgot that. If it was up to me, I would have stormed inside the house without even knocking. "They said they aren't home so you and Eiji can talk alone" he said and moved his brows. "Shut up" I laughed and hit his arm a little harder than expected. I was nervous as hell. I was never nervous before, not even at the fight with Arthur. I was more scared than at the horrible flight to Japan, with the biggest idiot alive as the pilot. I was a trembling disaster. What should I tell him? What will he say? Does he even want to see me? I'm such a nervous mess. "Hey bro, calm down. This is Eiji." He reminded me and I relaxed a little, thinking of his soft warm smile. "We're here. The key is under the carpet. Good luck, man" Shorter said and padded my shoulder, kicking me out of the taxi with a 'sexy' wink as he pointed towards the door.

I went through the beautiful garden full of flowers, exactly how I imagined Eiji's home to be, and headed towards the door. I was so nervous I even failed several times to put in the key. I went inside and kicked off my red sneakers. Realizing this is not NY, I kneeled down and put them aside. And then, well then, I didn't know what to do. I couldn't shout through the whole house... what to do...what to do... suddenly I heard the water running. I went upstairs and noticed the steam coming out from a half-opened door. At first, I wasn't sure, but when I stepped closer, I heard a familiar voice humming to a Katy Perry song. I had to hold back a laughter and my whole body was filled with joy and excitement. I opened the door, but he didn't seem to notice me, even if I swear you could have heard my heart beating against my chest until the next village. I would scare the shit out of him if I stepped in like that, I mean he thought I was dead after all. But what else should I do? Write an emaiI? "Hey babe, I rose from the dead. And how are you?" Idiotic. I shrugged, took off my sweater and my jeans and dropped them to the floor as I stepped inside the shower. "Last Friday night, huh?" I said and leant against the wall, shaking my head to the beat in the background. At first, he flinched, but then his whole body went stiff and he slowly turned around. His face was pale like death himself and his eyes had dark marks and were bloodshot. "Am I dead?" he slowly asked. "None of us is" I chuckled. He slowly stepped closer, inspecting me like an alien. His hands were shaking when he touched my shoulders to check if I'm real. "I'm alive, Eiji." I said and his eyes widened. Tears were running down his face and suddenly he realized what was going on. His knees began to shake as he stumbled and fell down into my opened arms who were already waiting for him. We sat down on the floor and Eiji jumped and embraced my hips with his legs. He held me in a death grip, nearly choking me, but all I could do was close my eyes and enjoy the warmth of his body. I had him back, back in my arms. Also, my tears rushed down my cheeks uncontrollably and Eiji's whole body was shaking. I held the back of his legs tightly and moved him even closer as I heard his loud sobs, so all parts of our bodies touched. I drew small circles on his thighs to comfort him a little. But somehow, I felt the need of being more close to Eiji... and so I pulled him back a little and roughly smashed our wet lips together. At first, he was shocked, but then wrapped tiny his arms around my neck in an even heavier death grip and kissed me back. His soft warm lips sent shivers through my body and I couldn't get enough of them. "How" he breathed against my shaking lips. "He just stabbed my stomach" I answered in between a kiss and smiled against his swollen red lips. His body began to shake and shiver in my arms and his tears ran down even more violent. I hugged him tighter and kissed his jaw, nose and cheeks, wiping away the tears with my lips. "P-Promise to ne-never le-leave me ag-again" he stuttered as he buried his face in my chest. "Never" I breathed as my lips found his neck. Eiji's hands went up and down my arms and shoulders like he still wanted to check if I'm real. We sat there for over and hour under the hot water, just holding each other. But then he suddenly tightened the grip of his legs around my waist. "Eiji I... I got...sort of a problem" I shyly told him as he still sat in my lap. His head shot back immediately to face me. "What?? Can I help you? Are you hurt? Do you need a doctor?" he panicked and looked around to search for injuries. I took his face between my hands "Shhh Eiji calm down, everything is fine" I said and placed a small kiss on his lips which made him blush after he seemed to realize we really kissed. "I, uhm, you sit on the spot I was stabbed...and uh, you're naked and, uh, I'm not pretty sure how long I can control myself- "but I was interrupted as he jumped down and tried to hide behind the shower curtain, his face redder than the blood which was running down my upper body. I couldn't but burst into laughter. "Come on, I already saw you" I said and laughed even harder. His face nearly had the colour between red and purple, but I released him by throwing a towel in his direction. "T-turn around" he stuttered. "What if I fall and really die? – Oh, come on, this one was funny. No? Too early? Okay okay!" I said and raised my hands in defence, turning around.
