"That's absolutely hilarious Kippei, I wish I could have seen your face!" an amused and light voice drifted into Fuji's ears as he grew closer and closer to the pair.

In the dim lighting, Fuji could see a small blush rising to his brother's boyfriend's face, the deep voice rumbling out, "Stop that, I already got enough laughter from Ann about it."

Fuji could now make out what the shorter man looked like.

The man was average height, probably the same height that Fuji had grown to be. He had a rather lithe and thin body but it seemed to have a certain sturdiness to it. The man was of distinct asian descent but did not have Japanese features and Fuji would bet that the man was Korean. His soft looking hair was haphazardly styled, or not styled at all, on his head. The lazy slightly wavy strands fit the man's laidback image with a soft face, slightly lidded dark eyes, and thin pale pink lips. From what Fuji could tell, he was paler than Tachibana and didn't look like he went out in the sun much. (In the back of his mind, Fuji thought it was a shame. He wanted to see the man's ash brown hair in the light of the dying sun). The man certainly knew how to dress, just based off his clothing style. He wore a plain white v-neck, a navy bomber jacket, and tight black skinny jeans that left little to the imagination.

As Fuji got closer he reminded himself not to look at the man's fine ass.

"-And get this, he completely disregards what I have to say and-" the man cut himself off as he saw Fuji approach, "Oh, do you need something?" the light and ear pleasing voice asked over the music.

Tachibana also turned and smiled, "Fuji-kun, Atobe-san really outdid himself this time."

Fuji's heart swelled with pride at the comment but he quickly pushed it down, "Tachibana-kun," he greeted cordially, "I'm glad the both of you are enjoying the party."

Fuji's tone had the desired and immediate effect of the two men stiffening up and looking tensely at the tensai. Tachibana opened his mouth, "Is there something that you needed, Fuji-kun?"

Fuji opened his blue eyes and stared deep into Tachibana's dark ones, not responding.

The korean man shifted, "I'm going to go find my friends, Kippei, I think you two need a moment," he tried to shuffle away with an expressionless face.

Fuji immediately snapped his gaze towards him, "Oh no, this won't take long at all. Please, stay."

The man stopped and looked into Fuji's blue eyes, his dark eyes moving back and forth, as if he was searching for something.

Momoshiro burst out of his seat with wide eyes, "Oh shit." he breathed out.

Oishi frowned, "Momo, watch the language-"

"Oh shit!" he hissed louder, ignoring the older man.

Kaidoh frowned, "What the hell is wrong with you Momoshiro?"

Inui pushed up his glasses, "I believe that Momo has remembered why that man seemed so familiar."

Momoshiro grabbed onto the sushi chef's wrist, "Senpai, you need to help me find Sakuno-chan and Ann!" he called out to Kawamura, pulling the taller man out of his seat.

Kawamura gaped, "Wait Momo, calm down-"

"Kawamura-senpai, please," Momoshiro begged, "If I don't find Ann now and confirm what I'm thinking then that situation over there is going to hell."

"Ne, Momo, how do you know that guy?" Eiji asked curiously as Momoshiro continued to panic and fruitlessly pull on the sushi chef.

"Fuji-kun?" Tachibana asked again.

Fuji focused on the blonde man, "Oh yes, I was just wondering where Yuuta was?"

Both men had stupefied expressions now, "Yuuta?" Tachibana repeated back, "He went to go speak with his former team-"

"Kippei, I wanted to-" three heads turned to the new approaching voice belonging to Fuji Yuuta who slowed his approach, "Aniki? What are you doing with Kippei? And who is this?" Yuuta questioned.

The korean man seemed to open his mouth to answer the last question but Fuji cut him off, "I just came over to ask Tachibana-kun why he was flirting with this man while you were out of sight," Fuji answered smoothly.

Yuuta gaped at his brother's response, "What? Are you serious?"

Tachibana immediately began to deny his accusation but the three men froze as the korean man burst into laughter.

I knew I shouldn't be laughing, but the whole situation was just hilarious. I grabbed Kippei as support as I caught my breath, "I'm so sorry," I mustered out, "I really don't mean to laugh but the whole idea is just hilarious." I looked up and saw that the two strangers in front of me were still frozen. I let go of Kippei and gave them a weak smile, "Can I just explain this before it gets out of hand?"

I got no response so I just continued, "Let me introduce myself, I'm Song Jinyoung, Kippei's and Ann's childhood friend from Korea," I said with a slight bow, "I promise you that I am in no way attracted to Kippei and that he's only a brother in my eyes."

It took both strangers a few seconds to process that information, a blush rising to the shorter man's face as the taller let out a flustered, "Wah- what?!"

I felt my mouth twitch, my lips trying to force me out of the uncomfortable smile, "When my mother was young she attended K University here and met Kippei's mom. Since then we've been best friends. Kippei and Ann came to Korea for a couple years as children and we became friends," I expanded for the shocked strangers, "There was an exchange program at my school in Korea so I came to Tokyo for a semester before going back and coming here for college. I've been here since and Aunt Mikoto treats me like a second son." I scratched the back of my head sheepishly, "Sorry about the misunderstanding-"

"Song-san! Fuji-senpai!"

I blinked as a tall figure appeared in front of me, blocking my view of the strangers. I raised an eyebrow, "Momoshiro? Is that you?"

The tall spiky haired man laughed nervously, "H-hey, Song-san, how have you been doing lately?" before I could even open my mouth he turned hastily and hissed, "This is the Tachibana's childhood fri-"

"You're a little too slow on the save, Momoshiro," Kippei snorted as he held out a hand to his boyfriend.

I watched for a second before smiling widely, "So you're the love of my brother's life!" I exclaimed as I cut the interaction off, holding onto the brown haired man's wrist, "You're all he ever talks to me about," I continued, ignoring the confused look on his face and Kippei trying to stop me.

I drew closer to him so he could hear my voice over the music, "Tell me if he ever treats you badly, my contact in his phone is under "annoying pest". If he does we're gonna make his life a living hell."

Kippei pried me off immediately, a blaring red blush on his face, "진녕 너!"

I snickered, purposefully acting like a brat. I grabbed Momoshiro and Yuuta-san's older by the arms and bolted through the crowd, "메롱~!" I sang loudly as I left, ignoring Kippei's enraged yell.

Eventually I stopped and turned around, noticing that I had somehow lost Momoshiro, but the brunet man was still staring blankly at me. I gave him a sheepish, "Sorry about that Fuji-san, I got a little bit ahead of myself."

Syuusuke gave the man claiming to be the Tachibana's childhood friend one last analyzing look. Despite his raher meek appearance, the man was snarky and mischievous. He would have never imagined the man to be so expressive.

"I wasn't aware I told you my name." Syuusuke said back with a small smile.

The man let out a small laugh, "Well when all your brother talks about is his awesome boyfriend then you learn the name."

Fuji couldn't help but chuckle at that, holding out his hand to formally introduce himself, "Fuji Syuusuke, I'm an alumni from Seigaku."

The man's surprisingly small hands reached out to him and shook his hand firmly, "I would say I'm an alumni from Hyotei, but I'm unfortunately not."

"Hyotei?" Fuji asked, surprised, "What do you mean?" Fuji knew, or at least recognized, the members from Hyotei's tennis club that Atobe kept close to him. But this man was completely new to him, in all senses.

As if on cue, a familiar voice called out to the both of them, "Jinyoung! And Fuji-san!"

Fuji turned and smiled at the approaching couple, "Choutarou-kun, Shishido-kun," he greeted amiably, "Enjoying the party?"

Shishido nodded gruffly, "Yeah. I see you've met Jinyoung."

Fuji gave the long haired man a smile, "I have, why?"

Choutarou smiled sheepishly, "We were just about to introduce Jinyoung to Atobe-san, would you like to join us?"

Instead of asking why Atobe and Jinyoung would need an introduction he agreed and walked through the crowds of people.

Korean Translations:
