Riko smiled and grabbed his camera and flashed a picture after doing a peace sign. "You smiled funny..." He said feeling the warmth of his arm around him.

Chagera laguhed and shrugged, "What can I say...I guess I look better when I'm moving than in pictures" He said poking out his tongue a bit.

Riko chuckled and Snapped another kandid photo of his and showed it to him.
"I'd say that one was okay...." He said giggling a bit.

Chagera smiled and nodded a bit as he looked at the photo, "I think that one came out nice as well" He said happily.
He removed his arm slowly almost reluctantly.

Riko smiled and handed him the camera. "Yep... Want to take a few?" He asked blushing a little.

Riko smiled as he snapped the photo then blushed and turned to face him causing Chagera's lips to slid across his cheek and to his lips as he snapped the photo.
Riko thought to step back, but instead gripped onto his arm and pressed against his lips.

Riko's eyes fluttered shut as he wrapped his hand around Chegera's arm and opened his mouth a little as his tongue traced the outside of Chegera's lips. He let out a soft shuttery moan as the feel of Chegera's lips against his.

Chagera let out a small surprised moan, his own lips parting slightly as his tongue ran across Riko's. He shuddered a little and snapped another photo his arm wrapping around the boy's waist.
He pulled out of the kiss slowly and watched the kids features trying to figure out if he'd done a good thing or not.

Hiro kept his eyes shut as he felt Chagera pull away, but kept his hand on the boys sleeves and tried to catch his breath.
"I..I..I'm sorry..." He whispered taking half a step back.

Chagera reached up touching his cheek lightly, "I....I didn't mind..." He whispered softly. Almost shyly.
He took the camera and pressed it back into Riko's hands.

Riko blushed darker and took the camera in his hands and kept his gaze at his feet.
"I...I should head home..." He said looking back up.
"C..C..can I see you again?" He said shifting his gaze around.

Chagera smiled a little, "When and where?" He asked softly, "No...no wait...where do you go to school?" He asked.

"Oh Umm... I go to Saint Mary's For boys... It's a dorm school... but since I live so close.. I commute..." Riko said pulling school rosary out of his pocket and showing him it. "Each bead after the knot represents our school grade..." He said counting them proudly.

Chagera smiled and nodded, "Alright....I see you there tomorrow when it lets out.." He said softly. "It'll give you motivation to go to school" He teased figuring Riko was like every other kid his age and hated getting up for school.

Riko blushed again and placed his rosary back into his shirt and looked away. "O...oh.... okay... Tomorrow then..." He said toying with his collar.

"I..I... Sure.... Bye..." Riko said then turned and ran off.
He ran until he was about a block away and then stopped and leaned against a brick wall catching his breath. What had just happened? I...I... just kissed a boy... a man.... He said placing his fingers on his lips, still feeling Chagera's lips against his.

Chagera smiled a little as he turned and headed back the other way towards his little studio apartment. He smiled a little, feeling a little guilty for stealing a kiss from someone so young. But some how it didn't bother him as much as it probably should have.

Riko got home before his mother did and started making supper, but no matter how hard he tried he couldn't stop thinking about Chagera... he should have asked for his number.... So he could text him. Sighing he finished cooking and laid the food on the table as his mom walked in.

"You made a mess Riko... YOU MADE A MESS!!!" She yelled as she saw the food. Her eyes flashed and she picked up the bowl of rice and hurled it at him. He yelled out as the glass shattered against the table and broke into pieces, slicing his right cheek. She ran over to him and knocked him out of the chair, causing his arm to flail out and struck the table almost spraining it.

Finally after an hour, she turned and left locking herself in her room. Riko laid there, tonguing the cuts on his lip until he was sure she was asleep, then slowly cleaned up the mess so that she wouldn't remember what had happened in the morning, then limped to his room and locked the deadbolt and the handle lock and sat in his bathroom cleaning and covering his wounds.

Once he finished wrapping his wrist Riko stumbled to his bed and sat down staring numbly at the wall. He hated his life, everyday it was like this... when ever he tried to do something for his mom she attacked him... He sighed and gabbed his school bag and started on his homework. It was already 8.... he was a little tired.... but school was more important...

((I'm going to skip to after school the next day.))

Riko sighed and stared out the window of his one unpatched eye. He kept looking down at the gate to the school, wanting to see Chagera again... but afraid of how he would explain his bandaged face, patched eye, and wrapped wrist... He had already had a hard time in the office explaining how he had tripped running down the stairs last night... he knew they hadn't bought it... and Chagera wouldn't either...

He jumped up and ran out of the class as the bell rang and headed outside.
