Summary: When Tetsu approaches Hyde to join his band, the vocalist turns out to be everything he's been made out to be and more. But is that more than the new band leader can handle?
Prologue
Chapter 1
At a certain point of a band's existence, the members realize that as cute and harmless as their fans look, and as much as they appreciate them, it's crucial to keep some distance from them. It's half survival instinct, half an unavoidable PR move and, for a person who needs to get in contact with them for whatever reason that is not worshiping the ground they walk on, it's one hundred percent a pain in the ass.
Fortunately, Tetsu never had a problem with going through some of his connections to get into whatever place he wanted to get in. He was ready to pull on every string he had to in order to get a chance to speak with Hyde after he bid goodnight to his friend that evening. But, even more fortunately, he did not need to. It seemed that as much fame as they'd already acquired, Jerusalem's Rod was still perfectly alright with remaining in everyone's view after the show, opting for socializing with everyone interested instead of disappearing as most of the more 'mature' bands did.
It worked out perfectly for Tetsu, who used the opportunity to follow them to a nearby club. After a few minutes of thinking over the information he had and strategizing, he finally saw that Hyde was left alone (and approachable) for a moment. Taking the beer that he'd been sipping those last few minutes with him, he went to talk with the man that caught his attention so entirely that evening.
Hyde noticed his approach very quickly and was already smiling at him indulgently when Tetsu finally came to a stop near him, but the bassist clearly noticed the judging look he was given at the same time, even if the singer tried to hide it. And when Tetsu was about to speak, he had not even opened his mouth yet when Hyde beat him to it.
"Does it really take that much courage to approach me?" The vocalist asked gently if a little bit to amused while nodding towards the bottle in Tetsu's hand. "I don't bite, I swear," he added and, with a mental chuckle, Tetsu crossed the vampire rumor off his list.
It might seem like a fairly narcissistic thing for Hyde to say, but Tetsu saw some of the fans approach the beauty that was now before him and he knew the man was just being realistic by assuming that Tetsu needed to get some alcohol in his system in order to come talk with him. Not that this necessarily meant that the man wasn't a narcissist, Tetsu added in his mind. Just that he had valid reasons to be one. Making some final additions to his plan, Tetsu did his best to look as sincerely embarrassed as he could without being able to blush at will.
"I, uh..." he said, creating himself a perfectly fanboy-ish image in Hyde's mind, he was sure. "My name is Tetsu," he introduced himself in the end. Hyde nodded.
"Most call me Hyde," he said in return and the smile did not waver.
"I'm trying to create a band," Tetsu said, letting some of his actual confidence leak into his voice so that the singer wouldn't outright laugh him off as a teen with delusions of grandeur. "I already have a guitarist and I, myself, am a bassist and I just saw you guys on stage tonight..." he trailed off, letting Hyde finish the sentence himself. The singer's smile gentled even more and Tetsu knew that had a girl been standing in his place, she'd have been melted into a squealing puddle by it. Tetsu did his best to imitate one.
"Do you want to speak with our drummer, then? I'm quite sure I don't want him to be stolen from us, however," the joking voice of the singer was perfectly polite and with a healthy dose of humbleness added. It honestly seemed as if the idea that someone would be trying to recruit him was alien to Hyde. In fact, the singer seemed very friendly and completely harmless. But even without his friend's warning, Tetsu could see that the innocent facade hid very sharp fangs behind it, even if only proverbial.
"Oh, getting to speak with him would be great," Tetsu did not fake the excitement - the drummer of Jerusalem's Rod did not seem like he would be a bad addition to his work-in-progress band either, "but I was more interested in talking with you," he finished pointedly. The smile that statement was met with had a tinge of sadness to it.
"As flattering as I find the sentiment, I'm sure you could find someone better than me to join you," the long-haired man said, turning to sip his own drink for a moment before turning back, his face adorned by a full smile again. "Though it's a pity to turn down someone like you, I must confess."
There it was. This was what Tetsu had been expecting from Hyde after the conversation he had with his "local rumor expert" friend. In what seemed like a completely effortless change, Hyde suddenly looked to be outright oozing with seemingly unintended attractiveness. The guard-less and innocent demeanor, the seductive feminine charm and hypnotically ethereal beauty were all leaving no chance for a helpless fan or really, any helpless human, to resist it. From that moment on, it was obvious that the singer's attention was caught and he had started spinning his web. Fortunately, Tetsu was not helpless and he noticed what was happening immediately. He did not, however, ever intend to resist it.
"I really doubt that," he answered, almost succeeding in blushing. The singer blushed for real. He was really good at this acting thing.
"Thank you, but I know there are people that are much better than me in this. I'm sure soon this strange fascination that my band leader has with my voice will be gone and I'll be back to where I've started. I've learned not to rely on it."
'...since I've never sold my soul to the Devil for it,' Tetsu finished in his head for his own, private amusement. In reality he was all too aware that no matter how much of what Hyde said was the truth, the only reason the singer was revealing it in the first place was carefully calculated and was probably to garner pity, get the attention. To seem even more harmless. The bassist was starting to really marvel at the skill the singer wielded. If Hyde really viewed this as a challenge, he was doing a damn good job at conquering it.
"Are you sure there's nothing I can do to convince you?" Tetsu persisted, pretending to try to not show that he was getting interested in other things than just Hyde's voice.
"Are you sure you want to convince me?" The singer asked almost playfully and Tetsu's face morphed into expression that made it look like he had no idea why he wouldn't be sure. Hyde smiled again and reached for his drink again. "I'm rather tired after the live, Tetsu-san. To be honest, right now I'd rather be convincing you to join me for a few beers instead of making any important decisions. You seem like an interesting guy. Unfortunately, my bandmates' understanding of entertainment leaves much to be desired and I have a feeling I'd have much more fun if you'd hung around," he said, not suggestively because that would ruin the image he was trying to create, but still making it sound incredibly tempting.
"I don't really have any other plans tonight," Tetsu answered after a moment of faked deliberation. His voice sounded a tad excited. It added up to the image up he was trying to create.
*****************************************
It was a treat to observe Hyde setting his trap into motion. He engaged Tetsu in interesting conversations, both just between the two of them and with infrequent additions of other people, mainly other members of Jerusalem's Rod. He flirted and managed to look oblivious that he was doing it. He danced exactly the way that showed off his beauty in the best possible way. He let Tetsu take the lead and was never hesitant to act more feminine than others would find appropriate. And most importantly... he ordered drinks. A lot of them. For both of them. In other words, he was trying to get Tetsu drunk and pretended to become rather helplessly inebriated himself. Tetsu seamlessly followed his lead.
They outlasted all of their acquaintances or friends in the club and Tetsu was about to get restless about it going nowhere when Hyde returned after dancing with yet another random woman and collapsed on a nearby bar stool in a decidedly final manner, the alcohol he presumably consumed providing the perfect excuse for him leaning to rest his head tiredly and drunkenly on Tetsu's shoulder.
"I'm sloshed, Tetchan," he slurred. Any formalities between them had already been flung out the window much earlier that evening. "I wanna go home."
Tetsu knew his cue when he heard one.
"Will you get there okay by yourself?" he asked, also faking a slight slur but still managing to look less drunk than Hyde did. Hyde was most likely counting on that after all. This was quite fun.
"Would you take me there if I told you no?" was the mumbled answer back and Tetsu smiled genuinely. Hyde seemed so tiny and helpless right then, no man in his right mind would be able to leave him to deal with his predicament alone. For a moment, he let his own guard slip and just stared at the pure beauty at his side.
"You'll have to tell me where you live then," he said, trying to stand up in preparation of leaving, Hyde rising with him because of how dependently he'd been hanging on to him.
"It's not far. We can walk," he mumbled again, staring at Tetsu now from a disconcertingly small distance when the bassist finished his latest drink and fished out some money to pay for it, ignoring the knowing look the barman threw his way in response.
"Let's go then," he said, snaking an arm around Hyde's waist to support the almost dead-weight of the singer, leading them out of the club.
The slightly cool spring night air helped Tetsu mostly shake off whatever real drunkenness he was feeling and he was thus able to discern Hyde's mangled directions to his apartment. It took them about eighteen minutes to walk (stumble) to the old and beaten up building - not unlike one Tetsu himself resided at this time - that the singer's apartment was in and another six for them to drag themselves up the stairs. There was no sign of a working elevator in the vicinity, not that it was surprising in any way.
"Are you going to be okay now?" Tetsu asked in a whisper while Hyde fumbled with his keys, first trying to find the right one and then struggling to fit it into the keyhole. He paused when he heard the question.
"You're gonna leave?" He asked, holding his eyes unnaturally wide in a way suited for someone as drunk as he was supposed to be.
"If you're alright then I should..."
"Can you point me towards the toilet? I think the beer wants out," he said and Hyde just silently pointed in the needed direction as he continued to just lean on a wall near the entrance with his eyes closed. Tetsu thanked him in a whisper and went off, his mind taking the few minutes of soltitude to work in overdrive and try to get his footing back in the situation.
In his mind, he admitted to himself that the day had gone far from how he expected it to go when he woke up that morning. And while he might know exactly what he was getting into now, a few doubts about how worth it all was continued to plague him through the evening. However, every time they did, he'd remember just how stunning Hyde had been on that stage and the doubts would evaporate without a trace. He knew he wanted, no, needed Hyde to join his band.
As he was about to leave the bathroom Tetsu absentmindedly noticed the lonely shower stall in it. No bath. So no bathing in virgin blood for Hyde then. Tetsu snorted at his own silliness, his serious mood disappearing together with his doubts.
When he returned, he was immediately cornered by Hyde, armed with... a bottle of water?
"Drink," the tiny and beautiful man said, pushing the bottle towards Tetsu's chest, forcing him to take it, "You have to drink a lot after you drink a lot... That is, I mean..." he stumbled in his explanations and Tetsu considered that maybe Hyde really was a bit more drunk than he had assumed he would be, considering how sincerely tangled he became in his own words. "It'll make you feel better... less bad, that is, tomorrow," Hyde eventually finished and Tetsu didn't bother to hide his amusement.
"If you say so," he conceded and drank under the watchful and still unnatural wide-eyed gaze of the singer. When he was satisfied, the singer took the bottle back from him and put it on the ground. Tetsu was curious what Hyde would do next, but he did not really expect the singer to move back closer to him and just lean onto his chest again.
"I thought you seemed to be feeling a bit better," Tetsu noted, but Hyde did not move at all.
"I am. You're just so comfortable, it's far too tempting to just stay like this," the singer explained with a fittingly drunken sounding logic. Tetsu's arms moved to hold the man almost automatically, supposedly to steady him. He was startled again, however, when Hyde suddenly looked up and their faces were suddenly very close together. "Does it bother you? I know I'm strange. I should back away, shouldn't I?"
The singer was suddenly looking apologetic and insecure and actually tried to move away, but Tetsu's hands did not weaken their hold of his body. After all, Tetsu was supposed to be clueless about what was really going on, not about what he should do now. Hyde counted on him to be hooked already and Tetsu was not going to disappoint him.
"It doesn't bother me," he said gently and Hyde looked back up at him with a rather adorably surprised look on his face. "It feels comfortable for me too," it sounded appropriately infatuated and it was the truth. It worked perfectly. The man in his arms stood on his tiptoes to bring their faces close enough for them to almost touch and whispered against his lips.
"I have a spare futon somewhere, but it's an annoyance to have to get it ready. Would you be okay sleeping in the same bed as me?" Even while his shy demeanor remained, he no longer tried to keep up the pretenses and with the situation they were in, Tetsu figured it was just as well.
"I think that would be comfortable as well," he whispered back and bent the remaining distance down.
Unsurprisingly, Hyde tasted of alcohol. Alcohol and cherries from the dessert that the singer had ordered in the club on a whim. But with their lips touching so softly together and their tongues sliding so sensually against one another, the sense of taste seemed to matter so much less than the feeling. Tetsu felt like he was drowning and even as Hyde surrendered to him the control over the kiss, slumping shivering in his arms, Tetsu felt like he was the one losing control instead. Reminding himself that it hardly mattered at this point, he just gave in and enjoyed the sensations that the more than perfect kiss gave him.
"The bedroom?" He asked a little breathlessly when the kiss broke off and Hyde tilted his head in the right direction. They carefully maneuvered themselves towards it, their hands sliding over each other's bodies the whole time. Hyde took advantage of his position as the shorter one to kiss and lick Tetsu's exposed neck. By the time they landed on the small bed, both of their eyes blazed with desire and their hands chaotically sought to remove the other's clothes, while their lips and mouths locked in another devouring kiss.
Since they were rushing so much, naturally their quest for nakedness took longer than it normally would. However, at long last they both breathed out a sigh of relief when the last obstructing article was gone and they could align their bodies perfectly, skin against skin. In the back of his mind Tetsu removed the last errant rumor from the list as he found undeniable evidence of the singer's being a man.
However, this particular man was absolutely content in letting the bassist control the pace. Tetsu soon had him quivering beneath himself as he showered all parts of his body with attention in a seemingly random order that left Hyde gasping for air. But every once in a while a caress, or a moan, or a particularly erotic and visually pleasing arch of the singer's back would pull Tetsu back into reality and remind him of just how familiar Hyde probably was with these bodily pleasures. And he couldn't keep his mind from conjuring less than pleasant thoughts even while Hyde worked his magic on his body. Just how many men had he fooled like this already? How many had he seduced with soft looks, feminine touches and deceivingly submissive gestures? How many had he taken down as just another challenge, just like he believed he was doing now?
But it didn't really matter, because Tetsu hadn't been fooled and he did come here knowing what to expect. When Hyde shyly rolled them over and slid down his body planting kisses and licks and brushes of fingers over Tetsu's tingling body, the bassist abandoned himself to the sensations fully knowing what it would eventually lead to. He could do nothing but celebrate Hyde's expertise when the singer went down on him and deepthroated him with an ease Tetsu had never experienced before.
But he also continued to read Hyde with an unprecedented ease himself and when Hyde rose back up just before Tetsu was about to release and looked down at him with a strange expression on his face, the bassist recognized the significance and inched his own legs wider in an offer with a willingness that Hyde surely did not expect, judging by the expression that immediately showed on his face
One part naivete, one part confidence and one part susceptibility to Hyde's feminine qualities was what Tetsu calculated he would need to get what he wanted. He had been right. He looked up to look at the slightly widened by surprise eyes and let a smirk worm its way onto his face.
"This is the time when you manipulate me to spread my legs for you, right? I just thought I'd save you the trouble."
Hyde's expression froze and Tetsu's smirk widened. With the rules this game had, he was quite sure that he had just won.

Chapter 1
At a certain point of a band's existence, the members realize that as cute and harmless as their fans look, and as much as they appreciate them, it's crucial to keep some distance from them. It's half survival instinct, half an unavoidable PR move and, for a person who needs to get in contact with them for whatever reason that is not worshiping the ground they walk on, it's one hundred percent a pain in the ass.

"If you're alright then I should..."
"That's stupid!" Hyde slurred. "I've enough place for both of us, and it's late and you shouldn't go, because that's stupid."
Not the most logical argument ever, but Tetsu shouldn't be in a state to require one. He took the keys from the singer's hands and made an attempt to put it into the keyhole. Dismissing the one Hyde had picked out as a wrong one, he picked the most likely looking one from the remaining few and inserted it without a problem this time.
"I guess I'm sleeping over then," he said, smiling and opening the door.
"Can you point me towards the toilet? I think the beer wants out," he said and Hyde just silently pointed in the needed direction as he continued to just lean on a wall near the entrance with his eyes closed. Tetsu thanked him in a whisper and went off, his mind taking the few minutes of soltitude to work in overdrive and try to get his footing back in the situation.

And while he might know exactly what he was getting into now, a few doubts about how worth it all was continued to plague him through the evening.

As he was about to leave the bathroom Tetsu absentmindedly noticed the lonely shower stall in it. No bath. So no bathing in virgin blood for Hyde then. Tetsu snorted at his own silliness, his serious mood disappearing together with his doubts.

"It feels comfortable for me too," it sounded appropriately infatuated and it was the truth. It worked perfectly.

"I think that would be comfortable as well," he whispered back and bent the remaining distance down.
Unsurprisingly, Hyde tasted of alcohol. Alcohol and cherries from the dessert that the singer had ordered in the club on a whim. But with their lips touching so softly together and their tongues sliding so sensually against one another, the sense of taste seemed to matter so much less than the feeling. Tetsu felt like he was drowning and even as Hyde surrendered to him the control over the kiss, slumping shivering in his arms, Tetsu felt like he was the one losing control instead.

In the back of his mind Tetsu removed the last errant rumor from the list as he found undeniable evidence of the singer's being a man.
However, this particular man was absolutely content in letting the bassist control the pace. Tetsu soon had him quivering beneath himself as he showered all parts of his body with attention in a seemingly random order that left Hyde gasping for air. But every once in a while a caress, or a moan, or a particularly erotic and visually pleasing arch of the singer's back would pull Tetsu back into reality and remind him of just how familiar Hyde probably was with these bodily pleasures. And he couldn't keep his mind from conjuring less than pleasant thoughts even while Hyde worked his magic on his body. Just how many men had he fooled like this already? How many had he seduced with soft looks, feminine touches and deceivingly submissive gestures? How many had he taken down as just another challenge, just like he believed he was doing now?
But it didn't really matter, because Tetsu hadn't been fooled and he did come here knowing what to expect. When Hyde shyly rolled them over and slid down his body planting kisses and licks and brushes of fingers over Tetsu's tingling body, the bassist abandoned himself to the sensations fully knowing what it would eventually lead to. He could do nothing but celebrate Hyde's expertise when the singer went down on him and deepthroated him with an ease Tetsu had never experienced before.
But he also continued to read Hyde with an unprecedented ease himself and when Hyde rose back up just before Tetsu was about to release and looked down at him with a strange expression on his face, the bassist recognized the significance and inched his own legs wider in an offer with a willingness that Hyde surely did not expect, judging by the expression that immediately showed on his face
One part naivete, one part confidence and one part susceptibility to Hyde's feminine qualities was what Tetsu calculated he would need to get what he wanted. He had been right. He looked up to look at the slightly widened by surprise eyes and let a smirk worm its way onto his face.
"This is the time when you manipulate me to spread my legs for you, right? I just thought I'd save you the trouble."
Hyde's expression froze and Tetsu's smirk widened. With the rules this game had, he was quite sure that he had just won.
