6. Their Universe

Boc--ch--an, w-why are y-ou?"

fragile omega can't breathe, in this situation. He is too weak to free himself from his Bocchan's grip, his eyes are teary now. Not because he is having problem breathing or having a fever but he had a wonderful dream few minutes ago, where everything started. But now he will die in Izumi's hand. Wow!

"I am not gonna kill you, don't worry I am just giving you a warning, my father is on his way if you dare to say anything unnecessary, you will receive a great REWARD FROM ME"

he loses his grip, wearing his usual poker face.

Ikeda Akio's P.O.V

Why does he hate me so much? from my dream just now it's not that bad, actually it wasn't a dream it was my memory. My memory is like a chemical factory where I can find medicine which has healing power or poison, which will turn my body blue if I take them and lead me to death. But I am glad a few minutes ago I saw a medicinal memory as a dream but reality is harsh.

I suddenly realise there is someone else in that room.

Wait why is he here? My heart beats increase as I see him here, don't tell me he is here for me.

"Ikeda Akio san how are you, I heard from Watanabe that you were hospitalised, I was worried about you so I came with him"

It's none other than Sato Daichi, he says those words with a smirk on his face. He his sitting on the sofa and looking straight at me. How long has he been here? Does he have any ulterior motive? Why he is getting so friendly with me? I look at Bocchan, who is now sitting beside my bed, Oh I get it. Ojisan is coming so he has to show his good side. But what is that bast**d Sato Daichi over there doing here? He is looking at me, why? He doesn't like me but from that day....No, no I can't be around him. He is dangerous.

End of Ikeda Akio's P.O.V

"Akio kun are you feeling better now?"

Fujita Reiji enters the room.

"Yes, Fujita Ojisan "

Watanabe Hiroshi also enters the room after his secretary.

"How are you son?"

Ikeda Akio never dreamed about that Watanabe Hiroshi would come.

He gets nervous and wants to leave the bed.

"It's ok, you don't have to maintain formalities, let's go home ok?"

It's rare to see Watanabe Hiroshi, 9 to 10 months he lives in abroad. At that time Fujita Reiji deals with the office work and Butler Ota deals with Watanabe mansion. Watanabe Hiroshi, is a successful business man and his business his like his heartbeat. For business he used to leave his son alone at home. Butler Ota and other servant and maids were enough but he gave permission Abe family to stay at Watanabe mansion because he wanted to give his son a warm family.

But he knows very well Abe Koji and his father's hidden agenda. He realised Abe Koji's drama on that day when he framed his son, for bullying Ikeda Akio. He knew Izumi would never do something like that. Still he got angry, because his son was too weak to protect himself. But when 12 years old omega speaks for Izumi despite of under psychological trauma, Watanabe Izumi made his mind. He knows only Ikeda Akio can protect Watanabe Izumi.

So no matter what happens he won't let go of Akio. This omega is always there for his alpha son still circumstances made Izumi cold hearted. And somehow Watanabe Hiroshi is also responsible for his son's rudeness.

Senior Watanabe knows Akio will make everything better.

"But Ojisan, I can't go back"

"You have to go back son, Izumi can't live without you"

Watanabe Hiroshi says with a wide smile

Izumi turns his face with disbelief what's his father saying.

"..."

Young omega doesn't know what to say either.

He can't say 'NO' to him, Watanabe Hiroshi provided best treatment when he was in trauma. How can he become ungrateful?

He looks into Izumi's honeyed expressionless eyes, as expected; he is wearing his poker face again. But somehow that 'Chimpanzee Sato Daichi' is very happy.

Slender omega comes to Watanabe mansion again, it's so suffocating here. He goes to his room again

He doesn't know why a cold and calculated person like Watanabe Hiroshi shows so much interest in him but he knows there is something which is related to Izumi.

At night Ikeda Akio can't sleep properly, he has made up his mind. He directly goes to Watanabe Hiroshi's study room good thing is Hiroshi is awake, he is reading something

"Ojisan, may I come in? I have something to tell you"

"Yes child, come inside"

He goes inside, He hasn't seen Watanabe Hiroshi for last 5 months, today at the hospital he didn't realise that Watanabe Hiroshi has lost so much weight. Watanabe Izumi is the exact copy of his father, Watanabe Hiroshi is the older version of his son.

"You have lost so much weight, Ojisan. Are you ok?"

"Yes child I am fine it's just that rascal gives me headaches and Abe family"

he says with usual Poker face

Here we go again, they don't have any facial expression. Like father like son

"Ojisan, I want to work. Besides my study and university I don't have anything to do so I have been thinking..."

"I know, it's all because of Izumi, if you want you can work at Watanabe corporation"

"No, Ojisan...I want do something on my own"

"Ok, but don't forget if you have any--"

"Thank you, Ojisan I will do my best and thank you for your support"

he bows down, he stops Watanabe Hiroshi in midway, he feels lighter now. If someday young alpha kicks him again, he will be able to support himself.

After his father's death this medical student gets monthly allowances from Watanabe Hiroshi, he only accepts 8000yen per month, that is enough for him. He is studying medical studies on scholarship.

He never thought he would get scholarship because he skipped his middle school. Engrossed in his thoughts he forgets when he reaches infront of Watanabe Izumi's bedroom. Young alpha is afraid of ghosts he doesn't sleep in dark room.

"He is still afraid of ghosts, I bet he is sleeping but lights are on"

He opens Izumi's room, sneakily enters the room. It's not first time, whenever he is upset or happy, he wants to see Izumi's sleeping face. This person is Ikeda Akio's universe.

Why does he love him so much? He doesn't know the answer. He crouches bedside sleeping alpha's bed and touches his plump cheek, flawless porcelain skin, long eyelashes caressing his upper part of his cheekbones, though Akio's eyelashes are longer than Izumi. When shy omega gets a glimpse of his Bocchan he forgets everything.

I will yearn you from afar,

I will secretly fasten you with the rope of Love. I know you are someone else's world but for me you are my universe.

Akio wrote these words in his long letter and ofcourse he couldn't give it . Universe! when did Izumi become Akio's universe? immersed in his own world Akio fails to notice that Izumi is awake, he holds delicate omega's hand, Akio gasps as if Izumi is gonna kill him.

" Ikeda Akio, why are touching my cheek and what are you doing in my room?"

"I...I...was going to my room, your lights we---"

"Really? than go back to your room"

"Yes"

Akio is surprised that Izumi lets him go without insulting him. But why? why does he suddenly....

Akio leaves the room

Watanabe Izumi's P.O.V

Oniichan, you have betrayed me so many times. I hate you so much. You have destroyed my every dream, you only love yourself and my father's money. Do you really love me? huh!!

Flash back

3rd October 2005

After school, Izumi goes to his Oniichan's room every day. Today as well he goes to older boy's room, day after tomorrow Akio's birthday, he is going to be 14years old. He has a special gift for his Oniichan.

Ikeda Akio is normal now, after 2years of constant counseling. He talks normally, he will start his high school soon. He will be attending same high school where his Bocchan goes, Izumi is in middle school but that school has a high school too.

Dance enthusiast alpha wants to become a professional dancer but his father doesn't know about it, nobody knows about it except his Oniichan. Izumi has enrolled in a dance school, he has been going to dance school for last one month but nobody knows. He wants to be free, free like migratory birds, Birds, rivers and the gusts of wind, no borders can stop them. The borders are there for humans. If he were a bird he would live freely, he would fulfil his own dreams.

He was born with the silver spoon, he will share the burden of his father. But what about his own dreams? He has loved his mother but what has he gained in return. But now he has found a new source of light, he knows if he is with his Oniichan he will have everything. In every situation he will fight for his dreams and his Oniichan.

Abe Koji says he has to marry a girl or boy from an influential family but why? He doesn't want to end his relationship with his partner like his parents did. He doesn't want his child to suffer same fate like him. No, he only wants his Oniichan, he wants to hide him from every problem. Akio is so innocent, he is older than Izumi but he doesn't know how world works. From morning to night young alpha only thinks about his Oniichan, how to make him happy, how to protect him from others, how to become stronger and eligible for him.

Akio is Izumi's Universe.

"Oniichan, I have something to tell you"

Izumi says excitedly.

"What? you are so excited, calm down" Akio says wearing a smile

" Oniichan I am going to participate in national dance competition, I already have won the preliminary, so I have to represent our city in national dance competition but there is a problem"

Izumi is upset, watching his Bocchan's upset face, Akio wants to solve the problem, though he doesn't know what exactly the problem is.

"It needs father's signature. In my dance school they know about Dad. But they can't help me in this matter. But Dad will never allow it. So I have said next year I will participate in the competition again and I think in one year I will make Dad agree on this matter."

"That's great in one year you will learn more. Don't be upset"

"No, I am not upset atleast not now but Oniichan don't tell anyone about this I will tell Dad personally"

"Sure" Akio says while patting Yibo's head.

"Oniichan, I have a surprise for you for your birthday "

Thrilled alpha can't wait anymore.

"...."

Akio only smiles.

Izumi is now at school. Watanabe Hiroshi wants to wish Ikeda Akio on his birthday. So little omega is now in Watanabe Hiroshi's study room.

"Happy birthday child, so what do you want today?"

"Nothing, thank you for your blessings"

"Then can I ask you something on your special day?"

"Yes, sure"

"I got a call from Izumi's school, his grades are not good. And he skips classes sometimes. Is he taking drugs like his mother?

"No,no he won't do that and he is only 12 years old"

"Then, is he becoming a gangster?"

"No, Ojisan he won't become a gangster either"

"Then, where does he go, after school?"

"I...i....do...don't... kno....know Ojisan"

"Child I know he shares everything with you, if he does something bad, ahh he is becoming like his wild mother, how will I live without my son?"

"...."

"I am sure he has made friends with the bullies or druggies"

"....."

"It's all my fault he is becoming like this"

Bocchan will tell ojisan someday about his dream anyway, if I tell him now he will stop worrying about Bacchan, this much. Ojisan is thinking Bocchan is taking drugs, or becoming gangster

Little omega thinks about it

"Ojisan, may I ask you something? I mean as a gift?"

"Sure, tell me"

Senior Watanabe assures him while smoking.

"Bocchan, goes to dance school, he has won dance competition but he is afraid you will not allow him to dance so he is taking his time to tell you. Ojisan please let him dance that will be my gift from you"

"Ahhhh, so he goes to dance school, well fine then. You may go to your room now"

after letting out the stored smoke from his mouth Senior alpha says.

"Thank you Ojisan."

Innocent omega goes back to his room wearing his smile, only a few words and Akio fell into cunning Watanabe Hiroshi's trap. Watanabe Hiroshi never thought this would be so easy!

Fujita Reiji can't understand Watanabe Hiroshi's motives

"Sir may I ask you something?"

" hmm "

Hiroshi lit another cigarette.

"You, can easily find what has been Bocchan doing these days, why did you made Akio kun to say all these?"

"Fujita Reiji, if you were Watanabe Hiroshi would you allow a mere driver's son as your only son's partner?"

"But sir, Akio kun is an innocent child"

"I know he is innocent but sometimes a gardener has to cut some buds to make one flower special, so that viewers can appreciate that flower's beauty. Some are born to become stairs of others. Akio is one of them. Business is all about profits, there is no place for love. Hate will make Izumi stronger "

"Sir, but Akio will suffer"

"Fujita San, do your work now"

Izumi comes back from dance school and enters Akio's room

"ONIICHAN, WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME?"

He is putting pressure in every word, Izumi is so angry that he is clenching his fist, which has become white due to excessive pressure; his face and earlobes are red as well.

Akio has never seen him angry, he doesn't know what has he done

"I don't un--"

"Haven't I told you before not to tell anyone about my dance school, you have told father now he has withdrawn my name from dance school infact he has given instruction to every dance school that they can't enroll my name. My dream....my dream has been ruined....I am not upset because he did this to me, he would do the same thing if I told him personally but why did you tell him? I trusted you Oniichan "

End of flash back

Akio, Ikeda Akio that was the first time you betrayed me, you have been lying to me since my childhood, you have destroyed my every dream, everything about you is fake. Your tears, your love, your pain. Oniichan I wanted to make you suffer but I was wrong you never loved me so it's useless. But I can't do anything about my feelings Oniichan. You are still my Universe.

Tears rolling down his face, in light little water drops are looking like diamonds.
