Chapter 43


"The prosecution calls Youji Collins to the stand." Junko squeezed his little brother's hand in reassurance and Youji offered him a nervous smile before going to the witness stand.

Youji is sworn in as Ryan stands up.

"Youji you are Defendant Jacklon's boyfriend correct?" Youji nods, speaking clearly.

"Yes, I am."

"Rather young to have a boyfriend of 16. Are you sexually active with him?" Youji nods.

"Only by my own insistence."

"So your insistance would include turning yourself into a vitual hooker right?" Youji growls.

"Excuse me?" Ryan pulls out a screen shot of Youji in his former bedroom about to pull his pants off.

"Explain this image Youji." Youji shrugs.

"Looks like you caught me getting dressed. You'll have to be more specific."

"Why did you make the video from where this image was taken from?" Youji shrugged.

"I made videos for myself. I had a few people express interest in buying them, so I figured why not."

"You mean you were supplying men with these images?" Malcom stands up.

"Your honor?" The judge looks at Ryan.

"Is this line of question realivant?" Ryan nods.

"Youji who was one of your biggest benefactors?" Youji shrugged.

"I didn't keep track. I had a Paypal account set up so I didn't have to." Ryan picks up the list.

"Your biggest buyer was Maximous Remington. So with that in mind tell me Youji. How pissed off was Jacklon when he found out your were fucking his daddy?" Youji growls.

"I never allowed any of them to touch me." Ryan smirks.

"But you wanted too. I have conversations from people you sent your videos to. You seemed pretty deserate to lose your precious virginaty. You just seemed to hit the jack pot with big daddy didnt you? Or did he not want to screw a little kid so instead you go for his offspring. I mean hey your family isnt the Vanderbelts so it would be safe to say your probably just like your boyfriend in the sex fiend department." Malcom stands up fast.

"Objection!" Youji snarled at the man.

"You don't know what the fuck you're talking about!"

"Oh yes you do i have statements from those men that you were willing to bone for the price of a pair of shoes. Why did you do it Youji did you feel like your brother was just being a bad rolemodel by always being gone? So you went to find a guy to take care of you?" Ryan smirks he knew Malcom's objection was useless.

Youji's face darkened and he clenched his fists.

"I don't need anyone to take care of me. I'm. Not. A. BURDEN!" he yelled as the man had hit a sore spot.

"Your honor! The witness is not on trial." Malcom yells as Hoshi looks at Junko.

Junko's head spun. Had...had he really failed so badly with his brother...He'd thought Youji just had a lot of friends. It had never occured to him that Youji's money came from older men. He felt his head getting lighter and his eyes rolled back in his head. He collapsed to the floor with a hollow thunk. Hoshi springs up as everyone got up. Hoshi knelt by Junko holding him.

"Junko?! Junko baby wake up! Someone call an ambulance!" Ryan nodded as he called 911.

He may be a cold hearted bastard but he didnt want someone dying on court property. Youji leapt from the podium to get to his brother. He took up Junko's hand and squeezed it. Junko felt all this as though they were all very far away. He tried to squeeze back, but was afraid his hand hadn't obeyed. Soon paramedics were there to take Junko to the hospital. Once Junko was settled in the small room where he had an IV in his arm. He was dihydraded and was very tired. Hoshi was in the waiting room sitting next to Youji. He gently pulled Youji close petting his hair.

"Dont let that bastard get you down Youji." Youji went easily, curling against the man.

"You know I didn't let them touch me, don't you?" Hoshi nods.

"You would have cut his ponytail off if he had." Jacklon steps over and gently pets Youji's hair.

"Looks like we both have some issues with sex." Youji gives Jacklon a wan smile.

"What...what do you think's wrong with Junko?" he asks, sounding worried.

Jacklon sighs.

"The docter said he was dihydraded but thats all i got out of them. You want to try Hoshi?" Hoshi nods and walks over to the docter by the nurse.

"Sir? Is Junko Collins alright?" The docter looks at him then gently pulls him aside.

He was out of ear shot of the boys as the docter whispered to him. The look of shock, awe and confusion all mared his face. Hoshi quickly moved to Junko's room and looked down at him. He gently pushed a strand of Junko's hair behidn his ear. What the docter told him scared him and made him very confused. Youji grabs Jacklon's hand and sprints to the door.

"What was that all about?" He asks in concern.

"What's wrong with him? Is he going to be okay?" Hoshi stands there as he doesnt say anything.

He needed to talk to Junko before he even repeated what the docter told him. Youji clenches his fists in frustration, accidentally squeezing Jacklon's hand hard.

"He's my brother! Will someone tell me what the hell's going on!?" Jacklon holds him close as Hoshi sits beside Junko.

"Junko... sweet heart... wake up please..." Junko groaned at the sound of Hoshi's voice.

His head was killing him and his mouth tasted oddly bitter.

"Mmwha....what...?" Hoshi gently pets his cheek.

"Hey there baby... how are you feeling?" Junko pauses to take stock of himself. "Like I got hit by a truck. Why? What's going on? Where...am I in the hospital?" Junko sits up abruptly in alarm.

"Wha...what happened?"

"You passed out in the court room... Junko... have you been feeling off in recent months?" Hoshi sits close to him.

Junko sighs and tries to relax.

"Well, with everything that's been going on...I mean, I've been a little tired and...I think I may have picked up a stomach flu, but really I'm okay. Once we get through this trial thing, I'm sure I'll be fine. I don't need to be in the hospital."

"Junko... the docter said that... im still trying to figure out how this is possible... but he said that your..." Hoshi couldnt seem to get it out. Junko's throat tightened.

"I'm what? I...is it not the flu? Oh, god, is it worse? What's wrong?" Hoshi holds his hand tight.

"Pregnant." Junko stares at him uncomprehendingly while Youji gasps.

Youji covers his mouth with his hand, his eyes going wide. Jacklon looked at Hoshi in confusion as he suddenly had a thought. If Junko could get pregnant then couldnt... He looked at Youji fast. Youji meets Jacklon's eyes with his own wide ones.

"I'm fine...so far. But...er...maybe we should....be careful?" Jacklon nods as Hoshi gulps and holds Junko's hand.

"The docter said that your family is one of the few blood lines that can produce child in their male lines. But that doesnt make sense." Junko closes his eyes.

"Damn it, Hoshi. You scared the shit out of me. Now what's wrong with me, really?" Hoshi blinks and holds his hands.

"Junko im being completely serious. You are about 3 months pregnant." Junko's eyes go wide at the serious tone in Hoshi's voice.

"Y-you...I can't...possibly..." His eyes widen further as another thought occurs to him.

"Where the hell is it supposed to come out?!"

"I dont know thats why i was confused. The docter did tell me that we could ask him about it when he comes in to check on you."

"O-o-okay." He spans his hands over his stomach with a slow-blooming smile.

"I...Oh my god...Hoshi...we..." He looks into his lover's eyes, speechless and close to happy tears.

All his wishes...everything he ever wanted....was all coming true... Hoshi slowly smiles and pulls Junko close. He was happy that Junko could have his wish of children come true. Jacklon looked at Youji and smiled.

"Do you want kids?" Youji raises an eyebrow.

"If I do it won't be for a loooooooong time. And, uh...I'm not popping 'em out. No way." Jacklon chuckles.

"Well i cant do it. Your part of the family that can." Youji wrinkles his nose.

"Let's skip it and get a dog." he jokes. Jacklon smiles and runs his hand over his stomach.

"I wouldnt mind having your babies." Hoshi slowly lets go.

"Malcom said the judge granted a continuance for tomorrow." Junko's happy mood dissolves with the mention of the trial, but his resolve hardens.

If things go wrong...They won't break up his family. He'd rather raise his baby in Mexico with Hoshi than all alone. Hoshi pets his hair.

"Dont worry. I have an idea. Malcom is doing his best but i think maybe if we look into the evidence ourselves. Maybe we can find a way around it." Hoshi smiles. "We can stay up tonight and play detective. Not nessasarily clothed." Junko and Youji both grin.

Youji turns to Jacklon.

"Does that mean we can play doctor?" Jacklon chuckles.

"Alright ill be the docter you get to be the paitent." Junko's grin widens and he wraps his arms around Hoshi's neck.

"I love you, you know." he says matter of factly.

Hoshi smiles and kisses his lips.

"And i love you too."
