Summary: I have always prayed, not much, but just enough to express my gratitude. Ruki's POV.
Disclaimer: No, I don't own them, if I did, Uruporn would be on the market. I am just sayin'.
Comments: Once again got the idea from a song while in a sleepy haze and I thought it was a GazettE song but it turned out to be Lena Park…fail. Anyone who knows the song knows its the Japanese version of 'You Raise Me Up' but its a little bit different if you know the translation. Song: Inori by Lena Park

I have always prayed, not much, but enough to express my gratitude. I never really used prayer to ask for anything either. I always thought just hard work would get me there, but I was wrong of course. So one day I prayed for band members that would not just be my band members, but my best friends as well. It turned out I had two with me all along, Reita and Uruha, then when the GazettE started, Aoi and Yune came along. Soon Yune left and Kai came along. He’s not only our best friend, but he’s our leader as well, even if he wasn’t in the band as long as the rest of us, he's our leader because he really does have a heart of gold.

Later in 2004 I prayed for a little bit of acknowledgment among the music scene. It was granted when we reached number two in the Oricon indie charts with our album Madara on the thirtieth of March. We were all so glad, everything was happening so fast. Yet I didn’t feel happy, yes I had friends to share it with…but I wanted someone special to share it with as well. Someone who I could love and they could love me in return, not for my fame or money or any of that, but love me for me. So in 2005 I prayed for my soul mate, I waited and waited and it had seemed it was never answered until I realized they were in front of me all along.

It was the night we started discussing about future tours, albums and EPs. I was walking back to the train station when I heard running footsteps behind me. Turning around I saw a breathless, panting Reita standing there hunched over trying to breathe.

“Reita?”

He stood up and looked a bit flustered.

“I…uhm…ran all the way here to ask you something…”

“Yes?”

He was fiddling with his buttons on his coat and mumbled a little.

“On…on Saturday would you like to go to the movies and have dinner with me…you don’t have to…I was just wondering…”

I blushed a little looking down and walked over to him, I had always admired Reita, he was gorgeous. He could have anyone and frankly I had thought he and Uruha had a thing. I didn’t think he would ever want anyone like me, I was nothing special or beautiful, compared to Uruha, I was an ugly duckling, why would he want the ugly duckling when he could have the swan?

“I would love to, Reita…just call me when you have the details all ready.”

I kissed his cheek and then ran off like a blushing school girl.

We had it good for seven months until I messed everything up, we got into a fight over something stupid I don’t even remember anymore. So then I prayed to God for a song that would express how sorry I was. I came up with the song Cassis, I still hate it to this day because of the memories it brings up. When Reita read the lyrics he knew it was for him, even if it was hidden behind such discreet words. When he looked at me I couldn’t look him in the eyes, I was scared about what he had thought about it. Later that night he came to house with such a cliché gift of flowers and chocolate and apologized for being a jerk. I started crying and hugged him apologizing for about an hour till I fell asleep in his arms.

For years I was content and I didn’t pray and then right before Tokyo Dome I felt the need to pray. I prayed that everything would go good. It did we had fans from all over the world, America, Germany, Australia, I was just so surprised at the turn out. I never thought that we had so many fans. When I gave my speech I made everyone cry, it broke my heart when I saw Reita in tears, I know they were ones of happiness, but I never want to make him cry, or anyone in our band cry. I guess it was the over whelming emotions we had, nervousness, happiness, everything felt swelled into one thing and we all released it by crying. That was the greatest day of our musical careers.

On my birthday we had a party, but all I wanted was to sit at home and cuddle with Reita, as womanly as that sounds I don’t care. On my birthday I prayed for all my band members to have long healthy lives, that was my birthday wish as well.

I believed everything was going to be great since we finally hit all these mile stones. Until the disaster struck with the tsunami and earthquake. I wasn’t with Reita at the time and I didn’t know if he was okay or not. Service for cell phones and landlines were down, I panicked and I was home alone with Koron, so I cried. I didn’t know if anything happened, because as I was watching the news I saw what was happening to all those houses, cars and trains that had people inside them. I prayed to God hoping that Reita was okay, nothing would be worse for than knowing Reita’s body may be somewhere in the ocean. A knock on my door made me jump and I ran to it opening it up seeing Reita there in his pajamas, hair unstyled, no make up just pure natural looks. To me at that moment he never looked so beautiful.

“Ruki?”

“Rei...Akira, you’re okay.”

“Yeah…but are you okay?”

“I am now because I know you’re fine. I thought…”

“Don’t finish that thought then. I am okay.”

I nodded, still scared out of mind because it was filled with ‘what ifs’.

Now here I am sitting on my couch curled up next to Reita. I’m going through all these things I asked for, but not once did I say thank you. I should do that now. I thank God for every prayer he has answered. I also pray that everything will be okay for my country, I pray that everything will eventually settle in the world and violence will be non-existent. I will also pray fro equality and justice for people who are ‘different’ for their sexuality, disabilities and anything that’s not ‘normal’ to society. Now I also thank God in advance for all the day’s he’s allowing me to live my dream and live days with the love of my life. I realize now, with hard work and prayers things I want will come true.

“Taka…what are you thinking about?”

“Nothing…just…thinking I need to be more thankful for everything I have…”

“I see…well…what are you thankful for?”

“Everything. Also that I get to spend my life with you. I love you.”

“Love you too, Taka.”

“Aki…”

“Hm?”

“Thank you.”

“For what?”

“For loving me.”

I think I may also pray that our little love story will never end. He's my everything, I don't think I could function without him. Dear God...I pray for this to last forever.

A/N: well this was fun to write. I am not trying to push my religion onto you promise. Anyways I wrote this because some of this is stuff I believe. People say God is going to send homosexuals to hell for loving their same gender, please, blow me. He made them like that for a reason…I think that’s my main reason for writing this? To show not all us Christians are such simpletons. >,> I guess. Anyways hope you enjoyed.

romance, reitaxruki
