"Aaya...There's something I want to tell you..." the novelist told his silver-haired lover.

"What is it, Gure-san? Why do you look so sad?"

Trying to gulp down the lump that had formed in his throught, he took his lover's hand and looked into his yellow eyes.

"Akito...He..."

Ayame too had heard the story that Akito had told the dog of the Zodiac, but he wasn't planning on following the orders of the head of the house.

"I know. He confronted me too. But I don't care."

"What?! How could you not care? He's the head of the house?!"

Shigure instantly felt guilty as those words passed his lips, he never was one to cry, but right now, he was on the verge of doing so.

"I'm sorry, Aaya...I wish there was something I could do..."

Angered, the snake of the zodiac stood up suddenly to snap at the man he loved.

"Forget Akito! What about us?! Don't you...Don't you care? About us?"

Ayame looked straight into Shigure's eyes as he uttered those very words, waiting for a reaction, it took all of the novelist's strength to utter a response.

"Of course I do..." was simply all he said.

"Then why?" Ayame's eyes began to fill with tears as he said it. "Why are you breaking us apart, Gure-san? Why over him?"

Shigure too rose from his seat and just embraced his lover as tightly as he could, finally past the verge of tears, and now sobbing into his shoulder.

"Aaya..."

"Don't Aaya me!"

"Aaya...Please..."

Shigure lightly grabbed Ayame's chin, and placed his thumb on his soft lips to silence him. Looking straight into his amber eyes, brimming with sadness, he uttered three simple words.

"I love you..."

Then in one swift motion, Shigure captured Ayame's lips with his own, pouring all the love that he had in his heart into a kiss that seemed to last for hours. All too soon, the kiss ended and the two of them pulled apart.

"Gure-san..."

"I know. I'm upset too...I just don't want you to get hurt...Like Tori-san did while he was dating Kana..."

"But who says Akito has to find out about us?! Who?!" Ayame demanded.

"Aaya...If Akito finds out..."

"I know...But...I want us to be together...Always."

"Aaya..."

"Gure-san..."

Ayame pulled his slightly perverted lover back in for a second kiss, this time, it lasted much longer than the first. Their tongues explored each others mouths, even wrestling with each other. The only thing that stopped them was Yuki, Kyo and Tohru walking through the door and into their little "moment".

"We're home, Shigu...re..."

Tohru just stood in shock as she had caught them right in the moment. Ayame and Shigure looked at the three students that just came home from school quite shocked, and slightly embarrassed.

"I...I don't even want to ask." Yuki commented, then the three of them just headed off to their rooms quickly, allowing the two lovers to continue their make-out session.
