"It's no use. The doors are stuck," Yuki said backing away.

"You damn rat! Don't stop trying!" Kyo called as he angrily tried to get a firm grip on the smooth elevator doors.

Earlier that evening, upon request by Shigure, the two Sohma boys went to pick up Tohru from work. Neither one of them wanted to leave Tohru alone with the other. As a result, they had to bear each other's company.

Upon arrival at the building where Tohru worked, the boys were told to meet her on the twentieth floor. They both boarded the elevator not uttering a word to each other. The boys stood at polar ends of elevator with their eyes glued on the counter, willing it to go faster.

17- 18 -19 –

There was a sudden jolt sending the boys flying into each other. Then the lights went out.

A few seconds passed by before the emergency backup lights came on. Yuki and Kyo were entangled on the floor. They quickly pushed off each other and practically flew to the door; desperately trying to pry it open.

"Stupid cat," Yuki said as he leaned up against the wall, "There is no way we are going to open that door, so you might as well stop."

Kyo tugged at the door as hard as he could, obviously ignoring Yuki.

"Idiot," Yuki said under his breath.

Kyo turned around sharply, his fist aimed for Yuki's head. Yuki shifted slightly to the right causing Kyo to punch the wall beside him. Kyo now stood less than a foot away from Yuki, with his arm virtually pinning him to the wall. The boys stared at each other awkwardly before Yuki broke the silence.

"You're so slow. You can-" Yuki wasn't able to finish his taunt because Kyo firmly planted a rough kiss on his lips.

Yuki went tense. His first reaction was to push Kyo away, but he couldn't move. Something deep within him made him stay where he was: pushed against the wall by Kyo. Yuki began to kiss Kyo back.

The kisses got rougher and rougher as both boys struggled for dominance. Yuki ran his fingers through Kyo's hair, pressing the boys face against his own. Kyo pressed his hips into Yuki's. Soon, the boys were in a fury kissing and hip grinding. It was so intense that they didn't even notice that the elevator started to move. The elevator doors opened up on the twentieth floor.

"Uh… Oh, I'm sorry!"

Both boys looked up at the same moment. They saw Tohru, along with the rest of the cleaning staff looking at them. Kyo and Yuki quickly pushed off each other, their faces bright red.

The Sohma boys shifted uncomfortably under the stare of the employees. Yuki and Kyo stole a glance at each other. Then, Kyo quickly reached for the 'close door' button and pressed it.

Finally, a use for the thing.
