( Kyou )

Sunlight streams on our room, illuminating the pale skin of the beautiful amethyst-eyed boy beside me. I gently caress the downy-soft grey locks on the rat's face. He looks so beautiful, so serene, so angelic and so.. Perfect. I still can't believe that he's mine, even after all the fights we had together in high school.

I moved in with Yuki about a year ago. Shigure-sensei had his whole house renovated and stayed at Hong Kong for a one-year vacation with Ayame in a tourist visa while waiting. Hatori told us to move in to a dormitory or apartment for the meantime. As for Tohru, she decided not to go to college anymore and stay at a local inn before her childhood sweetheart, Kang Na- ra, fetched her to fly to Korea to get married there.

I sigh. A lot of things had happened in the past five years. Sometimes I miss the times when Yuki and fight and wreck the house, when we enjoyed a hearty meal of Tohru's cooking, when we worked it out as friends and when we found that our relationship has a deeper meaning. Since I was the one who courted him, I decided that we both keep our relationship a secret, in fear of what would Akito do when he founds out.

I looked at my lover again as a smile tugged at the corner of my lips. Hatori told us to stay at a dormitory or something, but never expected that we both moved in together. Well, Yuki's a mouse and I'm a cat, who would expect that we loved each other. Well, it's supposed to the opposite. How ironic. We're studying college at the Tokyo Prefecture downtown, it's the only male private university at the region, to avoid transformation, I guess.

Then, I feel the beautiful face in my chest, pulled closer to me. Kami- sama, I'd do anything to have you by my side forever. I sighed again. Sometimes it's hard to keep our relationship both at school and our clan, a secret. My colleagues know that we're staying at the same apartment but they don't know we're staying at the same room. And it's just DARN hard, not to keep pinning in jealousy of all the playboys showing off and flirting around my Yuki. I know that he loves me but.. I guess feeing jealous is normal, though.

But though we're more than friends for the past three years, the daily arguments still hasn't ceased. We argue most on little things but one time, I got so jealous and furious for dating his playboy suitor.

Flashback

"How dare you do this to me?! Never in my life have I cheated you! Why?!" came the question, and I had tears pouring down on my cheeks.

"Iie! How can you say that when you don't even know what I had felt all this time?!" Yuki staggered back.

Then, the unexpected happened. I stuck him across the face. "What is THERE to understand?! But thanks to this, I finally know what kind of person you really are!" I was so angry that I didn't care for the reason anymore.

Yuki was still crying wheni turned to look at him. My heart almost broke from the sight. I love him but I'm angry at him for cheating me and for doubting my love. Wait, something's not right here. I didn't notice the wound on his neck and a painful bruise on his left cheek, which I was sure I wasn't the one who did that since I struck him across the right. "Oh my god, Yuki!" I gasped. I quickly turned on the dim lights which prevented me from noticing it.

I grabbed him by the shoulders and tried to make eye contact. "Who did this to you? Yuki, answer me!"

He is still crying but managed to speak. "Taki.. Taki made me do it! I didn't wan to, Kyou...demo.."

He is unable to finish as I held him tighter, eager to know. "But what? Yuki you have to tell me! Please.. So, he won't hurt you anymore!"

Yuki stiffens in my arms and continued, "He told me that he'll send his gangsters to hurt you. I couldn't do anything but give in. You know that he's rich and he can do anything. They knew, Kyou! They knew about...us."

"And then, what happened?" Then realization struck me. "Oh my god, Yuki! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I... I didn't mean to hurt you and---"

"Daijobou. Anyone would do that in your position." He said assuringly. He lowered his graceful lashes then continued, "He tried to sleep with me, Kyou. But I didn't let him so, he just beat me up instead then molested me." Yuki paused. "Kyou, I'm sorry. I promise I'll be more honest from now on."

"Hush, Yuki. It wasn't your fault. I'm sorry for doubting your love" I apologized as I hugged him lovingly. "I love you."

End of flashback

I treasured and remembered that time when we almost broke up. We were almost relieved when we found out that Taki was expelled at the prefecture after a teacher saw him taking some drugs with his addict friends. Good thing for us, though. But still, even after that, we kept our love a secret. Better be cautious than sorry, right?

I shifted quietly out of bed, quietly placing my lover's head on the pillow to make breakfast. I kissed him gently on the forehead. "Ohayou, nezumi." I left the room quietly and headed for the kitchen. When I passed by the small living room, I saw a familiar figure leaning lankily on the door with his hands on his pockets.

"Ne, Kyou, making breakfast for MY Yuki-chan? How disgustingly sweet." He retorted.

"Haru.." It wasn't only Haru, it was Black Haru. He looked around the room, then back at me. I almost forgot that I was only in my boxers since I wasn't used to having visitors early in a weekend morning. He smirked and peeped into our shared room. Oh shit. Now, he found out. Another smirk. Oh, how I hate to hell that smirk. "Had fun with MY Yuki-chan last night,huh?"

He was now looking at me after he saw my lover's bare chest. "What the hell are you doing here?" I questioned him.

"I just wanted to see how my love is doing."

It's my time to smirk. "And what makes you think he's happy being yours?" Damn it! I was supposed to keep it a secret. I hope it doesn't show any hint of jealousy.

Haru smiled an evil grin that I almost regretted asking. "Because I'm going to make him to and he's gonna be mine."

My cheeks are burning, I can feel my damn anger rising. "Yeah? You think he'll be happy with you? Tha's bullshit, Haru and you know it!"

Haru looked blankly at me as a glint in his eyes appeared as if he didn't hear anything. "Sleeping in bed together, living in together, hiding it from the family, I wonder what Akito would do once he gets here."

My amber eyes widened in shock. No, he couldn't possibly know. If so, how? They were certainly not obvious enough. And the worst was yet to come, then came a question, what would Akito do when he reaches here? He likes Yuki and I don't think he'll even leave me alive with this one. Oh, Kami-sama, what am I going to do? "Masaka..."

And our paradise was shattered in a moment's time as there was a a knock on the door, knowing all to well what fate will befall on the both of us.

Oh, Kami-sama, please help us!
