"~Oiiiii!" Shirogane just wouldn't be quiet, so I immediately turned away and walked faster.

"Akira-kun~ Your sooo cruel! How could you leave me behind like that!"

"Your just so creepy"." Who would start yelling someones name while grinning like a pervert?"

"I am not a pervert, I am simply an overjoyed shadow."

"Whatever." Its not like I wasn't used to this already. Shirogane has known me for 4 months already, but fighting the kokuchi's has been taking up a lot of time. It's not like I want to spend more time with him anyway... I slapped my face to try to get the blushing to stop. What is wrong with me? Having Shirogane on my mind all the time was starting to piss me off.

"~Oiiii! Akiraaaa!" Kengo's voice pulled me out of my internal stuggle. "Oh, Kengo I thought for sure you died by Ayane's hands by now",

"How mean! You know I can take her down anyday!"

"I'd like you to say that to the Gorilla face behind you"...

"W...What"! Kengo turned around only to see Ayane's aura bursting into flames.

"Kengo.. Go die for me". I said as I used Kengo as a shield for me.

"Nooooooo"!

As I ran away I could've sworn I heard a crack. Probably Kengo's skull being beat to a pulp by Ayane and her Bamboo sword.

"You shouldn't have left him all alone." Shirogane said.

"I thought you already left", which was a lie, I was very concious of him being right next to me.

"You know I would never leave you..."

I didn't say anything back. I was trying to hide the blush by looking away from him.

"Akira?"

"W..What..." I said breathlessly

"Your face is all red. Do you have a fever? He said as he gently put his hand on my forehead.

"N...NO!" I said as I pushed his hand away from my face. I can't stand it when he touches me, because every time he does I feel like i'm going to loose control, that i'm going to end up doing something I shouldn't.

"Oh, I see then..." Shirogane said. The rest of the walk home it was eerily quiet.

As we both walked into my house I turned the light on and started to make tea, while Shirogane turned on the T.V. and went to the bathroom. Once the tea was done and Shirogane came out of the bathroom we both sat down at the table with our tea and watched television.

"Akira, I have something to talk to you about..."

"What is it?" I said while nervously looking around.

"I think it's time that I found my own place to live". Shirogane said as stirring his tea.

"B...But why?, I mean I really don't mind you being here" I said with my best poker face I could do. Why did he want to move out now! My heart was screaming as I was sure that tears would start falling down my face.

"I think it would be the best for the both of us", Shirogane said smiling.

"Oh, okay then..." Why do I have to be so stupid? Why can't I ever say what is truly on my mind?

"Great! Then I'll have my stuff packed and moved out by tomorrow!"

Man. Today was a really bad day. I was watching a movie on my bed when I finally drifted to sleep still miserable by today's events.

In my dream something amazing happened. Shirogane knew exactly what was on my mind as I told him that I didn't want him to leave. I hugged him as hard as I could, knowing this was a dream, and that I didn't want to ever wake up.

-"Akira?...Akiraa?..." Shirogane woke me up, as I complained and told him I wanted to go back to sleep.

"Is it true that you don't want me to move?" Shirogane's question made me bolt right out of bed. Great. Have I been talking in my sleep?

"U..Umm", I was so nervous that I could barely talk.

Shirogane looked into my eyes as if searching for my answer. "You know, I would stay if you asked me to.."

At that moment I couldn't help the tears that were spilling down my cheeks.

"Are you alright!" Shirogane said as he hugged me and told me that he would stay.

"I...I'm fine..." I said as blushing because of Shirogane's embrace.

"Akira... Do you like me?" His question made me do a wide eyed stare

"U...Umm" I couldn't answer the question because i'm pretty sure that my face had turned scarlet up to my ears.

"The reason I wanted to move out in the first place was because I felt awkward being around you all the time because I like you...", Shirogane said as looking soulfully into my eyes.

I couldn't answer in words so I hugged him tightly as I looked up then put my lips to his. This I could tell surprised him. But not for long as he started to kiss back.
