"Damn it all!" Kyo screamed throwing the Monopoly board up in frustration not knowing that he had hit a certain girl carrying yummy tea and cakes.
"You idiot." Yuki said in a dangerously soft voice smacking the orange-haired boy across the face with a swipe of his hand.
The girl stood smiling sheepishly knowing that nothing she said could stop the two boys she knew so well to stop fighting. She nervously tucked a strand of brown hair behind her delicate ears. "I'm okay!" she said brightly as a single drop of blood slowly trickled down her face.
Roughly, Yuki grabbed Kyo by the collar and dragged him over to Tohru. "Apologize. Now." He hissed, eyes flashing.
With much resentment Kyo mumbled an apology though his narrowed eyes were fixed angrily on Yuki.
Tohru flushed in embarrassment as she stuttered a reply. "Ah…Um…It's okay! I'm okay…so…uh…."
Yuki sighed and let go of his collar, letting Kyo fall to the ground. "Shall we go inside then Honda-san….Ah…I mean Torhu-san." He smiled running a hand through his silver hair.
She looked down at Kyo uncertainty. "Um…are you okay?"
His voice was muffled.
She smiled and held out her hand for him as he sat up. With a smile he took it. "Thanks."
"Anytime!" she spoke pulling him up.
"Mmm! I smell romance!" A booming voice commented.
"Shut up." Yuki snapped stepping up beside Shigure.
"Ah, what's this? Does my nose deceive me? I believe I smell some jealousy!"
"Shut up!" Yuki warned softly watching Kyo and Tohru. They were smiling and laughing…while he, Yuki simply watched from the background.
He wasn't going to stand for it any longer.
"Is she asleep?" Kyo asked turning down the T.V.
"Yes." Yuki replied tonelessly not bothering to look at Kyo when he entered the room.
"I need to talk to you…" he started sitting down next to Kyo.
Kyo looked away from the television looking surprised. "Huh?"
"You like her don't you?" Yuki said with a hint of disdain.
A silence met the both of them.
"I…I…" he muttered blushing furiously.
Yuki sighed. "I thought so."
"What's it to you anyway?" Kyo snapped trying to regain his composure.
"Don't you think it's about time we settle things?" his purple eyes glaring at the wall.
"What do you mean?"
"Stupid cat. You know what I mean," Yuki closed his eyes. "Whoever wins gets Tohru."
"A fight!" Kyo's face brightens.
"No. Whoever wins her love first gets Tohru."
Aaya (who just popped in.) laughed. "Of course you mean whoever gets to do her first wins!" he corrected them happily.
The two boys met each other's eyes.
"Done."
