This is the revised and edited version! The other version was HORRIBLE! Special thanks to animelvr23 for this chapter!
ENJOY!
Yuki's POV
I was tired, sleepy, and stressed, but I had no clue as to why I was actually watching t.v. for once. Maybe a moment of relaxation before I got preoccupied with anything else. I paused and I listened as the cat walked into the living room and picked up the remote.
"I was watching something you know?" I said calmly, still staring at the television as he flipped through the channels.
"Oh well, dumb rat."
Sigh, always with the dumb names. He was sitting on the floor while I occupied the couch. I stared at his hair. It was such a bright orange, it seemed to lighten up the whole room. It looks good on hi...woah woah woah, wait what am I saying here? I don't like my cousin! Eww no…well, mayb—
"What the hell you staring at?" I snapped out of my thoughts. I realized I must've been staring at him.
"Nothing, just marveling at how abnormal you and your stupid hair are."
He turned red "DAMN RAT! SHUT THE HELL UP!"
He quickly got up and started swinging his arms at me attempting to land a hit. I dodged them easily. Silly kitten, I decide to tease him a little.
"You know, you should aim or at least think about where the hell you're throwing your arms." I said calmly.
"SHUT UP!" he continued to swing his arms. I guess it was time to end this. I dodged a left hook and kneed him in the gut. He fell to the ground breaking something with his fall. I stared at him, then behind him. He broke the remote. Ugh damn, now I have to hear grief from Shigure about why we are so set on breaking his home.
"Good job. Now neither of us can watch TV," I said with annoyance detectable in my voice.
"Shut the hell up ya damn rat!" he yelled as he did a quick movement with his legs and tripped me.
"Fuck!" I said while I began tumbling to the ground. Damn Cat caught me off guard...
Kyo's POV
I felt the rising and falling of his chest on mine, his head buried in the crook of my neck from the fall. He was really light, well duh; he looked so damn skinny and fragile, no wonder. I stared down at his beautiful gray hair in a mess and then he looked up at me. His amethyst eyes were so beautiful. Like jewels…
"Kyo…"
"Yuki…"
"I heard a bang what hap...whoa!"
Shigure stood right outside his study and was now looking down at us. His eyes were wide and his look was telling us that he was very, very confused.
"What happened?" he questioned.
Yuki quickly shifted his body weight and got up and walked out the room without saying a word. What the hell? Odd enough behavior. I ignored it and stood up to stare at Shigure.
"We fought and I tripped him and he fell on top of me," I stated while trying to fix myself
"Really? Kyo finally landed a hit on Yuki!" he said with excited sarcasm. Damn asshole.
I picked up the broken remote from the floor and threw it at Shigure's head.
I smirked as I heard an "Oww", and then a "NOOO MY POOR REMOTE!", as I walked out the room and headed up stairs.
I walked into my room and laid down on my bed thinking about what had just happened...how I was thinking of Yuki in such a different way...
What the hell is wrong with you Kyo?, part of my brain said. I wish I knew. I don't even know what just happened. My mind played the event back over and over until my head started hurting and I decided to leave it alone for now. I headed towards the bathroom to take a shower before I went to sleep.
Yuki's POV
What the hell just happened? Did we have a moment or something? Why did I just say his name like that…What is wrong with me? Why was I thinking about Kyo, the Cat, my COUSIN, like that? I must be coming down with a fever or something.
Before I had time to dwell any more on the subject, I heard someone outside in the hallway quickly make their way to the bathroom, then I heard the shower water running.
Probably Kyo, I thought. Tohru is probably cleaning the dishes from dinner and Shigure's most likely locked up in his study. I got up and walked towards my closest. I grabbed a pair of sweats and a plain black t-shirt. I guess I'd have to wait 'til Kyo was done.
I took this time to attempt to unravel my thoughts about the situation that just happened. Was I blowing this out of proportion? Or was it seriously something I should have been giving a lot of thought to? Ugh, I didn't like being confused about this. We were sworn enemies weren't we? The Cat and the Rat, bound to hate each other for life. I hate him...I hate him...I kept repeating the sentence over and over again in my head but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make myself believe I actually hated him. After about 10 minutes I heard the shower turn off. I quickly headed over to my bedroom door and opened it. I shut my door behind and began my way towards the bathroom. I must have still been thinking about the situation, and it must have been clouding my mind, body, and everything else, because for the second time tonight, I ran into something and toppled over.
I felt the weight of someone on me. I stared towards my chest to see bright, wet orange hair. Kyo. Again? the second time in less than what an hour? He looks even more beautiful after a show—SNAP OUT OF IT YUKI!
He looked up and saw who he ran into. I saw a tint of pink in his cheeks, and then he shifted his weight and got up.
"Watch where you're going you dumb rat." he said while walking down the hallway towards his room, not even putting much effort into the insult.
What the hell? I got up off the floor slowly and made my way to the bathroom. I undressed without paying attention to what was actually going on, my mind on a new situation. What the hell was wrong with me? What am I thinking? Why am I having these thoughts?
I stepped into the shower after making sure the water was very warm. I began shampooing my hair, taking it slow. I stepped back under the water and allowed the shampoo to fall over my eyes, not bothering to do anything about it. I needed to clear my mind. I didn't need this. I didn't even know what this was. What was going on? I then began washing the rest of my body. Scrubbing hard, attempting to wash my worries away, as if it'd actually work.
I stepped out of the shower when I was finally done. I dried my small, delicate body off with a towel and began putting on my sweats and t-shirt.
I gave up on the situation for tonight, all I wanted to do was go to sleep peacefully...
I know it's still not that great, but if I could I'd combine chapters 1 & 2 but that'd be to troublesome and I would have to re-do all the chapters, maybe I'll do it when I'm finally done with this story
xD
Reviews please! I love criticism and input!
