Akira sighed as he felt Kyos aura close to him. 'When will I ever come close enough to fight you, and prove that only you are stronger than me?' He turned his concentration on the person sitting next to him, as they both leaned towards a thick tree.

Akira felt his heart ache. 'Even though I want to become Kyos equal, the one my heart truly longes for...'

His thoughts drifted off to the distance, and he lost focus on the world around him, as he thought about Hotaru. 'I guess I must both thank and at the same time blame Kyo for letting me meet Hotaru. If it weren't for him... I would never have met Hotaru, and I would never have fallen in love with him either.' He sighed deeply. 'We're so close, yet so far apart... I know him, and when we're alone, I've hinted my feelings, but... being the airhead that he is, he don't seem to notice.'

Akira shifted unconciously, brushing his left elbow towards Hotarus right. "Ah-"

Hotaru turned his gaze towards the younger boy, saying flatly; "You're blushing."

Akira slapped his hands over his cheeks, abruptly standing up.

"Um- um- I- gotta do something!" He rushed away, hitting his cheeks several times, willing the blush to go away. "Baka, baka, baka, Baka!"

Hotaru blinked. "What's up with Akira?"
