Chapter 1- Called Upon

Kyo sat in Akito's room waiting for him to return. He had requested that Kyo be in his room at noon, not before or after. Yet it was five minutes past noon, and Akito was still not in his room. Kyo heard sounds outside the door, and then muffled voices. Only catching a few words, Kyo assumed it was Kureno and Hatori, "but he's in..."

"I understand..." Silence, "no, fine."

"...I'll go and get him." Kyo could not tell who was who but he did hear one of them walk away right before he was startled by the door opening and Hatori walking in.

"Hello Kyo. This is the third day this week Akito has called upon you." Kyo just nodded. "Have done something to upset him?"

"Not that I'm aware of," Kyo spoke quietly.

"Okay then," Hatori, unsure of what to make of the situation, got up, opened the door and looked down the hallway. Turning his head back towards Kyo, Kureno appeared at the doorway with Akito. Kyo looked up and saw Akito walking toward him.

"Leave us," Akito called to the two older men. They obeyed and once he was sure that they were gone, he sat down in front of Kyo.

"Akito-san, they are starting to become suspicious." Kyo looked up from his fiddling hands.

"I realize this. Do you not want to see me, everything that we have been through together?" Akito snapped back.

Kyo began to think about the things that had brought them together…

When Kyo and Yuki were little they did not get along. Haru and Kagura seemed to be his only friends. One day when Haru and Kyo were playing in the courtyard on the Sohma's main property. Haru had to go to the bathroom, promising he knew where it was Kyo let him go by himself. Two hours passed and Haru had not returned. Kyo decided that he had waited long enough and he should go look for the little cow. Kyo searched everywhere for him, asking every Sohma he found. During his hunt, Kyo came across a little girl arguing with her mother. But before Kyo could interrupt and ask if they had seen Haru the furious mother stormed off. So Kyo confronted the little girl.

"Excuse me miss," she looked like she was ready to kill him.

"Do I look like a girl to you?" She yelled

"Y-yes ma'am," Kyo stuttered.

"Ugh!" She screamed and then turned around to walk the opposite way of her mother...

That was really their first encounter.

"What if you went to school?" Kyo looked at him.

"Well that just has disaster written all over it."

"We will think of something, I promise. But for now you need your rest." Kyo stood up, and lifted Akito into his arms. Resting him on his bed, "sleep well my goddess," then Kyo headed to the door to go home.
