Yay, second chapter!!! By the way, I don't own SK, but I do own the redness of Horo's hair, so get your own colour! Enjoy!!


(Now on with the actual story, FYI Ren and Horo are living at Yoh's house, with pretty much everyone, but Ren and Horo are the only ones at the house right now) "Why should I?" demanded Ren, not wanting to let his fun be vanquished just because some (cute) punk told him to.

"Ren, I'm serious, stop this right no-" but the one name Horo was cut off, by a large amount of water running down his face rapidly.

"Ren Tao, stop this nonsense immediately!" Horo was getting pissed. He tried to punch his tormentor in the stomach, but Ren stepped just enough to the side to dodge it, without letting go of his Horohoro.

"Come on now Horo, you must be getting bored of that colour, it's so… jaded," answered Ren, choosing the perfect word for his sentence. Ren grabbed some shampoo, and rubbed it into Horo spiky hair, ignoring the protests coming from the relief of his boredom.

"Re-en," complained Horo, "I bet you've never even dyed anyone's hair before. You're gonna make it look like my brains are on the outside if my head."

"Now don't fret my little guinea-pig, I hardly ever make any mistakes, and how hard can dyeing someone's hair be. All you have to do is put disgusting water-like substance on it and let it sit for a while," said Ren confidently, rinsing off Horo's hair.

"If it's disgusting, then why the hell do you want to put it in my hair!?"

"Because I'm bored," answered Ren simply, as he opened the box of hair dye. He attempted to place a large glob of it on Horo's head, but because he needed two hands to open the box, he didn't have any left over to keep Horo from moving around and/or running away. The dye landed on the floor and started to flow everywhere.

"Shit!" yelled Ren and went to grab some paper towels to clean it up before it spread too much. Horo was too mystified by the amazing pattern that the dye made on the floor to run away while he had the chance. It looked like blood, and felt like blood, what if it was blood (the dye is red FYI)? Horo stared open mouthed at the dye stain while Ren came rushing back into the room.

"Horo, stop looking at the dye, and help me clean it up!" Ren ordered.

"But I can't, the bloo- I mean, the dye is so... red… so…" Horo muttered, mesmerized by the blood like dye.

"What's wrong with you Horo, the dye isn't scary… and you shouldn't react to it like that. I mean it the only thing scary about it is that it sort of looks like blood," Ren stated, while mopping up the dye.

Horo shuddered.

"Oh, I get it, hahaha, Horo; you're scared of blood aren't you?" Ren deducted.

Horo, who had finally snapped out of his hypnotism, attempted to defend himself "I am not, scared of blood," he lied.

"You are so, you're scared of blood. Well then I guess you won't be able to look at your hair once I've dyed it," said Ren playfully, while latching himself to Horo, so he couldn't get away.

"No!" screeched Horo, while trying to squirm away from Ren grasp. But Ren somehow managed to rub the dye into Horo's now red hair, without letting him get away.

"Man, now I look like I have ketchup in my hair!" groaned Horo.

"Aww, don't be so hard on yourself, I like it. It looks… cute, almost… sexy," Ren complimented. "And I do say, I did an excellent job dyeing it."

"Ren! Sexy!? Sorry, but I don't swing that way, you're disgusting! I can't believe a gay dyed my hair!!" Horo shied away from Ren, but they both knew Horo was just joking. The two had never actually admitted their love, but they both knew that the other had feelings for them. It was defiantly a love-hate relationship.

"Oh come on, and you're telling me that you've never had any interest in a guy?" Ren accused.

"Now I never said that, quit putting words in my mouth."

"So you're admitting you're gay? How hypocritical!" the pair then burst into laughter, and a few minutes later, they were leaning on each other, wheezing, and trying to regain their breath. It's not that their little argument had been super hilarious, but it just felt good to be with the other, and not have to worry about what was going on. Just being able to relax and have fun.

"You know what Horo?"

"What?"

"We should go somewhere, on a trip. Let's go to an onsen (a hot spring resort). Just us, it'll be fun."

"Well I don't see why not, sure, let's go to an onsen," Horo agreed.

(After arriving at the onsen) "What!? What do you mean that you gave us the same room! We aren't together… like that! What's wrong with you people!?" Horo said outraged and devastated, but what he didn't know, was the Ren had arranged it.

Ren laughed in his head "It's fine, we'll just take it," he said with a little smile on his face, but Horo was too astounded to notice. "Come on now Horo, we don't want to cause them any trouble. Let's just go to our room, and if we have time before supper, we can go in the hot spring," Ren told him, dragging Horo away by his arm.

"Ahh," sighed Ren, and easing himself into the hot relaxing water of the outside hot spring. "I'm glad I thought of this, I am an awesome person."

"Don't get too cocky, (hehe, I love that word… it reminds me of Edward from FMA because I have an icon of him grinning and it says 'Current Mood: Cocky, and it makes me laugh because Ed is defiantly cocky, and I love him squeezes her friend's Ed plushie) it will make you look like an egotistical freak (which Ren is, but I love him anyways too squeezes her friends Ren plushie)," Horo told him.

"It's none of your business if I'm an egotistical freak, that's my choice in life, and if you don't like it then I suggest you leave, or I will beat you with a stick (the whole 'stick' thing is from one of my Ikkaku icons, he's from Bleach)," Ren threatened.

"Wow, now I feel safe, you can't get mad at me for saying the truth," Horo said sarcastically.

Ren then splashed Horo with water, cause a full-scale water splashing battle! (I had one of those once, it was fun) After they were the colour of cooked lobster, the two friendly rivals dried themselves and but on their funny little bath robes, (those things make me laugh, hahaha!) and returned to their room.

Ren was in the middle of drinking a glass of milk, when Horo asked him 'the question'.

"Hey Ren,"

"Hmm?' Ren answered, as he couldn't talk because he was drinking.

"How are we gonna sleep, I mean, are we gonna share the same bed 'cause that would be really awkward (but oh so cute all at the same time… sigh), or is one of us gonna sleep on the floor?" Horo asked.

Ren, after swallowing, said "Hmm, you know what Horo, I really don't want to sleep on the floor tonight, but you can if you want. Even though it is sort of hard, I wouldn't recommend it, it might give you back and neck pains."

"Well I don't want to sleep on the floor either, but it's not my fault, and we don't let any of the others know about it, okay?" Horo proposed (what an appropriate word)

"Okay, sure. I don't really care," Ren answered, and as Horohoro left to go to bed, he didn't notice the smile on Ren's face as he turned to finish his milk.
