This is the second chapter; it is just the same story only in Rabi's POV. So enjoy if you like the first chapter. I think I made Rabi a little OCC but its hard working with Rabi's POV! XP I don't own anything as I say in every chapter I have ever written.

Seeping Cold

XXX

I brushed a stray strand of red from my eye.

The cold wind gently caressed my cheeks I couldn't help but snuggle deeper into my scarf. I looked forward, all I could see was the continuous stretch of snow white land.

I quickly hurried my steps, in order to catch up with Yuu-chan who was walking quite fast despite the fact that we were striding through rather heavy snow.

Standing just behind him I could see a strange look on his face. His bangs covered his eyes, I couldn't tell what he was feeling but the way his pink lips were I knew something was bad.

His lips were curled into a smirk.

"You look scary, Yuu-chan." I commented without thinking as I saw that evil smirk on his usually emotionless face. I couldn't help but feel a shiver going down my spine.

Yuu-chan is only normal when his face is blank; something has to be wrong when there are any sign of emotions. And an evil smirk is not the best thing you can get from Yuu of all people alive.

"What do you mean, Rabi?" He looked at me as he began.

"I am perfectly happy…" He finished his sentence; his aura was rather dangerous if I must say.

I paused for a second, Yuu…happy? I think I winced at that thought.

"Yuu-chan, who is going to die this time?" I asked him with a raised eyebrow.

"No one in particular." He replied lightly. I think whoever that is going to get hurt is someone I know.

Lets just hope is not me, I really do cross my fingers with that thought. Yuu didn't say anymore, I didn't really expect him to say anything. This was Kanda Yuu we are talking about; he is the cold and stoic human being… if you can still call him that.

The silence was too quiet for me, and being Rabi I cannot stand it.

"Ahh… where are we?" I absentmindedly asked as I saw a puff of white air come from my mouth.

"Tch." He answered as he rubbed his arms up and down.

He must be cold. He is wearing only a dress shirt underneath that exorcist jacket.

"Cold, Yuu-chan?" I asked with the tilt of my head, asking the obvious was part of Rabi's job after all.

I was walking backwards as I crossed my arms behind my head. A little stretch of my bones feel a lot nicer after being crammed in a train for a day or so. I couldn't help but smile as I look at my childhood friend.

"Don't call me that." He wrinkled his nose as he said that.

"Same old, same old Yuu…" I couldn't help but comment as he still hates my nick name even after so many years of me using it. I gave a light chuckle.

The sun in the sky gave me a chance to actually see Yuu properly.

He looked very much like the time when we first met. His long ebony hair was swaying side by side, in step with his own. His icy blue eyes were no match to anyone else's; it was like staring into burning ice. His face would always be etched with a frown.

Yuu was such an exotic creature.

His attitude was so cold to everyone. Was it real or was it just pretend?

I mentally shrug at that. His behaviors were only for him to understand. Maybe he doesn't even know why he acts this way. As long as he is here to keep my life a reality, whatever he is I would never care, neither would I want to understand what was really going on inside Yuu's mind.

He puffed out a long drag of white as he sighed deeply.

It looked to me as if that was his soul that was slowly leaving his body.

"Yuuuuu…" I murmured lightly as I saw his glazed eyes. I stopped walking and stood quite close to him.

"Hmm?" He answered absentmindedly as he was still deep in thought.

Staring deeply into his icy blue eyes, I couldn't see anything. It was just like a wall of ice. He must be thinking too hard, I marveled lightly to myself.

Suddenly he made a quiet yelp as he visibly backed away from me. I think he just noticed me.

I tossed my head back and laughed. I can't believe I just caught Yuu off guard, he was actually surprise to see me so close.

"Yuu-chan is caught off guard." I said in a sing song voice as my lips curled into a grin.

"Shut up…" He gave me a glare as he shoved my shoulder lightly. My grin was still in place.

"Why is it so fucking cold…" I could hear him murmur lightly.

"Bad Yuu-chan, don't cuss so much…" I caught up with him as I slowly wagged a finger back and forth to emphasize my point.

He took a hold of my finger and brought it close to his mouth. He paused; I know he wouldn't do it. Come on this was Yuu-chan, no way would he do something like this.

Never ever, impossible.

He brought it closer to his parted lips, he was just scaring me.

I stared at him wide eyed as he really did clamp his teeth on to my finger. I gave a loud yelp in pain and surprise as he let go of me.

"YUU!" I stared at him as if he was crazy, holding my injured finger close to my chest.

"What?" He looked at me dully as he started to walk away.

His face was so blank; it was as if he never did anything of the sort!

I bet you he was smirking at me right now. How harsh, Yuu!

"Yuu-chan, that hurts!" I complained as I quickly caught up with him. I held up my gloved hands at him.

"You deserve it." He plainly said.

"For telling you to stop cussing so much?!" I asked him, my mind slowly rewinding to why he bit me.

He nodded as if it made perfect sense. I almost fell into the snow for that.

"But swearing is bad, Yuu-chan." I shook my head as I started to walk next to him.

"Whatever." He mumbled lightly, I could clearly hear what he said.

"Now, Yuu-chan." I began, a little plan forming in my head. "Do you know what you are supposed to do?"

"Am I supposed to?" He raised an eyebrow at me.

My lips curled into a wide grin.

"You have to kiss it of course! Any dummy would know that!" I exclaimed brightly.

He looked really dumbstruck at what I just said.

Let's see if the cold really was getting to Yuu's head.

I stood in front of him as I stuck out the finger he bit.

"No." He quickly answered as the idea slowly went through his head.

"Why not?" I pouted; I could feel my cheeks were getting red, a little warm too. I waved it off; it can't be a blush it has to just be the cold.

"Yuuuu…" I dragged his name.

"Kiss it. Kiss it. Kiss it all better." I said as a small smirk appeared on my lips.

"Tch." He said. That certain habit of his was getting to become too much.

"Yuu-chan…" I said again.

"Will you leave me alone if I kissed your finger?" He grumbled, I knew I would get to him.

I quickly nodded my head.

I saw him sigh deeply; another long drag of white air came from his parted lips.

He leaned down and planted a light kiss on my finger tip. It felt like as if a butterfly landed on my finger.

He pulled back as he said with a small frown. "Happy now?"

"Yuu, my finger feels a lot better…" My lips curled into a bright smile as I replied in a rather amused tone.

I really do think the cold has gotten to his head but I couldn't help but smile though.

"Let's go now." He roughly said as he took a hold of my arm and gently dragged me along.

"We wasted enough time." He commented dryly.

I chuckled lightly as my lips tilted upwards into a very satisfy grin.

The two of us walked like that for a few minutes before my role decided that it was time for me to break the silence.

It was Rabi's job to break the silence, that happy go lucky attitude wasn't just for display. I had to make it work right?

"Yuu-chan," I began, with his name as always.

He didn't answer, but I know he wouldn't bother to. It was my role to break the silence and it was his role to at least pretend he wasn't interested in what I was about to say. Things have been like that for as long as we have been together, it was just a silently mutual commitment the two of us share.

"Are you cold?" I asked him after a pause.

"No." He replied shortly.

"You're lying." I didn't even have to look at him to know he was lying; it doesn't take a lot to know when Kanda Yuu doesn't want you to be involved. I pouted at him, even though I know he wouldn't see it.

"I am fin—" He started but I decided to interrupt him before he turns into a freezing Popsicle. It may not be my business but as Rabi I will make it my own business if I have to, and that is what I will just do.

I leaned closer to him as I draped my long white scarf around both of our necks.

"You are cold." I insisted as I latched my arm with his as he was still holding on to my arm. Slowly I adjusted the scarf so we were both wrapped nicely with it.

He didn't move as he allowed me to do whatever I wanted.

I stopped fussing with the scarf once I was satisfied with the outcome.

"Warmer now?" I asked him as I buried my head into the crook of his neck.

"Whatever." He answered as he started to walk, tugging me along.

I inched my hand into his pocket, finding his fingers I laced mine's with his.

He didn't object, my mask smiled as it mirrored what I really felt inside.

A fire in the cold winter land.

Our bodies were warm against once another as we walked side by side, making our way to our mission's destination. Our life follows a different track; this was just a phase that both our tracks go through the same point. Our life was going to be very different from one another. This was just another moment where the two of us are lucky enough to come across each other.

We were merely passing by; we leave nothing behind as we take nothing away.

He was just another exorcist as I was just another Bookman apprentice.

Just like the cold, it will go as soon as spring comes.

I can't believe I was able to finish this in just an hour and a half! –Thumbs up- I am such a miracle worker! Hope you all like it; I am still opening this story as I am not sure whether I should do another chapter, this time in third person's view. But it may get kind of boring… Well review as I think about it!
