…

The light was bright. Too bright, almost unnatural. Kyo opened his eyes onto the surrounding world. First he realized that he was A) back at Hatori's house and B) surrounded by not only Tohru and Hatori, but practically the rest of the ex-zodiac as well.

Crap.

What happened again?

"Kyo-kun…" Tohru started quietly, "are you okay?"

"Wha…"

"You passed out on your way back to the main house. Again," stated Hatori.

Kyo looked towards his left and saw Shigure and Ayame, trying really hard to contain the giggles they had since it was his second time fainting today.

He could hear their words, taunting him later this evening:

'Oh, how manly Kyonkitchi is, fainting like an ill-hearted girl!'

'Indeed, perhaps the sun was too harsh for him or the wind was too scary, and he couldn't help it!"

'Ho ho ho ho…'

"Ha ha ha!"

Kyo woke up from his little daydream, to see Tohru trying to hold back her laughs.

"I'm sorry Kyo-kun, it's just, the expression on your face! It's (laugh) so (laugh) funny!"

"Like how people would react to Excalibur."

"Haru, that doesn't make any sense…" said Yuki.

Haru shrugged. "Apparently, you guys haven't seen Soul Eater."

"What?"

"Never mind."

"…"

"So..." started Tohru, trying to wake up the awkward silence, "shall we head back, Kyo-kun?"

"Uh, sure?" Kyo felt too lightheaded to protest, and before he knew it, he was walking down the same dirt path back to the main house.

Suddenly, he had a strange feeling of déjà vu. Didn't he just go down this way? And the others said that he had passed out again. What was wrong with him?

He tried to remember what they were talking about, but his jumbled brain seemed a mess. Wait…the mall that Tohru had gone to! Yes, that was it. But he didn't see anything wrong with a mall.

So he really was a sissy who passed out when the sun was too bright!

"Kyo-kun?" Tohru looked at him, frowning slightly. She looked a bit worried.

'Of course, she would, I look like I'm going to pass out again…'

"We're here!"

Kyo looked up. They were standing at some random door inside the main house.

"Where's here?" asked Kyo.

"Our room."

Our room. OUR room?

"Wait, we're sharing a room?!"

"Yep! Ayame-san and Shigure-san said that they got us a special room! Just for us! I feel so blessed!"

Tohru was then all smiley and spaced out a bit, no doubt thinking about her kind friends. But while Tohru is all too trusting and gullible, Kyo is the otherwise, especially around his messed up family.

And especially around both Ayame AND Shigure.

Kyo opened up the door carefully. Which of course meant that he kicked it open like it owed him money.

"Um, Kyo-kun…"

"Sorry, making sure that nothing was wrong with the door."

"…Oh…Like how?"

"…" "I don't know, but you said Ayame and Shigure! They had to have done something perverted or messed up or…"

Tohru flipped on the light switch, revealing lots of red and pink. The walls, the mini-fridge, EVERYWHERE there was some sort of shade of red.

That was, except for the huge white bed in the middle of the room, which stood out like a cosplayer in Wal-Mart.

Also, as an additional "plus" when Tohru tried on a second light switch, cheesy romantic music came on and the lights dimmed dramatically.

"Shit."

"See, Kyo-kun! There's nothing wrong with the room! It's even furnished like a King's palace!"

With a big smile on her face, Tohru started to settle in and inspect all the little details. Indeed, Shigure and Ayame had outdone themselves.

Kyo could only stand in the doorway, frozen and gaping at the obvious, almost lame attempts to make the atmosphere romantic.

On the bed, he saw a champagne bottle and two envelopes. Curiosity got the ex-cat, and he eventually went into the room to see what that was about.

On closer inspection, he saw that one was addressed to him and the other to Tohru.

"Tohru? I think this one's for you…"

"What is it?" Tohru walked over and grabbed the envelope, and started to open it.

Kyo looked at his own in his hand. He ripped the envelope open, and took a single piece of card out.

'Since it seems that Kyonkitchi is too big of a scaredy-cat to make his move on his own, we set up this little room for you two! Also, the room is a couple of corridors away from everyone else, so we don't have to hear your cries of love!

Have fun 3

-Gure and Aya'

His face heated up again, half from the embarrassment of the entire situation, and half because he was going to seriously hurt them later.

"Um Kyo-kun, I hate to interrupt, but what's this?"

Tohru held up a little square package of foil in her hand.

"AGH! Where'd you get that?!"

"It came along with a note that said to 'use protection'."

Yes, he would definitely kill his two cousins later.

But for now, all he could do was grab it from her hand and run over to the bathroom, blushing, and making up some excuse about needing to take a shower.

'A very, very cold shower.'

…

Later on, everyone had gathered around the table and finally ate the meal that was prepared by the servants and Tohru, who insisted that she may help. No one complained, since her dishes outrivaled even the head cook's ones.

Afterwards, they all had a toast to celebrate the old and new year. Everyone was given a color coded champagne glass, since they were a huge family after all, and nobody felt like getting each other's germs.

Shigure handed out a red tinted glass to Kyo. He looked at the gold liquid and scowled.

"Oh come on, Kyonkitchi! It's just a New Year's toast, but you have to finish it in one gulp."

Kyo sighed. He never really cared for the taste of alcohol, but…

He watched out of the corner of his eye when Tohru got her drink handed to her by Hatori. He also noticed that the doctor had on purpose placed only a third of a glass of champagne for her. Kyo silently thanked him.

"10, 9, 8…"

The entire family started the New Year countdown.

"7, 6, 5, 4…"

Another year with Tohru. Kyo smiled a bit.

"3, 2…"

Another year not having doing 'it' with Tohru.

Wait, what?

"1!"

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone then proceeded to clink their glasses with one another, and down them quickly. Kyo, utterly confused with his messed up thoughts a moment ago, drank the bitter liquid down quickly.

After he was done, he felt better. That was until he caught Shigure snickering on the side at him.

"What do you want?"

"Oh nothing, nothing at all! It just seems that you didn't notice anything…different about your drink, Kyo."

Anything…DIFFERENT?

"YOU SPIKED MY DRINK?"

"Well now, we should use our inside voices now, Kyonkitchi."

"You still spiked my drink, Shigure!"

"Calm down, it was only a little bit of extra alcohol."

"…How much extra?"

"Half a glass."

POW!

Kyo hit Shigure and practically ran out of the dining room and back to the living quarters. He had once read that alcohol took about ten minutes to take its effect, and their was no way in living hell that Tohru was going to see him wasted like that. So he had an excellent plan: lock himself in the bathroom and wait until the morning.

That should work, right?

…

A/N: Yay! A second chapter!

Sorry I took so long, but I've been wrapped up in the Holidays and stuff…

Anyways, thanks for all of your reviews! They make me so happy!

It was originally supposed to be a one-shot but now…I think I'll do only about three chapters. Is there such a thing as a three-shot?

Reviews bring me closer to writing the part where Kyo gets wasted! And reviewers can also get some imaginary hot cocoa to wash down the imaginary cookies. ^^
