Snuggle
Cat/Rat
yaoi.
Kyo sat in the snow, shivvering, teeth clattering.
He hated the cold. It was always so... ugh, so cold!
Now honestly, this wasn't the only cold he felt. This was the first night he had ever spent not knowing that that damned Rat was a few feet away in another room. No, now he was completely alone, cold inside and out, stranded out in the woods of Shigure's property, with the curse broken, so he couldn't turn all furry and warm.
Nope, he had to sit in the damned fuckin' cold!
Fuckin' rat.
Now, like everything else, he blamed this on the rat... even if he techinically wasn't a rat anymore, he still acted like it. He blamed his heart-sinking empty feeling that made his teeth chatter. He blamed him for making him so emotional that he couldn't think straight. So hard he couldn't think straight. Why did something so fragile and small have to be such a large turn-on? He blamed the rat for making him lose his temper again, which actually was the rat's fault, that he had run outside and gotten himself lost.
The only thing he didn't blame on the rat, he blamed on Hatsuharu. For that, he blamed the bumbling idiot for his horrible directional skills.
Because he had no idea where he was, and he was also to cold, to go out looking for Shigure's house.
Awe shit, Kyo thought as he watched the sun set behind the purple and blue clouds. Now it would be colder and dark. He shivered harder just at the thought.
Eventually, in the pitch black night, Kyo felt the cold crawling over his skin and taking over. He leaned against the tree he had taken shelter under to hide him from the worst of the snow, feeling his eyes droop.
He didn't know if it was exaughstion, or something else along those lines, but orange flickering lights...
Like moving lanterns and flashlights...
Flickered beneath his eyelashes...
He heard...
Something...
A shout...
Everything went black as he fell unconcious.

When Kyo awoke he felt warm arms around him, bandages all over his arms, chest, back and legs and neck, and his right ear, and a blanket over his body, tucked close around his body, which he could feel another, lean body through, and shorts were the only thing he wore. The probability that he most likely had frost bite didn't bother him as much as the fact that someone was snuggled against him, their breath hitting his cheek. And even though he was cacooned in blankets, despite the fact that he was still shivering slightly, all he was wearing was a pair of boxers.
Moving slowly so as not to wake the other person, he moved his face to whoevers was pressed against his neck and saw snowy, silvery hair that only belonged to one person he knew.
Yuki.
The rat.
Kyo felt his breath hitch and his heartrate speed. His shivering increased until his teeth were chattering and sweat dripped down his back. He was numbed to the pain in his body as he stared at that face, a sense of... possession. obsession. It swelled up in his chest, flooding his body like fire and ice swarming through his blood and racing eachother.
Yuki groaned and opened his eyes, pulling his head back.
"R-rat... what are... you... doing?" Kyo gasped out, trying to keep his voice even but failing.
"Snuggling," the boy replied simply, smiling. "Hatori said to keep you warm. I improvised."
Kyo smiled. He brought Yuki back down to him, and without a word, curled up like a kitten in the rats lanky, warm arms.
