A/N: Yay! My first chapter for a couple someone requested! I actually had alot of fun writing this, but I always think that writing is more fun when it's for someone else, because they you know at least one person is going to enjoy it. In this chapter, we actually have someone besides just Yuki and the couple. Just keep reading to find out who it is! :D I really think I gotta write a setting outside of the house soon...oh, and keep requests coming! :)

Couple: GakupoxRin

Dedicated To: iHeartPockiii

Yuki tried her best to silently shuffle through the halls as she furrowed her brow in concentration. She stared intently at the medicine bottle balancing on the tray she was carrying. At random intervals, she would also look at the glass of water and spoon on the tray to make sure nothing had happened to them. She was determined not to lose any of them and, as a result, prove to everyone how grown up she was.

After what felt like countless agonizing minutes of balancing and quiet footsteps, Yuki reached her destination. She stood at the end of the hall way that had all the girl's bedrooms. She gave a small smile of triumph on completing her balancing act.

She quickly walked down the remainder of the hall and stopped in front of Rin's room. She looked up at Luka who was standing next to Rin's room and acting as a bouncer to make sure that only people who needed to be there entered the room.

Luka looked down and gave a small smile at Yuki. Yuki kept concentrating on the medicine she was carrying to show the older girl just how responsible and grown up she was. Luka's smile spread slightly as she saw the determination in the young girl's eyes. She silently opened the door for her.

Yuki entered into the room and was instantly assaulted by the smell of sickness. She pulled a face, but quickly stifled it in order to continue with her job.

She walked over to Rin's bed, set down her tray on the nearby nightstand, and looked down at the sleeping blonde. Rin's cheeks were pink with sickness and a wet towel lay on her head.

"Rin," Yuki said in a cheery voice, "It's time for you to take your medicine!"

Rin opened her eyes and looked over at Yuki. Yuki gave a small smile as she silently produced Rin's medicine from behind her back.

"Do I have to?" Rin whined as she propped herself up on her pillow causing the towel to fell off her head, "That medicine tastes disgusting!"

"Miss. Luka says that you have to take your medicine or else you'll never get any better!"

"Speaking of Luka, wasn't she the one who was supposed to help take care of me?"

"Yup!" Yuki replied cheerfully as she began to try unscrewing the cap of Rin's medicine, "But I asked her if I could help take care of you."

Rin groaned as she flopped back down onto her pillow. She didn't like having Yuki wait on her. She was supposed to be the cool older sister, not the sickie stuck in bed!

As Rin continued to lie on her pillow, Yuki continued to struggle with the cap of Rin's medicine. Her cheeks grew red in frustration as she once again failed to remove the cap. She let out a frustrated sigh, knowing that she wouldn't be able to open it herself.

"Uhm…I'll be right back with your medicine," Yuki said as she headed for the door.

"Whatever!" Rin replied grumpily as she remembered the bitter taste of the medicine.

Yuki quickly opened the door to Rin's room and looked up at Luka who was still standing guard outside of the door, "Miss. Luka…I…kinda need help with something." She held up the un-open able bottle.

Luka gave Yuki a kind smile, "Come on, let's give Rin her medicine." Yuki gave a smile and a nod.

The two girls returned to the room and Luka gently took Rin's medicine bottle from Yuki's hands and easily opened it. She walked over to the bedside table and poured a small dose of medicine onto the spoon.

"It's time for your medicine Rin," Luka said as she turned toward the bed.

Rin rolled to look at her and made a face, "But Luka!..." she began in protest.

"No arguing," Luka said bluntly as she moved the spoon closer to Rin, "take your medicine or you'll never get better."

With no small amount of grumbling, Rin once again propped herself up on her pillows and took the spoon from Luka's hand. Rin plugged her nose and quickly popped the spoon into her mouth. She made a face of disgust as she quickly removed the spoon. Luka handed her the glass of water next to the bed and watched as Rin chugged it down.

"Bleh!" Rin said as she finished her drink.

"Stop complaining, it'll make you better," Luka said as she began to gather up all the supplies that Yuki had brought in, "Come on Yuki, let's let Rin get some sleep."

"Okay!" Yuki replied, happy that Rin had finally taken her medicine.

As the pair were leaving, Rin's voice came from the bed, "Hey Luka…can I have other people visit me?"

Luka turned back around and gave a small, knowing smile, "You mean like Gakupo?"

"N…No! Of course not him!" Rin replied hastily as she pulled the covers over her face to hide how deeply she was blushing.

"Well," Luka said as she continued to smile, "You know that no one can visit you right now. You're still sick and we don't want you spreading it around with a concert coming up so soon."

"Meh! But what about Yuki! You're letting her come in!" Rin replied from her haven under the covers.

"You know that Yuki isn't taking part in this concert. Plus she said she really wanted to help you. Now rest and get better before you have to sit out of the concert too," Luka replied as a means to end the conversation.

Yuki watched the exchange silently.

Rin wants to see Mr. Gakupo? She thought to herself.

The next day, Yuki volunteered to help take care of Rin again. She was once again concentrating on balancing something on a tray; this time it was soup.

She took a few more steps, all the time intently watching the soup, when she abruptly bumped into someone. She gave a small squeak of surprise as she watched the soup slosh perilously close to the sides of the bowl. She quickly looked up with a slightly annoyed look on her face to see the offender who had almost made her spill her soup.

"I'm sorry Yuki. I should have been watching where I was going. Is there any way I can help you to make it up to you?"

Yuki had bumped right into Gakupo. She had to hold in her giggles as she looked up at the older man. She couldn't help but think that he looked like a girl with his hair not in its typical ponytail.

"N, no it's okay Mr. Gakupo," Yuki said as her grin clearly showed her inner giggles, "I've got everything under control."

"Alright then," Gakupo said as he gave Yuki a smile, "I'll just be on my way then. And please tell Rin that I hope she feels better soon."

As Yuki watched Gakupo walk away she suddenly remembered something and was struck with a brilliant idea.

"Wait Mr. Gakupo! I actually think there is something you can help me with!"

"AH-CHOO!"

Rin's entire body shook as she sneezed once again.

"Ugh…" she moaned as she flopped back down on the bed and covered her head with her blankets, "This sucks! I hate being sick! And right before a big concert too! Ugh!"

Through her sniffling and fretting, Rin heard the distinctive sound of someone opening her door. She huddled down further under her covers in hopes of avoiding taking her medicine again.

"Is it Luka or Yuki?" She said to whoever was in the room, "Well, whichever of you it is, I don't want to take any more medicine! It tastes disgusting and I don't feel any better even after I took it all day yesterday!"

"It's not Luka or Yuki, and I didn't bring medicine for you; I brought soup."

Rin felt her heart beat faster and felt her face grow a deep shade of red. She knew that voice. It was Gakupo!

Just to make sure that her ears weren't playing sickness induced tricks on her, she slowly poked her eyes out above the covers. Sure enough, Gakupo stood holding a bowl of soup and smiling kindly down at her. Rin quickly pulled her eyes back under the covers.

"Come on Rin…" Gakupo said with a sigh, "You can't eat through the covers."

Rin slowly emerged from under the covers and was greeted by a warm smile from Gakupo. She felt her face flush an even darker shade of crimson.

Gakupo handed Rin the bowl of soup and Rin's heart beat spiked as her finger's lightly brushed against Gakupo's. She slowly began to feed herself the hot and soothing liquid.

A heavy silence prevailed in the room as Rin slowly ate her soup and Gakupo watched to make sure that she ate every drop. The silence grew to the point that Rin couldn't stand it any longer; she had to say something.

"So, how'd you manage to get past Luka? I thought she wasn't letting anyone in because they might get sick," Rin ventured in hopes of starting a conversation.

Gakupo gave a slight laugh and Rin's blush deepened. She loved how he laughed.

"Actually, Yuki helped me out with that. She was quite insistent that I come and see you. When I told her that perhaps you would rather sleep, she told me that I just had to see you. So she came up with this scheme about telling Luka that she had spilled the soup and needed help making more. It actually worked surprisingly well. But enough about me are you feeling any better Rin?"

Rin, who had been listening dazedly to the calming sound of Gakupo's voice, snapped back to attention.

"Huh?...Oh! Y-Yeah! I'm just fine now! Thank you very much for the soup!" Rin responded hastily as she practically shoved the soup bowl back at Gakupo.

A look of concern crossed Gakupo's face as he took the bowl from Rin, "Are you sure you're okay? Your face is bright red. Here, let me check your temperature…"

Gakupo set down the bowl and lightly placed the back of one of his hands on Rin's head as he placed his other hand on his own head. Rin's face flared red at his touch. The look of concern on Gakupo's face deepened.

"You're burning up Rin. I better leave you alone so you can get your sleep. Good night Rin, I hope you have pleasant dreams," Gakupo said as he stood up to leave.

"Gakupo wait!" Rin practically yelled as she grabbed the young man's hand to stop him from leaving, "Sorry!" she blurted out quickly as she pulled her hand away, "But, uhm, do you think that…you could stay for a bit? You know, just till I fall asleep!" Rin looked down at her covers, not willing to meet Gakupo's eyes.

Gakupo turned around and gave a warm smile as he returned and sat on the corner of Rin's bed.

"Of course Rin," He said kindly as he took Rin's hand, "I can stay as long as you'd like."

Outside of Rin's room, Luka leaned back against the wall and gave one of her characteristic knowing smiles.

"You're welcome," She said to the pair inside the room.
