Star's POV:

Liz and Patty called me about Kid missing from Soul's place. Shinigami even called me about whether or not I knew where Kid was. I got some of my clothes on and went to look for Kid on my own. From being friends for so long, I knew he like to take walks in the park when he was frustrated and he would imagine what could be changed to make it symmetrical. I was breathing hard when I arrived at one of the parks. I ran around looking for a dazed Kid and I heard the sobbing of someone. I ran towards the sobbing and found Kid curled up into a ball in the tree line.

"Kid, hey," I said. Kid quickly sat up and scooted away from me.

"Stay away from me! You broke up with Tsubaki and it is your fault she admitted her feelings to Soul and why I am heartbroken in this park!" Kid shouted. I reached out for him, but he smacked my hand away from him. "Do not touch me!"

"Kid, let's get you out of this park and to my place for the night and then you can go to loving me from a distance," I said. Kid froze in his terror and stared at me with shocked eyes. "Yea, I know how you have loved me from a distance for a long time. Now let me take you to my place to let you wash up."

"I cannot walk right now," Kid said. I saw Kid's were hurt from a fall from somewhere.

"I am going to have to carry you. How did you get the park?" I said. Kid held onto me as I pulled him onto my back and gave him a piggy back ride out of the tree line.

"I drove my car here and I can let you drive to your house," Kid said. He gave me the directions to his car and handed over his keys once I got him in the passenger seat. I pulled out my cellphone and called Liz to let her know I have Kid.

"You better not be taking him back to Soul's place! I will kick you ass if you take him back there!" Liz exclaimed.

"No, I am not taking him anywhere that place. I am taking back to my place to wash up and sleep just for tonight. Could you run by Soul's place to grab Kid's things?" I said. Kid stared out the window while we drove to my apartment.

"Sure thing, we should be at your place in an hour or so," Liz said before she hung up the phone. I pulled up into my apartment parking garage and parked in my extra parking space. Kid waited for me to go around the car to get him out and carry him up to my apartment.

"Sorry for the mess, I was not expecting any company today," I said as I opened the front door. Kid gasped to see that it was a mess, but an organized mess with certain items in certain piles. I put Kid on the couch that somehow always stayed clean no matter what. "Shall I start the shower for you or do you want me to walk you over and let you do it?"

"Both would be great," Kid muttered. I helped him walk to the bathroom and started the shower for Kid. "Thank you for doing this. Why are you doing this?"

"I am doing this as a friend and as a way for you to get over Soul and be with me," I muttered. Kid looked at me and he leaned towards my face as I was helping him with his shoes. I stared at Kid as he leaned in closer and kissed my lips gently.

"I love you," Kid said softly when he pulled back a little after our kiss. I finished taking his shoes off and left him to get the rest of his things off and get into the shower. I slid down the wall with my hand to my lips as I listened to the shower through the closed door.


Liz rang the doorbell while Kid was in the shower and I opened the door before Liz kicked the door down. I held out my hand for the bag in her hand, but she pushed her way through. Patty followed her into my apartment and they looked around for Kid. I grabbed the from Liz and took it to the bathroom. After I knocked the door and waited for permission to let me in, I put the bag on the sink.

"Liz and Patty brought your things here and I am going to put them on the sink counter," I said.

"Okay, thank you again," Kid said. I did not answer him, but stared at his silhouetted body in the shower for a few minutes. Kid lifted his hands over his head and the water hit his body that made me want to join him.

"You are welcome," I said as I left the bathroom in a hurry. Liz and Patty were cleaning up some of my piles when I returned to the living room. "What are you doing with my things now?"

"Ever time we come over, you never clean up this place and it is amazing that you have survived for this long," Liz said. I ran over to stop them from continuing any further than they had already gotten. The bathroom door opened and Kid emerged in nothing but a pair of shorts and a towel on his head. I froze when I saw his perfectly sculpted abs glisten with the beads of water form the shower.

"Hey Liz and Patty, thank you for bringing a few of my things. Does Soul know where I am at right now?" Kid asked. Liz smiled at me when she saw that I was drooling at Kid.

"No, he just thinks that you are still missing. We told him that we were grabbing your things in case you showed up at my place. Tsubaki is still there and is sorry for what happened," Liz said. Patty ran over to give Kid a big hug for some support and she cooed to Kid like he was a little boy.

"Good," Kid said as he put his hand on Patty's head. "Tomorrow I am going to back to Honorable Father's house until I can get a place of my own."

"Why don't you just crash with Black Star for the time being instead of going back to your dad's place. Soul will expect you to go back there tomorrow," Liz said.

"I do not mind you crashing here. The guest bedroom is rarely used and it is still clean," I said.

"Perfect, see you two tomorrow," Liz said as she grabbed Patty and dragged her out of my apartment. I led Kid to the spare bedroom and let him take a look around. I watched Kid marvel at everything and notice how parts of the room had perfect symmetry. Kid walked over to me with a smile on his face.

"Thank you for letting me stay here," Kid said. Unconsciously, I captured Kid's face in mine and gave him the same passionate kiss he gave to Soul earlier that day. Kid wrapped his arms around me as I carried him to the bed and threw him onto the bed. I kissed his neck and went down to his abs. Kid shivered as I ran my hands up and down his chest.
