Hi! How are you? Bet you were surprised that I updated two chapters in one day! Well, don't get too elated. I'm not only doing it for the ones who love the story, but because school starts in two days! I won't be very active, so I did you a favor!


Yuki was still puzzled. He was doing his daily routine of thinking about his problem as soon as he got up.

For today, he thought about his brother and Momiji being the ones for today, seeing as he skipped yesterday. He had to get his brother out of the way so he can put it behind him.

So that left Hatori, Shigure, and Kyo. He sure as hell wasn't going to do that to Shigure, after the crap he'd gotten him in. Hatori would probably be mature about it, but…

Kyo tackled him from behind, as part of HIS daily routine. "Good morning, Prince!" Yuki twitched. "You sound like a fan girl."

Then there was him. He honestly needed to think about that, even though he was sure he wouldn't mind. Then he thought to last night.

'You should smile more often. It makes you look much…what's the word I'm looking for?'

'Nicer?'

'More of…cuter.'

That added to the fact that he wouldn't mind. But it was taken away as soon as he thought back again.

'Hope you didn't think I meant something by it.'

Yep. It was official. He despised Shigure now. If he didn't already.

Kyo gently blew in his ear. Yuki shivered and darted away, almost falling off the bed. "Don't you ever do that again!" Kyo couldn't help but laugh.

Yuki rubbed his ear. "You love toying with me, don't you?" Kyo grinned. "That's what friends do."

Yuki laid back down as he ruffled his hair. "I must not know the meaning of friendship."

Kyo smirked. "Maybe, maybe not."

Yuki raised his hand. "That reminds me."

Kyo looked at him. "What?"

Yuki pushed him headfirst into the floor. "Get off of my bed."

Kyo put his feet on Yuki's bed and did something that resembled a pushup to get back up. He sat the way he had before he had been pushed. "Didn't work this time, Yuki. Although I still hit my head. Ow…"

Yuki sat up. "Why are so intent on being near me?" Kyo shrugged. "Beats me. Maybe because…forget it, it was a strange thought."

Yuki couldn't possibly think of what he wanted to say. But he decided not to bother. But Yuki was getting irritated, so he tried to kick Kyo off the bed, only managing to move his legs to the floor.

Kyo blinked. "How come you don't want me near you? It's been 3 and a half days, technically, so you can't completely hate me still, can you?"

Yuki glared. "You have no idea what I'm capable of, Kyo. I could hate you more for all you know, which isn't very much to begin with."

Kyo growled. "You're taking advantage of my memory loss and kindness by insulting me and calling me stupid. It isn't easy to handle. I can only go on for so long."

Yuki growled back. "I'm not taking advantage of you. I wouldn't do that to anyone, especially you."

Kyo glared softly. "You're saying that like I mean something to you."

Yuki looked away. "You do. You're my cousin…and my friend."

Kyo's eyes sparkled with a new light. "You mean it? I'm your friend?"

Before Yuki could respond, Kyo tackled him, knocking both of them to the floor. They somehow both managed to hit their heads.

Kyo did as he had previously, helping Yuki up as well. Once Yuki was accounted for, he stood up and walked towards the door. "I'm going to visit my friend again, Yuki. See ya soon!"

Yuki stood up as well, this time well aware of following him.


When Yuki finally got to their room, which was two yards away, he listened on the door. He heard Kyo say something about a bowl of something that started with a P.

He decided to open the door only to see Kyo doing a dance and jumping walk mix with a blue bowl of nuts on his head. He started singing.

"Look at me, I'm a kitty cat! I have a bowl of peanuts…for a hat!" He paused as he started munching on one. "If I eat them all, I will get fat. And blah, blah, blah I'm a kitty cat!"

Momiji was laughing and clapping, as was Tohru, and Yuki couldn't help but chuckle. Kyo bowed and caught the falling bowl of peanuts. "Thank you!"

Yuki chuckled again. "No more American-grade cartoons for you, Kyo." Kyo pouted and slumped over. "Aww, you're no fair!"

Momiji tilted his head. "Hey Yuki, is there something about Kyo that brings you here?" Yuki tilted his head as well. "Huh?"

Momiji smiled. "I mean, think about it. Every time Kyo comes, one way or another, you end up here too."

Yuki blinked. Now that he mentioned it, he did come in whenever Kyo did. Momiji then brought up something Yuki did not want to hear. "Are we going to play the game now, Yuki?" Yuki twitched, but then he smirked. "Sure. Everyone, put your hands over your eyes and close them." The other three proceeded to do so. When Yuki got to Momiji, he kissed his left hand.

Momiji couldn't help but giggle. Yuki stared at him with his usual bored look. "That answer your question?" Momiji nodded as they all uncovered and opened their eyes.

Kyo jumped up. "What'd you do? I'm curious!" Yuki glared at him. "Curiosity killed the cat. No pun intended." Kyo nodded with understanding. "Fine, then. I won't ask."

Yuki stood straight and sat on the empty bed. Tohru looked at him. "What are you doing?" Yuki smiled as Momiji joined him. "Staring out the window." Momiji's eyes sparkled with joy. "The snow looks so nice!" Yuki smiled warmly. "Yeah, it does."

Tohru went over to join. "The snow is calming to look at." Kyo felt sort of out of place and turned to leave. Before he grabbed the doorknob, Yuki called out to him calmly. "Kyo, where are you going? This is a friendly moment. Come watch with us."

This would be one of those moments where Kyo would usually give Yuki a tackling hug. But this moment benefited everyone, and he wasn't about to ruin it with his hyperactive attitude.

He walked over to them and sat behind Yuki. Yuki put his hands behind him to grab Kyo's wrist. When he did, he pulled Kyo to his knees and draped his arms over his shoulders. Kyo blinked and blushed lightly. "You're letting me do that willingly?"

Yuki nodded as he turned to him and smiled warmly. "I guess I can. Just this once." Kyo smiled. "Then I don't want this to end."

Momiji smiled warmly. "I love this. Just as friends should be." The other three nodded.


An hour and a half had past from just staring at the scenery, but to Yuki, it only seemed like 15 minutes. It was starting to darken outside, and he still hadn't taken action about his brother.

He was dreading this. Besides Kyo and Shigure, Ayame was the worst person to be a part of this bet. Bt he had to do it sooner or later, so he chose sooner.

Yuki knocked on the door, only to be greeted by…Hatori? "Hatori, what are you doing here?" Hatori nodded as he pulled at least half a deck of cards from his pocket. "We were playing a friendly game of cards. More specifically, I Declare War. Shigure is wallowing in the corner because he was first to lose. Ayame is over there lounging."

Yuki nodded. Hatori sounded less serious than usual, though. "So what's troubling you, Yuki?" Yuki sighed heavily and looked away. "I, unfortunately, came to see Ayame."

Ayame immediately darted up on his bed. "Excuse me?" Yuki glared. "I said, you stupid snake, I'm here to see you." Ayame sped over and hugged his little brother. "Oh, Yuki, you really came to see me!"

Yuki pushed him away. "Don't get any ideas, Ayame. It's just pertaining to the bet."

Ayame loosened his hold slightly. "Yuki, you meanie!"

Yuki slid out and grabbed his hand. "Just…just shut up, Ayame."

Ayame whined. "My dearest brother, you are so mean to me!" Yuki sighed and kissed his hand. Ayame blushed ever so slightly. "Yet you make me feel so elegant and exhilarated!" Yuki sweat dropped. "You are some type of dimwit." Ayame whined and went back in his room, dragging Yuki with him.

Ayame cupped Yuki's ear with his hands and whispered. "Why don't you go over and cheer up Shigure up with your part of the bet?"

Yuki pondered for a second. He did want to get twisted man out of the way. He nodded and walked over to Shigure. He poked him. "Shigure, you okay?" Shigure whined. "No. Go away."

Yuki sweat dropped. Shigure was worse than Kyo when he pouted. Yuki sighed and kissed his cheek, making Shigure's ear start to twitch. "Now I have you out of the way. All that's left are Hatori and Kyo."

Shigure and Ayame swooned and Hatori shifted at the mention of his name. "Ooh, just 'Tori and Kyon? Who do you plan to make your last?"

Yuki looked to the side. "That's undecided."

Shigure chuckled. "I'm pretty confident as to who. Aren't you, Aya?" Ayame chuckled. "Certainly, my dear friend."

Yuki turned to leave. "I'm going. Decide on this if you want to." But Yuki himself wanted to know whom he would make his last.

Yes, I did you a favor. So do me a favor and review! I know if you're a real fan of this pairing, you want to see their little 'scene'. I do too! Well, see you around!

Oh and on a side note, I really need to not watch Billy and Mandy XD
