I would have to give credit to one of my reviewer who helped me through my writers block with a splendid idea. Gives that person a Hi-Five You know who you are… don't be shy… LMAO! But yeah, thanks a bunch. I did twist it a bit, I think
Chapter 8: Kyo Dares Yuki
"I dare you… to tell Ayame that you forgive him and promise you'll visit him every Saturday, so he can… SHUT THE HELL UP WITH THAT DAMN SONG!" Ayame stopped singing his little song and looked at Kyo then at Yuki.
"Well… Yuki…?" Ayame looked as if he was going to shout for joy, the expression on his face was priceless.
Yuki just stared a Kyo, who had a Smug look slapped on his face. Kyo knew that it would eat Yuki up from the inside out to do this, and he was somewhat pleased with that, but overall it had to be done. Kyo knew that Yuki didn't hate his brother as much as portrayed.

(Flash Back)
"Ayame… I can't come to your store today. I, uh… Miss Honda needs help with her homework because she has a make up exam tomorrow…"
Kyo was lying on the floor looking outside through an open door. He was watching a small bird that was hopping along tweeting at soothing song.
"Ayame… I told you… Miss Honda needs my help for a makeup exam."
Yuki paced back and forth past the room Kyo was in, a little frustrated now. Kyo heard Yuki, and withdrew his attention from the cheerful chirps of the little bird and turned it towards the pacing Yuki.
"Ayame… would you please listen… Ayame!" Yuki let out an extremely frustrated "Grrr!" and hung up the phone.
Kyo had heard the phone slam down and Yuki talking to himself in frustration.
"How can I even try to understand him when that idiot doesn't even listen to me…? I don't hate Ayame… I want to forgive him, really I do, but he makes it so hard sometimes to even say two words to him. And going to see him… if he keeps hugging me the way he does, I'll have an asthma attack… again. I know he means well and I know he's trying to make things right but he just doesn't seem to understand that telling me (ordering I should say) to do something won't help any…"
"So why don't you just tell him that, ya damn rat"
Yuki jumped slightly and looked behind him. Kyo standing in the doorway, his shoulder rested against one side of the doorway.
"How long were you standing there?"
"Long enough to know that you need a serious talk with Ayame"
"That just it… he can't be serious long enough for us to even talk."
"Then make him."
"You know I can't make him do anything, he doesn't listen to anyone except Hatori."
"Yeah, well… you're screwed then" Kyo turned to leave
"Kyo…?"
"What the hell do you want?"
"Thanks" Yuki gave a small smile
"Yeah, Whatever…" Kyo smirked slightly as he left.
(End of flask back)
This was another one of those times Yuki and Kyo were home together by themselves. Tohru was out with Kisa, Hiro, and Momiji, and Shigure was somewhere torturing Mii. (he he he… they were a little nicer to each other this time)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yuki looked at Kyo with a 'how could you' face and Kyo challenged back with a 'Yeah, I did it' face.
"Hey Yuki, the rules are you must do the dare or ELSE!" Shigure said with a devious grin while Momiji nodding his head in agreement.
"I… I" Yuki stammered and looked at the other four who were obviously siding with Kyo on this one. Haru would've probably been the fifth but he was still knocked out.
"Yeah Yuki you can do it!" Momiji was trying his best to root Yuki on; he even had pom-poms that he confiscated from a Prince Yuki fan club girl about a week ago. (Momiji was playing cops and robbers with some of his classmates again and he was the robber)
"Umm… Yuki, go ahead it will make you feel a lot better" Tohru smiled. Hatori just nodded without any words.
"DO IT ALREADY YOU DAMN RAT!" Kyo shouted losing his patience.
Ayame just looked at his younger brother, waiting for what he wanted most.
Yuki took a deep breath. "Ayame I don't hate you… yes, you can be rather eccentric at times… and bossy… and overwhelming, but the way you that you look up to Hatori with some much admiration, is what I admire about you…"
"OH YUKI I --"
"Ayame, please, I'm not done." Yuki put his index finger on his brother lips.
"I also want to say that I forgive you… I can see that you are trying to make up for your 'mistakes', (Yuki always called them 'mistakes' because 'rejecting me' was to hard to say) but I have been making it harder on the both of us. I'm sorry; I guess wanted you to suffer like I did. It was selfish of me and I am really and truly sorry." Yuki broke down and a tear fell from his eyes. He sat hunched over now, trying to hide his tears in is hands.
There was a brief pause, every one fell silent, shocked to see a tear fall from Yuki's eye.
"Yuki… don't, don't cry… I have already forgiven you… I was just hoping that you'd promise to come visit me every Saturday…" Ayame said waving a hand
"WHAT! And you just sat here and made me humiliate myself in front of that stupid cat. Why didn't you say anything?"
"I tried to but you shushed me."
Yuki's tears had been replaced with a bright glow of red all over his face. Yuki was embarrassed. Kyo fell out laughing. He was laughing so hard his cheeks and stomach begin to hurt.
Tohru had never seen Kyo laugh like that, she was a little shocked that he would laugh at such a fragile matter but surprisingly, she was happy that he was laughing.
"Umm… so, will you come to visit every Saturday, Yuki?" Yuki watched Kyo for a moment thinking about how he wanted to kill him, then he looked at Ayame.
"Of course I will, but on one condition…"
"Yes… of course… what is it?
"Please don't hug me so tight… I do have asthma. Okay?" Yuki smiled and then hugged Ayame gently to show how he wanted to be hugged.
"I can do that!"
"Then it's settled then… Yuki will visit Ayame every Saturday" Shigure banged a gavel.
"YAY YUKI! YOU DID IT, NOW IT'S YOUR TURN TO DARE SOMEONE!" Momiji shouted with pure joy and excitement.
"M…My Turn"
"Of course silly! Don't you know how to play DARE?"
Yuki really didn't know the rules of the game but he saw how it was done once and he was a quick learner. "Oh… Okay… Then I dare Kyo…."
"WHAT! YOU CAN'T DO THAT! I JUST DARED YOU, SO YOU HAVE TO PICK SOMEONE ELSE!"
"No he doesn't… we are playing, DARE: Everyone's game, so naturally we cut out the rule of having to pick any person other than the one who dared you." Shigure mindfully noted.
"WHAT! NOBODY TOLD ME THAT!"
"Well that's what you get for jumping in a game without asking the rules" Haru had just gotten up rubbing a huge bump on his head remembering that they were playing dare. He stood up and walked back over to sit next to Tohru.
"WHO ASKED YOU, YOU DAMN COW?"
