Author's Note: Thank you very much for reviews.

Usagi

Sunlight poured through the windows and stung my eyes. I'd been awake most of the night. Watching Misaki, rubbing his head slowly until his sleep became relaxed. He stretched like a cat and opened one eye. He looked around. "I'm sorry did I bother you last night?"

"Not at all." He looked relieved. This was what it was like to feel like no matter what you did you were always a bother. I didn't like that Takahiro left this feeling inside his so called precious little brother.

"I'll make breakfast." I stopped him from getting up.

"Not so fast." He looked confused. "You think it was easy for me to lay here near you all night. I want some type of reward."

"But I thought I didn't bother you." He tried to shove my arm away.

"I've reconsidered." His eyes widened. "But don't worry. I don't want much. Just to kiss you." He was quiet for a minute. "Wherever I want."

"Only kisses right?" His eyes were round and green, simply beautiful.

"Of course." He nodded.

"Fine."

Misaki

Usagi lifted my leg, running his fingers from my calf down to my ankle. His grip tightened, it hurt for less than a second before becoming the most gentle touch I'd ever known. He started at my foot and then worked his way up leaving a trail of kisses that lit my skin on fire. I was struggling to breathe. I thought a kiss was a kiss, but I was wrong. Sometimes they were gentle, others rough, and sometimes I could feel his tongue, warm and rough on my skin. He teeth would graze me and sometimes he would bite, but it didn't feel bad. He stopped when he reached my thigh and looked up at me. It was the look of a devil. I could feel my heart tighten in my chest. "Don't worry. Only kisses." Somehow I doubted he was telling the truth.

But he was. They were kisses. Just in all the places I didn't want him to kiss me. I endured it until he was satisfied with his work. "I've worked up an appetite." He smiled. I slid of the bed and walked down the stairs careful to hold on to the railing.

I was just into cooking breakfast when the front door opened. Aikawa walked in holding some books. She stopped and looked at me. I was only wearing a pajama shirt that was thankfully too long for me. I wrapped my arms around my stomach. "Um...hi...I'll uh...get Usagi for you." She looked confused. I took the steps two at a time. "Usagi...there's a girl here..." He looked annoyed. I pulled on my pants and hurried back downstairs to check on the rice I was making. He followed a couple minutes later, giant bear in tow.

"Aikawa." He flopped down on the couch and gestured towards the seat across from him. She sat down. She glanced at me.

"Breakfast will be done in a couple minutes." Aikawa smiled, Usagi just began flipping through papers.

Aikawa

I never thought I would see that kid hear this fast. It was only a little while ago that Akihiko-san had shown me this kid, the one at the park running so fiercely. Here he was though. Judging by how he was when I walked in, they'd already started a relationship. There was nothing I could do about it now, but I could feel a small ache in my heart. It was like this every time Akihiko-san entered into something that would probably just hurt him, hurt me in return. Sometimes I couldn't understand why I wasn't good enough for him. I knew it wasn't that I wasn't desirable. That wasn't the problem. I'd had my share of relationships. It's that I wasn't desirable to him. What was...was the Takahashi's. Something about them was what he was looking for. No matter how hard I tried. I would never be able to hold one against them.

I looked back towards the kitchen where he stood. I wasn't a good cook. His name was Misaki if I remembered. He reached up for some cups, pulling his shirt up slowly as he did so. I saw the look on Akihiko's face and knew that he'd never feel the same way about me. And suddenly I wanted to cry. There was no way I could compete with Misaki. He had everything most girls wanted. Soft hair, big round eyes, a slight figure, and creamy pale skin that looked like milk tea. "Well, read through all these Sensei. Call me if you have any questions. I have a bit of work that I still need to take care of. I will come check on you so you better have you work done soon." He looked up with a confused expression on his face. "I have copies of the paperwork this time to just circle anything you'll have questions about and call me." I practically ran out.

I was probably destined to be alone. Every man I was with claimed I couldn't open up my heart even though they gave me everything. The problem was I wanted what I couldn't have. It'd been like this for years now. My heels echoed as I ran to the elevator. I pushed the button multiple times. I looked back even though I knew he wasn't coming after me. I took a deep breath and stepped into the elevator trying to calm the pounding in my head. I couldn't be too mad. It took some real skill to melt the ice in Usami Akihiko's heart. "You must be one special person Misaki."
