Kyou sat on her bed, quietly observing the storm outside her window, the blue scarf warming her delicate hands as she held it. She heard a sudden knock on the door, and turned around as it opened, expecting Alexander to be there. "Alex?" She asked before seeing Rin standing there. "Sorry, I came to check if you were okay, you ran off without saying anything." He said, a light blush on his cheeks. "come in." She muttered as Rin sat down beside her. "Kyou glanced over at Rin, immediately noticing the bandages on his arms and legs. There was a bigger bandage round his head. Kyou looked at Rin with worry, and Rin gave her a reassuring smile. "I'm fine, don't worry. This is nothing-" "it wasn't nothing! I could have killed you Rin! I left back when we were kids so I could gain control of my power, and so I wouldn't hurt you but I still ended up hurting you in the end! Because of my hatred for Satan, I almost killed you." Kyou failed to hold back the tears, and they streamed down her face. "You snapped out of it didn't you?" Rin's voice was calm. "But what if I hadn't?!" She shouted back, her body trembling. Rin grabbed her hands and she stopped and looked at him. "You would have still snapped out of it. Definitely. I would have made sure of it." His eyes turned serious, and The two stared at each other until looking away, their faces reddening. Rin noticed the blue scarf laying beside Kyou. "Is that..." "It's the scarf you gave me back when we were kids. I've kept it all these years." Kyou smiled softly, a blush still in her cheeks. She then looked at Rin. "Do you remember...the last day we spent together?" She asked. "Yeah, we built a snowman. He was pretty awesome." "He was wasn't he! I remember when Yukio walked out with that hat..." Kyou stopped when she remembered something. "Hey...do you remember what happened before Yukio came with the hat?" Her voice was a little quieter now. "Yeah...that's when I gave you my scarf..." "So you remember what I said before?" "You said that you loved us all. That we were your..." "Special friends. But ya know, when I said that I loved you... I didn't mean..." Kyou looked down at the floor. "Ever since I met you I..." Kyou tried, but she couldn't find the right words. Instead, she began leaning in closer to Rin's face. "Rin...I..." Rin also leaned forward, and their lips were almost touching when...

"Hey, I came to see if you were okay- oh hi Rin, you guys okay in here?" Yukio asked as the door creaked open. The two went bright red, looking away from each other. Yukio raised a brow. "So, since you two didn't do the test, you're doing it the day after tomorrow, so be ready for it." Yukio said before grabbing hold of Rin and dragging out of the room. "You shouldn't be hanging out in a girl's room at this time of night idiot." The two boys left the room, and Kyou flopped down on her bed and sighed. "I almost...kissed him." She muttered. Alexander walked I to the room in his cat form. "Alex..." Kyou watched as Alexander sat down on the bed. "I'm going to sleep." He said, curling up on the bed. "Alex, I'm sorry." Kyou said, lying down in her bed and slowly drifting off.

"Oyasumi..."
