A/N: Um...drama starts here. But by NO means does it end anytime soon...

OH: and thank you to all of my lovely readers and reviewers! The comments I get just make my day (and since I'm abnormally happy today I'm even more thrilled to see new ones~) You are all fantastic and just...awesomely great for supporting this fic!

And maybe change wasn't quite a strong enough word for the fact that the more Takano came over, the less of a fuss Ritsu made, and the less he demanded his spare key back.

Things were now downright topsy-turvy.

"Do you even know what your floor looks like anymore?" Takano teased as he came settled among the various piles on the in the room.

"Shut up..." the brunet scowled, searching for a set of papers amongst the many he knelt in, "C'mon...I just set them down..." he muttered to himself.

"What'd you lose?"

Flinching at the sound of his boss' voice coming from right beside him Ritsu rolled his eyes, "I didn't lose anything. I just...misplaced it..."

Chuckling, Takano refrained from commenting, choosing instead to lure Saga over with a treat.

"Don't give him that! You'll spoil him!" Ritsu snapped, glancing over his shoulder just in time to see the act.

"Really now?" Takano asked, glancing pointedly at the half empty bag of treats on Ritsu's counter.

"T-that's different!" the brunet stammered, looking away, blushing, "I'm trying to train him!"

"Maybe I am too." the older male replied easily, scratching at the dog's ears, "If I give him treats, he'll like me more." he smirked, "And then maybe you'll have to learn to like me too."

Freezing, but still refusing to face the other male, Ritsu muttered, "Baka..." before beginning to shift through his papers once more.

Only to be stopped again, but this time as arms wrapped around him from behind, "Takano-san, wha-?"

"Would you mind if I kissed you?"

And with that one utterance, all of time seemed to stop then and there, and the brunet felt his breath hitch almost anxiously. No! He shook his head; he would not fall for the older male again!

"Get out." he whispered.

"Nani?"

"I said get out!"

Shaking as those arms left him, Ritsu stared at the floor, head tilted so his bangs covered his eyes.

"Ritsu, I-"

"I mean it Takano-san! Just...just get out!"

He listened to the shuffle of the other's feet, and the click of his door shutting without further argument, before standing up and making his way to the kitchen. There he stood indescively for a moment, and as he caught sight of Saga trailing after him hopefully he realized he hadn't fed the dog dinner yet.

He didn't mean to forget-but when Takano had first come in he'd meant to ask if-

Muttering to himself and slamming a cupboard shut Ritsu placed a bowl down for Saga, who looked at it briefly before turning back to his master.

"What?" Ritsu growled, walking over to the couch to sit down. Staring at him a moment longer, the mutt seemed to find it in his best interest to indulge in his dinner.

Sighing the brunet wondered just why it was he ever bothered having Takano over at all(other than the fact that there was no stopping him). The man was a nuisance and trouble to boot. Yet he always found his way in to the green eyed male's home, and as of lately, they'd actually been starting to have good times.

'Maybe I was too harsh...' he thought. After all, Takano had actually asked if he wanted to be kissed this time around, 'But he shouldn't ask such things!' the brunet thought angrily, he'd told the other man countless times that what they had was simply a boss-subordinate type relationship. Why did he always have to push that line though?

Rubbing his eyes tiredly Ritsu also had to wonder why he actually hesitated to answer...

His thoughts were interrupted however when he heard a knock on said neighbor's door.

Curious, he stood, wandering over to his own door, pressing his ear against it.

After a moment's silence, he heard Takano's door open.

"Ready to go Masamune? Sorata's just dying to see you." a voice that usually was snappish to Ritsu came from the hall.

'Yokozawa-san?' he thought, heart clenching.

"Hai hai, give me a minute will you." now it was Takano who spoke, and Ritsu could hear the smile in his voice.

A few more words were exchanged, but the brunet didn't catch them, shocked in to a mode of 'why?'.

He'd been told multiple times that there was nothing between his boss and Yokozawa (at least, Takano had told him that). But here he was, after having been unceremoniously thrown from his 'true love's' home and he was leaving to Yokozawa's?

He was snapped from his reprieve as Saga barked, head tilted as he watched the brunet.

Green eyes narrowing Ritsu said, "So what? It's not like I care! I have people of my own I can see!" he added, reaching for the phone in his pocket and looking up the number he should have deleted long ago...

A/N: OKAY:

Just to clarify-because I sense I will have to explain this many much times-Ritsu is upset because here he is having a good time with Takano-and he's not entirely sure how he feels about that (he DOES enjoy his company...but he doesn't WANT to) so when Takano pushed the line-like usual-he had a bigger reaction because of these mixed feelings. And NOW he's even more upset because to him it looks like 'Ritsu kicked me out? Whatevs', Yokozawa will be more welcoming.' (because we all know Ritus has his stupid I'm angry but not jealous deal thing going on). So there! Hope that makes sense to you.

NEXT: Do not hate me for what happens next. Seriously. Some of you guessed it, but still...yeah...

Review! :P
