Chapter 21 - Spend the Day With Me

"I didn't expect the guy to kiss me." Kazu sighed and sat back down to finish his ramen.

Agito just shrugged and sat down to finish his meal also. He smirked as he heard the siren of an ambulance pull up in front of the establishment.

Kazu looked up towards the door of the shop for a second before glancing back at the shark. "Well at least you're giving the paramedics something to do."

"Sure.." He seemed very smug about the excitement.

The blond just shook his head. He returned to eating, looking back up at the boy after a moment. "Say Agito, I meant to ask, what's with the "You are mine." thing coming up lately? That's the second time you said that within the past couple days. In that same tone too."

"Well, you are mine, is there an issue with that?" he asked, looking off to the side.

"No. We already discussed that, remember? It's the way you say it. Like it's a threat. What was it this time? Because you were jealous of that stranger hitting on me? That makes sense but, what pissed you off yesterday to say that then?"

"Nothing... I just felt like saying it that way."

"Right..." Kazu replied in disbelief. "Okay...let's see...what happened yesterday that could have made you jealous..." he muttered lightly as he looked upwards in a thinking gesture.

"Fuck.. Nothing alright!"

"Oh? If it was nothing then you wouldn't be so defensive about it."

"You did not just say that..." Agito sighed. "God, you are just like Akito."

Kazu laughed. "Oh! I do remember you did seem pretty pissed off at one point. You shot a fang at me, Ikki and Onigiri. So something around that time then..." he continued.

"Che... It's nothing, fuck..."

"You know, if you don't tell me I'm just gonna figure it out for myself. It's up to you. Let's see...I wonder what it was..."

"Fuck, fine! You and Ikki shirtless. That retarded crow was on top of you and it pissed me off, that's all there is too it," the boy explained as he looked away, feeling somewhat humiliated.

Kazu looked blankly at the shark for a few minutes as he realized what he was talking about. A smile slowly crept across his face. "Aww...Agito. You're-you're so silly," Kazu laughed playfully. "You don't need to remind me that I'm yours. I'm not a run-around kinda guy you know?"

"Che... Yeah well... Fuck. I know, but still I don't give a shit."

Kazu sighed. "And you thought my jealous expressions were adorable..."

Agito glanced back at the blond and gave him something similar to a sheepish smile. "Yours are still much more adorable," he mumbled. Sitting up slightly, the boy leaned over the table and kissed him.

"Sure..." Kazu replied, accepting the kiss with a smile.

The boy sighed. "Fuck... This is all so strange," he muttered as he began to eat again.

Kazu turned back to his food as well. "Yeah...it is," he agreed. "But...whatever."

"Fuck, Kazu... Everything is so…Different…"

"...and?" Kazu asked, looking up from his bowl again. "It's not like any of this is normal for me either ya know..."

"Fuck, I guess not."

Kazu let out a small laugh. "I don't...I mean it is really strange and...different...but I don't dislike it so...I guess I might as well just go with it. That's what I think anyway. I mean… even if I wanted to try and deny it or pretend, it doesn't change the fact that I do really like you. And I can't do anything about it. But… to try and hide it I think…would just cause both of us a lot more pain, you know? So… I'm just gunna accept it for what it is and see where it goes… it's kinda my only option…"

"Yeah... I guess."

"Oi... Is that you Kazu?" Onigiri called suddenly as he and Buccha walked into the Raman shop.

Kazu slammed his head down into the table. "It's like I'm being stalked," he mumbled quietly.

"Fuck, I'm sorry," Agito remarked with an annoyed yet amused tone.

"Oh, you're here too Agito. Ohayou~"

"Fuck..."

The blond sat back up properly and greeted his teammates. "So what brings you two here?"

"Food. We decided to go out to eat for once and I heard this place was good."

"Ah, I see. Yeah. It is pretty good actually," Kazu replied, looking down at the now empty bowl in front of him.

"Yeah? So are you two having a private training session on our day off?"

"Uh..." Kazu glanced at Agito before looking back at his friends. "Yeah..." he answered, feeling that it was the best reasoning he could use right now. He had forgotten that this was usually the day they took off from practicing.

"Wow, so dedicated~ Well, have a good day off you two," Onigiri replied as he and Buccha walked off to the other side of the restaurant.

"At least the pigs aren't as bad as the Crow…."

"Yeah..." Kazu agreed with a sigh.

"Well, let's get going before the crow does show up."

"That's a good idea," he nodded as they stood up to leave. "So...what now?" Kazu asked as they began to walk down the street. Considering they didn't have practice today, he wondered if Agito would actually want to spend the day with him.

"Do you have plans? I doubt you'd want to spend all fucking day with me."

"Why not? Who else would I want to spend it with?" Kazu answered with a shrug.

"Well... What would you want to do?"

"Umn...I dunno..." he laughed. Somehow things always seemed to fall awkward between them.

"Well... Maybe you can decide with Akito, I'm not good with making plans..." the boy replied, switching before the blond had a chance to protest.

"Huh? But- umn..." Kazu blinked awkwardly at the boy. 'Agito, why would I want to make plans with Akito to hang out with you? That's just...damn you, you're secretly a coward in awkward situations. Bastard….'

Akito shook his head and sighed before looking up at Kazu with an innocent smile. "Well...I know! Let's go find Ikki-k-"

"No way."

"Aren't you friends?"

"I don't think that was the point of you switching."

Akito laughed. "Right. Right. You want to spend time with Agito, ne Kazuma-san?"

"That was kind of the idea..."

"Hmn..." 'Do you really need me to make plans for you Agito?'

'Yes... I can't think of anything...'

'And you think I know what you want to do with Kazuma-san? Aside from that,' he giggled.

'Well I don't- you know what? Shut up Akito.' Agito stopped as he realized what the boy had just said. 'Okay you know what? You're going away,' he decided, forcefully switching the eye patch. The boy sighed and looked back up at Kazu. "He's no help... Did you want to do anything specifically?"

Akito sighed with a smile. 'What did you expect?'

Kazu raised an eyebrow at the shark. "Wow..." he snickered, a bit amused by Agito's cowardice.

"What? Leave me alone. I don't know what other people like to do in their spare time..."

"Well...I don't do much. Actually, I'm usually hanging around with Ikki and Onigiri. What do you usually do?"

"... Practice... Akito's usually the one in charge of a normal life. I'm just around for battles and such…."

"Right..." 'That should've been obvious...' "Well, we could just walk around or...I dunno. My sister did say she'd be out all day. We could just hang out at my place if you want..." he suggested.

"Well... I think it would get fucking awkward if we were just sitting in your house... We could go there later I guess. Any shops you want to stop by? AT maybe or …?"

Kazu shrugged. "Not really. Not like I have the money to spend anyway."

"Uh... well... fuck, I could... well... get you something," he mumbled quietly.

The blond laughed and threw an arm around Agito's shoulder as they continued walking. "That's okay. I don't need anything."

"Alright..." he mumbled again as they somehow silently resolved to window shopping.

Author's notes:

Gah... alright, sorry for the late update. Just got back from a trip Tuesday and then my internal "whatdayisit?" clock got all confuzled and then I was stupid and spent all morning Thursday starring at the comp- and forgetting to blink apparently- as I worked on some digital art, thus giving me a headache. So I decided the less I needed to stare at the screen, the better. And then yesterday... okay I don't have an excues after that...Gomen... ^^" But we got it up anyway! Heh...

Another shorter one, but hopefully it amused you still.
