~*~ Day 26- Something Hot ~*~

"You're really going to bed with that on?" Kano asked raising an eyebrow.

As Kido managed to zip her red jacket all the way up she nodded. "Why not? It gets cold at night, and I don't like getting cold when I'm trying to sleep." she explained simply. After turning off the midnight in the room the only light was coming from the two beside table lamps on either side of Kido's bed.

"Then why are you wearing shorts?" he questioned. Really, in all honesty, he was actually somewhat curious. But then also he didn't want Kido to go to sleep just yet.

Kido sighed, pulling the edge of her jacket down a little more over the waistband of her shorts as she was now consciously aware of them. "I wear them so I don't get too hot." she said.

This time it was Kano who sighed. "Hot. Cold. You really are too fickle Tsubomi." he said and then lazily grinned at her.

"I'm not fickle!" she protested all too quickly, her voice rising slightly. Kido stopped and cleared her throat before she continued. "I am not fickle." she said again firmly, sounding much more in control. "It's just common sense. Which you'd know if you had any." Kido added jadedly.

"Ouch. Harsh." said Kano faking a pained look. Kido just ignored it as she pulled back the covers of her bed and leaned her back against her pillows, nestling comfortably. Then she looked at Kano expectantly. "Well?"

The blonde tilted his head at her. "Well what?" he asked.

She gave him a look as if to say, (are you serious?)"Aren't you coming?" Kido asked.

Again he gave her another confused look. "Coming?"

"To bed, you idiot." she said in exasperation, "How much clearer does it need to be?"

Suddenly Kano's eyes shown. He clasped his hands together like an excited kid with a goofy smile on his face. "Aw, Tsubomi finally wants me to sleep with her? It's like a dream come true."

Now he was just over exaggerating. "It's not like we haven't ever slept togeth- in the same bed before." Kido said, deciding half way through to be more elaborate with her words.

"Yeah, but this time Tsubomi is actually (asking) me. It's totally different." Kano pointed out. He was still grinning.

Kido rolled her eyes. "Whatever." she said, "I only asked because I figured you would only do it anyway no matter what I said."

"Sure you did." he said teasingly.

"Shut up." she snapped, "Now are you coming or not?"

Before she could say anything further there was a cold rush of air and Kano slipped into the bed and snuggled up next to her, grinning. "I'm coming." he said with a snicker.

Kido suddenly shuddered. "Je-jesus Kano, your feet are freezing." she said and moved slightly away from him.

Kano's grin only widened, "Whoops, sorry about that." he apologized, though Kido doubted if he was really sincere about it at all. She thought that about almost everything he did. Almost.

"Alright." she said and turned over to reach the bedside lamp on her side. "Hey can you get the other one?" Kido asked as she clicked the light off.

When she turned back around Kido jumped. Kano had completely ignored her asking to turn off the light and had moved even closer to her. So close in fact that right now their noses were millimeters away from touching.

After her heart had calmed down a bit she frowned. "You gonna sleep with that light on?" she asked.

Kano shook his head, smiling mischievously. "No." "Then what are you-" she was cut off when he suddenly pressed his lips to hers.

At first she jolted back, surprised by this unforeseen action, but Kano's hands pressed against her lower back and she was held in place. Kido sighed when he pulled away, "Did you really need to do that." Without even waiting for his answer she tried to push herself away, but found it clearly impossible with his hands on her back.

Kano turned on his back, pulling Kido with him, so she was leaning over him and trapped against his chest. "Yeah. It was necessary." he said.

"K-Kano, this isn't the time right now. Let me go." Kido said. It was late and she was tired. She pressed her hands to his chest, trying to ignore the heat rising in her face.

"Ah, but I kinda like this position with Tsubomi." Kano said with a sly grin. Then he flipped them over so Kido was nestled underneath him, straddling her waist. "Actually no, I think I like this one better."

Kido felt her body heat increase. She was feeling completely uncomfortable in the current position they were in. "Kano, I swear, you... you get off me!" She tried to struggle out from the grip he had now on her wrists, pinning them at her sides, but it was too firm and, despite his lean frame, he was too heavy.

"But I don't want to." Kano murmured and leaned down closer to her. One of his hands that had been pinning her wrist moved to her neck. His finger traced down the side of her neck in a slow, teasing brush that made Kido shiver. His lips then brushing against her jaw didn't help either. "Are you warm yet Tsubomi?" Kano asked.

"What the hell does that have to do anything?!" Kido demanded. She tried to glare at Kano but the side of his head was pressing against hers.

Kano chuckled and rolled off from on top of her. Kido took in a breath, feeling relief wash over her. Her heart began to slow back down and she pressed her cold hands to her very warm cheeks.

"I just meant to flirt with you a little." Kano said as if it was the most innocent of intentions, "Besides you're warm now right? If your not, we could always snuggle together for warmth."

Kido should have kicked his ass out right then; at least she should if she were mad. But surprisingly, she wasn't mad. Maybe a little irritated, but not mad. Instead she took him up on the suggestion.
