Thank you all for the reviews! I was wondering if you guys liked when I responded to them? Something to say if you review the chapter . Enjoy!


I kept my head down during dinner, attempting to ignore Shigure. Damn mutt…

"Hey Kyo." I brought my head up and looked directly at Tohru, still trying to ignore the damn sniggering dog.

"Yeah?" She looked curious as she pointed to a spot on her neck.

"How did you get that bruise?" My eyes got wide and I started blushing. I quickly brought my hand up to cover my neck and put my head down, looking up to glare at Shigure who started chuckling.

"I'm afraid that was my fault Honda-san." I looked up at Yuki sharply while Tohru looked worriedly between us. He wouldn't…

"Are you two fighting again?" I openly glared at Shigure as his shoulders started shaking in suppressed laughter while he had one hand over his mouth and the other on his side, as if in pain. I can arrange that. I was in the process of getting up to follow through on that when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned towards it and was surprised to see Yuki there. How did he get here so fast? Before I had any time to react, he quickly grabbed my arm and pulled me up and out of the house.

Not exactly the exit I wanted but it could've been worse I suppose. I led Kyo to a nearby park, where we leaned on the bar in front of the swings, catching our breath.

"What the hell?" I chuckled breathily, still not having caught my breath.

"I said after dinner. You were done, right?" I saw him roll his eyes and cross his arms as I straightened up.

"Cold?" He shook his head.

"Not particularly." I merely raised an eyebrow at this, not wanting to push it but showing I didn't believe him. I started towards the swings and watched, amused, as I saw Kyo give me a confused look before walking over to the swing next to mine. He didn't quite make it though as I grabbed his waist and brought him onto my lap.

"What the- What're you doing?" I chuckled as I scooted back on the swing so my knees touched the front, causing Kyo to slip in between my now open legs onto the swing.

"Oi! Yuki, what-" He cut himself off as I pushed off with my legs, causing him to grab the chains. I kept the rocking shallow and put my head on his shoulder, enjoying having my neko with me in my arms.

I stopped trying to figure out what was going on as I let Yuki slowly push us. It was a nice night out, but despite what I had said earlier, I had been cold until Yuki had pulled me over. I wonder if he had wanted to talk about anything in particular. Maybe I should ask? I was reluctant to break the comfortable silence though. Honestly, I was happy just sitting here so I let the silence be. I felt Yuki kiss the back of my neck before putting his head back on my shoulder. I felt my face heat a bit at this. Why did he do that? I didn't do anything… The rocking was making me sleepy and I tried getting up, not wanting to fall asleep on the swing.

"What's wrong?" I looked back at Yuki, who still hadn't let me up but stopped his swinging.

"Nothing, just tired." He nodded and got up, finally letting go. I folded my arms again to keep warm. Yuki just looked at me and shook head.

"What?"

XxX

I sighed and shook my head again before looking at Kyo.

"Are you cold?" He looked away, a small blush on his cheeks.

"A bit." I smiled as I walked over to him. I wrapped my arm around him, kissing him on the top of his head as he put it on my shoulder. We started walking back like that, neither of us bothering with a conversation. I stopped about a block from home to check on Kyo. I had noticed that he had been leaning on me more and more throughout the walk. I looked at him and started chuckling softly. He had fallen asleep on my shoulder, his breathing peaceful and even. I smiled at how cute he could be. I carefully picked him up bridal style, trying to make sure not to wake him.

"Y-Yuki…" I quickly glanced down, thinking I had woken him. I let out a breath of relief and smiled, pressing him to me for a moment before resuming walking again, a sleeping neko in my arms.


A bit delayed but up nonetheless. Like? Hate? Tell me please :)
