'Is our love really that deep?'

'Is it?'

Yuki ran his fingers through his blonde hair, his golden eyes fixated on the fire crackling in front of him. The words replayed again and again in his head as he slowly turned to look at Shuichi's sleeping form, facing away from him.

'Of couse our love is that deep.' Yuki thought 'But...' He swallowed 'Maybe these are just one sided feelings...maybe he doesn't love me enough to trust me..'

Yuki blinked and sighed, slowly scooting over towards Shuichi, reaching forwards to check his temperature.

'He still feels cold...' He thought, starting to lift up the covers and slide next to his lover, but then hesitating.

'He's stopped...' Shuichi thought 'Why?'

Resisting the initial urge to grab his lover and kiss him when he came near, Shuichi simply laid there, gripping his pillow and attempting to feign sleep by forcing his breathing to remain slow.

'Does he hate me? Does our love not run that deep?'

Shuichi swallowed a sigh as he felt Yuki's body scoot away from his.

'I guess not...'

The couple remained there for another day, until the snow let up, and sometime around midnight, they could here shouting and a car horn from outside.

Looking up from his book, Yuki glanced over at Shuichi to confirm that he too had heard the familar voice, and both men got up and took off towards the door.

Yanking it open, both men were greeted with a lovely sight. What at first appeared to be a large mass of clothes, since there were so many layers it was almost impossible to distinguish whether or not there was a human being underneath, revealed itself to be Mei upon closer inspection of her silver strands of hair poking out from under her hat.

"Hey boys."

Shuichi chuckled and sighed with relief.

"Mei!" he said excitedly "You're here!"

"Of course!" She grinned

"Did you... drive?" Yuki asked, looking at her askance, beconning her to come in.

"Nope. I walked."

"WHAT?" Both men asked

"-- From about 200 meters away."

"Huh?"

Mei chuckled and pointed upwards, where upon the men both grinned as they heard the loud wush of the helicopter preparing to land outside.

"I just like to make a big entrance." Mei replied to the look on their faces

"I'm an idiot."

Yuki dropped his cupcake, choking on the piece he had swallowed.

"What?!" He looked up at Shuichi, who stood in front of him, his serious face on.

It had been two weeks since the two had returned from their vacation, and neither one had been talking to the other.

"I'm an idiot." Shuichi repeated again, nearing Yuki "I'm stupid and dumb and..."

"Whoa whoa whoa... what brought this on?" He asked

"Um.. aren't you mad at me?" he asked

Yuki shook his head.

"No..." He replied "I thought you were mad at me..."

After a moment of silence, both laughed.

"So... we haven't talked..." Shuichi began "Haven't touched in... in two weeks because... we... because..."

"We're dumb?" Yuki finished

Shuichi laughed, and then smirked, getting that look in his eye. He moved seductively forwards, closing the small bit of space between Yuki and him in what seemed like an impossibly long time to Yuki.

Smirking wider, Shuichi removed Yuki's book from his lap and his glasses from his face, placing a much needed and not to mention wanted kiss on his lips, nesteling deep into Yuki's lap.

"Um..." Shuichi began "You know that this means, don't you?"

"What?" Yuki asked coyly

"You have to make it up to me."

"Is that so?" Yuki replied "Why me?"

"Because, you're supposed to be the smart one... you should've realized the mistake..."

Yuki chuckled.

"So now, it's my fault huh?"

"Uh huh." Shuichi replied

"Shu?"

"Hm?"

"I love you, always... know that."

Shuichi grinned.

"I do." He replied "Now..." He said, his arms stretching languidly up his body "How do you plan to make it up to me?"

REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!!

A.N. I made this fight over a lot sooner than I'd originally intended, which makes me almost sad, but I don't think I'm completely done with it right now. I'm sure there's more that I'll bring up later. It's been forever since I've been able to update, and I feel awful about it. My only internet capable computer died, so I haven't had the chance to put anything up. But now I'm at the public library, so I managed to get this... sadly short chapter up. Thanks for reading!
