Hey guys! I'm back with a much requested KidXPatty from author12306. Sorry that I haven't responded in a while! So, I promise to get right on it! Oh, but guys, please go and take the poll on my profile! It's for another chapter, and pretty important! Thanks!

"Kid, Kid!" Patty yelled, running down the stairs, crying. Liz was at the table, talking with Kid over a cup of coffee, when she heard the yell. Before she could react, Kid had jumped up, spilling his coffee across the table.

"Patty!" he ran to the bottom of the stairs, hugging her. "Are you alright, what happened?" Patty was crying, hardly able to talk through her sobs. Liz came and stood in the doorway, watching.

"I... I had another nightmare. K-Kid!" she fell down, and Kid crouched with her.

"It's okay. Shh, it's okay. I'm here." he said, comforting her.

"Was it the same one?" Liz asked, and Kid turned, nodding. "Look, Patty," Liz said, clearing her throat and addressing her sister. "Kid is still here, and so am I. No one is dead, we're all here." Patty nodded, and Kid sat with her still as Liz went to the table and cleaned up the mess that was strewn all over it. "These nightmares sure are getting bad." she muttered to herself.

"I know." Liz jumped and turned to Kid.

"You just scared me half to death!" she whimpered. Kid kept a serious face, and Liz regained hers. "I'll stay here with Patty today, you go and do something with the others, ok?" Kid glanced at her, clearly upset with the offer, but Liz cut him off. "I don't want excuses. Go." Kid's face hardened, and he nodded, grabbing a jacket and leaving. "Patty." Liz cooed, bringing Patty into the kitchen. "Would you like some breakfast?" Patty nodded and sat at the table, still sniffling a little bit. Liz whipped up some pancakes quickly and gave them to Patty. "Here."

"Thanks big sis!" Patty said, smiling and eating happily as though nothing had happened. Liz blinked a couple of times. What's going on? Something doesn't seem right... Liz turned back and began to make a couple more. Hmm, what gives irrational nightmares, and unexplainable mood swings? "Sis, I'm going to the bathroom!" Patty left the table. What would do that? Liz froze, eyes widening in realization, and began to breathe heavily. The madness!

"C'mon, Kid, what's a couple of dreams from a little girl to stop you?" Black*Star asked. Kid looked up, eyes narrowed and anger swelled through him. Within a split second, Kid had put a fist straight in between Black*Star's eyes and sent him flying across the basketball court. The others gasped, and Kid remained frozen in the punching position.

"K-Kid?" Maka stammered. "Why did you d-do that?"

"That cocky bastard dared to say that about Patty." Kid spat out through gritted teeth.

"What, it's not like you're in love with her or something." Soul said, and he flew over to Black*Star as well. Kid's arm was now extended in Soul's previous direction.

"So you are?" Maka asked.

"Huh? Are what?" Kid asked.

"In love with her?" Maka asked. Kid looked at her, and she cringed, waiting for the blow that never came.

"That may be." Kid said, lowering his arm and standing straight.

"Kid!" came the voice before Maka could reply. The conscious pair turned to see Liz sprinting towards them. "Kid, Patty's gone!"

"I thought you were watching Patty today! You told me-!" Kid realized what she had said. "What?"

"Patty, she's disappeared, and I think the madness has affected her!" Liz cried, falling to her knees.

"But, the Kishin is dead!" Maka said, puzzled.

"Yes, but it hasn't affected her until now!" Liz said, realizing that Kid was walking away. "Kid!"

"I'm going to find her!" Kid snapped.

"But, Kid, what if she attacks you?!" Liz demanded. Kid stopped, turning to her, eyes narrowed.

"If she's alive, I will find her." He summoned Beelzebub, climbing on and flying off. I will find her, and not even a damn kishin will stop me!

Kid began combing the town, starting from the DWMA, and then works his way down. He walked through every alley, talking to everyone, searching for the giraffe-obsessed girl. His two-toned amber gaze searching every corner, every nook, anywhere the girl could be. He collapsed in the park, exhausted, and felt his eyes close. Maybe I should just take a nap...

"Kiddo?" a voice asked, and Kid lifted his head. He saw a sort of triple vision of a familiar person. White jacket, short blonde hair, cowboy hat... PATTY!

"P-Patty!" Kis stammered, staggering to his feet. "You-you're okay!"

"Yeah, I couldn't find my big sis, so I went all over town to find her. Do you know where she is?" Patty asked, helping Kid to his feet. Kid didn't reply, only pulled Patty into a hug.

"Oh, thank symmetry you're okay." he murmured into her hair. "I was so worried, now, is it true that you're lost into the madness?" Patty gave him a puzzled look.

"What, no, who said that?" Kid sighed in relief.

"Good." he pulled her back into a hug. "Good."

"Kid, are you okay?" Patty muttered into his jacket.

"As long as you are, I'll be fine."

"Why me?" Kid pulled her back, looking into her eyes.

"Because I love you." he said, Patty's eyes widened. Kid smiled, and Patty leaned forward to whisper something in his ear.

"I love you too." she whispered. Kid smiled, and slowly leaned down. He kissed her softly, pulling her closer. She put her arms around his neck, and kissed him back.

"Kid!" a voice called, and the pair pulled back. Liz collapsed next to Kid, panting. Soul, Maka, and Black*Star ran up behind her. "We have literally been following you everywhere! Is Patty ok?"

"Patty's fine." Kid gave her a longing glance, and Patty giggled. "She's with me."

"Good to see you two are safe." Liz sighed. "And not in the madness."

"No, I mean, with me with me." Kid said.

"I know." Liz said, oblivious. Soul and Black*Star laughed. Maka laid a hand on Liz's shoulder.

"No, he means they're together." Liz paused, thinking.

"Oh!" she exclaimed, and everyone laughed. Kid summoned Beelzebub, extending a hand to Patty with a smile.

"C'mon, let's go home."
