As Teru ran from Yuki and Hizaki ran after Yuki, the distance between each of them seemed to just get further. Teru was faster than Yuki, and Yuki was faster than Hizaki. Trying to find a way to get away from the angry brunette, Teru looked around as he ran. 'Maybe Masashi can help me hide!' Teru inwardly hoped. 'But I have to put enough distance between me and Yuki to make sure I have time to hide!'

Yuki was already getting sick of chasing Teru. It was ticking him off that he couldn't catch the other. He was so focused on Teru that he didn't even notice that Hizaki was running after him. 'Damnit! How can he run so fast?' He was so annoyed by the fact that he was falling behind further and further.

Hizaki hated running so much. It was difficult to run a lot while in a nice dress. While chasing after Yuki, he noticed that they had passed Kamijo a few times. Was Kamijo following them to keep an eye on what was going on? Hizaki thought the oldest one wasn't worried about this situation, but maybe he was wrong. Maybe Kamijo was just hiding it."You know, you could at least help a little." Hizaki said as he passed by Kamijo for what seemed to be the fourth or fifth time. Kamijo definitely had to be following them. They were running through different halls and always spotting Kamijo.

Maybe Kamijo agreed with what Hizaki said. He should probably help at least a little bit. Following the chase to yet another hallway, he waited for just the perfect moment. Teru ran right by him, too concerned with getting away from Yuki to pay attention to Kamijo. Leaning his back against the wall, Kamijo waited for Yuki to get close. Just as Yuki was about to pass him, the oldest one stuck out his foot and tripped the brunette. It seemed like a good idea at first. However, Kamijo couldn't help but cringe when Yuki hit the floor pretty hard. Receiving a sharp glare from the brunette, Kamijo shrugged his shoulders a little."Oops. My bad, Yuki." he said with a calm tone. He watched Yuki get up then glanced toward Hizaki, who was catching up."You might want to start running again. Otherwise, Hizaki will try to make you stop chasing Teru."

Yuki glanced back at Hizaki as well then started running after Teru again. Hizaki had seen what Kamijo did and was relieved that Kamijo didn't just stand by and do nothing. While passing Kamijo, the pretty male reached over and gave Kamijo's head a quick pat."Good boy." Now that the distance between Hizaki and Yuki was shorter, it wouldn't be so hard to catch up.

Masashi was about to open his bedroom door and look out to see what all the commotion was, but he didn't know if that would be a good idea. Whatever was going on was probably none of his business. After thinking for just a moment, Masashi opened his bedroom door a little and looked down the hall, seeing Teru coming."Teru!" Masashi called to him."Why are you running?"

Seeing and hearing Masashi, Teru ran straight for his lover's room."Masashi, let me in!" He didn't give Masashi a choice. He ran into Masashi's bedroom and quickly closed the door."Yuki's after me! Hide me!"

Masashi shifted his gaze around his room, not having many places Teru could hide."Just get in the closet. I'll see what I can do about Yuki." He watched Teru hurry over to closet and get inside of it. Then, Masashi stood by the door, holding onto the knob and waiting for Yuki to get close. Hearing Yuki approaching, Masashi quickly swung the door open, feeling the impact of the door and Yuki colliding with each other. There was a loud thump when Yuki hit the floor for the second time. Masashi stepped out of his bedroom and put a foot down on Yuki's chest to prevent him from getting up.

"Get off of me!" Yuki demanded angrily. When he tried to get up, Masashi's foot pressed down on his chest harder, keeping him down. The brunette looked up when Hizaki caught up.

Hizaki looked down at Yuki then at Masashi."Where's Teru?"

Masashi leaned over and whispered into Hizaki's ear, telling him where Teru was. He kept Yuki held down as Hizaki ran to his closet to check on Teru."Yuki, I thought you were good at controlling your anger." he spoke with a glare, mad that Yuki had been trying to hurt his lover, though he understood the reason.

"I am!" Yuki snapped."But Teru hurt Rubi! So, I want to hurt him!" That was a good enough reason to let out his anger. At least, it was good enough for him.

Masashi was about to speak, but someone else spoke."What's going on?" Masashi and Yuki both looked over and saw Rubi.

Knowing this was of concern to Rubi, Masashi told him."Yuki was trying to hurt Teru."

Rubi stepped over to them and lightly tapped Masashi's shoulder."Please get off of Yuki. I'll deal with him."

"You'll deal with me? Ha! As if you could stop me from doing anything." As soon as Masashi moved his foot off of Yuki's chest, the brunette tried to get up. However, he was stopped by Rubi, who sat on his stomach before he could get up from the floor."Get off!"

The human knew Yuki wouldn't dare shove him off. Crossing his legs to show that he had no intention of getting off of Yuki, Rubi peered down at his vampire lover."Calm down, Yuki."

"You're not in charge of me, Rubi." Yuki wanted to push Rubi off but just couldn't do it. He never dared lay a hand on Rubi in an offensive way, not wanting to hurt him by accident.

"Yes, I am." Rubi turned his gaze into a stern one."You need to behave, Yuki. I don't want you to hurt Teru. Violence isn't the answer to anything."

Yuki crossed his arms and turned his head to the side. He was silent for a moment before giving up."Fine."

Masashi was surprised. He'd never seen Yuki give in to anyone so easily before. Maybe Rubi really was in charge of Yuki. Maybe that was the power of owning someone's heart."Thank you for calming him down, Rubi." Masashi said softly, glad the situation didn't appear to have too much violence. It seemed like the only one who actually got hurt was Yuki.

"Oh, Yuki." Rubi became worried when he noticed a red mark on Yuki's forehead."What happened to your head?"

"That would be my fault." Masashi answered before Yuki could."To stop Yuki, I hit him with my door."

Rubi cringed at the thought of being hit with a door."Oh, ouchie." He leaned down to kiss Yuki's forehead then looked up at Masashi."Is Teru alright?" He really hoped Yuki hadn't hurt the other.

"Yes, I believe so." Masashi peeked into his room and saw Hizaki hugging Teru to help him calm down then looked back at Rubi."Hizaki is calming him down right now. Yuki really made him panic."

Yuki, tired of being held down, squirmed a little."Rubi, get off of me."

"No." Rubi shifted his attention back to Yuki."You made me unhappy earlier. So, I'm not going to let you have your way right now." Peering into Masashi's bedroom, he saw Hizaki and Teru."Hizaki, Teru. Will you both come here please?"

Hizaki and Teru both came out of Masashi's room. Hizaki was holding Teru's hand to make sure he wouldn't panic about coming near Yuki."Yes, Rubi?" Hizaki wondered what Rubi wanted.

"I apologize for any trouble Yuki has caused." Rubi hoped Yuki hadn't caused too much trouble.

Teru shook his head a little."There's no need for you to apologize, Rubi." He lowered his gaze a bit."It was my fault. After all, I made Yuki angry by hurting you." He chewed on his lower lip a little."I'm really sorry for scaring you. And I'm sorry for biting you."

"I am sorry for scaring you as well, Rubi." Masashi spoke next."Teru and I feel terrible for the way we acted."

Rubi got off of Yuki and stood up. When Yuki started to get up, Rubi looked down at him and shook his head."Stay, Yuki." His lover obeyed, just sitting on the floor. Turning his attention back to the others, he softly smiled."I forgive you both."

"What about me?" Yuki huffed."I'm the one who was tripped then hit with a door."

"Okay, Yuki." Rubi extended a hand to the brunette."Come with me." After Yuki grabbed his hand and stood, Rubi gave the others a small wave before leading his lover down the hall.

~X~

Rubi led Yuki to the den and motioned to the sofa."Sit down." After Yuki sat down on the sofa, Rubi got onto Yuki's lap, straddling him."Yuki, listen to me, okay." He slumped his shoulders and sighed softly."I'm happy that you want to punish Teru for hurting me, really. But I don't agree with violence."

Yuki lowered his gaze."I know, Rubi. I'm sorry." He was aware that his lover hated violence, but he just couldn't stand the fact that someone was getting away with hurting him.

"You need to make up for your behavior." Rubi leaned in close to Yuki and gave him a gentle kiss."Make me forgive you."

Sliding his arms loosely around Rubi, Yuki perked an eyebrow."How should I do that?" he wondered."What do you want?"

Rubi smiled, knowing exactly what he wanted."You have to call me 'hun'." He was determined to get his way. He wanted Yuki to call him 'hun', not to embarrass Yuki but to make himself feel special. It made him feel really good to be called 'hun' by the one he loved.

Since they were alone, Yuki would try to satisfy Rubi."Okay." He paused for a moment, hesitating a little."I love you..hun." He blushed but was glad to know that he wasn't the only one.

Rubi's cheeks turned bright pink, and his face lit up with a happy smile."I love you too, my Yuki." The human laid his head on Yuki's shoulder."I forgive you."

"Good." Yuki had an idea."But I'm not done." He would make Rubi really happy right now, to make up for the way he'd made him unhappy earlier."Not only are you my Rubi and my hun..But you're also my sweet, cute, beautiful, wonderful, amazing lover.." He smiled, feeling a little less embarrassed about saying things like this to the one he loved so much.

Those things Yuki just said caused Rubi to smile widely while blushing so darkly."Oh, Yuki, you're so amazing." He snuggled against the vampire and lightly kissed his neck a few times."Since you just made me so happy, I'm going to give you something special later."

"Oh, really?" Yuki used one hand to play with Rubi's hair a bit."What are you going to give me?"

"I'm not going to tell you." Rubi nuzzled against Yuki's neck."It's too embarrassing to say."

Smirking, Yuki knew he could get Rubi to say it."Well now, that's not fair." He tilted his head slightly to the side as Rubi continued to give some affection to his neck."I just said some pretty embarrassing things to you. Yet you won't say just one embarrassing thing to me?"

Seeing that Yuki had a point, Rubi sighed softly."Okay, I'll say it.." This was so embarrassing for him. Loving and caring things were easy for him to say to Yuki. However, certain intimate things were still embarrassing for him to say."Later..I'll give you..a blowjob.."

"Really?" Yuki kind of hadn't expected that."I have to wait for it?"

Rubi pulled back just enough to look at Yuki's face."What, you want me to do it now?"

"That would be nice." The brunette watched his human lover get off of his lap and down on his knees in front of the sofa.

"Alright." Rubi was praying no one would look into the den and see them. He unzipped Yuki's pants and freed his lover's shaft. Having such a dark blush covering his cheeks, the human began to slide his fingertips along Yuki's shaft as he also started to lick the tip. He was about to take the tip into his mouth but stopped when he heard the den's door open.

The person who opened the door was Kamijo. He froze for just a few seconds when Rubi looked over at him."Oh, sorry for interrupting." It was easy to see that he was stifling a laugh. Acting like he wasn't at all bothered by the sight, he smiled at them."Congratulations, Yuki. It seems you've gotten Rubi to do things I couldn't."

Rubi covered his face with his hands, feeling completely embarrassed."I've changed my mind." he said, referring to giving Yuki a blowjob.

"Go away, Kamijo!" Yuki grabbed one of the decorative pillows from the sofa and threw it at Kamijo.

Kamijo caught the pillow and chuckled."Well, don't do things like that in the den if you don't want to be seen." He tossed the pillow onto a chair then left the den. In truth, he hadn't meant to walk in on them, but he was unhappy about the sight. The small lingering feelings he still had for Rubi caused him to feel just a little jealous. Maybe if he took his relationship with Hizaki further, he could forget about those feelings for Rubi. 'Wait a minute. If I just sleep with Hizaki with the intention of forgetting Rubi, I'd just be using him.' he thought. 'I don't want to do that. I love Hizaki. When I sleep with him, I will think only about him.'
