Saki: Hi all… Yes I know this is one hell of a strange couple but I had an itching for some oddness today. This is just going to be a handful of Shuffle Stop Resumes. All of the drabbles will be the lovely coupling of Ayame x Kyou. Ok enjoy and R&R please.

1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.

2. Put iTunes or equivalent media player on random.

3. For each song that plays, write something related to the theme you picked inspired by the song. You have only the time frame of the song: no planning beforehand: you start when it starts, and no lingering afterward; once the song is over, you stop writing. (No fair skipping songs either; you have to take what comes by chance!)

4. Do 5 of these, then post.

Anime: Fruits Basket

Couple: Ayame x Kyou

Cibo Matto King of Silence

Kyou slowly limped into Ayame's shop. Yuki had been exceptionally rough in their last fight and had nearly broken the Neko's leg. Mine greeted Kyou at the front counter with a smile and a cup of hot chocolate. "Kyoun Kyoun, Ayame's been waiting for you." Kyou smiled at Mine and accepted the steaming mug. "Tell him I'll be in as soon as I get some ice on my leg. Ok?" Mine smiled and turned to find Ayame to tell him that the ginger cat had arrived.

When she reached the door to the back she turned and winked at Kyou, "Another rough day Neko-san… Ne?" Kyou glowered at her retreating figure and settled down into one of the many overstuffed chairs. It only took a minute for Ayame to come rushing to his boyfriend's side. "Kyoun Kyoun, Mine says you almost died! Is there anything I can do to make it all better?" Kyou just smiled in response to the snake's overzealous entrance. Just knowing his white haired boyfriend cared was enough to brighten up his day.


The Dresden Dolls "The Jeep Song"

The steering wheel groaned under the force of Kyou's grip. Less than 10ft away was the beauty known as Ayame. His white hair pulled back in a ponytail and his arms thrown out dramatically. A young man stood very close to him, laughing at whatever joke or story the snake was telling… just like he used to do with Kyou. Kyou twisted the steering wheel again and had to force himself to calm down. "No… it doesn't matter… he isn't mine any more." Kyou sighed, a painful sound to anyone who could hear it. With tremendous effort he pulled away from the curb and drove past his former love, and that new man.


Hellsing "Saraba Ponkotsu World"

Kyou Danced around the apartment in a drunken Haze… "Damn you Ayame… I'd only do this for you." He slurred to the other man, sitting on the couch with a silly grin on his face.


Peter Bjorn and John "Blue Period Picasso"

"Does he have to be in the room when I come out?" An uncertain voice called from the dressing room. "Oh Kyou, so shy, so modest. It makes my heart bloom with love." Ayame swooned. "Damn it Ayame, answer me for once!" Kyou called back, anger cutting through the embarrassment. A look of mock hurt captured the older man's features. "You wound me with your words Kyou!" he teased.

"I'll step out Kyou…" Hatori was over this ridiculous nattering. Kyou sighed in relief as the click of Hatori's shoes quickly faded away. "Ok I'm coming out…" Kyou called quietly.

He pulled the pink curtain back and slowly stepped into the light. Ayame gasped in pleasure at the sight of Kyou in his latest work of art. "You look beautiful Kyou!" Ayame cried exuberantly. Kyou turned and looked at himself in the full length mirror. He fidgeted slightly at the sight of his Black dress and blue stockings. Although he had to admit, Ayame was right, the blue looked wonderful with his hair. "Kyou, you look good enough to eat." Kyou stifled a yelp at the unexpected wetness on his ear. Ayame chuckled darkly into the Neko's ear and licked it again.


Miyavi "No Song Title"

Kyou sighed and buried his face in the nape of Ayame's neck. A warm summer breeze picked up softly around the reclining couple. "Ayame…" Kyou breathed into the Snake's neck. "Hmm" Ayame stroked the younger boys' hair softly. "Can we do this every year?" Ayame smiled down at his lovely Neko. "If you wish it." Kyou sighed and burrowed further into the warm circle of his lover's embrace. Ayame hugged him tightly as Fireworks began to go off over the festival grounds down below.

Saki: I hope you enjoyed that. Stay tuned for more Drabbles... and I'm sorry that one of them is so short... it was just a 25 second song.
