Kyou couldn't function on less than seven hours of sleep. If by any chance someone did manage to wake her early, she lay on her bed in a daze, staring up at the ceiling without blinking until Ryou knocked on her door and whispered that breakfast was ready.

This morning was no exception and when she stumbled down the stairs with mismatched socks, yawning her way through the living room and nearly tripping onto the sofa, Sunohara realized anyone could do absolutely anything usually unforgivable around Kyou in this state and she wouldn't mind.

"Yo! Feeling ok there?" Sunohara chirped, bounding over to the couch where Kyou was sprawled, glaring at him sleepily.

"Tired, you see that can't…?" She tried to stretch and gave up halfway, arms dangling off the arm.

"Yes I can," Sunohara suppressed a laugh and watched Ryou from the corner of his eye peer around the kitchen door, worry knitted in her brow.

"Well! I came because I forgot to take notes for chemistry and you're in the same class as me for it-" he paused, still wary of the exhausted girl with unfocused eyes beside him. "So can I have it?"

"Take from backpack," she groaned, rubbing her alarmingly pink eyes.

"Ah thank you!" He breathed out and smiled but before he could reach for her brown bag, she had taken his hand into her own.

"You owe me," her voice was suddenly low and dangerous and Sunohara froze, heart beating wildly. Her facial expression didn't seem to have changed much but her eyes had grown brighter, looking almost mischievous.

"W-w-what do you want?"

"Owe me…youuuuu," she replied, voice fading, and he realized that she was falling back asleep, eyelids drifting down but her hold was tightening.

"R-Ryou!" He hissed but the girl was already behind the couch, eyes wide and fearful. She shook her head silently when he gestured madly for her to come closer.

"She's so unpredictable when she's like this! She almost never gets this tired-"

Ryou squeaked in surprise when Kyou launched herself onto Sunohara, nuzzling his neck, eyes nearly closed.

"Idiot you…idiot. Why don't you- idiot."

"What the hell is wrong with her?" Sunohara gasped, trying his best to pry Kyou away.

"And why does she keep calling me idiot?"

"Youhei." Her voice shifted into something softer, sweeter, and he looked down right as she looked up and pushed herself just an inch farther until their lips brushed against each other.

Sunohara shot up, grabbed his back-pack and ran towards the door without looking back.

Ryou blinked after him but Kyou was already asleep again, snoring quietly into the cushions.


A/N: I'm so sorry for not having updated earlier, I was lazy and uninspired, but writing for Kyou and Sunohara was a lot more fun than I expected! I like the idea here a lot but I admit I didn't put that much effort into wrapping it up, but I have lots more ideas to write now! :)
