Diclaimer: don't own it, don't sue.

Sorry this chapter took so long and is so short...my muse went on vacation.

"So did you have fun baka?"

Tasuki grinned. He had a lot of fun actually, up until Miaka ran off. They spent two hours looking for her, and had finally run across Tamahome, who casually mentioned that he had met up with the miko and taken her home. The remainder of the evening had been...not romantic.

"Yeah, I had fun."

"Good."

Nuriko yawned and put his hands behind his head. He was tired...it had been a long day. A long, unrewarding day. Sure it had been relatively fun, but somehow...somehow it felt like something that should have happened never did...

"Did you have fun Nuri-chan?"

He was so...so incredibly dangerous looking, Nuriko loved it. A bit of daring was needed in everyone's life, right? Right. The shock of orange-red hair offset his tanned skin in the most beautiful way, and the fangs! Oh those fangs would feel so erotically good in certain areas-

"Nuri-chan!"

"Huh?"

"Baka, never mind."

Forcing himself to look at something else, Nuriko turned his gaze to the stars. Often, he'd look up and find all the constilations just to keep his mind off things. However...the small seishi's eyes kept wandering back to Tasuki....

Maybe he should quit pretending. He'd stopped dressing for Kourin and acting like Kourin, perhaps it was time to stop loving for Kourin? And as much as he hated to admit it, Nuriko really did like the red haired baka....

Before he knew it he was kissing him.
