Chapter 108:

He roughly awoke to dirt and rain. A mere twenty minutes had passed since his escape, and the still thought ran rampant through his mind. Why had Kyou kissed their older cousin, and what could he see in the horny, self- centered inu? Rolling to face the sky, Yuki allowed the second wave of tears to flow, trickling bitter streaks across his dirt-smudged face.

When the coughing started, the nezumi reluctantly began his trek home. The rain only seemed to pound harder, feeding on his misery. His path was stumbling and swerving through the field, until the house finally came into view. The faint smell of supper flooded his nostrils, much to the boy's distaste. To eat supper he would have to sit in the same room as the disgusting inu, and that backstabbing neko.

It finally hit the nezumi like a slap in the face; Kyou was aiming to get attention through using Shigure. 'Well, two can play that game,' Yuki decided, marching directly into the kitchen, making enough noise that someone else would witness his spiteful action. Grabbing Tohru by the shoulders, the amethyst-eyed bishounen forced his lips upon the innocent, instantly transforming into the tiny mouse that rest at her feet. 'There,' he thought, 'top that Kyou!'

Chapter 109:

HE was only mildly aware of the loud ruckus, his thoughts a jumble as he tried to deal with the new onslaught of feelings. He felt so awkward, and the way the inu responded to the kiss, the action in general, made him feel a little dirtier. But he was thankful to be broken away from his thoughts, which were quickly beginning to annoy him.

Rushing to the kitchen, he wasn't surprised to find Tohru freaking out, he had become accustomed to that; however it was the words that echoed out of her quivering lips, and the bright red that painted her cheeks.

"Yuki k-k-k-issed me." IT was like a stab in the back, and yet it confirmed all of his assumptions; was he not supposed to be accustomed to betrayal?

Well, all he had to do was let go now; let go of the tiny bit of hope that he was crazy enough to have depended on. " Well, I hope you have fun with her." HE stated, his voice void of emotion; but soon the anger replenished itself. " And if that's how you feel, then stay the fuck away from me!!!"

Rushing out the kitchen, he went to the best place he could imagine, the roof...

Chapter 110:

Scurrying madly about the kitchen, in both panic and so that Tohru would not step on him, Yuki knew he had to do something. What could possibly reverse what he had done in both Kyou's and Tohru's minds? He stopped abruptly, thinking the solution would not come out of madness. Climbing up the perch on the table, he waited for the brunette to calm, so he could speak with her.

"Honda-san, I'm very sorry. This was all a mistake." Yuki was trembling; never did he want to do this to Tohru, and yet it just happened. "When we came home from school, I saw Kyou kissing Shigure. I couldn't stand it, so I ran off; but the more I thought about it, the clearer it became that he only did this out of jealousy at the attention I give you. I don't know why I responded in such an irresponsible manor, but please Honda-san forgive me for involving you in this."

In a puff of smoke, with such perfect timing, Yuki was himself again, and snatched up his clothes while the shoujo shielded her eyes. Without time for any further questions, he dashed to the neko's room, burying himself in the covers, and waited for his koi's return; he would have to explain everything...

Chapter 111:

If Yuki had any sense in him whatsoever, he would come up here, he would come up the ladder, and talk to the frustrated neko. That is, if he at all cared...

As if on cue, the ladder began to squeak, and a helpless smile crept up the unexpecting red head's cheeks; the inu just smiled, and slowly approached. With an elegance that neither of the two knew Shigure possessed, he sat glided down next to Kyou. Brushing back orange muffled bangs, Shigure smiled, " I was worried about you Kyou."

His lips caressed Kyou's heated throat in the lightest of kisses, and a soft mew escaped Lyou7Sparted lips. " We both knew that Yuki would betray you. But I promise I won't. You have my word."

"Bu-but..." Kyou's words were lost in his throaty purr, and he fought for the strength to keep from falling off the roof for the second time. It was so wrong, but it felt so right at the same time...

Chapter 112:

Yuki curled into a tight ball underneath the heavy covers; how long would Kyou be up on the roof. He had slowly undressed himself, not sure if it would 'help' in his apology. This was like a total reversal; usually it was Kyou always screwing things up, but now the nezumi couldn't help but feel he was doing everything wrong, and could only hope for a second chance.

Minutes rolled by, and still no neko. Yuki became curious at what the teen was spending so much time doing on the roof. Still he waited; another confrontation on the roof was not a good idea for the redhead, considering his previous injuries. And Yuki still felt chilled all the way to the bones. His skin was still caked with mud, hair slightly damp; it did not create such an appealing picture.

He was nearly asleep when he heard the creaking. Someone was definitely outside the door, and about to enter. Yuki did his best to wake up, look seductive, but he simply felt too ill from being out in the rain. Despite the shivering, Yuki allowed a bit of flesh to be exposed as the door creaked open, and the silhouette of a male stood in the doorway.

"I'm sorry.......really sorry."

Chapter 113:

He wasn't sure how Shigure had accomplished it, but the inu was making him feel so helpless, but in a good way. He continuously purred into the caresses although he knew that just doing that worsened his situation a million fold. His breathing was too quick to object to anything though, gasping in breath in a way that would make it seem as though he were hyperventilating.

Shigure huskily laughed atop his collar bone, the breath making the neko's blood race, and the brunette suggested, "perhaps we should do this in a more private place..."

Kyou's mind knew how naughty the actions were, how he should stop right now, punch the mutt in the face forsaking him feel so helpless, and run off. However his head nodded without him even noticing, and he was swept into the sturdy arms of his cousin, seeming to float as he was carried down the ladder and to his bedroom.

A soft voice broke him out of his stupidity, and turning quick, cat like eyes to his bed, he gazed at the trembling figure there. Yuki looked so very frail, so dead, so very Akito. Had Kyou done this? He was always at fault, so he could only assume that it was he doing. Struggling out of Shigure's grasp, Kyou fought to find his way to the bed.

Placing his heavy, shaking hands on Yuki's shoulder she shook the boy for all he was worth. "What the hell did you do to yourself?! Your gonna have an attack and kill yourself at this rate!" Wrapping his arms around his nude, and drenched cousin, he attempted to cool down the other, ready for the tears to come.

Chapter 114 114 114 1414144414144141414141414141414141411111111141414:

He went limp into the embrace. The heat of Kyou's body burned into his skin. 'What is he doing with Shigure?' Yuki silently wondered to himself. Not only were they together to make him jealous, they did it out of pure enjoyment. It was worse than the staged scenes from before; this was so intimate, Yuki was not even meant to see it. He pulled out of his cousin's arms, curling against the wall in pathetic protest.

"Why are you doing this? Can't you two just continue this where I don't have to witness it?" The nezumi shook with rage and coughing; his mishap in the garden was catching up to him. Furiously wrapping the blankets around his exposed form, Yuki attempted to storm out of the room, only to trip on the bunching fabric, and tumble to Shigure's feet. The inu did not look kindly upon him, a cruel smile playing across his lips. Kicking the fallen boy out of his path, Shigure closed the distance between he and Kyou, forcing the teen onto his bed and tearing the clothes from his dampened skin.

Chapter 115:

HE wanted to run to Yuki and see to the injuries he had no doubt acclaimed from Shigure's rough treatment, but being pinned to the bed, and ravaged at was quite the barrier. However this was one feeling that left him with the power to be himself. Why were all these people suddenly hungering for his body?! It wasn't even all that great! He wasn't at all bulk, in fact entirely too thin, he wasn't entirely too well endowed, and he wasn't tall; and he didn't exactly have a prize personality either...

Throwing Shigure off of him, Kyou leapt for his now still cousin, lying in a tumble of blankets on the floor. What if he were having another attack? Or what if the situation was even worse?! Scooping the pools of blankets into his arms, he shook the other vigorously. "Yuki! YUKI!!"

Chapter 116:

The shacking made him dizzy, as though he was on some violent carnival ride. Luckily there was very little food in his stomach, or the nausea would really have upset him. Going rigid in the other's arms, Yuki thought it was Kyou who needed to be calmed. All of this new attraction to him must be driving the poor neko insane! Staring into the deep ruby eyes, he firmly spoke, despite the shiver in his voice.

"Kyou, stop it. Calm down for a second," The teen almost always over- reacted to things, and this moment was a perfect example. It was amazing that Shigure remained still through all of this, leering at them amongst the remaining sheets. "Why....are you doing this to me?" His drawn face and glimmerless eyes conveyed the sadness thrown upon him. Going limp into the strong arms, Yuki waited, expecting a ridiculous answer.

Chapter 117:

Kyou paused for a second, his entire body frozen in place, as he contemplated with his feelings; without getting angry for once. However, he couldn't stop from exploding, he hadn't in so long, and everything was just getting to be way too much. " WHY AM I DOING THIS?!!!!"

His crimson eyes were wild with repressed rage and he screamed, tears forming at the corner, just barely threatening to fall." Since when do you have any right to accuse me of doing anything when I have been put through hell and back because of you?!!" He knew the other would take that wrong, but he could not take it back anymore. He couldn't hold back the lone tear that trailed down his cheeks, the first to fall in years. He was now open, completely vulnerable, and shivered from the thought.
