"Awakening"
By: Zephel-sama
Ken's POV
It had been a week now, and Omi still had not woken. I was almost always by
his side. We hadn't had a mission since that fateful night, and Aya and Yohji were very understanding. After I told them how I felt about Omi, my Angel, they told me about their own relationship, how they had discovered how each of them felt, how everything had come out. How they fell in love. They were very open and supporting. Encouraging me to confess when
the time was right, whenever that would be. I reached out and grabbed Omi's hand gently as I began to speak...
"Angel, when are you going to wake up? When will I be able to tell you how much I care?"
I gently squeezed his hand. Looking at the clock I sigh...
"Almost time to go Angel… I'll see you tomorrow, ne?"
I gave his hand one last little squeeze. Rising from my chair, I was about to
let go when I felt him move! My heart jumped as I saw him begin to stir. He tossed and turned slightly and I heard him murmur "Angel". Hearing him say my nickname for him, my heart began to race and I gasped!
-Doki, doki, doki!-(1)
He continued to stir and then slowly he began to wake. His cerulean blue eyes opened blearily, closing again at the harsh light after the long darkness. After a few seconds Omi's eyes blinked open, and our eyes locked. I could not hold back any longer, I reached down and pulled Omi into my arms, hugging him to me like a lifeline.
Tears flowed unchecked down my cheeks.

Omi's POV
"Ken-kun… what happened? Where am I? Where are Aya-kun and Yohji-kun?"
I asked meekly as Ken embraced me. Looking up I saw his chocolate brown eyes fill with tears. I moved and wrap my arms around Ken. His embrace was warm and comfortable and I could feel his tears on my cheek. Then he moved away, breaking the embrace. I felt cold.
"I'll be right back Omi, I'm getting the Doctor."
I heard him call as he walked out of the door. I was alone again... I looked
around the room and saw the rainbow of flowers. Gasping at their beauty, I stared in awe at the bouquets.
*Mixed zinnias, pink and peach roses, pear blossom mixed with freesia, balm and
yarrows mixed together. There were several small arrangements of blue saliva and a final bouquet of jonquil, iceland moss and purple violets.
At my bedside I notice another arrangement, one done with great care and love.
It was displayed in a crystal basket a bouquet of...
*Freesia and gentian, a moss rosebud and myrtle, purple violets, columbine,
weigelia, honeysuckle, narcissus and gardenia surrounded by white heather.
The beauty of the flowers overwhelmed me, but not as much as the messages they
sent, especially the bedside arrangement. I felt truly loved and cared for, something I had missed. I could feel the tears beginning to fall as I looked for a card in the bedside arrangement, but without success! Just then, I looked up from my search to see Ken walk in followed by a Doctor and, to my surprise, Aya and Yohji. Using the back of my hand to dry the tears from my face. I watched as Ken came to sit beside me on the bed. He was close enough to make me feel safe, yet far enough away to give me my own space. The Doctor checked me over as my friends... my family watched over me. I was relieved when he said I could go home, but I couldn't remember what had happened. [Warning, warning!! This is SERIOUSLY unrealistic _ A.N. {authors note} this is unrealistic. A hospital would normally keep a person for one more night for observation. Also after coming out of a coma a person would be weaken, they would have to be help with most everything they do. For the sake of this fic I took creative licence and did away with that reality... gomen nasai! Please keep in mind this is… inaccurate, but for the sake of Ken x Omi fans I'm making Omi better quickly.]

The ride home was quiet. Yohji drove, Aya was up front with him and I sat in the
back with Ken, who allowed me to rest my head on his shoulder. I felt so peaceful and content as I closed my eyes and listened to him breath. Every once and awhile I would open my eyes and see Yohji checking his mirror to see us. I would then look up to Ken, seeing him turn crimson red, I snuggled closer. When we arrived at the "Koneko no Sumu Ie" I heard Yohji suggest that Ken take me to my room. The brown haired assassin blushed even more and I could swear that both Aya and Yohji had giggled.
(Aya doesn't giggle... does he even know how...? Apparently so…)
My head was still swimming so I didn't pay the eldest assassins any mind, as Ken began to walk me upstairs.
_______________________________________________________________________
Yohji's POV
I watched as the youngest members of our little group made their way upstairs, I turned to my red-headed lover.
"Do you think Ken will do or say anything tonight?!"
I walked over to the red-head pulling him into my tight embrace. I began to
play with one of the flaming strands of crimson hair that framed his face. His only response to me was that he didn't know, but that Ken would do it when the time was right. I nodded as I looked at the flowers we had brought home from the hospital, my eyes falling on one arrangement in particular.
"Do you remember when Ken asked you to help with that "Tussie-Mess thingy?"
He nodded and corrected me, calling it a 'Tussie-Mussie' and said it dealt
with Victorian Flower Arrangements. I didn't care, flower arrangements were not my strange point. Aya on the other hand was an artist, though he'd never admit it, and that's what I loved about him.
"Do you think Omiitachi will get the message? You know how much trouble it was
for Ken to tell us how he felt for Chibi."
"I don't know… if it is meant to be, it will just happen... like it did for you and me Yo-tan!"
Aya never talked much even after we started being together, but when he did it
was important. I knew he was right and I hugged him closer to myself. I lifted his alabaster chin so I could gaze into his amethyst eyes and kissed him on his soft warm lips.

Flowers and their meanings: or 'Tussie-Mussie'

Mixed Zinnias - "Thoughts of absent friends"

Pink and Peach roses - "Sympathy"

Pear Blossom - "Health + Hope"

Yarrows - "Healing"

Blue Saliva - "I think of you!"

Jonquil (Daffodil) - "Violet Sympathy + Desire Sympathy"

Purple Violets - "You occupy my thoughts!"

-The message of these flowers is that of Sympathy and getting well. That the person, in this case Omi, is missed and his friends wish him well. You will notice that Omi's Image flower is here also... it being Freesia! :)
Ken's arrangement:

Freesia and Gentian - Omi's and Ken's image flowers (Gomen nasai I was not able
to find what Ken's flower meant!)

Moss Rosebud and Myrtle - Together they are "A confession of Love" The Moss
rosebud is the "Confession" and the Myrtle is for "Love"

Purple Violets - "You occupy my thoughts"

Columbine - "I can not give thee up!, Resolve to win"

Weigelia - "Accept a faithful heart"

Honeysuckle - "Bonds of love, Generous and devoted affection"

Narcissus - "Stay as Sweet as you are!"

Gardenia - "You're Lovely, Secret Love"

White Heather - "Protection from Danger"

Displayed in a crystal basket - The crystal basket just adds to the overall elegance of the arrangement. If you have ever seen crystal in direct sunlight you would know that it gives off light in a prism effect, flooding the room with rainbows... even when the flowers are gone the beauty will always remain.
-The message of this arrangement is one of confession. Using both Ken's and Omi's image flowers to put the focus on whom and from the bouquet came. Omi received it so his first clue to the admirer was the other image flower. The combination of flowers talks of a secret love, one not willing to give up. Ken is trying to tell Omi how he feels... and also that he wants Omi to stay as he is "innocence" and that Ken wants to protect him!!!

"Confession"
By: Zephel-sama
Ken's POV
We reached Omi's door, opening it for him, I watch him walked in...
(Now there's a view I don't mind seeing!)
His hips swayed slightly as the youth gracefully walked into the room. He had recovered amazingly, was yet again the image of life in itself; I couldn't help imagining his firm muscles rippling under his toned skin, and had to suppress the moan fighting to get passed my lips. It felt like the room I was following him into was at least 5° warmer than the last, and that the heat seemed to center around my groin area. I let out the breath I hadn't realized I was holding, as I watched him flip on the lights and walk over to his bed, motioning for me to join him. I closed the door behind me, using the short time when I was turned away to regain my composure, calm my madly beating heart and to take some deep breaths, stealing myself for what I was about to do. Blushing slightly I turned back to him, walking swiftly and almost tripping over my feet as I moved to the bed he was now sitting on. I sat down at the corner, resting my forearms on my thighs and wringing my hands nervously and gnawing slightly on my lower lip and staring at the floor. Finally I turned to him.
"Omi, can I talk to you?!"
I felt the weight on the bed shift as the little bishounen moved to sit next to me. My blush turned to burgundy and my heart began to beat violently in my chest again.
-Doki, doki, doki-
My chocolate brown eyes met his cerulean blue ones, and I froze, captivated by the face of that angel...
(My Angel)
I was so close to him… I wanted to tell him but I hadn't the voice!!!
_______________________________________________________________________
Omi's POV
Moments passed and neither of us moved. I couldn't stand it. I felt like I was on fire!
When I awoke this afternoon he had hugged me, he was crying, and I embraced him
back, feeling and tasting his salty tears. I felt safe in his embrace as I awoke from my dream. I didn't know how long I slept, but I remembered him. I was not sure if I had dreamt it or what, but he had called me "Angel" as he held me close. Then he left and I felt cold and lost... I wanted his embrace, I needed it back! While he was gone I looked around the room at all the flowers, then my gaze came to the arrangement beside my bed. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.
My mind came back to the present, and the slightly glazed look I had acquired disappeared, allowing my eyes to focus on Ken. His face was still beat red. I placed my hand on his chest, I could feel his heart racing... mine was too! I didn't know what was happening, but I felt right... this felt right... so I kissed him.
_________________________________________________________________
Ken's POV
Before I could even find my voice, his soft rose petal lips were upon mine. I was on fire and melting at the same time. He tasted so sweet, like cherry bubble gum. I wanted to believe that this was real, it felt so surreal, like in a dream, and yet… My dreams had never FELT so real. I pulled away from that kiss, that heart stopping kiss. It pained me to do so, I looked into his eyes and saw that he hurt too.
(It's now or never!)
Taking his hand into mine, I gazed into those eyes that trapped me so. My heart
was beating so fast I thought it would burst.
-Doki, doki, doki-
"Ano... Omi, I need to tell you something... Sore wa himitsu desu!"
I paused and tried to catch my breath, trying to stay calm...
"Ano... watashi... watashi wa..."
I could feel myself tremble, I swallowed hard... the rest rushed out in little
more then a whisper...
"I... IthinkI'vefallenforyou!! No,IknowIhave!!"
translation: "I... I think I've fallen for you!! No, I know I have!!"
I took a step back as I watch the angelic creature in front of me, ponder what
I just said. I watched as he looked up, and then he was in my arms, tears running from his pool blue eyes as he embraced me. His arms were warm and he laid his head on my chest. I held him gently and breathed in the scent of strawberry shampoo in his hair. He snuggled closer and I heard him sigh. Without looking up at me, he spoke through his tears...
"Ai shiteru Ken-kun, for so long…"
He whispered as he buried his face into my chest. Upon hearing his words my eyes filled with tears. It was a dream come true... I told him my feelings and they where returned. I grasped his chin lightly lifting his face so I could once again gaze into his eyes. As I brushed away a tear from your beautiful eyes...
(I'm in heaven, with my own private Tenshi)
"Angel you're beautiful!" I whispered.
"Ai shiteru, Angel! Is this what you... truly want...?! I knew I wanted this
when I first realized I loved you. I don't want to hurt you, Omi! Do you understand,ne."
When he answered I thought my heart would stop...!
"Hai! I wanted this too Kenken, but I wasn't sure what you would think of me. I didn't want to ruin what we had."
I paused..."Kenken" he called me "Kenken", Yohji gave me that nickname... I
always hated it. But when Omi said it, it had a nice ring to it.
"Kenken, I don't want this night to end, I want us to be together... I want you to... show me love."
"Nani... are you sure about this Angel?!"
I watched as he blushed and began to play with his shirt hem. Then he nodded his head lightly, moving from my grasp he looked to the floor.
"Angel this can hurt, you do know that?!"
I looked at him with concern, as he nodded again.
"Angel you should only do that with the person you love... have you ever…?"
I watched as he shook his head, then he looked up, your cerulean eyes pleading for my touch. I got up and walked to the the door, turning before I left. I froze, in his eyes I saw fear... he must have thought I was rejecting him!
"Don't worry Angel, I'll be right back. I need to get some things… if we are going to do this… I want to do this right!"
He smiled as I turned and walked from his room. Closing the door, I continued to my own room.
Japanese words:

"Ano" - "Umm"

"Sore wa himitsu desu!" - "It's a secret!"

"watashi wa" - "I"

"Ai shiteru"- "I love you. [stronger than just I love you, kinda like forever]"

"Tenshi"- "Angel"

"Nani" - "What?"
