Schuldig was up at 4:00a.m sitting in the kitchen.He had woken up to check on Farfello because he had had a very disturbing nightmare.

Farfello's room was empty, his bed unmade, a sign that Farfello had gone to sleep but must have gotten up.Schuldig went to Crawford's room hoping with all his heart not to find Farfello sleeping with Brad.He didn't know why that should bother him but it did.To his relief Crawford was sound asleep, by himself, in bed.

Schuldig woke up Crawford and told him that Farfello was gone, Crawford had replied that it had happened before and Farfello would show up before dawn.It wasn't dawn yet...but he had been missing at least four hours..

Schuldig slammed his mug down on the table and ran trembling fingers through his hair.But he realized that his feeling had somehow altered since then.He thought of Farfello as...more than a friend?NO..He could never like me like that.He and I are both heartless killers.

Picking up his mug once more he took a small sip and sighed, now fully woken up.Schuldig stood and walked to the huge living room.He flopped onto a large leather couch and turned on the tv.Nothing on at this hour but infomercials -_-.He relaxed slightly on the couch and fell into a kind of trance, watching the flickering tv screen in the darkness of the house. ****

Farfello stumbled into another tree and yelled a curse to the rain.Wincing, he fell to his knees and held his injured shoulder.He wanted so bad to lie down.. to rest...But he knew that if he lay down now that he would more than likely die.

Jei blinked with wide eyes as he realized he was thinking about the arrogant redhead....Schuldig..

Farfello put his palms over his ears and yelled again.

After a minute he took his palms away.Blinking through the darkness he crawled a little ways towards the small lights ahead.Feeling around a bit blindly he avoided another tree and stood.He was on a lawn...The trees were now behind him..

In front of him, a massive mansion stood looming.The rain had begun to lighten..But through the outside of the mansion had lanterns covering the windows and doors.Farfello walked to the door and cursed as the door knob merely turned halfway.

He wondered and looked around.The shadowy lawn to his right had a light showing through a large glass window.Farfello walked over and peered through the window.He stopped a moment dumbstruck then smiled.Was Schuldig actually waiting for him?No....just up late or..early.He thought as he looked up at the distant sun peeking over the trees.He knocked lightly on the window, once ,twice, and still the figure on the couch did not stir..

Jei walked to the main door and jarred te doork knob once more.Growling he slammed himself full force into the door and it burst open.As he slowly opened his eye he heard the noise he had made echoing in the dark mansion.

He stepped inside, eye not yet adjusted.A dagger was pressed to his throat."Who is this mouse that has snuck into the cobra's lair?.."Schuldig whispered in his ear.

Farfello smirked and pressed his throat slightly against the dagger."Its me you fool.Is that greeting really costumary for your partner?"

Arms rapped around his waist from behind.Farfello shivered,"Where were you?"Schuldig's voice questioned in his ear.

Farfello put his hands over Schuldig's and leaned his head back onto his shoulder,"I took a walk."

Gently he slipped Schuldig's hands off his aching ribs.But Schuldig's hands instantly reappeared to probe at his side and run fingers over his bandaged chest.

Farfello let out a quiet hiss of pain and leaned back further, closing his eye.

Schuldig hooked his leg around Farfello's.Farfello fell back and Schuldig swept him up into his arms.

"W-what are you doing?"Farfello stuttered.(Most likely for the first time in his life :P)

"Helping you to bed idiot."Schuldig answered, amusement unhiden in his voice.

A minute later Schuldig set him on the bed.Farfello blinked rapidly as the lights were switched on.Schuldig was slipping off his shirt.

"You got me wet."Schuldig said simply.

Farfello coughed and slipped under the covers, not bothering to take off his soaked pants."I'll go to sleep now."

"Fine..It can wait a few hours,I don't think you injured yourself too badly except for your ribs.."Schuldig shrugged and flicked back off the lights.Jei turned over in bed, the hall lights still on his back since the door wasn't shut.Schuldig stood in the doorway watching him a minute then turned and shut the door behind him.

The pondering Jei sat in the darkness for a minute, contemplating what had just happened..But the questions were but to a stop as his eyes closed against his will and he drifted to sleep. ***** ***Mwahhaha.... . hehhe I like this chapter.I couldn't write another chapter without putting a little action or something in it so forgive me if it was a bit sudden^_^***
