Chapter 2
Kyo turned to his side. As he were to open his tired eyes, he realized he was no longer in that hole, but was tucked into his bed. He touched his face to check if any leeks had remained there, then slowly sighing in relief that there were none.
"Mmm...Don't move so much," a mysterious voice groaned behind him.
Cold chills went up and down Kyo's spine. He quickly looked back, his face turning a plethora of sickly colors. Before Kyo could escape, arms constricted him from doing so. It was almost like a boa had begun to squeeze the oxygen from his lungs, as he was dragged closer and closer. Soon he was face-to-face, lips almost touching one another. He wanted to scream, but nothing came out. His throat felt rather scratchy and dry, so instead he yelped in pure horror.
As the moment thickened, the sound of Kyo's heart beating faster and louder, Shigure peeked into the room.
"Aya-chan!" he hollered, beaming down at Ayame who cuddled ever so closely to a half-dead Kyo.
At that second, Kyo's heart seemed to stop. He stared up at him, reaching out with dilated eyes. He mouthed out words like tasukete or help, but Shigure simply gawked at the two, not being able to make out the words due to Kyo screaming every time Ayame nuzzled his body.
Kyo struggled in Ayame's embrace, doing whatever he can to crawl out of the bed. He clawed at the sheets and the floor, shaking Ayame a bit which woke him up.
"Ah, good morning 'Gure-kun." Ayame yawned, looking up at Shigure with a smile.
"You mean good afternoon, but never doubt a creative mind!" Shigure answered, grinning back.
They laughed together, Kyo on his back panting. Ayame released his arms from Kyo and sat up, whisking his long silver locks to his right shoulder, braiding it loosely. He looked at Kyo's semi-lifeless body.
"Oh, you're awake." He said still smiling.
To be continued! I'm still writing this chapter xD!
