CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE

In their bed, Omi held Nagi possessively. "What's wrong?" Nagi asked his young lover. Who didn't respond. The brunette crained his neck to look, tears threatened to fall from Omi's eyes. "What's wrong, Omi-koi?"

"We don't get a lot of time to spend together anymore, Nagi." he said, letting one fall. "I kind of wish that we were enimies again. That way we'd get more time together."

"We do get a lot of time together, Omi!" Nagi protested.

"Not enough." He countered, "When was the last time we went out, just the two of us? Without someone from our teams, or Akira's brother... or any one else." tears began to pour of his eyes.

Nagi smiled, he had thought of the perfect thing. "Wait here, I'll be back in a second." He untangled himself from Omi's grasp.

"Ah... okay." Omi said sitting up, watching his boyfriend race out of the room in only his boxers. He was shouting something.

Omi curled up on his side, waiting for Nagi to return. Without intention, he fell asleep.

Downstairs Nagi came rushing into the kitchen. Everyone was acting all serious, that is until sweet little Nagi came in in only his boxers. "I NEED HELP!"

"Yes, dear child. You do." Schuldig said, looking up and down Nagi's lean form.

"Shut up, Schuldig!" He yelled at the German. "I need help..." he paused to glare at the snickering German. "in planning something for me and Omi to do tomorrow."

Gatos grinned and said in unison with Farfello, "Take him out to kill pigeons."

"Woah, freaky." Nagi muttered before shaking his head. "No no no no!! He won't like that! Help me do something ROMANTIC!!"

Ran smiled, he was sixteen now, and turned around and scribbled something on a piece of paper. "Here." He handed it to Nagi.

The small brunette blushed brightly. "Oh..... my." he looked at Ran. "Are you the same Aya who was against us even kissing in public....?"

Bree jumped up and snatched the paper, Schuldig and Yohji leaning over his shoulders, "Whoo-hoooo... Hell, I'd enjoy this."

"Read it aloud!" Yohji said laughing.

"One: Take him to a nice place to eat. Two: Woo him. Three: Find a hotel. Four: Fuck his brains out."

When they looked back at Nagi, he was blushing so brightly, that it rivalled even Schuldig and Ran's hair. The boy had his hand to his forehead. "What, pretell, is romantic in that??"

"Hey, it worked for me." Ran said, with a grin.

"Remind me, never go anywhere with him." Nagi said, backing up slightly.

"When'd you get that tattooooo, Naggles?" Schuldig said, gesturing to the one that was showing just above his boxers.

"Ahhh, a while ago..." he said looking at the German, then to the fuming American.

"Lemme see!" the German man said whining loudly.

"No." Nagi said, "It hurt like a bitch to get, and I don't want one seeing it." the telekinetic grinned, "Awww, did little Naggles make SchuSchu feel... insignificant?"

Schuldig turned to the others, "Did he just offend me?"

Bree and Yohji shrugged their shoulders. "Whatever, lemme see it Naggie- waggie!!!"

"Can I just show you the picture? Not my flesh?" Nagi said, whining just as much as Schuldig. "I don't really want to 'bear everything' to everyone."

"No! I want to see the tat!" Schuldig whined, again.

Nagi held the front of his boxers up and pulled the side down, revealing a tattoo of Omi smiling. "There! Happy now?"

"Very." Schuldig said, while scanning Nagi's mind. Who, slammed up a barrier after he found the information he needed. "So. Omi-chan has one too? Only of you?"

Nagi's eyes turned red. "SCHULDIG!! You are a complete ASS!!"

Crawford coughed, and Nagi nodded his head.

"Excuse me, SCHULDIG YOU ARE A COMPLETE ASSHOLE PLUS THE ASS ITSELF!!!!" Nagi looked back to Crawford who flashed him a 'thumbs-up' sign before sipping his coffee.

Schuldig smiled, "You learn well." He motioned for Nagi to hug him.

Nagi did, but Schuldig had to ruin the moment by sneaking another peek at the tat. Which earned him a slap. Plus a telekinetic blast.

"Wow, you K.O.'ed Schuldig." Hacker mumbled; Rhelex's face was one of utter shock.

"Dearie, did you kill your friend?" He asked, edging closer to Nagi. When he didn't answer, Rhelex said, "I can get you help, you just say the word. Please say it."

Nagi stared at the red-head that was latched onto his arm, "Why? He deserved it, plus I didn't kill him. He's just knocked out."
