Tala sat up slightly and looked up, eyes blank. Bryan bent down and picked his bag up, lean body tense. "Where are you going?" The lavender haired Russian ran a hand through his hair. "I'll be with Rei. If I stayed I don't think Hiwatari would live." The other Russian nodded and sat back.
"Whatever. Sleep well." The redhead stretched back out on the couch and closed his eyes, smiling when he heard the door close. It had gone through enough abuse today. Minutes later he heard Kai's footsteps on the stairs and he sat up again, frowning. Normally Kai was silent.
"Kai?" The slate haired teen sank down into the armchair, mahogany eyes slightly distracted. "What?" Tala got to his feet and moved to stand in front of his friend. "What happened between you and Bry?" The redhead squinted slightly, certain he saw a light blush staining Kai's cheeks. "Nothing. Where did he go?"
Tala yawned before answering. "To stay the night with Rei." He smirked at the look of shock that flashed across Kai's face

Bryan dug the key he had taken off Rei's key ring out of his pocket and opened the door. He dropped his bag to the floor and slipped his shoes off before closing and locking the door. Setting the key on a small table he continued to the bedroom, long fingers slowly undoing the buttons of his shirt.
He dropped his shirt to the floor and slipped under the covers, spooning Rei. The neko-jin rolled over and snuggled closer, nose brushing against Bryan's chest. He placed a light kiss on the top of Rei's head and draped an arm over his waist. Rei's purring continued and he sleepily pulled the blankets higher. He was glad that someone was willing to sleep with him.
If Kai wasn't available Bryan was just as good. He whimpered slightly, a slight smile appearing when he felt Bryan pull him closer. The only thing that would make his sleep perfect was if Kai was on the other side. "I love you." Bryan's body tensed and Rei flinched, afraid that he had driven Bryan away to.
Bryan gently tipped Rei's head up, moonlight eyes gentle. He placed a light kiss on the younger teen's slightly parted lips, tongue brushing over his lower lip. "Go to sleep." The room was silent for several seconds before Rei broke it. "Bry?"
The Russian sighed and when he spoke his accented voice was filled with loving and a slight amount of teasing. "You worry far too much. I love you as much as humanly possible, and I have for the past three years. Now relax and sleep." Bryan's hand started tracing circles on Rei's lower back and he smiled as he felt the neko-jin begin to relax.
Within minutes they were both asleep.
-------
Kai slowly opened the door and nearly tripped over something in the middle of the floor. He kicked it and when it gave slightly he realized it was Bryan's bag. Stepping over it he dropped his coat onto the chair and silently made his way to the bedroom.
The thick curtains that covered the windows were open, allowing the light from the crescent moon to wash over the room. Even though he knew what was going to greet him, he was still shocked.
Bryan and Rei looked utterly content. Rei's head rested on Bryan's chest and Bryan's arm was draped over Rei's shoulders. The blankets were pushed down to the foot of the bed, exposing the fact that one of Rei's legs were thrown over the Russian's.
Kai swallowed, mahogany eyes sad. He ran a hand through his hair. "I've caused both of you so much pain. Even after all they taught us in the Abbey about watching people, I never noticed how either of you felt about me."
He slipped off his shirt and shoes and moved to the side of the bed. He curled around Rei and placed a light kiss on the back of his neck. The slate haired teen closed his eyes and remembered when he and Rei had bought the bed.
The neko-jin had insisted on getting a bed big enough for at least four people and now, Kai finally realized why. He sat up slightly, only to be confronted by moonlight eyes. Bryan didn't move any and his eyes were hooded slightly. "It's good to see that you've managed to forgive him."
Kai shrugged and draped an arm over Rei's waist, his hand brushing against Bryan's stomach. The other Russian smiled slightly before his eyes slid shut. Kai basked in the heat of the room and drifted off to sleep, lulled by Bryan and Rei's soft breathing.
-------
Rei slowly came awake, warm even though he could feel the blankets at the foot of his bed. He moved closer to Bryan, and was unable to move too far. He cracked one eye open to see a second arm around his waist, the long fingers brushing lightly against Bryan's stomach.
He carefully rolled over under the arm, golden eyes widening in shock. Kai was deeply asleep, and completely relaxed. With a content purr he curled against Kai and smiled when he felt Bryan move closer. Rei slowly fell back asleep, filled with the feeling that their relationship might actually work out.
------
Kai sat up, wondering why the room felt so empty. The bed next to him was empty and one of the dresser drawers was half hanging out. Soft laughter reached his ears and he smiled before slipping out of the bed. He quickly changed into a pair of grey pants and a black shirt
When he entered the living room Rei was sprawled out on the floor, wearing a pair of navy pants and a black tank top. The neko-jin flashed a brilliant smile at his lover, golden eyes bright as he slowly sat up. "Morning Kai."
A plump strawberry flew through the air and landed in Rei's lap. Kai arched an eyebrow and Rei shrugged before eating the fruit. A second fruit followed the first. Kai's reflexes were the only thing that kept the fruit from hitting him. He ate it, smiling when he saw Rei get to his feet, golden eyes confused.
"Okay Bry, you have a question to answer." The Russian stepped into the doorway, a slight smirk curling his lips. He was wearing nothing but a pair of black pants that clung. "Okay." The neko-jin folded his arms across his chest. "How did you know where Kai was standing? You never looked out here."
The raven-haired teen was surprised when both Russians answered his question. "The Abbey." Bryan's eyes glazed over slightly and an almost imperceptible shiver ran through Kai's lean body. The neko-jin making up his mind stood straighter and pointed at the couch. "Sit, both of you."
The two Russians exchanged an amused look before they sat down. Rei stood in front of them, golden eyes serious. "I don't want either of you to say anything." The two teens nodded. "I love both of you. I will not tolerate fights between you."
Bryan shrugged, silver eyes lighting up. "I think we can do that." With lightning quick speed he grabbed the neko-jin and pulled. Rei found himself sprawled over the two Russians. A blush crept over the bridge of his nose and his cheeks as Kai's hands slip under the back of his shirt.
The lavender haired Russian nuzzled the neko-jin's neck. "Kai and I will just have to find something else to occupy our time with." Rei shuddered when he felt Kai nip at his shoulder. Bryan's hands joined Kai's and Rei allowed them to carry him to the bedroom.
-----
The sound of knocking rang through the apartment and Kai slipped out of the bed, taking the sheet with him. Rei and Bryan were curled together, looking peaceful. Kai smiled and pulled the sheet closer, not wanting to trip on it. The living room was half lit, the floor lamp revealing the shirts that had been discarded earlier.
"I know you're home Kai. Open the damn door already." Kai cursed under his breath, not really wanting to deal with Tala at this moment. The minute the redhead saw him he would know exactly what had happened. He yanked the door open, mahogany eyes blazing. "What?"
Tala frowned, blue eyes filled with sadness. "I realized that I needed to apologize." He gently brushed his fingers across Kai's cheek. "I still forget that you can be just as easily hurt as anyone else. I was so used to you being emotionless that I just kept talking without thinking about you. And for that I'm sorry."
Kai stared at his friend, shocked. Never in all the time since he had known Tala had the other Russian ever apologized. "Are you sure you're feeling okay? You just apologized." The redhead frowned at Kai. "Dammit Kai. Stop it. I'm trying to be serious. I treated you like shit."
The slate haired Russian smirked. "I appreciate it Tala, but right now I don't care. I'm tired and it's early." Tala folded his arms across his chest, eyes drifting down to where the sheet Kai was wearing was slipping from his grasp. "Call me if the three of you ever get bored."
Tala stalked down the hall, mumbling under his breath. Kai closed the door and locked it again before heading back to the room. He just wanted to go back to sleep. The sheet slipped from his hips as he slipped back into the bed and curled against Rei. Strong fingers closed around his bicep and pulled slightly.
Kai raised himself to one elbow, meeting silver eyes. Bryan relinquished his grip and ghosted his thumb across the other teen's lower lip. "I'm forced to agree with Tala. I also acted like an ass. I went through the same hell you did. It wasn't fair of me to act like that."
The shorter Russian pressed a kiss on Bryan's thumb. "I accept." He leaned forward and kissed Bryan, mahogany eyes bright. They settled back down next to Rei, knowing that everything would be fine later in the day.
