Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot and a couple of other things.

Thank you so much for the reviews and thank you to the person who pointed out the word I missed. I'll edit that another time because I can't at the moment. I'm not on my computer, I'm on my laptop.

Before I start typing, I'd like to share something interesting with you all…I just had Astronaut's ice cream. It's so weird, sort of like marshmallows. Anyways, on with the story!

Something else that I should tell you is that you'll be surprised when you read this chapter. Only this chapter (And maybe a few others that I may type soon), will the story float away from Arisa.

Oh and I don't want this fic to be such a spoiler so we shall know Akito as the Akito we thought Akito was in the early books.

When You're Owned

Chapter Seven

Kyou yawned. He rubbed his eyes and placed his chin on the school desk. He was so tired, seeing as he had stayed up all night at the hospital with Arisa. She was skipping school today to look after her father. Kyou's heart started beating faster as he thought about her. He pictured her smile, her face and her kisses too. He shivered and gave out a tiny moan as his imagination expanded onwards. Kyou snapped out of his daze as Hana towered by his table,

"I know about it, don't worry," Kyou looked up at her, wondering what the heck she was talking about.

"About you and Uo-chan," She said in a lower volume. Kyou's eyebrows raised up high. He had nothing to say to her, well except for one thing,

"You will tell no one!" He said it a little too loud, causing several people to look at them. Yuki and Tohru were included. Kyou blushed furiously,

"WHY DON'T YA ALL MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!" Someone gave a shrug and everyone continued on with their things. Yuki however, was a curious little rat. The phrase is 'Curiosity killed the cat' , Rat boy.

"And why are you threatening Hanajima-san?" The Prince looked down at the cat with his hand on his hip. His face showed a tinge of resent. Kyou nearly hissed at him,

"None of your business," Hanajima simply looked at Yuki and shook her head. Slightly frightened, Yuki nodded his head and walked away. Kyou was just about to start shouting at her when he realized it was his own fault. He gave a 'hmpf' and looked away. Hana remained to stand by his table,

"I want you to know, she has high hopes when she falls in love. You should –"

"There is no need to tell me how much to love her. I love her more than you will ever know," Hana stood with her mouth partially open. She hadn't seen that coming. She would've felt the signals coming if he really meant what he said. His facial expression was convincing enough though. What if his feelings were so zealous that even someone with a gift lek hers could never detect?

"Wow, it's true then. One can never predict a human's reaction," As she walked away, Kyou whispered to himself as he fingered his beads,

"Who says I'm human?"

It's so cold. I can't feel my legs. Just the pain. Where am I?

My back stings, what's there? Why does my back burn? And this wetness…is it my blood?

My beads are…on my wrist. Then what has gone wrong? This room, it looks so, so familiar.

"Oh, I thought you weren't going to come," Arisa lowered her feet from the spare chair and beckoned Kyou to sit by her. Kyou took her hand as he lowered down onto the seat. Arisa caressed his lips with her own, nibbling his lower lip. Kyou moaned and moved closer, nearly rapping his arms around her. He backed away, realizing the danger,

"Why won't you hold me?" Kyou bit his lip. This was the hardest thing he could ever do. He loved Arisa with all his heart and if he lost her…he would simply shatter into pieces. Was he willing to take the risk? Yes, he was but he had to ask her something,

"Arisa, do you love me so?" Arisa nodded, "Do you love me and will accept me in anyway I'am?" Tears streamed down Kyou's face but before they reached his chin, Arisa wiped them out,

"I love you so," Kyou gulped in a sob,

"Then hug me and don't look away afterwards," What he had said made her hesitate. What was going to happen?

"Hug me…" Kyou's throat was dry. He waited with his closed eyes, for her arms to snake around his waist. Arisa shook her head. Kyou still remained with his eyes closed. His breathing had become fast and sharp, his hands gripping the chair. No, she wasn't going to do it. She hadn't seen him yet and she had already rejected him. A frozen dagger stabbed through his heart. Kyou stood up and exited the room with staggering feet. Only then did Arisa notice the blood oozing from his shirt collar.

"Kyou!" She called after him but he was already out in the corridor. Arisa chased after him but was unsuccessful in finding him. She walked out the building and sat down on a bench in the hospital garden. She sat, with her face in her hands. She felt a arm snake around her shoulder. It was warm. It had to be Kyou. She leaned her head against his warm body and sighed. He was hugging her, finally.

But she looked up to find herself face-to-face with a young teenage boy. He was probably near her age. His hair and face seemed so soft but there was a certain wickedness about his eyes. He gave her what seemed like a comforting smile but all Arisa could do was blink. A complete stranger, hugging her body. All she did was sit and blink at him.

But then it seemed like all trace of sweetness disappeared from his face. His complexion grew somewhat darker and his lips curved into a thin cutting simper,

"I'm a friend of Kai's," He chuckled nonchalantly as Arisa started to pale,

"If you ever see him again, tell him Akito's yearning for him to call."

Hehe.
