Yoh's house


Ren sat next to Yoh, who was lying unconscious on the bed. Please be alright. He thought again. You are my best friend and the only one who believes in me. Ren didn't believe he had any other feelings for Yoh except friendship but he wasn't going to hurt Yoh's feelings by telling him so.

Slowly Yoh opened his eyes. "Ren." He groaned. "Are you alright?" Yoh focused his eyes on Ren and smiled. "Where's Horo?" He asked.

Ren laughed. "Stop asking questions. I'm fine. Horo's probably still outside crying." At the last thing he felt guilty. He had punched Horo in the face because Horo had hurt Yoh but he knew that he didn't have to be so mean about it.

Yoh sat up. "I have to talk to Horo." Ren roughly pushed him back down. Yoh's stomach grumbled. "At least let me go get some food." Ren stood up.

"I'll get it." Ren said, Yoh laughed. "You are in no shape to do anything. Stay here and I'll get you what you need." Yoh smiled at him. "Don't get any thoughts in that weird little head of yours; I'm only doing it because it's my fault you got hurt." Ren walked out of the room and proceeded into the kitchen.

Horohoro was sitting in the kitchen. He heard the door open and saw the last person he expected to see. Ren. "I'm sorry." Horo muttered, only half meaning it. He was sorry that he hurt Ren's feeling but wasn't in the fact that he hurt Yoh.

Ren ignored him and proceeded in getting food for Yoh. "Do you love him?" Horo asked. Ren turned around and glared at Horo. "If I knew the answer to that what makes you think I would tell you?" Ren collected the food and left.

Why is Ren is mad at me? Horo thought. And again the only answer he could think of was Yoh. Horo sat back down at the table and continued constructing a way to have Ren for his own.

Yoh started getting better, it was a powerful blast but he had worst and in about 5 hours he was able to do whatever he wanted, as long as Ren didn't catch him. The next day Yoh woke up to find an exhausted Ren curled up next him, his purple locks down and over his face. Yoh gently brushed them out of his face. He looks so peaceful and innocent. Yoh thought kindly. At that moment the phone rang waking up Ren with a start, who looked at Yoh carefully then tied his hair up so it wasn't in his way.

They went downstairs and Yoh answered the phone. Soon Horo was down as well, wanting to know who it was. This is how the call went.

"Hello?" Yoh asked.

"Yoh! Why haven't you called me?" The voice on the other end yelled.

"Anna?" Yoh asked nervously.

"Yes, you idiot! So why haven't you called!" Anna yelled.

"I didn't think you would like me to call you after what happened between us."

"You said we would always be friends." Anna said gently.

"And we are. I just thought you might want some time to yourself."

"Come here now!"

"What?"

"Your grandparents want to speak to you. And I want to see you. So come here now." Anna screamed down the phone and hanged up.

Yoh put the phone down in a daze. "I have to leave." He said more to himself then to anyone else. Horo smiled, it worked out perfectly. One phone call to Yoh's family saying that Yoh was gay was all it took.

Ren looked at Yoh then at Horo then back to Yoh. "When are you going?" He asked.

"Straight away." Yoh said then looked at Ren and Horo. "Will you guys be alright by yourselves for a couple of days or so?" He asked nervously, he didn't want to leave Ren but he knew his grandparents wouldn't want him there.

Horo flung his arm around Ren's shoulder. "Of course. It's not like we haven't been left alone before, we are responsible teenagers, and we can look after your house." Horo said happily.

Yoh shrugged and walked to his room to pack. Ren pushed Horo away and followed him. "Are you well enough to go?" Yoh shrugged and kept packing. Ren closed the door roughly to make Yoh look at him. When Yoh turned around Ren saw that he was crying. "Why?" Ren asked.

"Knowing my grandparents they'll make me stay with them and marry Anna. And I don't want to do that." Yoh mumbled. "I don't want to leave you alone with Horo." Yoh said quietly afterwards bur Ren heard him.

Ren walked over to him. "I can look after myself." Ren said smugly. Yoh nodded, he turned around and continued packing. Ren just watched him quietly. When Yoh was finished he looked at Ren again and smiled although he was still crying softly.

Yoh stepped closer to Ren who stood still guessing what would come next. Yoh slipped his arms around Ren's waist carefully trying not to do it too quickly and make Ren back away. Yoh looked deeply into Ren's eyes trying to remember how they looked. He slowly pulled Ren closer to him so their bodies were close to each other, Ren didn't react to anything that Yoh was doing, and he just let Yoh continue. "Can I kiss you?" Yoh whispered. Ren looked down at the floor, he couldn't see the harm in it, if Yoh was doing it forcefully Ren would have slapped him but since he asked. Ren nodded slowly.

Yoh leaned close to Ren and could feel his slow even breaths tickle his face. Yoh smiled and leaned into Ren, gently pressing their lips together. The sensation that ran through Yoh's body was one of enjoyment and relief. However he felt like he wanted to try and deepen the kiss but he knew that if he tried that Ren would simply pull away. Yoh broke off the kiss and smiled, my first kiss was with Ren. He thought happily. Yoh dropped his arms away from Ren; he turned, picked up his bag then left.

Ren was left standing there absolutely shocked. He touched his lips softly, it wasn't his first kiss but it was his first with another boy even though he didn't respond to it, he still felt it was special. Ren walked to the front door to find Horo apologising to Yoh who nodded. However he saw that they were glaring at each other. "Bye." Yoh said to them both and left. Horo closed the door behind him and turned to Ren.

Ren turned around and walked upstairs to his room. Great. He thought. I have to spend a week with Horo. He knew Yoh wouldn't be back for at least a week. Ren walked over to his window and sat on the window seat. Ren stared at complete nothingness subconsciously touching his lips. "Ren?" Ren turned around and saw Horo standing in the doorway.

"What do you want?" Ren asked roughly.

"I want to talk to you." Horo answered. "Can I come in?"

Ren grunted in response. He didn't care what Horo did, he turned his head away from him and continued looking out off the window. He felt Horo watching him and turned around to see Horo standing right behind him. "Is there something?"

"How do you feel towards me?" Horo blushed.

"I don't feel anything." Ren said simply.

Horo looked down. "What do I have to do to make you love me?"

Ren glared at his blue-haired friend. "Nothing."

"What does that mean? Do you love me?" Horo said hopefully.

Ren turned back to the window. "You will have to do nothing because I will never love you." At that he heard a muffled sob.

Horo felt like his heart had been ripped out. What Ren had said was a simple sentence but it felt like a lot more then that. It felt like his life air had been taken away; it felt like he was doomed to a life of misery, it felt like he would die. "Yoh." He growled. It was Asakura's fault.

Ren stared at him. "It has nothing to do with Yoh." Ren stated. "If it did I would have gone with him just to get away from you."

Horo grabbed Ren's hand. "I love you." He pleaded. "Please understand that I have to be with you." Ren tried to get his hand back, usually he would have been able to but Horo was in desperation which gives people more strength. "I have to!" Horo screamed at the Chinese shaman. Horo pulled Ren up to him and looked into his eyes, "Why won't you love me?"

Ren tried to get away. Horo managed to hold both of Ren's hands in one of his. Ren turned hid head away from Horo but Horo just used his other hand to grab Ren's chin and pull his face up to make eye contact. "Why won't you love me?" He repeated.

Ren glared at him. "I just don't. I never will! Now let me go!"

Horo took his hand away Ren's face. Ren tried to head butt him but missed. Horo placed his hand into his pocket and pulled out a piece of rope. Ren looked at him in utter confusion, What's he doing? Horo then let go of Ren's hands and pushed him to the floor, Horo turned Ren so he was belly down. Ren tried to fight back but Horo's desperation strength was still in effect. Horo sat on Ren and grabbed his arms and pulled them behind his back and tied his wrists together using the rope.

"I was hoping it wasn't going to come to this." Horo said sadly. He got of Ren and looked down at him sadly. "Why won't you accept me?" Ren turned around on the floor and looked up at Horo. "All I ever wanted was for you to love me. Is that so much to ask for?"

Ren tried to break free. Ren now started to panic, Horo had completely lost, he was tied up, Yoh was gone and he didn't know what Horo was going to do.

Horo noticed Ren's unease. "I was going to kill Yoh." Ren looked up suddenly. "And I still might if he ever comes back. All I care about at the moment is you."

Ren had an idea. "If you care about me you should want to make me happy. If that means that your in my life or not." Horo just looked at him. "If you love me you would want me to be happy."

Horo smiled. "I can make you happy. Just accept me, love me and we will be happy together."

"I can never be happy if you make me do that." Ren spat at him.

Horo sighed deeply. "Then I will have to make you happy if you want to be or not." Horo took out a knife and came towards Ren. "I will force you to love me!"

Ren kept struggling in his bounds. "No!" He screamed. Horo took out a piece of cloth and gagged Ren with it. Ren was so scared that he started crying, Horo looked at him in concern.

"I don't want to do this to you Ren." Horo looked at the knife he was holding. "But I have to. It's for your own good. Yoh has brainwashed you, I have to get rid of you."

Ren stared at Horo in disbelief. Then he started panicking, he tried to move away from him but in his frantic attempts to escape his head collided with the window seat. A sudden pain engulfed his head as images of what was around him started to blur and gradually darkness overcame his vision.
