I was looking through all of the stories I have to update tonight and this one looked like the most fun, so I'm doing it next. Well, I hope you all are satisified with all of my fics and I hope that I'm not repeating myself with my ideas (except that one I pointed out with the marriage and such). Enjoy!
honey bunny boo: Lazy. Do you know how crazy people would get if I was that lazy? I'm jealous... Glad you like what I've done with it so far. And I am forever updating "tomorrow". It seems that no matter how many days I go through tomorrow is always...there. Sigh, thanks for reviewing!
alpha2nd: yep, people get drunk when they drink on an empty stomach, well they get drunk either way if they drink enough, but it's easier to get drunk on an empty stomach...it's cuz there's nothing to absorb the alcohol...or something like that. And I have a feeling you didn't finish reviewing...or maybe you did...I dunno! Either way, thanks for doing it (reviewing that is)!
Eyes woke up with a groan, "What happened last night?" He thought, trying to sit up but was stopped by an arm slung over his chest...that wasn't his. Eyes looked next to him and saw red hair smushed into various directions, evidence of a rough night. Eyes tried to remember what happened but couldn't remember anything after ordering his wine, "Oh no. I didn't..." Eyes realized that both he and the redhead next to him were completely naked, "Yes, I did." Eyes sighed and moved the arm, wondering if Kousuke had enough common sense to realize that the pianist was drunk and comletely unaware of what he was doing last night. Eyes sat up and glanced back to Kousuke, who was still asleep and softly snoring, before heading to the bathroom to take a shower.
Kousuke woke up and noticed the lack of warmth that he had fallen asleep next to. He picked his head up and saw that, besides him, the bed was otherwise unoccupied. Kousuke figured that Eyes had woken up earlier, realized what happened, and took off. That was until he heard the shower turn off and the door unlock, "He stayed. He could have went home and taken a shower, but he stayed." Kousuke thought, happily. He definitely owed Kanone. But all happiness was lost when Eyes walked out of the bathroom and looked at him. Kousuke looked own, a little ashamed that he had gotten Eyes drunk and into bed, "Though technicaly, he's the one that ordered the wine." Kousuke tried to justify his actions but knew that he was the one that had led Eyes inside while he was aware that the other man was comletely unaware of what was happening.
"Good morning." Eyes greeted and then went to sit down on the bed, looking at Kousuke.
The fact that Eyes said anything at all suprised Kousuke, but when the words weren't cruel or sarcastic, the boy nearly had a heart attack. Eyes sitting down next to him was too much. He sat up and chuckled nervously, "Oh, hey, Eyes. Did you sleep well?" Kousuke asked, trying to avoid talking about last night...though that was pretty much impossible.
Eyes just shrugged slightly and looked away, "Should I say something?" He wondered. Of course he should, Kousuke was waiting for him to do so. The only problem was, Eyes didn't know what to say, pretty much because he didn't know what he was feeling. He didn't exactly regret last night, and he wasn't angry at Kousuke for taking advantage of him though he probably should have been.
Fortunately, Kousuke spoke, saving Eyes the trouble, "Listen, I'm sorry...about last night." Even though Kousuke wasn't sure if he should apologize, obviously he was sorry for what he did. But if Eyes didn't remember what happened perhaps it was better to just leave it alone.
But Eyes did remember what happened, though it was all a little fuzzy, "It's alright." He said, though he wasn't sure it was. Eyes stood up and walked to the door, ready to leave.
Kousuke wanted to say something, to stop him from leaving. He wanted more than anything for Eyes to stay and just come back to bed, but he knew that would never happen. Kousuke was greatful for that one night, as brief as it may have been. He wished he could go back to last night and just stay there. But hoping did nothing but disappoint him in the end. Even if he got his hopes up and wasn't let down right away, eventually there would be something to take away whatever was making him happy; that's how it always was. Kousuke sighed as he heard the door shut and layed back down, getting up was not something he had energy for right now...school could wait.
Eyes stayed outside the closed door for a second before turning and walking down the street, back towards home. He needed someone to talk to; he needed Kanone to talk to. Kanone was the only one that Eyes felt comfortable talking to about personal things. Kanone had even been the one to comfort him when he himself turned Eyes down. When Eyes reached the apartment complex he took the elevator all the way to the top and reached his door. He turned the key in the lock, only to find that the door was unlocked. He cautiously opened his door and made his way inside. He checked through the entire apartment before reaching his bedroom, and relaxed when he saw Kanone asleep in his bed. Eyes walked over and shook Kanone awake, "Kanone, wake up." he said softly, not wanting to alarm the sleeping man.
Kanone stirred slightly and opened his eyes to gaze upon his friend, "Hmmm? Oh, hello, Eyes. Did you just get home?" Eyes nodded and Kanone sat up and scooted over, making room for Eyes on the bed. As Eyes sat down, Kanone quickly glanced at the clock and smirked, 10 in the morning, "So...what did you two do last night? Were you with him all night?"
Eyes nodded again, "We went out to dinner."
Kanone smirked again, "Eyes, we both know that dinner doesn't take 12 hours." Kanone paused, "Though I suppose that depends on what you had for dessert." Kanone looked at Eyes knowingly.
Eyes sighed and nodded one more time, "It's not like I was aware of what was happening, though. I had a little bit to drink at dinner."
"And let me guess. You walked him home, kissed him at the door...and then woke up next to him this morning, naked and a little sore." Eyes blushed and looked away in shame. Kanone laughed at this, "Don't be embarrassed, Eyes. Did you at least stay until he woke up? Or did you just leave a note?"
"I took a shower when I first woke up and when I got out, he was awake. We talked for a mintue but then I left."
"What did you talk about?" Kanone asked, trying to get every last detail out of his friend; he had planned on the two of them hooking up.
"Nothing in particular. He did apologize, though. I told him it was okay and then left. He didn't say anything else." Eyes recalled, then looked to Kanone, "Should I have stayed and talked to him about it?"
Kanone thought about it and then nodded, "Most likely. But it'll be okay, it's not like you'll never see him again. You two will probably see each other later. You can talk to him then."
Eyes nodded and then looked up, "What do I say, though. I left earlier because I didn't know what to say to him."
"Well, that depends on how you feel. Do you like him?"
Eyes hesitated, "I...I don't really know. I feel so different about him than I do you, that's why I don't think it's love. I just don't know...it feels right somehow being around him. He makes me comfortable. Even more so than you do, no offense."
Kanone laughed, "None taken, Eyes. It's obvious you like him, so just tell him. Don't play games with Kousuke, it'll most likely just anger him, you know how he can be."
Eyes nodded and then smiled briefly at Kanone, the only person he ever let see him smile, "Thank you, Kanone." Kanonesmiled backand then yawned as Eyes stood up, "Sorry for waking you, you can go back to sleep if you'd like. I'll be out in the other room." Kanone nodded and layed back down as Eyes left the room, closing the door behind him. As soon as he closed one door he heard a knock on another. He crossed the room to open his door and reveal Kousuke, "Kousuke? What are you doing here?" Eyes regretted saying that at the hurt look on Kousuke's face and then moved aside, "Come in." Kousuke nodded and entered the penthouse, taking a seat on the couch and looking down at his hands.
Eyes sat down next to him and Kousuke shifted nervously. Eyes waited for him to speak and finally he did, "I didn't want to leave the situation like we did." Kousuke said, looking to Eyes, "I just wanted to make sure you weren't mad at me."
Eyes shook his head, "I'm not angry, Kousuke. I only left because I wasn't sure what else to say. But I've talked it over with Kanone..."
"You told Kanone about us?" Kousuke shouted, standing up. He was extremely angry that Eyes had run off only to tell Kanone of all people about what happened.
Eyes glared at Kousuke, "Of course I did. It was because of Kanone that we even went on that date, you should be thanking him. I tell Kanone everything, and I needed someone to talk to."
"Why didn't you just talk to me?" Kousuke asked, slightly hurt, but clamed down and took his seat next to Eyes.
"Because I needed to talk about you. I couldn't talk to you about you."
Kousuke smirked at the sentence and then got serious again, "Of course you can. You can talk to me about anything. And besides, didn't you go to Kanone when he turned you down?"
Eyes just stared at the other Blade Child, "How did you...?" Eyes knew that he never told anyone about it and he was certain that Kanone woldn't betray his trust like that.
Kousuke grinned, "I have my ways. But that's not the point. The next time you have a problem, just know that you can come to me, okay?" Eyes nodded and Kousuke continued, "So...what exactly did you have to talk to Kanone about?"
"I wasn't sure...how I felt about you." Eyes admitted, wondering if he should get this personal with Kousuke. He was pretty sure he could trust the other man, but not entirely confident, not like with Kanone; he knew he could trust Kanone.
"And...what did you decide?" Kousuke asked, a little hesitantly. He wasn't sure he wanted to hear the answer. Eyes looked away for a second and then turned back andkissed Kousuke. The latter stiffened for a second, but then relaxed into the familiar sensation. He sighed as Eyes scooted closer to him and pulled the redhead closer. Kousuke wrapped his arms around Eyes neck and they both continued on, completely unaware of the smirking Blade Child peering at them from the bedroom. Kanone retreated back into Eyes' bedroom and layed back down on his bed, sighing contently. Kousuke owed him big.
I actually think that's it for this fic. That's pretty much all I wanted to do with it. if there are any complaints, I guess I could do something, but you'd have to tell me what you wanted me to do with it. And just in case you didn't get it, Kousuke had asked Kanone to set him and Eyes up on a date because Kousuke knew Eyes would listen to Kanone; that's why Kanone started the whole bet thing. But Kousuke didn't know about the bet until Eyes told him about it, but after that he knew that Kanone had done it on purpose. Get it? Good. Review!
