Chapter 19

"I'm exhausted," Kyo complains dropping his weary body onto the bed and he sighs as Haru snuggles against him. He smirks as the cow pays special attention to his sensitive neck and says, "Maybe I should be gone more often." The younger teen's pout causes him to smile as he plays with the multi-colored hair. "I've missed you, too," he says glancing at the suitcase he still had to unpack. He sighs stretching and situates himself into a more comfortable position saying, "Haru, that's the only trip we'll have all semester. I wont be gone for long trips anymore. We had to go to that cook-a-thon to pass." The past two months had exhausted him and turned Haru into a needy moo-moo. "It's not fair," the cow complains and he hugs the lithe body closer saying, "You had Yuki to play with." The grays glare at him as Haru says, "Yuki's a cold bastard." Understanding enters his scarlet orbs and he gently kisses his lover before saying, "I'll have a talk with him." Shaking his head, Haru straddles him and says, "You can't, he'll be mad at me then." Rolling his eyes, Kyo props himself up on his elbows and states, "I don't care, I'm talking to him. I can't choose between you two." Greedy lips fall upon his neck and he holds onto the younger teen while soft moans of bliss seep through his lips.

Gazing out the window, Yuki frowns as he hears the neko's footsteps approaching and he turns to face the beautiful boy. "I don't love him," he explains as he tugs the kitten into a hug and Kyo says, "I know that. Try to be nicer to him, though. As much as I love him, he's too clinging when he's not shown some attention at least every other day." Playfully he nips the neko's lower lip and reluctantly says, "I'll try, but it's hard when all I've ever seen him as is a younger cousin." Nodding Kyo situates himself between Yuki's legs and leans back against the teen's chest asking, "Did you miss me at all?" Sighing he hugs Kyo's warm body closer craving his fire and nonchalantly states, "Two weeks really is too long."

Sighing in content as the sunlight warms his form, Kyo tilts his head so he can study the rat's beautiful face. He sighs when the boy's violet orbs darken and he asks, "Did I miss something?" Shrugging Yuki hands him the worn note and says, "We've been debating since Haru found it whether or not to give it to you." He takes the note and casually glances over it. "I don't care anymore. He's dead to me. Speaking of dead, how is Akito?" He feels the teen tense and gazes up at him in concern while his fingers gently brush his cheek. "Let's not talk about him, okay," Yuki asks softly, his voice barely audible even to Kyo's sensitive ears, and he smiles nodding as he nuzzles his cheek against the teen's neck. "Where's Tohru, I haven't seen her since I left for my trip?" Sighing the teen tilts his head up and kisses him harshly before saying, " She doesn't live here anymore." Angrily he stares into the rat's calm eyes and demands, "Why the hell not?" He rises to his feet and glares down at Yuki as the boy closes his eyes while concentrating on his breathing.

"She left, okay? She talked to Akito and left. I don't know why, but she lives with Kana and her children," he states looking at the teen evenly and he pushes Kyo away when he tries to hug him. "What the hell is your problem," the neko demands and he smirks as he walks away. "Damn it, I wasn't done talking to you!" He nods while glancing over his shoulder and he says, "I was, therefore I'm leaving." He stares into Kyo's wild eyes when the neko whips him around to face him. "I hate you," the neko hisses and passionately he kisses the golden cat's pink lips before saying, "I know, and I hate you, too." He leans against the wall when Kyo lifts him up and wraps his legs around the teen's waist.

Breathless whimpers escape Kyo as he nibbles on the pretty kitty's ears and he hears the low whimpers mixed with purrs that his lover makes as he blows his warm breath against his neck. "Is it always going to be like this between us," the orange top asks and he shuts the boy up with a heated kiss. "I like us like this," he admits grinding against Kyo's body and he gasps as the neko bites down near his collarbone as the boy rocks them. "Relax, I wont drop you," his neko says and he nods tugging Kyo's shirt off as the kitty blushes. "It's way too easy to make you blush," he comments as he wiggles his hips and the cat retorts, "Shut up, damn rat!" Smirking he clings to Kyo's neck with one arm as he plays with the boy's chest. "Such heated words from a little, gentle kitten," he teases as the neko carries him into the bedroom and lays him on the bed with a hungry smile. "I'm not little," his kitten argues and he smirks saying, "I know some parts of you aren't little." The teen's blush grows darker and he laps at one nipple with lazy strokes of his tongue.

Ruby eyes narrow in suspicion when Yuki winces as he tries to remove the beautiful prince's shirt. "Yuki, what's wrong," he inquires playing with the rat's silky hair and shaking his head Yuki responds, "It's nothing. Haru's probably looking for us by now." Tugging on his t-shirt, he stands and offers his hand to Yuki. "I do love you," he states gently brushing his fingers down the rat's back and he frowns when his prince draws in a sharp breath. "Tell me what happened or I'll go and ask Akito myself," he threatens wrapping his arms securely around Yuki's waist and lowering his head the teen says, "Akito punished me. He said I didn't deserve you and that I should be grateful that he allows us to be together."

Slipping his arms around Kyo's shoulders, Haru kisses the neko's cheek and says, "Akito wants to speak to you later." Sighing he slips to the seat opposite Kyo and leans forward to capture the orange head's lips. "Sure, whatever," he mummers glancing at Yuki who stands casually next to the window and he rolls his eyes at the deadly glare he receives. "You have to talk," he states and an ivory hand slaps him forcing him to lunge at the perfect prince. "Kyo, stop!" They stare up at Haru and Kyo gasps when Yuki gropes him saying, "We're not finished yet, Haru. Give us a few more minutes." Blinking in confusion, Haru shrugs and watches Yuki's nails rake down Kyo's back.

Kyo's breath hitches and he craves more of the neko's delicious noises as the kitten tugs on his pants. "Admit it, you like being bottom," Yuki teases and he grins when Kyo thrusts up against him. "I love you," the neko says breathlessly while squirming out of his cargos and he frowns playing with the waistband on Kyo's boxers. "What are these from," Yuki demands glaring down at Kyo and the boy pouts beneath his trembling hands. "Black gave me those, I think," the neko says uncertainly as he glances at the bruises on his hips. "I gave him those, got a problem with that," Haru states lounging on a chair with his legs spread open and smirking he adds, "I wanted some so I rode to his hotel and tied him up before I took him. I guess I got carried away when I grabbed him. White's constant complaining got to me. You have no idea how hot he looks with lips bruised and hickeys all over his chest. I'd screw him anywhere."

Licking his lips, he slides onto Kyo's lithe body and pushes Yuki away. "You liked it, didn't you? You're a kinky kitty," Haru says while Kyo tugs roughly on his hair turning him on even more and he nips the teen's delicious, sexy throat. "Glad to know at least one of us was satisfied," the rat complains then rolls his eyes when the neko only arches his back in pleasure as Haru begins nibbling his way down the teen's chest. He leans closer when Kyo calls for him and he grins when the neko possessively claims his lips. A strangled moan escapes Kyo when Haru swallows his manhood and Yuki adds to the neko's pleasure giving him a nice sized hickey. He leans back watching the neko reach release and Haru sloppily kisses the breathless kitty before curling up beside him. "God, that was great," Kyo whispers in awe knowing that Black like praise and he purrs when he squished between Haru and Yuki.

"Kyo, why are you naked," an innocent, freshly awoken White asks and the neko blushes shifting to cover his naked state with Yuki's body while saying, "Black paid me another visit." Smiling Haru brushes his fingers over the hickey that the rat had left saying, " I guess you're officially claimed now." Tiredly Yuki rubs his eyes and pulls the covers up while shivers wrack his body. "We can go out to lunch then I'll fix everyone dinner. I'm sure Kisa wouldn't mind tagging along with us," Kyo states gazing down fondly at the rat as he burrows into the blankets leaving the neko's chest bare. "Why would Kisa go with," the ox asks playing with his orange hair that he's seriously considering cutting now that everyone has to touch it, including the librarian at the school, and he shrugs saying, "She asked me if I'd take her into town." Kissing Kyo, Haru can't help but smile.

Its amazing how none of them had noticed how the tiger had matured into a beautiful young lady until she led them into a cosmetic store. Teenage boys stares at her with that hungry look in their eyes and they smile knowingly when Kisa dismisses the attention casually. She pushes her shoulder length hair behind her ears and stares in confusion at all the colors. They finally leave after some of Kyo's complaints and she had purchased some items. Innocently she tugs the kitten aside.

"Kyo, how do you know when you're ready to…you know," she asks blushing and his jaw drops as he stares at the girl. "Maybe you should ask Haru or Yuki," he states weakly, his eyes clouding over with sorrow and pain, as he recalls his first time. "Kyo, you have had sex before, haven't you? Shouldn't you know," she asks shyly and he shakes his head saying, "Really, go ask them. I don't know how it feels the first time or how to tell if you're ready. I didn't get the pleasure of deciding." Realization dawns on the woman and she wraps her arms around his neck murmuring, "I'm sorry, Kyo. I shouldn't have asked you. You're not mad at me, are you?" He shakes his head returning the comforting embrace and he says, "It's okay, I was younger than you are now. All I can say is when you know you love that person and everything feels right then do what your heart tells you. Our bodies betray us, but our hearts are loyal." Her eyes peer into his with pure trust and she whispers, "Thank you, Kyo. Can we go visit Momiji? He lives around here with that guy he's seeing." Glancing at Haru and Yuki who seem content sitting on the bench glaring at the boys who's eyes linger too long on the tiger, he nods and says, "It would probably be for the best. Those idiots are going to kill someone."

Giggling he pushes his boyfriend off of him and bounds over to the door yelling, "Who's there?" He can feel Brad's lustful gaze focus on him as an annoyed voice states, "Who do you think?" He throws open the door and launches himself onto Kyo who taps his head in irritation. "I missed you," he squeals slipping down to his feet so he can stare at the neko. "Brad, come meet some of my family," he calls as Kyo studies him noting the kid had grown and actually looked his age. He proudly takes Brad's hand and stares up into his green eyes watching his reaction as he says their names. Kyo visibly winces at the bright colors that decorate the room as Kisa sits down on the bright red chair. "Brad's twenty and he goes to college. He wants to be a doctor for pets. He's part Australian," he rambles on as he clutches the man's hand and Brad smiles shyly saying, "Momiji told me all about you guys. Even some things I'm not sure I should know."

His heartbeat hammers in his chest and he asks, "Like what?" Shrugging Brad runs a hand through his black hair and says, "He told me simple things, like how you trained, Kyo. He also told me he use to have a crush on you, Kyo." A pink blush stains Momiji's cheeks as he glances at Kyo nervously and Brad adds, "He also told me about the curse." Anger overtakes him and he grabs the boy's collar yelling, "You did what?" Sighing Yuki removes Kyo's hands from the boy's shirt and says, "It's okay, Kyo. I'm sure he didn't mean any harm by it. He just didn't want to lie to his boyfriend. As long as Brad keeps quiet, then it'll be fine."

After calming the neko down, they sit down on the orange couch and Momiji tugs Brad on the yellow love seat across from them. "So, how have you been, Kyon-Kyon," Momiji asks bouncing in his seat and falling into his boyfriend's lap. "Fine," the neko states before growling in pain when Haru pinches his side and he says, "I've been good, it's the stupid cow that's been bothering me." Involuntarily he gasps when said cow bites his neck and Momiji laughs saying, "Kyo's got a hot spot!" Giggling Kisa glances at the trio when Yuki begins tormenting his neko's ears and she blushes when Kyo makes small, whimpers mingled moans. Amusement lightens Brad's eyes as Momiji stares intently at Kyo's flushed face. "We should probably go, Kyo promised to make us dinner," Haru states helping the neko to his feet and Yuki politely smiles goodbye while Kisa waves. "That was interesting," Brad says staring at the closed door and Momiji nods bouncing on his lap.
