Hehe, I'm lazy. I just woke up a little while ago, so it's gonna be late when I get done. Also, pretty much as soon as I end one of my three main fics (this one, Trust, and Happiness of those who believe) I'm gonna start a new one. At least I think I am; I've had the idea for a while but never thought it was much good so I never did anything with it. But now I will...maybe. Enjoy!

CeTe:Hehehehe, how do you know it's not Kanone's fault? Thanks for reviewing!

alpha2nd: Yeah, he's now a masochist (I'm guessing that's the right word!). And you'll be suprised why he's doing it. Hehehe, beef stew is good. Thanks for reviewing!

After Kanone got done cleaning up the bathroom, he walked back into his room to talk to Eyes. Kanone silently entered the room and saw that Eyes was in the same exact spot that he had been left in, "Eyes?" Kanone asked, sitting down next to the boy. Eyes looked to him for a second with blue eyes turned red and slightly swollen from crying before he looked back down to the ground in shame and embarrassment. Kanone saw that he wasn't in the mood for talking and wished he could just ignore this, but he couldn't, "Eyes, we need to talk." Eyes said nothing but just stared at the ground, "How long have you been doing this?" Kanone asked, trying desperately to get some information. It was to no avail as Eyes just stared at that same spot. Kanone sighed, how could he get through to him, "Was it something I did?" He asked.

Eyes now looked up to him for a second, "It wasn't you, Kanone. Do we have to talk about this now?"

Kanone nodded, now that he had Eyes talking maybe he could find out why this happened, "So if it's not me then why would you want to do this?"

Eyes looked away again, but answered Kanone, "It's everyone else. Why do they have to be so mean?"

Kanone understood what he was talking about, the other three always joked around with Eyes but the poor boy always thought they were serious. Even before everything happened Eyes never really got sarcasm, and if he did get it he didn't like it and always took what everyone said seriously. That was a bad idea considering the three that he was concering himself with. Kanone put his arm around Eyes and pulled him closer, "They're not always serious with everything they say Eyes. Like earlier, it was what Rio and Kousuke said to set you off, right?"

Eyes winced at the way Kanone put it, it made him seem like he was crazy; but perhaps he was. Eyes just nodded, "I know they're not serious, but do they still always have to pick on me?"

Kanone smiled faintly, "They don't mean it like that, Eyes. We all care about you, do you think that any of us would tease you if we thought that this is what would result from it?"

Eyes thought about it for a moment and Kanone regretted that; his answer should have been instant. Fortunately he, eventually, reached the right conclusion, "No." He said, shaking his head.

"Exactly. We all care about you, Eyes. Why do you think we would have given you our blood if we didn't?" Kanone had yet to tell Eyes about this small detail, but he figured it would help now.

"What?" Eyes asked, startled.

"When you tried to kill yourself you needed a lot of blood. Since we all have a unique blood type, we all donated some of ours to help you out."

Eyes let the words sink in. But instead of being happy about how much his friends cared for him, he started crying again, "I'm so stupid." He said, half to himself and half to Kanone.

Kanone kissed the top of Eyes' head and rested his chin on it, "You're not stupid, Eyes, I don't ever want to hear you say that again. You're a brilliant boy and I won't have you thinking otherwise."

"Then why do I feel like this?" He asked Kanone, "Why do I feel so useless? Ever since that run in with the Hunters..." Eyes trailed off, not wanting to remember the incident.

"I don't think you're useless at all. I don't know why you feel that way, but I wish you didn't. We all care for you deeply, why can't you see that? Why can't you see how much I love you?"

That last statement triggered something in Eyes, Kanone loved him. That meant he would do anything for Eyes, no matter what. And anyone who could touch Kanone that deeply couldn't be useless. Eyes stopped crying immediately, vowing never to do it again because it would upset Kanone, "I'm sorry." He said quitely and then glanced at Kanone, not smiling but not frowning either, "I love you, too, Kanone. I never wanted to upset you or the others."

Kanone heard this and looked down to Eyes who was glancing up at him. Kanone smiled at this, "I'm glad to hear that, Eyes. But promise me right now that you'll stop this."

"I promise, Kanone." Eyes said. He hugged Kanone and rested his head on the other's chest, "And I won't break my promise this time."

Kanone nodded, remembering how Eyes had promised to not hurt himself after he tried to kill himself, "That's all I need." Kanone replied, "We should get you cleaned up, though. The others don't need to kow about this, right?"

Eyes shook his head and followed Kanone into the recently cleaned bathroom and sat down on the toilet lid while Kanone turned the water on in the bathtub. He instructed Eyes to get in which he did without hesitation and winced at the warmth at first, but quickly adjusted. Kanone turned on the shower head and rinsed Eyes' hair thoroughly and then washed it. He gently cleaned the boy's wounds with water at first and then rubbing alcohol. Eyes winced at this and pulled away, "That stings." He said.

Kanone smirked at the obviousness of the statement but quickly wiped it off his face and replaced it with a more concerned look, "I know but if we don't get these cleaned they could get infected, now do you want that?"

Eyes hesitated but shook his head, "No." He slowly allowed Kanone to begin cleaning his wounds again and after they were finished dressed in new clothes and joined his boyfriend downstairs where the others had finished eating long ago and were now crowded on the couch, watching TV.

Kousuke looekd up to see the two and grinned, "Hey, come on you two, the movie's just starting."

Kanone smiled and he and Eyes somehow found room on the already overcrowded couch, even though Eyes ended up sitting on Kanone's lap, mostly out of preference. Kanone wrapped his arms around the silver haired boy and Eyes leaned his head on Kanone's shoulder. Eyes smiled at nothing in particular, he just felt like smiling; felt accepted. For the first time in as long as he could remember, Eyes was truly happy.

Hey hey, I think that's it. Wow, only 14 chapters...oh well, they were good chapters, right? Hope you enjoyed this fic, and now I can start my new one! Unfortunatley it's another EyesKaone fic, I know you all have to be getting sick of me writing these things by now, but maybe someone will like it! And there's also another pairing in there that is quite odd...EyesKiyotaka. It's brief, though, and also EyesOC, but that will be brief as well; the main pairing is EyesKanone and the other pairings won't last more than one or two chapters. Thanks for reading this fic and reviewing it everyone! My new fic should be up in a day or two, probably Sunday. Bye bye!
