"Ritsuka, why are you so quiet?"

Ritsuka sat with his ears down, and stared at his food. He looked very confused and upset. I'm not 'loveless' my name is Ritsuka, that word spell I used should last for eternity! Maybe that name is like an ID number rather than a meaningful word.

"Soubi, who was she?" he whispered to his food, not meaning for Soubi to actually hear it.

"She was a goddess just like she said she was." The look on Ritsuka's face, was one that Soubi knew too well, It was the questioning face he had used in those times when nothing was the truth, after Seimei's death. That look Soubi had not seen for 3 years and he had been happy for that, the look caused not only Ritsuka pain but it also caused Soubi pain.

"When you kissed me for the first time," Ritsuka was blushing, "you created a bond with me so you made me your master, right?"

"Yes, something similar to that." Soubi said, then asked "Why?"

"Because I think she did the same to me except, I don't feel like I have the power. I think she does." Ritsuka finished.

"Are you sure? I didn't feel any bonds put in place." Soubi said

"Do you doubt me?" Ritsuka asked, he was pissed off, he had some how got into one of his moods.

"Ritsu…I'm sorry I didn't mean to offend." Soubi said, Soubi hated it when Ritsuka got mad, he became more like Seimei cruel and abusive.

"If you do doubt me then what is this?" he pointed to his hand, and stood up arrogantly. His hand looked as if someone had painted a silver circle on it in the circle was a triangle on the top half and a complicated character, not Japanese or any other known language, the bottom half. Soubi reached out and touched Ritsuka's hand, he was bound, and the binding spell included a part that was quite strange, he could not place what its meaning was.

"Ritsuka, I am sorry I doubted you, but…I should have not let this happen…" Soubi was blushing; Ritsuka could see the rosy color his cheeks were turning. God he IS beautiful, and with out thinking any more of it he leaned up and kissed Soubi lightly on the lips. Soubi was surprised, not only had he just blushed for the first time in years, but he had also just been kissed. It wasn't his first kiss or any thing, after all he didn't even have his ears, but with Ritsuka he had always been the one doing the kissing.

Ritsuka was blushing his cheeks were all pink and his ears were down, Soubi assumed that this was because he was embarrassed. He's so cute when he does this kind of stuff, Soubi thought. It was the first time in a while that he really realized how tall Ritsuka was he was he had grown so much, he was now only a couple of inches shorter than Soubi.

"Well…"Ritsuka said still blushing, "I guess, I'm not quite sure what I was going to say." Ritsuka looked up into Soubi's eyes

"It's ok" Soubi said, and took advantage of Ritsuka looking up to kiss him.

To Soubi's surprise Ritsuka, relaxed Soubi pulled Ritsuka closer. Ritsuka wrapped his arms around the older man's neck, and took charge by deepening the kiss. Soubi could tell Ritsuka was happy. Ritsuka felt the mark on his hand get hot he ignored it, he did not want to lose this feeling of pure bliss, or he reassurance that he now felt, and Soubi actually loved him he had no doubt now. The mark flashed, and forced them apart by four feet. Soubi looked angry.

"Damn it! Stupid girl! We weren't going to do it!" He stormed off.

Well I guess I'm gonna go to sleep, Night Soubi, sweet dreams. He walked down the hall to his room and got into bed and promptly fell asleep.
