Soubi woke up; he lay in bed for a while and stared at the ceiling tiles. He then found the energy to roll over and look at the clock. Wonder what ungodly hour I have woken up at this time. The clock said 5: 45 not that early; he got up and pulled back the blinds, and looked out side. The day would be nice and hot he could tell that right now, no clouds in sight and the sky to the east was already turning shades of pink. I'm going to go take a shower. Before Ritsuka wakes up and get stuck taking a cold shower again, he takes forever in the bathroom! He closed the blinds and walked into the bathroom.

Ritsuka woke up; he looked around groggily, So, I guess Soubi wanted to sleep in. When Ritsuka woke up Soubi was in the chair watching him sleep, some people would think that waking up and seeing Soubi there would freak him out but he actually liked to wake up and see Soubi watching and waiting. He got up and looked for some clothes. He turned around, and in the door way was Soubi he was wearing only a towel around his waist, he was wet and his hair was still dripping wet. He smiled

"So I see you got up," he paused then added "I took a shower already today."

Ritsuka's face was bright red, "I see, Um…You better have left me some hot water! Oh yeah I was wondering if you could drive me to school today."

"Of course I did, I always leave hot water, unlike you." Soubi joked; Ritsuka was looking at his neck. Ritsuka saw the word 'Beloved' etched into his skin, Seimei he's Seimei's not rightfully mine, I received him like a child would a gift, no… but I love him, and we aren't never supposed to be? No I create my own destiny or…Yes I do.

"Ritsuka I will always love you, you are the only I intend to keep with me forever." Ritsuka felt the power behind those words. It was a word spell, his words rang true. Ritsuka had nothing that belonged to just him, Soubi had been his brothers and even his memory didn't belong to him. Even if he wouldn't accept it his name was 'loveless', and he would always have a harder time than anyone else loving another person.

"go take a shower Ritsuka ok?" Soubi asked running his fingers through Ritsuka's hair "only after this" Ritsuka kissed him quickly and left to take a shower.

Soubi got dressed and sat on his bed; He had a desk in his room he used for studying. Something that was bright red was on his desk; he walked over to it. It was the letter he had received from Kio, who was still living in Japan, he had been afraid to open it because; well if you knew Kio he's just kind of weird. Soubi decided to open it. It was filled with the pictures of Ritsuka and him when they had first met. They were in the park and all of them were adorable. Kio had gotten jealous, and kidnapped them. Soubi was surprised; he thought Kio had ripped them up. He smiled, took the one where they were cuddling.

Airi was walking down the street; it was earlier than most of her friends even got up. She liked to walk with Ritsuka. That was the only reason she got up so early. She was simple looking, her hair was dark brown it was about medium length, brown eyes, and her ears were tabby striped, they were cute, and she was short, or at least she thought so. She was the shortest of all her cousins over 12 and she was 15. She usually wore tall shoes to cover this up. She turned the corner to Ritsuka's house and on the front porch was a man. He was waiting, and looking at piece of paper. As she got closer she noticed that it was actually a picture. He was a tall man, he had dirty blonde hair, and he was unbelievably handsome. That must be Soubi! Ritsuka always talks about him. I don't want to freak him out…I'll play dumb.

"Oh, hello I'm Airi! Are you one of Ritsuka's relatives? He said that he didn't have any relatives in the United States." She said excitedly.

"My name is Soubi. I am umm… a friend of Ritsuka's." He said, I don't know her but she knows Ritsuka. He thought of correcting himself and saying something similar to lover. Then he decided to go against it Americans weren't as open-minded as they could be, and he didn't know this strange girl who wore extremely tall shoes. She called herself Airi; I have to remember her name!

"You don't have your ears…you and Ritsuka didn't…" She stopped, "Wasn't thinking that one through, are you married?" She gave him a strange look.

She can really talk, Soubi thought, just like that Yuiko, back home, I guess its not really home... "No I'm not married…why do you ask? Why do you wear ribbons around you neck?"

"I wear them because I like to, you wear yours to hide, and they aren't fun for you, are they?" she smiled, and laughed. He stared in disbelief. At that moment Ritsuka walked out of the house. He saw Airi, "Oh hi, today I was going to have Soubi take me to school."

"Ohh, well then could I get a ride?" she asked, and looked closely at Ritsuka's hand.

Ritsuka opened his mouth to make a reply but Soubi beat him to it. "Of course, that is if you really want to." "Thank you very much." Airi said as she opened the car door. Damn, she's probably smarter than she lets on, too smart for her own good.

"You have everything for school?" Soubi asked. Ritsuka was looking at the expression on Soubi's face he couldn't quite place it. "Yes I have everything."

Soubi drove quietly to school. The whole time he drove Airi was talking. Soubi thought that maybe she wasn't smart at all. She knew all the rumors, like who was dating who, and such petty little things. Annoying. That was the only word he could describe her as, and she seemed to be taking all of Ritsuka's time away from him. They finally got to the school

"Thank you for the ride, Sou- san!" she exclaimed and jumped out of the car, and ran off to her class.

"Sorry Soubi, I didn't want you to be upset this early in the morning" Ritsuka smiled.

"Oh no, It's not your fault at all." Since Ritsuka was still sitting in the front seat of the car Soubi thought would take advantage of it. Soubi grabbed Ritsuka's arm, and while pulling him close he kissed him on the lips. Ritsuka would have liked to close his eyes and let the kiss develop, but they were in the school parking lot for goodness sakes! He pulled back; Soubi looked at him with a disappointed look on his face. "Soubi! We are in the school parking lot!" Ritsuka exclaimed.

"Ohh you liked it," Soubi said mischievously, if they were home Ritsuka might have been scared for his ears. More seriously Soubi said "I don't want you to get into trouble with Clayr so if you have any problems call me on the Cell phone. I will be in town. Promise."

"Yes, I will call you if in need." Ritsuka said and jumped out of the car "Jaa ne!"
