Okay, this chapter is all exposition (and no, C-kun, NOT sexposition XD). So it's going to suck. Juuuuust appologizing in advance.
It had to be said, I suppose :sigh: Anyway, I'm amazed you're all still reading this, so THANK YOU ALL :gives you cake: Yeah, cake is good.
OH YEAH! So I was talking to a uh, certain author on this website who wishes to remain anonymous and he said something about this thing on Robot Chicken where Catwoman was completely smashed and was dancing on a table and yelling profanity, and at one point he thought she said "WHO WANTS TO PET THIS KITTY!" She was actually saying something more obscene, but anyway, now I'm got this random image of Kyo saying that and it will not get out of my head and it's driving me INSANE. XD Yeah, that's my story.
I'm supposed to be writing an essay right now, pfft, f+ck that sh+t.
IMPLIED SHIGURE/HATORI IN THIS CHAPTER! I don't know how you all feel about that, but just telling you.
I call this chapter, WHEN UKES REVOLT! dun dun DUN.
Disclaimer: I do not, I repeat, DO NOT OWN FURUBA! Even though I tell people me and Yuki share Kyo and Hatusharu's my"shamefull milk cow" (don't ask, just don't...), it's all just me saying stuff.
Kyo didn't sleep well that night. He would keep waking up from his infamous Yuki dreams and then lie awake for several minutes, the part of him that wanted Yuki more than anything engaging in fierce screaming matches with the part that hated Yuki with a fierce burning passion. This cycle continued until about 6:30 at which point he decided trying to go back to sleep would be pointless, so he got up, intending to take another shower.
Kyo sighed, distressed, as the warm water splashed over his form. He was not looking forward to the trip today...
Tohru and Kyo were eating breakfast when Hatori arrived to come and get them. "Good morning, Hatori-san!" Tohru said brightly, smiling at him. Hatori was looking at Kyo, who was looking off into space.
"Kyo?" He said, "time to go."
"Huh?" Hatori rolled his eyes.
"We need to get going, where's Yuki?"
"How should I know!" Demanded Kyo, his temper getting the better of him. Hatori sighed.
"Go wait in the car with Hatsuharu, Tohru-kun, will you please go find Yuki?"
"Of course! I think he's in his room," said Tohru before disappearing upstairs. Hatori was still looking at Kyo.
"What!" Kyo snapped.
"Nothing," replied Hatori. Kyo, muttering to himself, got up, picked up his bag and left the house. He walked toward Hatori's car, sighing grumpily. Haru was in the backseat of the car with an indifferent expression on his face. Kyo hesitated for a second before opening the door and getting into the backseat, determined not to look at his cousin. None of them spoke for several moments until,
"Kyo?" Asked Hatsuharu tentatively.
"What do you want, damn cow!"
"I'm sorry I kissed you, and, stuff," he replied simply, his voice was calm, the tone contrasting strongly with that of Kyo's voice as he answered angrily,
"What the hell! Stop apologizing! Neither of you mean it, so why even bother!" Haru's eyes narrowed in confusion.
"Neither of us?" He asked simply, still calm.
"Forget it," huffed Kyo, turning away.
"Do you mean me and Yuki?" Haru asked. Taking Kyo's non-reply as a yes, he continued, "Kyo, everything that's been going on, it's not me and Yuki trying to mess with you, if that's what you think. Whatever happened between you and Yuki, I didn't know about any of it-"
"I realized that when you flipped out because you thought something happened!" Interrupted Kyo through gritted teeth. Haru's demeanor remained passive.
"I apologized to you for that, so you have no reason to be mad at me," he said calmly.
"Fine! Whatever," replied Kyo, running his fingers through his hair uncomfortably.
"But, all of this, was Yuki's fault," said Haru, seeming to choose his words carefully. "All this confusion and uh, hooking up, he started all this." Kyo faced Haru now, confused.
"What the hell are you getting at?"
"I'm getting at," said Haru, his voice rising, clearly telling Kyo to shut up and let him finish. "That Yuki's been messing with us, and it's really been getting to us, so," Haru turned and looked Kyo in the eyes, "maybe it's time we messed with him a little."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Haru sighed and gave Kyo a very light kiss on the lips, pulling away quickly. "Haru, what the, what are you trying to pull!" Kyo hissed furiously.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything you don't want me to," said Haru smoothly. "But we're going to get our revenge, and you want that, right?"
"Well, yeah, but, what are we going to do?" In answer Haru kissed Kyo again, this time it lasted a little longer, Haru's warm soft lips moving against Kyo's, occasionally his tongue would flit out of his mouth, teasing the lips against his. At that moment they heard the door slam and Kyo quickly pulled away, blushing.
"I'll explain better at the onsen," Haru said very quietly. Kyo still looking confused as Haru moved into the middle seat so Yuki could get into the car too. Haru immediately began to fuss over Yuki, (who still looked half asleep) straightening his collar and such before Yuki brushed his hands away like he would a bothersome insect. Haru desisted as Tohru and Hatori got into the front seat.
The car ride was long and uncomfortable. Tohru talked constantly and remarked about what a nice day it was and the pretty shapes the clouds took. Fortunately, when they arrived in the late afternoon, no one had been driven completely insane. When they pulled up in front several attendants came outside to greet them and take their things inside. Shigure also came out of the doors, smiling jovially. "How was the drive up?" he called. He walked towards the awkward group, still smiling, though no one (except Tohru) was smiling back.
"Hi Shigure-san!" Tohru replied happily, waving.
"Hello Tohru, Yuki, Haru, Kyo," said Shigure, smiling to each of them in turn.
"Shigure, where are we staying?" Asked Yuki suddenly.
Shigure looked slightly puzzled, but answered anyway. "Tohru gets her own wing in the house, you three," he pointed at Yuki, Kyo and Haru, "are sharing, and me and Haa-san get our own."
"Don't even try it, I'm not staying," replied Hatori, exasperated. Shigure slipped his arm around Hatori's waist.
"Oh please? Just for one night!" He said, giving Hatori uke er, puppy dog eyes. Hatori sighed, annoyed. At that point an attendant appeared and indicated Yuki, Haru and Kyo should follow her to their rooms, all three of which were along the same hallway next to each other separated only by a thin rice paper wall. After bowing profusely, the attendant left and each boy went into a room.
Hatsuharu's room was in between Yuki's and Kyo's, his room only separated from both of theirs by a thin rice paper wall. He could see their silhouettes moving around in their respective rooms. He stood there and watched for a few seconds, Kyo throwing his bag down onto the ground and collapsing on his stomach onto his bed and Yuki setting his down and heading towards the door. Yuki walked down the hall and he heard another door open and close. Haru left his room and slid open the door to Kyo's. He looked up when Haru entered the room.
"What, Haru?" He asked. Haru sat cross-legged on Kyo's bed and put his hand on his shoulder, then slowly rubbed circles on his back. Kyo fidgeted uncomfortably under the touches. "Haru stop," he said, sitting up and facing Haru, who smiled to see a light blush had appeared on Kyo's tanned face. "What!" Asked Kyo, exasperated.
"Our plan," breathed Haru, putting his fingers under Kyo's chin, "to get back at Yuki," he pulled Kyo's face closer, "is to totally freak him out," Kyo could feel Haru's warm breath on his lips and wanted to move in for a kiss, "by acting like we're together." Kyo was violently ripped out of whatever Haru-trance he'd been under and pulled away from the other boy and backed away from him.
"Whoa wait, act like we're, why!" Haru sighed.
"Why are you freaking out, I thought you'd like the idea seeing as how you wanted to kiss me just now," Haru replied calmly. Kyo blushed more deeply.
"I, I mean, well-" Kyo tried to answer. Haru reached for Kyo and pulled the ever blushing boy into his lap.
"I like you, you like me, this will definitely get Yuki pissed off, what's wrong?" Asked Haru. Kyo looked away and didn't respond. "I'll convince you." Haru ran his fingers along Kyo's jaw and eased his face around, gently kissing him on the lips. The kiss was soft and simple, Haru moving his lips over Kyo's and running his tongue along the other boy's bottom lip. Kyo slipped his arms around Haru and opened his mouth, granting his tongue entrance. They began a very light fight over dominance, neither of them really putting in much effort. In the end Haru won and pressed his advantage, lapping every corner of the delicious cavern before him. He then put his arms around Kyo, resting them in the small of his back and slowly laying him down onto the bed, pressing his form down on him. Haru moved his hands onto Kyo's chest, lightly teasing him through the fabric of his shirt. Then Haru pulled away and looked down at Kyo, who was breathing deeply. "Have I got you convinced?" He asked, softly.
"Yes," Kyo breathed. "I like this plan."
"Good." Haru gave Kyo another kiss on the lips. "Meet me at the hot spring tonight at midnight." Kyo nodded and another kiss followed.
Kind of an awkward place to end, sorry --; I JUST WANTED TO UPDATE THIS BLOODY THING! I should go to bed... Yeah.
Hope you liked, please review!
