Haru had always been the kinky one. Kyou knew it. Haru knew it. Hell, half the Sohma family knew it. This is what drove Kyou to get his nipples pierced.

Needless to say, Hatsuharu liked that. That is what drove him to get his own nipples pierced.

One night, the two were getting quite /cough/ intimate. Haru was lying on top of Kyou, currently preoccupied with the older boy's mouth. The ox-cursed broke the lip lock and sat up. But he couldn't. Every time he tried to sit up, pain shot through his chest.

Haru finally looked down and noticed that his nipple ring was intertwined with his lover's.

The two fumbled with the metal rings for quite a few minutes, but made no progress. They not only failed to get them apart, but they couldn't even get them off.

Haru, who had given up hope after nearly half an hour, suggested that they seek Shigure's help. Kyou, being the stubborn cat he is, refused and continued working on detaching the two.

After twenty more minutes of fruitless labor, Kyou finally gave in.

And so, the lovers, clad in nothing but their boxers and attached at the nipple, set out to find Shigure.

Haru and Kyou soon reached the Dog's study. Haru opened the door a crack and peeked in.

"Hey Shigure, I-" he quickly closed the door. "I didn't need to see that…"

"What?"

"I never would have guessed that Ayame topped…" The cat-cursed gave his lover a strange look at this comment.

The boys stood there in silence for a few minutes, until Shigure came to the door. His face was red and, like his cousins, was wearing only boxers. He burst out laughing when he saw what had happened to the others.

That had been the longest night of both Kyou's and Haru's short lives. They had reason for it to be, as it contained a hysterical Shigure, a hysterical Ayame, and a pair of pliers.
