A/N: Thanks to the people that have read and reviewed my story. It makes me feel good inside to know I'm not just putting this up for my own amusement out of boredom.

Chapter 3

Yuki worked late into the night. His mind was now nearly completely numb to how tired he was (40 cups of coffee could do that to you), so he monotonously continued to type, urged on by the thought of his editor finally giving up on him. For the second time that day he asked himself when he had started procrastinating so horribly.

Normally I'm done in plenty of time... Yuki paused in his thoughts and asked himself. What was different from before. He sighed. Does having an annoying little lover cause you to become lazy... it must be his fault somehow. Oh brilliant... now I'm blaming other people for my mistakes.

Yuki groaned and held his head in his hands for a few minutes before he got back to work. He imagined by now Shuichi had gone to bed, at least he certainly hoped so. However knowing how the little brat was, the author could completely believe that Shuichi was still wide awake waiting for another call for more coffee.

The blond had worked and worked until 3 AM when at last he decided that he could consider the book done, even though the last 10 chapters were the worst things he had ever written. There was no time to properly edit it. Sleepily Yuki stood to his feet and walked into the kitchen. There was Shuichi, his head laying on the table, a coffee cup clutched in his hand, fast asleep. The author froze for a moment looking at the boy in his kitchen.

Yuki smiled slightly, unable to stop the thought that Shuichi looked rather adorable like that. He debated for a moment about waking his lover, but then decided against it and gently picked him up and began to carry him into the bedroom. The older man felt the singer curl up against him even as he tried to carefully lay him down on the bed. He leaned over Shuichi and softly placed a kiss on his forehead before crawling into bed himself. It was only an instant before sleep overcame the exhausted author, even though there was probably more caffeine in his veins that actual blood. This didn't seem to be able to keep the blond awake any more and he fell into a deep slumber.

Violet eyes blinked several times before opening fully to see Yuki's angelic sleeping face across from him and felt warm arms around him. Shuichi blinked a few more times before grinning widely.

"Yuki does care!" he exclaimed exuberantly, squirming slightly because he was so happy. Very carefully the singer disentangled himself from his lover and smiled brightly.

"Love you Yuki," he whispered, kissing the blond's soft, warm lips very lightly. However, despite Shuichi's rather loud exclamations and soft affections, Yuki merely groaned and rolled over, still too tired to get up.

Poor Yuki, Shuichi thought sadly, looking at his beautiful, angelic lover. Slowly a smile came to the boy's face. I know! I'll make him breakfast.

Shuichi happily bounded into the kitchen to make breakfast, firmly convinced that Yuki would be happy not to have to trouble himself with it. The boy happily began to busy himself with making food.

It was 12 noon by the time Yuki sleepily awoke. He groaned, considering falling back asleep if it weren't for the fact that he had to get to his meeting soon. Suddenly though he heard a loud crash in the kitchen. The author covered his blond head with his pillow.

"No..." he groaned, "Why...? why...?"

Achingly slowly Yuki stood to his feet and stumbled out of the bedroom.

"SHU. I. CHI!" the blond yelled, grinding out each syllable. The younger male froze where he stood among his mess. Flour covered half of the kitchen; dirty dishes were all over the counters and table and pancake batter was spilled at the vocalist's feet.

"Shuichi! Wha.. What the hell did you do!"

"I...I..." Shuichi blushed shamefully and stared down at the pancake batter on the floor, "I just wanted to make you breakfast Yuki."

Yuki took a deep breath to prevent himself from hitting the boy.

"Damnit brat, clean up the mess," he yelled, "I'll make the damn breakfast."

Shuichi sighed. Yuki was mad at him again. He started to clean up the flour and pancake batter along with the infinite number of dirty dishes around the kitchen. Yuki watched him as he fixed a new batch of pancakes, he couldn't help but feel the slightest twinge of regret at how much he had yelled at his lover. However, he didn't feel bad enough to take it back.

"Brat, come eat," He said, setting a plate down on the table for him before sitting down himself. Shuichi sat down and ate silently, sitting close to Yuki. Soon he laid his head down against him.

"I love you Yuki," Shuichi whispered, but all he got in response was a grunt.

"I need to go," Yuki said as he finished eating. The blond man stood to his feet and went into the bedroom to get dressed. He was just pulling his shirt on when he felt something grab his arm. He looked down and looked at a tearful pink-haired boy staring up at him.

"Y..Yuki..." Shuichi said, "Are you... are you still mad at me?"

Shuichi looked down at his feet and Yuki sighed.

"What do you expect me to say?"

"I.. I just want to know the truth from you..."

The blond took a deep breath. He couldn't tell his little idiot that he was still angry with him. The boy would most likely start to cry uncontrollably as he always seemed to do. Besides that, he supposed that he wasn't really, really angry, just stressed.

"I'm not angry," Yuki said after a long time and was suddenly attacked by his lover. Thin arms wrapped around him tightly.

"Please.. Don't throw me out.. Yuki... I.. I'm sorry.."

"You're making me late brat," the author said as he pulled on clean pants and socks.

"Y...Yuki.."

The blond sighed heavily. He broke out of Shuichi's death grip and tilted his head up placing a gentle kiss on the singer's lips. He felt the boy blush slightly, obviously having expected to be brushed off again.

"I'll see you for supper," Yuki whispered, "If I'm late don't bother staying up for me."

Shuichi nodded slightly, a little stunned. As Yuki left he grinned brilliantly, happy that Yuki was no longer ignoring him.
