Chapter Two -
Ayame's POV
When Ayame wakes up, he feels a pleasant warmth enveloping him. He looks over at Hatori's sleeping form. The dragon's peaceful face made the snake feel at ease, even though there was no reason to be.
Akito was surely going to be angry. This was exactly what she had been trying to prevent. She didn't want Ayame and Hatori to be together, and now that they were, all hell would break loose.
"Hey love. It's time to get up. I think it's past noon." The snake whispers to the dragon. Hatori growls in frustration. "Hey don't get grouchy at me. You wanna keep sleeping, fine. But Akito will send out a search party looking for her precious Hatori." Ayame snaps. He rolls out of bed and walks to his dresser. "Oh Aya. I'm sorry. You know how I can be in the morning. Not to mention, I stayed up nearly the whole night. I couldn't sleep."
Ayame wasn't mad at Hatori. He was just worried. The dragon would go back to the main house again today. There was always the possibility of the Sohma head asking about Ayame. In fact, Hatori had said that Akito hadn't even asked about the snake. True the God hated Ayame. But the animosity wasn't enough for her to forget the snake. She should be questioning what Hatori had had done after finding the snake.
Ayame slips a pair of loose fitting pants over his naked form. He hears Hatori groan, and turns to look at the dragon. Hatori was staring at Ayame, with brown-green eyes filled with lust.
"What's the matter Tori-San?" The snake questions slipping a long sleeved shirt on over his head. "Your not wearing boxer today." Ayame chuckles at the dragon's reply. "Oh so that's your problem. Well mister, you need to get going to work, and so do I. No sexy love right now." The snake says happily, before his facade slips.
A frown appears on his face. "I'm not ready to do so many sexual things Hatori." The dragon looks shocked. "Of course Ayame. I wasn't insinuating we do anything. I just got a little excited when you….well…..you know. Just never mind. I need a quick shower, then I'll leave. Don't worry about Akito. She won't question me today or come after you. I promise."
Ayame would've loved to believe the words Hatori spoke, but he could not. He knew, that not all could stay as it is. Akito would seek her revenge soon. She may be oblivious to some things. But what was going on between her and Hatori, was not one of them.
