Ikuto's P.O.V.

Ikuto's eyes stared straight ahead. Yes it was true that he'd fallen asleep on the couch, but he didn't remember being okay with a cat deciding to relax on his face.

The kitten Akira had brought in three days back was curled up on his forehead and eyes.

"Found you, you little ass wipe." The warmth of a furry pelt was whipped away. Akira stood holding the kitten to his chest as he cradled it gently, one finger rubbing it's head. "Why did you go to this idiot?"

"Talking to a cat?" Ikuto asked turning his head.

Akira rolled his eyes. "It's better company then you. He's probably smarter then you too."

"Your people skills are astonishing." Ikuto smirked sitting up while his legs swung over hanging over the edge of the couch. His arms curled behind the back.

"Oh and yours are so wonderful?" The pink haired male scoffed while the cat stretched climbing up his shirt to rest on Akira's shoulders.

"Why do you think I was so popular? Girls fought for me, I had dates for months ahead."

"Pretentious much?"

"I think I'm allowed to be. Guys hated me, they wanted to be me. Girl worshiped the ground I walked on."

"Yeah well now you have none of that. And I'm pretty sure not everyone was like that. Only the people you saw. And I also am guessing girls acted that way because they wanted to bet a handful of those dollar bills that go with your name. You were a little rich boy right?"

"You know so much about me, how about you return the favor."

"Not interested." Akira crossed his arms.

"It wasn't a suggestion." Ikuto said grabbing Akira's wrist and yanking him down to the couch, using a pillow he leaned against the cushion using it to squish the other male into the cushions.

The kitten leapt from thin shoulders of his owner scuffling over to lie on the pink head of hair.

"I'm getting tired of your 'mystery' bull crap. You and I are stuck here for almost five more months. Either you talk now or you'll stay under that cushion until you do. Just be sure to remember that I happen to be a heavy sleeper and my naps last for hours on end."

"How did you even have a social life and skinny body with that botched up schedule of yours. Sleep, eat, sex?" Akira was obviously trying to shove off the larger and heavier man but with the little body strength he possessed Ikuto was certain he'd only fail.

"You yourself just said I had sex."

Akira stopped moving. "There's no way you had that much sex. And if so that's kind of disgusting."

"You mean fun. Quit stalling, tell me what I want to know."

"I'm not going to be forced into doing anything." Akira growled his hand reaching up to smack the back of Ikuto's head. "Now let me go."

"I think I'll take another nap." Ikuto ground his shoulders into the cushion applying more pressure.

"Get off of me." Akira hissed smacking Ikuto again.

"I'm tired." Ikuto closed his eyes crossing his arms while his legs were kicked up to hang over the side of the couch opposite of Akira.

"Stop acting like a brat, which I know won't be easy, then pick yourself off of me."

"Night."

"D-Don't! Ikuto don't you dare go to sleep! I will rip your hair out until you go bald if you try to!"

"..."

"Ikuto! Don't screw with me!"

"..."

"Get off!"

"..."

"Asshole!"

"..."

"I'll give you 9 seconds!"

"..."

"N-nine!"

"..."

"Eight, seven, Six...'

"..."

"Five, Four, Three, Two..."

"..."

"Get off!"

"You're making this so much more difficult then it has to be." Ikuto sighed looking over at Akira freezing. Were those... "Why are you crying?"

"I'm not crying you wad!" Akira snapped wiping his eyes. "Just get off of me."

"Tell me what I want to know and I will."

Akira covered his eyes. "...ine."

"What?"

"I said fine!" Akira snarled. "Now ask what you want."

"Why were you crying?"

"I told you I wasn't crying!"

"Fine, then why are you so pissed at me?"

There were probably man reasons, but Akira seemed to understand what he meant.

"I'm not exactly the most adored person where I live." Akira's breath was fast. Ikuto hadn't noticed it before but he was breathing almost in fear. "The kids at my school never liked me much. I was too coarse for in their opinions. They liked to make fun of me. One time they thought it would be funny to lock me in a cupboard at a supposedly haunted building. We went on a field trip there because it used to be a hospital in one of the wars. Four hours. I was stuck in a dark hole too small to move."

"We were supposed to be playing hid and go seek." Akira's teeth were gritted. "One girl saw me duck into my hiding spot and she got some of her friends to shove shove a few bricks in front of it. They'd been planning to leave me in there and comeback later. The only reason I was found was because my teacher realized she didn't have the right amount of kids. I hate small spaces, places I feel trapped. Like right now." Akira removed his hands his eyes blazing. "So, Get. Off."

Ikuto sat up removing the pillow, Akira sat up moving off the couch before Ikuto said, "I get the feeling that's not all you have to say. What about what your life was like a month ago?"

Akira turned to Ikuto. "I was a burden."

He left the room leaving Ikuto in silence.

Running his fingers through his hair he shook his head. "One step back."
