Warning: There is a BoyXBoy relationship in this and later chapters. Don't say I didn't warn you! Also for HaruXKyo fans I have a pre-warning for you in later chapters. Please don't get angry with me for what is going to happen between the pair.

Note:

It's going to take me a while to update because I need to be in the mood for writing and I need time to live life also so please wait for me. The chapters are coming.

I have also been starting to think about the sequel to this, it's going to be called 'I Have The Disease Of The Make Believe, It's Called The Yellow Brick Road Syndrom.' Long, huh? Well, don't worry this has about three to five more chapter in it till the sequel. Spoiler (Kinda) Be perpared to throw vegetables at me because as soon as everything is good it's all going to go down hill.

Thanks for reading! And please review!

Chapter Three: Jack In The Box

"I Am Nothing More

Than A Disappointment"

There used to be this dream, where the jack in the box would pop out and just keep swinging back and forth… Back and forth…

Something about that dream had always made Kyo think. Maybe it was Jack's face, he smiled and yet he had that teardrop on his cheek.

Jack was a man pretending.

The fact Kyo had arrived three hours late to school had been more than strange, he was sure his detour had only taken about fifteen minutes or so. He wondered what happened to those minutes in which he couldn't remember. Everyone had watched him come in; they all noticed him for a second just like when Jack first came out of his box. No one would watch him sway back and forth they only liked when he came out of the box.

Jack is here to amuse.

His face was flushed as he sat down, but that was the only interruption he had made during class. He had missed lunch, but did it matter? No, he wouldn't and didn't have anything to eat anyways. He stretched, class had let out twenty minutes ago and yet he was still in that classroom. He didn't have to clean it up but he was just sitting there, looking out the window.

Jack watches with bright blue eyes.

He summoned the strength to move, his muscles tightening as he slowly rose from his seat to look around the empty classroom. It was time to leave. He didn't understand why he even bothered coming to school anymore. It's not like he would ever become something more than a cat in a cage.

Jack is happy.

He arrived home to a strange scene; the cow was searching through the fridge. But his mind told him that this was right, that the cow had come to stay for a few weeks as he got over his relationship with Rin. His mind told him to act like he used to and yet he didn't have enough energy to do so.

Jack has a large black hat to hide his true thoughts.

"What are you doing here cow?" He asked with as much anger as he could. The cow only turned to smile at Kyo, his smile becoming bigger at the site of the cat. The redhead was a mess, his shirt unbuttoned showing off his tan god-like skin that held tightly to the muscles around his stomach.

Jack smiles wide.

"Just the person I was looking for," He said in that blank tone of his as he wrapped an arm around the cat's shoulder. Kyo flinched at the contact but did not push it away, he wasn't up for a fight today.

Jack amazes us.

"Why? What do you want?" The red-head growled out with a death glare sent towards the cow who was strangely clinging to him.

Jack is sad.

"You know why I broke up with Rin?" He asked softly he directed Kyo to the living room, sitting them both down on the couch. Haru was close and the cat was starting to feel alive and visible. He wasn't sure if he liked the feeling or not.

Jack swings back and forth.

"I thought she broke up with you…" The cat said slowly as he tried to get out of the other's hold. His face was bright, probably the color of his hair, he didn't take well to this kind of contact. His hair was raising and he was becoming more like his old self, a low his rumbling with in him.

Jack isn't special.

"No, I broke up with her because I was only kidding myself when I said I loved her. Kyo," He paused looking down, his face deceptive as he tried to work out his emotions. "Kyo I really like you!" It came out quickly and nervously, the look in his eyes was strange like regret or maybe it was the fear of rejection.

Jack is put back into his box and forgotten.

"What?! What?!" He said as he pushed the other away from him, strength coming to his body as if he had actually been feeding it. He hit and bit at the other screaming angrily at the cow. "Don't fucking lie!"

Jack is remembered.

"Kyo, I know this is hard to accept but I truly love you, I always have I've just been afraid to show it!" He said yelling back at the feisty cat as he incased the other male in his arms. "Please Kyo, please believe me," He whispered as he kissed the other's forehead softly.

Jack came out of his box and he smiles and he pretends and he amuses for as long as he can because he knows it can only last for so long.
