Kyo's plan of sleeping off the day went fairly well, but by eight o' clock he could sleep no longer and climbed onto the roof. The sky had almost finished it's routine transition into the deepest navy and the stars were just beginning to spark. This had to be Kyo's favorite time of night, it seemed so calm and peaceful. It was just…perfect. Laying back on the roof, he closed his eyes and breathed in the sweet scent of the dusk air.
Yuki had spent the rest of the day working on his garden with Tohru. They had harvested several different types of vegetables and Tohru had given him a mini cooking lesson with the food. They had all sat down to dinner, but Kyo didn't come down because he was asleep. Yuki was slightly worried, what if he did something wrong, what if Kyo was just terribly embarrassed about the whole affair. Yuki was tossing and turning until he heard a thump on the roof. Getting out of his bed, Yuki found a way to climb to the roof.
On the roof he found Kyo laying there in his pajamas (a t-shirt and a pair of boxers). Yuki, as quietly as he could, climbed up beside the cat. "Hey…" Yuki whispered.
Kyo opened his eyes and looked next to him and found Yuki sitting there with his knees drawn up to his chest. "Nezumi…" Kyo breathed.
"Neko." Yuki smiled.
Kyo's features softened at Yuki's tone. He patted the space beside him, "Come sit next to me." He said softly.
Yuki moved closer to Kyo and sat in the spot indicated. "So, why the sudden change Kyo." Yuki said.
"….What change." Kyo said not meeting Yuki's eyes.
"The being nice…the helping me…..the…um…k-kiss." Yuki said slowly.
Kyo blushed, "I don't know. Just seeing you like that, made me…just…" Kyo shook him self.
"So you like me as a girl." Yuki said coldly.
"No! that's not what I meant…" Kyo said.
"Then what did you mean." Yuki asked.
"Seeing you…gave me this feeling…I can't really explain it." Kyo said.
"What do you mean?" Yuki said.
Kyo bit his lip and tried to explain, "Normaly…you try to hide it, but when you're wearing…those… you just can't. When you dress that way, it makes it impossible to hide what you truly are."
"And what am I…" Yuki said softly.
Kyo sat up and turned towards Yuki, "Beautiful." He stated simply and sweetly. Kyo leaned in, slow enough so that if Yuki didn't want it he could pull away. But he didn't in fact he leaned in and the two's lips met in a tender kiss.
Kyo was now enthused and ran his tongue on Yuki's lower lip. Yuki gasped and Kyo slid his tongue in exploring Yuki's mouth. Tentatively, Yuki wrapped his arms around Kyo's neck as he deepened the kiss. Kyo wrapped his arms around Yuki's waist and pulled the nezumi on top of him.
The two kissed vigorously for several minutes before they broke for air. Yuki was sitting on Kyo's lap panting slightly with a healthy glow across his cheeks. Kyo had an excited grin on his face and mischief in his eyes.
"Well nezumi, did that answer your question." Kyo said.
"Quite sufficiently." Yuki said breathlessly.
Kyo kissed him softly once again on the lips, "We better get back in bed…" he whispered.
Yuki nodded. The two parted and went back into their separate rooms to fall asleep dreaming of the other.
