Chapter 4
The hardest thing to say
Violet eyes scanned the vegitable garden before him. It looked heathy and the same as yesterday. Yuki set down his tools and knelt beside the rows of dirt and plants. Sundays were always loud and noisy, becuase Momiji and Haru always brought over more people. Kyo was probally battleing Kagura and all Yuki had to worry about was not getting spotted by Ayame.
He rolled up the sleeves of his light blue chinese shirt and pulled on his gloves. It was time to get to work. With narrowed eyes, Yuki got to work pulling the annoying weeds.
At least it was quiet.
He wouldn't know what to do it he had to listen to Haru's complaints about not taking care of the wound. Speaking of the wound on his arm. Yuki unbuttoned the top of his shirt and stared down at the white bandage around his shoulder and arm. Hatori had wrapped it before he went out, of course the doctor was gentler than Kyo had been. Violet eyes softened slowly at the memory. Kyo had a soft spot for people in trouble, but the only reason he had helped was because he'd get hell for it later.
As he rebuttoned his shirt, he heard a crash.
He rubbed his temples. " There goes the door again." Now it was time to go home, or there would be no home to get back to.
Then, leaves bagan to fall on Yuki's head and he looked up. Orange hair caught his attention, then red eyes narrowed down at him. " Don't tell her i'm up here."
Yuki lifted an eyebrow, then watched as Kagura ran twoards him. " Yun-chan! Have you seen Kyo?"
" No. I think he said something about visiting Master this morning." Yuki smiled.
" Really? Ok..Here I come Kyo!" Kagura ran off into the woods again and Yuki heard Kyo let out a sigh of relif.
" You owe me."
" I fixed your arm. We're even." Kyo hopped down, then dusted off his cargo pants. " Now to shake off the rest of them."
Yuki rolled his eyes and went back to his gardening, there was no way he was going back now. It sounded as though it was a full house. " Why don't you do what you always do? go to the roof."
Kyo glared. " Oh so now you watch me?"
" No. You always do it. Isn't that how you get me up in the morning?" Yuki looked up, this was the first real conversation they had had in years. Plus, he didn't want to fight, he wasn't in the mood.
" You tring to start a fight?" Kyo growled.
" No. I'm tring to stop one. I'm too tired to fight." Yuki shrugged, pulled off his gloves and wiped his hands on his pants. " Plus, if we fight now, I'll look even worse that I already do. I don't think Haru would apreciate it."
" No one knows I did that to you except Shigure and Tohru." Kyo sighed.
Yuki smirked. " You make it sound as if you did someting dirty."
Kyo glared harder at the prince and looked away. " Only in your dreams." The cat felt a hand on his arm, but didn't turn around. " Hands off."
" I..want to ask you something." Yuki said.
" You know everything. Ask yourself." Kyo shrugged the hand off and contined walking back to the house...or where ever he'd wander off to.
" But only you can answer it." Yuki said, as calm as he could. He could feel his control slipping. Why is this happening to me?
Kyo turned his head. " well? you gonna ask me or what?"
" Will you rebandage it tonight?" Yuki asked, pointing to his shoulder. " That stuff you used worked wonders, and Hatroi's stuff burns the entire time."
Kyo's eyes narrowed, but inside he was speechless. The Ice Prince was asking him to help? Well, the wound was his fault and it would leave a scar Yuki would have to carry for a long time. " No. Ask Tohru."
He was supposed to hate him. That damn Yuki called him a 'creature' there was no way he'd do anything for the rat.
Yuki gripped his shoulder tighter from anger and knew he'd reopened the wound. " Goddammit!" He hissed, pulling his hand away. This made Kyo spin around.
The Rat Cursed!
literaly spat out a dirty word and was now glaring at his shoulder...which now starting to turn red from blood.
" You idiot! What did you do!" Kyo snarled.
" It hurts." Yuki's dull violet eyes looked up at Kyo's angry red ones. The cat grummbled to himself for a moment, grabed Yuki by the wrist and dragged him to the house.
Well, the door was gone and everyone minus his brother and Hatori was sitting around the table with tea. Momiji saw them and gasped. " Yuki's Hurt!"
Haru was blocking Kyo's way the moment they walked through the front door. " What did you do?"
" Nothing..he reopened the damn scractch." Kyo grummbled, pushing the younger boy out of the way and pushing Yuki onto the table. Tohru jumped up and ran to get the suplies Kyo was barking out to them.
Shigure, Kisa and Hiro watched with intrest and Kyo unbuttoned Yuki's shirt and pulled it off.
" uhh..Mabye Yuki should have done that." Shigure muttered, stifling his laughter as Yuki felt his face heat up.
Tohru brought back all the stuff and set it next to Kyo. " Do you need any help?" She asked.
" No." Kyo roughly unwraped the bloodstained bandage and wrung cold water over the wound.
" That hurts you stupid cat!" Yuki hissed his hands fisting in his lap.
" You opened the wound, you suffer the pain." Kyo snapped, wiping off the blood with a wet, then dry towel. But he saw Yuki's hands and grabbed one. " Don't do that. You'll just hurt yourself again."
Yuki's eyes narrowed. " Oh and what do you propose I do? grab air? It hurts you stupid cat!"
Kyo's eyes refoucsed on rubbing peroxide over the wound. " Grab onto me."
Hiro pulled Kisa out of the room and Shigure watched Tohru's face flush.
Yuki glared, but didn't have a choice as Kyo poured the other stuff over the wound. He hissed out and latched onto Kyo and gasped.
Kyo winced as the rat's nails dug into his back, but it was better that getting fussed at for Yuki tearing up his hands. Once he finished wraping the angry red cuts, Kyo felt Yuki drop his forehead on his shoulder. " God...that hurt."
" Then why ask me to do it again?"
Haru glared. " You asked him to do it?"
Yuki sighed, but didn't lift his head. " Yeah. I saved him from Kagura. It's the least he can do."
Kyo didn't move from his spot either. " Tohru...go get him a new shirt..he won't be able to move his arm for a while."
Now Yuki's head shot up. " What!"
" They've gotten worse...you won't be allowed to move you arm for at least 48 hours." Kyo sighed, taking the shirt Tohru handed him and put it on Yuki.
" You're not a doctor." Yuki hissed, slapping the cats hands away from buttoning his shirt.
" Oh..so you don't want them to get better? I've done the same thing to myself once...hurt like hell." Kyo finished buttoning the shirt and sat down. " ugh...now I'm tired."
Shigure stood up..Haru go see if the weather channel is on to see if it's going to rain, Tohru can you bring Kisa and hiro home?"
" Sure." Both replied and shigure went into the kitchen. But sent Yuki a glance that said. ' Say thank you you moron.'
Yuki took in a shakey breath and stared down at the cat, who was laying on the floor eyes closed. " cat."
A red eye cracked open. " Hn?"
" uh...well..." Yuki looked to the side. " This is harder than I thought."
Kyo closed his eyes again. " Go away."
" Not until I find a way to say thank you." Yuki grummbled, still thinking.
Kyo opened both eyes now, and sat up. " Repeat that."
" Find a way to say thank you?" Yuki asked.
" yeah...say it again." Kyo sneered, he had finally gotten the rat to say thank you to someone other than Tohru.
Yuki's eyes narrowed. " Don't push you luck. It's hard to say. I still hate you."
Kyo laughed, literally threw his head back and laughed. Yuki flushed. " what is so funny!"
" Whatever you say ya damn rat."
