Chapter Two:

Usagi Falls 'ill'

A/N: Heh. I think I might have fun with some of the characters in this chapter.. well.. actually all of them. Expect to see some Hiroki and Nowaki! Not sure how/when Miyagi and Shinobu will be seen though.

Disclaimer: I do not own Junjou Romantica.

Misaki's POV

I was putting yet another report in my backpack, I think it was the third or fourth one from Kamijou.. this month.

"Usagi, I'm leaving." I called. After a few minutes of silence, I went to check on him. I saw a lump of blankets on the bed, but nothing coming out of it.

'Did he run away? No, he has nowhere to go. He must be here somewhere.' I thought while removing the covers. I was relieved when I saw him there, but he was sleeping. He woke up after I stared at him for a few moments though.

'Please, oh please tell me he's a morning person.' I thought.

"What are you doing? Why'd you wake me?" he asked with an icy cold glare.

'Of course he isn't.' I thought.

"I wanted to make sure you're okay... but you're face is all red." I said putting my hand on his face, which became more red then. "Well, your head is a little warm. I'll stay home today. Let me call my teacher." I said pulling out my phone.

"Hello," my teacher clearly said.

"Ah, Kamijou-sensei, I--" He cut me off.

"You're late, brat." he said. He and I wer e good friends, but not during school hours.

"I can't come today, so I'm not late. You can come and pick up my report later. Ah, bring Nowaki too, I'll make us all dinner." I said.

I heard him sigh. "I have to get back to teaching the good.... okay, the semi-good.. no, well, the students that showed up!" he said. I laughed at that comment.

"I'll see you later." I said hanging up the phone. Usagi looked shocked.

"Do you know Kamijou-sensai, Usagi?" He nodded. Then I sighed.

Usagi's POV

The hours went by quickly as I silently watched him do everything he needed to, or thought he should do. And one of the main things was watch me.

"Ah.. Misaki.. I think I li--" Just then the doorbell rang. It's probably Hiroki and that Nowaki person.

"I'll get it. It must be Kamijou the D-" he started. I looked at him funny. "Ah, I mean Hiroki and Nowaki!" He laughed, and it sounded like he was nervous. He left the room and went to open the door.

'Augh! I could've said it.. "I like you." Is it that hard to say?' I thought.

I slid back under the covers until I heard him yell to me. "Usagi, they're here!" He came into the bedroom and grabbed some papers, I assumed it was his homework, and with the unoccupied hand, he grabbed one of my hands and pulled me off the bed into the living room.

"Akihiko, why are you at this kid.." Misaki glared at him. "Why are you at Misaki's house?" I heard him ask. Misaki got us all coffee and sat it on the table, signalling us to sit down. Misaki and I explained the situation.

"I see.. So Misaki, how exactly did your brother get rich so fast?" Hiroki asked.

"Well, I didn't know this, but my dad owned stocks in a company, and when he did they went straight to my brother, him being the oldest and all. Not to long ago, the stocks for that company rose as they became a lot richer, and then dropped a bit. Noticing this change happening so fast, he sold them while the price wa s high. He owned over fifteen out of the fourty-five stocks they made." He explained. That was pretty much, actually.

"Ah, the stock market." Hiroki said, and Misaki nodded. "So anyway, where's your report and waht's for dinner?" he asked.

Nowaki looked at him with that 'please don't be rude' look. "Hiro-san.." he whined.

"Nowaki, it's fine. He's my teacher, so I'm used to it." Misaki said handing Hiroki the report. "That's my assignment." Misaki said while handing it to him. "And we'll be having fish, if that's okay." I looked at Hiroki and Nowaki now. I didn't want him to notice me staring.

"Yeah, that's fine, Hiro-san likes fish too." Nowaki said with a smile.

Then, Misaki looked at me, to my surprise. Earlier throughout the talk he had stared straight in front of him, at Nowaki. To tell you the truth, it made me jealous. "Do you like fish, Usagi?" I nodded.

I watched him walk into the kitchen and start dinner. Nowaki soon followed, I guess he was going to help too.

"So, Usagi, I have never seen you look at anyone the way you looked at him. Are you in love with that kid?" He said. Aparently, I was like some sort of readable book. Well, I did write novels.. so maybe that was why.

"Maybe..." I replied quietly, not wanting him to hear me. "But so help me if you tell anyone Hiroki, you won't wake up too happy the next morning. What makes you think that anyway?" I asked.

He nodded in thought. "I knew because I've known you since you were ten. I can tell things about you, Akihiko." He said.

There was silence, and then Misaki walked back into the room. "Are you guys ready to eat?" He asked. Damn, if he didn't stop being so nice, and worrying about me I might actually fall for him. Thank god he didn't notice that my 'fever' was actually me blushing. I wasn't sick, technically. But I was love sick. And thank god once again for not letting hear our conversation.

"Misaki, your cooking is so amazing." Nowaki said while slowing eating the food that was on his plate.

" Yes, I agree. Although Nowaki's cooking will always be the best cooking in the world to me." Hiroki said while looking proud of his boyfriend's sensational culinary art.

I glared at him. Misaki's cooking is the best. But, I didn't want to fight.

There was a couple small conversations over dinner, then they left and I helped Misaki clean up.

"Usagi, how do you feel?" Misaki said a we sat on the couch watching the television.

I looked at him. "I feel fine. Much better than earlier." That wasn't a lie. Earlier was a morning, the worst time that exists. Which, by the way, I'm still trying to figure out why morning even exists.

"Ah, that's good." He said while moving around, I guess trying to get more comfortable.

"Oh! That's right. I got you something while I was at the store." He said getting up and pulling something from a grocery bag. "I saw this.. and I don't know why, but I automatically thought that I had to get it for you. So I did." It's a giant bear.. and it looks just like..

"Suzuki-chan?" I said. Oh shoot, did I saw that out loud?

"Huh?" He asked, obviously conused.

"Oh.. I had a bear just like this at my old house. It's name was Suzuki. I actually used to collect bears.." I said. I let some loneliness show in my voice.

"I see. Well then, this should be Suzuki-chan Junior!" He shouted. Then he walked over and sat down right next to me. He handed it to me, then yawned.

"Misaki.. are you tired?" I asked. He nodded his head, and those wonderful green eyes started closing. I pulled him over so that he was leaning on my shoulder. He looked up at me, his face red. "You can go to sleep." I said.

He took up my offer and I heard his breathing slow and saw his eyes shut. I watched his chest move up and down. 'I hope when day, I'll get to see this with his shirt off.' I thought peacefully.
