Sorry I haven't posted this earlier, I went away for the holidays and forgot to post it before I left.

Here is the second part of the trilogy, and thanks heaps to the reviewers! XD

Hide and Seek

"I'm hiding!"

"Fine," Edo replied, with a long-suffering sigh.

He watched, amused, as the sin ran around, before chuckling and closing his eyes, beginning the count to 100.

'1…2…3…4…' Edo's thoughts wandered to the scantily clad homunculus who was hiding in the forest surrounding them…somewhere in there.

'21…22…23…24…' Envy hunted around, looking for a Chibi-proof hiding place, or at least a place to extract revenge on his short lover.

'41…42…43…44…' a quiet click and a photo appeared of Edo silently counting, leaning against a tree with his eyes closed.

'63…64…65…66…' a slight rustle of leaves, another click and another photo, this time of Envy, trying – and failing – to climb a tree, awkwardly sliding down the tree.

'78…79…80…81…' a muffled snicker, a few more clicks and more photos to add to his collection of the amusing duo. Envy falling from another tree; Envy sucking his finger where it got pricked by a prickly weed. Edo, slouched against a tree, bored but still counting.

"98, 99, 100! Coming, ready or not, Envy!" Edo's voice carried a fair way, alerting both the sin and their silent watcher that he was on the move.

Grinning at the pictures he was collecting, the man raised his Polaroid camera to snap a picture of Edo running full tilt towards Envy's hiding place, but thought better of it and waited for the perfect opportunity.

Another dive from the Chibi onto the unsuspecting green-haired sin, another scream echoing through the forest, another teen falling under the sudden, unexpected weight. Edo, once again, grinning victoriously from his perch atop the sin's back, with said sin growling at being beaten…again.

And, in the middle of all that, a few quiet clicks went unheard, capturing their game, much to the amusement of the photographer. Silently, the photographer took his leave with all his photos depicting the game.

Edo slowly got off the sin and put out his hand to help him up; Envy grabbed his hand, got up, then shoved his Chibi back down to the ground, grinning at the indignant yelp that emitted from the blond.

After they were both standing, they called it a night and headed back home, as Al was probably waiting up for them, even though they told him not to.

They walked through the forest holding hands, for as much as Envy hated public displays of affection, he still liked holding his Chibi in private, or when he was in disguise in public.

Only one thought was troubling him, he thought he had seen someone in the forest while he was hiding, and he thought he had heard a click as his Chibi was jumping on him. But, not wanting to alarm the blond, he said nothing.

So they went back through the woods from whence they came, and soon came out of the forest near the back fence of their back yard. Smirking, Envy picked his Chibi up, and, having tossed him over his shoulder, proceeded to carry his Chibi through the gate and up to the house, ignoring his Chibi's complaints.

Pulling the spare key out from its hiding place, Envy quickly let them in to the house, before letting his Chibi down in the kitchen.

Grabbing two glasses out of a cupboard, Envy set them on the bench top as Edo got the water from the fridge and then filled their glasses up.

Taking his drink after putting the water back in the fridge, Edo walked out of the kitchen and headed up the stairs to his room, with the sin following him through the house.

Edo paused to knock on Al's door, and after a pause, opened the door and stuck his head inside. After a moment, Edo pulled back and closed the door again, before motioning to Envy to go into their room, and he followed the green-haired teen into the room.

After placing his water on the desk, the blond flopped down onto the bed, only now realizing how tired he was from the night's games. Envy, noticing how sleepy his Chibi had suddenly become, grinned a very Cheshire-cat-like grin and pounced on the unsuspecting blond, causing him to yelp in shock, then glare daggers at Envy. Well, try to anyway; all he could manage was a half-hearted glare, which was cut in half as he yawned, totally ruining the effectiveness of it.

Smirking down at his yawning Chibi, envy rolled off him and snuggled into him, before both of them drifted off into a dreamless slumber.

And that's the second chapter! Hope you liked it, and the third and final chapter should be coming soon!

Please review, and until next time
