Disclaimer: Next chapter. When two guys, such as Kazahaya (The loud-mouthed one) and Rikuo (The cold, silent, and brooding one) come together in our lovely fanfics, it's so...CUTE! Thank you for all the lovely reviews!

Chapter 2: The Not-So-Plesant Surprises

"WHAAT?" Kazahaya exclaimed upon opening the door. Sure, the room, with Lily flowers around it and a few roses scattered here and there, looked beautiful, but Kazahaya wouldn't be paying attention to that anytime soon.

Rikuo turned and stared at the bed in the middle of the room. Soft sheets and spread. No tacky comforter, fluffy pillows. Perfect view of the television...in other words, he could see what Kazahaya had to complain about, until...

"ONLY ONE BED?" Kazahaya raged.

Rikuo closed the door hurriedly. "Keep your voice down idiot, the people around us will question us."

"I DON'T CARE! WHERE'S THE PHONE! I NEED TO CALL KAKEI-SAN! THIS WAS ALL HIS DOING!"

Kazahaya threw his luggage down onto the floor and it slammed into the unflowered wall. Rikuo put his down gently and took off his coat.

Kazahaya pulled off his coat, threw it onto the floor, and stomped over to the phone, but Rikuo said, "Don't call him, we could just as easily have one of us take the floor."

Kazahaya slammed the phone down and yelled, "BUT THE WHOLE STUPID FLOOR IS COVERED WITH FLOWERS! FLOWERS AND A T.V.!"

"Are you going to calm down, or am I going to have to do it myself?"

Kazahaya, who was about to start raging again, stopped in the middle of what he was going to say, "I CAN CALM MYSELF DO-" He looked over at Rikuo finally taking in his words, "Wait, whaat?"

It was fast. Or Rikuo was faster than Kazahaya. Rikuo leapt onto the bed. As Kazahaya tried to excape his seductive co-worker, Rikuo grabbed his legs and pulled him down.

Rikuo sat on top of Kazahaya, both were breathing fast.

"Now I've got you," Rikuo said, coming close.

Kazahaya flinched. He wanted to get away from Rikuo, but couldn't allow his body to fight and defend himself from being tainted by the pervert.

Rikuo was coming closer. He was too close. Thei lips were almost touching and then...

There was a knock at the door. Rikuo went to go answer it. Kazahaya was breathing fast. He was just sitting up, when Rikuo closed the door and jumped on him again.

"It was the maid giving up extra towels for the bath house."

"Err, right. Umm, can you get off of me?"

Rikuo just stared, "But I thought we'd continue from where we left off..."

"NO WAY! I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING YOU PERVERT! YOU'RE ONLY DOING THIS FOR MY TORTURE!"

Rikuo smiled and got off of him. Kazahaya glared at him. Rikuo threw a towel at him. Night was falling.

"Come on, the maid said most people go to the bath house in the afternoon. And we can get our own private bath."

"Oh we'll get our private bath, you can be on the boys side while I'll stay on the girl's side of our own bath."

Kazahaya stomped out of the room and Rikuo followed him.

Later, Kazahaya was found in the same bath as Rikuo, much to his displeasure. It wasn't fair. He was only doing this to tease him.

He only let his nose and eyes above the surface of the water, and it was quite comfortable.

Rikuo was sitting by the rocks, an elbow resting on one as he watched Kazahaya, who glared at him.

"You're such an idiot Kazahaya."

Bubbles floated from the space where Kazahaya was retorting. He looked down at them and remembered that his mouth was comfortably resting under the water. He stood on his knees.

"How am I an idiot what did I do?"

"Always yelling all the time. I'm surprised I don't get headaches from all of your stupid ravings."

"Whatever," Kazahaya chose not to yell. It was probably just what he wanted. He sank back to the sitting position and tried to relax.

Fireflies were flying around them They both looked up at them. Kazahaya didn't really care, but Rikuo was looking in interest.

After a while of staring, he said, "You know males fireflies like to attract the female ones,"

Tell me something I care about, please. Kazahaya thought to himself not knowing where Rikuo was going with this.

"But sometimes," He had a weird glint in his eye that Kazahaya didn't like. Rikuo looked at him, smiling.

"The males will attract another male."

"All right that's it!" Kazahaya stood up completely forgetting he was naked. "I'm out!"

Rikuo closed his eyes still smiling, "Your slender body is much more attractive without any clothes to cover it up."

Kazahaya blushed and furiously ran out of the bath house.

(A/N: Sorry guys, but he's NOT naked, he did have sense to put on a robe and slippers.)

Rikuo looked up to the sky and observed the fireflies. "He's so fun to tease," he told himself aloud.

Kazahaya threw himself onto their bed when he got back to the room. He didn't know how in the world he was going to put up with Rikuo if they slept in the same bed. Maybe, if he suddenly slipped out of bed and onto the floor...

Yes, that might work. He hid some extra sheets and pillows under the bed for himself when the time came. Then he got dressed and decided to get a start on looking for the sword (without Rikuo!).

-

When Rikuo finally stepped out of the bath, Kazahaya wasn't in their room. He got dresssed and decided while waiting for him he might as well look for the sword.

After all, it was what they were getting paid to do.

End.

Yes, I AM evil for leaving you all hanging...AGAIN! But alas I will write more.
