"Ritsuka…what are you doing"? Soubi said being as calm as possible got closer to Ritsuka kneeling beside him and put his arms around him.

"Get your hands off me"! Ritsuka said as he got up and stood up away from Soubi. Soubi followed Ritsuka as he headed for his bed. And then Soubi knew why Ritsuka was upset.

"Did you hear me and Kio talking about why I am staying with you"? Soubi said as he tried to put his arms around Ritsuka and this time he let him. Ritsuka looked up at him while tears welling up in his eyes.

"Yes". Ritsuka said as he looked at the rain pouring on the windows.

"You said that you were only here to watch me nothing else"! Ritsuka screamed as he looked back up at Soubi.

"Ritsuka…I love you". Soubi said as he pressed his lips agianst Ritsuka's. Ritsuka tried to resist by trying to get himself out of Soubi's embrace. Soubi let Ritsuka go.

"No, you don't". Ritsuka said as tears ran down his face. Then Ritsuka thouhgt to himself.

"Soubi….prove it". Ritsuka looking up at him. Soubi stared at Ritsuka for a moment. "Ritsuka I know how to prove it but, your not ready". Soubi though to himself. Then he looked at Ritsuka and bowed.

"Gomenasai Ritsuka I can't…at least not yet". Ritsuka stared at him with disapointment in his eyes Ritsuka couldn't take it anymore he stood up and headed downstairs.

"Soubi, follow me". Ritsuka with a grave emotion. Soubi listened and followed Ritsuka down stairs. Ritsuka went into the living room and sat down. Risuka felt bad about making such a scene.

"Soubi I apologize for acting so immature". Hearing that Soubi smiled and put his arms around Ritsuka.

"Don't apologize Ritsuka, you're a child your still learning ". Soubi said as he kissed Ritsuka's forhead.

"Are you hungry Ritsuka"? Soubi said as he smiled. Ritsuka nodded his head and right then Soubi stood up and made his way to the kitchen. Ritsuka watched Soubi cook as he sat there at the table looking out the window at the rain pur down on the windows. "It's been a long time since I have been in this room". Ritsuka thought to himself. Ritsuka watched the rain continued to grow. Tomoro was the day that he tried to make ammends with his mother. "Can I even do that, she beat me sensless for 3 years". Ritsuka knew he had to leave all that behind and start new, his mother was a changed women at least the women he saw yesterday was.

"The food is almost done, just a few more minutes". Soubi said as he let he let the food set for a few minutes. As Soubi stood in front of the stove he didn't notice Ritsuka come up to him.

"Yes, Ritsuka what is it darling"? Soubi said holding him close. Ritsuka stood there before reply to him.

"Soubi, what if the treatment didn't work, and Misaki is the same pyscotic women she has been for years"? Ritsuka said looking out the window as the rain started to lighten up. Soubi looked at the child and held him tighter.

"Did you know that your father came to see me while you were at school"? Soubi said raising Ritsuka's chin. Ritsuka looked at Soubi with disbelief.

"Really, what for"? Ritsuka said as his feline ears began to perk up and his tail swung around. Soubi frowned at the child.

"Ritsuka, it wasn't for a friendly visit". Soubi said as he looked at Ritsuka hoping he would take the situation well. Ritsuka looked at Souubi with concern in his eyes "Father….what happened to you"? Ritsuka thought to himself as he listened to Soubi.

"Your father is moving out of the country for buisness purposes". Ritsuka looked at Soubi with tears welling up in his eyes soon they were on Soubi's clothes as Soubi held Ritsuka close for comfort.

"He told me that if Misaki's health takes a turn for the worse then it would be best if I move in with you". Soubi said consoling he teenager as he breaks down in his arms. Ritsuka loked up at Soubi with the violet tear stained eyes.

"Why does everyone leave me"!? Ritsuka said as he grasped Soubi's shirt. Soubi looked at him with a emotion of sadness an emotion that he rarely showed.

"I will never leave you Ritsuka". Soubi said as he kissed his head for more comfort. Ritsuka looked up at him and returned the kiss with more passion soon Ritsuka had made Soubi bend back and Soubi could feel the heat of the stove and remembered it was on! Soubi quickly turned around and took it off the stove and served it. They both ate in silence. Ritsuka was still comprehending if his father would return and why he didn't confront him about it. And Soubi sat there hoping Ritsuka hadn't taken it so serious. After they were done Ritsuka had went into the office where his father used to do all his work and make his calls and oher buisness projects. Ritsuka loked around for phone numbers and while he rummaged threw the drawers and folders a picture of his family it had everyone in it. Ritsuka looked at it and thought of the days when Seimei was alive and ehy were somewhat a happy family."Ritsuka, I love you". "Did mother really mean that"? Ritsuka said as he looked at the family picture. Ritsuka took the picture and placed in his pocket to keep and the found the phone numbers and looked the one he wanted and called.

"Hello"? A man's voice said in a questioning tone.

"Father it's Ritsuka". Ritsuka said coldy with no emotion.

"Ritsuka, did Soubi tell you what happened"?

"Yes……why didn't you confront me about this"!? Ritsuka said raising his voice higher and higher.

"Ritsuka…….I didn't think it was necessary". Kiyoshi said trying to defend his reasoning. Ritsuka knew why his father had left the reason was quite obvious.

"You only left so you could escape mothe,r you didn't care about anything else besides yourself"! Ritsuka with a angered tone. Kiyoshi kept quiet knowing he had nothing to defend himself now. Ritsuka's anger soon turned into disappointment.

"You coward". As Ritsuka coldy said he hung up.

"If you would like to make a call please hang up and try again".

"I'm sorry". Kiyoshi said as he hung is head in shame.
