Chapter 2

To Hell With Hospitality

He shifted in his mattress...as he stared back at his clock there a slight knot forming in his otherwise smooth features, as he finally noticed that for the last hour and a half...his mind had been wading back and forth through distractions unwanted.

There was a god awful snoring... though right now he couldn't tell as to who was creating the ugly disturbing noises because he had the lights closed in this part of the room and none of the other boys wanted to declare their fear of darkness... Also, there was someone else who kept on shifting in their mattress... he heard the sheets crisply; there was also the high pitched giggles of the women from inside his room which was thankfully somewhat muffled by the door...

I'd rather use my bed for practical purposes than staying awake...what're they even doing?

His eyes still directed on the glowing digital watch atop the table near him as he was contemplating how to get rid of all these people and if possible at this very moment. Or if there were better places to sleep in or a room where he could just bribe some random person staying in the hotel just not here with all these people...but at this time of the night—

"Rutherford?"

His thoughts broke as his mind registered that someone had actually spoken his name in the vast darkness of his flat. He quickly acknowledged it with a faint glance to his side... but seeing as it was utterly useless in the dark... he quickly voiced a faint and curt 'hmm' that was deathly laced with obvious sleepiness and slight annoyance.

"Hiyono and the other's are still awake...and I don't think I can sleep much either..."

A short mumble is heard from the red-head who seemed to be steadfastly asleep...the only one at that

"I don't see any point in discussing that with me Narumi"

Narumi was very much thankful that he was hidden from view and the fact that it was dark... because he made a rather indignant frown upon forgetting...that of course, Eyes was Eyes... sleep over or not he was bound to react the same if at all... he's still the same person...that is if you'd even want to call him that. A slight silence between the two emerged, Narumi seeing that conversation was useless at this point and Eyes was...well.. being Eyes

"Eyes-kun!"

A sudden barrage of light from the opened door accompanied by loud thumps, on a carpeted floor I might add, and voices...

"We were wondering if you had any playing cards."

It was obvious though, that Rio wasn't waiting for any answers as she simple shuffled around aimlessly near the door frame tables. As another voice finally emerged and another person was visible through the only light source

"Why...is it so dark in here?"

As Hiyono and the other Blade Child was still nowhere to be found as they were probably still scouting around Rutherford's room Madoka on the other hand was navigating through tables, couches...and what she felt was a couple of bodies...

Eyes simply stared at her form as she almost stepped on his left leg then poked it with a toe and missed by an inch, all this he observed while he was waiting for her to voice out her concerns... No use helping someone who didn't find the trouble to speak. Or perhaps she knew what she was doing... or half of it... Narumi on the other hand simply sat as he tried to see what her sister was trying to accomplish out of walking around in the darkness...

The darkness finally caught up with her as she was walking through the 3rd futon, which was near a wall and the farthest from the bedroom door. Kousuke shifted once more, but this time... Madoka's hunt for the light switch caused her to trip as the unexpected movement of his arms caused her to fall head long into his entertwined legs...

But luckily for her and unfortunately for Kousuke, her reflexes were good as her right hand stretched out and firmly grasped... the other one's crotch area for the sake of landing right. It was her hand or her face ...so she made a choice...and the other suffered for it...

A yell of vulgarity was heard throughout...

In the life of this pianist...he had never ever felt really irritated towards any scenario but today was an exception and yes, he was just a smidge pissed.Though he was irked he calmly took note in his mind, that this gathering was never to happen again in his lifetime if he could help it... or not in his presence... he would have rather a boring socialization of old men and women who treated him like some prince and wouldn't even think to burp in his presence...

"It's going to be a long night Rutherford..."

"Hurray! I found a deck of cards, everyone come play some poker!"

"Ooh! Yeah, sure!"

Ryoko and Hiyono finally appeared out off Rutherford's room at Rio's excited remark at actually finding the cards, as no one else minded the loud girlish yell of vulgarity... Though Madoka successfully found the lights and a bag of good cold ice for the wounded private part...

As everyone was setting up for the poker game...with mostly grins on their faces for the ladies and Kousuke and the same bored expressions laid etched on Narumi and Rutherford's faces

This was bound to be something along the lines of strip poker or a combined punishment game of sorts if it was Rio who suggested it

"So yeah... basically, strip-shot poker... you strip and drink a whole mug of pure old beer"

"Where'd you suppose you'll get your beer?"

"I saw some in Eyes' freezer... I think it was a gift from someone!"

Now, hospitality suggests that you make sure that you're guests are comfortable... and that you'd show concern for their well-beings... But if you're guests are the one's making sure they're comfortable...

The host was now making a mental list of people to have banned from his hotel flat.

So basically everyone here...

To hell with Hospitality

A/N: I've been dead on and most of you probably don't even know me...--But hey, I'm writing again...I've rewatched the series and I found my love for Eyes Rutherford renewed. So yeah, expect more crap from the former "Ri-kun" also... Ahh, and reviews are loved
