kyu: Yay! I haven't died yet!

Kyo: And that's supposed to be a good thing?

kyu: -glares- Do you really want me to use my all-mighty mighty-ness and make it so this fic goes in a different direction?

Kyo: -slightly nervous- What kind of direction are you talking about?

kyu: Oh well there are many different directions I could take. I could make it a Yuki/Haru fic… or a Kyo/Akito rape fic… or even a fic where you walk in on Aya, Hatori, and Shigure, and then they lure you into joining them and-

Yuki: I think that's quite enough.

kyu: What makes you say that…?

Yuki: -points to Kyo who is in a corner, mumbling something about lecherous freaks and their horrible lubrication fetishes-

kyu: -struggling with laughter- S-sorry, Kyon-kichi… I… I… Buahahahahahahaha! -breaks down laughing-

Yuki: Just get on with the story…

kyu: R-right… -sees Kyo and starts snickering again-

DISCLAIMER: I, kyu, sadly do not own these cute, adorable, chibi animals or their original story. –sniffles- are you people trying to make me feel bad?!!

-Okay… I think I'm done… yep. I'm done.

kyu: recap time! Kyo and Yuki had a fight, and Kyo ran out. Yuki followed and admitted his feelings by kissing our liddle neko. Kyo was about to tell Yuki something, but Haru showed up. Yuki became quiet and pulled away, leaving Kyo alone. Kyo freaked and ran home. Haru followed Yuki home and hinted at some indecent things he wanted from the nezumi. Yuki yelled at him, letting Haru know that the feelings were only one-sided and shut the door in his face.

Kyo-kun's PoV

I ran home and into the house, the rain mingling with my tears. I made my way to the stairs, but the kuso inu blocked my path.

"Oh dear… We finally get the kitty-cat back, and our poor liddle mousey disappears," he says, being overly dramatic at trying to show concern. I push past him and make my way to my room, but his annoying voice calls me back. "Kyon-kichi, where exactly did you leave Yuki-kun?" That's it! I spin on my heel and somehow manage to keep my balance.

"Who cares?! I sure as hell don't give a damn about that damn nezumi! He can be struck by lightning and die of a combination of electric shock and heat stroke for all I care!" There. That should let them know that I don't really feel like talking about Yuki right now. Inwardly smirking at the dumbfounded look on the dog's face, I turn and continue to my room, making sure to slam the door to inform them of my need to be left alone for a while. I trek to my bed, not even bothering to flip on the lights. They'd probably just piss me off and give me a headache. At least, a bigger one than the nezumi gave me.

Damn him! Why the hell did he have to go and do something like that?! He always finds some way to mess with my head and take the lead in our little game of cat and rat. And I, like the baka neko that I am, always fall for his little ploys. He can read me like an open book. All my moves, my strategies… my emotions. He reads them and counteracts them flawlessly. But what the hell was he counteracting back there?! Did he mean any of that? Or was it just something to rub in my face later?!

Why are you stressing about something stupid like this?

'Because. The kuso nezumi has the kind of power and influence you don't want to mess with. He could ruin not only my home life, but my school life as well.'

Yes… but now you have leverage over him. If he says anything about what just happened, you can remind him of just who started it. You've got nothing to lose this way. I mean, it's not like you liked it or anything like that.

'…'

Right…? Oh come on! Goddamn it, Kyo! Be a man! Don't fall for the rat's trick again! He fooled you out of your spot in the zodiac! Don't let him have the pleasure of making you lose your place in your new life too!

'Shut up. You have no idea how much I wish you were right. But I… I can't even begin to imagine doing something like that to Yuki. Not after… that.'

After what? His attempt to make you seem weak? Well guess what? It seems to be working so far! You just have to remember: You are a teenage boy with certain. . .hormones that make things get a bit blurry when it comes to those who show interest in you. He doesn't feel that way about you.

'How the hell would you know? Get out. Just leave me the hell alone. I don't want to even think about what just happened.'

-sigh- Fine. Sit here and pout about your little heart drama. You'll realize what I said is right sooner or later.

'OUT!'

-silence-

Yuki-kun's PoV

'DAMMIT ALL!!!!!'

I step into my room, the door swinging shut with the slightest of pushes from my foot. Though that's not enough for me. My insecurity: I hate having people walk in on me without my consent. Besides, I'm sure Shigure knows I'm home, but I don't want to talk to him. And since I didn't talk to him before I came up here, he may try to come to me. I twist the lock, leave the lights off, cross my room, and flop ungracefully onto my bed.

'I had to kiss him! I just had to! Stupid! Stupid, Stupid, Stupid, STUPID!!!!'

I really don't think that's the problem here.

'Who the hell are you? And how the hell would you know?!'

My, my, Yuki-chan. Such language! I do believe Kitty-kun is rubbing off on you.

'What the hell do you want?'

Just wondering if you wanted to know the real reason he ran from you. . .

'. . . I'm listening. . .'

That's better. It's no that you kissed. It's that you kissed him, then dropped him on his ass just because Haru came.

'Huh?'

Oh my. I thought you were the smart one! He won't put his heart out there for you if you won't do the same for him.

'. . .'

OH GOOD GOD! He likes you, but he has his pride! He won't act like he's hurt that you dropped him or show that he really likes you until you step up and show him you weren't just caught up in the moment!

'. . . oh. . . Why the hell didn't you just say that in the first place?!'

-sigh- I'm the voice in your head. It's kinda my job to be philosophical and shit like that. And as the smart one in the family, it's your job to know what the hell I'm talking about! I need one of you to understand me without an explanation.

'Wait. You talk to the other members of the family too?'

Yep. I'm kinda the universal conscience of the juunishi. . .

'Oh god! I just realized I'm actually having a conversation with a voice I hear in my head! I'M GOING INSANE!!!!!!!'

Wow, you're a lot different in your head than in front of others. Do you know how stupid you are sometimes?

'Get out. I want to think by myself. Just go away.'

Huh. Ya know, I just got the same thing from kitty-kun. You guys really are perfect for each other. . .

'What?! You spoke to Kyo?! What did he say?! Is he really upset?! Does he hate me?!

'DAMMIT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

kyu: . . . wow. That sucked. I've kept them waiting all this time, and now all I give them is this? -sighs and hangs her head- They're gonna kill me.

Kyo: Damn right they are! As they should!

kyu: Kitty-kun, I'm really not in the mood for this. . .

Kyo: The hell if I care! You've officially pissed me off! Deal with the consequences!

kyu: Yuki-chan, can you deal with him? -looks over to Yuki, who looks even more depressed than her- which is pretty frikkin' impossible right now!-

Yuki: -off to the side, not looking at either of them- If he wants to be pissed off right now, I think he has every right.

Kyo: . . . -looks away, blushing angrily-

Kyu: -sigh- Fine. Please read and bitch at me like I know you want to. . . -goes and curls up in Yuki's arms-
