Hello! Another chapter of A Farm of Yaoi! Ch 4! This is a little off track from starting the other pairings but I think we need just a little break. You'll see what I mean. Hope you enjoy!

It was a normal day in the pet shop. Ritsu looked over at the new puppy: Saga. He looked at his papers the first moment he could. He's been spying on that new puppy ever since he arrived. He felt a constant thumping in his heart and his face became flushed. He loved him…but he was too shy to go up and confess.

Saga knew the kitty was watching him…but he would have nothing to do with him. That kitten understood nothing. He probably lived his whole life in the pet shop.

A day came where the two bumped into each other while walking around their cage in the store. Ritsu looked up at the puppy after being knocked down. Saga helped him up and he confessed. Saga froze…he knows nothing…he's just some pampered prince…

But the two stuck together.

Ritsu, although nervous, tried to calm himself when around Saga. Saga knew he was nervous but he didn't like how the little kitty didn't know anything about life outside.

Saga saw all the other animals get adopted and he hated all of them. He heard some people talking about adopting Ritsu.

"Saga-senpai! Did you hear? I'm gonna be-" "I know." "…aren't you happy for me?" "…no" "…why not? Having a home is a great privilege." "…that's a lie." "What? No it isn-" "SHUT UP! You know nothing about having a home or me! Why do you love me? Why do you insist having a home is great when you don't know a damn thing about the world outside?" Saga let out what burdened his heart. Ritsu was surprised at Saga's outburst and ran away from him.

For a few days, Ritsu hid somewhere in the shop, as to not get adopted. The manager tried to find him but he was gone. Saga, heard about his disappearance and went to look for him. He was able to track Ritsu down by following his scent. Ristu was thinner than before and hiding in the air ducts. He was dirty and his face was tear stained. "…Ritsu…" "Saga-senpai? What are you doing here?" "Looking for you, the store owner is looking for you." "…I don't want to go." "But…you're owners…" "…Senpai…I really don't want to go, I don't want to leave you…and you're right, I don't know what life is like outside."

Saga stared at the little kitty. "…I didn't mean that…I…went through something no other animal should go through." He took off his shirt. Ritsu's eyes widened at the sight.

Saga's chest had a horrible scar. It was huge and ran down his chest. "W-what…" "I was previously owned by a sweet couple. Things went downhill after they parted. The man was so angry at his wife leaving that he nearly destroyed everything in the house. He tried to kill me…and I left for dead. If the owner of the pet shop didn't find me when he did, I probably wouldn't have made it…" "…I'm sorry."

Saga hugged Ritsu and the two were embracing. At that moment, Ritsu's adopters decided to adopt another kitty. Ritsu and Saga stayed in the vents and fell asleep.

Takano was asleep in the fields after chasing down Chiaki from running away. Damn wolves…

Ritsu noticed Takano sleeping and he went closer… He lifted Takano's shirt…sure enough the scar was still there.

Ritsu looked around…nobody… He lied down next to Takano and cuddled next to him. He remembers that terrible scar and he felt sorry for Takano.

"…what are you doing?" "EH? N-nothing!" Ritsu tried to scramble away from Takano but he held Ritsu tightly to prevent him from escaping. "Let go!" "No." "Why not!"

Say you love me again…Ritsu.
