Chapter 5
Soubi felt very ashamed of himself. He can't help the way he reacted whenever Ritsuka was close to him. Each time his fingers brushed one part or an other of the body of the teen, he felt his heart beating faster and a strange warm pooling in his stomac. But it was so wrong ! The teen is barely sixteen ! He can't have this sort of feelings toward the young boy. He wonderd if Kio was right and if he was not finally a pervert. That's why he tried to avoid Ritsuka. Best not to be tempted, even if he saw the hurt in the teen's eyes each time he recoiled from his touch.
When he leave the hospital, Soubi don't had found his memories back, but he was physically healed and it would be no use for him to stay here longer. Much to his relief Ritsuka was at school when Soubi leave. He don't know how long he could still hide his true feelings toward the teen. It was Kio who had come to help him to return home, a home he don't remember. When they entered the house, everything was calm. The Zeros have left for the week-end, no one knows where, but it doesn't mattered. The house would be more nice this way.
" Sou-chan, are you tired ? Do you want to go to sleep ?" Asked a concerned Kio. "Can I do something for you , Anything ?"
" Why are you so nice with me ?" Asked Soubi.
" Because I am your friend and because I'm in love with you." Answered truthfully Kio. " I will do everything for you."
Soubi wondered about Kio answer. Maybe he could give his chance to Kio. Maybe he could forget Ritsuka with Kio. It was worth a try.
" Do you really love me ?" Asked Soubi after a long time.
" Of course ! I love you with my whole heart !"
Soubi come close to Kio and kissed him. The kiss was nice, almost enjoyable, but Soubi was very aware that something was missing. He don't know why this kiss was not right, but that's what he felt. But he pushed these thought away. Maybe he don't try as hard as it was needed. Kio was a very good man and Soubi was sure that he can be happy with him. He had just to let a chance to Kio. He needed to let go of Ritsuka, it was for the best for the neko boy. Ritsuka needed to find someone of his own age, someone who can freely love him. Soubi would gladely sacrifice himself if it means that's the neko teen can be happy.

Ritsuka was troubled. Since the day Soubi was hit by the spell, his fighter had began to push him away. No longer he told him that he loved him, and the truth to be told Ritsuka missed it. It had take a very long time for Ritsuka to acknowledge his true feelings, but now he can't deal with a cold Soubi. Ritsuka had always thought that Soubi had said that he loved him only because of Semei's orders. And now that Semei's name was no longer on the man, he had stopped to love him. Ritsuka was never less happy to have been right.
This afternoon, Ritsuka came to Soubi's house. He was unhappy to not have been able to be the one who show his house to Soubi, but it can't have been helped. So he hurried to his friend. He wished to see him again and out of the hospital were the nurse can come at any time and cut any time they could have had together. But he was not prepared of what he saw as soon as he opened the front door. Soubi was making out with Kio on the sofa ! Ritsuka felt his heart break at the sight. Unconsciously a single tear fall before he rushed out of the house. Now he truely is loveless.
