The Gist of Things: Kyou is devastated by the encounter in the gym, and before Haru can talk to him he finds a certain somebody in his way...

A/N:I can't believe it's been so long since I've updated this story; I'm so annoyed with myself! Not crazy pleased with this chapter, but I think it's just because I'm no pleased with anything. X3

Yuki looked up from his book as the back door slammed open and then slammed shut twice as hard. It was a sure sign of spitfire Kyou's presence. He set the book aside and stood expectantly. Sure enough, the redhead rounded the corner with shoulders hunched, his whole body tense.

And he stormed straight past Yuki, completely ignoring the rat.

"Kyou," the grey-haired boy called softly.

The cat turned on his heel, face full of fury. "What!" he shouted, clenching his fists.

"What happened?" Yuki asked calmly.

Kyou's anger faltered and his eyes glanced away. "Nothing," he muttered. "I—" The cat paused before another stormy look crossed his face. Someone was calling his name outside. He muttered something under his breath then turned to run up the stairs. He paused on his way up for a moment, turned around. "You can tell Haru to stay the hell away from me!" he hissed, then disappeared to the second floor. Another door slammed.

Yuki arched a brow and turned in time to see Hatsuharu come in from the kitchen.

"Where's Kyou?" the ox asked without a second thought for pleasantries.

The rat folded his arms. "What did you do to him?"

"It's none of your business," Hatsuharu said with a carefully neutral face. "Is he upstairs?" The ox didn't wait for a reply and headed for the stairs. A hand wrapped in his coat, bringing him to a halt.

"Kyou doesn't want to see you," the rat said coolly.

"Let go of me." The ox's eyes were dark, a deeper grey than the rat had ever seen, and he wore a scowl on his face. Yet Hatsuharu wasn't the blustering, boisterous way he was when his Black side had taken over. Something was definitely different…

Yuki tilted his head, a speculative look on his face. "You're not Black right now."

"No, I'm not," the ox agreed as he untangled the other's fingers from his clothes. "I'm going to go see Kyou."

"He said he didn't want to see you," Yuki said to the younger boy's turned back. Hatsuharu paused, one foot on the bottom stair. "Whatever you did pissed him off and he's in no talking mood. The only thing he said to me when he came in was that he wanted you to stay away from him."

The ox stared at the rat long enough with such a look that made even Yuki fidget, then finally took his foot from the stair. He glanced up then turned around. He frowned at the floor in contemplation then nodded to himself. "I'll be back tonight," he promised, staring off into space. Then he walked off without a backward glance.

Yuki listened to the sound of his younger cousin's combat boots fading away before heading upstairs. He would brave Kyou's ire himself.

Kyou looked up from where his head was pillowed on his arm. He growled and crimson eyes flashed. "Get out!"

Yuki ignored him and stepped into the bedroom, shutting the door behind him. "Haru's gone." The cat grunted and laid back down. Yuki crossed the room and sat at the edge of the bed, earning another glare.

"What part of 'get out' don't you understand?"

"I could help you feel better," the rat said. The cat blinked, face passive. Yuki lifted a hand and rested it on his hip. "We could do something together, just the two of us."

Kyou's eyes widened, a light blush rising on his cheeks. 'Do something'…with Yuki? Before he could answer, the other boy closed the distance and kissed him. His lips were soft and then suddenly there was a tongue rubbing against his lips.

Kyou then felt Yuki grip his arms and tensed; so this was what the rat was waiting for. He had just wanted to seduce him into letting his guard down and at any moment he was going to go flying through a wall…

The cat felt a disorienting lurch as the rat began to press his advantage. He shut his eyes tightly and braced for the impact that never came. After a few seconds spent listening to his own rapid heartbeat, he opened his eyes to find Yuki staring at him with an amused smile. The rat had flipped their positions and the cat was on top of him.

Yuki took the initiative again and wrapped an arm around the orange-haired boy, pulling him down for a kiss. Kyou was hesitant at first, but eventually his tongue was coaxed out. Yuki's body was warm against his and their tongues were soon sparring with each other. Yuki tasted nothing like Haru; he was mint instead of spice, and his mouth worked Kyou's frantically where Haru's always went at a slow, sensual pace.

Kyou growled at himself for thinking about the ox; Yuki mistook it as a pleased sound instead of one of frustration and gave an answering moan. His fingers hooked in the cat's belt loops and pulled his hips down while his own lifted up. They both gasped at the sudden intimate rubbing.

Violet eyes stared up into crimson. "Do you want to have sex, Kyou?"

The cat's mind reeled in hesitation and excitement. Memories of the act between him and Hatsuharu flooded his mind. He licked his lips. "Do you…uh, do you want to be inside or do you want me to…?"

"'Inside'?" Yuki repeated with a blank look on his face.

"When Haru and I did it, he was inside me." Kyou cursed himself as soon as the words were out of his mouth. "He, you know, went in there," the cat continued.

Yuki stared in horror. "You… That's disgusting, not to mention unsanitary!"

"It wasn't my idea!" Kyou snapped. "What the hell did you have in mind?"

The rat shifted his hips. "I was thinking we could…rub against each other," he explained with a blush.

The cat nodded slowly and they both sat uncomfortably for a moment until Yuki suggested he should move. Kyou tentatively pushed forward and the rat bit his lip, eyes almost falling shut. Through trial and error they found a rhythm that satisfied them both. The cat rested on his forearms above the other boy, hips moving steadily. The pressure was mounting with the friction between their pants. Yuki was breathing hard now without uttering a sound. Kyou tried to hold in his own cries of pleasure, unsure how his lover would react when he was trying so hard himself to stay silent.

He was surprised that Yuki wanted him to be on top and do all the work; somehow he had imagined that it would be more like when he was with Haru. A part of him grew nervously excited thinking about it. He wondered what it might feel like being penetrated again. Being with Yuki was, in some ways, better; he head more time to enjoy the sensations, to explore the new feelings with his lover, and he wasn't being forced into anything.

Yuki gasped and dug his fingers into the cat's arms. His pale face was flushed as he bit his lips. Just as suddenly, he let go and lay panting on the bed, a serene look on his face. Violet eyes opened lazily. "Did you come too?"

"Uh…no…" the cat admitted with a blush. Since he hadn't come at the same time, would Yuki expect him to roll off him now? Was he supposed to finish the job by himself? He held perfectly still as he waited for some sign or cue.

Yuki smiled and lifted his hips. "What are you waiting for?"

Kyou let out the breath he had been holding before tentatively moving again. The stimulation of rocking against another person was unbelievable. "Can I kiss you?" he panted. As soon as Yuki nodded assent, his lips covered the other's, tongue desperate to feel friction. Yuki's mouth swallowed his groan as he came in his pants.

The cat rolled off his partner and stared at the ceiling until he caught his breath. The rat sat up and stretched, wrinkled his nose at the state of his clothing. "I'm going to go take a bath; care to join me?" Yuki asked with a sated look in his eyes.

"No, I'm just going to clean up here and take a nap. I'm tired." The rat nodded without protest and after one last kiss he took his leave.

Kyou locked the door after him, hoping the rat didn't come by after his bath and get pissed off about being locked out. The cat just needed some time alone. He cleaned himself quickly then curled up under the covers.

He didn't regret what had happened between himself and Yuki, but he was nagged by a sense of guilt.

It wasn't like he owed Haru anything, he reasoned. Haru hadn't even had the respect to ask if Kyou wanted to have sex in the first place, and although the cat was still intrigued by the thought of having the ox inside him again, he was still really pissed off too. Mostly he was just angry for the ox awakening feelings inside him that made him confused. If the stupid ox had just left him alone, maybe he would be with Yuki now and he wouldn't be completely baffled by the two of them. It was all Haru's fault!

After his thoughts chased themselves around and around, he finally decided that sleep couldn't come fast enough to wash the annoying thoughts out of his head. Tomorrow was another day.

And like hell if anyone could make him go to school.
