Chapter 2: Bad Habit

Something had been amiss since that evening, or at least, definitely strange. Shigure couldn't put his finger on it, but there was a change in the way Kyo looked at Yuki, and the way Tohru looked at Kyo and Yuki, not to mention the-... "Get on with it, will you?" the orange cat hissed, waving his cards at the dog's face. The said dog, kept sitting at the low table, smiling to himself "Bleh..." Kyo rolled his eyes, plopping his head down to his arms, his cards facing the table.

"Royal Flush~" Shigure revealed his cards. It was indeed Royal Flush.

If Kyo had his tail right then, it probably would have fluffed up in astonishment "What?" he cried out. Damn it, it was the sixth time now in a row! He threw his cards furiously at the table "This game is useless! We don't even bet on anything, so what the use of it?" he complained and stood up. They'd been sitting there for half an hour now, playing stupid card games. Damn, why wouldn't it stop raining? He eyed the window narrowly, where droplets clang to blurry glass. He hated rainy days... He hated being alone with Yuki and Shigure, and especially now when... his friendship with Tohru had been left questionable. It'd been a week since that evening, and the two of them hadn't exchanged one single word. It... made his chest hurt so bad.

"Whaaat~" Shigure kept smiling nonchalantly "But if you lose for real, it would be too bad. Ne, Kyo-kun? You don't have much money anyway." Kyo gritted his teeth. What made that damn dog so confident that he would lose again?

"He's underage, too." Yuki reminded coldly.

Kyo released a shout of frustration and pointed at Yuki "Who asked for your opinion, anyway? No one cares about it!" his hands balled into fists. Yuki shrugged, smirking up at the orange haired teen from his spot at the table, watching TV. "Why you-...!" Kyo raged, his fists begging to let out the build-up of emotions, that he had been storing all the past week, hating Yuki for the humiliation at the bathroom, hating Yuki for intervening in his and Tohru's moment! His hands wanted to kill, kill, kill, to break that irking smirk off the mouse's face. And they would have been attempting doing so, if not for-...

"Tadaima!"

"Okaerinasai Tohru-kun~." replied Shigure at the call, shuffling the cards once again. This time dividing the deck only between him and Yuki "It's a card war, then." he said. Yuki shrugged, sipping his drink with a straw.

"I'm sorry for the wait, everyone, I'm going to prepare dinner right away!" said Tohru, peering into the living room, almost bumping into Kyo who was on his way to his room, trying to avoid her. He paused when he saw her though, and just stood there, hoping that she would greet him, or at least, say something. He wanted to hear his name being uttered by her lips so much! But as soon as she saw him, she froze like a stone, stuttering something unclear as her face became as red as a tomato. Why wouldn't she talk to him? Why wouldn't she greet him? He stared down at her. Silence. Someone was singing on the TV.

He looked away, a shy pink tint creeping to his cheeks "I-I'll be in my room." he mumbled, as he passed by her.

"Alright then, come down when dinner's ready! Don't fall asleep!" Shigure called behind him as he reached the staircase, and paused again, looking behind his shoulder at Tohru who wasn't there anymore. She must have been hating him now... He had done it. He made Tohru angry at someone. But since it was himself, maybe it wasn't surprising at all. He was a monster, after all, wasn't he?... What did he expect, anyway? He dragged his legs up to his room, and having the door locked, he dove to his bed and lay there, turning to lie on his side. Tohru...

He fell asleep.

He woke up to the sound of his clock beeping. Groggily, he opened his eyes, looking around the dark room. Man, it must have been late... And he was hungry. He wondered if dinner was ready yet. Sitting up, he peered at the clock only to find out it was already midnight. Damn it, he missed dinner? He growled. Yuki and Shigure must have been having fun, consuming his share... Those bastards... He raged. But slowly calmed down when the thought of Tohru, not calling him for dinner, subsided his anger, and replaced it with the usual dim pain in his chest. She should have, and used to call him for dinner, because she knew he had a tendency to fall asleep, especially when it rained. Why not tonight? Why not now? The question tore him apart.

Well, even though he was still angry, it might be good to grab something in the kitchen, he mused and stood up, and would have left too, if not for a weak voice coming out of the wall. With a frown, Kyo blinked. What was that? Rustle. His ears perked up. C-Could it be a ghost? He plugged his ear to the wall. It came from the wall. Someone's voice was speaking... no, it sounded more like groaning! It was a ghost! Kyo's eyes widened. The orange haired teen shook his head. Even he wasn't that stupid. Pfft, a ghost. "Ahh... Ohh... Mmn..." his hair stood on end. He glued himself to the wall once again, blinking. This ghost actually had a nice voice, hadn't it?... He frowned thoughtfully. Wait a minute, behind this wall was Yuki's room. Oh. A smirk crept to his lips. So this was what the mouse did at night, and he had laughed at Kyo, too. The damn bastard... The cat clutched his fists. He would humiliate Yuki, just like the other had humiliated him.

Game over, Yuki.

Silent as a thief, Kyo opened his bedroom's window, letting the cold air of the night invade his room and hit his face gently. Good. It stopped raining. He smiled to himself as he could hear the voice better. That's right, Yuki, keep rubbing it good. He bit his lower lip to block a snicker as he climbed out of the window, and into the outer sill. You find it so funny to laugh at others, when actually... Kyo jumped from his sill to Yuki's, finding the window left ajar, and a curtain covering it. You are the same, so stop pretending. He stealthily pushed the window open "Oh... Mm, baby, baby, baby... Yeah, yeah, yeah, You are my sweet heart, Yeah, yeah, yeah, Let me be yours, yeah, yeah, yeah, You stole my heart! Pow!..."

"What the hell..." Kyo blinked, as he pushed the curtain a bit so he could peer inside "Ooh, baby, ooh baby, yeah, yeah, yeah..." What the hell, it was just the radio! The cat fumed, eying the culprit. Stupid radio. He cursed mentally, as his red eyes scanned the room once again, and finally rested on a pair of feet which moved back and forth playfully in the air. On the bed, Yuki was lying on his stomach, reading something, as he munched some potato chips, his legs swinging in the air gleefully. Kyo had to cover his mouth to stop himself from laughing. Oh damn! This was the best! To think that his rival, who had beaten him up so many times, acted like a girl when no one was around. What a joke.

He watched Yuki turn to sit up and raise the volume of the radio with that horrible song on, making Kyo cringe. Yuki then looked behind him, as though he sensed that someone was watching him, but fortunately, he looked at the opposite direction of the window – the door. Once he seemed to be sure no one was watching him, he carefully crawled to the edge of the bed, and stretched his hand beneath it, where he kept a small carton box, and took out a colorful book out of it, which at a second glance, looked like a magazine. Kyo blinked, his eyes being fixed on Yuki's hands as they settled the magazine's cover facing the window, and started to scan the colorful photos excitedly.

Funny, Kyo mused. He didn't know Yuki liked to read magazines. He stared at the cover, where two muscular young men starred- -

Naked.

Blood rushed down from Kyo's cheeks. W-What on earth was the mouse reading? His left eye began to twitch as he observed the pictures the best as he could. N-Noway! There was this... man-...! And he was doing-...! "Mmn..." he jerked up his head when he heard a strange noise, looking up at Yuki who smiled down at what he was reading, or at least seemed to enjoy something in there. That stupid mouse... He was... He was a pervert! The orange haired teen ducked his head from the window, trying to calm down. No, he shouldn't be watching Yuki. This was peeking, and peeking was bad! "Hhmnn... Mmm... Yes..." his ears perked up, flushing darkly.

No, what was Yuki doing now? He peered into the room again, moving the curtain aside only to have his jaw drop at the sight of Yuki standing on his knees and pushing down his pajamas' pants to reveal his smooth and pale rump. W-What. Kyo gaped as the older teen got rid of any clothes, leaving his lower half completely exposed, as he looked for something in that carton box again. Finding it, he settled on all fours, and applied some liquid onto a pink long object. For a long moment, the cat tried to figure out what it was, and when he couldn't, he just scowled. This was stupid, he thought to himself as Yuki was finally done, and pushed the magazine in front of him.

Slowly, he moved his head and shoulders to rest against the bed, as he lifted his bottom up in the air which now faced Kyo, who still tried to figure out what the hell was the mouse doing. Only when a hand reached toward the pale butt with the pink lubed dildo, did he manage to realize what this could be, but then, it was too late for him. His eyes were glued to the spot where Yuki's slender hand simply pushed the cold tip of the dildo between the two soft cheeks. The long pink object was slowly swallowed down by Yuki's ass, and with each inch of it disappearing inside, Kyo's lips parted more and more until he was crouching at the windowsill with his mouth gaping. NO!

He crouched down again, and without thinking twice, jumped away to his own windowsill, his heart beating like mad. Whatever Yuki was doing there was his own business! Kyo knew when to stop. He had disrespected Yuki by peeking at him like that. He and Yuki were even now. He gulped as sweat trickled down his temple. He... didn't know guys could put things in there... I-It wasn't like he was clueless, or anything like that-...! And yet... His mouth twitched. Why was Yuki doing it to himself?... It looked painful... "Mmm... Yes... Ahhn~ Yes~!... Ohomnmn... mn..." Kyo could feel his cheeks getting warm by that voice moaning like that. Biting his lip, he looked back at Yuki's window, before jumping back on it again, and timidly pushed the curtain aside.

By that time, Yuki had his face buried into his pillow, as his hand kept pushing the dildo greedily in and out. His legs were shaking, spread against the bed, sweating, allowing Kyo to see everything "Mm..." Yuki muffled. He suddenly lifted his head, showing how red his face was, and how his eyes darkened from pure lust as he let his free hand to wander down and pleasure his twitching erection "Ahh... Ahh... Ahhh... UHuhhh~!" his voice broke as his hands suddenly ceased moving and his essence was sprayed down to the bedsheets bellow. He panted, looking down at himself "Sh-Shit..." he muttered "I forgot the towel..."

Panting now as well, Kyo climbed down from the windowsill of his own bedroom's window, and with shaking hands, hurried to lock and cover it with the curtain. He could hear his heart pumping in his ears.

What had he just witnessed?
