Thanks to everyone who reviewed! I have some news... I might be losing my internet soon. So if I don't update for a while, you'll know why. It sucks but we're trying everything we can do to fix it. So please don't give up on me! I decided to update this one since the last part was so short.

Enjoy!

That Sunday morning Adrian woke up without the alarm clock. He about gave his mother a heart attack when he walked out of his room to the bathroom so early. She was still in her nightgown and heading downstairs for coffee.

"Adrian?" She gasped, looking her son up and down. He was only wearing a pair of black sweatpants.

He gave her a small smile. "Morning."

"You're... up early."

He shrugged. "Just woke up."

"You never 'just' wake up. Usually I have to drag you out of bed. It's five in the morning. Did you know that?"

He laughed at her tone. "Yes mother. I know. Now if you'll excuse me, I'd like to shower." He bowed to her and walked into his bathroom, closing the door behind him.

She stared at the white door before a nice smile came to her lips. "I knew this would be a good thing for him. But... I have a feeling he's only this excited because of that boy..." She turned and headed down the stairs in thought.

Adrian, in fact, was excited. He was seeing Kiba two days in row. He showered and blow dried his hair. But he didn't style it. He just let it fall normally. Which was still his normal 'over the eye' fringe. He decided against eye liner. People stared at him enough. He didn't need the entire church watching him.

He dressed nicely for his mother's sake. Nice black slacks and a white button up shirt. He felt a little out of place but refused to not wear his collar. Izzy still had his old one, so he chose to wear his black collar that didn't have studs. Less intimidating he supposed.

He looked at himself in the mirror and scowled a bit. He didn't look like himself. The collar was the only thing that seemed... Adrian. He bit his lip and tried to fix his hair in a way that would suit him best. Eventually he gave up and didn't care about his hair anymore. His eyes looked bigger without eyeliner. It was something he wasn't use to.

There was a knock on his door. "Adrian? We're leaving."

"Ok."

His parents were driving separately then him. They had to leave before him to help out at the church. Adrian wasn't sure what they were doing but he really didn't care. He heard the front door slam and assumed they had left. He sighed and grumbled under his breath.

"Screw it..." He grabbed his eyeliner and applied it. Just not as thickly as he normally did. He was partially satisfied with how he looked. He glanced at his watch and decided to leave. He grabbed his wallet and keys and headed downstairs.

Adrian closed his car door and walked up to the big white church. He noticed there was a lot of people around, most were heading inside. He felt so out of place it scared him. Until he spotted Kiba. The brunette was dressed like he normal was but seemed like he atleast tried to comb his spiky hair. He failed though... But Adrian didn't care. He liked his hair like that.

Kiba's face brightened up when he noticed Adrian walking toward him. He blinked in surprise at the boy. He was dressed better then he thought but the collar and eyeliner still made him Adrian. Adrian smiled and ran up to him.

"Hey."

"Hey." Kiba looked him up and down.

"Where's Akamaru?"

"With a friend. I figured I really couldn't bring a dog into church."

Adrian smiled. "Yea... So... shall we?"

Kiba shrugged and turned. "After you."

Adrian nodded at him and headed inside. The church was so huge. They decide to sit near the back since most people were near the front. Neither boy really wanted to get noticed. They slid into the red pew unnoticed and sat close enough to where they were almost touching.

There was small chatter among the church goers as everyone found their seats and prepared for service. Adrian swallowed hard and was starting to re-think his decision. Was this a good idea? Sure, he was seeing Kiba again but what was he about to have to listen to? He had no idea...

The chatter died down as the pastor walked up the small set of stairs to the wooden podium. Everyone was silent as the pastor placed his black bible on the podium and opened it. Both boys watched him closely. The grey haired man smiled and looked over everyone.

"Welcome and good morning. Let's start this morning of with a prayer, Shall we?" Everyone bowed their head along with the pastor. Adrian and Kiba glanced at each other before doing so as well. The pastor began to pray out loud. He kept mentioning names, but Adrian had no idea who they were. He did catch one name though. He remembered it as the Manson boy who was fighting in Iraq. So he was praying for people from the church and family. People that he decided needed it.

When the prayer was done, everyone said, "Amen" and the pastor began his sermon. Adrian didn't really pay to much attention to it. In fact, he more or less spaced out. All he got out of it was something about "spreading Jesus' love" or something along those lines. A quarter through the sermon, Adrian almost jumped when Kiba leaned over to whisper in his ear.

"Do you really believe all this stuff?" He asked softly, his hot breath against Adrian's ear. Adrian involuntarily shivered and couldn't really speak. So he shook his head. Kiba smirked softly. "Do you want to leave?" Adrian nodded.

Quietly, they both got to their feet and slipped out of the church unnoticed. Adrian sighed once they were outside. The tension from that room was gone and the fresh air was all he really needed. He stretched and wondered over to his car, motioning for Kiba to follow.

Once they reached Adrian's black Mercedes Kiba sighed softly to himself. Rich boy... Just his luck. Adrian paid no notice to Kiba's sigh as he unlocked his car and dug in the back seat. He pulled out what he was looking for and stood up straight.

He unbuttoned his white shirt and took it off, revealing a white tank top. He shivered at the slight cold before slipping the hoodie he grabbed over his head. Kiba watched all this with slightly wide eyes. He saw more of the boy then he was use to. Just seeing his bare arms was something. They were pale and soft but surprisingly the boy had some muscle.

Adrian blinked when he noticed Kiba staring. Realizing he was caught, Kiba shifted his eyes to the ground. Adrian watched him for a moment before suddenly snapping his fingers.

"Oh yea!"

Kiba jumped at the boy's sudden out burst. Adrian just grinned at him and moved to the back of his car. Kiba raised an eyebrow and followed him, his hands in his pockets. The raven haired boy popped his trunk and pulled out a black back pack.

Adrian grinned and held it out to Kiba. "Here."

Kiba eyed the bag, suspiciously. "What is it...?"

Adrian rolled his eyes and shut his trunk, sitting Th bag on top of it. "Well, since you're stubborn and don't want to live with me-"

"I never said that." He cut the boy off. Adrian blinked and turned to look at him while he unzipped the bag. "It's not that I don't want to. I just don't want to be a burden..." He sighed. "We've been through this already."

Adrian sighed and waved his hand at him. "Yea, Yea. Anyway, since you're stuck out here and it's getting colder. I figured," He reached into the bag and pulled out a nice grey and white fuzzy winter coat. "You could use this."

Kiba stared at the coat. "Wha-"

"This too!" He pulled out a nice big blue blanket. "For Akamaru and you. So you both don't freeze." Kiba stared at him. "I can't have my only friend freezing to death now can I?"

Kiba blushed slightly and swallowed the lump in his throat. "I... Can't accept this."

"Oh!" Adrian dug deeper in the bag and pulled out a nice sized bag of puppy chow. "Food for Akamaru. You know, so you can spend what little money you DO have on food for yourself instead of on Akamaru."

Kiba looked from Adrian to the things he brought then back to the boy. "Adrian..."

His green eyes sparkled and he put the things back into the bag. "Don't pull that 'burden' crap because this is not a burden. The food was nothing and the blanket was one I found in the closet. Plus the coat is my dad's old one that he said I could have." He zipped the bag up and turned back to Kiba. "Don't you dare say you won't take it."

Kiba's heart skipped at the intense gaze Adrian was giving him. "But..."

"No buts." Adrian pouted slightly. "You won't take it? I'm doing this out of the kindness of my heart." He huffed. "Besides, I care about you. Thus, I want to help you any way I can."

Kiba froze. "You... care about me?"

"Of course I do silly." He shoved the bag into Kiba's arms. "No take it. I won't take no for an answer."

Kiba stared at him a moment before sighing. "Alright."

"Yay!" Adrian bounced a little and clapped his hands.

Kiba blushed and looked away, running his free hand through his hair. "Thank you..."

He grinned. "Your welcome!"

After Kiba got over his embarrassment, Adrian invited him to sit in his car and listen to music. They talked for almost an hour in his car about nothing too important. Just getting to know each other. They talked about music and Adrian even ranted to Kiba about Naruto. The brunette couldn't help but laugh. At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder what made him so special. Adrian wouldn't let Naruto in... So why was he letting Kiba in? It was a question that he couldn't ask but really wanted the answer to.

Before they both knew it, the church bells were ringing to signalize that the service was over. They got out of the car and Kiba walked over to Adrian's side. People had yet to actually leave the building.

"I guess I'll see you next Saturday?" Kiba asked, hopeful.

Adrian grinned. "Why don't you come to lunch with us?" He had mentioned earlier that his parents were making him go to lunch with them after church. It was something he wasn't really looking forward too since he was sure they'd ask what he thought of the service and he wasn't even there.

Kiba shook his head. "Thanks but that's ok. I have a feeling your parents don't like me anyway."

Adrian blinked in surprise. "It was their idea for you to stay with us..."

He shrugged. "I don't think that's it..." He sighed, shaking his head. "Forget it." He shifted his eyes to the church doors as they opened and people spilled out. "Thank for offering though. And thanks for this." He held up the black bag.

"You're welcome." He said softly.

Kiba smiled at him and leaned over, kissing his cheek. Adrian blushed a deep red causing Kiba to chuckle. "Saturday?"

Adrian swallowed hard and nodded his head. "Yea. Saturday."

"See you then." Kiba winked at him and walked away, heading down the sidewalk and disappearing behind a fence.

Adrian sighed and held a hand to his chest over his heart that was beating like crazy. "Ah damn what that boy does to me..."

"Adrian darling!" He looked up at his mother's voice. She and his father were walking towards him. "Ready to go?"

"Uh yea." She blinked and looked him up and down. "Is that what you wore?"

He laughed softly. "No. I just put this hoodie on. It's kinda chilly."

She smiled in relief. "Oh good! Then to lunch we go!" She skipped off toward their car.

Edward, Adrian's father, stayed behind for a moment. "Adrian?"

"Hm?" Edward narrowed his eyes slightly at his son. "Ah, I mean, yes?"

His face softened. "I'm glad you came today."

Adrian blinked then nodded. "Yea... Uh, I'll follow you."

His father nodded and turned, walking toward his car. Adrian sighed and got into his car. His parents were not going to be happy when they found out he skipped out of church. But... It was totally worth it.

Hm... I think that was a very good chapter. Pretty good length compared to the other parts, don't cha think? Told ya these would be getting longer. So, next part is a pretty important talk between Adrian and his parents. About Kiba... uh-oh...

Anyway! Really important issue here. I might lose my internet very soon. So if I don't update soon, you'll know why. I apologize and we're doing everything we can to fix it or atleast find something else. It sucks too... -pouts- since I'm on a roll with my fanfiction stories! And I have so many readers... if I disappear for so long I'll lose all of you! I don't want that to happen!!

-Sigh- Anyway... Please review!

Thanks!
