A/N: Hi everyone! Well, I don't have much to say, so here's the next chapter that is dedicated to…everyone who's read this story and everyone's encouraging reviews.
Fay never failed to surprise Kurogane. It felt like every day he learned something new about his boyfriend. However, there were things that Fay always did, always.
For instance, when Fay eats, he pushes his food around on the plate so that none of the different food touches. Then, he proceeds to eat his food by choking down what he doesn't like first, and then savoring each bite of the food he does like.
When the mage becomes agitated or frustrated, he always runs his left hand through his light blonde hair as if expecting to find an answer to his problem buried in the pale locks. He also plays with his fingernails when he is nervous.
Learning Kurogane's native language took concentration. When the magician was really concentrating, he never failed to stick his tongue out of the right side of his mouth tap his left foot on the ground when he was trying to write kanji.
Since Tomoyo had decided that Fay was going to be her new mannequin, she was constantly calling him to the sewing room. When the ex-vampire is with his ninja when she calls, the blonde consistently kisses the tip of Kurogane's nose and skips off, telling Kurogane not to miss him too much over his shoulder, leaving Kurogane dreading what frilly thing his lover would most definitely be coming back in.
And finally, Kurogane knew when Fay was truly content because the heterochromatic eyed mage would smile softly, close his eyes, and let out a happy sigh against Kurogane's shoulder.
Fay knew almost everything about his spiky haired lover. He was so predictable it was almost like déjà vu. His likes, dislikes, and neutrals never changed.
Whenever Fay pounced on Kurogane with one of his original nicknames, Kurogane always responded the same way by yelling at him and ordering the magician to call him by his proper name even though he knew it would never happen.
Kurogane always trained the recruits the same way every day. He started the day by making them run 10 laps around the enormous castle and then he had them train with swords, knives, bows, and hand to hand combat (in that order). Fay liked to watch his ninja in his element. He looked so relaxed, well, as much relaxed as a ninja could look anyway.
Patience is a virtue. However, it is not a virtue that Kurogane possesses. When he becomes impatient, especially when he's waiting for Fay to come back from one of his fitting sessions with Tomoyo, he paces. He paces so much that he almost wears a groove in the floor. Fay never fails to tease Kurogane about this fact, and this almost always gets a rise out of the gruff warrior.
Even though they were born in two totally different worlds, they know almost everything about the other. Nothing escapes their notice. They know so much, they almost blend into one person.
"Kuro-poo! I missed you so much!" Fay, who'd just come back from the sewing room, proceeded to glomp his boyfriend, interrupting him in mid-pace.
"Aww, you were getting impatient weren't you?" Fay pointed to the footprints in the grass.
"Tch. You don't know what you're saying," replied the ninja.
"Oh yes I do! I know everything about you!" Fay giggled. He settled himself down and plopped himself down into a sitting position, dragging Kurogane down with him. He smiled, let out a happy sigh, and nuzzled his lover's shoulder.
"You're happy today aren't you idiot?" asked Kurogane.
"Hyuu! Kuro-pipi always knows what I'm thinking!"
Kurogane blushed. "Well, I've known you long enough!"
"That's not just it! Kurogane notices things because he loves me!"
"Tch."
