Hiya!

I'm sooooo relieved. My test week's over and I aced all my tests. Even Physics (which is a really big thing for me). and I've been staying at my friend's house for a few days. It's funny:) Wednesday is my birthday-party, together with one of my friends. My friends have been planning something for weeks, and I'm dying to find out what it is. Yay:D

Lately, I've been writing another TMM story. Problem is, I've been writing it in a notebook. So, I'm going to put the first two chapters up, and I'm going to let you people decide if I should continue writing it! Well, I'll probably keep writing it, I just won't put it on FF. Well, enjoy all the chapters!

Kishu p.o.v.

I wasn't sure where I was at first when I woke up. But Kishu's sleeping profile made me remember everything, including the very disturbing dream I had had last night. I blushed a little just thinking about it. Why on earth was I dreaming about kissing Kishu? It's not like he would ever actually want to kiss me. That thought made me a little sad for some reason.

My thoughts didn't linger on that subject very long. The fact that Kishu was sleeping next to me, practically snuggling me in his sleep, was causing butterflies to run a rampage in my stomach. What the heck was he doing next to me?

'Kishu,' I whispered. I shook him a little. 'Wake up.'

'Just a few more minutes,' Kishu mumbled, grinning a little. His hands slid around my waist and pulled me even closer to him than I already was. He started kissing my neck, and I gave a small 'eep!'. My heart was pumping uncontrollably. Just then kishu seemed to realize what he was doing, because he pulled back and looked at me in astonishment. I was sure I was beet-red by now.

'You... uhm... I... well...'

'What are you doing here?' I demanded. 'Next to me, I mean.'

'Uhm, well, I needed some sleep, and this is the only bed.' Damn. hadn't thought of that. Looks like we'll be sharing a bed while we're travelling together.

'Were you dreaming about someone?' I asked, remembering what he had been doing to me with a slight blush. But kishu blushed even more, and I just had to laugh. 'You like someone, don't you? Have you already confessed? Is she your girlfriend now?' I started feeling guilty when I asked these questions. Was kishu's girlfriend worrying about his safety right now?

'Yeah, fine, I like someone,' kishu huffed. 'But she doesn't know. She has no idea. She's too dense to realize.'

I smacked his arm. 'Dummy! Don't call your crush dense! She'll get mad when she finds out!' I smacked his arm again. 'And what are you doing helping me, when you should be winning that girls heart?'

He stared at me with a very strange look in his eyes.

'What?'

Kishu p.o.v.

Un. Be. Liev. A. Ble. How can anyone be that dense?

Or maybe I'm just not showing it properly.

Only one way to help that, right?

'I have told her. But I don't think she heard me. I'll say it again, every day, until she finally understands.' I looked ichigo straight in the eye. 'I love her. I love her so much, it actually felt as if my heart had been taken away when she left. She's back now, and I'm not going to let her go without letting her know how I really feel about her.'

She's got to understand now, right?

Wrong. So, so wrong.

Her expression seemed to turn... sad? No, probably not. An emotion I couldn't understand. Then it turned expressionless. She turned away from me.

'You really haven't changed much, you know. From when we were kids. You're still an idiot.' I saw her smile a little, and I knew what she was thinking about.

Flashback (chibi-kishu p.o.v.)

I sat there under the big oak tree, far away from where all the other kids were playing, sniffling. They were so mean.

'What's wrong?' a tiny voice asked me. I looked up to a cute face surrounded by bright red hair and with brown eyes. She was looking at me curiously, and yet worried at the same time. I recognized her as the new girl, Momomiya Ichigo.

'They're teasing me,' I cried. 'Because of my ears.'

'What's wrong with them?'

I bet I looked shocked. Couldn't she see what was wrong with them? They were very pointy ears. My nickname since I had come to this school had always been elf-ears. And I hated it. I hated my ears.

'They're too pointy.'

Ichigo grinned at me. 'I like them! They suit you, and they look like cat-ears! That's my favourite animal. What about you?'

I just stared at Ichigo in amazement. Was this girl real? It couldn't be, right? She was accepting me... she even said she liked my ears! Could it really be...?

'...I like cats...' I mumbled quietly after some time.

Ichigo jumped up and down excitedly. 'Great! Wanna play cats with me Kishu-kun? It's really fun!' she reached out her hand and, hesitantly, I took it. She pulled me up easily, and started pulling me all around. 'I like you, Kishu-kun!' she called over her shoulder, and my heart exploded.

That was the day that I had met Ichigo. That was the day I had started loving my ears. That was the day I gave my heart away.

End flashback

I smiled too at the memory. 'Guess I know why you're favourite animal's a cat now, huh?'

She shook her head. 'Honestly, I should've never said. I could've exposed us then and there. My parents shouldn't have sent me to school at such a young age.'

'Why did they, then? Isn't there some cat-colony somewhere were all the cats live?'

'Of course there are. Multiple ones, at least. But my parents are part of a group of cats who think we should keep more in touch with our human side, seeing as it's there.' She shook her head again. 'You know, I spent most of my happiest times at school, and yet, in the end, that's exactly why I got sent to prison. Because I had actually thought I could be part of this world.'

'I'm glad,' I whispered. She whipped her head round at me and stared with those big brown eyes. 'that you came to our school anyway. That you decided to join our world. I wouldn't have met you otherwise.' I grinned at her. 'Best friends till the end, ey, kitten?'

She smiled. 'We've been past the end already. Best friends forever.'
