Drabble 9: Mint for Suspicion

"Kaoru." He stopped and waited for Kyoya to approach him.

"You need to speak with me?" he asked.

Kyoya nodded and reached into his pocket, offering its contents to Kaoru. "Gum?"

"Sure," he replied, taking the mint flavored confection.

"Renge-san's causing trouble," Kyoya stated.

"What's she up to?"

"She's helping a commoner find her suitor. He leaves her flowers."

Kaoru's pulse quickened. "I see."

"I want you to be watchful."

"I will."

As Kaoru began to walk away, Kyoya called out to him.

"Kaoru, don't take that message lightly."

Kaoru stilled. If Kyoya was suspicious, he'd have to be careful.
