~~~~~~~~~~Previously on Hidden Eyes~~~~~~~~~~

Mukuro waits for a couple of minutes of Allen shifting and moving around before he calms down into his comfortable spot. Allen is slowly drifting to sleep before he feels the bed creak as extra weight rests on it. Then he feels Mukuro's cool breath on his neck. Allen then feels startled and shifts suddenly so that…. Mukuro ends up pressing his cold lips firmly on Allen's neck. Allen gasps in surprise and quickly shifts away from Mukuro's body, feeling his cheeks heating up. Mukuro froze there quietly, unsure of what just happened. ...What part of his body did I kiss?

Allen did not get that much sleep that night.

~~~~~~~~~~And Now It Continues~~~~~~~~~~

The next morning, Komui is presenting new information regarding the Ziva Cult in front of everyone present in the conference room.

Allen is yawning quietly to himself as a result from little sleep. He glances to his side where Mukuro is sitting, who is listening in slight interest to what Komui is saying. I can't believe he kissed the back of my neck! ...Then again, it was a bit of an accident. He touches the back of his neck just from the thought of last night, trying not to blush in front of everyone. His lips felt so cool and soft… He eventually shakes any more thoughts from his head and listens to what else Komui has to say.

Mukuro, on the other hand, is also thinking about last night. His body was very warm. I could not help but…...enjoy the sensation. Shame he never told me what part of his body did I kiss…it is not like I kissed him anywhere questionable, right?

"The Ziva has ceased with any activity this month, so this would be a good opportunity to infiltrate the Eastern District and find any more information on what the Ziva is planning to do next. Therefore, I have chosen two agents to go there in disguise as two Zivian citizens and live within the central area of the city for one week. I've taken the liberty of renting an apartment for both agents to live in comfortably. The mission is to obtain as much confidential information from the Ziva headquarters as you can. For this mission, I've chosen the two of you, Allen and Mukuro," Komui says, directing his attention to Allen and Mukuro. "Any objections? After all, this is the first time we're doing something this risky. That's why I trust the both of you to complete the mission."

"...Very well then," Mukuro says nonchalantly. "I am not responsible for any...trouble that I might cause for the mission, right~?"

"Don't get your hopes up too much, all right," Komui says with an amused smirk.

Allen remains silent the entire time as soon as he heard about his first mission with Mukuro. My first mission with Mukuro...and I'm going to live with him ALONE in an apartment for ONE WEEK?! Will we have to share a bed together?! Okay, Allen, calm down. I'm sure Komui would have the common sense to give us an apartment with separate rooms, right? ...Right?

Mukuro and Allen are walking together on a gravel road for a long journey to the Eastern District. The sun is above their heads, making the heat incredibly unbearable. Allen is wiping the sweat from his forehead and glances over at Mukuro...with shock. W-What?! How is he not sweating?! He's still wearing EVERY SINGLE PART of the uniform! I had to take off my jacket, damn it! Allen continues to stare up at Mukuro.

Eventually, Mukuro feels like he is being watched, but not in a threatening way. "Something wrong, boy?"

"Ah, no! Nothing's wrong...it's just…...I'm amazed that you're not sweating," Allen explains to Mukuro.

"...Why would I have the need to sweat?"

"Eh, it's not that you would WANT to sweat...it's just that you're SUPPOSED to sweat…..never mind! Forget I said anything," Allen quickly says before giving up on the conversation. Why am I having such a hard time talking to him? I can talk to Lavi just fine, no matter how many times I check HIM out! But when I look at Mukuro… Allen glances at Mukuro and looks away quickly. I can't even talk to him properly! Gosh, I think it would be worse if I could see his face...he must have a really good-looking face. Allen continues to walk next to Mukuro, still lost in this thoughts.

"Hm, boy. I feel that we have some unwelcoming company."

Allen looks up to see two groups of Infected charging towards them from opposite directions. Allen and Mukuro split into two different directions to fend off the Infected. Allen runs and skewers numerous Infected with his long sharp claw fingers before they can dig their teeth into Allen's flesh. He avoids the other Infected by jumping back and using his sleeves to prevent any infectious blood from getting on his face. He glances over to where Mukuro is. Mukuro is standing there, dragging an Infected by wrapping one of his chains around its neck. He then grabs both ends of the chains and pulls on them harshly until the Infected's neck snapped violently and its head falls to the ground, squirting pints of blood into the dirt. Mukuro loosens the chain around its neck and senses another Infected running towards him from the side. He tosses the chain around it for the chain to wrap around its waist and pulls on the chain fast enough for the chain to cut the Infected in half.

Eventually, all the Infected's lifeless bodies are on the ground, with a thick pool of blood underneath all the bodies. Allen walks over to Mukuro. "Mukuro, are you all right?"

"Yes, I am fine. Are you all right, boy?"

"Yeah." Allen notices that Mukuro has a bit of blood on his left cheek. He reaches up to wipe the blood off with his sleeve. "You have a bit of blood on your face."

"Oh...thank you."

As Allen pulls his gloved hand away, Mukuro turns his head and his lips brush against the palm of Allen's hand. Allen pulls his hand close to his chest, blushing a bit. Gosh, his lips are really soft…I can feel them through the glove. He clears his throat. "All right, Mukuro, let's get going. We still got a long way to go."

And Allen and Mukuro continue on their way, leaving the bodies to rot and bake under the hot sun.

Allen and Mukuro are changing their clothes within a secluded area of the forest nearby the city. Allen is folding his uniform into a duffel bag that he brought with him. He glances behind him to see that Mukuro is slowly changing into his disguise, currently half-naked at the moment. Allen stares long and hard at Mukuro's smooth, pale back. He watches him intently, taking note that when Mukuro puts on his shirt, the chains phase through the shirt. Wha? ...The chains aren't real? That would explain why they don't seem to end...but why are the chains there in the first place? I want to ask him, but...I don't know how he'll react. Allen looks away after he realizes that he has been staring at him for more than a few minutes. "Are you ready to go, Mukuro?"

"Yes...since we will be undercover as a couple, I should tell you what your name will be."

"Right, and you tell me yours so- Wait, did you say that we're going to be a couple?"

"Yes~ That man Komui says that it would be more convincing if we declare that we are going out, so none of the officials question why two male citizens are living together."

"W-We can't just be roommates?!" Allen is starting to panic.

"Oya? Do you have a problem with me being your lover?" Mukuro takes a couple steps closer towards Allen.

Allen takes a couple steps back. "N-No! I mean, yes! No, wait! I-I don't have a problem with you-"

"You do not mind? So it will be perfectly fine if we sleep together, correct~?"

Allen is fortunate that Mukuro cannot see him because he is blushing quite a bit right now. He does not know how to feel right now. He feels nervous about the whole situation, but at the same time...he is also curious and a little eager. I don't know what to do! I can't help but want to feel his warm body against me again, but...but...THIS IS WRONG! I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT HIM! Allen soon realizes that he backed up against a tree with Mukuro trapping him in his arms. "Ah...um...yes?"

"...You were very quiet. Is something on your mind? You did not get to answer my questions~"

"...We should finish putting on our disguises!" Allen gently pushes Mukuro away and goes to finish putting on his disguise. Mukuro is pleasantly surprised that Allen pushed him away instead of standing still, stuttering.

Both Allen's and Mukuro's clothes are Zivian citizen clothing, which is all dark red in color. Allen is wearing green eye contacts and a medium-length dark brown hair wig. Mukuro still has the blindfold on but has a short-length blond hair wig, even though he and Allen had a bit of difficulty wrapping his long blue hair to tuck under the wig. They manage to walk past security at the city gates without too much trouble after showing the guards their perfectly forged ID cards. They walk towards the apartment complex that they will be living in.

The city itself appears unwelcoming, with a blood-red evening sky making all the charcoal-like brick buildings look even more sinister. The streets are littered with trash and remains of rotting human and Infected corpses. Citizens are walking along sidewalks, never acknowledging the corpses as they walk past them. Some are muttering Zivian prayers to themselves while others are muttering to themselves almost maniacally.

Allen and Mukuro manage to enter the complex and find their apartment before hearing a loud siren outside. "What's going on outside," Allen mutters to himself and walks towards the window to take a look outside. Mukuro stands still and crinkles his nose from the moldy scent. Allen is staring outside to see that all the citizens are running frantically into their homes or stores and shutting their doors firmly. Minutes pass and Zivian officials are driving down the road via carriage, whipping the Infected that are pulling the carriage. The four Infected are shrieking in agony within their rusty iron muzzles, clawing at the grounds with their fingerless stubby hands, as they drag the heavy carriage strapped onto them. Allen looks in slight shock and eventually shuts the blinds. "They must be patrolling the city…" Allen tries to shake the image out of his head and both he and Mukuro go to unpack their things to settle down.

Later that night, Allen is lying down in his own twin-sized bed, both relieved and disappointed that there are two separate beds. He turns off the bedside lamp and glances at Mukuro. "Good night, Mukuro."

"Good night...Allen."

Allen thought he saw something glowing on Mukuro's face, where his blindfold would be. However, Mukuro turned around to settle into his own bed before Allen can confirm what he saw. Allen closes his eyes, waiting for sleep to kick in, before he ends up blushing a bit. Mukuro said my name for the first time. He smiles a bit before drifting into sleep.

Mukuro, on the other hand, tries to place a hand over his blindfold only for the spell to repel it back. He grunted a bit from the shock and sighs quietly. This blindfold is getting aggravating...I never thought I would want to see so badly...especially seeing the faces of people I am talking to… He listens to the distant Infected shrieks and Allen's quiet breathing nearby before lying still on the bed for the night.

Any predictions for the next chapter? What will happen for Mukuro? Will he be able to get the blind-fold off?
