It was almost two am in the morning. It was pitch black outside and inside. It has been about a month since that little "incident" happened between Kurogane and Fai, and the ninja still never figured out what went on, so of course he was completely normal. Fai, on the other hand, had trouble forgetting and getting over it. But he eventually just told himself it was an accident and moved on.

Inside the magician's room, Fai stirred in his barely their sleep. His eyes closed tightly then shot open quickly when he decided he couldn't sleep.

He sat up and rubbed his head, his hair was messy and curled up more than usual. He always did hate that, but luckily he was able to fix it without even looking. He paused for a second, then shifted out of bed and stood to his feet.

It seemed like he was a bit confused by his face. His eyes scanned the room from left then right. Suddenly he made a mad dash to the bathroom, which was just past Kurogane's room and beyond the hall way. The light was already lit, since they always kept the light on at night.

The small glow flowed over the magician's face, giving him an angelic touch. He stumbled over his feel a little as he bent down hovering over the toilet and started coughing softly.

He tightened his eyes and gripped his abdomen. He felt himself getting dizzy, then emptied his already empty stomach. He opened his eyes, sweat ran down his face as he panted heavily and shook as his body began to feel cold.

He had no idea why he just randomly started feeling sick. Maybe it was something he ate? No, he had been having the same normal meals he usually had.

The flu? No, he's been making sure that he'd stayed clean and germ free, besides, he got the flu before, and normally when he got it he would be in the bathroom for hours feeling sick until he threw up.

So then what was it? Maybe stress from that night, damn sex crazed ninja, it was his fault for getting drunk.

Fai stood up when he noticed some one standing at the door. He jumped and almost lost his balance.

"Oh! Kurogane...didn't see you there." The ninja was leaning on the open door, folding his arms. He didn't say anything for awhile, just stared-examined him.

Fai took this silent stare very awkwardly, he tried avoiding the taller mans shifted his weight from one foot to the other. Finally Kurogane broke the silence.

"So you getting sick?" He asked walking up to him, studying him like a book.

"Um...Yeah I suppose, but I mean... I don't think I am, it might just be something...I don't know." He tried explaining, but it was hard even explaining it to himself. He felt like hitting himself, he sounded so stupid and made completely no sense whatsoever.

"Uh...Alright then." Kurogane said a bit confused, but just went with it. He wasn't sure what to do in this situation, he never really felt like the caring type, but even he was human...some what.

Fai looked down and closed his hands over his stomach again. The pain didn't seem to want to subside, even though he wished it would. The mage fell on his knees again and started coughing more violently this time.

He bent his head down and threw up, releasing all he had left of his stomach and strength. When he was done he sat back on his legs and held onto his head.

Damn this...whatever it didn't want to go away, but he was feeling a tad better at the moment.

Kurogane walked beside him. He could tell he was in pain. He put his hand on his back in a comporting way and rubbed his back.

The mage didn't expect for him to do that. He jumped a bit at his touch and turned his head. "Kurogane?" He asked a bit confused.

The ninja just simply looked at him. "I'm sure you'll feel better once you've finished." He gave him a small reasoning smile. Fai just frowned a bit, of course he knew that, what did the ninja think he was? A child? Well, even though he felt like complaining that Kurogane was treating him like a three year old, he just smiled back.

Yeah yeah, sure he felt like he thought it was hopeless, but that's just his way of showing he cares. "Yeah," He looked down at the floor.

"I am feeling a lot better already." For some reason he felt like taking the ninja's hand and holding it tightly. He just felt the urge for him to hold him, but wasn't sure why.

"Good, so then you should go get some rest. Maybe you should stay home tomorrow."

"No no, I want to help you and Syaoran find Sakura's feather, I can't stay here." He said in an almost yelling tone. Kurogane looked at him like he just slapped him across the face. He put his hands up in front of him.

"Okay, okay, you can come with us, but if you're feeling sick tomorrow you're staying here, got it?" The magician calmed down.

"Alright." He used his knee as support and stood up. He still felt a bit shaky, but mostly hungry, oh God, he was starving. Maybe that's why he got sick? Well it kinda made sense, so that's what he wrote it up to. He groaned and held his stomach.

"But first I want to get something to eat." He turned around and before the ninja could make any last comment, he was gone, left Kurogane to stand there alone.

"O...k?" He just shrugged, it wasn't that surprising to him, he did just barf up everything he had, which wasn't much, so he should be hungry, right?

Kurogane followed him and silently watched. Whoa-he was consuming like the entire kitchen at once! Ok, well he shouldn't be THAT hungry!

The ninja just made a weird face. 'Well, at least maybe he'll gain a little weight for once, instead of weighing thirty pounds.'

He decided to leave him alone and just go back in his room to get some sleep.
To be continued.
