It was around three am. The normal person would be asleep around this time. But no one said our little bishi was normal. Ever since that night two months ago...When the two of them got drunk, it hasn't been the same.
Fai hasn't gotten any sleep at all. "It's so weird..." The ninja was still oblivious to what had happened. And when he looked back on it, Fai wouldn't have changed a thing. The fact is, he had stepped over that line that he had drawn for himself. He told himself not to get involved with anyone. So then why was he feeling this way towards Kurogane?
He shifted from being on his side to laying on his back. He stared up at the wall in his room while he rubbed the side of his aching stomach. Why was he feeling so sick? Whatever he got a few weeks ago should have went away by now, or so he thought.
Fai wasn't completely focused on his illness, however. His mind kept drawing images of a certain black haired ninja.
"I should tell him..." He began to talk out loud. "But what if he gets mad at me? No...He shouldn't, after all, it's not my fault...On the other hand, he would probably say that I should have stopped him...On another hand..oh wait, that's three hands, that doesn't work. Unless it's an alien hand! (poor thing is so confused) Alright, on another, alien, hand, he knows he's much stronger than me, so maybe he would feel bad about it...Oh...I have no idea what to do any more..." He shifted back onto his side, feeling more discomfort in his stomach.
"He deserves to know...But I deserve to live...Oh stop it Fai, it's not like he's going to kill you...Probably." After much debating, he decided to go with his gut and tell him how he really felt, and about that one fateful night.
"Okay, I can't keep hiding it!" He shot up from his laying position and stood up. Much too quickly, though. His head began to swim in the darkness and his vision blurred a bit. But that didn't stop him from pacing out his door and right into Kurogane's room.
The ninja was fast asleep, not moving at all, like usual. Fai began to question whether he should proceed. It would be rude to wake him up now. Wait, what was he thinking? After all the rude things Kurogane has done?
He cautiously walked up to the sleeping male. "Kurogane...?" He whispered.
"Nng..." He moved a little and twitched his eyes. Fai guessed that he was only half asleep. "What the hell Fai? What do you want?" Well, there was one rude thing...
"It's just...I wanted to tell you something." Fai looked down a bit embarrassed.
"Can't it wait until morning?" Kurogane growled in response.
"I think I have waited long enough. It's important. It need to be said now." Kurogane sat up slowly and waited for the mage to continue. Fai took a deep breath and prepared himself for the reaction that was to come from the nin.
"Kurogane...I'm just going to get right to the point, no more beating around the bush this time. I've been thinking, and Kurogane, I think I l-..." He suddenly stopped in mid sentence when he felt the room spin around him.
"What?" Kurogane asked a bit confused. Then something happened that he wasn't expecting. Fai dropped to the floor in pain and gasped. He gripped his stomach in pain.
Kurogane rushed over to him within a second, wrapped an arm around his waist, and helped him up. "Hey, what's wrong?" He asked a bit concerned. Fai closed his eyes tightly, the pain was unbearable.
"I feel...sick..." He spoke in a little whimper. Kurogane lifted him up and carried him bridal style. "That's it, I've had enough of this shit, you're going to the doctor whether you like it or not."
fai buried his face deep into Kurogane's chest, tears brimming his eyes. "Okay..." He fought the urge to cry right then and there, from both the pain, and the happiness he was feeling from being in Kurogane's arms.
