"Keito-Chan Keito-Chan get up quick" Chibi whispered shaking Keito as best as he could. Keito's eyes opened slowly and he rolled onto his back. He blinked the sleep out of his eyes and looked around the room. It took him a moment to remember where he was. From the kitchen came the sounds and smells of cooking. Keito looked at chibi.

"What's going on?" He asked sitting up. Chibi sat on his shoulder.

"You're in that guys house you fell asleep" Chibi whispered. Keito nodded and looked around.

"right…"

"so your up huh brat" Ryuzaki said from the doorway. Keito jumped a bit surprised. He wondered if Ryuzaki had heard him talking to Chibi. Keito pushed his bangs out of his eyes. He looked at Ryuzaki and somehow felt that he looked familiar.

"Quit staring at me and eat. Then get out of my house" Ryuzaki said. Keito looked and was surprised to find a plate with eggs and toast sitting in front of him. His stomach growled and he started to eat. Ryuzaki stood in the door way watching.

" Thank you" Keito said smiling at Ryuzaki "I didn't realize how hungry I was"

"Whatever. Are you going to leave now?" Ryuzaki asked. Keito nodded and got up.

"okay I will. Thank you very much um…"

"still not telling you" he said. Keito nodded again and walked to the doorway putting on his shoes. Ryuzaki watched him carefully.

"Keito-Chan this guy worries me hurry up" Chibi whispered. Keito finished tying his shoes and stood up. He turned to Ryuzaki and bowed.

"thank you very much. I'll be on my way now" Keito said before running out. Ryuzaki leaned against the door frame a smirk on his face.

"stay away from that place Keito-Chan… it has a bad feel." Chibi said huddling closer to Keito.

"what do you mean bad feel?"

"I don't know… it makes me shiver. Just stay away from that guy all together."

"Chibi that's not very nice. I mean he was kind enough to let me spend the night and he helped me with my injuries." Keito said quietly as he entered the dorm building. Chibi shook his head.

"Don't be too trusting Keito-Chan" Chibi said. Keito shrugged and took his keys out of his pockets unlocking the door to his room.

"Hiya kei-kun" a familiar little chara yelled flying around Keito's head. Keito blinked in surprise.

"Xavier what are you doing here?" Keito asked as the small chara sat on his free shoulder. Xavier grinned.

"Not just me Kei-kun" Xavier said pointing into the room. Keito's eyes widened and he ran in.

Ryushi sat on the window sill a cigarette in his mouth and his eyes closed. He had cut his hair which was now all black and he wore a white button up shirt with the top few buttons undone showing just the right amount of his chest. He had rolled up the sleeves of the shirt and it was untucked. Keito stood there quietly looking at Ryushi. Blood rushed to his face and his lips turned up in a smile. He walked over to Ryushi and touched his hand lightly as though afraid he might disappear.

Ryushi's eyes opened and he took Keito's hand pulling him close. Keito hugged him tight and buried his face in Ryushi's shirt. Ryushi smirked.

"What did you miss me that much brat?" Ryushi asked with a soft chuckle. Keito nodded and looked up at Ryushi. Ryushi brushed Keito's bangs from his face.

"Yes I did miss you a lot" Keito said blushing more. Like before he felt his feelings welling up inside of him. He knew without a doubt that he still loved Ryushi.

"Ryushi… I" Keito started to say. Ryushi cut him off by kissing him. Keito blushed more and he leaned into the kiss letting his senses leave him, Ryushi's arms wrapped around Keito's waist pulling him closer still. After a bit Ryushi pulled away, breathing a bit heavily. Keito was in the same, possibly worse, condition. He found himself unable to stand. With a sigh Ryushi picked up the smaller man and carried him to the bed and sitting him down.

" you didn't let me finish" Keito said still out of breath. Ryushi looked down at him.

"Finish what?"

"what I was saying." Keito said with a frown. Ryushi sighed and plopped onto the bed.

"you really know how to ruin a mood brat" Ryushi said. Keito looked at him.

"I had something important to say and you just cut me off"

"oh did i? I didn't notice" Ryushi said his voice returning to his usual emotionless tone.

"Ryushi are you even paying attention?" Keito asked, "this is really important"

"fine fine go ahead" Ryushi said putting his hands behind his head. Keito looked at him a frown on his face.

"do you have to be so rude?" Keito asked. Ryushi sighed and sat up.

"Keito if you have something to say then its best you say it now. I have to leave soon" Ryushi said.

"what do you mean leave? You just got here" Keito said. Ryushi shook his head.

"I've been here since last night"

"really. Sorry I was working?" Keito lied. Ryushi's blue eyes met Keito's. Keito knew right away that Ryushi knew he was lying. He looked away unable to meet Ryushi's eyes.

"I went to the diner. Zane said you ran out" Ryushi said watching Keito to judge his reaction. Keito fidgeted nervously.

"I wasn't feeling good so I went for a walk" Keito said, 'that part is true' Keito thought.

"All night?"

"I got hurt and I didn't want to walk all the way back so I stayed at a friend's house" Keito lied again.

"what friend?"

"why do you care!" Keito yelled. Right away he covered his mouth. Ryushi looked away. His face looked emotionless like usual but his eyes showed his hurt.

"Ryushi i…"

"your right why should I care" Ryushi said coldly. "it's not like I'm important to you. I'm just someone you can push out of your mind whenever you feel like falling for someone else"

"Ryushi that's not what i…"

"Whatever Keito, Sorry to have bothered you. I'll let you and your 'Friend' Continue whatever little lie you were living" Ryushi said standing up and walking towards the door. Keito stood up.

"Ryushi you jerk! If you would have paid attention you would know that I was trying to tell you I love you!" Keito yelled. Ryushi froze one hand on the door. Keito walked over to him and wrapped his arms around his waist hugging him tight.

"Damn it you jerk. I hate being such a girl" Keito said laying his head on Ryushi's back.

"I was thinking Keito" Ryushi said his face emotionless.

"huh?" Keito looked up at Ryushi. Ryushi tightened his grip on the door handle.

"Maybe it is best if we just forget about each other. I mean who are we kidding anyway." Ryushi said before freeing himself from Keito and walking out of the dorm.

"Keito-Chan Keito-Chan!" Chibi yelled. Keito looked over. Xavier was now in his egg. The color of the egg had faded to grey and a white X was clearly visible on it. Keito knelt down and picked up the egg holding it close.

"Ryushi" He whispered as the tears began to fall. Chibi sat on Keito's shoulder and leaned against his neck hoping to comfort him.

[Ryushi's family home]

" I'm home…" he said kicking off his shoes and walking into the house. He felt empty and tired. He walked to his room keeping his hand on the wall. He felt as though his whole world had collapsed around him. He sunk onto the couch and put his hand over his face. Xavier was gone. He could feel it. He could feel the emptiness that Xavier had once filled. But he also felt a different kind of emptiness one that he had felt all those years that him and Keito had been apart.

"I'm all alone now" Ryushi whispered to himself.

"yes you are indeed alone" a voice said from the door way. Ryushi laid back and closed his eyes hoping that his brother would go away.

"Now now dear little brother you really shouldn't act so cold to family"

"You're no relative of mine." Ryushi growled.

"why do you look so downcast dear little brother. Did something happen with your little boyfriend" His brother taunted. Ryushi clenched his fists and stood up grabbing his brothers shirt.

"What the fuck do you know about him!" Ryushi yelled. His brother smirked. "i agreed to do what you guys want so leave Keito alone Ryuzaki!"

"come now brother calm yourself" Ryuzaki said with a smirk. Ryushi clenched his fist and punched Ryuzaki in the face knocking him to the ground.

"I broke up with him so just leave him out of this" Ryushi said storming out of the house. Ryuzaki sat up and touched his bruised cheek.

"Such a violent bastard" He smirked.
