A/N: Sorry for the sudden change. I guess I didn't quite think ahead. I finally found another use for Cheek. It'll come up later in the letters. Please read and review! Thanks!

I was a fool; to fall so engrossed with you.
"So, what do you want me to say?" I stood glaring at the Ox who stood in front of my locker, blocking me from my books. The cow shrugged, his hands in his pant pockets.
"Look, can we stop? Class is about to start soon," I began to say; anything that would get me away from the situation right now.
"Kitten, I know you don't have class this period and I can skip mines. Let's talk somewhere private. Where do you suggest?"
"Nowhere. You go to class and I'll go my own way," I finalized.
"And where are you going?" the cow asked me.
"Away from you and our situation," I just had to leave or I was going to break down.
"Is it really that troubling? Do you really want to stop now?" Haru wondered, a slight frown marred his features.
"I do," I answered honestly, staring into his eyes.
"Then . . . can I have a goodbye at least?" Haru said. I narrowed my eyes at my younger cousin,
"You really do know how to make a grand exit, huh? We do still see each other at New Years."
"That's if you come to those events," the Ox caught me. I looked away,
"I will . . ." A promise that I knew to be empty.
Suddenly, hands were on either side of my face, lightly touching my cheeks. The cow brought his face forward and placed a lingering kiss upon my chin, knowing the boundaries he could not cross.
"Goodbye, Kyou."

A/N: Basically, this snippet is about their close friendship with each other and how Kyou is uncomfortable with it so he has to leave before it develops into something more.
