iChapter-16!
---------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------
Kyo woke feeling refreshed. Well, mostly refreshed, mentally, yes..Physically...He really needed a shower.He recalled the events of the day before. It went a little differently then he'd planned but it proved to be worth it. He yawned and realized he was the only one in the room.
'He must've gone downstairs already.' He thought to himself as he rummaged around for his alarm clock. It was still somewhere on the floor from when he smacked it off his bedside table the week before. Once he found it, he held it in front of his face and squinted his eyes, which were still hazy with sleep.
'10 o'clock? I slept this late??' (A/N: 10? Late? HAH!) He groaned and tossed the very abused clock back onto the floor. He dreaded having to get up but he couldn't just lay there like a bum all day. He lazy swung his legs over the side of the bed, jumped up and headed towards the bathroom. Shower first.
Haru and Yuki sat at the table silently. Haru thumbed through a newspaper Shigure had left behind while Yuki sipped on a steamy cup of tea. Tohru was in the kitched doing God knows what, but, the rat was getting kind of uncomfortable with the silence..Believe it or not.
"Uhm..So..How's the main house been?" Haru glanced at Yuki with a detached look.
"Uh. Fine?"
"I see..That's..Good I guess." He drawled as he drummed his fingers on the table. Haru attempted to continue studying the paper in front of him but the constant tapping noises proved to be rather distracting.
Sighing, he folded the paper and layed it aside.
"Sorry about yesterday" He deadpanned. Yuki looked up at him curiously.
"Oh. It's okay, I just didn't want to have my room wrecked..That's all." He replied. He hadn't really expected an apology from the cow. He figured that since Haru was probably Black, he wouldn't have remembered the incident anyway. (A/N: Because when Kyo and Haru usually fight, Haru is black. And remember Yuki thinks they were fighting..har har)
Haru blinked at the rats explanation. "It's not like we were-" He stopped himself.
"Not like you were what?" The rat asked hesitantly.
"Nevermind, it's nothing."
"Okay.."
Tohru entered the room, drying her hands on a dish towel.
"Good morning!" she told them both
"Hey." Was the impassive teens only response, but it seemed enough to please the girl since her smile brightened.
"So you're done? Are you ready?" Yuki asked, standing up.
"Yep! Let's go!" She answered, saluting.
"Where are you going?" Haru asked, unenthusiastically.
"Oh! We're going to work in the garde-I mean..The secret base!" Tohru informed him excitedly, looking over her shoulder to make sure no one heard her almost slip up, then winked at Yuki. He smiled and sweatdropped.
Haru arched a brow at the girl. 'It's not like it's actually a 'secret' everyone knows about it..'
"Ah..Okay, see ya." He told them in his usual flat tone as they left the the room.
----------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
Kyo dragged himself down the stairs and into the kitchen, his hair still dripped wet from his shower. (A/N: Sometimes Im to lazy to dry my hair real good ;x) Haru was thoughtfully flipping through the paper again, when he heard the cat enter the room.
"Morning, kitten." He said without looking up. "Sleep good?"
Kyo grunted in response as he shuffled past the table to the refrigerator, hoping a nice glass of milk would wake him up. He lazily leaned in the counter, slowly sipping from the cup.
Shigure hopped into the room and held the phone out to the white haired teen, who, in turn, just stared at it like he had no idea what it was.
"It's Hatori. He sounds kind of grumpy and insists on talking to you 'At this very moment'" Shigure told him, trying to imitate the dragon. Haru sighed and accepted the phone.
"Yeah?" He waited for a response. "I told you I'de be gone so don't get pissy with me." He retorted coldly.
"Okay, well I'll talk back so don't bother coming to get me." Pause.
"Probably later this evening."
"Okay, bye." He hung up and handed the phone back to the dog, who happily accepted it.
"That was fast, from how Tori was demanding to talk to you I'm sure he was ready to chew your ears off..But..Ohh! Haa-kun is so skilled with his mouth!" The dog peeped.
Kyo, who was sitting silently across the room choked and spit the milk he'd been trying to drink all over the place. He slapped a hand over his mouth as he coughed to get the liquid out of his lungs. Once he was recovered he looked up to see the two staring at him.
Haru arched a brow and smirked. "Oh?" Kyo shot him a glare.
Shigure tiptoed ober and elbowed the fuming cat playfully.
"What's this? Guilty concious, ne Kyo?" He chuckled.
"Wha? NO!" Kyo blushed, pushing the dog away from him. He dropped his now empty glass into the sink and stormed out of the room. The cow gave an amused look before going after the neko.
Shigure sighed happily and bent down to clean up the mess, listening as the cat stormed about the house.
"Kyooooooo." Haru called from the living room.
"Go to hell!" Came the fiery teens voice from the top of the stairs. There was a few more stomping noises and a door slamming then a door opening and slamming again before there was silence.
-------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------
2 hours later....................
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------
"So, whaddya wanna do?" Haru asked as they walked. Kyo shrugged.
"Aw come on kitten, you're not still mad are you?" He gave him best pouty face. The cat rolled his eyes.
After they thoroughly 'made up' that morning, Haru had insisted they go do something together since he'd be going bck to the main house that evening. Even though it was summer vacation he couldn't just avoid going back to the main house. It was where he lived after all.
"I don't care, you choose." He huffed, Haru brightened and smirked at the statement, causing the cat to shrink back.
"Or..Maybe I'll choose..?" He retorted in a nervois tone, eyeing the cow suspiciously.
After about a half hour of silently going through lists of possible thingd to do, Kyo finally decided that they would go see a movie, but, Haru only agreed to go if he could choose the movie. Which of course meant he'd choose the movie that sounded the scariest.
So there they sat, waiting for the movie to start. Haru had reluctantly chosen The Ring 2. He rested an arm on the back of the nekos seat as he watched the previews. Kyo just say there, thinking to himself.
'The Ring 2? Wait..There's a Ring 1? What the hell could possibly be so scary about a ring anyway? Is it an evil ring,.? This movie isn't supposed to be like Lord Of the Rings is it? Or could it be that it's not even really about a ring..But if it isn't then why call it 'The Ring'..? This is so stupid!'
Kyo was now glaring at the movie screen. Haru leaned over a bit.
"What did the screen do to earn one of your genuine death glares?" He whispered. Kyo shot him that 'Are-You-Stupid' look and sat back, crossing his arms over his chest.
As the movie progressed, Kyo realized that it, in fact, had nothing to do with an actual 'Ring', But it did have to do with some freaky dead girls coming out of a well and killing you for watching a tape.
'What does a girl and a well have to do with a ring? Why the hell would you kill someone over a lousy video tape anyway? And why-' Kyo was so immersed in thought that a sudden noise from the movie made him jump. Haru chuckled as the cat latched onto him.
"Jeez Kitten, it's not even at a scary part and you're already jumping out of your seat. I could hold your hand if you want." He teased.
"Shutup, I was just caught a little off guard, okay?" He snapped, settling back into his own seat.
----------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
Kyo rambled on about the movie as they walked out of the movie theatre.
"What's the point of that? How is it supposed to be scary if it isn't even realistic? Like a little dead girls actually gonna crawl out of my T.v. Hell even if she did, I'de just kick her ass, girl or not." He said loudly
"I dunno, you seemed pretty on edge in there, I had to pry your fingers off my arms the whole time, look you even left marks." Haru stated sulkily, raising a brow at the cocky teen walked beside him. Kyo frowned a bit, then gave a smirk.
"Okay, so I suck with scary movies, bite me." He sighed.
"I'll take a rain check on that." The cow grinned, Kyo just rolled his eyes in reply.
As they walked, an old woman seemingly popped out of no where, and natrually, Kyo walked straight into her. There was a puff of orange smoke. Haru quickly jumped in front of the baffled woman. She looked up at him apprehensively, taking note of the earrings and necklaces.
"Sorry about that, I guess I would watch where I'm going next time." He said cheekily, putting a hand behind his head. The woman gulped and quickly turned to walked away.
Haru frowned. "Jeez, she could at least acknowledge that I apologized." He said bitterly as he picked up the small orange cat and his clothes.
"Well, maybe she would have stayed longer if you didn't look like you were gonna bite her face off." He retorted sarcastically. The cow shrugged and began. They had to find somewhere safe to go before Kyo transformed back.
The neko noticed Haru got a lot of looks as they walked down the sidewalk.
'look at him, he's hot!'
'I wonder if he's single?'
'Aw! he's got a kitten!'
The cat bristled. The nerve of those people! How could they talk about the his cow right in front of him? Even if he was a little orange cat..He was a person too..If that makes any sense.
Haru, who didn't seem the notice any of it, began scratching the neko behind the ears causing him to pur. The cow grinned as the feline leaned into the caress. Maybe he was a cat person.
--------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
Kyo stepped out of the bathroom they'de finally stumbled upon. Haru had set the orange neko down in one of the stalls with his clothes and informed him that he'd wait outside. (A/N:Aw what a gentleman?)
He looked around for the white haired teen, it's not like you could really miss him. He located the cow, lazily leaning against a wall. He also noticed two girls about his age standing in front of him, he could see them talking but he was to far away to hear what they were saying to the younger teen.
"Damnit, he;s just as bad as Yuki! Is there some kind of 'Hatsuharu fanclub' too? Jeez!" Kyo seethed as he stalked over toward the cow.
"So whaddya say? Wanna go somewhere with us? It'll be fun!" One of the girls cheered.
Haru didn't say anything, ignoring them didn't work, since he'de tried that already and the malcontented glare he'd given them had no effect. Oh how he hated persistant stalker fangirls.
"So?" The other girl tried, taking a step closer to the discontented cow. Haru tensed and looked around for an excuse to escape.
Kyo had made his way over and was now glaring at the girls, who were in turn giving him that 'who-are-you-and-why-are-you-glaring-at-us-like-that' glare. Haru smirked, perfect timing.
"Sorry ladies, but I'm with him, isn't the right kitten?" Haru said slinging an arm around the neko and nuzzling his neck. Kyo looked surprisingly at the the cow. He hadn't expected him to just blurt something like that out, he must have been pretty desperate.
The girls went from glaring to seething.
"You..Mean..?"
"Yep. That's what I mean..I mean it." Haru interrupted glaring at the two.
Kyo looked from the cow to the girls. When did they start having a staring contest anyway? After a moment the girls finally turned and left, mumbling something about 'how could he choose a guy over them?' (A/N: Hehe is that a rhetorical question? bahaag) Haru sighed in relief.
"Uh. What was all that 'You mean' 'I mean' crap? Kyo asked. He'd been wondering exactly what they meant.
"I have no idea, kitten" Haru smiled cheekily at the confused feline. "But it worked didn't it?"
Someone shuffled to stop in front of him, they both looked up, expecting to have to right with the two girls once again, only to see something even worse..
