Chapter Eight:
Cleaning? How Fun (!)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*
Recap:
Downstairs in the kitchen, Alix poured Kyo a glass of milk, and some orange juice for herself. She drank hers slowly, while Kyo finished his quite quickly. She poured him another one, smiling at him.
“You sure you won't drink it out of a saucer?” she asked as she handed it to him.
He shook his head. “No.”
“Okay then. Just making sure.” She smiled at him, before finishing her drink and rinsing it. She rinsed Kyo's empty glass as well, and led him back upstairs. She closed the door and slid into bed, pulling the cover up over her body. Kyo glanced around in hope of a spare bed, but didn't find any. He frowned, and got into the bed beside Alix. He rolled on his side away from her. Alix whimpered, clapping the lights off and moving so her back was touching Kyo's. She fell into a deep sleep, and didn't notice Kyo turn around, and pull her back into is chest before he fell asleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*
 
“Kyo-Kyo!”
“What?”
“Silly Kitty!”
“What damn it?”
Alix frowned at her boyfriend's back from her position in his bedroom doorway. Kyo was playing with her laptop in his room. He hadn't even bothered to turn around. At least he was answering to her pet names.
“Do I have to hug you?”
“No. What do you want?”
“I want attention. You've been on that thing since yesterday.”
“I'll show you attention later.”
“Fine. I'm going to flirt with Haru.” She said, turning to leave.
Kyo snapped the laptop shut and was on his feet a second later. When he turned around to protest, he was presented with a lovely view of Alix's long slender legs. She was wearing a pair of denim shorts. She smirked at him.
“See what you missed? I've been prancing around in these all morning.”
“What's with the shorts?” he asked, walking over to her, where she was currently leaning against the door frame.
“Tohru wants to clean the house. I offered to help and you too.”
“Last time that happened I was pushed into the door and broke it.”
“Hopefully that won't happen this time. Come on.” She grabbed his hand and led him downstairs.
 
In the living room, the others had already started by moving most of the furniture out side. Alix and Kyo pitched in. The two girls did most of the dusting and cleaning while the four boys moved the furniture around. Shigure had run off somewhere, no doubt to torment his manager, Mii.
They took a break at lunch. Tohru and Alix made a quick lunch and some iced tea. Uo and Hana rocked up, just as they finished eating. Uo gave Kyo shit as always, resulting in Kyo and Yuki getting into an argument. Alix broke it up by standing in front of Kyo. Of course Kyo told to her fuck off. She threatened him with hugging Momiji. And he dropped the matter real fast.
Over the three months that Kyo and Alix were together, Alix had developed a habit of hugging the rabbit. She would hold Momiji and pet his rabbit form for hours on end. It bugged the hell out of Kyo.
 
At four o'clock they finished. Shigure entered the living room to see Alix lying on the floor with her tank top folded double over her breasts, showing off her flat stomach and shiny belly ring. Momiji was lying next to her, playing with her hair. Yuki was sitting next to Tohru at the table. Kyo had Alix's laptop in front of him, and Haru, Uo and Hana had disappeared.
“So, I see my house is nice and clean. Except for the litter of teens spread out in my living room. Are we going to order dinner?”
“Yeah, I'm too tired to cook. I know Tohru is too,” Alix yawned from the floor.
“No, I can cook.” Tohru said.
“Tohru, you're buggered. Just admit it. I'm paying for dinner. Shigure, go order what ever you want.” Shigure smiled happily and made his way to the phone.
Alix yawned loudly. “Kyo-Kyo.”
“What do you want now?”
“I was gonna say I love you, but if it's such a bother, I won't. Momiji.”
“Yeah, Alix?”
“I love you, you cute little bunny. Seeing as how my Silly Kitty doesn't want my love, you can have it.”
“I don't think so, bitch.” Kyo said from the laptop. “You can sleep in Tohru's room next time.”
“Maybe I'll sneak into Yuki's. I'm sure he'd love the company.” She stopped suddenly. “Can any one else hear that?”
The room went silent, and sure enough, a sound was coming from upstairs. It sounded like a song.
“Aw shit.”
“What is it?”
“My phone. It can stay up there. If they want me that bad, they'll ring back. I wonder what Shigure is ordering for dinner, I hope it's something nice.”
Shigure voice carried in from the foyer, along with a girl's voice. Alix recognized it immediately. And she wasn't in the mood to see her again. She got to her feet, and went to the door leading outside.
“Alix, where are you going?” Yuki asked.
“She's here. I don't want to see her again.”
Kyo's head snapped up. “Kagura is here?”
“Yes. I'll see you guys later.”
“Oh, no you don't. I'm going with you.” Kyo snapped her laptop shut and took it with him as he followed Alix into the hall way and upstairs to his room.
Inside Kyo's room, Alix turned to face him as he put the laptop on his bed.
“I don't want to see her. I'll kill her if she says anything about my family.”
“Alix calm down. You don't have to see her. We'll just stay up here.”
“Why is she here? Does she know that I'm here?”
“Alix. Drop it. Come on, stop please.” He put his hands on her shoulders, when her phone rang again. He picked it up and answered it. It was Hatori, wanting to let Alix know that Kagura was on her way over. He told his cousin that she was already here. Hatori sighed, and hung up. He dropped the phone on to his bed. “Alix.”
“What Kyo?”
He chewed his lip. “Will you please tell me what happened?”
“The accident? No. I'm not ready.” She shook her head.
“Please. I want to know. I know that it still hurts you, but I want to know. Will you tell me?”
“No. I'm not ready. I don't want to. Please don't ask me to.” She moved away from him to stand by the window. He came up behind her, wrapping his arm around her waist and resting his chin gently on her shoulder.
“I'm sorry. I love you.”
“I love you too, I'm just not ready. It is bad enough I have to talk to Hari about it. I hope she leaves soon. If she doesn't, you'll have to take the money down to Shigure.”
“I ain't going anywhere near her. She'll smother me.”
“Well what are we going to do up here?”
“You could give me a massage. I think I pulled something.”
She smiled at him, shaking her head. “Anything to get me touching you.”
Kyo pulled his shirt off and went over to his bed, lying down on his stomach after placing her phone and lap top on the floor carefully. Alix sighed and went over to the bed; she sat down on his cargo clad butt, folding her legs on either side of his hips. She massaged his back and shoulders. He sighed in content, resting his head on his arms. Alix continued her administrations, and soon enough, he was emitting something like a purr. A pair of orange cat ears appeared on his head with a tiny pop.
“You know, you make a cute cat.” She said, smiling at the furry appendages.
“What are you going on about?”
“Your little cat ears, they're cute.”
“Yeah, they pop up. Don't touch `em.”
“Please? I wanna touch `em. I wanna tweak `em. Just this once, please?”
He groaned. “Once and once only.”
Alix squealed softly, and gently touched one of his little ears. It was soft and warm. She touched the other one with her other hand, tweaking the pair of them. They suddenly disappeared with another pop. She frowned.
“They went away. Oh well.” She went back to her task of kneading the soft skin on his back. Her butt was getting numb, so she squirmed a bit, trying to get in a comfy spot. He groaned louder this time.
“Don't do that,” he said his voice slightly husky. Alix stopped moving. She realized what she did.
“Sorry. I didn't mean it.”
His voiced was strained. “It's okay. Just don't do it again.”
She got off him and the bed. “I'm finished any way.” She walked back over to the window, and sat on the sill. Kyo flipped on to his back, resting the back of his head on his hands. Alix smiled at him from her spot. The voices from downstairs carried up into the room. It didn't sound like any one had brought her up. Yet. She sighed heavily.
“What do you want to do now?” he asked.
“Dunno. There isn't really that much to do up here. Unless we fuck around.”
“That's up to you.”
She shook her head softly, her hair falling over her shoulder. “We could play on my lap top. You seem so fascinated by it.”
“Well come on.” Kyo sat up, and lent back against the wall at the head of the bed. He moved the laptop in front of him as he waited for her to come over. Alix sat in front of him, and rested against him.
 
It was an hour before any one came upstairs. It was Yuki, telling them that dinner had arrived and that Kagura had left. They came down to the table and began eating. It turned out Shigure ended up paying, instead of alerting Kagura to Alix's presence in the house. Alix paid him back, not taking no for an answer, when he refused the money. After dinner and the containers had been put in the bin, Alix pulled Shigure aside in his room.
“What's wrong?” he asked her as she shut the door.
“I wanted to ask you something.”
“Well go ahead then.”
“Would it be okay with you, if I wanted to live here, temporarily?”
“Why on earth would you want to live here? This place is one of the worst.”
“I'm alone, most of the time at my house. And there is only so much you can do with a ton of money. I want to stay here, if it's okay with you. I can pay rent and board, that's no problem. I can pay more, if needed. Please let me stay. Please Shigure?” Alix had pulled her best puppy-dog eyes, making sure to tear up a bit as well.
Shigure's face softened at the sight of hers. “But where will you stay? In Tohru's room?”
“Actually, I was thinking Kyo's. But Tohru's is good too. So can I please stay?”
“Alright, you may stay.”
“Thank you so much!”
Shigure was knocked over as Alix leapt on him, hugging him tightly.
POOF
Alix pet the black dog as the cloud of smoke vanished. She hugged him around the neck and kissed his nose. The bedroom door opened and Yuki's head came into view.
“Is everything okay?” He asked, raising his eyebrow at the sight that greeted him.
“Yes! Everything is fine, Prince Boy.” She turned to Shigure and kissed his nose again. “Thank you.”
Yuki shook his head as Alix stood up and left the room to find Kyo.
 
Alix found Kyo in the garden, practicing his martial arts. She sat down on the verandah and watched him. She loved the way his body moved, practicing the movements he had been taught. Yuki sat down beside her.
“Hey,” she said to him, smiling in is direction.
“Hey, yourself. How are you and Kyo doing?”
“Fine. He's a lot better than what he was.”
“I know. He doesn't fight with me as much. He still won't talk to me, but it's a start. He's getting better with you as well. He doesn't yell as much. And you haven't argued in three months. That's really good.”
“Yeah, it is. He still isn't big with kissing me in front of others. But he'll let me kiss him. I'm happy that I'm with him.”
“We all are. You are good for him. What was going on with Shigure?”
“Ah, that…you'll have to wait and see. I want to tell Kyo first, see what he thinks, and then I'll see if I go with it. If he doesn't like it, then it won't happen.”
“Alright then. Tell Kyo to stop and warm down. It's getting too dark.”
“Okay.” She stood up and made her way to Kyo. She waited for him to face her. He stopped when he did, panting slightly from the work out. His bangs were hanging in his eyes.
“What?” he asked her as she moved to stand in front of him. She smiled up at him.
“It's getting dark. Warm down, and come inside. I'll have to go home soon.”
“Alright. Go get your stuff ready. I'll be up in a few.”
She kissed him softly and walked back to the verandah. She watched him begin his stances to warm down, before walking back upstairs to pack her things up. She finished quickly, going into the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth with Kyo's toothbrush. She finished and turned around to find him standing in the door way.
“Do you usually use my toothbrush?” he asked, crossing his arms over his chest, eyebrow raised.
“Yes. Is that a problem?” she asked, walking over to him, with her hands clasped behind her back.
“Not really, it's only fair that I can use yours.”
“Well its not here, is it? Come on help me take my stuff downstairs. I have to ask you something.”
“What?”
“Well. I have asked Shigure if it would be okay if I lived here, temporarily. He was okay with it, but I want to know what you think first. Will it be okay with you?”
“You want to live here?”
“Yeah. I'm always alone at my house. And when ever we sleep over we always share a bed. If you don't want me to, just say so.”
“You want to stay here, and sleep in my room? That means I'm going to see you 24/7, right?”
“Yeah. It was stupid. I'm sorry for suggesting it. Come on, I have to go home now.” Alix pushed passed him, not waiting for his answer and went into his room. She had been sure that he would be okay with it. She had obviously been reading him wrong. She grabbed her overnight bag and laptop and went downstairs. Suki was waiting for her, talking with Shigure. Alix smiled at her.
“Hello, are you ready to leave?” Suki asked her.
“Yep. Got all my stuff.”
“Said good bye to your boyfriend?”
Alix frowned slightly. “No. Not yet.”
“Well hurry up then. I'm not going to wait for ever.” Suki took her bags and shooed her back up the stairs. Alix looked in his room, but couldn't find him. She sighed and went back downstairs. He wasn't there either.
“I can't seem to find him. He must be in the bathroom. I'll see him tomorrow any way. I didn't get much sleep last night, and I'm tired. Let's go.”
“Alright then, come on kiddo.”
Alix followed Suki out to the car and got in the front seat. She put her seat belt on and closed the door. Suki hopped in a few minutes afterward and handed Alix a piece of paper. Alix glanced at it before leaving it on her lap. Suki started the car and drove down the driveway.
“Ya gonna read it?”
“No, not really.” She answered, looking out the window.
“You and Kyo didn't have another argument did you?”
“No, of course not. I asked Shigure if I could live with them, and he said yes. I asked Kyo what he though of it, and he didn't seem too happy about it. I thought he would be okay with it. I was obviously wrong. It's okay.”
“Well that note is from him, so are ya going to read it, or can I?”
“You can. But not when you're driving.”
“That's fine. I'll read it when we get home.” She pulled into the drive way leading to the huge mansion. She stopped the car and read the note. She smiled.
“He's okay with you living with them. He said that he'd be happy if you did.” She handed the note to her younger charge. The black haired girl read the note slowly, before smiling softly and folding the note back up gently.
Upstairs in her room, Alix put her stuff away and her laptop back on her desk. She put the note in her top drawer in a box. She went into the bathroom, having a shower and changing into a short silk night dress. She went back downstairs to get a glass of orange juice, before heading back up to her nice warm bed, slipping between the blankets.
 
The next morning, Alix was woken gently by a dip in the bed as some one climbed in with her. She ignored them, and tried to go back to sleep. A soft tickling in her ear stopped that from happening. She groaned.
“Go away and let me sleep damn it.”
“Nah, I can't do that. That would make me a nice boyfriend.”
“Kyo, go away or I'll kill you. I don't like being woken up.”
“Tough. We were going to the movies, or maybe you forgot?”
“I forgot. I hate waking up.” She rolled over to him. He was laying on his side, with his head cradled in his hand, a feather in the other. He smiled at her.
“Are you going or get up, or am I just going to sleep with you?”
“Sleep sounds good. What's the time?” she asked, stretching out in the bed. She mewled as her shoulder cracked audibly. He raised an eyebrow at the sound.
“Ten. I've been here since nine.”
“Nine? What on earth for?”
“Well we were going to go at nine thirty. I guess that's not happening.”
“No. I feel like shit at the moment. My back is killing me.” She arched forward, her spine making it-self noticed by aching and letting off another crack. Kyo rolled her over on to her stomach, and pulled her beside him. He dropped the feather behind him, and used his hand to knead her shoulder. She moaned loudly as her aching muscles began to feel better. He moved to her other shoulder, after he was happy that the first one had loosened up enough. He had reduced her to a puddle of moans and mewls by the time he finished her whole back. He sat up so he could move both his thumbs up the length of her back, on either side of her spine. Her back gave its last few cracks and she un-tensed, rolling back into his chest.
“Thank you. My back was killing me. Maybe I should get up so we can catch the later screening yeah?”
“I don't care at the moment. Staying here is kinda nice.”
“Yeah, it is. Maybe we could just stay home today. We can go to the movies next week.”
“If you want to. But what are we going to do here?”
“I have internet, I have food and I have a wide screen TV with surround sound. I have no idea what we could do here. Think of something.”
“I have an idea, but I don't know what you will think.”
“Well tell me, and I'll think about it.” She gasped as his mouth latched itself on to the back of her neck. His hands slid to her hips, pulling her back against him tightly. Her toes curled at the sensations running through her body from her stomach to her toes and back. He laved at her neck, nibbling on the soft skin there. Alix was thoroughly turned on by that point, and was panting slightly. This was as far as she had ever gotten. She didn't know if she was ready for it to continue. His tongue traced the shell of her ear, stopping at her lobe to nibble. She giggled and nudged him gently. He stopped, moving his hand to slide up her side, coming to a halt at her breasts. She waited for him to go further. But he didn't.
“Are you okay with this?” he asked softly.
“Yeah. It's fine. It feels nice…but I don't want to get carried away. I'm not ready.”
“Then I'll stop.” He moved his hand back to her hip, squeezing gently. Alix rolled underneath his arm to face him. She kissed his chin gently. She was curious to know what his body felt like. Placing an arm on his hip, she silently asked him if she could touch him. He nodded, pulling her mouth into a brain scrambling kiss. Sliding up, under his shirt, Alix's hand came in contact with smooth, warm skin over taught muscles that clenched underneath her touch. She made her way to his chest, where she could felt his heart beating- no pounding- in his chest. She smiled and pulled away.
“You feel nice.” She said softly.
“I know. Come one, we'll go downstairs, and watch a movie.” He kissed her again, before getting out of bed and standing up. She smiled at him, snuggling further into the blankets. “Out of bed woman, now, or I go home.”
“You love me. Alright, fine.” She got out of her warm bed and walked over to him. His eyes traveled down to the bottom of her nightdress, and back up to her face. “Pervert.”
“That's the damn dog, not me.” He growled. She smiled at him, walking past to go to her closet.
 
Downstairs, Kyo and Alix were sitting down in the living room, cuddled up on the sofa. Suki had made Alix some breakfast and shooed them into the living room. They had decided on Blazing Saddles, because Alix refused all the movies he wanted due to scenes with car accidents. He gave in, and just pulled her close, smiling down at her as she snuggled into his chest, resting her head under his chin.
 
 
FINSIHED!!!!!!! Yeah. Finally.
