Ken lied back on the torn couch in the living room. The flower shop wasn't the only thing the intruders left in shambles- the apartment was also quite a mess. There was a huge hole in the television, glass littered the floor where all the windows were broken, the kitchen table was broken in half, and dishes were strewn all over the floor. Ken didn't even want to think of the shape his bedroom was in. He was about to get up and find out when Free settled on the couch beside him. "Any word from KR?"
Free shook his head, his earrings making clanging noises as he did so. Ken always imagined Free as being one of those cryptic gypsy fortunetellers in old movies. "It's been hours, and still no word."
"Shit," Ken swore, "what the Hell is going on..."
Ran stalked into the room at that moment and went to sit on the couch, but hesitated when he saw Ken and Free taking up most of it. The brunet sat up and moved so he could make room for his partner. The swordsman sat down while eyeing the damage wearily. After hours of pacing, he was finally starting to wind down. The jetlag was starting to affect everyone, it seemed. Michel was already asleep in what remained of Free's bed- the tiny blonde's room was almost completely destroyed and the older man insisted Michel use his room while he slept elsewhere. Across the room, Yuki was fighting falling asleep while sitting in the recliner. Chloe had locked himself in his room and was more than likely asleep by now. Everyone was far too tired to deal with anything else for the night.
"Alright, we'll sleep in shifts incase whoever did this comes back." Ran said after what felt like hours of silence. "Who wants to take the-"
Yuki snored softly, his glasses slipping down his nose.
"...Who wants to take the first watch?" Ran finished, looking at Ken, then Free.
"I'll stay up. What's another few hours, right?" Ken said, cracking his neck.
Free nodded. "Then I will go rest for now." He headed up the stairs and into his bedroom.
Ken looked at Ran and offered him a smile. Ran returned it and sleepily rested his forehead on Ken's arm. Ken combed his fingers through the burgundy hair at the base of Ran's neck and sighed, exhausted. "We'll get them, Ran." He told him quietly. The only response he got was the redhead lacing his fingers through his own. Ken squeezed his hand, as if to reiterate his point. Within minutes, Ran was lulled to sleep by the sound of Ken's quiet breathing. Ken was about to nod off himself when Yuki cleared his throat. "Uh, aren't you supposed to be asleep?" Ken asked, quickly disentangling himself from Ran. The swordsman simply slumped over, still asleep 'For a professional assassin he sure sleeps heavy.' Ken thought.
"Aren't you supposed to be awake?" Yuki asked, sitting up.
Ken tried not to blush. It wasn't that he and Ran were keeping their relationship secret or anything, it's just that they were private about their personal feelings in front of their new team. Neither of the men was sure how their new teammates would react to them.
"Look," Yuki said, knowing Ken was probably embarrassed, "it's nothing to be ashamed of. I sort of knew already anyway."
"You did?" Ken asked. The tried to think back to a time when he might've recalled being affectionate with Ran while the other members of Kriptonbrand were around, but couldn't come up with any.
Yuki nodded. "I... well... one night. Found you two. Erm." He blushed. "Well, anyway, you don't have to hide it. I don't really care and I doubt the others would mind."
"Oh... Oh." Ken said. "Well, ah, sorry you hadda see that, kid."
"Not as sorry as I am." Yuki muttered. He could still see it when he closed his eyes. That would certainly teach him to wander around the house in the middle of the night for spare blankets. "You can go to sleep if you want to. I don't think I'm going to be able to fall asleep again for a while."
Ken stood up and stretched out for a minute before smiling at Yuki. "Thanks, I'm exhausted." He then bent over and shook his sleeping lover. "Ran. Oi, Ran, get up."
Ran shook his head and mumbled something unintelligible before swatting at Ken's offensive hand.
The brunet sighed in exasperation. "C'mon, let's get you to bed."
"It's Saturday." Ran muttered, half asleep as he stood up and all but threw himself on Ken.
Waking Ran up seemed like one complicated task and Yuki certainly didn't envy Ken one bit. It was a bit humorous to see the man he looked up to half-asleep and incoherent, however. The young boy couldn't help but smile as he watched Ken half-drag half-carry Ran up to his bedroom. Ken wasn't such a bad guy after all, he thought.
Free shook his head, his earrings making clanging noises as he did so. Ken always imagined Free as being one of those cryptic gypsy fortunetellers in old movies. "It's been hours, and still no word."
