Slide Off the Moon.

Who are you and why are you sitting in a tree? “ Daisuke asked the being
calling himself Ken.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>Ken
smiled and leaped off the high branch. Daisuke winched for a moment, the fear
of breaking bones from such a height, and blinked when Ken landed with ease.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
It’s such a lovely day and I thought I’d explore a bit, “ He replied.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
It’s pouring out! “ Daisuke said.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
I know! “ Ken smiled, deliriously happy despite the rainy weather.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
O~kay… Well, nice meeting you, Ken, but I really have to find my cat before she
gets sick, “ Daisuke said, rather rushed and hurried off into the wet
underbrush.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Sway! “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Meryow? “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Here you are, girl, “ Daisuke smiled and scooped up his cat. Her fur was only
slightly wet and tucked her into his sweater. The red head rubbed behind her
ears and smiled, “ Now why did you run off like that? Can’t have you getting
sick on me, love. “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>Sway
hissed and Daisuke turned to see Ken standing behind him. The indigo haired
‘boy’ approached them and gently rubbed the bridge of Sway’s nose, despite her
hissing. Her eyes narrowed as she studies him. Ken smiled and said to her, “ I
mean him no harm, feline. “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>The
cat stared at Ken for another moment before climbing up onto Daisuke’s
shoulders again. Daisuke petted his cat, becoming more cautious of the gorgeous
creature before him. Sway was a good judge of character, even though she was
only a cat. He had found that out the hard way from Kari and TK.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
She really does care for you, Daisuke, “ Ken smiled.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Hai. About the only person who does, “ he admitted.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
How very sad, “ Ken murmured, cupping the red head’s cheek and thumbing the
warm, soft skin. He looked into Daisuke’s eyes, “ Because you are very worthy
of being loved. “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>A
blush rose over the boy’s cheeks & he took a step back. “ So, uh, why do
you like this gloomy weather? “ Daisuke asked, wanting to change the way this
mood was going. Sure, Ken was a very pretty boy, but the red head had outgrown
his childhood naïve as to think that all things beautiful are good.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Because I can only explore your world freely when it rains. I don’t have to
wait for a puddle to reflect the image of a full moon to open a portal, “ Ken
replied.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
This sounds way too much like one of my mangas, “ Daisuke said. Still, this was
kind of interesting. Better then his actual life, “ So, you’re like some kind
of fey? “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Are you a believer? “ Ken asked.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
You aren’t going to abduct me to some fantasy world if I say I do? “ Daisuke
asked, concerned.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>Ken
laughed, that delightful sound again and the red head felt foolish for asking.
He brought his face close to Daisuke’s, their noses and lips almost touching
and whispered, “ Only if you want me to. “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>Daisuke
felt his face grow hotter and something warmed pooled his insides. He was aware
that Ken was drawing closer, tilting his head as if he was going to kiss him.
His eyes slowly closed and he could feel Ken’s warm breath across his cheeks,
Ken’s lips just about to touch his…

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>Splish!

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>The
sound of a hurried footstep made Daisuke open his eyes. Ken was gone and a
jogger in a raincoat dashed by. The red head glanced around for Ken and found
him gone. Daisuke flushed with disappointment, feeling mad and hurried out of
the woods.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
I’m going mad, Sway. I’ve finally snapped. Funny, I thought madness would be
more insane then this, “ Daisuke said. He sighed, “ Oh, well. At least he was a
gorgeous illusion. “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>Upon
arriving home he found his ‘family’ home from dinner already. He passed Jun in
the hallway. They didn’t speak, Jun was too distracted by something and Daisuke
entered his bedroom. He shut the door behind him and Sway climbed off his
shoulders and onto his bed.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Well, at least it wasn’t a boring evening, “ Daisuke murmured. He gave a start
when someone wrapped their arms around him. “ Dammit Jun! “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
I’m not Jun, my ruby, “ came a purr in his ear.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Ken? “

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Mmmm? “ Ken replied, pressing his face against the boy’s warm neck, dropping
kisses.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
H-oh! Did you get inside? “ Daisuke asked.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Your sister left a rather warm puddle on the floor. She sure is an untidy
creature, “ Ken chuckled as he turned the boy around.

text-autospace:none\'> 

text-autospace:none\'>“
Oh… “ Daisuke left off as Ken pulled him into a kiss.

Mist: Just to clear something up, because it’s raining, Ken can pass through
any body of water without waiting for a full moon.

Finally, some Kensuke action!
