Kinyuu 20


\"Oh Kyou.... You followed orders so well. Looks like you\'re learning something after all. Now, if only I could....\"


\"Na... nani?!\"


\'No... don\'t tell me....\'


\"Well, it\'s quite simple, Kyou-kun. I told you to take me and you took me. And now, it\'s only fair that next time, I\'ll be the one on top, don\'t you think?\"


\'Don\'t tell me..... that it.... was a lie..\'


When I heard those words come out of Yuki\'s mouth I was left..... shocked.....disappointed.......hurt. I don\'t know why but I thought that we had shared something last night. I thought that he really cared for me..... maybe even love me. I thought that I saw it in his eyes...But I guess it was another lie. I didn\'t want to look at him, to look at those beautiful eyes and not see the emotion that I saw before but instead see glee at besting me again. Why do I even care? Don\'t tell me I\'ve fallen for him? No I can\'t have. I said.... no, promised myself that I wouldn\'t let him steal my heart......but then again.... I’ve promised myself many other things that haven\'t come to pass.....


\"Kyou, I do care about you.\"

Now he says that he cares for me right before he leaves with Ayame. Yea...right...Why should I believe that? He\'s already humiliated me...what three?.....no, four times? More? I\'m not even sure. It\'s been so many times now that I have lost count. How can I believe anything he says now! Why would I even want to? He\'s the rat.... Sly and deceitful....the cat\'s enemy.....so why do I feel so hurt...why is he always on my mind?


The morning, as we all sat for breakfast, was strained. I wouldn\'t look at Yuki, Yuki wouldn\'t look at me, Ayame wouldn\'t look at Shigure, and Shigure wouldn\'t look at Ayame except for, what he thought was, discrete glances. Once again Tohru was oblivious of it all or maybe she can hide her feelings really well.... Who knows? She may even know what\'s going on between Yuki and me.... Ayame was sitting next to me, Yuki and Shigure being the farthest from me. Ayame tried to talk with me but I couldn\'t shake the depressed feeling I had, I guess it didn\'t help that it was raining slightly...


After breakfast we all went our separate ways. I tried my best to avoid Yuki like the plague (hmm...the plague was spread by rats...). But later on I was passing by Shigure\'s study.... writing room....whatever the hell it was called..... and I heard shouting coming from it. Being the curious cat that I am, I peaked inside.


\"Ha! You\'re just jealous Shigure!\" Growl \" I already admitted that I was jealous Ayame! The reason I\'m jealous is because I can\'t stand to see you with anyone else but me!\" \"So you want me to be unhappy and alone while you have Hatori to comfort you!?\" Ayame yelled with a tremor in his voice. Shigure sighed \"No Aya. I lo...\" \"No! I know what I saw! You can\'t deny that you and Hatori are together!\"


\'Hmmm.....Eh?! Hatori and Shigure! I can see Shigure and Ayame but Hatori and Shigure!\' my mind staggered. \'This must be why Ayame wants to make Shigure jealous.\'
Just then someone tapped me on the shoulder scaring the wits out of me and alerting the two in the room of my presence.


\"Baka neko. Don\'t you know it\'s not polite to eavesdrop.\"


It was Yuki. The one person I was trying to avoid.


\"Kisama. You\'re one to talk k\'so nezumi. Chik\'sho now they\'re coming out!\"


They both came out. Ayame with a painfully fake grin plastered on his face and a frustrated and disgruntled looking Shigure.


\"Kyo...Just the person I wanted to see.\" Ayame said as he grabbed my arm and then dragged my head down to meet his kiss.


\"Hello darling.\"
