12. Anxiety
Kyo hated surprises, and Kyo hated visits. And Kyo hated Akito even more. So a surprise visit from Akito would have drove Kyo as far away from home as possible. When Shigure announced that Akito was on his way to visit them, Kyo was ready to leave; but then he saw the anxious look on Yuki’s face and realized that Yuki didn’t just hate Akito, he feared him. Instead, Kyo went to the kitchen to make some chamomile tea. It was cold outside, anyway.
30. Night
That night, Yuki came home looking quite sad - no, depressed. He had no idea what had happened, but he hated seeing those lavender eyes teared up. So he went upstairs, turned his stereo on and started playing “Don’t cry”, Yuki’s favorite song. Then he lied down, feeling somewhat useless, because there was only so much he could do to comfort Yuki.
37. Soul
It was an autumn, and the only reason he remembered that was because of the maple leaves scattered on the ground; Yuki looked right into his eyes, for just one second or so, breaking his barriers and reaching deep into his soul. Kyo’s heart raced and he knew he was supposed to be scared. But he wasn’t.
39. Beautiful
He woke up with a real bad mood that morning. But then, heading to the kitchen, he stopped at the door; Yuki was sitting at the table and, without noticing the strange presence, peeling a peach, with dreamy eyes and a pure, childish smile on the face. There was such an unique beauty on that moment, that all of his anger and bitterness melt away, being replaced by tears, smiles and indescribable warmth.
Alternative 08. Sex
Kyo wasn’t gay; it wasn’t about loving guys or girls. It was about loving Yuki. And the rat just happened to be a boy.
Alternative 09. Line between love and hate
One of the few times Kyo felt really scared was the day Yuki had an almost deathly crisis. Seeing him lying down on that hospital bed, so fragile and pale, he realized how empty his life would be without Yuki - how meaningless it would be. And he understood, quite against his will, that he didn’t hate Yuki. He loved him.
