Ketsueki and Aisoku 7

Aisoku stirs in his bed, his eyes fluttering open. He yawns sleepily
Ketsueki still lies asleep beside him, his arm wrapped loosely about the other boy's waist, his face burried in a pillow.
Aisoku smiles, stroking Ketsueki's hair. "Aishiterou..."
Ketsueki shifts slightly in his sleep, after a moment lifting his head, his eyes half open. "..nani...?"
Aisoku shakes his head, "Forget it....." He kisses his cheek.
Ketsueki gives a small nod as he blushes, sitting up and rubbing his eyes.
Aisoku lays back still as Ketsueki sits up. He looks up at the elder boy, smiling.
Ketsueki stretches out his arms, glancing at Aisoku. "You sure look happy."
Aisoku laughs, "I am happy."
Ketsueki cocks his head slightly. "How come?"
Aisoku puts one hand over Ketsueki's. "Because you're here."
Ketsueki blushes again, quickly shaking his head and using his free hand to smooth down his hair.
Aisoku grabs Ketsueki's hand, preventing him from further smoothing down of his locks. "You look fine."
Ketsueki blinks. "....alright...."
Aisoku smiles, closing his eyes for a moment. He releases Ketsueki's hand and yawns again.
Ketsueki watches him silently, his head still cocked slightly to the side.
Aisoku yawns meekly again, stretching awkwardly. He turns on his side, "...You never did......tell me your decision..."
Ketsueki hns. "You mean..about staying?"
Aisoku bites his lower lip and nods.
Ketsueki frowns slightly. "..I don't know."
Aisoku sinks back a little.
Ketsueki sighs. "I know I don't belong with humans.."
Aisoku flinches, "I don't belong with humans or youkai...but that doesn't matter..."
Ketsueki scowls. "...this is different."
Aisoku frowns, "Why is it different?"
Ketsueki hns. "You'd just get upset."
Aisoku frowns, "That doens't matter....tell me."
Ketsueki lies back on the bed. "You don't hate either. I hate humans."
Aisoku sighs, "That's not fair, Ket-chan....you don't know many humans....."
Ketsueki growls. "I haven't had good experineces with any."
Aisoku smiles faintly, "I'm human.....at least a little."
Ketsueki shakes his head. "...you're not the same...haven't I already explained this?"
Aisoku looks down, "Yeah, I guess...but my mother's human.....do you hate her? She really seems to like you.."
Ketsueki blinks, remaining silent. That never dawned on him...
Aisoku smiles, "She does you know...." youkorin6: Ketsueki shakes his head. "She doesn't know me."
Aisoku grins, brushing a lock from his eyes, "I never said she did."
Ketsueki hns. "Then she can't like me."
"But she does."
Ketsueki shakes his head. "No. She doesn't know me, so she can't."
Aisoku laughs, "I know I'm right."
Ketsueki scowls. "You're not. I am."
Aisoku laughs, "Iie!"
Ketsueki crosses his arms. "I am."
Aisoku smiles, "Iie, iie, iie, iie...."
Ketsueki hns. "I know I'm right."
Aisoku smiles, "Let's see," he sits up, "Let's ask her."
Ketsueki blinks. "...no."
Aisoku hops off his bed, "Why not? I want my mom to like my boyfriend."'
Ketsueki twitches slightly. "...don't refer to me like that."
Aisoku laughs, "Why not?"
Ketsueki hms. "...it..sounds weird..."
Aisoku puts his hands on his hips, "Well....what would you prefer? Ket-chan? Ket-kun? Koi?"
Ketsueki slowly stands. "...just not 'boyfriend'."
Aisoku laughs, "Aw, but it's cute."
Ketsueki shakes his head quickly. "No!"
Aisoku kneels, hugging Ketsueki's tail, "No?"
Ketsueki blinks. "No!! Now get offa my tail!!"
Aisoku ignores him, "I wish I had a tail," he strokes it, smiling up at Ketsueki, "It's so soft."
Ketsueki twitches. "I don't care how soft it is!! Leggo!!"
Aisoku sighs, releasing it, "You're no fun."
Ketsueki swishes the tail. "I'm not? Well, I'm sorry."
Aisoku stands, "That's right. But I don't mind."
Ketsueki shrugs. "I don't really care if I'm fun or not. "
Aisoku smiles, "Am I fun?"
Ketsueki hns. "No."
Aisoku's shoulders slump, "Ket-chan......you're so mean to me.."
Ketsueki frowns slightly. "....you're taking me seriously?"
Aisoku shrugs, "You're usually serious."
Ketsueki swallows. "...when I'm being mean to you, I don't mean it, alright?"
Aisoku frowns, "How do I know that?"
Ketsueki sighs. "..nevermind......."
Aisoku moves close to Ketsueki, hugging him. He doesn't say anything.
Ketsueki looks down at him. "Are you really all that upset?"
Aisoku blinks, looking up, "What?
Ketsueki shakes his head. "Nothing..."
