Day Six

"You're in love with my son aren't you?" Hozumi asked.

Inui paused for a moment; and thought about whether he should tell Kaidoh's mother or not. She was asking… Inui was almost afraid to answer truthfully but he did.

"Yes. I love your son very much. This is why I'm doing this, to show him that I care," he answered quietly.

Hozumi's eyes softened and she almost looked as if she was about to cry. She then threw her arms around Inui and hugged him tight.

"I knew it. Hazue told me that there was a connection between you two. Inui, please…take care of him and please let him be aware of your feelings because I know he loves you just as much as you love him. I'm entrusting you with him. Don't let me down," she said.

Inui nodded as Hozumi released him.

"I won't Kaidoh-san. I'll take care of him and make sure he's okay. I'm honored that you've allowed me and trust me to be with him and take care of him," he replied.

Hozumi smiled.

"A mother knows things and I'm not surprised. At any matter I better go," she answered.

Inui lead her out, bowed bidding her goodbye and thanked her several times before he was left alone with Kaidoh again in silence.

Inui decided to type of his computer; add data on Kaidoh's files and others before starting on what homework e thought he had and did whatever subject of books he had with him. He was soon finished with the next two days of assignments; and if Kaidoh was well enough he would see what Kaidoh brought and let him do homework over the weekend. Inui made more food; this time rice with vegetables. This would probably be very good for Kaidoh. He woke him up and it took a minute for him to get woke up before leaning back against the poles of the bed frame.

"How long have I been sleeping?" Kaidoh asked.

"Three hours," replied Inui.

"It seems like I slept longer," said Kaidoh.

"You're sick of course it seems that way," pointed out Inui.

"I…I smell food," Kaidoh murmured.

Inui chuckled and placed the bowl of white rice and vegetables onto Kaidoh's hands.

Kaidoh picked up the chopsticks; hands trembling, and ate.
"Take your medicine and go back to sleep Kaoru," said Inui spooning in some medicine in his kouhai's mouth.

He placed his hands on Kaidoh's chest and pushed him down onto the bed.

"I feel guilty, I'm taking your bed away from you," whispered Kaidoh looking away. He swore he just heard Inui use his first name.

Inui grinned and had a plan.

"If you're so guilty Kaidoh, let me sleep with you," he murmured getting way too close to the other boy.

Kaidoh blushed madly and couldn't help but squirm. Then again he did feel pretty guilty and as long as they didn't touch eachother…. He should be okay shouldn't he? And then that damn dream came back to him; but he secretly wanted this to happen and before he could stop himself he answered quietly, "Then sleep with me senpai."

Inui looked shocked for a moment; he hadn't planned on Kaidoh allowing him to sleep with him but there was an occasion when Kaidoh would completely mess up Inui's data.

"Alright then; you'll have to move over to the wall over there," he said. This was to keep Kaidoh from falling out of bed.

Kaidoh moved over and gave room for Inui to lie beside him.

"Arigato….for taking care of me," Kaidoh whispered as the street lights outside flickered on giving a little bit of light in the dark room.

"You're welcome Kaoru, anything for you. Oyasumi," said Inui.

There was small silence. Inui assuming Kaidoh was asleep, moved close to him and kissed the boy softly on the lips whispering, "I love you Kaoru. I wish I could tell you when you're awake, this will do for now though."

Inui placed his arms around Kaidoh's waist and slowly drifted off to sleep. Kaidoh's eyes opened and he smiled softly his hand covering Inui's own that rested on his waist.

"I love you too."

OWARI

(A/N: It's finished. >> It's a little shorter than I actually wanted it I'm afraid. Not to mention it leaves you thinking. Inui and Kaidoh both love eachother and can't say it to eachother's faces. XD Anyway, dispite the shortness (it was a mini-fic series after all) I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it! I have a new Inu/Kai project coming up, so be sure to look for it!)
