So this is my debut on FanFiction...I guess that I should introduce myself. xD Hello! I'm a band student from the deep south who found KuroFai on accident when I was really into Tsubasa...I didn't even realize that they could be together until I'd gotten into yaoi about two years later. =/ I'm a fail. BUT I did fall in love with the pairing, and now write a lot for them...I'm thinking of several stories that I'm about to embark on, but to give the Tsubasa fandom a good representation about what I'm about, I decided that this would be the first.

**All credit goes to CLAMP and to Mayday Parade, who provide the couple, the lyrics, and the inspiration for this FanFiction

I heard this song, and immediately thought about what it would be to KuroFai and SaruMi (Saru and Yata from K Project) thanks to a friend of mine. :) But I'm not good at writing Saru...and I still kinda make Kurogane a little OOC...but ah well. We'll see how things pan out. Anyway, I hope that you guys like the first chapter of this fourshot series. ^.^ I'm going to try my best to update with speed, hoping that all of you guys still like the story and want it to continue.

Also...a little reviewing never hurt anyone. ;)

WARNING. This FanFiction contains yaoi, hints of mpreg, and some limes. It's rated M to be safe. If you don't like that stuff...then scoot yourself on to another story.

With that, I hope that you guys enjoy! ^.^


"Because life can do terrible things."

There weren't many nights in which Kurogane actually wanted to hear him play the piano...but tonight was one of those nights. The ones where the raven drew inside of himself, looking far away at something that, no matter how hard he tried, Yui could never see.

"Dad...are you sure?" The boy asked hesitantly, pale blue orbs fixing themselves on the red of his father's. The older male's eyes slid to his son, nodding once before looking out the window again, as though searching the hills for something that he'd lost. But Yui knew the truth; his father would search and search...but what he was trying to find was completely out of his reach.

Yui's feet padded softly to the corner of the room, over the wood floors that were worn with the trampling of little feet from the years. The boy's elegant hands went to an awkwardly shaped object in the corner of the room, covered in an off-white sheet. With one fluid motion, he pulled on the fabric. It slid off of the piano with a soft 'whoosh ', revealing the gleaming black surface underneath. It glowed in the low light of the fireplace, the dancing flames reflected in the polished ebony. The boy's fingers gently swept over the lid of the instrument, carefully sliding it back to reveal the bone white keys. Keys that were only a few shades lighter than his own fingers.

"What would you like to hear, Father?"

The raven was quiet for a moment, as though considering what he wanted to hear...but this was always uncalled for. He never picked anything else but a certain melody – the first song that Yui had learned on the piano when he was younger.

"That one you always play...,"

Yui nodded his head, placing his fingers over the keys. Moments later, a medium paced three note melody, played over and over again. Out of the corner of the boy's eye, he caught his father slipping his eyes closed, sighing at the sound of the beautiful music. This song was so easy...but it was his favorite. It was consistant; the notes would change, but the three note rhythm never did. It was safe, secure...not risky, like some of the other pieces that he played. Yui had always liked to keep to the sidelines, watching everyone else – he was a lot like his old man in that way. After all, Kurogane was all he had; he didn't want to join in playing with the other children. He needed to stay with his father, to make sure that the adult wouldn't break in half. There was something in his eyes...something delicate, something fragile; Yui wanted to protect it, to keep his father together if it was at all possible.

The raven haired boy couldn't remember a day that it hadn't been this way. His father had just always been this way...always by himself, looking up at the sky with a longing so piercing, it made Yui want to cry for him. It had been sixteen years at this point...sixteen years in which he had grown up always looking after his father, trying to keep him from going over the brink.

Not that Kurogane was a bad father; the reality was quite the opposite. He had always been there for every game, every elementary school play, every school festival...even though he'd worked a lot, he had made time for his son. He had played with Yui constantly when he was younger, given him hugs and rubbed his hair affectionately when he did something well. They had a great relationship...which was why Yui was so concerned for him. Before, he'd only seen that look on his father's face a few times a year...on certain days especially, though he never knew why. But as Kurogane got older, he seemed to be looking in the distance more, even on the verge of tears sometimes.

And always, as soon as Yui talked to him, those looks faded away, and he was able to come back from whatever memory held him in its grips. However, tonight it seemed that the past would have its first victory. His piano playing seemed to make Kurogane more sad if anything...so eventually, his hands slipped from the keys. His father turned his head quickly, looking at him in startled shock.

"Yui...why did you stop? You never stop playing in the middle of a song...,"

"I'm sorry, dad. It's just...," Yui didn't know how to say that he was scared of the looks on his father's face. He had used to tell this to the next door neighbor, Sakura-san, when she was looking after him because of Kurogane's busy work schedule...but he'd never had the guts to tell his father about it himself. He would much prefer to keep it a secret; after all, wouldn't it hurt Kurogane more to know that his son could see the weakness that he tried so hard to hide?

"What? What is it, Yui?" Kurogane's voice had gone soft now; he stepped over to the piano, putting a hand on his son's slender shoulders. "You need to tell me when something is wrong."

There had been something weird in his voice when he had said that...but Yui didn't call attention to it. He just shrugged. "You didn't seem to be enjoying it very much...," He finally said, looking up to his father bashfully. "I thought that I wasn't playing it as well as I usually did or something...,"

"You were playing it well, as always." Kurogane patted him on the shoulder, hand hesitating as though it wanted to go to his head, but stopping the motion as he remembered that his little boy was now 'too old' for things like that. He wasn't six anymore, but sixteen – it was time that Kurogane started treating him more like an adult than a little boy.

Yui nodded solmenly, and picked up his fingers again, positioning them on the keys. "You look pretty stormy yourself." Kurogane commented, shrugging his shoulders. The black haired boy looked up at him with shock in his eyes, realizing how heavy the atmosphere in this room had become.

"Sorry...,"

"You don't need to apologize...for that, anyway. You're lying to me about something, Yui Suwa. I want to know what's going on." His father didn't sound happy at all; the boy knew from years of experience that it was better to come out with it – his father's forms of punishment were always some kind of physical exertion, which he didn't really like very much. He wasn't a great athlete like his father; he could handle a sword okay, and had done very well when he'd taken kendo...but Yui was nowhere near his father's level of awesomeness.

That made him wonder...had his mother not liked athletics? He'd had to get his musical talent somewhere, along with his love for reading. But he couldn't know for sure; everything that he'd ever been told about his mom, he'd heard from Sakura-san and her husband, Syaoran-san.

"It's just...," The boy wasn't being honest. Yes, he did have something on his mind...or rather, someone. It was the first time in years that he'd ever been able to think about anything else but his father, and what secrets made those garnet eyes so sad. "...Well, dad, there's this girl...,"

Suddenly, Kurogane's eyes went dark. "No." He said sternly. "Get rid of her."

Well, whatever Yui had been expecting, it certainly wasn't that. "But...why?" He asked, hurt evident in his voice. He hadn't thought that his father would react like that. Kurogane always told him that he needed to meet people, find his way out of his shell. Now that Chiaki-chan was in his life, had gone out of her way to make him her friend...now that he realized what it was like to want to be around someone...he couldn't understand why his father would be unhappy! It didn't make any sense!

"Son, there are things that you just don't understand. You're better off without that girl. She'll only mess up your life." The words stung Yui, but he didn't show it. He set his jaw firmly, and looked up at the tall, muscular raven, glaring at him.

"Look, just because you and mom didn't work out doesn't mean that I'm not going to be able to have a good relationship with Chiaki-chan."

Kurogane spun around so fast, Yui almost missed it. His face twisted up in a growl, and his own glare was much more overpowering than the one that his son mustered up. "YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!" He thundered, slamming his fist on an innocent end table. "Don't you dare take that attitude with me, boy. You know nothing of what love is...of how much it takes away from a person. You don't know everything there is to know in the world, so don't you go around acting like you know every damn thing."

Yui stared at him in shocked silence. His father had never, ever risen his voice like that before. Not when he threw temper tantrums in the store, or defied him in other ways. Then again, Yui never mentioned his mother, either. He had crossed a line that he'd avoided ever since he knew how to talk...it was just an unspoken rule in the house that his mother would not come into any sort of conversation. But now, Yui couldn't take that anymore. If this was about his mother, like he knew it was...then he wanted his father to know how unfair it was.

But he knew that he'd made a mistake as soon as he looked back up at his dad and saw the pain in his eyes.

"I'm sorry for snapping." Kurogane said gruffly, turning away from his son and putting his hand to his forehead. "I just...I have my reasons. And as long as you live under this roof, I won't allow you to date anyone. You'll only hurt, Yui. I don't want you to be unhappy."

"But dad...lonliness is unhappy, too...," 'You prove that to me more than anyone else.' The boy thought, looking at his father. "And I really really like this girl! She's smart, funny, beautiful...knows how to cook and clean and all of that! She even knows how to sew! She is the greatest person I've ever met, dad...and I think that if it was meant to be, we could really have a shot at making it."

Kurogane finally turned, looking at his son with a wealth of sadness in his eyes. "Son...," He said softly, swallowing nervously, "I have my reasons...,"

"Then tell me!" Yui begged, standing. "I can't just let her go if there's not a good reason!"

There was a long pause in which Kurogane thought it over. Opening up the dam that he'd hidden his memories behind would be difficult...but his son was just as stubborn as he was...as his mother had been. The older raven finally sighed, shaking his head and looking down at the hopeful boy. He put his hand on the smaller male's shoulder, guiding him from the piano to the couch. He stayed standing, going to the fireplace and pulling a small scrapbook, dusty with disuse, off of it. Kurogane dusted it off, making sure that the gray film was completely gone before he handed it to his son. As Yui flipped the first page, the red eyes male dove into a story that he had never told.

"By the time I was your age...,"

xxxx

"By the time I was your age, I'd give anything

To fall in love truly, was all I could think.

That's when I met your mother, the man of my dreams

The most beautiful thing that I'd ever seen."

xxxx

'Well, at least things can't get much worse.'

The raven haired male, age seventeen, was standing in the middle of the town square, looking absolutely ridiculous. His damn sister had just left him in the flipping street, going off to shop for MORE crap that she didn't need. She kept saying that she was trying to make a dress for her best friend, whoever that was. He still didn't understand why he had actually volunteered to come with her – he knew better than to ever accompany Tomoyo to do ANYTHING. Yet, here he was...standing around like an idiot as he hoped and prayed that his little sister would decide to appear again, and take these girly looking shopping bags off of his hands.

That was when he saw...him.

The blonde hair was what first caught his attention. It shone in the bright, midday sun like a star. When Kurogane's eyes were caught, the descended upon the body of the man to which this hair belonged; he was long, willowy, lithe...much more slender than anyone he'd ever seen. If he were to put his arms about the male's waist, surely about three of him would still not be enough to make him unable to intwine his fingers. But none of this was anything compared to the person's face.

Kurogane got to see it when the male turned. His eyes found the raven's, a pale, fathomless blue staring surprisedly into the garnet embers. His face was so perfectly arranged, it was almost feminine – long eyelashes nearly transparent in the sunlight, a delicate nose, lips as pink as the petals of a flower...probably as soft as them, too. While Kurogane had never thought of anyone in a romantic way, he knew for sure that what he was feeling at this moment, right now, was something worth pursuing. His heart beat wildly in his chest, rushing all the blood to his cheeks; the poor male had to look away from the angel, bathed in the glow of the sun, the water into which he was staring making light blue patterns on his snowy white skin.

'Water...,' The raven looked back again, finding that the person had not looked away yet (to his embarassment). But more importantly, he was leaning over the pale stone ledge of the fountain in the center of the square. Kurogane knew this place well, and the stupid tradition that went along with it. It was said that whoever tasted the water would have a wish granted. Obviously, that was what this idiot was trying to do...and beautiful or not, believing in such idiocy made this guy a lot less attractive in Kurogane's eyes. He sighed, putting his hands back in his pockets. Was there not anyone with an ounce of intelligence anymore?

"Hey! Hey you! Tall, dark and handsome!"

The dark haired male's eyes sharply went back to the boy, sending a glare this way that could cut through anyone. Usually, when people saw that they weren't making him happy, they would back off...but not this idiot. The blonde just kept smiling and waving, grinning like a fool. "Come over here! I don't have anyone to talk to, you know?"

Kurogane knew that he shouldn't engage idiots, but he shouted a reply back across the square. "Why should I?" He rolled his eyes, beginning to walk into the store behind him to see if Tomoyo was anywhere around. There was a limit to how much shopping she could do in one day...wasn't there?

However, he would never find out whether or not his sister was in that store. The next thing he knew, there was a small, slightly cold hand gripping his, and literally pulling him back in the direction of the fountain. "Because I'm going to make you~," The blonde giggled happily, rushing to the edge of the centerpiece. "You look so scary in the shadows, mister! You should come out into the light so all the ladies can see how handsome you are~,"

There was no way that he would have known what to say to that. So instead, the taller male got defensive, spluttering about like a half-wit. "Who the hell are you?! Do you freaking get off on touching strangers?! Get the hell off of me!" He snatched his hand back from that pleasant grip, shoving his hand deep in his pocket again (though that hadn't stopped this guy from getting to it the first time).

"My name is Fai."

Through the harsh words, that male never stopped smiling. In fact, he was giggling now...only making Kurogane more likely to beat him upside the head. Or so the male told himself – in reality, there was no way that the raven would ever hit this guy. He was too small, too delicate. If he touched this fragile blonde wrong, he might even collapse.

However, that did not make him any less annoying. "You should see the water, Mr. Black!" He chirpped happily. "You know the legend, right? You get a wish if you taste the water! You don't look like you would normally do this sort of thing, so I'm going to help you out. Besides, it's no fun if I make a wish by myself...there's no one to ask about it afterwards!"

Kurogane just stared at the blonde. Finally, he managed to come up with something else to say. "Are you an idiot?" He demanded, shaking his head. "That's just folklore. Stupid crap. No one really believes it. People just come here as a formality – no one is looking to actually get what they asked for. It's a really nice fountain, I'll give you that. But there is nothing magical about this place. There is no wish that it can grant."

"Really?" Fai asked, his eyes twinkling. 'How the hell do they even DO that?!' Kurogane wondered, slightly on edge. He knew now that Fai was most likely a nut job escaped from some kind of insane asylum. He didn't want to deal with any crazies. But...it seemed as though this maniac wanted to deal with him. "Drink and find out. Wish for something that you think is absolutely impossible. I'm sure that you'll get your wish...whatever it was."

"How do you know that?" Kurogane was quickly becoming exasparated. He knew that Fai would insist until he did it, so it was best to just get this whole thing over with now so he could complain to Tomoyo about it later. But, if he was completely honest with himself...he liked this attention. No one had ever noticed that he hung in the shadows, that he didn't like going up and making stupid wishes from just one glance. Yet this Fai character seemed to have him completely figured out...whether he liked that or not.

"Because it worked for me~," The male got closer, only inches between them. He rose up on tiptoe so that his lips were at the raven's ear, and whispered in the words that became the glue that bound them together.

"I wished that today, someone would come along and make my life worth living."

Kurogane's face lit up in a blush, and he stared at the boy as he rocked back onto his heels, grinning nicely. "And I think that you just might be that person...Mr...,"

It took a moment, but Kurogane finally realized that this guy was hunting for a name. "Kurogane...," He said slowly, still not quite comprehending that he had just taken on the wish of another person. A powerful wish, one that would affect Fai's life for years to come. Luckily for Kurogane, at that point, he chose correctly.

"Okay, Kuro-tan~!" The blonde chirpped happily. "Let's be the best of friends, okay?"

"What the hell did you just call me?! And who said I wanted to be your friend?! I haven't agreed to anything!"

"That's not true~," The boy winked at Kurogane, looping his arm around the taller male's broad shoulders...or what he could reach of them. "You told me your name. If you didn't want me to know anything about you, then you wouldn't have given that away so easily. The only other conclusion is that you would like to be around me. Aren't I right?"

That was a question that Kurogane would never answer with words.

xxxx

"He said, 'Kuro-myuu, can I tell you a wonderful thing?

I can't help but notice you're staring at me.

I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe

I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me."

xxxx

Kurogane was beginning to realize that he was kind of obsessed with Fai. Not in the creepy stalker-esque way...he wasn't following him around or anything...but it was definitely there. They were spending nearly every moment of their lives together. Always, they were doing something with each other, with groups of their friends, or something else. To everyone else, the outcome of this was obvious. They could see it in the way that the two looked at each other, the way that Fai's teasing nicknames suddenly stopped annoying Kurogane so much, and the fact that they would be sitting really close together and not even notice.

Of course, the couple in question were completely blind to this, so their friends figured that it would be better not to say anything.

The raven soon learned that Fai was attending his higschool, where they would both be seniors; they ended up graduating together, and even though the blonde was at the beginning, in the D's, and other was in the S's, they still managed to communicate through sharing glances the entire time...much to the enjoyment of their friends and anyone sitting around. Of course, as soon as they all tossed their caps into the air, Fai was in Kurogane's arms, hugging him and cheering about how they were finally free to live their lives, how he never thought that he would survive highschool. It was too bad that Kurogane thought nothing of it at the time.

That wasn't the only place they went together; Kurogane also discovered that his new friend was an avid pianist...and a damn good one, too. He didn't play for any of the school's ensembles, but he was tutored by a professor at their town's university. Fai held many recitals for college students years older than him, who were either green with envy or slackjawed at his skills. Kurogane fell into the second category – every time that he heard the blonde play, it was like he was transported to another world. Fai didn't just play the piano...his soul sang through it. He played complicated passages with ease, stroking the lagato notes and gently tapping the staccatto, creating actual emotions with his playing. He could play songs that could leave the crowd feeling giddy and giggly, but he was absolutely best at making them cry. It was a bit unsettling for Kurogane that he was able to coax such emotions out of the crowd – hell, even he teared up a little bit - , but for the most part, he just enjoyed the shows. After all, Fai had a talent. There was no way that he could just tell the blonde not to use it.

Soon, Kurogane discovered that he was perfectly content listening to the blonde play for hours, just drinking in the music as his fingers ran artfully over the keys. He would often accompany Fai to his lessons, or just hang out in the rooms in which he practiced after school. Sometimes, Fai would tell him that he could go home...he'd been there for two or three hours...and Kurogane wouldn't believe it until he'd seen the clock. But his answer was always the same – he wanted to stay there and listen as long as the blonde could play. So stay the raven did...and he learned much more about the blonde and the piano than he ever would have otherwise.

Fai was an avid reader. He would read up a storm, sitting for hours in the library if he could. He read tons of romances and action novels. His favorite genre was realistic fiction, and there were several books that were his favorites. In fact, books pretty much controlled a big part of his life...and they were something that Kurogane had to learn to love if he was going to get anywhere close to the male. Fai would chose books for him to read, and for a long time, the raven would refuse, saying that they were too girly or that he really didn't read. But finally, there was one book that actually seemed to catch his attention.

"It's called Ender's Game. You should really read it, Kuro-myuu! You'd love it~!"

"It's not about vampires, is it?" Kurogane had asked with chargrin, looking over at him with a disgusted look on his face.

"Not at all! It's got battles, strategy, weapons, war, and not really any romance!"

Well, that cinched it. Kurogane figured that he could read it and get the other male off of his back a little. At least then the guy wouldn't be begging him to read anything else. If he could just read this book and survive through it...at least it wasn't a romance. So he checked it out from the library, and turned to the first page, thinking that he could probably just look it up on SparkNotes or something to get the plot. Then, if the blonde had any questions, he would be prepared.

Except...from page one, Kurogane was hooked. He really liked Ender Wiggin, and found himself seeing the battles in his head, feeling the things that the boy felt. Though they had a gulf of reality between him, the raven found himself beginning to get attatched to the kid. He got to know Ender as though he were sitting in the room with him, telling him of his adventures. It was the first time that Kurogane had ever really enjoyed a book. The best part was that Fai knew it, too, and they were able to talk about it all the time.

Fai got Kurogane into reading. Now, he didn't read books every day like the blonde did, but he learned how to find books that he liked. Soon, he would be reading a good one every once and awhile, sometimes finding awesome ones that Fai didn't know about. It was what really pulled them in and made them friends – they found something that would keep them together.

That wasn't all; Fai got Kurogane into music. He showed him bands that had good beats and good music. Some he liked; more of the hard rock/metal stuff was his thing. He didn't like some of Fai's pop bands, but he didn't turn it off when the blonde wanted to hear it. He liked watching him dance around the room, singing such sappy things at the top of his lungs it was almost embarassing. But Kurogane never tired of it.

He was starting to think that he could never get tired of Fai.

One day, though, their friendship was torn down in favor of something much deeper. The two knew each other extremely well now – they knew likes and dislikes, secrets (most of them, anyway), what the other wanted to be when they got out into the world, plans for after highschool...nearly everything. They were hanging out more and more now, sometimes sleeping over at each other's houses, sometimes even staying out all night, much to the worry of each set of parents. They were extremely busy with one another...and they liked it that way.

But one day, something changed for Kurogane. The feelings that he'd had when he'd first met Fai began to resurface again. He began to stare at the male more often, appreciating the way that he looked when he laughed...the way that his face lit up, and that mouth of his opened up to reveal a smile so bright, it was blinding. He would watch Fai walk, move, run, dance...anything. His eyes were glued to the movement, watching the way his body turned and twisted. That wasn't all; Kurogane also realize that he was a big fan of Fai's sleeping face, too. The male was beautiful when he slept...eyelashes brushing his cheeks, lips relaxed or, if he was lucky, curled in a small smile. He liked to sleep at Kurogane's side, too, curled into him...and even once, on his lap. There was no way that the male would ever tell him how much he loved this, but it turned out that he didn't need to.

There was a second time that Fai slept on Kurogane's lap. They had just gotten back from one of his recitals. This one was special because it was put on in order to help the blonde raise money for college. His family wasn't rich, but his mother and father really wanted him to go on a music scholarship. So he used his talents to get him the money...and now his schooling was almost paid for. Kurogane, on the other hand, could pretty much afford everything; he'd offered to help Fai, but the blonde had refused in the weirdest way.

"It's not like you love me or anything. Amounts of money like that shouldn't be given to friends only, Kuro-sweet."

For the longest time, Kurogane hadn't had the slighest idea what Fai had meant by that. He pondered it for several nights, wondering what the hell the stupid blonde meant. Not in love? Hell, if only he knew. If this wasn't love, it was certainly some kind of weird attraction...and he would be really grateful as if it stopped.

This night was one of those where was pondering; they had decided to watch a movie together to celebrate Fai's success...and without warning, the male had just laid his head in Kurogane's lap, and curled up. "I can see better this way~." He'd giggled then, and no matter how much the raven grumbled, he refused to budge. "Kuro-tan is comfortable! I don't want to get up~!" He insisted, smiling happily all the while. Kurogane just gave up at that point – he really didn't want the male to move, and it would be much nicer with him there.

At some point during the movie, Kurogane looked down and found Fai asleep on his lap, curled up and facing toward his stomach. He smiled to himself, shaking his head; this was just like the damn blonde, to fall asleep in such a crazy position. 'He probably thinks himself totally safe...all snug and warm...,' The raven thought, sighing. He wanted to get the male a blanket, but he was kind of in a bind – he didn't want to get up and disturb the sleeping blonde. There Kurogane stayed, staring down at the beautiful blonde and admiring him.

'I wish that I didn't like him so damn much.' The male thought, sighing. 'Then maybe I wouldn't think about how wrong I am to like him all the time.'

Kurogane didn't have a problem with being gay. He didn't really think of himself as that – he just liked Fai, and no other man but Fai. What he did have a problem with was his own shortcomings. He wasn't as good, as pure, or as beautiful as the blonde was...and he deserved someone like that. Kurogane could just picture the other with a beautiful girl, having the perfect life and family. He couldn't imagine that, no matter how hard he tried. Sure, it was possible to have a family now with two people of the same sex, thanks to advances in medicine...but there was no way that Fai would ever choose him.

"...Kuro-myuu, can I tell you something wonderful?"

The raven flinched at the words, heart beating rapidly in his chest. "D-dammit, Fai! You scared the shit out of me!" He growled, frowning down at the boy. All he got in return was a giggle...and no acknowledgement of his words. The blonde just continued on talking, shocking Kurogane to the core with what he said.

"You stare at me all the time...and, well...I know that I shouldn't really be saying this, but...I think that you're in love with me." The blonde grinned and poked him on the nose; sitting in front of the raven, there was no way that he could miss the blush that spilled across those tan cheeks or the flustered, shocked gaze that revealed what he said to be true.

"...Is that a bad thing?" Kurogane asked, looking at the male with an uncomfortable look. He tried to tell himself that he'd be perfectly fine if he was rejected, that he would go on with the rest of his life and be totally, completely okay. But inside, he knew that was a lie. He was afraid of this answer...of this situation...and there was nothing he could do to aviod it.

Fai smiled, sitting up and turning himself so that he was sitting backwards on Kurogane's lap. Before the raven knew what was happening, soft, warm lips pressed quickly to his, eliciting a surprised grunt from the taller's mouth. They lingered there for a few seconds, the pretty pink mouth pressed to Kurogane's own, before the blonde pulled away. To his relief, there was a bright red blush vibrantly showing against the pale skin, giving away some of Fai's feelings.

"Not at all...'cause I love you too...,"
