I know I have been gone for a while, and it's because school has been busy along with renovating my house, which has taken a mental toll on me. So I'm sorry if this chapter isn't fascinating.

Opening my eyes slightly to adjust to seeing the unfamiliar ceiling and felt very warm along with another body beside me made me wake up quickly before remembering I stayed the night at Kyoya's. I stayed late after we finished watching a movie together, basically a date night in, and spent some time doing homework and helping Kyoya with his german. I don't exactly remember when I fell asleep, but the last place we were was on the couch in his room.

I sat up and looked around to see Kyoya lying beside me, peacefully sleeping, before wrapping his arm around my waist and pulled me closer. I chuckled at his sluggish antics and gently ran my fingers through his hair before hearing my phone vibrate on the nightstand. Quickly, not to wake the beast, I picked it up and answered it while Kyoya cuddled into my side.

"Hello."

"Hey, where are you right now?" 

"Good morning to you too, Ryuu."

"Yes, good morning to you," He chuckled, "I need your help."

"With what?" I lean back against the headboard and continue to scratch Kyoya's head gently.

"Demonstration at the Expo in town, pops is hoping for people to sign up and merely wants us to get back into sparring in front of others. You'll likely do it because you love me."

"... That's not very convincing."

"and I'll buy lunch."

"Alright, I'll see you later." I hung up and tried to get up before realizing Kyoya was still holding onto me, causing me to smile and lean over to kiss the top of his head. "Kind sir, I need you to let me go."

That statement only caused him to pull me closer before hiding his face in my side, basically making me believe that my only uses in the relationship are to kick ass and be a teddy bear. Guess this is how Mori feels when he carries around a sleepy Honey.

"You're my new pillow, and I can seem to sleep easier when you're around."

"You're very endearing when you're half asleep."

"It's all in the process of persuasion in getting you to lay back down, now; how are you awake this early?"

"Out of the two of us, you're the one who likely didn't get enough sleep." I kissed his lips gently before showering him with gentle kisses and got up to collect my backpack. Once I made sure I had everything, I walked back over to Kyoya's bed and kissed his head, tucking him back in before leaving. "Have a nice short coma."

"I'd rather have a long one." He grumbled, kissing my hand before letting it go. "See you tomorrow; I love you."

"Wow, did you just say that?" I teased, earning a pillow hitting my arm.

"Yeah, I guess I did."

"Well, I love you too."

Quietly, I slipped out of the room and made my way to the front entrance of the house, making sure to avoid either his parents or family. While doing so, I passed a large portrait of Kyoya and his brothers, standing behind their father, who was still serious as always.

There were multiple occasions where I saw Mr.Ootori at gatherings when I was still attending Abe Academy but never had a lengthy face-to-face conversation, considering there was no real reason to talk to him in the first place. You could always find him talking to business people at a table and socializing with people who were likely either past patients or work associates. I think the only time I had talked to him was at one social gathering where I accompanied Ryuu and his father, basically representing the Dojo, and he came up to me to ask about the Dojo. The conversations lasted for a couple of minutes before he turned his attention to other business people. Other than that conversation a year and a half ago, we never interacted ever since. Guess sooner or later; we'll meet again.
