Darius looked up at Keanu, eyes filled with sorrow. "I like you, too, Keanu. But in truth, I don't want to like you." He sighed. Here comes yet another long story, but put in short. "I'm afraid to be hurt again. Because once when I liked someone, it turned to love. Snd one day she told me she didn't love me anymore, and it just..." Darius grit his teeth, tears stinging his eyes. "Hurt so bad."

"I'm sorry, Keanu." He lifted his long legs up, hugging them to his chest. "I really am."

~

"Heard you." Nathan said, opening the front door of hsi home. He grabbed Kya's hand and quickly walked her inside, leading her straight to Nathaniel's room. "Oh, um, this would be Nath's room..." he said, looking around.

~

Ryo hugged Colette, her scent hitting his sensitive nose hard. "I'm sorry, Colette. I've always had parents, and I ran away froim them. But you...you've been alone all yiur life. And thats bwhy I'm so sorry." He shifted a bit, biting his tongue. "I'm sorry."

Keanu looked at him, and said, "That isn't a good enough reason. So you're going to die old and alone because you were scared to love again? Sounds pathetic hun."

Kya smiled, waving at Morgan, saying, "Ummm I'm Kya. How's Nathaniel doing?"

( Go interact with people, Disk! D: )

Darius gave Keanu a look similar to a glare, but sighed. "You're not being very helpful, Keanu. Believe it or not, but I have feelings, too." Another sigh, and he straightened his legs out in front of him. "And I know its pathetic. I've always been pathetic. But Keanu, you just don't understand." A smile sneaked up on his lips.

"Maybe when you're older."

~

"Oh, and, um, that's our mother." Nathan said, waving a bit at her. She blinked, but waved back at the two.

"You can call me Morgan." she said, glancing back at Nathaniel for a moment. "And I'm afraid Nathaniel's not doing so well." She blinked again. "Wait, who are you here for? Nathan or Nathaniel? And don't say both, 'cause you can't date two people at the same time."

"Mo-om!" Nathaniel and Nathan chorused, Nathaniel's voice rasping a bit.

( Rofl. xD Thanks, Serenity.

*pokes Evessence* Go to Disk! D: She needs friends! )

Kya smiled, saying, "Well in a way I'm here for both. I'm here for Nathaniel, but I'm dating Nathan." Then she added, "Oh! And I'm Kya."

Keanu stared at him and said, "Well, what do you want me to do? Say I would have liked you then get up and disappear?"

"Oh," Morgan looked back at Nathaniel. "Well, Nathaniel's sick."

"Nathan," Nathaniel croaked, sitting up. Nathan hurried to his side, helping him up and walking him to the bathroom, where Nathaniel kneeled down and hovered over the toliet.

"Are you okay...?" Nathan asked.

"N-" Before Nathaniel could answer, he threw up, making Nathan wince.

~

"No." Darius buried his face in his palm. "Look, I really like you. Could you..." he looked down, biting his lip. "Just..." He hugged him, then kissed him lightly on the lips. "Make me forget. Everything." he murmured against his lips, arms tightening around Keanu's body.

Am I using him? Leading him on? Destery tilted his head, deepening the kiss slightly. I don't think so...

"You didn't do anything," Nathan said over his shoulder. Nathaniel coughed a bit.

"Yeah, you didn't do anything." he mocked, sneering a bit at his younger brother. Nathan glared at him, and he threw up again.

"Oh! Sorry, Nath." Nathan hugged him, sighing.

"Not your fault." Nathaniel coughed.

~

"I think you know how." Darius mumbled, burrowing into Keanu's neck. "And you'll do it, won't you?" His voice sounded pleading, and really, he was pleading. He needed Keanu, and if not forever, just now.

Kya sighed, saying, "Can't I feel sympathy? I feel really bad for you. He said you were coughing up blood. Shouldn't we, like, get that checked out or something??" She walked towards them, placing a hand on Nathan's shoulder.

Keanu sighed, but said, "Of course I would hun. You know that."

"Thank you," Darius murmured, hugging Keanu. He pushed him down so that he was on top of him again, the mischievous smile that he usually would have had being no where to be found.

He had done this hundreds of times with other people, but it felt a bit awkward with Keanu. He was about the same age as everyone else he had kissed, but it was different. Like he shouldn't be near Keanu at all. But he was, and his entire being protested.

Somehow, Darius brought himself to kiss Keanu again, biting his lip before he had done so.

~

Nathan looked up at Kya, then shrugged. "He's done this before, though."

"But Kya's right." Morgan said, coming up from behind Kya. "We should take Nathaniel to the hospital." Nathaniel shook his head, jaw tightening with a small pop.

"No, Mom. You know how I hate the hospital." he said, lenaing over the toliet again.

"Too bad." Morgan said, smiling.

Kya blushed slightly, looking at Nathaniel and whispered, "Whoops. Sorry."

Keanu sighed, wincing slightly at the bite, but kissing him back

( xD He bit his own lip.

But okay, that works. xDD *is cracking up* )

"Hate you," Nathaniel teased, standing up. "Kya." he finished. Nathan laughed, hugging Kya.

"But she's too cute to hate~" he said, nuzzling her. "How could you hate this face?" Nathan kissed her cheek, smiling.

Nathaniel sighed. "Yeah, I guess you're right."

~

Darius frowned, pulling away. "Is it safe to *censored*ume you've never been entirely serious?" he asked. "You know, while kissing someone?"

((Ooooh!))

Kya smirked, saying, "Thanks hun! And away we go!" She grabbed each one of their hands, and led the way out Nathaniel's room.

Keanu smirked, shrugging, not really saying a thing, and continued to kiss Darius.

"It doesn't matter. I just think about all these people running away from a fight when I would savor the moment to have a fight with them." Colette said hugging Ryo back tears gently sliding down her cheeks.

"What do you mean?" Ryo asked, rubbing Colette's back slightly.

~

"Ow, ow, ow. Please. Stop. Pulling that hand. You're stretching the-ow." Nathaniel pulled his hand back towards himself, not letting go of Kya's hand.

"She's stretching the ow?" Nathan blinked. Nathaniel smacked him hard on the side of the head.

"Don't act dumb, retard." he hissed.

"Well, you just called me a retard, so I suppose I am dumb." Nathaniel smacked Nathan again, and he cried out, whining softly.

~

Darius slipped his hand under the fabric of Keanu's shirt, feeling up his side. Surely that'll scare him a bit. he thought, smiling into the kiss. I can't be on top of him all the time, can I?
