Donde Estas Corazon

New Beginnings

 

 

 

Haru couldn\'t believe that a year had gone by as fast as it did. It felt like
only yesterday he had just started at the academy, he determined it was definitely
better than having to deal with numerous years of schooling that a university
would have demanded. He could only wonder what those students had to go through
and sent them an unspoken condolence on their endeavors. He briefly wondered
how much Kyou would continue with since the neko was only taking two classes
at the moment. Mostly it seemed like his kitten used it as a way to pass time
between video games.

The ps2 had to go… buried… burned… encased in concrete then
thrown into a random body of water… there was many ways of dealing with
that evil machine that seemed to be hell bent on consuming all of his kitten\'s
time.

If only the ps2 knew what Haru was plotting, it may have head for hills and
found itself a new home. That is, if the system had legs and feet to flee
with.

His duffle bag was packed with the few items and cloths that he kept at the
academy\'s dormitory and the ushi slung it over his shoulder, giving the room
one last glance to make sure he didn\'t forget anything. Seeing that everything
was packed, Haru picked up the papers with his new orders and his set of keys.

The ushi waved goodbye to the clerk at the front desk and walked out the
door of the building to his new cruiser. One last thing needed to be picked
up, Haru thought with a smile, his kitten.

Kyou was feeling unusually creeped out for some reason. He wasn\'t sure if
it was the quiet atmosphere that seemed to be saturating the house, or the
absence of the other residents.

Tohru was at school, that much he was positive of. He had no clue about where
the inu or nezumi were, but as long as they stayed the hell away from him,
he was quite happy. The neko started flipping through channels trying to decide
if he should just stay where he was or go finish playing that Evil Dead game.
Ah, decisions, decisions, he thought.

If the neko did know, he may have just up and left.

Currently, Shigure was conniving Yuki into his latest little scheme. "It\'s
perfect! Ha-kun\'s not around to freak out on us, and you can hold down Kyou
without any problems! What could possibly go wrong?"

Yuki rolled his eyes, "It\'s still not right, why are you so obsessed
with that anyway?"

The inu mentally remarked, book research, but that wouldn\'t do any good by
Yuki\'s standards. "I know you want to see them too! Don\'t deny
it~" The inu finally answered with a smug grin.

Okay, so it was true, he did want to see them. Yuki felt relatively positive
he was well over his love for the neko and had moved on, but he couldn\'t deny
that he did still find the neko alluring. Shigure had him there. "I
swear to god, if you make me regret this, I will hurt, maim or kill you."

Shigure rubbed his hands together as his scheme was finally set in motion.
"Great, let\'s do this~"

Kyou couldn\'t get rid of the creepy feeling. It was starting to bug him until
an arm wrapped around his neck and his wrists were grabbed and lifted above
his head. "What the fuck?!" He screamed trying to yank his arms
out of the iron grip they were in.

"Stop squirming." Yuki calmly told him.

The neko freaked out when he lifted his eyes to Yuki\'s vexed expression.
"Let me go you kuso nezumi!!" The arm around his neck tightened
and any other words that would have escaped his mouth were cut off with his
air supply.

Shigure appeared in front of him, quickly lifting the shirt Kyou wore. "Wow!
They do look good!" The inu said with a smile.

Looking over Kyou\'s shoulder, Yuki silently agreed with the inu, his eyebrows
rose in appreciation. Kyou was gasping from the choke hold he was in when
suddenly it relaxed as Yuki\'s restraining grip vanished and he could breathe
again. Catching his breath, Kyou raised his eyes to Shigure who was a vision
of pure horror. "Oh no…" The inu whispered under his breath.

Speculating something was obviously amiss; Kyou turned and saw what Shigure
was looking at. Behind him on the other side of the couch, Haru was standing
with rage stamped across his face. The ushi was holding a black nightstick
in his right hand, Kyou looked to his left and saw Yuki sprawled out on
the floor holding his head in his hands; the nezumi appeared to be in some
serious pain.

Shigure started backing up as the ushi advanced slowly around the couch,
tapping the weapon against his leg. The neko crossed his arms across his chest
and relaxed back into the couch, watching mutely as Shigure kept backing up
with his hands held up in front of him trying to ward the ushi off.

When the inu tried to make a run for it, Haru grabbed the collar of his kimono
and jerked backwards causing Shigure to fall on his side. "Ha-kun we
were just-

The rest of his words were stifled as the ushi brought the nightstick down
repeatedly against the inu\'s back and shoulders. "What-" smack
"-the fuck-" smack "-is your goddamn problem!?!"
smack smack.

Yeup, that was definitely Black Haru speaking, Kyou thought with a grin as
he enjoyed the beating the hentai inu was being given. One final whack from
the nightstick and the ushi stood up over the cringing inu. He switched his
gray eyes over to Kyou and said, "Get your stuff, we\'re leaving."

Blinking rapidly, the neko was quick to jump from the couch, running to the
door then pausing before dashing back to press his lips against Haru\'s and
was off again. The patter of his feet could be heard ascending the stairs
in his haste.

Yuki shakily sat up rubbing his abused scalp. "You\'re leaving? But Kyou
has school and…" The nezumi trailed off when furious gray eyes shot
in his direction. "Never mind."

Shigure was massaging his aching shoulder when he sat up. "Did you have
to hit that hard? And as Kyou\'s guardian I have to object to this. Yuki is
right, he does have school."

Dropping his eyes back to the inu at his feet, Haru pulled his dark blue
jacket back slightly, revealing the holster and gun underneath. "You
want to argue? You can argue with this." He replied darkly.

The inu\'s eyes grew huge, "Uh, nope. No argument here." The ushi
let the jacket fall back into place and pivoted on his booted heel to go help
Kyou get his things together.

Yuki rested his arms against his knees from his spot on the ground, watching
until Haru departed. "You\'re going to pay for this Shigure."

"Aa, I know…and Haru\'s pretty scary right now…we should probably
make ourselves scarce." Yuki nodded at this and the two did exactly that.

Kyou couldn\'t help fiddling with the bells and whistles in the police cruiser.
What the heck did an officer need with a dvd player anyway? The other stuff
he could understand, but that dvd player…it really made him wonder.

"Where are we going?" Kyou asked, watching the vehicles progression
on the in-car GPS tracking their positioning on an inlayed monitor.

Turning onto route 295, Haru told him, "Just outside of Tokyo, kitten.
I was assigned to a district there, got us a place close by."

The neko was ecstatic that they were at long last out of Shigure\'s house
and the reach of the Sohma clan. Not that they had to worry about what the
other Sohma\'s thought, but it still felt like a weight had been lifted. They
were without a doubt free to continue their lives without any repercussions
or fears. The best part, the neko decided, was that he finally had Haru back.

A thought flashed through the red eyed boys mind, "When do you start
work?"

"Not for another week. This way I can get all the paperwork at headquarters
filed and we can get moved in." Gray eyes flicked from Kyou back to the
road.

This was too good, the neko\'s mind reeled. It was a vacation in its own right;
he couldn\'t wait to get to their new apartment.

Arriving at their destination, the two retrieved only the essentials from
the car, deciding to bring in the rest the following day. They both just wanted
to climb into bed and sleep.

The apartment was on the second floor, and it was more accurate to call it
a condominium, since there was only a top and bottom floor, an apartment occupying
each. The furnishing was sparse, but it did already have an empty entertainment
stand, couch, kitchen table and chairs, and most importantly a bed. After
placing the ps2 on top of the oak stand in the living room, Kyou explored
the rest of the dwelling and on finding the bed, immediately sprawled out
over it.

It was worlds more comfortable than the futon, the neko thought. Only one
thing would make it even better than it was now, and that one thing joined
him shortly afterwards.

Throwing an arm over the neko\'s stomach, Haru sighed contentedly, his mind
replaying the day\'s events. His nightstick had been put to good use, and he
had his kitten all to himself, finally.

Curling up against the ushi and resting his face against Haru\'s chest, Kyou
found himself drifting off to sleep. "Haru?" He whispered.

"Yes kitten?" The ushi said, wrapping both arms more securely around
the boy next to him.

"Love you." Kyou managed before the veil of sleep claimed him.

The dim light from the hallway slanted under the closed door. Gazing at the
minimal light, a smile touched the ushi\'s lips. "Love you too."
