Welcome to Gaia! ::

'Stupid, stupid stupid!' He was not doing well at all. So much for making it up to her for allthe stuff he did. Kyoshi walked over to the couch and layed down on it with a cig in his mouth. Shutting the T.V. off he just listened to the running water of Dusks shower and felt his eyes heavy with sleep. He let himself drift off into nothingness which was good in his book. Then again, it was a bad that it was getting dark and foggy and a lone figure came up to him. He gritted his teeth to not yell or anything. He whimpered softly and tried to not make any sound. Damn, how these nightmares come up out of nowhere on you. He was going have to become a vampire and sleep during the day instead of the night.

Kyoshi woke up without opening his eyes when the blanket was placed on him. "Why don't you take your own advice once in a while?" He mumbled. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and opened them. "Thank you the blanket." He said quietly. He looked at her clear and then almost had another heart attack at the sight of what she wore. 'Not again. No freaking way, not again.'

Going against everything that told him to stay away he traced a finger along her arm. "But you put up with me anyways.....Is that about right?" He asked pulling his fingers away. 'No touchie, remember? No Touchie.'

"Because I...." Kyoshi looked away from Dusk. He was setting himself up for failure and it looked like it was already set up. "I just....I mean I....But there is.....And then...." He wasn't making any sense at all. For a guy he sucked at life in talking to women. "You put up with me too, with my stubborness and my..." 'Nightmares and the screaming and everything that goes with it.' He covered his face with his hands and sighed. "I'm not making any sense. I'm nothing but a waste of time, Dusk. Just....i don't know." He wanted to touch her again. Her skin was soft. It smelled good from where he was, which was pretty close and he shouldn't because look what happened when Adam and Eve ate the forbbiden fruit. They were punished for it and he was cautious of what the consequeneces were if he took a bite out of his forbidden fruit, Dusk.

Kyoshi shook his head at Dusk question. He wasn't going to say anything that the other man said because it wasn't his place to do so. A part of him respected Dusk and her privarcy. Just like she won't tell anyone about his episode the night before, he wasn't going to say anything about her. He would take it to the grave before that ever slipped. Kyoshi took in a deep breath and almost jumped off the sofa at the sight of her smiles and grins. It took alot of control to stay still. 'Breathe, steady.' "Did you just called me Kyo?" He hoped it was some of his imagination playing with him because no one called him Kyo.

"Yes it is a problem. No one calls me that and no one would even dare to call me that. Your part of that group of no ones not allowed to call me." He flicked the tip of her nose. "Just call me Kyoshi." Again, he grins did something to him that no other grin could do. 'Focus on anger thoughts.' Those grins were really distracting.

He examined his finger and then looked at her pout. 'DAMNIT!!!! Why does she do this to me? Why does it affect me? I'm going to hell for this.' "Only because you called me other names like Old Man and A**hole and some other ones that I don't even know of yet. So suck it up magic girl." Thinking back on it again," I never called you Brat but now I'm half tempted to use it." He then gave her one of his grins. The gesture touched his dark blue eyes, making them sparkle in the light of the room.
