A/N: So this is because-after weeks of waiting and much internet stalking-the new season started! =D

So I wrote this because at the end...Idk, I just got the feeling that maybe something more(SPOILERALERT) than them(them being Takano and Ritsu) sleeping together.

Say like...a conversation of sorts?

"You really are horrible."

That was the only way to describe Ritsu at the moment. Horrible.

Not so much because he'd forgotten the moment of intimacy they'd had last night-if the look on Ritsu's face was anything to go by as he fell to his knees, he'd recall that soon enough.

No, that wasn't what bothered him at all...

"Ritsu?"

"Mmm...?" the brunet hummed in his arms.

"I want you to stay here." he'd answered, hugging the lithe body closer to him.

"Baka...I am here..." the green eyed male slurred irritably. Which Takano translated to 'What more do you want?'

Absently he'd pressed his lips to one of the many marks he'd left Ritsu, this one placed on his shoulder, "But what about tomorrow?" when this failed to produce a response he went on, "I want for you to be here tomorrow and the day after that, to know you're getting enough rest and actually sleeping on a bed. That you're eating better than convenience store meals and energy drinks. To know that you'll be here at the end of my day." to emphasis his point he reached out, lacing his fingers with Ritsu's.

After a moment's silence the brunet quietly replied, "That would be nicer..."the unease in voice was so clear, 'Do you mean it?'

"And?" Takano pressed, gently squeezing the other's hand.

"And...I would like that..." Ritsu finally answered hesitantly, "But...only if-"

'If you were serious...'

"I love you." he was quick to reassure.

Relaxing, the younger male laughed softly, "Okay..." 'We'll see...'

So it wasn't the love confession he'd been expecting-but it had meant so much coming from Ritsu. It meant that maybe; just maybe, the green eyed male was opening up to him. That he wanted to stay with Takano as much as Takano wanted him around.

But as he stormed out, harshly yelling something about keeping his fantasies in check Takano couldn't help but wonder at Ritsu's oh so selective memory and just how much he really did recall.

And how much was an act.

Sighing he spoke to his now empty apartment, "He really pisses me off..."

A/N: And there...not sure if I like how it turned out-but I really did like the idea behind it and am glad I got to write it out today. I'm fairly happy with it-so what say you? n.n
