I will most likely only write four chapters for the main heroes, so sorry, unless I get fed up with my other fics and decide to add on a few more little drabbles. In which case, eh.

Shio: She always says that.

Ro: glares I don't own Saiyuki, wish I did but I don't, so don't sue me.

Shio: Kei-chan's related to Minekura-san, isn't she?

Ro: I believe so, but on with the thing.

Enjoy, su!

It was funny, really. She honestly didn't think he didn't pick up on it; the way she stuttered when they talked, how her blue eyes darted every which way except his, how her face turned bright red when he would flirt playfully with her. Of course, he would never carry through with his ventures. He couldn't! She was just too sweet the way she was and he didn't want to ruin it. Thus the reason he was avoiding her recently.

"So here you are!" he heard her declare behind him.

Snapping his head around, his red eyes met her own amused, blue ones. Noticing the slight pink tinge on her cheeks, he smiled seductively at her, making turned into a full fledged red as it covered her face. It was things like that made him chuckle.

"You've been looking for me?" he asked curiously, looking back out his bedroom window at the sunset.

She ignored his question, deciding to sit quietly beside him on his bed. "I've noticed something recently," she began, still looking out the window. "When the sun sets, it's almost the exact same color as your hair and eyes."

He gave her an odd look, his heart secretly swelling at her words. "Funny, I've always linked to the color of blood."

"I don't see why," she said briefly as she stood and made for the door.

He shrugged and looked back out the window. "Oh, dinner will be ready soon," he heard her say.

He turned to reply, only he was met with the unexpected. What he came in contact with were her soft, warm lips on his cheek. He gave her a completely bewildered and baffled look.

She giggled cutely and said…

"You're really cute when you blush like that."
