Syo wondered why Ai did not want to be seen sleeping.

The first time they met, Ai warned him and Natsuki to stay away whenever the cyanette would sleep. Heck, there was even a boundary in their room that Syo wasn't allowed to cross unless permitted, and it really bugged the blonde for some unknown reason.

"Ugh...I don't get him sometimes!" Syo exclaimed as he tossed around his bunk bed.

Recently, he felt really strange around his sempai. For instance, his stomach would do back flips whenever his blue orbs would make contact with cyan colored ones. His heart would beat rapidly when Ai was near him, and the blonde would get hot and bothered everytime he was physically helped by his senior. He had already talked this over with Natsuki when they were alone and the shorter blonde did not like the other's response at all.

'You like him don't you?'

"Why the hell should I!?" Syo said to no one in particular although he did attract the attention of his Piyo-loving roommate.

"What's wrong Syo-chan?" Natsuki asked as he climbed up the other's bed.

"N-Nothing!" the younger replied as he turned his back to his companion.

"Is it about Ai-chan?"

"O-Oi! Don't just say that out loud!" Syo exclaimed as he sat up with a red face.

"Relax Syo-chan! He's not here." Natsuki assured his blushing friend.

"Whatever." The munchkin muttered as he closed his eyes. He would never admit it but what if Natsuki was right? What if his bizarre relationship with his sempai somehow managed to unlock emotions Syo never even thought he had towards the cyan-haired teen? What if those times where he disliked his sempai bloomed into something else, specifically, in a romantic sense?

'Ugh...maybe I shouldn't have minded him so much!' Syo thought helplessly.

"By the way Syo-chan, I won't be around 'till next morning because of my recording with Tokiya-kun." Natsuki began. "Will you be alright?"

"Of course I will be, baka!" Syo exclaimed. Frankly he was more concerned about Tokiya's well-being, having Natsuki around and all.

"Well I better start packing!" the taller of the two chirped and climbed down to get the things he needed. "Oh, and Syo-chan?"

Said boy responded upon being mentioned. "Yeah?"

"Don't do something I wouldn't do~!"

Syo's face turned beet red as he threw some pillows to his laughing roommate. He was going to do something but absolutely nothing of that sort!

What he planned to do was risky and maybe even life-threatening, but he was determined to do it anyway! He broke rules before so how should this be any different?

Tonight, Syo was going to take a look at his sempai's sleeping face.

~

Night finally came for Syo to execute his plan. The blonde did his work before going to bed, in accordance to Ai's schedule, and fake-slept for 2 hours since his sempai was still using the PC.

At exactly midnight Syo, with his awesome Prince of Fighting skills, silently made his way to Ai's bed. The blonde purposely opened the curtains a few hours ago to let some moon light in (and so he wouldn't trip over things and blow his cover). Expertly tip-toeing his way, Syo paused upon seeing the tuft of cyan hair that belonged to his sempai.

'Damn it Kurusu! Why are you getting nervous!?' the violinist thought. All the while he was confident about his plan but once he got nearer, his face became hot and his palms sweaty.

His heart raced; what was he so anxious of? All he had to do was to take a peek of Ai's (hopefully) sleeping face and then he'd go back to bed. Nothing else after that!

But....why does he felt like he wanted more?

"Get those thoughts out of your mind!" Syo whispered to himself as he shook his head. He had a mission and he was going to complete it. The blonde waited - and waited - for the other to shift. There was no other way for him to get a view so the only torturous solution was to wait. He almost fell asleep when he heard the shuffling of bed sheets.

'Finally!' Syo thought as he rubbed his eyes. He was curious what Ai looked like while sleeping and why the cyanette wanted others to stay away. The violinist couldn't help but feel somewhat giddy for his questions were about to be answered.

'Maybe he drools while he sleeps!' Syo added to his thoughts while stifling a chuckle that threatened to escape.

Oh how wrong he was.

Syo could feel his jaw drop at the absolutely perfect and peaceful sight.

Infront of him was the sleeping Ai; the usually expressionless and cold teen wore a look so...angelic. He looked as if he was the sweetest and most innocent being in the world (apart from Otoya), with his beautiful cyan eyes closed and with a steady breathing. Syo noticed that his sempai had his hair down therefore making him look like a girl - a very gorgeous girl in the blonde's opinion. Coincidentally, the little bit of light casted by the moon gave the cyan-haired teen an alluring glow.

'He looks cute.' Syo thought and instantly felt his face heat up. It might be dark but the blonde swore his face would put a tomato and all things red to shame.

Syo detected a few stray locks of cyan hair and was tempted to touch it. Should he? Well, he had already gotten this far so why not? It wasn't like Ai was going to wake up anytime soon. Gathering up the courage, he moved up the stray locks behind his sempai's ear. He didn't move his hand away afterwards; instead he found himself leaning towards the cyan teen.

'S-Stop it Kurusu! What the hell are you doing!?' Syo thought in panic but his body refused to listen. Was he really going to kiss him?

With only an inch left between them, Syo came into a conclusion: what Ai didn't see, he wouldn't know so to hell with this!

The blonde was going to close the gap - and he did! Syo felt like he was kissing the softest marshmallow ever and that marshmallow wasn't made by Natsuki! He never imagined the stoic senior's lips to be soft (more so to actually kiss the dude) and he could taste the slightest hint of mint. Syo could kiss Ai forever but he knew better than to stay.

Just as he pulled away, a pair of cyan eyes shot open.

"What do you think you're doing?" Ai asked, his angelic and peaceful atmosphere shattered into tiny, microscopic pieces - and Syo predicted would be the same fate for him.

"S-sempai!"

"I asked again, what are you doing?" Ai repeated in a harsh and demanding tone. If he weren't in trouble right now, Syo would have find the other's voice stimulating but damn this wasn't the time.

Finding it useless to lie, Syo sighed. "I kissed you alright?"

It was silent for a moment until Ai spoke up.

"You do know you're not allowed to cross my side of the room. Furthermore, you aren't supposed to come near me when I sleep." The cyanette explained. "You managed to break those rules in just one night. You really need to discipline yourself, shorty."

"I AM NOT SHORT!" Syo cried out in annoyance. Liked the guy or not, Syo wouldn't allow anyone to make fun of his height (although the blonde couldn't do anything about it most of the time.)

"You still don't know how to respect your senior. What am I going to do with you?" Ai continued.

Syo hung his head low. Not only did he felt rejected, he also felt humiliated. Now he had to face the consequences.

"S-sorry sempai." Syo muttered and started to head back to his bunk - but only to have his hand held by Ai.

"Where do you think you're going?" he questioned. "Don't you know that it's impolite to steal kisses from someone in their sleep? Now that I'm awake, do it properly."

Syo was dumbfounded. "H-Huh?"

"Kiss me." Ai said simply. "Or are you disobeying me, yet again?"

What?

Syo stared at him wide-eyed. Ai looked annoyed but the violinist couldn't shake off the teasing tone of the cyanette. Convincing himself to man up, Syo leaned in closer until he felt a pair of familiar lips on his. The demon inside the blonde wanted to just pin the other down and make-out with him senseless, but he controlled himself since Syo still valued his life. The kiss was sweet and somewhat chaste, and it made the shorter's heart go aflutter.

"Good. You actually listened to my order." The cyan-haired sempai exclaimed before unexpectedly pulling the other onto his chest - which served as an extreme shock for our beloved blonde munchkin and to all those who thought that Ai wouldn't do such. This is a damn fanfic; anything could happen. "According to my data, you have 4 hours left before 5am so you might as well sleep here. Walking back to your bunk will waste 10 seconds of time. You need all the sleep you can get if you want to grow taller."

Too tired to argue, Syo nodded and closed his eyes. He could actually hear the other's heart beat and it was oddly relaxing, like some kind of lullaby.

The blonde couldn't help but smile. 'So he does have a heart afterall!'

"Oh and Syo," Ai began. "Don't think that this event will go unnoticed in the morning. I will increase your schedule by three-folds and I will have to confiscate your Prince of Fighting items for the meantime. Understood?"

Syo grunted but agreed anyway. He got himself into this so there was no one to blame, really. His loss of freedom from the very detailed schedule and the temporary confiscation of his Prince of Fighting dvds were totally worth waking up next to the face of an angel.

End.

I ship Ai and Syo...SO EFFING MUCH! Ohayo my dear readers~! I was re-watching Uta no Prince Sama and a thought came to mind: why did Ai told Syo and Natsuki to stay away from him when he sleeps? Haha...so boom! A fanfic was written! I was supposed to post this many, MANY days ago but I kept on getting sidetracked *cough*school*cough* Anyway, the next chapter for The Swtich might take a while.

Where is Saotome and his no-love-rule you ask? He certainly isn't trapped inside a freezer that was thrown into the bottom of the pacific so that this fanfic could happen ;)

A bit OOC? Yeah I admit, but this is a damn fanfic - anything could happen!

Have a nice day my lovelies~!
