Chapter 4 : Questions~

Warm… it's so warm… He felt very comfortable; by moving around a bit, Endou realized that he was wrapped up in a large, heavy blanket. The mattress and pillow beneath him were super soft. But where am I? Keeping his eyes closed, he tried to recollect what had happened, and a rather strange image came to him: Aphrodi sitting on top of him, looking down while a bright light framed his silhouette, forming a halo as if he were really a goddess. Oddly he found that he couldn't remember anything else after that. But the painful memories from before were definitely intact.

Endou slowly opened one eye, then the other before quickly sitting up. His head throbbed from the movement so he shut his eyes again, pressing his palms to his forehead. The pain soon disappeared. He inhaled deeply and opened his eyes. Only then did Endou finally notice his environment, and he stared around, amazed.

The room was so big it made Endou's bedroom at home would look like a closet in comparison. In fact, although it was furnished simply, pretty much everything in the room was either extremely large or extremely fancy. The bed he was on was a huge four poster bed but it had the softest pillows and mattress he'd ever slept on. There was a large window next to the bed; the pale transparent curtains were closed but a shaft of light had snuck through. On the other side of the bed was a small but elegant dining table, even including a chair. Across from the bed stood a large wardrobe; beside it was the door, which stood ajar; and alongside that was a study desk, similar to one he had but much bigger. Looking down at himself, he was stunned to find that he was wearing golden silk pajamas. All these sudden discoveries were making his head spin real badly; plus he was beginning to get frustrated as he failed to piece together what had happened.

Just what did happen? Where the heck am I? He thought in alarm.

"Endou!" Even though it had called softly, he still jolted at the voice calling his name. Standing at the doorway across from him was Aphrodi, dressed in a frilly yellow apron over a white t-shirt and blue slacks, holding a large tray loaded with a bowl, chopsticks, napkin holder and a silver pot. His hair was tied up in a bun but a few wisps curled around his head. Endou stared, his mouth slightly open. The blonde appeared so… so… feminine… Well, he'd always seemed feminine but this vision at the door was like someone else entirely. Endou blinked twice to make sure he was really seeing Aphrodi.

The blonde smiled and asked, "How are you feeling, Endou?" Male voice; it was definitely Aphrodi.

"Where am I?" Endou asked, his defenses up again; but why was it suddenly so hard to do so around Aphrodi? "Is this your house?"

The addressed boy only nodded silently before crossing the room to him and setting the tray unto the dining table that was near to the bed.

"I made some chicken noodle soup," he explained. When Endou didn't say anything he sighed and added, "I thought you might be hungry." The pot lid was removed and a delicious fragrance wafted from the pot. Endou's stomach growled in response; he realized that he was starving. He gazed at the pot hungrily.

Aphrodi snickered and Endou snapped up with a glare. The other boy immediately stepped back, hands held up defensively.

"S-sorry," Aphrodi muttered.

Endou sighed and looked away from him. It's not his fault. He pushed the blanket off and sat on the edge of the bed with his back to Aphrodi, but he kept an eye on him over his shoulder.
