     [ Chapter 3 : Can Memories be Powerful? ]

             ~Monday Morning: Kid's Room~

        I wake up around noon. I yawn, stretching. My gaze falls on Kid, who is asleep in a chair. 'I want to draw on his face. As long as it's symmetrical, he won't care, right?' I try to get out of the bed quietly to look for a marker, but I still manage to wake him up.

        "Mm... Fuyu...?" Kid says, rubbing his eyes sleepily.

        "Shhh..." I quiet him. "Go back to sleep."

        "... Ah... What time is it...?" He asks, still in sleep mode. I feel that he isn't paying attention, so I just shush him once more.

        I gently sneak over the side of the room he is on, grab a marker, and walk up to him quietly.

        "... Please don't draw on my face..." He says quietly, almost asleep.

        "I won't... Just go to sleep..." I soothe, trying to make him fall asleep so I can draw on him. At that precise moment, he finally snaps out of his dream-like state.

        He jumps up from the chair. "Ah ha! I knew you were going to try to draw on my face!" He says, pointing at me.

        "Nuh-uh!" I argue, hiding the marker behind my back.

        "Yeah! I totally saw the marker! Ah ha ha! You thought you'd get away with it!"

        "I will!" I jump on him, sending him falling backwards onto the floor. A pillow softened our fall. I point the uncapped marker toward his face, but he's pushing my wrist away, making it impossible for me to make contact. I start laughing uncontrollably.

        "I won't let you!" He laughs along with me.

        "No fair! You're a guy! Guys are stronger than girls!"

        "Geez, you're sexist! But you're on top of me; you have the upper hand! So we're even!" He wrestles me off onto the space next to him and I snatch one of his rings.

        "Hey! Give that back!"

        "Nope!"

        "Gimme! I'm asymmetrical now!"

        "But you're always asymmetrical!" I say, jumping up and running away with the ring. I hear him chasing after me.

        When we pass Liz, she looks at us like we're insane. "What are you two doing?!" She screams, but we're going to fast to say anything.

        "Give it!"

        "NEVERRR!" I yell, laughing. I run into one of the guest rooms. It takes a while for Kid to realize that I had turned off of the main hallway, so I used that time to crawl under the bed.

        He finally walks into the room. Immediately, he drops to the floor and looks under the bed. "Ah ha!" He says, grabbing at his ring I hold in my hand. I move out of his reach just in time.

        He starts to slide himself under the bed, and I shriek. If it's a game, I think I've just lost. I form into a ball, the ring at my center. Kid tries to pry my hand off of his ring, but my grip is too strong. Suddenly, I pop the ring onto my finger.

        "Noooo! Give it back!"

        "Sorry, it's mine now!"

        "Kid...? Fuyu...?" Liz's voice sounds from outside the room. "What's going on?" She asks. I can see her feet.

        Both of us stop moving, refusing to make a sound until she leaves.

        "Kid, if you don't come out now, I'll personally destroy all of the symmetry in this house!" Liz threatens.

        That's enough for Kid. "Noo!" He jolts upward, hitting his forehead on the bed in the process. He falls back down onto the floor beneath the bed, an immediate bruise forming on the right side of his forehead. I can't help but let a giggle escape.

        Liz lifts the lightweight bed and peeks at Kid. "Oh, stupid...!" She scolds. "What are you doing down there? It's dusty! And that was pretty stupid of you, banging your head on the frame like that!"

        "That's your fault, Liz! You're the one who threatened me!"

        "First of all, I didn't threaten you, I threatened your symmetry. Second, get out from under there!"

        "Then tell Fuyu to give me my ring back!" Kid pouts.

        "Fuyu-chan... I thought you knew better than to make Kid even more asymmetrical...!"

        "You thought wrong, then!" I giggle.

        "Give iiiiiit!" Kid whines like a child.

        "Nooooo!" I mock him.

        "Fuyuuu... Liz, make her give it back!"

        "What are you, three?! You're the son of a Shinigami! I'm pretty sure you're capable of taking your own ring back!

        Yay! Do you think this sweet? (Because I do, and I really hate my writing, so that's saying something...) I hope you liked it! Comments and reviews are appreciated!
