Title: He Takes Care of Himself (XII) Rating: PG Length: 106 Competitor: Raoul Round/Fight: 1/C Summary: Even as she drifts asleep, she can have a loaded conversation.
“Careful,” she whispers, her eyes drifting shut. “I’m still bruised from this afternoon.”
He snakes one arm around her, pulling her to his chest. “I always try to be careful with you, Kel.”
“Except when you’re knocking me from the saddle.”
“Well, yes. Except that.” He kisses the back of her head. “But you’re a sensitive one, for all your sensible, vegetable-eating ways. You have a lot of people who care about your happiness.”
She lifts his hand to her lips, kissing it. “And your happiness, Raoul? Who’s looking after that?”
“I am.”
“Not Buri?” her content smile falters; this is familiar, albeit uncomfortable ground.
“Me.”

Aww Though I would normally feel sorry for Buri, this is too wonderful not to love Raoul and Kel.

Oh, in context with the rest, there's nothing to feel sorry for Buri over - it's all good; they just have a relatively open relationship. Thanks!!

I am lost in which number is which of these, I think I skipped 13 completely (my total ignorance of Roman numerals is not helping here), which one is it?

I love how this could also be set-up for Kel/Buri or Kel/Buri/Raoul next round! I'm counting on them after Neal and Yuki went all serious on me and then both lost.

I know!! I really wanted Yuki to win so I could write wicked threesomes. (She's so perfect for that.) But Kel/Buri/Raoul would be nice in the end.
