Key was angry.

Not only had he been forced to leave Jonghyun's place, but he had to do something else as well.

Something that no sane feline would have done on their own accord; something that was making him scowl at his angriest as he pressed his back against the the cool surface as much as he could to avoid the warm water that threatened to envelop his body.

His eyes flickered to the door where Onew and Minho were standing, both grinning from ear to ear as if they had accomplished something grand with forcing him into the fiery hot confines of the tub. With eyes showing disgust and pure hatred, the feline splashed around a little with both hands, acting quite like a toddler.

It was the day after he had been returned home - the morning, actually, with the sun barely being up in the cloudy sky still - and his cruel punishment to his little escapade had been this. A bath.

Now normally, Kibum would have been okay with water touching his fur - more or less, at least. He was already used to the icy liquid soaking his coat, many times had he taken a nap in the open when a storm was brewing. However, he was bare now without the gentle blanket of pale white fur covering his skin. He felt odd, even and certainly not because the lack of clothing wrapped around his pale body.

No, this was a very different, alien feeling to him. Somehow the fact that both his owners were there fuelled the fury in his veins even more. He didn't want them to look at him, not now!

With an exaggerated sigh he leant ahead, ear flickering back as his chest touched the soothingly warm water. Maybe it wasn't that bad, actually.

But still, the two humans were staring at him, amusement ever so present in their features. Lacking the phrase to tell them to leave, Kibum just hissed at them lightly with his ears pressed against his pale, messy hair.

"Just wash up and you can get out soon." Minho muttered, unshielded annoyance lacing every word. Min was still in a deep, peaceful slumber, curled up on his bed. For some reason, he was much more interested in bathing the smaller feline than Key.

Key let out another sigh but his attention was suddenly caught: a bubble was floating atop the water, getting closer and closer to him.
