Happiness

"It's a little chilly today, so keep your jacket on, okay?" Yuuri buttoned up his fiancé's coat, making sure the faux fur at the collar was tucked in snugly tight. His fingers brushed lightly at the nape of the blond's neck, and immediately a pleasant warmth bloomed over the area.

"You don't have to coddle me, wimp." The words were meant to be scolding (he was a solider, for Shinou's sake- he didn't need his fiancé babying him), but it came out softly, as Yuuri finished bundling him up with a kiss to the corner of his mouth. Wolfram flushed, burrowing his face into the collar. The other merely smiled as he pulled on his own jeans jacket. Wordlessly he held out his hand, and after a moment Wolfram took it, his slim fingers lacing together with Yuuri's.

The sakura trees in bloom provided a beautiful backdrop for their walk as they strolled along the park's pathways. It was the slower but more scenic route to the restaurant they were to meet the others at for lunch. The two watched the blossoms swirl gracefully to the ground, completely serene and at peace.

"Oh, look. A crepe stand." Yuuri released his hold on Wolfram, trotting up to the little stand sitting next to the walkway. The blond inhaled deeply, enjoying the warm smell of bakery goods wafting from the cart, then curiously followed. Yuuri was ordering one, it seemed, a two-vanilla-ice-cream-scoops-with-chocolate-chips-on-top one. Wolfram's mouth watered (he loved vanilla ice cream- it was the first ice cream flavor he'd ever tried on Earth), but he fought the urge to ask his wimpy king for one too, and turned fondly exasperated eyes on him.

"You'll ruin your appetite for lunch."

"This one's for you, Wolf." Yuuri turned to him, an indulging smile on his face as he pressed the dessert into the princeling's hands.

"I'm going to ruin my appetite for lunch, then." But Wolfram was already digging the long plastic spoon into the crepe, a small hum of appreciation sounding from his throat at the familiar taste.

"I'll help you eat your lunch if you can't finish it," Yuuri smiled. The king reached for his fiancé's hand, turning to walk down the path again, but stopped when he felt gentle resistance. "Wolfram?"

The blond was gazing at the quaint little crepe stand, taking another bite of his dessert before answering. "Next time, you're sharing with me so I don't have to finish this huge thing by myself, wimp." He faced Yuuri, eyes shining. "Next time will be soon."

Yuuri paused before laughing softly, nodding in agreement. "Next time will be soon."

Fin.


Author's Notes:

My friend recently told me about Kyou Kara Maou, and after spending nearly a week watching all of the available episodes, I'm hooked now -laugh- YuuRam is my OTP for KKM now.

This collection, 100x100 Pixel Love, is named so because the inspiration for this and future one-shots was/will be from the icons I've collected on Photobucket -laugh- This particular one-shot was inspired by the icon you can find here:

http: (double forward slash) i46. photobucket. com /albums /f134 /KariOtogi /MiscIcons /YuuRamHappiness.gif

...minus the spaces and all that, of course. I think you can figure it out. I'll post the URL for each icon that inspired a chapter at the end, in the Author's Notes, so you can see it for yourself.

08/18/08 Edit: This icon belongs to chalp, not me -heart- She pointed this out nicely to me on the LJ community I just joined, Beyond the Endlessly Faraway Sky. I'm sorry for not thinking earlier to credit you, chalp! Apparently, the image used for the icon comes from one of the drama CDs, where Yuuri takes Wolfram to Harajuku, and on their sightseeing trip, Yuuri does buy Wolfram a crepe to eat, and apparently even offers to help him finish it if he can't! Gah! There's so much I need to learn about Kyou Kara Maou! I hope next time I don't make another 'imitation' fiction like this one was.

What? Kyou Kara Maou doesn't belong to me? Nooo, I never would've thought that...

Thanks for reading, and please review!
