Hello everyone! =D
I wrote this little fic for a meme over at LJ - the idea came from the crack pairing prompt: Ritsu/elevator doors - I hope it turned out at least a little funny =P
Disclaimer: I own nothing but what I wrote.

Steely Kiss?
Ritsu hastily walked into Marukawa through the sliding front doors.
As he passed the reception desk without sparing a look at the girl standing behind the desk, he glanced back to check if Takano-san had caught up with him - he really didn't want to walk up the office with that guy in toe anymore, so he'd been trying to outrun his boss every morning for the past week - and catching a glimpse of the dark haired man coming through the front doors as well, Ritsu picked up the pace to reach the elevators as quickly as he could without taking his eyes off Takano-san.
Knowing by instinct he was very close to the elevators, Ritsu mentally cheered, "A-ha! Take that Takano-san!" he thought as he finally turned to look back in front of himself and—
SDENG!
—he slammed right into the elevator's metal doors face first. Hard.
He didn't dare move, hearing Takano-san's footsteps reach and stop beside him. The man didn't say anything for a few seconds, as he pressed the button to call the elevator next to Ritsu's, then, "My, Onodera... what's with the passionate kiss, uh? You only saw this guy over here yesterday, there's no reason to get all hot and bothered this early..." he commented plainly, but the underlaying mocking and the snort weren't missed by Ritsu, "This is the third time this week, get a room." he finished as he stepped into the free elevator.
Ritsu didn't have the courage to move from where he was for more than ten minutes, he couldn't face his boss. He couldn't!
As a matter of fact, Takano-san continued to throw in suggestive comments about 'Ritsu's new special someone' all day and the flush of embarrassment never left the editor's face all through it.
That was one hell of a work-day.
