Shuichi came home exhausted. All the day long, he had been the target of underhand pranks from almost every person he had crossed. Hiro, Fujisaki and Sakano, K - even if it was difficult to tell whether "that" was actually just some kind of practical joke -, a guy in the elevator, the lady from the store, those kids by the subway entrance… Shuichi sighed, realizing he just had to look like the perfect idiot yearning to be mocked. The paper fish he felt strung on his back while removing his coat surely did not prove him wrong.
In a weary voice, he warned Yuki that he had returned and sank into the sofa. Unexpectedly, he heard the grinding of his lover's desk chair then saw him heading silently in his direction. He sat up straight but stayed speechless when the writer gently stroked his blushing cheek before laying down a soft kiss on his lips.
"Yuki?" He asked unbelievingly as the writer was already getting back to his office. After a few seconds, the tall blond man turned to face him again and responded naturally, "Today is the 1st of April."
The tiredness of this endless day flowed back on the singer's face. "You meant it… as a prank."
Yuki smiled smartly. "No. As a present." He took a small pause to glance at his companion's expression then stated while returning casually to his laptop, "It is Fools' Day, right? Then, you ought to get a gift."
Shuichi remained puzzled. Swiftly, the sweet and warm feeling of his lover's lips rushed back to his mind and lit his face up. Who cares being called a fool when it comes with a kiss...?
