In order to get myself back into writing, I came up with The 3am Challenge challenge over on tumblr. It's a daily writing challenge that takes randomly selected prompts from Brian Kiteley's The 3AM Epiphany, which are then set to whatever song shows up on my mp3 player first in order to set the tone for the scene. All The filled prompts span a bunch of my favorite fandoms, so in order to keep them all together I've made them all into the 3am Series. They're all in my profile, but if you want a better system of organization for the series as a whole, I highly recommend checking them out over on my Ao3 account~
(Full descriptions of the actual book prompts are listed on my tumblr under the tag, '3am-challenge.')

(continued in chapter 3)
Gaku and Yuuma were close.
In fact, the only time Kaito hadn't seen his best friends glued together was when he and Gakupo were in class. Even then, Yuuma was usually waiting outside the lecture hall – which was how he and Kaito had met.
The pair even shared a house, which, in hindsight, was a massive clue, but Kaito had never been any good at picking up on things that should have been obvious. Besides, he rationalized; 95% of his time was spent with them, too. He'd even crashed on their couch the night before, after they had all stayed up late studying.
He'd wondered at the time why Yuuma had apparently passed out in Gaku's room, but now, cowering in the bedroom closet, he was pretty sure he knew the reason.
"Fuck! Yuuma…"
Kaito's breath caught at Gaku's gasp of pleasure, feeling the sound go straight to his groin. He clamped a hand over his mouth to stifle himself – the other moving to press against the erection forming between his legs.
It was a well-kept secret that Kaito harbored a deep attraction for his friends. Yuuma for his lithe body and lean muscles that just barely peeked though his tight shirts. Gaku for his electric-blue eyes and velvety-rich voice that practically dripped seduction.
The same voice currently moaning Yuuma's name.
Kaito bit down on his fingers. This wasn't even remotely fair. It was bad enough to crush on not one, but both of his closest friends, only to find out in the worst way possible that they were already dating each other. Despair mixed with embarrasment in his gut and joined the sick twist of guilty desire his accidental voyeurism was igniting. He listened as Yuuma growled possessively, eliciting from Gakupo the most sinfully beautiful noise Kaito had ever heard.
His erection throbbed painfully in response and he whimpered against his hand – realizing belatedly just how loud he'd been when everything suddenly went deathly quiet.
"…The hell?"
Terror gripped him. He could only wait, heart pounding, as the closet door swung wide open and a very confused, very naked Yuuma stared in at him.
"…Kaito?"
The dam burst. "I'M SORRY!" Kaito wailed, face burning. "I forgot my scarf this morning but you weren't home yet so I used the spare key to let myself in! Except I couldn't find my scarf so I went looking for it and then you came back and I panicked!"
An amused look passed between his friends as the hysterical babbling continued, though Kaito remained completely oblivious. "I am so, so sorry! I didn't mean to—"
"Wanna join?"
That stopped him. "I… what?"
Gakupo chuckled from over on the bed – looking utterly disheveled and oh-so appealing."I said: do you want to join?"
Kaito just gaped at them both, broken brain unable to comprehend. "I… I-I…"
"For fuck's sake…" Dropping to his knees with a huff, Yuuma slid a warm hand over the bulge in Kaito's pants. "You. Bed." He squeezed gently. "Now."
Not... reeeeally as happy with this one as I would like to be. I had so much more humor written in, and a bit more situation building that would have made Yuuma and Gaku seem a little less pushy - but alas! I had a shorter word limit on this one and I had to chop nearly half of the drabble away to make it fit.
