Chapter 1

It was a brightˌ sunny day in Shinguku. The kind of day to enjoy and run errands. Which everyone seemed to agree on for there were numerous people walking to and fro down the street. Shopping and gathering to make merry with friends. A niceˌ quiet day to relax.

Well it would be anyways if not for the very heated argument that was coming from the direction of the little café known as the Honky Tonk. People crossed the street to avoid the placeˌ not wanting to be caught up in whatever was going on. The owner of the caféˌ Paulˌ became very disheartened by this factˌ his paying customers weren't there to buy anythingˌ and turned once again to glare at the source of the commotion. The words flying through the air went along the lines of:

"MONKEY BOY!"

"SNAKE BASTARD!"

"IDIOT!"

"ASSHOLE!"

Paul sighed for the umpteenth time that day. Those two doofuses will never quit. The doofuses he was referring too were two men of about the same height. They both had dark colored hair that was spikey and wild. One man was slightly shorter than the other and wore roundˌ purple sunglasses that kept falling down his nose. The other wore a white bandana around his headˌ keeping his hair out of his eyes.

The sunglass wearer was more commonly known as Ban Midouˌ the Jagan Man; while the bandana wearer was called Shido Fuyukiˌ the Beast Master. Both extremely strong men in their own rights and very skilled fighters. They could defeat anyone with little to no effortˌ but when it comes to each other it seems they revert back to little kids in grade school.

"Would you two just quit it already? You're repelling customers." Paul was getting a little irritated at this point. He was losing the chance to make money after all.

"NO WAY! NOT UNTIL MONKEY BOY OVER HERE ADMITS I'M RIGHT!"

"AS IF!"

They've been fighting like this since early that morning when Ban came into the café looking for Ginji. Ban had come down from the apartment that he and Ginji sharedˌ it was located above the Honky Tonk and Paul was nice enough to let them stay there. It was more that Natsumiˌ the teenage girl that works part-time at the Honky Tonkˌ begged and pleaded at Paul to see the goodness in his heart to let the boys stay above the caféˌ otherwise they would be living on the streets. So of course he couldn't say noˌ but he adds rent to their already large tab that looks like it never will be paid anyways.

Paul liked having Natsumi aroundˌ she was a big help around the café and made him have less work to do. Natsumi herself was off todayˌ thoughˌ so she didn't have to deal with all the arguing and yelling. Lucky girl.

Ginji had left early that morning and Shido had arrived at the same timeˌ them passing each other at the door. They had a quick conversation before Ginji jogged down the street. All normal like. Paul didn't even know why Shido was even thereˌ he just sat down at the counter and ordered some tea. At least the beast master knew how to pay.

So when Ban came down the stairs expecting to find Ginji sitting at the counterˌ he instead found the beast master. They stared at each other for a good 2 minutes before the yelling started. They've been at it for almost six hours straight and Paul can't even remember why they started yelling at each other to begin with.

It seems they don't even remember anymore either and they were only arguing to argue. All the yelling was giving Paul a headache and he was about to smack the both of them upside the headˌ when he heard the bell above the door jingle. He turned his head and saw that Ginji had finally returned and with a dark figure in toe. The blonde Lighting Emperor had none other than Dr. Jackalˌ or Akabane to his acquaintancesˌ following him. It was a little strange to say the leastˌ unless you knew what Paul knew. He didn't even bat an eye at the pair.

"Ban? Shido? What's going on Paul?" Ginji had his head tilted to the sideˌ sporting a look of confusion.

"It appearsˌ Ginji-kunˌ that your two friends are yelling at each other." Akabane stated before Paul could speak.

"Well I can see that Akabane-sanˌ but why are thy fighting?" The Jackal just raised an eyebrow before they both turned at Paul's voice.

"Honestly Ginjiˌ I have no idea why they decided to fight for six hours straight and frankly I don't care what the reason for it is anymore. Ban walked down the stairsˌ saw Shido sitting hereˌ and they started yelling at each other." Paul said as he rubbed his aching head. "All I know is that if they don't stop soonˌ I'm going to kill the both of them."

By thenˌ the two spike-heads moved back to calling each other names. The words "ASSHOLE!" and "BASTARD!" being thrown aroundˌ with a few other curse words here and there. Paul was just thanking his lucky stars the two bastards hadn't started throwing punches yetˌ he didn't think his poor café could handle such a battle.

"Come on you twoˌ let's stop the yelling and calm downˌ huh?" Ginji had his hands upˌ palms outˌ trying to placate his friends.

They kept at itˌ neither Ban nor Shido even noticing that Ginji had returned. They seemed to be just getting worseˌ Shido now growling at Ban occasionally.

Ginji was sort of at a lossˌ smiling stupidly as he stared at themˌ not knowing what to do. He didn't want to get in the middle of it if they were on the verge of fist fighting. He was surprised it hadn't gotten to that point yet. He was thankful he didn't have to do anything since Akabane stepped around him ready to do something himself.

With a flick of his wristˌ Akabane sent two scalpels flying at Ban and Shido. Neither of the sharp medical instruments actually hit the menˌ but instead zoomed past their facesˌ catching their attention. As oneˌ the two turned towards the door where Ginji and Akabane were still standing.

"If the two of you are quit doneˌ Ginji-kun and I would like to have lunch." Akabane said pulling the blonde to one of the booths to sit down. It only took Ban 10 seconds before he recovered from his shocked daze. Ban focused in on Ginji and the Jackal with a very suspicious look on his face. Shido just kept growling lightly at Ban from where he was satˌ a little pissed at the Jackal for interrupting them.

"What do you mean 'lunch' and what's with the 'Ginji-kun' stuff?"

"Lunch is the afternoon mealˌ Ban-sanˌ and is much more enjoyable when shared with a friend."

"Don't talk at me like I'm five! I know what lunch meansˌ you stupid Jackal!"

Greatˌ more yelling…Paul was going to kill them for giving him this headache.

"To answer your other questionˌ I call him Ginji-kun because he's my Ginji-kun."

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR 'GINJI-KUN'?! HE'S NOT YOURS!"

"Ban please calm down." Ginji had a small blush painting his cheeks.

"Don't tell me to calm down Ginji! WHAT DOES HE MEAN?!" Ban was really pissed off now.

"~Sigh~ and to think I thought you were smarter than thatˌ Ban." Akabane was giving Ban a very condescending look and it was pissing Ban off even more. He even started growling at Jackal. Of course it wasn't as impressive as Shido's of courseˌ but still a growl.

"If I must spell it out for you…. Ginji-kun and I have been happily dating each other for three weeks." Akabane then reached up a hand and wrapped his arm around Ginji's shouldersˌ almost pulling the blonde onto his lap in the process. Which made Ginji blush even harder.

Ban's eyes went wide. Hell even Shido's eyes widened. The only one who didn't seem surprised was Paul who just opened the day's newspaper and began readingˌ he'd known about it since week one.

Ban was shocked beyond belief. He took a step or two back. "Uhhhh" was all he could get out before his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he promptly fainted.

Author's Note

Hey everyone! Yes I am not dead! Shocker I know. XD I've been having trouble getting internet access but I managed!

First I would like to say I have not given up on my other storyˌ A World Beyond Oursˌ I just haven't gotten back into the mindset to work on that one. Let me watch some Naruto episodes and then I can back to work on it. :D

For right nowˌ I'm in a Get Backers faze and decided to write this story. There aren't many fanfics that I've seen with a Shido/Ban main pairingˌ so I'm adding to the collection. I'm also in a Skyrim faze and have a sort of back story in progress (about 2 chapters) that I will begin posting as well.

Reviews are much appreciatedˌ but are not mandatory. I would also like to ask that you don't expect regular chapter uploadsˌ for I am currently in college and rarely have much free time. Though the next chapter is complete and just needs a good once over before posting. The third chapter is started as wellˌ so don't worry. :D

P.S.

The next chapter will be in Shido's point of view on what happened in chapter one and the third chapter will be in Ban's point of view on what happened in chapter one as well. They will both end with Ban fainting and then the fourth chapter will start with what happens right after.

Not all chapters will be one in normal point of view then the next two being about the same event in either Ban or Shido's POV; it's just that way in the beginning. All the rest will most likely be normal point of view with the occasional specific view thrown in here and there. Just to warn you guys. J

P.P.S

Ban will already have feelings for Shidoˌ but tries his best to hide them. Shido will discover his feelings after realizing Ban is his mate. I will find some way to make the whole 'mate' thing work so don't worry. It will work itself out.

Until next time!
