NEVER AGAIN.

He was never going to let those kids get a hold of alcohol again. The results were disastrous and he had almost lost a lib wrestling them to bed.

And it was all because of that idiot mage.

"Oh, it'll be fun! Let's all drink! Lalala!" said Kurogane, imitating the magician.

Now, where had said idiot gone off to? The ninja looked around for the tall blond, but to no avail. He was about to give up completely when he heard a sinister and evil "nyah!" from behind him.

Kurogane let out a loud "GAH!" as Fai D. Flowright bowled into him. "Nyah-ha-ha! I got you, Kuro-woofwoof!" The blond poked the ninja's forehead and giggled insanely. The dark-haired man blushed furiously because Fai had landed on hi chest when he had jumped. The mage giggled even more when he saw the look on Kurogane's face. "What's the matter, Kuro-tan?" The ninja turned a darker shade of red as the magician stretched out on top of him and flung his arms around the dark-haired man's neck.

"F-Fai! Wh-what the hell do you think you're doing?!"

"You're warm, Kurogane..."

Kurogane blushed even more. Fai never called him by his actual name!

Then the blond kissed him.

The ninja stiffened when their lips met, but was surprised to find out that he liked the sensation.

"You know, Kurogane, I'm not drunk."

Kurogane looked up into the mage's gorgeous blue eyes and knew he was right. The man was completely sober.

"Know what, Kurogane?"

"Hn?"

"I love you." Fai kissed him again, but this time the kiss was passionate and Kurogane kissed him back, realizing that he loved the blond man. The ninja pushed the magician off of him and sat up, scratching his head and grumbling about idiot mages. Fai laughed and sat himself down on Kurogane's lap, like a king sitting on his throne. The ninja mumbled something but the blond couldn't hear him. "Whaddya say, Kurogane?"

The dark-haired man sighed and looked down at the ground. "I love yo8u, too." Their eyes met and Fai chuckled.

"I know, Kurogane, I know."
