[A/N: This is the first. Constructive Criticism would help..I guess.]

Pairing(s): Gintoki x Sougo [Friendship?]

Okita Sougo has never smiled in a long time, wholeheartedly, no one could make him.

It was silent. Gintoki lazed on the couch like he always does, propping his head up with one of his arms to give it support. While the other hand's small finger went in and out of his nose turning the pages to Shounen Jump's Gintaman. He never really liked the manga, but he read it anyway, because he felt some sort of connection to it, he could not explain it. - Almost done with the chapter, he hears Tap Tap on the window behind his desk. "Shinpachi? Kagura?" The silver-haired man looked confused. Who? Gintoki made it look like it took effort to sit up as he stumbled to his feet. Gintoki came to the conclusion that it was probably Otose or Catherine, Tama would never be that gentle. He made sure to slide the curtains open very carefully with his wooden sword. Nothing moved. He was at a loss for words while he saw the First Division Captain of the Shinsengumi crouched up like Spider-Man on the other side of his window.

Gintoki gave a dead-fish stare. What? "Ah, Danna." Sougo pulled open the window from the other side, "You should close your windows properly." Said the teenager.

Gintoki didn't have time for this, it was almost time for him to do one of his odd-jobs. "Oi. Oi. Could you knock a little more normally? This is like what some evil organization from an anime would do."

"Ah. Sorry, Danna, but you see, I'm looking for my bazooka, could you help?" The Teenager said blandly.

"I have a job to do here, don't go bothering me with this crap. All men have a bazookas in their hearts, so use that, okay?"

"Please don't be that way, Danna." -

Somehow, it ended up with Sougo following Gintoki to help finish his job as payment for helping find the bazooka that was stashed away by Kagura. Gintoki took the lead, telling Sougo to just shut up and follow. Gintoki was holding a rather large bag while he walked to their unknown destination. Gintoki made an abrupt stop when he spotted Shinpachi. "Oiiii! Patsuannn!" the Samurai called over to the boy wearing round glasses. "Ah, Gin-sa-" ! Shinpachi was surprised to see Okita Sougo there. Just what is Gin-san thinking! "Wh..Why is Okita-san here!"

"A young person's life is unpredictable, in this case, it's yours."

Yagyuu Kyuubei was standing in front of a surprisingly large house while she heard clops from afar. Through a forest near the house, something appeared. There, Makoto-chan was. Sougo was riding on Mako-chan dressed up as a prince. "Aah, I'm done for.. I'm completely done for, Oi. I thought it was a wild boar.. but I ended up abducting a prince.." Gintoki winked at Toujou Ayumu, standing by Kyuubei's side.

In front of Sougo and Mako-chan, Kyuubei's cheeks were like an apple's thick shade of red, Gintoki knew this would happen, no one could resist a handsome prin- In the middle of his thoughts, Sougo was kicked off of Makoto-chan's back and Kyuubei boarded instead. Huh? "So wonderful.." said Kyuubei as she petted Mako-chan's [Gintoki's] hair. Huh? No way. No girl would ever pass up the chance to be with a prince. Of course, when girls said something a little too cute, no boy would ever think about getting together with her... Maybe she's just smart?

Next thing Mako-chan knew, Sougo jumped up and tackled Kyuubei. Ayumu worried that Kyuubei would get injured and fired Gintoki and the rest. Shinpachi had already gone home while Gintoki confronted Sougo. "Oi! Didn't you say you were going to help!" Gintoki was pissed. This was one of the easiest jobs that have ever come his way. All ruined by Okita-kun.

"Danna, you see, if a woman hits you, you shouldn't act like a little bitch and take it, if you strike back, that's how they learn who's dominating who." Sougo stated like it was a fact, his voice as bland as ever.

"I don't give a damn about that! Go back and make up an excuse like - "AHH~! A SPIDER!" And beg to be let in and get on their good side! Apologize and I still might get paid!"

Suddenly, a spider appeared in front of Gintoki's face. Gintoki paled. "SPIDER!" Gintoki squeaked in an obnoxiously high voice and threw his arms on different sides of Sougo's waist and docking his head in Sougo's chest. To Gintoki's realization, he let out a fearful chuckle. Sougo snorted and grabbed the spider by the web and ran towards Gintoki with it. Gintoki couldn't help but run away while Sougo chased after him.

But while running after Gintoki, his expression was different, yes, it seemed like he was actually enjoying himself. His cheeks drained with red, a very smiley expression while he was laughing. Yes, Sougo was actually enjoying himself and smiling. And before he knew it, the spider was long gone.

[A/N: Gintaman is a parody of Gintama created for the manga[?] and anime. Makoto-chan is Shinpachi and Gintoki dressed as a centaur, Shinpachi is the back side and Gintoki is the front with his hair combed down and a beard with a defeated look on his face that says - I'm done for. And from Gintama Episode 177, Gintoki yelled "SPIDER" when it crawled on his hands and dove into Tsukuyo's chest.]
