Trying to make you Smile

Pairing: Haruki x Shido

Rating: One-shot fluff! Rated G.

Notes: I find it such a mere pity at the lack of Haruki + Shido (or vise versa) fics. Seriously. I haven't even read ONE. Maybe its also because the fandom isn't that big yet, since GB did reach Europe and America recently. Or maybe its also cuz people are too busy with prettyboy Kazuki, kawaii Ginji, sexyass Ban and others -.

I love both Shido and Emishi, and immediantly, when I saw their 'friendship', I thought their relationship would be an inspiration into writing. Especially since Emishi is one hell of a fool (that could lighten up Shiddy a bit), and well Shido, being the cold reserved person he is.

If there is a Shido/Emishi fic somewhere out there, it was probably deh same idea as this, anyway. - Oh no, I'm not that creative…


"And…this! Does this make you laugh?"

For the 'we-don't-know' how many-th time, Emishi Haruki struggled on trying to make Fuyuki Shido laugh. His long-life mission, ever since their first encounter.

Lately, Emishi had been finding it harder by the minute to make Shido at least smile. For all the jokes he was saying, the acts he was acting, the talks he was trying to talk, all of his efforts backfired. Not even close to satisfactory. Shido's expression still remained the same, as dead as a doorknob. Excluding the constant 'twitch' of his eyebrow, however. This was a sign of Shido's growing annoyance...

...And how Emishi didn't notice Shido's patience, was beyond question.

"…Alright then! And this!"

For ashort second, Emishi turned around to prepare whatever ugly face he was to reveal later that minute. Shido took this moment of silence to try and calm his tensions. But unfortunate for him, the peace wasn't long enough. Emishi had turned around with a supposedly scary 'boo', only to show another grimace, that Shido was sure of already seeing, sometime during the past several hours.

"Grr…getting harder by the minute, iron man." commented Emishi. "Fine, so what about this?"

Shido didn't recall seeing Emishi move to his side, but what he did notice was the faint brush of Emishi's lips on his cheek. Emishi kissed him. This unexpected action no doubt morphed Shido's expression into something more 'dumbfounded'. So, when Emishi moved his head in front of Shido's to see what reaction his take had caused, he gave a triumphal squeak, proud to see he had at least managed to change something of Shido.

Shido himself, was startled. A teensy tint of pink had flushed his cheeks, not that Emishi could have noticed anyway, since he was too busy dancing of joy.

And Shido did something else, as well, that it was unfortunate for Emishi having not seen it.

He smiled.


There-Cheers- I had a lot of fun doing that, even though it was incredibly short.
