The World Ends With You; Josh/Neku; Diamonds;

Really, the bastard had 'no' right to be smirking like that, his finger twirling his, slightly damp from sweat, blond hair around his delicate, feminine fingers that Neku felt neither delicate nor feminine when used in proper ways.

"I'm not wearing that," he snarled, looking at the ring-box before him in outrage and very-near snarling at his romatically-challenged asshole of a boyfriend.

"I could make you, dear," Josh stated, drawing out the term of a affection and reaching forward, catching his wrist in those too-strong fingers and attaching the perfectly fitted, obscenely expensive, and completely girlish ring around his finger.

"I said no!" Neku barked in outrage.

"Mmm… but that's not what you said last night, Neku-darling. I believe your response was more like: 'Yes, yes, oh, God yes… harder, faster… fuck me, Josh,'" the smirking boy stated, turning over and pressing their lips together like everything was hunky-dory… which it wasn't.

Neku attempted to bite the demi-god's bottom lip roughly, but the speedy little blond jerked up and away with an all-too-girlie giggle.

"Now, now, Neku, that's no way to treat your fiancé," Josh scolded.

"I didn't say 'yes'!" Neku harped, reaching over and attempting to get the ring off, groaning when he realized that it was all but super-glued to his finger.

"Oh, but you did, repeatedly and in a crescendo," Josh cackled to himself as the boy removed himself from the bed that they'd been occupying for at least a couple of hours.

Neku attempted to object, but found himself choking on his own tongue at the sight of the other boy naked and moving around with such fluid grace. Fuck that bastard, all he had to do was take off his shirt and Neku suddenly forgot everything in his head.

"See something you like, Neku-dear?" Josh asked as he leaned casually against his dresser.

Neku glared and attempted to say something, but promptly choked again when the ring on his finger felt astonishingly warm all of a sudden.

"You know, I really do love when you watch me," Josh sighed, suddenly fully clothed and looking freshly-showered, all in the time it took Neku to blink. Asshole.

"It's not like you don't put on a show every time I see you, and I still want this ring off, by the way. I'm 'not' a girl," Neku bitched.

"Of course I put on a show, Neku-dear. Why wouldn't I for the only living person on the planet who can see me?" Josh stated, hiding his lips behind his hand as he giggled again, before disappearing entirely.

Neku sat, slightly despondent, on his bed for a few minutes. His chest felt uncomfortable, the ring on his finger was still warm and he couldn't believe that the last few hours had happened.

"Do I really sound like that when we're…?" Neku stated, feeling the blush rise on his cheeks in memory and hiding his face beneath a pillow.

When he was able to walk, he'd see about getting this stupid ring off. In the mean time, he would attempt to get some sleep and not die of mortification.

Bastard.
