One of my favorite headcanons is that Sebastian secretly is a Japanophile and can speak Japanese. So When Joseph was introduced as his new partner he is kind of shy. He's scared that Joseph will find out his hobbies, he collect historical pieces from Japan and enjoys Seinen. Seinen is a type of anime that is marketed towards mature men and young adults. That genre is also Joseph's favorite and Joseph is also an otaku but he is very quiet about it as well. But what happens when Joseph figures out Joseph's obsessive hobby?
Sebastian was sitting in the chief's office waiting on his new partner to be introduced to him. Sebastian was slightly nervous. His previous partner had retired. Sebastian had not been working here for more than three years so he was still learning the ropes as well. The chief cleared his throat,''Costellanos, are you listening?''
Sebastian snapped out of his thoughts and looked up to his superior,''Yes Sir.''
The Chief shook his head and disapproval,''I said this is your new partner. His name is Joseph Oda.'' Sebastian jumped up from his seat in front of the chief's desk to stand in front of his new partner.
Sebastian looked at Joseph's youthful face. The man was beautiful. Very beautiful. He had soft features that Sebastian couldn't help but stare at. Joseph looked uncomfortable and looked down shyly, with those puppy dog eyes...Joseph cleared his throat causing Sebastian to catch himself. How long has he been just staring at this man!? He felt embarrassed, the kid was probably freaked out now.
''Uh, Nice to meet you Oda.'' Sebastian says simply and held out his hand for the other one to shake.
Joseph smiled at him and shook his hand. Was he always this quiet? The chief was giving them strange looks,''So now that that is out of the way...What ever that was. I have assigned you to a case.''
The two men went to sit in front of their superior's desk. The chief showed them the various files and after discussing what they were to do the two were dismissed to work out the case.
Sebastian went to his office and reviewed the files. He stopped when he realized that Joseph was leaning over him. Sebastian turned his neck to him,''Uh, what are you doing?''
''Taking notes.'' The man simply said.
''Do you have to lean over me?'' Sebastian complained.
''Sorry.'' Joseph says getting out of Sebastian's personal space.
Joseph sat in the nearest chair and looked like a scolded puppy. Sebastian felt his cheeks burn and the beginnings of arousal start to swirl below. What the fuck was wrong with him!? He felt so ashamed of himself he couldn't even look at the young man anymore. Sebastian knew he was bisexual years ago. He knew ever since he was 14. But he was not out, especially not at work. It was his own personal business.
He was snatched from his thoughts when he heard Joseph say,''Umm...Excuse me but you have been staring at the papers blankly from the past five minutes... Is this how you normally solve cases?'' The beautiful man tilted his neck ever so gently.
If Sebastian was in some Anime he would blush while getting a nose bleed right at that very moment. God damn it.
''Uh no. I guess I've got to get used to you Oda.'' Sebastian said looking back down at the files and scanning the address of one of the suspects,''This suspect. We should question him first.'' He gets up with the person's files covering his slight bulge.
Joseph stands up to oblivious to Sebastian's arousal. Sebastian thought,'Is the boy a virgin?' The two detectives walked out to the police car in the parking lot. Since Joseph was in front of him he looked down at Joseph's ass biting his lip hungrily,'Damn it I really need to get laid.'
Joseph said,''Is there anything you want me to help out with?''
Sebastian tore his eyes from Joseph's ass at that moment,''Um just take notes.''
Joseph nods and stops. Sebastian blinks, why did he stop?
Joesph looks at him expectantly,''Um. I'm new here I don't know your assigned car Castellanos.''
''Oh yeah that!'' Sebastian says a little too loudly and goes to the parking lot with Joseph following closely behind.
Sebastian drove them in a very awkward silence. His partner must be very shy. Sebastian spoke up and says,''So...where are you from?''
''Canada.'' Joseph answers softly.
''Hm cool. Never been there before.'' Sebastian answers.
''Yeah. Gets very cold.'' Joseph says awkwardly.
''Have any friends in Krimson City?'' Sebastian asked trying to make conversation.
''No. I mostly stay to myself.'' Joseph answers.
Sebastian nods,''Well I can make you some friends. Myra is very nice, you'll love her. She working on another case right now, but you'll get to meet her whenever she's back at the station. Plus she's really hot.''
Joseph blushes and looks away,''I'm already involved with someone. Well kind of. I don't know if our relationship will last the long distance.''
'DAMN IT!' Sebastian curses mentally,'OF COARSE A SEXY GUY LIKE THIS IS TAKEN!'
Sebastian says calmly,''Yeah long distance is a bitch.''
Joseph asks,''So what about you?''
''What do you mean?'' Sebastian asks turning a corner.
''Are you dating anyone?'' Joseph asks without much emotion.
''Nah. Me and Myra dated on and off but I guess I'm just single.'' He shrugged. Myra was very sweet and beautiful but every time they tried to make their relationship work they ended up arguing or just not wanting to be together.
Joseph nods,''I might be soon. I think that my partner has been cheating on me. We've been going through a rough patch even before I left Canada.''
Sebastian was surprised by how open Joseph was becoming to him. He was talking a lot more now. He could not even understand how anyone could cheat on Joseph. What the hell was wrong with Joseph's girlfriend? Or Boyfriend if Joseph swung that way too. Sebastian could never imagine himself cheating on him. Never.
Sebastian was snapped from his thoughts when Joseph shook him and softly said,''Green light.''
Sebastian started driving again. He could feel Joseph's eyes on him,''Do you space out often?''
Sebastian shook his head,''Just today.''
Joseph looks down almost in shame,''I know that I am the cause. I am so sorry for the stress I may cause.'' Joseph practically bows in the fucking passengers seat. Sebastian cracks up and did not miss the twitch in Joseph's brow. Sebastian said,''Calm down! It's not that serious!'' Between fits on laughter.
Joseph sits back pouting and Seb could not help but think that this man was just so beautiful.
Hours later Sebastian and Joseph come back to the office. Myra had already left and there were a few officers and detectives still in the office. Sebastian went straight to his desk and packed up to leave. Joseph did the same but then stood there after a while.
Sebastian looked up,''What's the problem?''
Joseph says,''I was just wondering which one is my desk?''
Sebastian says,''The only other one in here. You are assigned to me so you stick with me kay?''
Joseph blushed,''Oh. When I worked in Canada we all had separate spaces...'' He pushed his glasses further up his nose and looked at Sebastian expectantly.
''What?'' The taller man asked the Canadian.
''Oh so the day is over? I-I am not used to this at all. Sorry.'' Joseph scrambled for his stuff blushing and he left to his car. Sebastian smiled after him. So adorable.
