"Not if I Can Help It!"

Kyou Kara Maoh! Fan Fiction

Genre: Humor/Drama

Slightly AU, but what the heck. it's a damn fanfiction anyway.

Spawned by severe boredom on a summer vacation.

--

A calm, pleasant afternoon. In which we have our dear Yuri brushing up on his Demon Tribe History and Language, by casually reading and taking down notes inside his private study. With a little help from Murata, AKA The Great Wise Man, of course.

Perfect.

Calm.

Serene.

"Hahaha, but you know man, disappearing for periods at a time like this...she's bound to take notice, you know."

"Oh, Murata...haha..."

"She can't know though, ne. At least, not yet. Not until everything in The Great Demon Kindom's all fixed up."

"Yeah, I know. She can't get involved. Heh...I wonder how will she react if she finds out..."

"I dunno Shibuya, she's your girlfriend..."

"Hey, that's not entirely true you kno--!!"

But not until...

SLAM!

"YURI!!"

Lo and behold, a quite flustered, blond haired beauty with glaring green eyes. Absolutely heavenly...except if you knew that that particular angel will raise hell in just a few seconds.

"YURI YOU BASTARD! WHAT IS THIS WITH YOU HAVING A 'GIRLFRIEND'??"

"Uh oh...better stay out of this..." and so, The Great Wise man, being as great and wise as he is, senses the impending danger and silently backs away, slipping outside unnoticed.

"MURATA! Get back here!" Apparently not that unnoticed. The young Maoh held his friend in place with an accusing "you-stupid-idiot-it's-your-fault-you-just-had-to-say-that-didn't-you" glare.

"YOU FACE ME, YOU IDIOTIC INFIDEL!"

Beautiful Wolfram grabs him, our beloved Demon King, by the lapels of his royal garment, shaking him senseless, coupled with blaring shouts of accusations. Ah, yes. Young love.

"Get off me, Wolfram! You're going to kill me!" Yuri manages to brush him off, albeit forcefully, and ends up landing with a solid THUD ass-down on the floor.

"Well that was what I was intending to do!" The young blond said, looming over him ominously. "In case you have forgotten, which would be quite amazing since I batter it into your adulterous mind everytime that I can, I am your fiance, whether you like it or not! And I, being the high-ranking noble that I am, will not settle for these such infidelities!"

Our darling was supposed to go and see how their great king, and his beloved fiance, was doing when he heard, almost our of earshot, the despicable word that is "girlfriend."Of course, our beautiful Wolfram is no idiot. Despite the usual connotations with blondes being dumb and ditzy, he is rather intelligent and exudes a refined elegance. He knows well enough that these so-called "girlfriends" as humans on the other world would like to call their female lovers, would mean that Yuri is dissatisfied with their relationship and that he is in danger of being "replaced."

His pride could only take so much.

Being cheated on is one thing...but actually being REPLACED??

Oh no siree, bob. He isn't taking that shit. No way, no how.

"Who is this "GIRLFRIEND" of yours that His Emminence was talking about?"

He places a hand angrily on his hip, the way that angry housewives do when their husbands come home late and reeking of alcohol from "work."

Yuri stands up slowly, with the help of Murata. Rubbing his bottom, he turns to face the angry nobleman.

"Can we stop with the shouting, Wolfram?" He said. "Seriously, we can talk without having to raise our voices and act so violent."

"Well, it's your fault!"

"C'mon guys," Murata chuckles uneasily, "let's be civil."

Yuri gives a big sigh before returning the blonde young man's steady glare.

"Her name is Yamada Riingo. She's a girl from our school."

"Riingo?" he shruggs, "What an ugly name!"

"Shut up." Yuri growled, surprising his pretty-faced companion,"You don't even know her...and she's not my girlfriend. You were eavesdropping on us, I can't believe you missed out on that part."

"Yeah, Wolfram. I was just teasing Yuri here you know...ahaha..."

Murata continues his painfully awkward laughter just to mask the uneasy atmosphere. Wolfram grunts, still not believing their words. Men, it pays not to trust their tirades so much. He should know...since he is one after all.
