I'm not really sure how or why I'm uploading this but here goes my stupid attempt at writing teasing. Feel free to share anything that could help me get better at writing things of this sort. Also, I think my grammar might be lacking, so it would be helpful if you could point out any nonsensical phrases that I may have misused.

Brace yourselves and I hope you have a nice read. ^^

Oh, a disclaimer is in order.

Necktie

It was early in the morning as Okamura Rin walked out of his and his brother's room and took on the corridor to the kitchen to make breakfast. He was already fully clothed in the academic uniform but stopped after a few steps, noticing that he had misplaced a button or two on his shirt. As he took care of fixing his appearance, his keen demonic hearing picked up a sort of displeased grumbling from the near occupied dormroom. Twitching a pointy ear in reaction to the sound, the boy turned an interested gaze at the slightly creaked doorway. Through the small space between the door and its frame he could see the back of a brown headed girl with the same uniform. She had her shirt collar up, struggling with a ribbon of the same colors like his necktie and was letting out disgruntled murmurs when she managed to tie a knot around her fingers for what seemed like the fifth time.

"What are you doing, Chiharu?" Rin arched an eyebrow and pushed the door fully open as he stared at her stupidly.

"Eh? Rin?" Chiharu turned her head to face the blue eyed boy with grass-green orbs and when she moved her long straight hair swished behind her back, she realized some strands were caught on the small knots she had accidentally made on the ribbon. "Ow, ow, ow!" She jumped and tugged at her brown locks to set them free.

As Rin watched her, he sweatdropped at her actions, sending her another of his dumb looks and repeated his question, "The heck are you trying to do? I know you just got your uniform but it doesn't usually take this much time to tie a stupid bow, does it?"

The girl was new at True Cross and, due to her lack of home and living expenses, was also put in the Okumura brothers' dorm, which was a rather run-down building, resembling a haunted place.

"Ah, no way, I don't want that huge fancy bow around my neck, it would look ridiculous! I'm not some Christmas present," Chiharu retorted knowingly as she managed to set her hairs free. She really wasn't a much of a girly girl, judging by the boy shorts she went out of her way to wear under her pink skirt because it was too short and fluttery for her liking. As she had once put it, it being pink was the most she could handle. "Neckties looks way cooler, don't you think!" The girl smiled cutely, a nice change to her tomboyish nature.

"Yeah and, as I can see, it seems like you know perfectly well exactly how to do one," was the sarcastic remark from the demonic boy, making the brown headed girl attempt a frown, only to look like she was pouting at him. But she seemed to loosen her strained expression and stare intently at the slightly taller boy, making him blush, a little nervousness overcoming him. "W-what?"

"Riiiin-kuuun~! Teach me how to tie one~! Please~!" Chiharu started begging Rin childishly as she walked towards him with the ends of the ribbon around her neck extended towards him. "Come on~! I know you're an expert at this thing! You're the only one who can teach me properly!" She smiled again when this seemed to win the boy over. Not that no one else in the vicinity knew how one should tie a necktie.

"It can't be helped then, since I'm the most capable around here!" The older Okumura, his chest bloated with confidence, grabbed the ends of the ribbon and started folding it in different ways. But it didn't seem to work and the boy became more and more flustered when no proper knot was being produced.

"What's wrong?"

Rin lifted his gaze up from the disheveled ribbon to Chiharu's big emerald eyes, her face several inches from his. He seemed to struggle with something for a bit but then he hurriedly turned his face away from hers and mumbled something as his pointy ears seemed to take on a reddish hue.

"Huh? I didn't hear you,"

"I said, I can't tie it from the front..." he muttered again, his head sinking slightly between his shoulders.

Chiharu blinked once, twice... "What do you mean?"

"Well, you'll have to t-turn around..." Rin stumbled on his words.

But Chiharu couldn't see why he was getting so embarrassed just because he couldn't tie some stupid knot when he was facing it, instead of when the tie was around his neck. It was no big deal. But why did she have to turn around? Was he embarrassed that he couldn't do it from the first try?

"Okay, if you can do it that way." The girl turned her back to him and waited. He probably didn't want her watching in case he accidentally stumbled with he knot again, Chiharu figured. Boys and their pride–

The girl froze and held her breath as heat rose to her face the same time she felt Rin's chest against her back, his chin hovering above her left shoulder. His right arm crept over her right side and the left he slid under hers. She saw his hands tug at the ribbon around her neck and start folding a neat knot. As his hands moved, she could feel almost his whole upper body shift against her back and she didn't dare move a muscle, completely stunned by her friend and dormmate's actions. Her face flushed, since she couldn't help but imagine how their position must look like viewed from the side. She just stared down at his surprisingly able fingers picking and pulling at her ribbon, working on the knot, and she tried to relax, to give in to the body warmth that she was accidentally receiving from the black haired boy. This predicament wasn't something that she most definitely disliked, despite that it was making her a bit uncomfortable and was turning her into a meek shy fuzzball in the boy's firm hold. His movements were measured and careful, as if he was making an effort not to cause her any further discomfort. The brunette could even feel his short locks of midnight hair tug at her long chocolate strands, tickling her a little and making her shy away her head downwards, letting her side brushed fringe locks cover her glossed over green eyes.

"A-all done."

Chiharu jumped a little and let out an "Ah!" when she felt Rin's breath reach the neck skin right behind and under her left ear. His face had briefly been right next to hers, their cheeks barely touching. The girl glanced at the perfectly folded loose necktie under her chin as the boy let go of the striped ribbon.

"T-thanks," the brunette mumbled meekly under her nose, her face still beat red. She noticed Rin withdrawing his slightly wider neck from her shoulder and the pressure and warmth of his chest from her smaller in comparison back disappeared after he had retreated his hands from the ribbon.

"N-no sweat..." Chiharu turned to see an equally as flustered and blushing Rin and she couldn't help but note that he seemed completely different from moments ago when he had first entered the room.

"You know, Rin, you could've just tied it around your own own neck, then take it off and hand it over," the girl suddenly made a statement that caused the demonic boy's blue eyes to widen with realization.

"H-h-h-how should I have thought of that?!" he blurted out, fangs showing, as he became even more frustrated and red in the face. "And why didn't you mention it! It's my first time tying it for someone else..." Then he turned his face the other way and started fuming, embarrassed that she made it seem as ifhe acted like a total perverted idiot.

"Well, you're not half bad at it, it's a perfect knot!" Chiharu made an attempt to cheer the boy up.

"Really?" He turned his face back to her, a hopeful childish glint playing in his eyes.

"Yeah! Absolutely!" The brown head smiled cutely again. "But could you do it again? I didn't quite remember what came after the second fold..." She tugged at her necktie, successfully untying it, and turned her back to him again. She briefly glanced back, her smile now turned into a sinister smirk.

"YOU SERIOUS?!" Rin's face quickly regained its previous red shade as he stared disbelievingly at the snickering long haired girl before him.

"Ah, excuse my intrusion." Yukio pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose sternly as he promptly exited the room after he had accidentally stumbled upon a certain scene of closure.

"..."

"YUKIO, NO! It's not what it looks like! I was tricked!" Rin exclaimed red in the face, extending a hand towards the shut door as he once again had his arms around Chiharu, showing her how to tie her necktie for the second time.

Slightly frowning, Chiharu tipped back her head to point out, "Hey, you're the one who tricked me the first time!"

"That wasn't a trick, I told you already!"

"Yeah, right, like you weren't intentionally pressing yourself against me..."

"W-what?! Well then why are you making me do this again if you hate it?!"

"I really didn't memorize all those folds! And..." the girl paused to look away, "I wouldn't exactly go so far as to say I hated it..."

"..."

"..."

Cue mad blushing.

"T-then... you don't hate it but you don't like it either...?"

"No, I... um... Well, you don't seem to mind it one bit! You haven't moved an inch from this position!"

True enough, Rin was standing still with his body against her back and his hands snuck past her, holding onto the ends of the ribbon around her neck.

"Eh?! Well, I, uh..." he struggled with his words, his chin still hovering over the girl's shoulder. He unintentionally breathed against her neck as he talked. "Hey?" Rin arched an eyebrow when he noticed that the girl was cringing slightly each time he let his words tickle her behind the ear. "Are you ticklish?" He breathed against her neck skin again and she let out a small yelp with her face flushed.

"N-no!" Chiharu squeaked and covered her mouth, startled by her own voice.

"Hah! You totally are!" He grinned and moved closer to her neck, causing her to yelp again and attempt to slide a hand over the spot to cover it.

"H-hey!" Chiharu blurted out as Rin took a hold of her wrist, lifting her palm from her neck, so he could continue to tease her skin. "S-stop it!" she squeaked once again, becoming more and more frustrated by the second, while the boy was warming up the side of her neck. "I-I'm not ticklish there, don't...! Ahn~!"

"If you're not, then wha–?" Rin looked up from her neck and leaned further over her shoulder to see the brown haired girl shuddering slightly with a flustered red face, immobilized by his hands holding her by the wrists. "You..."

His face also flared red and he stiffened. Rin realized he had been playing with what seemed to be Chiharu's weak spot. As in rendering a woman numb, panting and shaking. That kind of weak spot.

"A-ah! Sorry!" At that realization, he gently released his grasp on her wrists and the girl slowly stumbled to the ground on her weak knees with shoulders cringed and hands clutching the sides of her neck protectively. "Pft..." He couldn't believe it. "Pffhahahaha!" he couldn't help but burst in laughter. He couldn't believe that such a tomboy would have such a weak spot just like those sleazy girls in a hentai manga. Not that he read any... There was no way he would look at such lewd things!

"Wh-what are you laughing at?!" The brunette was growing more and more upset by the second that he was making fun of her and even more for the fact that he was able to render her helpless so easily.

"I'm sorry, it's just– haha! Your face is– hah!"

"W-what's wrong with my face, damnit?!" the girl scoffed, attempting to glare up at Rin with watery eyes.

"So you do like it, huh?" the boy stated after he crouched to smirk mischievously at her on eye level.

"So what if I do?! What's it to you?!" Chiharu shot back, turning her head away from him.

"Wait. What? Really?! I was just joking." Rin was a bit surprised that she didn't deny it.

"Though it would've been more pleasant for you if my chest was pressed to your back, huh?"

"What?!"

It was payback time. Chiharu had moved on the offensive as she jumped and toppled Rin, falling with her palms to the floor on his either side, a mischievous smile playing on her face.

"Ah. I slipped. My knees were weak," she faked as she purposely let herself fall on top of him making him fall on his elbows with his back to the floor. Letting another smirk crawl up her face, she observed as the boy looked away with a blush when his gaze accidentally went past below her collarbone.

"Rin~ are you okay~?" she teased, inching closer, letting the black haired boy feel the soft pressure against his chest shift about and he covered his face with the back of his hand, trying to conceal the redness that crept upon it.

He didn't seem to realize he couldn't hide his flaring pointy ears, which gave him out, although the brown headed girl didn't really need any clues to read him.

"Rin~?" she whispered even closer, her breath touching his now flaming red ear, the result of yet another shift of her soft chest against his firm one. And then...

"OW! WHAT THE–?!"

"AHAHAHA!" Chiharu had bit his ear, making Rin yell out as she burst into hysterics and rolled down away from him on the ground. "You should've seen your face! Hahah!" She pointed at him, clutching her stomach while lying on the floor laughing.

"That was cruel!" Rin, now fully pouting, sat up with his arms folded and legs crossed.

"Oh, please, Rin, you started it." The girl also sat up, putting an arm around his shoulders with her head rested on his left one. "With the body touching and all. Lewd stuff."

"That wasn't my intention! I told you it wasn't on purpose! A-and you were the one who liked it!"

"Oh, like you didn't, you pervert!"

"Who's the pervert here, I wonder?!"

"You didn't deny it! You did like it! Ha!"

"D-don't put words in my mouth!"

"Come on, admit it, you get excited so easily!" Just to prove her point, she brushed her chest against his back making him blush a little.

"T-that's so not true!"

"Oh, but your reactions speak otherwise."

"Like you're one to talk, you tomboyish tsundere!" Rin blew a hot breath at her neck, making her blush and cringe a little with watery eyes, proving his own point in turn.

"W-who's the tsundere?!" Chiharu then inched her face towards his, and pushed her chest to his back a bit more, successfully flustering him.

"S-shut up!" He turned his head the other way and felt the girl pull away from him. He sighed when he was finally free from her teasing. Then he felt a slight tug at something, not his clothes but... oh no... his tail! "H-hey, what are you doing?! AH~!"

"Oh-ho! I see I have discovered your weakness, Okumura."

The boy jumped up to his feet and tugged back at his tail, trying to pry it from the girl's hold. "Let it go!" He seemed to almost plead her.

"Why?" Chiharu tried innocently and pulled him closer by the tail.

"Please..." Oh no, he just had to give her that lost puppy look, it wasn't fair. He was gazing at her pleadingly with glossed-over blue eyes, looking like he was really in pain.

"Fine," the brunette sighed and let go of the black tail. "Sorry if it hurt..." she muttered with downcast eyes. Maybe she had gone a little too far after all– "Huh?! What the– AH-mph!"

Emerald eyes widened when the girl felt the very tail she had just released sneak around her waist and trap her just to pull her towards Rin who led on an attack of his own. He met her lips full on with his, taking advantage of her surprise and smoothly sliding his tongue in to brush against her own, making her attempt of a yell come out as a half moan. His hands made their way to her lower back as hers clutched his sleeves roughly and as the kiss deepened, Chiharu shooed away her surprise, relishing in the delight of the situation.

"Ah, sorry about that! I didn't mean to! It was just instinct!" Rin pulled away for a brief moment to apologize with a worried look.

"Shut up, tsundere," Chiharu retorted, pulling him back in by his necktie for another stolen kiss.

Yukio: Not to interrupt again, Nii-san, but if you don't hurry, you two are gonna be late for class.

Chiharu: So what, four eyes?

Yukio: I can give you detention for that, you know.

Rin: But doesn't that just mean we'd be together a lot more?

Chiharu: You totally are a pervert.

Yukio: To be honest, I'm not really surprised, since he's been reading all that henta–

Rin: AHAHAHAHAHA! FUNNY JOKE, YUKIO, YOU CAN GO NOW!

Chiharu: ...I'm not even gonna ask.
