The problem with changing plans on the fly, Kid decided, was that it made his previous plans get blown to hell. If Kid had thought things through more clearly, he would have resisted the urge to fuck the lawyer into unconsciousness. Kid blamed his actions from the fact that he had been so turned on by the other man's appearance and response to him that the redhead had temporarily taken leave of his senses. If Kid had remembered the specifics of his job, the redhead would have remembered sooner that he was supposed to bring some kind of proof that he had killed Law to those who had hired him for the job.
As soon as that particular detail entered his mind, Kid ended up on the bench in Law's room, and cursed himself for being such a damn fool. How the hell was he supposed to provide proof when he now had no intention of killing the irritating yet sexy son of a bitch lawyer? Kid supposed that he could bleed Law a little and smear it on some clothing. It would be crude, but Kid figured that since this wasn't really his kind of gig, that those that had hired him for the job might be willing to let slide Kid's pathetic offer of proof. If they didn't, Kid himself might find himself a bloody smear on the ground after getting the shit beaten out of him. The redhead would not put it past them to even jip him on the rest of the money if he didn't show up with a body, or even a piece of the body, and there was no way that Kid was going to maim the man that was passed out on the nearby bed.
Kid sighed heavily. He didn't want to have to think so damn much at…what, three in the fucking morning? Or was it four? He didn't care enough to actually turn his head to look around for the clock. He still had a few hours before he was supposed to present the obviously not dead lawyer to the boss of the man that had hired him for the job. Shit. Kid knew he should have not taken the job, but desperation and boredom had won out in the end. And just when he thought things couldn't get any worse, the attractive fuck on the bed that was the cause of his problems decided to regain consciousness and add to his misery of being a dumbass. Kid heard Law shift on the bed, before the dark haired man spoke in a clearly pissed off manner, though it was obvious he was trying to keep that anger toned down for whatever reason as he began to spew threats.
"I hope that you realize that I'm going to send your ass straight to jail. There won't even need to be a damn trial. And I'll make sure you are put in the worst area of the prison. Perhaps a taste of your own medicine will dissuade you from breaking and entering another person's home and forcing yourself on them."
Shit. How the hell could Law be so damn awake after being asleep moments before? Unless he had been faking it. Kid didn't bother to look up from where he was had his eyes on the ugly ass rug. Instead, he snorted at the dark haired man's lack of manners. "Aren't you the cheerful one? And here I thought you were going to threaten to cut my dick and balls off." Kid grumbled, his thoughts still on what to do about his the more pressing predicament of saving his own ass. Fortunately, or unfortunately, Law being awake and sassy distracted him.
"That can be arranged, you know. I do happen to have a sharp knife in my kitchen. No anesthesia though, but who knows, you might enjoy the pain. Perhaps you'll be so good as to untie me and drop your pants while I retrieve the knife?" Law's voice was disgusted now, yet at the same time held a tone of pure seething venom, "You seemed so eager to do so only a little while ago."
"Damn, you are just asking for me to beat the shit out of you, aren't you?" Kid griped, finally deigning it necessary to lift his head so that he could lock eyes with Law. The redhead took the chance to get in a good eyeful of the blue haired man, and couldn't help but appreciate the way Law's muscles flexed as the lawyer tried and failed to free his wrists himself. Kid felt to point out that there was no use doing it, but figured it would only encourage Law to sass him, which Kid actually found to be doing interesting things to his body. Kid tried to ignore the fact that Law's pants had slipped down slightly, which gave him a good view of his hips. Kid brought his eyes up to the lawyer's chest, where his gaze lingered a little longer before he grinned appreciatively, "Nice tats."
"Flattery will get you nowhere, Eustass-ya." Law said darkly, either not noticing that Kid had been checking him out, or in no mood to bring it up, "Or have you forgotten that you have recently forced yourself on me when I obviously did not want you to?"
"Funny, you seemed to be enjoying yourself. I even heard a little begging." Kid commented, as his mind drifted back to what to do about how to give evidence to his temporary employers of his not so deceased hit. It was hard to keep focused on that when Law presented quite the sight of being a ruffled mess and rather tasty looking in the way that Kid wanted to go in for another round and get a better taste of the other man's skin.
"You are unbelievable." Law's voice was one of disbelief, though it could have just been because he had seen the lusty look cross the other man's face, "Do you honestly think you haven't done anything wrong?"
"No." Kid said in response, only half listening, because he was still eying Law and the way his body moved while trying to free itself of the zip tie. Fuck, Kid had never been one for bondage, but he could clearly see why some might like it. It was rather erotic to watch Law struggle right now on the bed with nowhere to go. Kid shifted uncomfortably on the bench. Shit. He had to stop thinking about Law. He had to think about proof. Proof or his ass was on the line and Kid did not fancy ending up six feet under because of the man before him. Dammit. "Listen, your scrawny ass is already causing me trouble, and since I ain't gonna kill you, I have to figure how to let some other people think that I did. So shut the hell up."
"Do not tell me what to do, you uncouth beast. I am not going to allow you to continue to insult me and treat me in this manner." Law said indignantly, his hands twitching behind his back as he renewed his efforts to free his wrists.
Kid growled something under his breath, "You are fucking noisy, you know that? Keep it down." Kid looked Law up and down with a grin, "Uncouth, huh? Wordy bastard. Know what? I think I'm gonna make you enjoy yourself next time."
"There will not be a next time. You are not going to touch me again. I will get my neighbors attention." Law said ominously, clearly displeased that Kid was even considering it.
Kid barely had time to register Law's words before the dark haired man took a deep breath. If the redhead didn't think that the lawyer would actually scream he might have laughed, but Kid wasn't about to wait and find out. Instead, he quickly lurched up from the bench and over to the bed. Kid all but bowled Law over onto the sheets, and whatever the dark haired man had been about to say or do was reduced to what suspiciously sounded like a squeak as Kid's weight pinned him to the bed. The redhead did not give Law any time to react, as his lips closed over ones that were slightly parted. Kid rested one arm on the bed to prevent him from crushing Law with his weight as the other twined through the man's hair. Kid tilted his head to give him a better angle to deepen the kiss, more or less ignoring Law's struggle to get away. The damn bastard was pressing his buttons, but at the same time, Kid liked Law's attitude.
The red head hummed thoughtfully as he darted his tongue out across Law's lips in a curious swipe, and found that the other man had clamped his lips shut tight, denying him access. Kid smiled against the other's lips. While he thought of what to do, the redhead was going to have a little fun at the other man's expense. He knew that the lawyer would spew a lot of hate at him for what he was about to do, but for now, Kid didn't care. He wanted to make the other man miserable, and if he enjoyed it, that would make it more humiliating for him. And later on, once they were out of sight of the cops, Kid would find a way to get this fucking bastard to free his gang from prison. Kid had no intention of even giving Law the chance to try and land his ass in jail.
As if Law could do that on his own with the position he found himself in now.
Kid gently nipped Law's lower lip with his teeth, and his smile grew at the little intake of air at the action. That was better. The red head kept his left hand tangled in Law's mussed up hair as his other hand drifted down to the dark haired lawyer's waist, where it slipped beneath the waistband and gripped the man's member. Kid's hand tightened in Law's hair when the other man a displeased sound and shifted, as if trying to make Kid let go of his more intimate part that the redhead currently held loosely in his right hand. Kid merely started to idly trail his hand along, intent on making Law squirm as much as possible before he released him.
Law held out for a few moments, before he seemed to lose himself in Kid's touch as his body went limp, and a faint whimper rose from him.
Encouraged by the sound, Kid increased the tempo of his hand, squeezing gently now and again, amused when Law started to buck his hips slightly as he moaned something incoherently against his lips. Satisfied that Law was more distracted by the hand job than his lips, Kid nipped at Law's lower lip again, pleased when the dark haired man tentatively parted his lips this time. Kid didn't waste any time in deepening the kiss, and plunged his tongue into Law's mouth, intent on getting as much of a taste as he could before Law thought to try and bite him. Which he did, once the lawyer's mind had caught back up with his body.
"Shit." Kid hissed as Law bit sharply into the kiss, and hastily drew back before the dark haired man could bite again. Kid also withdrew his hand from Law's pants, because it seemed like the lawyer had half the mind to lurch up and try to bite his arm. Which would have been funny if Kid didn't think that it might actually hurt. But a bleeding lip was nothing to Kid, as seeing Law with tears in his eyes, a humiliated expression and clearly aroused was rather satisfying. Mission accomplished. Kid turned away as he lifted a gloved hand and wiped at the blood on his lip. "…I didn't peg you as a biter."
"Fuck you. I hope that once you are in jail, those other monsters will tear you apart."
Kid sighed inwardly as he turned away, half rising from the bed. He did not have time to deal with this bullshit right now. He had an idea of how to deal with his 'providing proof' but to do so, he was going to have to rough Law up some more, and from the way the man was acting, he was only going to offer up more verbal abuse. Belatedly he realized that Law had risen and was now seated, but he sure as hell felt that sharp kick delivered to his backside. The unexpected kick sent him stumbling forward, where he cracked the side of his head against the son of a bitch's desk. Kid winced, feeling the sharp pain, and had to wonder if he was now bleeding. But the matter of whether or not he was injured vanished as he heard a rather low chuckle of satisfaction from Law.
The red head slowly stood, before he half turned and looked over his shoulder at Law. Something in his expression must have made Law realize that his action, while good retribution, was not the brightest of ideas while he had his hands secured behind his back. Kid stomped toward the bed, and he himself nearly laughed at the sight of Law skittering across the bed in some attempt to put distance between the two of them. "Think you're so damn funny, don't you? Do you have a death wish?" Kid snapped irritably as he went straight onto the bed, where he cornered Law against the head of the bed. Kid seized the blue haired man by the throat and pinned him down, weirdly turned on by the sight of Law gasping for breath. "Maybe I should just kill you. I think they wanted to see a body anyway, and it would save me a lot of trouble trying to figure out what to do in place of that to keep you alive."
Law wheezed something, but Kid decided that he didn't particularly care what was being said. The bastard had had the gall to laugh at him, and Kid hated being ridiculed in any way. Kid hastily let go when he realized that Law had passed out, and felt only the tiniest bit guilty that he had choked the other man out. Which left Kid alone to dwell on the same question as before.
How the hell did he make it seem like he had killed Law, when in reality he hadn't?
-x
Law hated Eustass Kid.
It was the dark haired lawyer's first thought when he woke up from the newest abuse that Kid had decided to put him through. For a moment, Law had thought that the redhead might find it amusing to choke him to death, but as he was alive and breathing, it seemed more like some sick sense of humor on the Kid's part to physically demonstrate his power over him and the fact that he could change his mind about whether or not he found Law more interesting dead or alive.
There was the soft sound of muffled footsteps, and the sensation of being carried. At least, that was what it felt like. Law could feel arms beneath his legs, and the sensation of a broad and warm back where his head rested. Law wheezed out a faint laugh. He didn't even have to guess who would dare to carry him piggy-back like this, and there was nothing he could do about it. His arms were still secured behind his back, and with a peek through half open eyes, Law saw black material out of the corner of his eye. It appeared as though Kid had draped his black leather jacket over his shoulders to hide the fact that Law's wrists were bound. That was more of a smart move on Kid's part. Law wouldn't have thought the redhead would have been capable of doing something like that.
"Awake, are you? Do me a favor and don't make a fuss. I'm tired as fuck and just want to get some sleep." There was a short pause, before Kid continued, his words a bit more uncertain, "Are you cold? You didn't have any winter clothing in your closet."
"Inquiring after my well-being...I didn't think that you would care." Law wasn't sure how to explain that the apartment wasn't his full time home, but there was really no need for that. Kid didn't need to know. It was a slip up that Law had forgotten to bring along warmer clothes, but he guessed that Kid would merely attribute it to a crappy living place.
"S..shut the hell up. I just don't need you freezing to death or some stupid shit like that before I get back to my place." Kid grumbled, trying to cover up his embarrassment at the idea that he was asking if Law were all right, "You're a man lawyer, aren't you? Get clothes that match the time of year. If someone else had come, they could have injured you and left you outside to freeze to death."
Law didn't think that Kid could ever sound so sincere, and found that the embarrassment in the other man's was rather amusing. Law couldn't help but yawn. Kid's mention of getting sleep earlier sounded like a wonderful idea. His ass still hurt from Kid's abuse of him the first time, and Law was annoyed to find that he was still half hard from Kid's poor attempts to administer a blow job. Law could have done a better job half asleep. At the moment, Law was very demoralized and thrown off, and couldn't work up enough willpower to argue the point with Kid or do anything about his body. However, as soon as Law felt well enough, he was not going to leave Kid alone. He would harp on the brute, and hope that he would find an opening to deal with him accordingly. Kid couldn't have him restrained the whole time. He'd have to drop his guard and free his wrists sometime. And that would be when Law would act. Just as Law's eyes were about to close, he saw heard a soft 'meow' that made him bristle with indignation. "You are kidnapping my cat as well?"
"I ain't gonna leave your fur ball to starve. He can keep my cat company." Kid's voice took on a gleeful tone, "And you can keep me company."
"…I am not a pet, Eustass-ya." Law winced as the redhead's hands squeezed against his legs.
"You'll be whatever the fuck I want you to be, if you don't want me to off your scrawny ass."
Law let his head rest heavily between Kid's shoulder blades, but said nothing. Even he could tell that Kid was reluctant to even consider killing him. If Kid thought that his absence would go unnoticed, he was sorely mistaken. While Law ran his own cases as a defense lawyer, he was not the one running the show. Two other people that ran the firm he worked in, and Law knew that at least one of them would be worried about his well-being if he didn't show up for work the next day. The other one, Law thought irritably, was far more likely to dock his rate of pay and laugh at him for allowing something like this to even happen in the first place.
The blue haired man smirked as he closed his eyes. Either way, Kid was going to be in for a nasty surprise when he realized just how foolish kidnapping him had been. Though it would have been far worse for Kid had he actually gone through with his original plan to kill him.
The Donquixote brothers were quite keen on keeping their firm as one of the best places for people to hire lawyers and the like, and there would be hell to pay should one of the people they considered their own become threatened. It was as if the two men took personal offense to anyone messing around with anyone that worked under them.
Law supposed that, for once, he was grateful for that overly ridiculous protective nature. It made the cold night not seem so bad, even with what the future was likely to hold for him until someone came to rescue him. The longer the walk stretched out, the more Law begin to wonder if a mugger would come out of nowhere and give Kid a run for his money. That would add to the list of things that had gone very wrong so early in the morning.
Probably not, given how cold it was. It was still an entertaining notion.
Law had the uneasy feeling that Kid would crush any would be mugger either way, just from intimidation alone, and that wouldn't be so bad in the lawyer's mind if it weren't for the fact that the redhead was currently kidnapping him and his cat.
Kid remained silent, and Law became further demoralized when it became clear that no one would be around so early in the morning to help him. And he still ached from Kid's rough treatment of him earlier, though the heat radiating off of the redhead's back made it hard to stay awake and alert. Probably why the sly son of a bitch was carrying him around in this manner in the first place. Law's eyes closed as he sagged against Kid's back, though the dark haired man's lips lifted briefly in a smile when he felt a paw reach out from the cat carrier Kid held clasped beneath him in one hand, and felt little claws hook through his pants.
Stupid cat had no idea what was going on.

A/N: Thanks you for the reviews/favs/follows! I felt inspired to type, mainly because it seems like people are interested in reading more, and also because it's only been up for around three days. Hopefully I can keep this story entertaining. And because I was having fun typing this ridiculous thing, I will be posting the next chapter as soon as I finish editing it later tonight.
I've also decided that I'm going to do ~2500-4000 word chapters, give or take. So I think that the story will go past the guessed upon 15 chapters if I do it that way. It is a heck of a lot easier to edit shorter chapters (and easier to read it as well when there aren't too many scene jumps).
