A/N: Remember, if you like, send in shippings and I'll try not to KILL THEM -fume- but yeah this was surprisingly fun to write/hide from my sister!


shut your mouth

The little nerd was standing next to him again.

Not that it bothered him; he was too cool and composed for that.

"Hey, Shigeru! Fancy meeting you here.. um.. again!" Hiroshi was too chipper for his migraine's comfort.

"Hey, twerp," he tried to force a smile, but it just wasn't happening.

"..." The silence was palpable whilst Shigeru observed the passing shoppers with a wistful thought of, "Maybe one day I'll get to restock alone." A desperate attempt to beam the thought to an unnecessarily fidgety Hiroshi went fruitless.

"Hey, Shigeru, how long will you be in town?" The blond smiled, quite irritatingly radiant. "Last time, it was only for a little while, and Kasumi was really disappointed.." Hiroshi, caught on a topic, was finding impossible to shut up.

"I, ah.. a few days..." Shigeru scowled. Why oh why couldn't the lady with the cat litter hurry up and check out? "Er, well I just.."

Hiroshi ignored him. "..and Ookido-Hakase had a lot to say about that! Anyways.." His voice grew steadily louder, and the brunet found himself clenching his basket until his knuckles turned white.

"...so she whopped him one right in the face! I just-"

That was it.

Shigeru whipped around, firmly sealing his lips over the pest's mouth. His last sentence drained out into a shocked gasp.

"Now then, won't you please shut up?" the Ookido boy hissed, visage redder than the bag of apples in his basket.

Hiroshi nodded, rather dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, Satoshi and Kasumi snorted, bodies shaking with mirth behind a convienient bench.

"I knew those two idiots would do it!" she cried, high-fiving Satoshi in return.
