Yet another age change. This time, they're at the legal drinking age. This fanfic is dedicated to SaFireLupe because I read her fanfic and liked it because it was SxR. Yeah, the lemon SxR one…Don't read that one unless you're a mature person. At the end of this drabble, someone other than me might laugh.
Edit: Second drabble I've written in one day. I really guess my obsession with this couple came back.
Competition I: Drinking & Women
Father versus Son…
Who wins?
Kei Hiwatari laughed. "You know, Satoshi. A child cannot beat his father."
"Try me," Satoshi merely replied, "And genetically, you're not my father, remember?"
"A challenge, eh? Now, I can't back down." Kei reached for the champagne and popped the cap off. Two wineglasses were set on the table before him. The saké was poured and both knew the alcohol levels.
"The winner of this challenge will attend the gala with whichever woman they choose. The loser will not and will have to do the winner's paperwork." Those were the terms.
Satoshi then nodded, agreeing with the conditions. They both took their respective wineglasses. "Cheers."
"To whoever survives." Satoshi added.
Kei smirked. He was thinking that Satoshi couldn't outlast him in drinking.
Boy…was he wrong.
"Hiwatari-kun?" Risa opened the door to the office --- only to find Satoshi still sited on one of the couches, opposing his adoptive father and a glass of saké in his hand. Satoshi's father, however, wasn't so fine. Apparently, he blacked out after having too much.
"Yes, Risa?" Satoshi then frowned. "And it's Satoshi. (1)"
Risa blushed. Switching to a first-name basis was quite hard for her to adjust. "Right, Satoshi…I was asked to go check up on you."
"How…nice…" Satoshi mumbled before slumping into his seat. It appeared that the saké was affecting him now. He felt his head and dropped the wineglass, which shattered when it hit the floor. This caught Risa's attention and she rushed to his side.
"Satoshi, are you alright?" She asked, seeing him collapse onto his side on the couch.
"Just Fine." He groaned.
"Huh?" Risa then felt his hands grabbed onto hers before pulling her down. She fell right on top of him. Their lips briefly touched and her eyes widened, remembering who else was in the bureau.
"Satoshi! Not in front of your dad." She hissed, all flustered.
"He's blacked out. I don't think he'll wake up anytime soon." Satoshi retorted, "Now, since I seemed to have bested my father in our drinking contest, will you go to the Gala with me?"
Risa tilted her head to the side. "And I thought it was important for your father to go, but not you."
Satoshi stared at her. He was still waiting for an answer. Risa got off him and dusted herself off. Satoshi then sat up, straightening his tie, which had gotten messed up somehow.
"Nah, I don't feel like going to something formal tonight." Risa started. Satoshi let out a sigh. All that drinking and he wasn't going. All that effort wasted to outlast his adoptive father. Oh well, at least, he wasn't going to be doing some paperwork tonight.
"I'd rather have you take me home for the night…" Risa suddenly said, looking over her shoulder. Her face held the look of an angel, but her statement carried the seductive suggestion.
Satoshi blinked. Whoa? Did he just hear what he just heard from Risa?
Score!
Looks like the son scored this time.
(1) Possibly an unknown reference to Cardcaptor Sakura to some readers. Yukito of Cardcaptor Sakura and Tsubasa Chronicle always called Toya with the honorific ("Toya-kun"). Here, Satoshi takes Toya's place as Risa takes Yukito's.
