FASH: Ohhh… Christmas is coming up fast! Yay! And then once it's all over I can finally go back to the mall and not be run over by crazy procrastinators!

Damn but Sena look very sexy right now, staring up at him from the ground with large, inquisitive eyes, a flush across his cheeks and breathing deeply as though he needed to catch his breath after a long, deep kiss.

'Fuck, his lips are looking sexier every minute.'

Sena's eyes were starting to glaze over and he smiled a bit as the world around him got fuzzier. 'You know, Hiruma kind of looks like-' He forced himself to sit up. "Oh my God!" Hiruma took a step back, raising one eyebrow delicately as Sena pointed a shaking finger at him.

"YOU! You're the elf girl!" 'At least now I know when he took that picture… Uh, Hiruma-san looks angry…'

Fists clenched, eyes reduced to mere slits, fangs glinting, body shaking from rage.

"ELF GIRL! WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?" He bellowed as he knelt on the ground, face hovering dangerously close to Sena's.

"Uhhhhmmm, well, you know, a couple days ago when I was sick. But it was just a dream I guess, I think uhhhh…" Sena nervously fiddled with the hem of his shirt, eyes darting everywhere but Hiruma's face until a strong hand grabbed a hold of his shirt collar.

"Maybe you're dreaming now then." And with that harsh lips crashed against his own and Sena felt himself go limp, wondering if he should close his eyes and enjoy his second ever kiss for all he was worth. But Hiruma broke away before he could make up his mind.

Hiruma stood up, towering over a frozen Sena. "You have a fifteen minute break." He said as he none to gently put Sena's helmet back on his head.

Sena could only stare as a green tinged Hiruma sauntered off, his thoughts wavering between. 'Darn, I still have to run more.' And 'Woah, Hiruma-san kissed me.'

Meanwhile Hiruma was mentally slapping himself. 'Way to scare the kid Hiruma, just randomly kissing him like that. But what the fuck did he mean by: 'You're the elf girl!' Dammit! Thinking about it is pissing me off!' He leant against the wall of the clubhouse and growled to himself. 'I don't look like a girl; I'm the epitome of manliness.' He threw a futile glare at Sena, who was still sitting and staring off into the space where Hiruma had once stood. 'I think I gave him the shock of his life.' He couldn't hold back his smirk as his mind drifted back to the kiss he stole.

'At least I got to feel his lips against mine again.'

Apparently when one's thoughts were constantly teeter tottering between: 'Darn, I still have to run more.' And 'Woah, Hiruma-san kissed me.' Time flew by very fast and in what seemed like seconds Sena was being forced up and to run around the track again.

It seemed like only seconds before his muscles felt like they were on fire and Sena bit his lip to try and distract himself. Sadly, biting his lip brought back memories of his first kiss, causing him to flush behind his eye shield. 'I can't believe I did that, how embarrassing!' He openly stared at Hiruma from behind the safety of his green tinted eye shield, face becoming redder with every labored breath he took.

It wasn't until when the sun was sinking into the horizon that Hiruma had called out to him, saying that his make up practice (from hell) was finally over.

Sena had let himself drop to the ground, barely able to keep himself sitting up as he watched Hiruma's feet get closer and closer. 'I bet in hell, people have to train like this nonstop.'

"Oi Sena, get your ass up before I'm forced to drag you home." Hiruma said casually through his wad of sugar free gum. 'And then once you're home I'll tuck us both into bed.'

Sena nodded sleepily, getting up and stumbling to the clubhouse where he changed as quickly could, stepping out of the clubhouse with a mildly surprised look on his face when he saw Hiruma standing next to the door. "Ano, Hiruma-san, did you want to talk to me about something?" Sena asked with a pang of regret. 'He probably wants to say he's sorry for kissing me… Not that I care or anything!'

"I figured I'd walk you home, if you collapse or something before you get there the fuckin' manager will be giving me an earful tomorrow morning." "Oh."

They walked together, the awkward silence only being broken by the snapping of Hiruma's gum, they were halfway to Sena's house when the younger boy realized something.

"Hiruma-san, you called me Sena!" He gapped at the older boy excitedly, Hiruma just raised an eyebrow. "Huh?" "You called me by my first name! Are you feeling okay? Do I need to bring you to a doctor? Do I need to-" Hiruma's fist crashed down onto Sena's head. "Shut up, you're overreacting." Hiruma said in a bored tone as he continued walking, Sena shuffling behind him as he cradled his abused scalp.

"That huuuuurt." Sena whispered to himself and sniffled, unaware that Hiruma's ears had twitched after hearing Sena's comment, he turned around, stooping down to Sena's eyelevel as he asked with all seriousness. "Do you want me to kiss it better?"

Complete, utter silence enveloped them for about five seconds.

"WHAT?" "Geez, no need to be so bashful, it's not like I'll be kissing you anywhere inappropriate. Now hurry it up, you're walking way too slow." Hiruma quickened his pace, smirking when he hear Sena groan behind him.

'He doesn't have to walk me home, and it's easy for him to walk fast, he has longer legs then me and he wasn't forced to run around for an unbelievably long amount of time.' He sighed, vaguely wondering what would happen if he just stopped walking for a minute. Would Hiruma keep on walking, unaware that Sena had paused, or would he automatically know and turn around, ready to berate Sena for being such a weakling?

Being as lost in thought as he was, Sena didn't notice that he had already stopped and that Hirtuma did turn around and walk up to him until he felt himself being hoisted up into Hiruma's arms, bridal style.

"Wha?" "If you're going to be a lazy ass, then I guess I'll just have to carry you home, but you know…" Hiruma leered down at him. "I expect a reward for this."

Sena was far to frightened by the look on Hiruma's face to ask what this 'reward' was going to be, so he allowed himself to be carried, trying futilely to ignore the looks he was getting from the occasional pedestrian.

When Hiruma reached Sena's house he reluctantly put Sena down. "Now then, about that reward." Hiruma smiled and leaned down causing Sena to blush.

"Before we discuss this reward business, can you please tell me what's going on between us?! I think I'm confused." Hiruma's smile just widened.

"You're my bitch."

Sena sputtered, clenching his fists. "What?" He ground out angrily and Hiruma laughed heartily.

"I'm kidding; besides, you don't sound threatening at all. My point is…" He swooped down to give Sena a peck on the lips. "This has been our first date."

Hiruma then ran off into the distance, but not far enough away to not hear Sena screaming.

"That was a DATE? What the HELL!"

Sena's mother poked her head outside the door, a small smile on her face. "Oh a date? You'll have to invite your girlfriend over for tea sometime sweetie."
