Wrapping Paper (13/12/2010):

Ishida sighed audibly, earning a dark glare from his lover.

"Quit with that, it's not my fault that I can't do this!"

Ishida quirked an eyebrow at that statement, gaze flitting around the room before coming back to settle on Ichigo, watching with controlled amusement as he tried once again to hold all the folds down on the wrapping paper and try to stick it – all at the same time.

Ishida chuckled as the paper sprung free of Ichigo's fingers and he took pity on the other man. He leant forward, body hanging over the gifts littered around Ichigo and coming to rest his fingers on the edges of the paper.

"Is it so hard to ask for help?"

Ishida watched as tanned cheeks gained a dark flush.

"No."

His brow furrowed as he watched Ichigo continue his attempts to wrap in vain. "Then why is it that you can't manage to do it then?"

"Because I didn't want you to see how bad I am at this."

"Oh..." Ishida leant forward, fingers slipping free of the paper, garnering a growl of frustration from Ichigo which swiftly turned into a soft moan when their lips connected.

A soft sigh as lips parted.

"Idiot."
