Title: Haunted House
Theme: 4. Haunted house
Summary: Niou just wants a new make-out place, really.


Haunted houses didn't scare Niou, Marui knew that. Niou always thought that the 'floating' headless 'ghost' in the corner was just so clearly fake, he would've had a higher chance of screaming if a dragonfly flew past his eyes in slow motion.

Haunted houses didn't scare Marui either, but only when Niou was with him. That headless ghost in the corner was just really spooking him, like it was going to glide towards him any time now. Then again, with Niou's hand grasping his reassuringly, Marui calmed down. Any ghost, person, or inanimate thing that would pose a threat to him would be dealt with Niou anyway (well, after a few taunts here and there).

So since haunted houses didn't scare the couple at all, why exactly were they there? Marui wasn't sure. Niou was leading them to somewhere near the coffin that popped up to reveal a groaning mummy. Niou squeezed beside the coffin, hidden by the long rectangular mirror that reflected zombies instead of your own reflection.

"Haru?" whispered Marui, tugging on the hand that held his. "Why are we hiding here? I can't see anything."

"You big baby," muttered Niou, stomping on the fake grass on the ground to reveal a little light wafting from the basement below. "What, are you scared?"

"No," replied Marui, squinting at his boyfriend. There was barely enough space to occupy the two of them, with the wall trapping Marui, the mirror hiding them from view and the coffin flanking the right. "So, what now?"

"And so we make-out," Niou whispered huskily into Marui's ear. He gave it a prolonged lick to emphasize his point.

"You—ah!" Marui panted as Niou moved down to suck on his neck. "You're horny—nghh—Haru..."

"Well, it's your fault you got us caught in the science lab, isn't it? Moaning my name like that over an over," teased Niou, hands already under Marui's shirt, touching the redhead in places that made him moan Niou's name over and over again like the trickster mentioned.

"Ha-Haru!" Marui breathed out. "We'll get caught in here..."

"Do we really care, Bunta"

And as Niou's tongue swiped down his bottom lip and their tongues intertwined with their salivas on each other's mouth and chin and cheek and there was groping—more, damn it-- and all the blood was rushing down there now with Niou's hands all over his skin but the place he wanted the other to touch most and all he could do was give the other breathy moans and pleas by his ear, Marui thought that no, he really didn't give a damn on whatever happened to whoever caught them this time.
