Warning: None really. Humor at Aidou-chan's expense

Hair Dye

Aidou wiped his tears away, burrowing further into the layers of bedcover. Even though they had made up, Zero was still sore at him. His beloved mate hadn't even said goodbye this morning. It hurt that Zero didn't want to talk to him. He hated when Zero was disappointed with him, because it made him feel inadequate. Sighing, he got out of bed and made it up, going to go take a shower.

He closed his eyes as the hot water pelted his skin, plastering his blond waves to his head. He felt constricted, like he was suffocating in this tiny apartment but he knew if he didn't stop complaining Zero would snap on him again. After showering, he got dressed, zipping up his coat, tugging his adorable pom-pom wool hat on his head, and wrapping a scarf around his neck. Striding to the night table he pocketed the money Zero usually left for him and exited the apartment.

He browsed through one of the stores, walking aimlessly from aisle to aisle. He would show Zero that he was serious about being a fugitive. But how? Besides having a job he couldn't think of anything else. He stopped when he saw a box of hair dye. Eureka! He would dye his hair! Then Zero would have to be convinced that he was serious.

He browsed through the colors. Black? No it would make him look pasty. He was already blonde. Brown? He wrinkled his nose. Now way. Red? He thought of himself as a redhead, imagining the hungry expression on Zero's face. Yes! Red it was. He picked up a random box and nearly skipped to the counter.

He hummed cheerily as he waited glancing down at the clock with barely contained anticipation. When it rang he pulled the cap off his head, azure eyes widening in horror when he turned to look in the mirror.

Zero slammed the door and rushed into the bathroom when he heard a bloodcurdling shriek. Lavender eyes widened in shock. Aidou stood in the mirror face a picture of distress, hair bright orange.

Aidou gazed at him, tears in his eyes. "I-It was supposed to be red!" He cried.

Zero gaped at the orange hair, stunned speechless. Events like this were one of the exact reasons he didn't like leaving Aidou alone to his own devices. "Wow, um…" He ran a hand through his hair.

Aidou sniffled. "What am I going to do? I can't go out like this," he stated, on the verge of tears.

Calming his nerves, Zero took decided to figure out what caused this awful mistake. "What happened?"

Aidou frowned at Zero's lack of attempts at trying to comfort him. "This is when you're supposed to say 'it doesn't look so bad usa-chan'."

Zero was not going to tell such a monumental lie. He picked up the blow dryer and turned it on, starting to dry the small distressed noble's hair. "So what happened?" Snuggling his nose into orange locks instead of golden ones was going to be weird, but he supposed he could get accustomed it.

Despite his distress, Aidou purred when Zero brushed his hands through his hair. "I wanted to show you I was serious about his so I decided to dye my hair."

Zero shook his head, combing his fingers through his mate's hair very orange hair. "Oh honey." He chuckled lightly.

Aidou glowered at him in the mirror. "It's not funny! My mane of golden beauty is the color of a pumpkin," he wailed dramatically, "I'm a pumpkin head!"

Zero leaned down to press a sweet kiss to his mate's cheek. "Aww, you're still adorable Hana-chan, you just have orange hair now."

Aidou grinned boyishly, cheeks burning pink. He turned into his mate, nuzzling his creamy neck, automatically rooting around for his favorite spot. He really needed to be comforted right now and Zero's blood could placate him.

They fed from each other, strengthening their bond and gaining pleasure.

Zero rested his back against the wall, petting Aidou's dry hair. "My cute little carrot top."

Aidou pouted at Zero, growling when he saw the sparkle in his lavender eyes. Zero was gaining amusement from his misery. "Jackass."

Zero grinned slyly. After he finished blow-drying the tiny noble's hair they sat down to play a game of Sevens, at which he crushed Aidou. He smiled satisfactorily at another victory.

Aidou pouted at Zero. "I'm starting to think that you let me win all those times we played when we first started dating," he said suspiciously.

Zero collected his winnings, ten coupons for getting out of laundry duty. "I was trying to get my hooks in you first, but now that you're my bitch I can kick your sweet little ass at cards all I want," he joked.

Aidou stuck his tongue out at Zero. "Oh Zero, you're such a liar. You know you're my bitch." Then he grew serious. Zero hadn't really looked at him since he'd been a pumpkin head. He sighed. Maybe he was ugly to Zero now. "Zero you still love me right? Even though my hair is neon orange?"

Zero smiled. Aidou's insecurities were cute sometimes. "Hana baby, I'd love you even if you dyed your hair all the colors of the rainbow," he said sincerely. He placed a hand on his mate's smaller one, rubbing it tenderly.

Aidou grinned sweetly, blue eyes simmering with lust. "Show me."

Zero gave a tiny lop-sided grin, hunger leaping into his lavender orbs. "Gladly." He tackled Aidou, chuckling when the little noble shrieked as his chair hit the floor. After untangling their bodies from the supine chair, they ended up naked on the floor.

Zero panted, rubbing Aidou's naked shoulder. "Fuck Hana, where did you learn to do that?"

Aidou licked Zero's nipple. "I read it in that sex magazine you brought home, a week ago."

Zero snorted at Aidou. "Li-Chan gave it to me, the pervert. Anyway I want you to do that every fucking time."

Aidou blushed slightly. "Only if you promise to do that thing you do so rarely."

It was Zero's turn to blush. "Whatever you say." He nestled Aidou and they lay cuddling on the floor briefly before rising to clean themselves.

"Do you want something sweet Hana-chan?" He leaned over the top of the couch to press a soft kiss to the temple of the small noble sitting on its plushy cushions, gazing lasciviously at the boxer-shorts hugging his crotch perfectly.

Aidou nodded. "Yes!" Why did Zero always ask that? Zero should know by now that he adored sweeties almost as much as he enjoyed his mate sucking him off, almost (his adoration for sweets came nowhere near his enjoyment of Zero fucking him).

Zero smiled slyly, turning away to walk into the kitchen. He leaned on the counter. "How does pumpkin pie sound?" He asked with a chuckle in his voice. He promptly received a pillow to the face.

Whoot! Here is another chapter down my friends! I hope you all enjoy this fic and if you do please Read and Review.
