If you've read the 5 shorts that come before this one: CONGRATULATIONS! You have survived the nonsense that spews out of my head and onto my paper/screen (depending on where I wrote it!). If you're starting with this one: NO!!! GO BACK!!!!! READ THE OTHER ONES FIRST! Actually, I don't care what order you read them in. Do whatever you like! But anyway, I no longer have Financial Literacy, but I do sit around for an entire class hour not doing much of anything at one point in my day, and this short little.....thing.....is what resulted today! :D I had actually been thinking about this one for awhile and just couldn't get it to put itself together in my head......but it has finally emerged and is here for your reading pleasure! Or.....not. LAWL
Prompt: Gray
"GRAAAAAAHHH!!!"
Nowaki dropped what he was doing and ran to the bathroom, which Hiro had entered just moments before. "Hiro-san?" He tried to open the door, but it was blocked from the inside. "Hiro-san? Hiro-san, what's wrong?"
"Go away!" Hiro's voice came from right behind the door.
"Hiro-san, come out! What's going on?"
"Leave me alone! This is your fault!!"
"What…?" Nowaki let go of the door handle. "My fault? What did I……..Hiro-san, are you pregnant?"
The door flew open and a shampoo bottle narrowly missed Nowaki's head. "I'M A MAN!!! HOW THE HELL COULD I BE PREGNANT?!"
"Well, when you said it was my fault…"
"LOOK!! Look at this! You caused this!!" Hiro yanked on a section of his hair. "You and those damn college students!!!"
"I don't see anything—"
"It's there! Right there! Look!!" Hiro reached up and yanked Nowaki's head down to his level. "A gray hair! Right in the middle of my head!"
Sure enough, there was a single gray hair, unnoticeable amid all the brown.
Nowaki laughed. "Hiro-san, you can't even see it!"
"SHUT UP!! I know it's there! It means….it means that….that I'm getting….old."
"Hiro-san…" Nowaki wrapped his arms around the dejected older man and pulled him in close. "One little gray hair doesn't matter. You'll always be cute and perfect to me."
"Shut up," came Hiro's muffled reply.
So......yeah.....Hiro's having his midlife crisis! Lol. Actually the pregnant part got put in there because I was watching Kyo Kara Maoh! (a show I love and adore!) and Yuri's all like, "You're preggers?!" and it made me laugh! So I've had the word "preggers" stuck in my head.....and it somehow found it's way into this! (not the actually word, but that's what it is....) Well, thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy it at least a little bit! Please review!
