AN: Yes, I know, a looooong delay. I'm sorry! I didn't intend for such a break, but I'm back. So there.
After the…interesting, albeit longer travel to the local convenience store than originally intended ((because who can honestly resist such an adorable Satoshi? Thus making an increasingly dangerous Krad!)), the two finally wove their way between isles. Krad kept a dangerously suspicious glare in his eyes whenever someone came within a few feet of them, so they had pretty much the whole selection to themselves. Shaking his head, and not really in the mood to reprimand the angel, he just read some of the tiny labels and hoped he didn't succumb to the dizzy sensation he suddenly began to feel.
Frowning in concentration, hiding the overwhelming sickness he felt, he beckoned Krad after him. "Okay, now I've got what I need…" He was puzzled as Krad paused, looking as though he wanted to look around longer. "…What do you want?"
Krad smirked, eyes not at all as friendly as they should have been. "Oh, I'll catch up," He left quickly, leaving the un-amused tamer behind. He saw what he needed on the way in, just the very thing his Satoshi needed. Oh, he would feel better all right. He'd see to that himself! Picking up one of the hidden jars of lubricant the store had to offer, he hurried back off to his Satoshi before the other could leave the isle. ((…Yeah…you should know where this is going…))
He eyed the approaching blonde without such a convincing glare as he avoided wondering just what he would want to retrieve. It was probably better not to ask, or find out. Feeling faint by the time Krad had finally reached his side, he gently stopped him mid-stride with the slightest pull on the sleeve. Resting his forehead on the other's strong back, he felt his temperature rising, and knew this couldn't end well.
Krad was beyond worried as he was suddenly stopped, and glared at anyone that tried to approach them in mixtures of curiosity and concern. Oh so carefully, he gently wrapped his arm around Satoshi's slight frame and pulled him close. With ease he lifted the boy, uncertain of what to really do when Satoshi slowly handed him some money. Smiling, he went forward and paid for their items, everyone had made way and hadn't bothered to raise eyebrows at the questionable extra Krad purchased. In fact, a few seemed to silently cheer the two on.
Satoshi sighed as Krad laid him back down on the couch, finally leaving him be if just for the moment. He had insisted on carrying him all the way from the store, to the couch. Not that he minded to be so close to the blonde's warm body… He could feel his face heat up, and this time it certainly wasn't from the fever.
Krad frowned in concern as Satoshi's face went red again. After they left the store he thought his Satoshi had began to feel better! How could he over look such a detail? Leaning down so his hair was covering the boy's body, he let his lips gently brush against Satoshi's forehead. His Satoshi's forehead. The skin felt really warm, though not dangerously so. Sighing with relief, Krad left to fetch the recently purchased medicine.
The bag was left in the kitchen; Krad wanted the extra item to be a special surprise for later. Maybe a present for him getting better? Whatever the reason, it'd be special all right. Smiling to himself as he followed the directions on the bottle of medicine, Krad wondered just how Satoshi would like to take it. Fast or slow?
AN: A bit evil, but I'll leave you on that note… 3 these recent chapters were originally intended to be three-part installments. But now I think they'll be longer…not that I'm unhappy. Lemon soon, maybe next chapter? Review!
