Disclaimer- not mine

So I'm submiting another chapter to this because I just updated today and already I have TWO new reviews! They made me so happy, so I'm dedicateing this chapter to them, and all of my reviewers up until now. You know who you are : )

This chapter is prompted solely by my piercing fetish, and how damn addicting the things are. I don't think this would be too OOC, since it is completely plausible in my mind that Shu get piercings, but if you really think he's too squeaky clean then I guess this is a small warning of OOC.

Yuki hadn't even noticed the first piercing. Nothing more than two tiny silver studs in the singer's ears, they were easily lost in his unruly pink hair. Even when the boy got a second hole, followed by the cartilage of his right ear, they went unnoticed.

Maybe that was why he took so much pleasure in the look on his lover's face the day he came home from a two month tour with a thick hoop threaded through his lower lip. The man actually did a double take, and Shuichi couldn't help but laugh.

"Something wrong, Yuki?" he asked sweetly, playing dumb. The author's eyes narrowed.

"What the hell is that on your face?"

"Oh, this?" Shu laughed again, sticking his tongue out to tease the already healed piercing, "It's just a lip ring. You like it?"

Yuki stared at him for a moment before turning back to the newspaper he had been reading, "I'm not kissing you with that thing in your mouth," he said shortly, making Shuichi pout. But before he could begin whining, his expression changed.

"Fine, but you don't know what you're missing," he said, turning his head away, "I've heard that lip rings do more than just look good."

It took a few hours of persuading, but eventually Shuichi had Yuki convinced- the ring could stay.

And I'd like to extend an invitation to anyone with an idea for a prompt. Yes, that means you. Anything, really. I can't promise I'll use it, but I'll do my best.

And I'd like to apologize, because after reading through this I realize there's a problem. After getting any sort of oral piercing, you're actually supposed to wait a while before engaging in kissing or... other such activities. So... yeah. I'm sorry that my information is faulty in here, but it's cute so it's staying.

:Update 6/8/09: The thing with the oral piercing and not doing anything with your mouth for a little while-when I said it didn't bother me. I lied. So I went back and changed it a tiny bit so that he isn't breaking piercing protocal LOL.
