! Three! Two! One! Zero! ! – a series of Youji/Natsuo drabshots

What are drabshots, you ask? They are stories that are longer than drabbles but too short to be considered a one-shot, a term conned by MANKINFAN! Enjoy reading these Loveless drabshots!

Surprise

"Kio."

Kio turned. Two identically, evil grins faced him. "Oh. Brats."

"Hold out your hand."

Kio put his hand out then drew it back as the two boys thrust their closed hands out, ready to drop what they were holding onto the man's hand. "Wait a moment…what're you trying to pull?"

"Nothing!" Youji looked insulted. "We just wanted to give you some rocks." He opened his fist to reveal a black rock. He glanced over at Natsuo, who did the same thing.

"What did you do them? They're not pieces of shit formed into a rock, are they?" He wouldn't put it past them to do that. The two exchanged glances and laughed. "You're too paranoid, Kio. Would we be touching them if they were?"

Well, he had a point. Whatever these brats were holding, it had to be okay. It wouldn't blow up or be gross or the boys wouldn't risk their hands over that. "Alright." He held out his hand and the two dropped the black rocks onto his hand.

"Ouch! You idiots! That's hot!" Instantly, a word flew through his head. Coals. Those brats had dropped red hot coals in his hands. "You masochists, holding coals!"

"Well, we're just conditioned to pain," Natsuo grinned, and they held their red hands up. "You're such a sissy."
