I wanted to thank everyone for all the lovely reviews and also a belated thanks to all those that reviewed this on my haitus.

This drabble is a direct follow on from the previous chapter; Making a Deal

Want

Grumbling to himself under his breath, Squalo shouldered his way through the heavy front door of the Varia mansion and out of the cold night air. Moving gingerly, the newly christened Sword Emperor began to hobble his way down the darkened corridors and towards his bedroom, leaving the gleefully chattering Lussuria and assorted underlings to deal with their luggage.

Thank Christ. Away from the fruit at last. A hot shower and warm bed were sounding pretty fucking good right about now.

But shit... he really ought to report in first.

Pausing in his limping journey, Squalo eyed the door that lead to his room longingly, before turning to glare in the direction of Xanxus' office.

Never mind it being the middle of the night, the bastard would be awake, that was for sure. Prick only ever slept during the daylight hours. Whether or not he was sober though, that was a whole different kettle of fish.

Could he really be bothered to deal with Xanxus tonight...? And was skipping out worth the reaming he'd get tomorrow..?

As the silver haired male stood deliberating the matter, the decision was made for him when the office door was thrown open with an almighty BANG revealing the head of the Varia in all his glowering glory, a bottle of what appeared to be expensive French cognac clutched in one hand.

Biting back an internal curse, Squalo nodded his head in greeting.

"Bossu," he grunted as he eyed the man before him wearily.

Xanxus blinked once in surprise, before his morphed back to its usual haughty distain.

"Out of my way trash!" he snarled, shoving past his startled subordinate and stalking in the direction of his own rooms.

What the...?

Feeling slightly flabbergasted, the shark simply gaped at the retreating man's back.

Well... that was somewhat unexpected. Honestly he'd really thought that Xanxus would have a list of crap for him to do just ready and waiting.

"Squalo, you're back!" purred a familiar delighted voice from the direction of the office that his boss had just vacated.

Blinking in suprise, the Varia Commander turned to scowl suspiciously as [Name] began stalking towards him, a half crazed glint in her eye and a leering grin on her face.

"Voi! What the hell were you doing in there with Xanxus?!" he snapped, his tone coloured with a mixture of exhausted confusion and jealousy.

"Sex now, explanations later," you ordered as you marched over to where he stood, before yanking the surprised man forwards by his belt buckle and meeting his mouth in a demanding kiss.

Squawking his surprise, the shark could only stare dumbly as you proceeded to pull him into Xanxus' office and kick the door closed behind.

Whatever protests he might have had though soon died on his lips as you shoved him into the Boss' throne like chair and dropped to your knees in front of him.

God it was good to be home.

Omake/Extended ending

Several hours later, a very dishevelled looking Squalo glanced blearily around the mess that the two of you had made of the office, ignoring your happily snoozing form beside him.

There were important documents scattered all over the floor, the booze cupboard had been raided of anything drinkable and there were suspicious stains on every available surface...

Xanxus was going to kill him. Dead.

Forget his guns, the man was going to tear him apart with his teeth.

Maybe now was a good time to find a new job... wasn't Callavone looking for people..?

BANG

Oh shit.

Squalo slowly turned to face the door, like a man approaching his death.

In it stood Xanxus, a look of disbelief frozen on his face as he took in the carnage of his work space.

"Uh..." began Squalo as he floundered for an explanation.

Xanxus's left eye began to twitch.

"Scum," he rasped as his hand began to glow an ominous red.

Oh shit.

The itch that had been plaguing her for months finally scratched, [Name] smirked to herself as she watched her Boss attempting to massacre her lover.

Oh yes, it was good to have him home.
