Enjoy!

"I'm starviiiiiing!"

"You already said so monkey… and anyway, you're invading my own space…"

"What the hell you perv…?"

"Get lost, you shitty monkey-head!"

"You stupid freaking kappa! Shut the hell up!"

"What if I don't?"

"I'll tell Sanzo what you did!"

There was a thick and consisting silence before the blond monk turned to them blankly.

"Is there something I should know, Gojyo?"

"No, San—"

"Is there something I should know?"

"Come on, wha—"

"Maybe I didn't explain myself clearly enough…"

Hakkai sweat-dropped as he could feel the tension growing incredibly: he needed to find a way to get them off of this situation, otherwise there will be a very angry priest and a very dead kappa sitting in Jeep.

"Oh my! There is a town over there, can you see it Sanzo?"

They arrived at the small village surrounded by mountains in less than five minutes, but these freaking five minutes had been a hell: Goku shared few apologize-glances with Gojyo who merely smiled back, as giving a little reassurance to the boy, even though he was shivering with anticipation of what would happen once alone with the monk; Sanzo just kept staring in front of him, fuming, while Hakkai tried to cheer up the atmosphere by telling his dry jokes, with a little result… or, for better saying, with no result at all.

When Hakkai stopped Jeep in front of the only inn in town Sanzo turned back again and started staring at Goku, completely ignoring the red head.

"Tell me what the bastard did and I'll buy you anything you desire."

"Sanzo I can't…"

"Goku, spit."

"Oh, come on Sanzo, it is not such a big deal…"

"So, you smiling asshole, you know that too…"

"N-no Sanzo, it's not what I meant…it's just that I think he did nothing stupid…"

"I don't buy it, jackass… Goku tell me what the—"

"I kissed a girl." Gojyo said in a flat tone.

Sanzo just opened Jeep's door and walked off without saying a word or looking at Gojyo.

--

In the inn's room.

"Gojyo, I'm sorry…It's all my fault…"

"Monkey, don't worry… sooner or later he'd have found it out anyway…"

The redhead sat at the table, his elbows on the chipped wood of it and his head in his hands. He had messed up everything, what the hell got into him that fucking night? Ok he was drunk. Ok he found that girl pretty attractive, but come on! The whole universe, gods included, knew that he already dealt with his passion toward woman and had conveyed that the blond monk was indeed all he needed…and wanted, actually. But at that blasting bar he failed… Sanzo trusted him, Sanzo loved him and what did he do in return? He cheated. Good job indeed bastard.

"Gojyo… I don't think that sulking in this way is gonna take Sanzo back, you know…"

"Then what shall I do, Hakkai?"

"I don't really know, but Sanzo is out there, alone, it's raining and he has his golden card with him…"

"Come on, Sanzo is far too clever to do something like drinking to the last bottle in a cheap bar…"

Hakkai stared at him for a while.

"Gojyoooo, it's Sanzo!" Goku said from the bed. "He will never drink in a cheap bar, at least…" he joked.

The red head stood up, grabbed his jacket and run out the room.

--

He fucking searched almost the whole village, he was soaked to the bones and he was freezing. He entered another bar, nothing more than a room with two chairs in a corner and a bar with few seats. He got closer to it and sat down next to the only figure in the crappy place –without counting the waiter.

"I'm sorry, babe…" he whispered.

Sanzo didn't look at him but snorted loudly at the apologize.

"I was drunk and the chick had blond hair just like yours and—"

"Lame excuse, shithead…lame excuse…"

"Sanzo I—"

"Leave me the hell alone…"

"Listen to me!"

"I said leave me alone!" Sanzo fisted the wooden bar with such strength that the dirty glasses on it trembled.

"No…"

"What else do you want from me? I gave you what you asked for, and you fucking ruined everything!". The waiter jumped at the yell and stared at the two for a while. Sanzo produced some coins from his robes and left them on the bar, before heading to the door. He opened it and looked at the rain as Gojyo approached him from behind, lifting his jacket so that it covered the monk's head.

"I don't know what you may be thinking but I'm sure I don't want anything else from you, half breed…"

Gojyo let his jacket fall and closed his eyes.

"I'm begging you, Sanzo…" the blond monk lifted his eyebrows, the stupid kappa wanted to explain? Good let's hear some bullshit before stalking away.

"I was drinking my ass off because we quarreled and- do you want me to say it? Ok, fine- I wanted to hurt you. I was angry, and yes, I thought you were completely wrong and I had still in my mind your bitching about me being a cheating bastard. I just wanted to give you what seemed you wanted from me, a fucking shitty cheating bastard."

"Are you done?"

"Not quite yet…" He said leaning in to kiss Sanzo. But he stopped before reaching the pouting lips of the monk.

"Genjo Sanzo, I love you with all the fibers of my being and, if it was just possible, I'd have asked you to merry me long ago… what I did may have no excuses, I know it, but I swear that I've never suffered so much before, and never in my crappy life I've feared to loose someone like this evening, and I'm telling you that I might have kissed her but there is only one person in the world I want to make love to, maybe you know the guy…"

"Perhaps…but I don't think he's willing to let you in so easily…"

"I can put on a fight, you know…"

"You made me hurt, asshole…"

"I know, I hate my self for that…"

"You made me wander in that village, and get soaked. You made me drink like a fucking bar-goer, and deal with some perverted looking for a nice fuck. You made me think about my life, something you know I don't like that much, you made me hate my self, something you know I didn't think possible. You made me hate you and bring back memories I wanted to forget, and that would be enough to kill you. What on earth make you think that I'd allow you to even look at me ever again?"

Gojyo nodded and looked away from Sanzo, who was emotionlessly staring straight in his eyes, piercing them. The red head bit down his lips: there was this lump in his throat that threatened to find his way out, and he didn't think he could keep it down for long. He nodded again and kissed Sanzo's forehead before walking to the opposite way to the inn, he didn't feel quite in the right mood to face the others, left alone share the same room with them and the monk. It had stopped raining and he could see the moon light beneath some not-too thick clouds, he looked at it and hissed a curse.

Sanzo stared at his back. He knew Gojyo was going to turn and run to him to make up. He was sure. Maybe, being a drama queen like the red head was, he would wait to turn a round to create more suspense. Maybe he would walk a little bit more…and then come back to him, wouldn't him? Maybe…Oh fuck up. Sanzo knew he may regret it someday but he ran the short distance to Gojyo's walking form anyway.

"Hey, dipshit…"

Gojyo turned.

"…I'm the one who tells you how, when and where we're done, ok? You're not in the position to take initiatives on your own, got it?"

Gojyo smiled and turned completely to hug his lover.

I do hope you liked it...I'm fond of these two and I love writing about them, I just wish the results were as good as they should be^^

Love to everyone
