Genki Greetings and Silly Salutations, minna. Chibi Iris-chan desu.
^-^ People who have read my previous fics know what this means: this
is a weird lil' fic. *cough* *cough* Very, very weird. Do not
read if you do not possess a twisted sense of humour, are homophobic
or excessively sensitive. 6_6

This is what I would call, one of those rare M&M stories in the SM
world : Mamoru and Motoki. Hai, I can see half of the readers running
away right now and the other half staring with swirly Kenshin eyes.

^-^ With that lil' warning above in mind, read on~!

Just a Game
By Iris
_______________________________________________________________________


Chiba Mamoru was going to *explode*.

Tiny beads of perspiration dotted the sculpted upper lip of
his artistically shaped mouth. Tortured molars grinded against each
other audibly, pearly white teeth gnawing sensually on the fullness of
his lower lip.

Blood was rushing furiously through his boiling veins at
heart-attack speed - the hot, vital liquid racing through his tingling
nerve endings like burning crimson wildfire. His throbbing pulse
jack-hammered in furious, accelerated time to his galloping heartbeat;
each taut muscle in his body tensed to the point of snapping, the
cords of his neck straining, as the sorely tested raven-haired youth
frantically attempted to prevent himself from losing control.

Impatient, red-hot desire stabbed brutally with intense,
unforgiving persistence, viciously threatening to splinter the already
fragile pieces of his tenuous restraint into a million glittering
fragments of fractured, needle-sharp glass. Low, inaudible hisses of
ragged breath escaped his lips involuntarily, rigid jaw clenching to
the point of breaking, each silently rasping gasp for air forced
reluctantly from his rapidly expanding and contracting lungs.

He'd tried.

Nobody could fault him for *not* having strived his hardest to
curb his ... *unconventional* urges. He'd tried telling himself that
it wasn't wrong, that he had as much right to enjoy his guilty
pleasures as any other person, but he had to admit it'd become a ...
a habit.

Almost ... an obsession.

Perhaps it was simply the lure of the forbidden fruit - the
intoxicating, delirious feeling of flushed, fevered sin, of straying
off the usual mundane *rightness* of the straight path, of venturing,
of exploring into the murky unknown of dangerous shark-infested areas.

And then he'd become hooked.

Addicted.

_______________________________________________________________________


It had started off as almost an accident ... a carelessly
un-intentional event, before developing into mere habit, a minor
diversion that had added pleasingly dark violet edges to the gray
monotone boredom of his life.
Slowly, but almost inevitably, it had inexorably encroached
upon his unsuspecting mind, silently invading the structure he built
his routines upon, until it somehow *became* a permanent part of the
fixture - became the axis of the world that his mind revolved around,
an addiction that he fought but failed to overcome.

All his half-hearted attempts had withdrawal only had made
him even more snappy, irritable, restless than before. His usually
excellent school performance had suffered drastically, grades
plummeting disastrously to the unprecedented depths of an embarrassing
B-. A B- ! The nightmares he'd had over the shameful results of that
last Advanced Physics Paper ! Even the astonished, gloating stares of
his peers, the disappointed gaze of his professors, and the endless
cups of fragrant, freshly brewed, deathly-expensive 900 yen coffee
from Starbucks could not cure the unquenchable thirst, could not
prevent his thoughts from swirling back to the central object of his
problem.

Once he'd started, he couldn't stop.

_______________________________________________________________________


Thin, beautifully sculpted fingers, that looked as if they had
been expressly created for creating artistic masterpieces, twitched
involuntarily in a compulsive movement, trembling with the same fine
quiver that had consumed his entire body.

He'd left and tried ... experimenting ... practicing with ...
others, but somehow ... it just hadn't been right.

In the end, he'd come back here, to this place where his best
friend, the only person who could ... understand the empty, aching void
inside him, the person who'd been the initiator, the one to introduce
him to it in the first place, who was patiently waiting, subtly
beckoning, as if he'd somehow known all along that Mamoru would return,
unable to resist ... incapable of refusing Furuhata Motoki's ... offer
to ... *help* ... with his obsession.

Mamoru knew that Motoki was ... experienced .... a *true*
veteran in all senses of the word, both skillful master and patient
teacher who'd had plenty of colorful experience, who knew expert tricks
with his hands that Mamoru had never even heard of ...

Then again ... Motoki had always had the damnedest good luck.

It slid into the curl of his sweat-slicked palm smoothly, hard
and firm to the touch.

His already labored breathing turned randomly chaotic, smoky
blue eyes burning with the fevered passion of a true junkie, glazed
azure pupils dilating as the slowly accumulated weeks of repressed
desire threatened to overwhelm his control and sweep his excitement
over the ever-so-precarious Edge of No Return.

Sensitive ears pricked at the quick intake of hot, raspy
breath right behind him, the hairs at the back of his neck standing
on ends, prickling as he felt the pulsing waves of almost tangible
intensity radiating from Motoki.

" Damnit, you're ... so close, Mamoru-kun ... don't ... stop
now ... just ... do it ... slowly ... "

The sound of Motoki's voice, excited and breathless, and the
wispy, ticklishly sensual touch of warm breath lightly titillating
sensitive skin, so close, was almost enough to send him over the edge.

His grip tightened involuntarily, jerking the shaft downwards
slightly, and Motoki immediately hissed, every muscle in his body
tensing as if in unbearable pain. " Chi ... chigau yo, Mamoru ! Not
.. so ... rough. Do it ... again ... gently ... "

" Go ... gomen ... " Mamoru replied breathlessly, dark brows
furrowed as he struggled once again to control his rising rampant
passion and over-eager desire to just ... just ...

[ Just Do it. ]

Heart pounding ...
blood burning ...
breath ragged ...

Thought processes screeched to a traffic-jam grinding
STOP.

[ To hell with Control. ]

Mamoru went for it.

[ Fifteen minutes later ]


" ..... "

" ..... "

[ Silence. ]

" Oh come on, Mamoru. " The lanky, green-eyed blonde had that
familiar, indulgently patronizing tone in his voice again as he wrapped
sinewy arms consolingly around the neck of his dark-haired friend in a
Comforting-Fellow-Guy Head-Lock. " It's not that serious. I mean, even
I do it sometimes. And I'm a pro. "

" ..... "

[ Silence. ]

" Hora, Mamoru-kun. "

[ Silence. ]

" I'll give you mine if it's THAT important to you. "

.

.
.

" I don't want YOURS !! "

[ Screaming. ]

" I want HIM to be MINE !! I WANT HIM !! I WANT HIM !!!
WHY CAN'T I GET HIM ??!!! DOOOOOUUUUUSHITE ??!! "

[ Swearing. ]

Dozens of curious eyes stared, as the handsome yet obviously
demented raven-haired youth pounded frantically at the bullet proof
plastic cover of the plushie-toy crane machine, anguished blue eyes
fixed unblinkingly at the seemingly unachievable object of his
desire :


The Chibi Tuxedo Kamen Plushie.
Limited Edition.


" Relax, Mamoru. Relax. " Motoki cooed soothingly in his best
imitation of a maternal tone as he stepped back and patted his student
on the back, choosing his next words with indolent deliberation.

" After all, it's Just a Game. "

[ Sweatdrop. ]
