/ thoughts / [ dreams ] (
flashbacks )
::*~~*::
Hisoka stared at the light that was making a puddle on his bedroom floor while he still laid in bed. He had just awoken from a horrible nightmare, one where the naive and hyper Tsuzuki would hurt him physically and mentally.
"But..." the boy whispered to no one, "Tsuzuki would never do that to me." He sat up slowly, crossing his hands in his lap and staring at them. "Besides... he and I aren't in that kind of relationship. He has no reason to do that to me..."
He stood up and
began to get ready. Thoughts of his nightmare swirled around in his head as he
tried to place some meaning to it. Why would he dream such an awful thing? He
had dreamt of being with Tsuzuki before. That wasn't a new dream to him in the
slightest. But never had Tsuzuki been so violent and uncaring in his nightly
visions. He was his sweet self, the man that Hisoka would make fun of but still
held silent respect for.
His thoughts weren't important
right now, though. It was all just part
of a bad dream, one that he was going to put aside. There was no reason to think on such a depressing topic,
anyway. He had a day of work to keep
his mind occupied. That was much better
than thinking about Tsuzuki and that damnned knife...
"What do you think of this new
case, Hisoka?" Tsuzuki asked cheerfully, laying his head down on his desk. "Sounds easy, ne?"
Hisoka nodded solemnly, as was
his way. He sat at his on desk, arms
crossed, looking at an invisible spot on his desk. He wasn't paying much attention to Tsuzuki but instead was thinking
about that dream he had had the previous night. He knew he should've been putting it out of his mind, but
something about it seemed like some omen that he found himself pondering on it
often during the day.
"Oi, Hisoka..." Tsuzuki put his head on his hands and leaned
towards the quiet boy.
"What, Tsuzuki?"
"You okay? You've been a little more withdrawn than
normal..." His purple eyes showed
concern in them.
Hisoka hesitated for a
moment. He was half-way tempted to tell
him about his strange dream, but reconsidered it, thinking that Tsuzuki would
maybe ask him why it was he that he was dreaming about. The whole dream would bring upon too many
questions that Hisoka had no desire to answer.
"I'm fine."
Tsuzuki looked like he was
about to say something else, but instead shook his head, and began to type on
his computer.
Hisoka considered to go ahead
and leave for the day. He wasn't
feeling particularly social(more so than normal) and was just bored out of his
mind. There was barely anyone in the
office for some reason... It was near
the end of the day, but there was normally at least three people still left by
now. Where had everyone gone?
Watari was in his lab, working
on something. Tatsumi was off doing his
own thing, and everyone else just seemed to have dropped off the face of
Meifu.
Tsuzuki broke the silence with
his whining suddenly. Hisoka turned to
him, scowl on his face. "What are you
complaining about now, Tsuzuki?"
Tsuzuki pointed to the
screen. "It's not being friendly to
me..." He looked like he was about to
cry.
Hisoka rolled his eyes and
stood up, stepping behind Tsuzuki and looking over his shoulder. "What's it doing?"
The man sniffed as he said,
"Blue screen of death..."
Hisoka reached over and
pressed the 'enter' key, taking the screen back to the bright and cheerful
wallpaper that had sunflowers on it.
"It's that easy to take care of, Tsuzuki."
"But it does it a lot..."
Tsuzuki replied. Within a split-second
of saying this, the blue screen popped up.
"See!"
Hisoka leaned forward a bit
more, putting his hand on the back of the man's chair and taking a hold of the
mouse from Tsuzuki's grip. Tsuzuki
looked at him, confused by his sudden closeness as the boy's face was close to
his now.
"I think it just isn't its
day. Just turn it off for now and worry
about it tomorrow. If it's still being
evil, we can get Watari to look at it.
Sound good?"
Tsuzuki didn't answer. The scent of Hisoka was driving him
nuts. He was so close to him, but
couldn't do anything about it...
Hisoka turned to him when he
didn't answer. "Tsuzuki? That okay?"
Tsuzuki snapped out of his
trance and shook his head slightly.
"Yeah, that sounds good..." He
went silent again, watching the child in front of him.
The light-haired teen felt a
little awkward under Tsuzuki's purple gaze.
"Is something the matter...?"
Tsuzuki reached up and softly
touched Hisoka's cheek as he leaned in.
His mind had no say in what was going on as he was led by instinct to do
what he felt would be right. So he
kissed the boy he had been desiring for a long time now. And it did feel right. Until he realised Hisoka wasn't kissing
back.
He pulled away quickly,
setting his hand on his knee and turning his gaze from him. "I'm sorry... I... I thought you
might... want me to..."
Hisoka stared at him blankly,
not knowing exactly how to respond. He
wondered what could have possessed Tsuzuki to do something like that, but he
wasn't about to complain. Hadn't he
been dreaming of this for so long? What
was wrong about acting out your desires?
So why didn't he return the kiss?
And why was he letting Tsuzuki get up and leave with a mumbled excuse to
go?
"Tsuzuki," Hisoka said
sternly, making the man stop dead in his tracks. "Why are you leaving?"
"Because... because..." He wasn't sure what to say. Because it was awkward to be in the same
room as the person he just kissed who didn't kiss him back? That was a valid reason. It wouldn't sound as good if he actually
said it aloud, though.
Hisoka moved so he was in
front of the man, looking into his eyes.
He was silent a moment before placing his hands on either sides of
Tsuzuki's face and drawing him closer.
"'Because' isn't good enough for me, Tsuzuki," he said gently, his
breath mixing with the elder Shinigami's.
It was full of emotions Tsuzuki had never heard Hisoka use. It surprised him. "And I don't think you should leave. Not yet..."
The boy then kissed Tsuzuki, a
very chaste kiss that slowly grew more passionate as the man put his arms
around him and pulled him closer.
/ This is one dream I don't
mind coming true... / Hisoka thought, thoughts drifting very briefly to his
nightmare the night before. He pulled
away from Tsuzuki, his hands still on the other's face, and stared into his
bright purple eyes. He had a small
smile on his face.
A snickering made the two
separate quickly. Watari was in the
doorway with a knowing smirk on his face.
"About time, you know."
Well, that sucked. I'm much better at the angst stuff than the cheesy stuff. More angst next part! Squee! *giggles*
