~ Shopping (Part 1) ~
Katan was pacing outside Raphael's door. He looked worried. He had a big problem and only Raphael could help him, but he also knew about Raphael's price for 'help', and the price was often…unusual.
Katan took a deep breath, thinking, this is all for Rosiel-sama, I'll do it. He then knocked on the door a few times. Total silence. He knock again. And again. At last, at the umpteenth time, the door opened and looking at him with a sleepy expression was Raphael. Half-naked, with his hair slightly tousled.
"Why, it's you, Katan. Ohayo," Raphael was grinning like a Chesiere Cat.
"O..Ohayo, Raphael-san."
"Come on in," Raphael pushed the door wide open and gestured Katan into the house.
Katan followed Raphael into what he assumed was the bedroom. There, on the bed, was a woman, eyes closed in deep sleep, lips murmuring 'Raphael-sama' from time to time.
"What brought you here so early in the morning?" Raphael asked, putting on a shirt.
It was already past lunchtime, but Katan let that comment pass.
"I…I need your help," he said softly.
"My help? Why?"
Katan gulped. He really didn't want to ask Raphael for help but for Rosiel-sama's sake…….so, gathering his courage, Katan asked the million-dollar question.
"Do you have any medicine that can prevent nosebleeds?"
"Nani? Why would you want that kind of medicine?" Raphael asked incredulously. Then taking a close look at Katan he said "Ah, wait! I think I know why….probably something to do with Rosiel-sama, ne?"
"Please? I really, really need that medicine." Katan cursed himself for that uncharacteristic pleaing. But, for Rosiel-sama's sake…… "I'll do anything to have it."
"Anything?" This was getting interesting for Raphael.
A big sweat drop appear on Katan's head as he realized his mistake. "Anything, except Rosiel-sama," he quickly added. Especially when he's so kawaii in his chibi form now!
The Raphael's grin faltered a little. Damn, he cursed silently. Damn, damn, damn. But, never mind, he consoled himself. If I can't have the best one, I'll settle for the second best. And the second best one is………*grin*.
On seeing the grin, Katan prayed fervently, I am not a girl, I am not a girl. Raphael won't like me, he won't like me……
"I'll tell you the price later. Now, will you please wait outside while I get the medicine?" the archangel turned his back to Katan and started rummaging in a cupboard. Katan went out of the house and started pacing anxiously. Will he really give me the medicine? It seemed to easy… Four steps towards the door, four steps towards the gate. Why is he taking such a long time? Four steps towards the door, four steps towards the gate. Four steps towards the-
"Sorry to keep you waiting," Raphael appeared suddenly, suprising Katan. Then, as Katan's mind registered the fact that there was no sign oif any medicine on the Raphael's body, the archangel moved forward, sneaked a hand to the back of Katan's neck, leaned his head forward and gave Katan one hot kiss right smack on the lips.
Katan was too shocked to do anything. Noooo!!! My lips are only for Rosiel-sama!!! Iyaaa!!! Yamete!!!!
Then the archangel pulled back, licked his lips once and said-
"You're cured. I'll collect the price later." And he slammed the door shut right at katan's bewilded face.
~ Later~
"Rosiel-sama, shall we go shopping?" Katan asked chibi Rosiel-sama politely.
"Shopping? For what? I'm too busy for that," answered the chibi angel, standing on his chair and trying to reach the stack of documents just out of his reach.
Katan handed chibi Rosiel-sama the documents and said-
"Well, you need new clothes, Rosiel-sama. You can't possibly wear those clothes forever." Katan subtly pointed out the chibi's current outfit – casual shirt and pants rolled up a hundred times with the shirt constantly slipping of one shoulder because the collar was too big. As for the pants…… better not to comment on that. A far cry from his usual clothing.
"There are no children's clothing stores in Heaven, Katan."
"Well, we can always go to earth to get some clothing."
Chibi Rosiel-sama gave Katan a death glare. " I will not remain like this for long. Besides, I do not want to wear human kid's clothing. Have you ever notice how they dress their offsprings? Horrible bows and ties and the worst colour combination in all heaven, earth and hell." The chibi shuddered, imagining some of the children's outfits he had seen.
"Don't worry, Rosiel-sama. I'll make sure you get some beautiful clothes."
Chibi Rosiel-sama sat down and thought deeply. I really don't want to go to earth today……there are too many humans there for my comfort……and I'm in a bad enough mood already……I don't want to see dirty humans today……But, sneaking a lot at Katan who was looking at him with pleading eyes, Katan seems to really want to go……and he is sooo nice to me……so……
"All right, Katan. I'll go with you. But only because it's you." And he went out of the room with an overjoyed Katan behind him. They both stepped into the portal and poof! their shopping spree in the human world began.
