For EnmaCho's sake... tell him already!


He found his self back in Meifu. Kurikara thought that yesterday would be the last time he would be called, with the exemption of life and death situations where Hisoka really needs his powers and this certainly wasn't one of those. He was slightly irritated, but he was also curious as to what happened yesterday.

"Well?"

"I wasn't able to talk to him."

*veins* "Don't tell me you got scared!?"

"No, but yesterday was a bit... inappropriate to tell him about it." Hisoka said as he remembered what he saw yesterday.

"How so?"

"etou... un... etou..."

"Will you stop that!?" *more veins*

"Well... ISAWTATSUMIKISSINGTSUZUKIYESTERDAY."

"WHAT!?" *veins and more veins*

"I said, 'ISAWTATSUMIKISSINGTSUZUKIYESTERDAY!'"

"Are you trying to infuriate me!?"

A very long sigh escaped Hisoka's lips. "I caught Tatsumi and Tsuzuki in a kiss yesterday."

"See, how difficult is it to pause between words!? So that's why."

Kurikara's reaction wasn't what Hisoka expected. Hisoka suspected that Kurikara would do something terrible, like murder Tsuzuki and even Tatsumi.

"Isn't Tatsumi your secretary?"

"Yes."

Kurikara turned and walked for the door.

"Kurikara, where are you going?"

"Kill someone." Came a casual replied.

That made Hisoka jump forward and grab Kurikara by the hair. Hisoka, still holding Kurikara's hair, dragged him and slumped his shikigami on the chair. The shikigami was too stunned by the shinigami's sudden supremacy that he was not able to struggle.

"There's no need for that!"

"Yes there is!"

Hisoka was trying to stifle his laughter.

The brat is losing it!? "OI!? OI!?"

Getting back his composure. "I didn't know you could be over protective. If you kill Tsuzuki now I wouldn't be able to talk to him."

Kurikara snorted. "Don't worry, I'm going to leave them both half dead. How could you be so calm about it? Weren't you even jealous!?"

"I know I should be but I don't know why I'm not."

"You humans still confuse me!" Kurikara stood and again made his way for the door.

"Hey! Didn't I told you that..."

"You made yourself clear. An order is an order. Don't worry I won't be murdering anyone today. I'm just going to look around. You've been calling me here for how many times already and you haven't even showed me the place."

"What if I couldn't say it?"

"Weren't it you humans who said that 'Action speaks louder that words'. If you can't tell him just grab him and kiss him. I'm sure that will get your message across." Kurikara said and exited the room.

Hisoka felt his cheeks burn. Easier said than done.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

Tsuzuki was glad that something good came out from yesterday's events, though it his distress level three levels higher. Being the subject in the workplace was what Tsuzuki wouldn't want to handle right now, so rather than to talk with the other shinigami's about what happened yesterday besides he doesn't want to be the one to leak it out unless he wants to be devoured by his own shadow or experimentally turned into something he doesn't know.

At first Tsuzuki felt like it was his best option until he received a serious scolding from Suzaku, murderous glares from SohRyu, a long lecture from Genbu and strangling from Byakko. Tsuzuki hoped that it wouldn't get worst, but he spoke too soon, because Kurikara came in.

"So this is the lounge." Kurikara said not bothering to greet the others. It seems like he hasn't even noticed them or chose to ignore them.

"Yo! Kurikara, what are you doing here?" Byakko curiously asked.

"Looking around. The kid had never showed me the place yet."

Tsuzuki was a little bit nervous with Kurikara and RyuOh in the same room. They may have settled their misunderstanding, but they still quarrel a lot and be a little bit destructive when it happens.

Politely as ever but steaming with authority RyuOh spoke. "Why did Hisoka-kun called you?"

Kurikara pulled one of the chairs and sat. "Talk. It's been our routine for almost a month."

"So this is where you've been disappearing to every morning." Genbu said.

"What about? I mean what are you and Hisoka talking about?"

Kurikara turned his eyes on Suzaku. "Can't tell. I've sworn to secrecy."

That made four pairs of eyes to glower at Tsuzuki. "We have an idea." They said at the same time.

Tsuzuki cringed and fidgeted on his chair. He was choosing between hiding under the table or leaving the lounge. He chose the latter and found it extremely difficult not to trip and fall as he made his way to the door with ten eyes staring and shooting daggers at him.

Right after Tsuzuki closed the door Genbu and Kurikara followed.

SohRyu's eyebrow arched up. "Where are you two going?"

"Aren't you interested to find out what will happen?" The old shikigami chirpily replied.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

Tsuzuki turned the doorknob and opened the door. He caught Hisoka standing at the opposite side of the door in the act of opening the door himself with 2 hardbound books tucked in his arms.

"O...O..." He was stunned and that made him lose his ability to speak.

"Ohayo!" Hisoka greeted him with a heartfelt smile that only Tsuzuki is allowed to see. "I brought you some blueberry cheesecake and cinnamon rolls. They're at your desk. I'm on my way to the library. I have to return these books, they're due today. Kachou said we don't have a mission and Tatsumi hasn't brought any reports to write, so I guess we're kind of free today. "

Hisoka's waiting for him to say something, but Tsuzuki remained rooted at his place still incapable to speak. "Umm... Ah... Can..."

"You could come with me if you want, as long as you don't blow up the library again."

"HAI!"

Hisoka's suggestion made Tsuzuki animated. He cheerfully followed Hisoka to the library.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

The five Shikigami's were hiding behind a wall. When the two were out of sight, it was Suzaku who spoke first.

"Hisoka's really good. Hmm... It seems like everything's back to normal."

"Which is bad." Byakko added.

"eh?"

"Those two are pretty good in deceiving each other. When they feel like everything's okay they'd prefer to leave it at that, they're both afraid of making the other uncomfortable." SohRyu answered for Byakko.

"Which would leave everything unsettled." Genbu said.

"They're hopeless! I wish they could be more like that Muraki, assertive, aggressive and...."

Kurikara snorted at what Suzaku was saying. "Sociopath. Then they'll never be together."

The four Shiki sweatdropped with Kurikara's undeniably true remark.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

Nothing's more eye-catching in Meifu than Tsuzuki and Hisoka being secretly followed by five Shikis. Wakaba, Terazuma, Saya, and Yuma are curious what the five were up to in following Tsuzuki and Hisoka. They were choosing who to ask between Genbu, Suzaku or Byakko. The two unfriendly Shikis (SohRyu and RyuOh) were automatically ruled out.

They pulled Byakko. Quickly, he explained to them why they were following the two. He also asked them if they wanted to tag along. Byakko need not ask them to come.

Nine shadows are now tailing Tsuzuki and Hisoka.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

Inside the secretary's office, various moans and groans could be heard. Completely preoccupied with their current activity, they remain unaware of the events outside. (Author: I'll leave the ecchi thoughts to you! :p)

If Tatsumi finds out that everyone abandoned their work to spy on Tsuzuki and Hisoka, hell would break loose! They should be grateful to Watari for keeping Tatsumi extremely busy.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

They were nearing the library and they were still not speaking to each other. A blissful silence. Its been long since they got this comfy when they were not squabbling or talking.

If not now, when!? Putting all his will and strength on his vocal cords. "Nah, Hisoka, could we go to the garden? Please? Pretty, pretty please!?" He begged Hisoka in chibi inu form.

Hisoka, from the start, has never been immune to inu Tsuzuki's begging. He always gives in to his partner's wishes, even when he wants to object or feels irritated. And right now if Tsuzuki asked him to sleep with him, the answer is yes, without a doubt.

"Sure."

He felt like turning into a puddle when Hisoka said yes.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

"anou... Seiichirou, do you hear anything?"

"No."

"Well?"

Tightening his arms embrace around Watari, "What?"

"Aren't you even curious?" Watari propped himself on his elbow so he could directly at Tatsumi. "For one, there was no Tsuzuki who barged in to complain or to simply annoy you, no Hisoka shouting too. Second, this workplace has never been this quiet unless there's something keeping the others busy, which might be spying at us right now. And lastly, aren't you even bothered if the people in your paycheck may not be working at this moment?"

Tatsumi's eyes twitched at Watari's mention of 'not working'. "We'll go check."

Tatsumi had already pulled Watari up and was pulling Watari towards the door when Watari noticed their state of clothing. Watari shrieked when Tatsumi turned the doorknob.

"NOT IN THE NUDE!"

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

The five shikis were determined to have Hisoka and Tsuzuki settled, so they want to make sure that no one or anything bothers the two.

SohRyu heard very faint sounds of footsteps and two voices coming from opposite directions. "Someone's coming. One from the right and two from the left."

Byakko and Suzaku disappeared to silence the three beings that dare to disturb. They returned with two chickens and an old man tied with duct tapes on their mouth and a bump on their heads.

The shinigamis with them went into panic when they saw their Kachou tied and out cold.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

"ehem... why is everyone out here?" Tatsumi asked the group hiding behind a sakura tree.

All the shinigamis, even Konoe Kachou, froze like stones, they didn't even dared to turn and meet the I-will-dock-everyone's-pay look in the secretary's eyes.

"Ooh~ Look Sei... Tatsumi," Watari almost called him by his first name, "it looks like Tsuzuki and Hisoka are having a serious conversation."

Watari and Tatsumi were hoping that Watari's slight slip would go unnoticed.

Unfortunately, Konoe chose not to let the opportunity (may be the first and the last) to get back at Tatsumi for the continuous decrease of their allowance and Watari for using anyone as his experiment subject to pass.

"Tatsumi, how come I didn't see you check on everyone earlier? And both of you look flush, the kind of flush you get after a particular vi..."

"Kachou, you mean..." Terazuma, Wakaba, Saya, Yuma and the Gushoushin brothers' eyes turned into saucers, while Tatsumi and Watari burned red.

"The Scrooge and the Mad Scientist!" The Gushoushins chorused while shaking their heads in disbelief. "Unbelievable! We thought it wasn't possible!"

"So I've won the bet! Pay up you three." Terazuma ordered Wakaba, Yuma and Saya.

"How could we have failed to notice it?" The three ladies still can't believe that their female instinct had failed them.

"Why didn't we feel those two sneak behind us?" Byakko asked Genbu.

"Have you forgotten that the secretary is a shadow master?"

"Shut up!" Kurikara said gritting his teeth in annoyance.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

"Since when were they following us?"

"I thought you'd never notice."

"HIDOI!" Tsuzuki turned into a chibi inu who tried to look hurt with Hisoka's insult.

Hisoka did his best at glaring at Tsuzuki, stopping Tsuzuki in completing his bruised puppy transformation.

"Are we really that entertaining?" Hisoka asked Tsuzuki with a faint blush creeping on his cheeks.

Tsuzuki grinned at him. "I guess so. But I wouldn't allow their presence prevent me from doing my task."

"Which is?"

Tsuzuki looked at Hisoka confused making Hisoka let out an exasperated sigh. "Your current task?"

"Oh that! To have a long proper uninterrupted conversation with you no matter what." Tsuzuki replied with his trademark face-tearing grin.

Hisoka couldn't help but smile timidly. "Baka!" He really is contagious.

-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-

"I have a present for you from Saya and Yuma." He handed several paper bags to Hisoka. "I already know what's inside the bags and I highly recommend you not to see them now."

Hisoka choked after hearing that Saya and Yuma brought presents for him.

"Are you alright?" Tsuzuki asked with worry and concern.

"I'm not sure. What are the presents exactly?"

"A skimpy black see-through dress, high heeled shoes, and a lingerie."

Hisoka had now turned green. After a good 30 minutes he had finally recovered from the shock.

"Hisoka?"

"hn?"

"What have you been doing for the past 2 days?"

"Mope and cry." Came Hisoka's honest reply.

"Yay! So I wasn't the only one! You know something interesting happened yesterday after you left Watari in his office." Hisoka didn't ask what happened but he made no attempt to stop Tsuzuki from telling him yesterday's events Hisoka simply look attentively at Tsuzuki and Tsuzuki took it as a sign for him to continue. "When you caught Tatsumi kissing me..."

( >>The people hiding behind the sakura tree were shocked minus the shikigamis and Tatsumi and Watari. Their eyes immediately turned into saucers and eyed Tatsumi. As if the revelation of Tatsumi and Watari's relationship isn't unbelievable enough, now this. Interesting. They could not await for Tsuzuki to finish. Their conclusion: There's more to Tatsumi than meets the eye and ledgers.

>>Hundreds of veins suddenly graze Tatsumi's forehead. He wants to leap forward and strangle Tsuzuki, if Watari wasn't holding him firmly and preventing him from doing so. )

"You were too ashamed to look me in the eye."

"Of course! Who wouldn't be? That was completely embarrassing Hisoka! Tatsumi completely caught me off guard! First..."

(>>Suzaku and Byakko slapped their forehead in dismay.

>>"Oh dear! Tsuzuki's blabbering." Suzaku said.

>>Genbu eyed SohRyu. "You should given him a better advise than 'do it your way but remember to be honest and be spontaneous'."

>>"I didn't know that this is his way." SohRyu replied

>>"You overestimated him." Gushoushins commented.

>>Byakko faced Kurikara and asked, "What advise did you gave Hisoka? I hope its better than SohRyu's."

>>"You'll see." Kurikara answered with a smug smirk. )

"...I was just seeking his advice then the next thing I know his lips are on mine then you and Watari have to come busting in! I haven't recovered yet from the shock then came another shock. But the truth is there's another reason why I couldn't look at you then." Tsuzuki said all in one breath at record speed, "Then Watari shut the door before Tatsumi could even explain anything."

Hisoka noticed that Tsuzuki's starting to turn blue. "Tsuzuki, there's nothing wrong in breathing." He never choked and passed out from stuffing his mouth with sweets, it would be a wonder if he passes out from talking too fast.

Tsuzuki's mouth turned into an o before smiling sheepishly. "Right! Anyway, I heard them shouting at each other and I'm sure that Watari was throwing things at Tatsumi. After several minutes I saw Tatsumi carrying an unconscious Watari to the infirmary."

"What happened?"

"Tatsumi didn't told me, but he was blushing so I concluded that he did something... e... ec..."

"Ecchi, the word is ecchi Tsuzuki."

"he.he.he... he did something ecchi to Watari which caused Watari to faint. I came with them to the infirmary and warned Tatsumi not to take advantage of Watari's helplessness. Hey! You didn't blush when you said the word ecchi! Try saying hentai!"

( >>"Idiot!" Tatsumi, Kurikara, Genbu, Suzaku, SohRyu, Terazuma, Konoe and Gushoushins said in unison. )

"BAKA!" Hisoka's cheeks are now burning red.

"I left them for awhile to do something important. When I returned I heard Watari's laughter. The best part was when I opened the door. They were on the floor with Watari on top of Tatsumi! I decided to leave them alone and to make sure no one would disturb them I hanged a 'DO NOT DISTURB' sign outside the door."

( >>"Good thing no one got injured yesterday or else..." Konoe said.

>>"The scene would have been traumatizing!" Terazuma continued.

>>"Yuma, I think we should come back to the office more often."

>>"Yes, yes, we should. Kannuki-chan, if we are not here to witness further developments could you video them for us? Please?"

>>"Sure."

>>"So that's what the kid missed yesterday." Kurikara said.

>>"Hisoka-kun did missed a lot." Genbu added.

>>"Tsuzuki could be really unfair sometimes. He kept that detail from us." Byakko complained.

>>"What about what happened today?" Suzaku teasingly asked a crimson Tatsumi and Watari.

>>"More interesting, right? You two could be very loud." SohRyu flatly added. Watari and Tatsumi dearly wanted to disappear from everyone's sight.

>>"Hajime-kun we still have that hidden camera installed in Tatsumi's office right?"

>>"Yes. Why?"

>>"KANNUKI-CHAN! WE WANT TO WATCH TOO!" Saya and Yuma singsong together.

>>"Why do you have a spy camera in my office?" Tatsumi glared at Terazuma.

>>"Well, we've been curious with what you do inside your office the whole time."

>>"Quiet down people!" The Gushoushins ordered. )

"Hisoka, could I ask you something?"

"Go on."

"Two days ago I accidentally saw Kurikara kissed you. Are you...?" Tsuzuki failed to finish the question.

( >>Tsuzuki's shikigamis wolf-whistled.

>>"That explains why you've been pushing Hisoka away. You were afraid that others would know that you are in love with a human much more your own master." Genbu concluded.

>>Kurikara wanted to kill someone, anyone. )

"No, you idiot! There's nothing going on between me and Kurikara. We just talked. He never kissed me and since when did you develop the habit of eavesdropping?"

"Sorry. I got curious so I peaked in and listened then I saw him leaning towards you."

"And from your angle it looked like he was kissing me. Baka!" Hisoka let out a long sigh.

"Sorry. Neh, could you possibly talk about with Kurikara that you can't with me?"

"YOU! I can't talk about you with you, can I? That would be awkward. Besides how could I seek solution from the root of my problem."

Tsuzuki is now making a perfect imitation of a blowfish. "ME!? Sorry."

"Stop apologizing, will you?" Hisoka asked while giving Tsuzuki one of his brightest smile ever.

"HAI! Hisoka... I... I..." Tsuzuki started stammering.

( >>"HERE IT COMES!" The spying group chorused. )

"You don't have to say it if you can't."

"But I have to! I need to! If I can't say it why don't you say it to me? We could say it together if you like." Tsuzuki playfully teased Hisoka.

"WHAT!? MAKE ME!" Hisoka challenged with a glare.

Tsuzuki pouted. He looks like an abandoned puppy whose sweets were stolen by some sadistic lunatic. All of a sudden Tsuzuki felt himself loosing balance and falling forward. The truth was Hisoka was pulling his tie causing him to lean forward. He was still completely unaware of what was happening until he felt something soft pressed against his lips. He blinked and blinked before he realized that Hisoka had pulled him into a kiss.

( >>Suzaku, Genbu and Byakko patted Kurikara.

>>"Kurikara, I never imagined that you were the romantic type." Suzaku teased.

>>Saya and Yuma are now clinging onto Kurikara much to his annoyance. "That was your advise to Hisoka-chan? So sweet of you~ *heart heart*"

>>SohRyu was very much speechless. Konoe was smirking. Tatsumi and Watari were making out. Wakaba was fanning an unconscious Terazuma. )
