Otogi's car was by the door, and he smiled at it. "Hey, babe, I missed you."
Honda blinked. "You missed your car?"
"Hell yea; she's my girl," Otogi purred opening the driver's side door and climbing it. Honda followed suit, putting on his seatbelt and staring out the windshield. Yea. Otogi's girl – that could explain a lot right there.
Girls.
Honda never had been very girly. Well, unless he counted the number of times Jou told him that he fought like a girl, but they had been wrestling then, so he didn't think too much of it. It hadn't even occurred to him that Otogi might have preferred girls… he was just so girly himself sometimes. Especially when it came to getting dirty; he may have talked a lot of shit, but he could be as prissy as Mai some days. Actually, those two might have gotten on well…
The car came to life, and Otogi grinned. He reached for his CDs, flipping through them carefully, looking for something. "Oh!" he said happily, taking out a homemade CD and putting it in. A song started – a mellow song. "What kind of music do you like?"
Honda shrugged. "I don't listen to music much; it doesn't matter to me."
"Pity," Otogi added. "So what's the plan for Yuugi's house anyway?"
"I don't know."
The air was thick between them, uncomfortable despite the banter. Otogi looked around before pulling out of the parking lot. "So I haven't seen you all week – been okay?"
Do you give a damn? Honda shrugged again. He seemed to be doing a lot of that. "No different than any other week, I suppose."
"Ah. Shit, listen to this; it's a good song." The beat was rhythmic, even a bit repetitive. It might have been soothing if not for the innuendo of the words themselves… and the fact that Otogi was singing along merrily, smile on his face. "C'mon and gimme some, why don't you c'mon and gimme some?" He had a nice singing voice.
But all Honda could think to do was smile sarcastically and respond bitterly, "Because you said no."
