"Tokio?"
She sniffed, and looked at the door. Goro stood there, leaning against the wall. He was smiling slightly, and asked, "Are you mad?"
She pouted, and turned away, folding her arms, "Yes. Now go away, before I kick your @$$."
He came behind her anyways, and slowly sat himself down. He exhaled after the painful task was done, and looked at her, "Seriously, you're going to stay like this the whole night?"
She pouted at him again, eyes furrowed, "How could you do this?!! How can you take another job, you just got home!! You're.... you're hurt and everything, why do you want to leave again?"
"I have to."
She sighed, running her finger over her scalp and through her hair, "Fine, get yourself killed. Leaves more food for me to eat around the house."
He smiled, and gently rubbed her shoulder with his left hand, "See how lucky you are?"
She slowly tuned to him, a playful smirk in place, "Yep, I am. Once your gone, all the boys will be flocking back to me!!" she giggled, and crawled over to him. He didn't mind when she gently lay her cheek on his bandages over his chest. She sighed, "So! How long do you have?"
"You forgive me that easily?"
"Well......" she looked down, "If you really do................ I mean, you came close to dying, didn't you, Goro?"
He looked down at her. "No. I was just more tired than usual."
She giggled, half heartedly, "Conceited jerk. Anyways, why should I stay mad at you?" she had a light smile, and she looked up at him, eyes trembling, "I mean, you could die any day! Why should I hold a grudge on you?"
He didn't say anything. she sniffed, and closed her eyes, rubbing her cheek gingerly on his chest. "Before you go off again on another suicide mission, I wanna tell you how soft and warm you feel. Mmkay?"
He gently ran his fingers through her bangs, "I'll come back to you, Tokio. I always do. So don't talk that way."
"What if you get ..........." she giggled, "What if you get careless again, like this?" she asked, gently tapping his bandages on his shoulder, "What will you do then?"
He smirked, and pushed his forehead on hers, "Walk, run, swim, crawl or jump home if I have to. Like I did just now."
She laughed, "You swam?"
"No. It was raining, and that counts, moron."
She kissed his cheek, "Dork. You almost had me worried tonight, you know?"
"Crying counts as 'almost worried'?"
She sniffed again, and whispered, "I was thinking........ how much I was going to miss that ugly smell of smoke that lingers on your skin if you died." She gently ran traced her fingers on his shin down to his neck to his chest, "Not many guys smoke, you know. Too expensive to get the foreign tobacco."
"I buy just as much as you buy candy."
"Yeah, but candy doesn't leave a smell on you!"
"You're right. That stench must be your own."
She shoved him, "JERK!!"
He grit his teeth, hands on his wounds, and she gasped, "Oh, I'm SORRY!! SO SORRY!!"
He rubbed his chest, and thought, 'Now I know what the Battousai goes through with that Kamiya tanooki...........'
She sniffed, "Are you okay?"
"No. I'm dying now."
She pouted, "Oh, shut up, you baby!!"
He rubbed his chest, and laid down, "Think I'll just put myself to rest right here."
She watched him shift around in the futon, and close his eyes. She grinned, and climbed into bed right next to him, snuggling next to him, "Say, if ya heal real fast, we can, you know............do what you do best, besides killing.............."
He smiled, "Yare yare, such impure thoughts."
THE END
**Yep. This fic trailed off into nothing. Sorry to waste your time and all.
