Smoking is Dangerous for the Health
by virgo-princess93
"Hey Ban-chan," said Ginji suddenly, as he watched Ban pull a cigarette out along with his lighter.
"What Ginji?" replied Ban as he flicked open the lighter in a smooth, practiced gesture.
"Why do you smoke?" asked Ginji curiously
"Because I want to," was the answer that was given to him
"Why Ban-chan? I want a REAL answer this time!" he whined, in chibi-form.
"Why do you even want to know?" Ban turned to look at his partner.
"I won't tell you if you won't tell me." Ginji also turned to look at Ban.
After looking at him hard for a few seconds, Ban sighed and said, "I think that it's because of Yamato. He was the one who taught me how to smoke in the first place," a smirk appeared on his face, "Heck, he taught me ALL the possible vices in this world. Gambling, smoking, stealing, drinking, you name it."
He stopped there and turned to face his partner again. "Now tell me why you even thought of asking."
Ginji didn't answer the question. Instead, he said, "You could have stopped smoking if you wanted to. Why didn't you?"
"Probably because of habit and addiction. Besides, if I didn't, what use would Yamato's lighter be for?" he answered, waving the lighter in front of Ginji's nose. "Your turn."
"I think I asked because I, uh, sort of wanted you to stop and..." Ginji replied slowly
"And?"
"And because of that advertisement I saw yesterday in TV, when you were arguing with Hevn at the Honky Tonk."
"What did it say?"
Ginji turned to face his best friend and smiled before saying,
"Did you know that smoking is dangerous for your health?"
Heh, a little ficlet inspired by a Marlboro commercial. Hope you liked it! :)
