Yuuri heaved a huge sigh and stared out the window. The sky was such a gorgeous blue…
"Your majesty!" Gwendal barked, making Yuuri jump. "If you can't stay focused for five minutes, we're going to be doing paperwork until even I die, and that will be several hundred years hence!"
"Sorry," Yuuri apologized meekly, tightening his grip on the quill that had been lying limp in his fingers. He looked back at the stack of parchments in front of him and began filling in the appropriate blanks.
It was just that his mind kept drifting back to several nights ago, when Wolfram had announced that he was tired of waiting for Yuuri to "give up on the three-legged pony", whatever the hell that meant in Mazoku, and the next thing Yuuri knew, they had both been naked.
Wolfram's skin had been so soft and warm…and when he blushed, it crept the whole way down his chest…and his hands were callused from…
"Your majesty!" Gwendal roared, making Yuuri's quill jerk across the page, leaving a black streak. "Will you at least look at what you're signing!"
"Is there a problem in here?" Gunter asked, sticking his head in the door.
"Yes!" Gwendal answered, glaring at Yuuri. "The Maou has just signed a war declaration!"
"I…what?" Yuuri peered at the document in question. Reading the florid Mazoku legalese was still something of a struggle.
"Hmm." Gunter crossed the room and picked up the document in question. "It appears we will be making an immediate attack upon…Shin Makoku."
Yuuri let out a nervous giggle as Gunter made a fist and punched Gwendal in the arm.
"Oh, get out, both of you!" Gwendal snapped, slapping Gunter's hand away. "I'll finish this myself!"
Yuuri scampered off as fast as he could go, and Gunter only paused to asked if Gwendal remembered he was supposed to come to Gunter's room tonight after dinner…
"Yes, yes, I remember," Gwendal assured him, and Gunter left with a small smile.
Of course he remembered, Gwendal grumbled to himself as he flipped over one document and began on the next. It wasn't like he was going to forget Gunter's clever, long-fingered hands, or his warm mouth…or all that lavender hair spread out over his pillows…
Gwendal heaved a sigh as he gaze wandered out the window. The sky was such a gorgeous blue…
