I got a lot of reviews, and you didn't! Well, you most likely got more than me, but, whatever, just let me enjoy my reviews, okay?
I' really happy hyperactive happy horny and did I mention happy yet?
The world seemed very beautiful to Suguru today. The snow was less dirty than usual (I just decided it is winter in this fiction), the cats even cuter and the children less annoying. He felt like he was on cloud nine today. He was really beginning to understand how Shuichi felt.
He was walking hand in hand with Tatsuha in the park. Tatsuha looked at his boy with a smile. The kid was really enjoying himself. He had to admit, it was kinda nice, just walking here with his Su-kun.
They walked like that for about ten minutes. Then, Tatsuha got bored. Now, your trusting, cute little boyfriend is walking right next to you, completely off guard, and there's snow around. Gee, what would a bored guy do?
Push snow into his boyfriends face, of course.
"Waagh! Tatsuha! What was that for!"
"Hahaha! I was bored!"
Suguru glared at him. "I was having a great time there!"
"Oh. Well, I'm not sorry, with snow come snow fights."
"Snow fights are two-sided, right?"
Suguru smirked at him. He'd never done a snow fight before, but hey, how hard could it be?
He tried to stuff snow down Tatsuha's coat, but as Su-kun soon found out, having a snow fight was actually quite hard. Poor kid.
It wasn't long before he was running all around the park, trying to dodge slush balls but failing miserably. Just when Tatsuha was making a particularly large one, he was run over by two kids on a sledge. Suguru jumped the opportunity and completely buried his boyfriend under a mountain of snow.
"Hahaha! How's that feel!"
Tatsuha sputtered. "That's not fair!"
Suguru stuck his tongue out.
"Oi! Are you okay?"
The kids from the sledge came running off, after crashing into a tree a little further down the hill.
"Well, except for the fact that my boyfriend here took the opportunity to get back at me, I'm fine, I think."
Suguru blushed at the open use of the word 'boyfriend'. He still wasn't used to being introduced like that.
The kid giggled, and pulled his hat and shawl away to reveal a mob of pink hair and two huge pink eyes. "Didn't you recognise me?"
"Shuichi-kun! No, how was I supposed to know it was you through that hat and shawl and everything? So that is Ryu-chan, then?"
"Yup! And Kuma, too."
Only then did Tatsuha see that bit of snow there, which he'd presumed to be, well, just snow, was actually a snow-covered plush.
"Oh, right."
Ryuichi took off his shawl as well, shivered, and wrapped his arms around his boyfriend.
"Hello na no da!"
"Wow, you two look really cold, even though you were all covered up like that."
"Yeah, we've been out in the snow for a while now."
"Make sure you don't get sick, I can't have you dropping out on me now, if I want to beat Seguchi-san."
Shuichi nodded.
"Hey, hey, Su-chan, Tats-chan, d'you wanna come over and have hot chocolate with marshmallows at Ryu-chan's and Shu's place?"
"Yeah, I'd love to! You, Su-kun?"
"Sure."
They walked back to Ryuichi's place, Ryuichi babbling almost non-stop, Suguru blushing because Tatsuha was holding his hand, and Shuichi cooing at how cute the two looked. And Tatsuha, well, I've told you before I only gave peeks into his mind if I really have to. Y'know, rating and all. By the way, should the rating for this fic go up? I just realized there are a lot of x-rated things going on, like, all the time. (sweat drops) So yeah, maybe it'd be a good idea to up the rating…
"So, Hiro-kun, what do you think? Pretty nice place, huh?"
Hiro stared. "Um…It's very…you."
K laughed. "How very true!"
Hiro sweat dropped. The walls of his apartment were covered with posters of guns, tanks and other top-of-the notch weaponry. There was a showcase with guns that looked pretty antique to Hiro, and of course K's collection of guns, bazooka's, and there were boxes of cleaning supplies.
"You want something to eat?"
"Yeah, sure."
They hadn't gotten any of those pancakes Ryuichi had been making, because of the chaos that had ensued after the message from Suguru.
"What would you like?"
"I usually have cereal in the morning, but it's closer to lunchtime at the moment I think…"
"It's past lunch already! I know, I've got some spareribs in the fridge, I think…"
"Spareribs…?"
"Too heavy for lunch?"
"I wouldn't know, I've never had spareribs."
"Seriously? Oh, you have got to taste them! And you're lucky, I know just how to make them!"
K put on a pink frilly apron and Hiro burst out laughing.
"What! I needed an apron, and this was the only one they had!"
"But…hahaha…That doesn't make it any less funny! I bet if you looked at you from behind, the long hair in combination with that… thing… would make you seem a girl!"
"Hiro-kun, you're crushing my male ego."
Hiro snickered. It sure was weird, being around K like this. He went into the kitchen and watched as his manager dug a large pile of meat from the fridge. "Whoah, are we gonna eat all of that?"
"Don't worry, it's mostly bone. Let's see, I already prepared these, didn't I…?"
He continued mumbling as he put the meat into the oven/microwave.
Hiro felt a little uncomfortable. He was at K's apartment, no one was around, who knows what might happen? Not that he was afraid K would rape him, but…
"Hiro? Here, it's done."
"Oh, okay…"
They sat at the table in silence. It was beginning to freak him out. This was one of those moments where you were desperate to say something, but also felt afraid to break the silence…
"You like?"
"Yeah, it's quite good. I'm making a mess though…"
"Hahaha! It's physically impossible to eat it without getting everything and everyone dirty."
"As I have found."
He smiled at K, and K, well, he smiled all the time, really, so his face didn't change much. So yeah.
There was more Silence, though Hiro felt it was less bad than before.
Hiro studied the kitchen some more. It was incredible, the amount of guns there was. Small, big, snipers, machine-guns… What did he need so many gins for anyway?
"Wondering about all the guns?"
"Yeah. Why do you have guns everywhere, even in the kitchen?"
"I feel safer with guns around."
"I find that hard to imagine…"
"Well, I did grow up in a house that was positively crammed with all kind of weaponry, my older brother had his bazooka collection in the kitchen, and my mom gave courses on shooting tactics, types of weaponry and everything, while my father had a lab where he developed handguns and my grandfather had a dojo for all kinds of martial arts. Then there was my big sister who had a tank, my little twin brothers that collected bowguns and traditional bows, five little brothers and three or so sisters that were obsessed with martial art and who had training material all over the house, then there was another sister who had a passion for swords, and a brother and a sister who-
-Hey, hey, hey, how big is your family!"
"Oh, pretty big. My mom loves kids and had fifteen or something, until the doctor said she couldn't have any children anymore, and she started adopting them. I think all in all, I have about twenty-five siblings or so... You wanna see a picture?"
Hiro's eyes nearly bugged out. "twenty-five! That's… You must've had a really big house!"
"Yeah, it was a pretty big mansion. We had a forest, enough grassland for a ranch and a military exercise ground as well."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, wanna see a picture?"
Hiro nodded, dumbfound.
K got up, washed his hands and signed for him to do the same and follow him into the living room. He took a (quite large) picture from the wall and showed it to Hiro.
"See, that's me, there, and that's Jamie, the brother I got along with best. We were always together!"
"Is that really you? You look so small and cute! How old were you there?"
K blushed, seemingly not appreciating the comment much. "I think… twelve? You can count by the kids. One a year, except for twins, but they wear the same clothes and stand together, so you can count them as one."
"That's okay, I don't need to know that precise…"
"What kind of family do you come from?"
"Me? I'm an only kid. I lived next door to Shuichi though, so he and Maiko were practically my family. I think when we were little, we spent about half our time at our own house, the other half at the other's house."
"Woa, so you and Shuichi-kun go back that far?"
"You hadn't noticed?"
K Sweat dropped. "Well, I didn't think anyone would be able to put up with him for that long, frankly…"
Hiro snickered. "I'll admit I've had my killing urges."
They continued the day like that, talking pleasantly, and really getting to know each other. And unlike every other couple in this fic, neither of them was all that eager to sleep with the other right away. Heck, they didn't even kiss! How boring is that?
Eiri crashed onto the couch. He'd done that about two hundred times already that day, but it didn't matter. He sighed and opened his beer. He couldn't concentrate on his latest novel. And the deadline was hovering over him like a big, bad, scary alien spaceship.
Why couldn't he concentrate? It was quiet; no one was around to bother him.
He sighed again. That was probably the whole problem; he'd gotten used to having someone around, making noise and being a royal pain. And now he couldn't work without anymore.
He grunted, frustrated, and grabbed the phone.
"mochi mochi?"
"Seguchi?"
"Eiri-san! Where did you go all of a sudden!"
He sighed and rolled his eyes. "I left for my apartment, and I even told you so, but you were too busy fighting with Mika to notice."
"I'm so sorry, Eiri-san! And, won't you call me Tohma or onii-sama anymore?"
Eiri could almost hear the guy pout.
"Did you and Mike reach an agreement?"
"Well, if you call me being out here in the cold, and her calling her lawyer for a divorce an agreement…"
Eiri snickered. Tohma whined "It's not funny, Eiri-san!"
"I know, I know."
They fell Silent.
"So, where are you now?"
"Aww, are you concerned about me? That's so sweet, Eiri-san!"
"Just answer the damn question!"
"Well, I…Eheheh…"
"What's with the nervous laugh?"
"Well, I was on my way to your place, because, well, I would go to a hotel, but Mika didn't let me take my coat, and my wallet was in there, so I can't go anywhere!"
"But you live on the other side of the city. Were you planning to walk here?"
Tohma fell silent. Eiri sighed.
"Where are you? I'll come pick you up."
Tohma squealed happily. "Oh, thank you thank you thank you!"
"Don't get any ideas. I just need someone around to distract me so I can work on my novel."
Tohma ignored the twisted logic, and began explaining where he was.
"Yes, Fujisaki Suguru here?"
He pushed Tatsuha as the young priest pouted and tried to pull his boyfriend back into the kiss.
"Hey, Su-chan! I was wondering, where are you planning to hold the play and how much will the tickets be?"
"Hmm? Why do you want to know that, Maiko-chan?"
Tatsuha settled for wrapping his arms around Suguru and caressing his bare torso.
"Well, I was on a forum and I told the people there about your play and stuff, and there were over nine hundred people who said they were willing to pay about twenty bucks for a ticket! So, I figured maybe I should start on the ticket selling!"
"N…Nine hundred?"
Tatsuha gave him a questioning look. Nine hundred what? Must be good, to shock Su-kun that much.
"Yeah! But there are also people who check every weekend, about three hundred more, and I think some of them want to come as well. Also I found another forum with like three thousand members and I'm sure that, with a little advertising, I could get some more people to come!"
"Uh… That'd be great, Maiko-chan!"
Tatsuha began nibbling on his neck, clearly bored by the 'long' phone call.
"I, um, Tatsuha, stop it! So, wi-
-Ohh, was I interrupting you two or something! I'm so sorry! Please, go on, I'll stay on the line!"
"I'm sure you will… Anyway, Maiko-chan, do you think you'd be able to do the tickets on your own? And rent a place? Profit is not so important, as long as we beat Seguchi-san."
"Yeah, I got economics in school! Leave it to me! Now I won't disturb you anymore! Bye bye, have fun!" Maiko giggled and a click sounded, followed by a dial tone.
"You're not fooling me, Maiko-chan. It doesn't say connection cut on my end. He heard Maiko pout, and he hung up on her.
"So what was that all about?"
"Maiko-chan has been doing a lot of advertising for me, apparently. I gave her the responsibility for renting a place and selling the tickets."
"Are you sure that's a good idea?"
"Well, we'll have an audience made up almost entirely of yoaifangirls, but other than that, I think she'll do fine."
Tatsuha sweat dropped. "Anything to beat Seguchi, ey?"
Suguru nodded determinately. Tatsuha shrugged and went back to kissing and touching him.
There, that was pretty long, wasn't it? My teacher scolded me for writing dirty things during my class, but I thought it would be okay, since it was English class and I am writing in English! But apparently not. (shrugs) Whatever, I got kicked out, but at least I didn't get detention.
