Cat-chan: Since I feel so bad about the oncoming chapters (bad in the sad way not the 'oh this is a piece of crap' way) I decided to give you all a break and see what Tsuzuki and Hisoka did during the last chapter! I made it up in about fifteen minutes so it's only dialogue. It starts with Tsuzuki, but I think you'll catch on to whose who in this. And it's only Tsu-chan and 'Soka so it doesn't get more confusing. I was bored! Don't worry though, the next two chapters are longer and fluffier! Enjoy!
Chapter 14: Playful Banter
"'Suko-chan's gone for today."
"I know."
"She's spending the day with Wakaba-chan and dog-ass."
"I know."
"Hmm, it'll be weird without her, don't you think?"
"Maybe."
"I'm so used to her being around all the time, aren't you?"
"Not really."
"It's hard to believe she's only been here for five weeks. How long do you think she'll stay?"
"I don't know."
"I hope it's a long time. I really like 'Suko-chan!"
"I know."
"Can you say anything else besides 'I know' and those other vague answers 'Soka?"
"Yes, but I don't feel like using any other reply."
"Oh…"
"Hurry up and start working."
"Hai."
"……"
"……"
"……"
"Ne, Hisoka?"
"What?"
"It's too quiet."
"Your point?"
"…It's weird!"
"It's how the office is supposed to sound."
"Well I don't like it! Let's talk and then the quiet will go away! Okay 'Soka-chan?"
"No."
"Hidoi! Why not?"
"Because we need to be working, baka. That's why."
"Not fair! I don't feel like working."
"Then maybe you feel like getting fired?"
"Eep! No! No! No! I'll do my work Hisoka! I promise!"
"Good. Now shut up."
"Mou…"
"……"
"……"
"……"
"Ne, Hisoka?"
"What?"
"…Can we go out to eat after this?"
"…Will you do your work?"
"Hai hai!"
"Alright."
"Really? You mean it?"
"Hai."
"YAY! Sankyuu 'Soka-chaan!"
"Baka…"
"You're so nice."
"You're so annoying."
"Okay, that wasn't nice."
"Stop pouting."
"No. 'Soka is mean."
"Don't even go there. I just said we could go to dinner after work, didn't I?"
"Hai…"
"Does that qualify as mean to you?"
"No."
"Then why am I mean?"
"Becaaaauuuse! You said I was annoying!"
"That's not being mean. That's being brutally honest. There's a difference."
"No there's not."
"Yes there is."
"No there's not."
"Yes there is."
"Nuh-uh."
"Hai."
"Nope!"
"Baka."
"Waaah!"
"Shut up."
"Make me!"
"Why couldn't I have been given a normal partner?"
"What? You don't like me?"
"No."
"Hisoka…"
"……"
"Why did I continue to stay here if you don't like me?"
"Tsuzuki-"
"No, it's okay. I can take a hint. I'll just go resign now."
"Tsuzuki, come on. Baka, you know I didn't mean it."
"No I don't."
"Yes you do."
"No I don't."
"Yes you do."
"No I don't."
"Yes yo-… I give up!"
"Yay! I win!"
"Baka."
"I love you too 'Soka!"
"What-!"
"Tee hee! Only kidding!"
"……"
"Awww! So kawaii! 'Soka-chan's blushing!"
"Don't call me that! And I'm not blushing!"
"Yes you are."
"No I'm- Oh no. We're not doing that again."
"Aw, but it's fun!"
"No it's not!"
"Yes it is!"
"Tsuzuki! If you don't shut up then we're not getting dessert!"
"Eep! Gomen nasai Hisoka! I'll stop now!"
"Good."
"……"
"……"
"Oh! Yay it's time to go!"
"What? Already?"
"Yep! All that playful banter took up most of our time. Now let's go eat Hisoka!"
"Baka, you did that on purpose."
"Maaaayybeee…"
"……"
"……"
"…..."
"Alright I did do it on purpose."
"Thank you for being honest. You get an extra slice of pie tonight."
"Ooooh! Really?"
"Hai."
"Sankyuu 'Soka! I'm really glad you're my partner!"
"……"
""Soka?"
"…I'm glad you're my partner too…"
"We'll eat where you want to tonight, okay?"
"Okay."
"Then we can have dessert, but you can have just tea or coffee if you want!"
"Okay."
"Hey, Hisoka?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you think… maybe… could I…"
"What?"
"Could I stay over at your place tonight?"
"……"
"It gets really lonely at my house… anou… I don't like it."
"…… Alright."
"Really?"
"Yeah, it gets lonely at my place too."
"Now we can be lonely together! Which isn't very lonely at all. Which is good! Right Hisoka?"
"Right Tsuzuki."
"Yay! You agree with me! So, we can just stop by my place after dinner and pick up some stuff okay?"
"Okay."
"And this way, I'll be able to protect you from molesters!"
"Baka!"
"But 'Soka, it's a dangerous place out there! And you always leave your door unlocked! Tsk tsk tsk."
"How do you know that?"
"Because I check every night when you're sleeping!"
"Stalker."
"WHAT? I'm just looking out for the well-being of my partner!"
"……"
"Is that a bad thing?"
"No."
"Then why are you mad?"
"I'm not."
"You're aren't?"
"Uh-uh."
"That's good."
"……"
"……"
"…Tsuzuki?"
"Hai?"
"I-I'll put the futon in my room… okay?"
"Okay."
"Just so I can make sure you don't sneak to the fridge while I'm sleeping!"
"Of course, 'Soka."
"……"
"……"
"…thanks…"
"You're welcome, 'Soka-chan."
"And Tsuzuki?"
"Yeah?"
"Stop calling me that."
"Aa, right, Hisoka."
TBC!
