CHAPTER 14: The Value of Emotion

Ban and Sorin walk into the Honky Tonk Café just in time to be greeted by the waiting duo of Ginji and Akabane. Ginji smiles at Ban and asks, "How was your mission? I was worried because you took so long, why did it take you so long?"

"We had to go get the Beetle, it was towed again; after that, we decided to look at the scenery," Ban replies with a half-truth. When they had stopped to look at the scenery to fume about the fact that the negotiations to raise the reward failed and the amount of the towing and impound fines when they had parked the Beetle in the wrong place again; a kiss happened, too. Then again, why even bring it up? Akabane would just rub it in his face.

-Flashback-

"Why do you care?" Ban asked while leaning over Sorin.

"I don't know, Midou. I guess I always have..." Sorin smiled in his sleep wrapping his arms around Ban's neck, pulling him into a kiss; that definitely not what he was expecting from his rival. At first he wanted to pull away and yell at Sorin for doing this; for keeping a secret like that from him. Then again, why was he so mad? He never cared about Sorin before! Ban couldn't understand a bit of it, but it started to feel really good. It's about then that Sorin slowly opened his eyes, his dark eyelashes brushed against Ban's face and his green eyes started to focus on Ban, who happened to be leaning over him and kissing him, (What's going on!? Has Midou Ban gone crazy!?) ...His lips feel so soft and warm; Sorin didn't expect that at all. Ban pushed his lips against Sorin's a little more and the black-haired former rival closed his eyes, (...Hm... Well if he has, I'll let him stay like that for a while...)

-Present-

Sorin and Ban both blush at the thought of what happened and Ginji walks up to and hugs Ban and says, "I'm sorry that Ban-chan had problems with the Beetle again. We rescued Madoka-chan; Shidou even gave us a reward." Sorin gives Ginji a jealous look; he finds it apparent that Ban is no longer Ginji's to toy with (yes, he think Ginji toys with Ban).

The green-eyed fighter stands next to Ginji and taps him on the shoulder, "Get off of Ban."

"What's wrong, Sorin-kun?" Ginji looks up at Sorin with innocent brown eyes, "Was the mission you guys went on really bad?"

"No, it's just the fact that Ban-is-mine," Sorin glares.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

This just gets him angry and he pushes Ginji off of Ban, Akabane gives a menacing glare but doesn't move, "You already have Kuroudo and I love Ban, leave him alone. You want to know another reason why we took so long getting here? Ban used his Evil Eye on me to dream of him and kissed me."

"So, you're Ban-chan's boyfriend?" the blonde blinks in confusion but then smiles, "I was hoping you and Ban-chan could be friends. Do you really love him?"

Sorin blushes and looks over at Ban who is blushing angrily at the current turn of events and then looks at Ginji, "Um, well, I, um, y-yes, I do."

"Yay! Ban-chan and Sorin-kun love each other!" the brown-eyed former Volts member smiles. Ban on the other hand frowns, then glares at Sorin, then turns and leaves the room.

Poor Ban and Sorin... Read and review! Voice your opinion, but no flames, OK?

Cold Rain: What was that about? O.O

Ban: ... (glare...)

Sorin: (turns into cute chibi and clings to Ban's waist) Pleeaase talk to me!? I love yooou!
