So I'm finally updating. ;; Yes, I know I'm evil, but Hyun has, of course, been lazy. I know, I should probably write some myself but I'm just as lazy as he is, if not more. So enjoy the double-update. And review. They make me giggle.

Okay. Now I'm mad.

Rinkai was agitated, to the say the least, with the current state of his realationship with Hyun. Sure, they weren't exactly together or anything along those lines, but what gave Hyun the insane idea that he had any right to actually look at other people? To ignore Rinkai? To act as though he had anything better to do than spend time with his favorite Tokage – even though Rinkai was sure that Hyun would debate that he hated all Tokage equally.

In his agitation, however, the dark-haired shinobi hadn't noticed the slowly mounting crowd of people billowing out around him, filling the small main room of the ramen stand with their hot, pulsating bodies. It was a wonder that he didn't fall off of his stool from being drugged and intoxicated with the body heat emissions, after all that's what he normally would have done, but not tonight... Not when that jerk of a Jung was out there... somewhere doing Kami only knew what with Kami only knew who.

"Mission my heat pits..." Rinkai mumbled under his breath as he inhaled several noodles from his chopsticks, his eyes twitching behind the bandages that crossed across his eyes, cheeks, and a little of his forehead with building annoyance. Sure, Hyun had mentioned something about a mission the last time he had seen him, nearly two weeks ago, but if memory served, Rinkai had been to busy plotting the fastest way to get Hyun out of his shirt and filled with alcohol. Not that that plan had worked out either, the Tokage reflected with grim certainty as he reclined against the bar since he'd turned his back to it, because the stupid funsucker just had to knock his head against the floor after crawling through Rinkai's window.

Rinkai crouched over Hyun, face lightly contorted into a mix of disgust and sheer amusement and lips curved upward in an arrogant tilt.

"Why don't you ever use the door, Hyun? It may not be as fancy as the one at your house, but it works..." Rinkai teased, composure slowly returning as he checked Hyun's body for any other bangs or clots and found the blood flow smooth and unobstructed.

"Aii! Sure, make of me while me head is throbbing." Hyun whined, wincing as he pulled himself into a sitting position against the wall while cradling his injured skull. "Besides, I didn't want to possibly interrupt you..."

"Interrupt me? From?" The Tokage smirked, hair blowing across his own exposed chest, and sat down across from Hyun, eyes moving undetected across Hyun's body for one last damage sweep. After all, even Rinkai would feel almost guilty about ogling Hyun if the boy was possibly injured. But upon finding no further damage, Rinkai happily settled his eyes on the firm muscles to be found in Hyun's chest and stomach.

"Your date!" Hyun blurted out pathetically, slumping against the cool wooden panels of the wall and sliding down so that the back of his head rested against it. "You were on a date... right?"

"Dobe, Takara left three hours ago... but I am expecting company later so you might have to make yourself scarce..."

Hyun's grey eyes sunk and had he no self-control, he would have pouted then and there. That had not been the answer he wanted, but he had been expecting it... Oh, how he had been expecting it, but that last part caught him by surprise. Who, other than that annoying pest Takara, would be visiting Rinkai this late at night?

"You do realize that it is almost midnight right? Who would be stupid enough to visit you?"

"You're here aren't you?"

"...Well, I wanted to tell you about my mission..."

Rinkai's lips quirked into a smile though he quickly masked it with a smirk. After all, who was he to go around smiling at people?

"So you had your reasons, yes? And I can assure you that my guests have theirs..."

Hyun frowned and jerked forward, placing his hands on either side of Rinkai's crossed legs, and stared at the white, opaque bandages that kept him from discerning his friend's moods or thoughts.

"You're hedging."

"You're annoying."

"You're a pain."

"You're a callous jerk."

"You're an arrogant ass."

"And you, my dear Hy-chan, are bleeding," Rinkai stated with a tone of finality, fingers coming up to gently cup Hyun's cheeks to tilt his face closer to the Tokage's seemingly-sightless face. With a deftness and fluidity that made Hyun melt on the inside, Rinkai stroked away the trickle of blood that led down from Hyun's forehead to his cheek. 'Pobably the last remnants of the fall' Rinkai thought with a small smirk as he brought his lips closer to Hyun's. 'And if I can't get him drunk... I might as well enjoy the moment–'

Rinkai's thoughts were cut off by Hyun suddenly closing the gap between them and all but ravaging Rinkai's mouth there. The motion, no matter how well intended, threw Rinkai off balance and both of them toppled to the floor which ended with Hyun atop Rinkai in a rather inappropriate position.

"Dobe! What are you doing?" Rinkai seethed through closed teeth, body langauge agressive as he reached out to grasp Hyun's collar, but felt nothing as Hyun jerked upward and moved toward the window.

"S-s-sss-ss-s-so-o-rry R-r-r-rr-rr-i-n-ka-ii" stuttered Hyun as he clumsily clambered up the wall and back out of the window, leaving a very agitated Rinkai on the floor, alone. It annoyed him somewhat, that instead of him kissing Hyun, the boy had kissed him instead. It was very frustrating.

"... I just wanted to be on top... and you were sitting on my bruised leg... DOBE! WHAT A DOBE!"

As the memory receded, Rinkai growled and downed the rest of his ramen with a breath. Though the good that did him because at the moment he wanted nothing more than to heave the contents of his stomach on the floor. At that moment, he loathed Hyun very much. At that moment, he would have moved Heaven and the earth beneath his feet just for five minutes alone with the Jung, and a pointy object in hand. At that moment... he was ready to lay dead anything that stood between Hyun and himself because that jerkface... that arrogant, pompous, uncaring jerkface had just walked in... three minutes late and with some man... some strange man who was standing far too to close to Hyun for Rinkai's liking.

"...Hey Rinkai..." Hyun stated nervously as he finally approached his friend, the tall; tan man following closely behind with a smirk on his face that would have rivaled or surpassed any one of Rinkai's. "... Guess what..."

And now, the next chapter!
