Today's rare pair of the day is *drum roooooollllllll* Manami X Masayoshi (Justice)

"Masayoshi, please remember to take an umbrella with you it might rain today." Manami said as she bid her boyfriend farewell.

It's been three months since she's moved in with him and she's already very used to their domesticated life together. In fact their apartment acts very much like her safe haven away from the press who keep pestering her for interviews to discuss her research and findings or meanies who want to discredit all her work because she's either a. really young or b. a women in a normally male dominated field of work….So it's nice to come back home and just flop onto the sofa to cuddle with her boyfriend then after she vented a bit and he vented a bit they would eat something…like homemade curry, Masayoshi's favorite.

"Don't worry there's only a 30% chance of rain I'll be fine!" Masayoshi assured her before placing a quick peck on her lips as he went out the door and headed towards the police station.

Still Manami was worried as Masayoshi was prone to colds…but like he said there was only a small chance of rain…

It was raining…and it wasn't the light rain one could jog through without getting too wet it was really raining, like pouring buckets. Worst of all Masayoshi wasn't back yet and he didn't have an umbrella! Manami knew it, she knew it! Oh he would be soaking wet when he got back….She sighed as she got out her phone.

"Y-Yes, yes that's right. Thank you for understanding."

After calling her work to inform them she was taking a few days' vacation Manami immediately pulled up the google browser to look for any home remedies she could make…Perhaps some simple chicken soup…It was a shame there was no cure for the common cold Manami thought…

"You know what! I'm going to add that to my list of duties! Find a cure for colds." Manami vowed.

That way Masayoshi wouldn't have to take so many sick leaves! She can't believe she's never thought of this before…Hmm...Perhaps she should start to work on that cure today…but ever since the… 'incident' she wasn't allowed to make any kinds of concoctions in the apartment anymore or risk getting thrown out…Then Manami suddenly got a brilliant idea. Cooking was similar to chemistry…no? And it's not like anyone could stop her from making food!

"Ritsu pull up all the information you can about curries and cold remedies!"

"Right away!" The cheerful AI responded.

Cold and wet…That's all that Masayoshi could really feel at the moment. His clothes were heavy from all the water they had soaked up and they clung desperately on his skin and acted as heavy cold, wet, weights. He should have listened to Manami. He let out a sigh as he got his keys out to open the apartment door.

"I'm home…!" He tiredly announced.

"M-Masayoshi welcome home." Manami cried out as her head popped out of the kitchen archway.

Their apartment had large archways instead of doors that connected most of the rooms expect for the bathroom and master bedroom of course. The open floor plan made the moderately small apartment feel bigger and roomier.

"You were right about the rain now i-I'm a-a AcHoo!" God dammit another sick leave he thought wearily…

"Oh no already! Don't worry though I made you some curry! You'll feel better in no time!" She proclaimed happily.

"You're too good for me." Masayshoi commented with a tired smile.

Most of the girlfriends he's had in the past always got fed up after the third or fifth cold and they didn't like how the majority of the time they only saw their boyfriend when he was sick as the rest of the time he was off working. He's glad Manami's different.

"O-Oh but before you come eat; why don't you go take a warm shower and put on some dry clothes." Manami advised.

"Yes dear." He replied before making his way towards the bathroom with the shower wanting nothing more than to peel the wet clothes of his shivering body.

Manami in the meantime began setting the table. She was so proud of her curry cure for the cold remedy recipe! She had looked up all sorts of things that supposedly helped with alleviating the cold symptoms like honey, ginger, fenugreek, horseradish, cranberries, lemon, garlic, carrots, and onions all of which were natural remedies that people have used against the common cold. She also added in some crushed vitamin supplements into the mix for maximum effectiveness along with a few other ingredients like bananas and green bell peppers.

Masayoshi finally came back out feeling refreshed and wearing a large law and order t-shirt and boxer briefs with police sirens on them. He should be arrested for being so cute…Manami thought as she lovingly gazed at her boyfriend with his tousled dark green hair.

"You're so cute." Manami commented accidentally voicing her thoughts out loud as she often seems to do…

During the beginning of their relationship she would blush and feel embarrassed by these outbursts but at this stage she doesn't feel abased or shy in the slightest. After all, she's merely stating facts. Masayoshi on the other hand always gets flustered by her blunt comments. Manami didn't mean to be a smooth charmer she just kind of was. He felt like he should be the one saying those things but hey who didn't like being flattered.

"S-so what kind of curry are we having?" He nervously asked trying to not look into Manami's loving gaze because he knew once he saw her brilliant lilac eyes there was no going back.

"Oh! I made a special curry for you to help you get better!" Manami proudly announced as she took out a plate from their cupboard and began putting white steamed rice on one side of the plate.

Masayoshi in the meanwhile made his way to their small circular table and sat himself down. A special curry just for him…He couldn't wait! Manami then opened the lid to the pot that contained the curry… and from the pot deadly fumes and wailing spirits arose in thick black clouds. The smell was so bad Masayoshi instinctively lurched. What kind of deadly poison did his little witch make!? The once warm happy aura of the room was gone and was replaced by a dark heavy sense of dread…

"I hope you like it!" Manami exclaimed as she set down the dish in front of him with a dazzling smile.

A smile that was so juxtaposed to the entire aura surrounding them that only Manami could pull it off because as much as he loved her he had to admit that she was so dense sometimes.

Masayoshi's eye fearfully looked down at the curry that was secreting a strong tainted smell that could not be defined. The curry itself was an odd color that seemed to constantly shifts hues as its surface distorted the light around it and it looked rather foul in nature as it threatened to taint the pure white innocence of the rice…There was no way IN HELL he was eating this!

"I made it with all my love!" Manami gushed as she sat down beside him still smiling as she held out a spoonful of rice and curry. "Say ahh…"

He couldn't say no! There was no way he could resist! He could only force a terrified smile as he hesitantly opened his trembling mouth ever so slightly. He didn't want it; he didn't want it…! But SHE WORKED SO HARD! Filled with love? You can't reject anything once someone says that! This was truly a testament to his love for his poison glasses.

As soon as the curry hit his tongue he felt instant regret. It was thick and slimy and tasted stale like medicine. But Manami was looking at him with such childlike delight; her amethyst eyes glimmering with hope…He forced himself to swallow it. You do it for her!

"How was it?" She asked her head tilting slightly with a concerned smile.

No….No! You can't- You can't fucking do that! It's so unfair! Masayoshi thought torn between blenching from the aftertaste of the curry and trying not to break his girlfriend's pure heart.

"Uhhugh…I-I-it's really good…" He lied as he forced a cheerful smile.

"Oh! Good I'm so relived!" Manami said as she sighed from relief. "Seeing as you liked it I kind of want to try it!"

"W-wait no, no no, no no!" Masayoshi wailed.

But he was too late she had already taken a spoonful of curry and ate it ignorantly happy. He could only helplessly watch as her face contorted from happy innocence into a scrunched up face of disgust with knitted brows and green tinted skin.

"Oh my go-murh!" Manami got up from her seat so fast that the chair toppled over.

She made a beeline to the trashcan.

"uhh…M-manami you okay…?" Masayoshi asked as Manami had gone silent after she spit out the god awful curry…

"W-why..?"

"Huh..?"

"C-c-curry isn't like chemistry at all! It was disgusting! So…Why did you put yourself though that?! Why lie!?" She babbled yelling more out of confusion than anger.

"Do you want to order take out?" Masayoshi gently asked placing a warm hand on Manami's shoulder effectively dodging the question.

"…yes, please…" She muttered as she let out a sigh. "I-I feel bad f-for making you go through t-that so…So I'll make you cookies..! I'll follow the instructions this time I promise! No more food chemistry." She announced.

"You don't have t-.." He looked into her eyes. They were filled with determination and a strong resolve…She was going to do it either way…

"Well okay but do you want me help or?" He asked.

"Nope. You go and rest." She said as she started gathering all the necessary equipment and ingredients.

"Ok then I'll just order us some pizza while you do that."

"Roger!"

In order to make up for what she did with the curry Manami tried making some cookies as a form of apology. Key word on tried. It wasn't that she was messing up again, but rather her boyfriend kept trying to steal the cookie batter before it was finished. She couldn't take her eyes of the bowl without him trying to sneak some cookie dough in his mouth. Lucky for her she was a multitasker, but that didn't make it any easier.

"N-no Masayoshi you could get salmonella!" Manami cried as she took away the cookie dough covered spoon from Masayoshi's hand before he could lick it.

"But, Manami…" He whined….

Manami was acting like a very concerned mother right now…

"J-just wait the oven's almost done heating up…" Manami reasoned.

Masayoshi pouted…He didn't want to wait that long and the pizza still hadn't arrived! He was hungry…! ...Oh god he sounds like a toddler…

"…fine…" He replied with a defeated sigh.

"Thank you for understanding." Manami replied gratefully before placing a kiss on his cheek for being such a good sport.

The next day Masayoshi got up early and to his utter surprise.

"OH my god! You're curry actually worked!" Masayoshi cried out astonish.

"W-whwat da I where…no t-that's not my cyanide…" Manami groggily half mumbled as she was forcibly woken up from her sleep.

"Manami I don't feel sick!" Masayoshi exclaimed.

"I-It actually worked…?" She questioned dumbfounded…trying to debate if this was still part of her dream "Oh…I guess I can go back to work…I was going to take a week's leave to help you get better but you're already feeling better so…"

"Manami…"

"Yes?"

Masayoshi gently scooped up his girlfriend and placed her on his lap as he buried his face into the crook of her neck.

"Would the lab really fall apart if you were absent for a day or two more?" He softly asked his hot breath sending shivers down her spine…

"I-I…uhh…n-no I guess not…" Manami stammered trying to control her raging heartbeat.

"Good…because I'm pretty sure you have to meet up with a certain police officer for some…interrogation..."

"H-huh..? D-Did I do something wrong? What police officer?" She asked innocently clearly confused by his statement.

His shoulders started shaking as his chest vibrated from his booming laughter.

"D-did i-I say something funny?" She asked confused as to why her boyfriend started to laugh.

He was finally able to quiet down his laughter after a while…He decided there was no harm in teasing her a bit.

"If I recall correctly yesterday evening an attempted murder happened." He stated seriously with a cheesy smile.

"W-what was it nearby?" Manami asked concerned.

"Yes it was…It was actually in this very apartment." He replied and she let out a startled gasp.

He contemplated just out right telling her what he had in mind but this was much more fun.

"You see around the time of 9 o' cock pm I was nearly poisoned."

Manami flushed when she realized he was talking about her curry.

"I-It wasn't poisoned!" She said defensively….then again it might as well have been.

"The only people present at the time of the crime were you and I which makes you the prime suspect." He continued.

"B-But I-I would never harm you! I'm i-innocent I swear!" She cried.

"I know that but you know procedure Manami."

"O-okay…I-it is your job. D-do what you must, but can we do it in t-the living room?" Came her meek reply.

Her cheeks a rosy pink as she lowered her gaze trying to avoid eye contact while she squirmed around in his lap nervously…

He swallowed a nervous wad of saliva…was she being serious or did she still not get it..? He just buried his red face in her neck refusing to look her in the eyes as he let out a few nervous chuckles…He did not think this through.

"You're innocent…" He mumbled.

"R-really?" She thought only the judge got to decided who was innocent…

"Really, really. You're free to go."

"…"

"…"

"…w-well a day or two off f-from work isn't so bad…" She commented.

Perhaps he just wants to spend some time together since our work often keeps us apart. She thought

"W-would y-you like to g-go on a d-d-date…?" She stammered.

Once his face cooled down he finally replied. But, before answering he placed a chaste kiss on Manami's lips which made Manami yelp in surprise before turning a bright red.

"I would love to!"

He then leaned into her ear with a boyish grin.

"Later we can have that interrogation I was talking about. I thought we could use the special hand cuffs….in accordance to safety procedure that is." He was pushing it.

Manami was confused up until the point he made a reference to those hand cuffs…

"OH! T-That's what…y-y-ou meant! I-I I thought I uhh…W-well I…I t-thought you meant…something else…I oh…umm…W-well I…I-I-It's b-been a while haha I uhh wow…"

"Just kidding!"

"Ah! You're spending too much time with Rio and Karma, don't tease me like that!" She cried her face flush as she softly punched his chest in irritation. It was adorable and it made him laugh. He loved her to bits.
