A/N : Sorry for the crapiness of the last chapter (I kind of want to pretend that it never happened). In this one, they finally make up! Oh, I wrote and posted that seme Reever oneshot. It's under the title "Oh My!" um, I hope you like it. (I lied about the lemon, that'll be next chapter, but they do kiss in this one so…)
Komui was so upset that he did a little bit of paperwork!?!! In an attempt to get Reever to praise him.
It didn't work, Reever was still avoiding him, and two days later you couldn't even tell that anything had been done
******* (Poor baby, he must be upset)
The piles of paperwork had gotten so bad that Lavi was literally going snorkeling in them, and Reever knew that something had to be done. It was not fair to let The Order suffer for his bad judgment and misplaced emotional attachments. He knew what he had to do.
******
Komui had been hiding in the kitchen, asking Jerry's advice on how to win Reever's heart (not knowing that he already had).
During a brief lull in the conversation, the object of his affections walked into the room.
Komui spun around when he heard a hissed, "Supervisor…"
"Ah, Reever," he looked a little sheepish. He decided to do what Jerry had suggested, "Um, I uh, I remember now…" He trailed off not knowing how to finish. What could he say? I remember possibly raping you? No. I remember jumping you and screwing your brains out? He didn't think the blonde would like that much. He shot a pleading glance at Jerry.
The cook wisely stayed out of it.
Reever looked a little surprised, but Komui seemed to regret it. "Just forget about it," he said softly. "Now, DO YOUR DAMN PAPERWORK!!"
He grabbed Komui by the wrist and dragged him back down to the science department, kicking and screaming.
*****
Along the way they saw a certain exorcist, who was wearing only a towel, being chased by a crazed hammer wielding General Cross, who was shouting "STAY AWAY FROM MY STUPID APPRENTICE!" accompanied by various strings of profanity.
It could have been worse; at least he wasn't being shot at.
******
The thing about Komui was, if you didn't sit there and force him to do paperwork, he'd just run off again. Reever was aware of this, and that's why he brought some of his work into the supervisor's office and sat with him.
The silence was deafening and awkward. It settled around their shoulders like a heavy weight. The soft scratch of Komui's pen and the whisper of Reever's papers didn't detract from the quiet, they added to it, made it multiply until it felt like they were both encased in stone.
Finally Komui couldn't take it anymore."So, uh, you and Victoria?"
"Friends." Reever replied disheartened, so he had been right.
"Is that so?" He was relieved.
"Yeah." Wait a minute Komui sounded sane for once! Damn, he must really like her. He sighed, "Just friends, I'm not interested in her or anything."
The second those words left his mouth Reever wanted to smack himself. 'Way to go. Geeze I can't just believe I told him she's available! Think fast, Reever, we can fix this.'
"But uh, I hear she has a crush on Johnny." A blatant lie. "So I don't think you're her type."
Komui was very confused. "Not her type…" he mused. "And what does that have to do with anything?"
"Well, you like her don't you?"
Komui let out an exasperated sigh. The sort of sigh Reever made hourly if not more often. Did he really think that he liked that Victoria girl? "No, I don't."
"But…. But you…." The younger scientist was bewildered.
It was the supervisor's turn to be confused."I what?"
"You…..you…..AGH!" he couldn't say it.
Even Komui's genius brain was having a hell of a time figuring out what Reever was trying to say. How was he supposed to respond to that? He gave up.
A maniacal gleam appeared in the supervisor's eyes. If Reever didn't know who he liked, well then he'd just have to give him empirical evidence. He stood up and stalked towards the blonde.
Reever stood up quickly, his papers falling off his lap to land on the already paper covered floor as he backed up.
Komui shoved Reever against a wall and brought their lips together.
A/N: I decided to be deliberately vague about whom Allen's boyfriend was. Originally, it was going to be Kanda but a friend of mine really likes LavixAllen so I decided to leave it up to the reader. I hope you don't mind. (If it made one person laugh than I accomplished my goal.)
A/N 2: Sorry for the delay, the boys and I bought a house. We are still in the process of packing, but it's just down the road from our apartment so the actual move shouldn't take very long. The next chapter should be up soon and there will be lemon.
A/N 3: I was really bored in math the other day so I wrote down all the KomuiXReever and ReeverxKomui story ideas I've come up with in the past several months. It turns out that I have a total of 18 viable story ideas (including this one and "Oh My!"). I really like some of them , I'd get confused if I tried to do two at once so I'll start one as soon as this is finished.
A/N 4: I think there is going be one more chapter and then an epilogue that uses the "coffee lube idea" So yeah, the last two chapters will have lemons.
