Drabble 11: Poison
By: Kigen
Unofficially entitled Bedtime Stories of a Crimson Nightmare. A T rated one. YohLyserg sap with a side of angst all. You have been warned.
Disclaimer: You still think I own Shaman King. If it did, it'd have Hotaru (see my Kiseki fic that I need to update) as a cannon character to steal Hao's pants, and try and stick Lyserg in them… and try and cut off Ren's spike. Power to the Korean Shamans.

Brown eyes fluttered as Yoh panted softly.
Lyserg frowned and ran a cool, damp cloth over the Japanese shaman's flushed features. Faust had said that the snake that bit Yoh hadn't been too poisonous, and he had already given Yoh the antivenin...
But why was it taking so long for Yoh to get better? Faust had given Yoh the antivenin over five hours ago.
Lyserg bit his lip. He knew it was selfish, he knew he should be worrying about Yoh; but he couldn't help but worry, what if Yoh died?
Blinking back tears, Lyserg bit his fist to keep from letting his sob escape. If Yoh died, he wouldn't have anyone left. He couldn't loose anyone again, he just-
"Lyserg?"
Yoh's voice was soft; his words slurred and sounding more than a little tired.
"What Yoh? Do you need something?"
Yoh blinked, studying the dowser's face with an almost scary intensity.
"You're crying." Yoh mumbled after a few moments.
Lyserg lifted his hand to touch his cheek, cursing when he realized he was in fact crying.
Yoh frowned. "Come 'ere"
Lyserg did what Yoh asked, coming to the side of the bed.
"Come here." Yoh repeated, gesturing to spot next to him.
"Yoh, you should be sleeping. Don't worry about me-"
"Lyserg, just lie down. I can't sleep anyway if I know you're crying." Yoh's voice was beginning to get a bit of it's strength back.
Knowing that Yoh was telling the truth, Lyserg laid down next to his boyfriend and was quickly pulled to Yoh's chest.
"Yoh?"
Yoh muttered something, pressing his face to Lyserg's hair. "You're too pretty to cry Lyserg." Yoh mumbled into his hair.
Lyserg didn't say anything, not knowing if Yoh meant it, or if it was the poison talking.
"Really." Yoh continued "You're too pretty to cry. You should be smiling and happy."
Defiantly the poison
"And I'm not going anywhere, so as long as I'm around I dun wanna see you cry. And I really don't want to see you try not to cry, specially if I'm right here." Yoh continued, his grasp loosening a little. He was beginning to fall asleep again...
"I love you Lyserg. I really do." Yoh murmured before falling completely asleep.
Lyserg closed his eyes, and pressed his cheek to Yoh's chest.
He could feel the gentle thumping of his heart. He listened to it until he joined Yoh in the realm of sleep.
It was defiantly the poison.

I have more drabble juice now. Everyone enjoy the angst? Next is more humor, cause twinsLyserg is just begging for some comedy.
Question, I gotta RenLyserg drabble. Should I stick it in here as a side drabble, or start another drabble series? I'm cranking out the drabble series right now.
Read and review all.
Ja manna-san!
