Drabble 30: Pick Up Lines

By: Kigen

Unofficially entitled Bedtime Stories of a Crimson Nightmare. Sugary sweet YohLysergness.

Disclaimer: I made my mommy buy me dinner today. If I owned Shaman King, there'd be much HaoLyserg, YohLyserg, and HaoLysergYoh kinkiness in it, and my mommy would have taken me someone more expensive than Subway.

Yoh sat there, his eyes fixed on Lyserg. The dowser was just reading on the couch, as he had been all morning, but Yoh still had to make sure his looks weren't too obvious. He didn't need Lyserg wary or nervous for what he was about to do.

Stepping into the room (making sure he made enough noise for Lyserg to hear him, but not too much to startle the boy), Yoh took a seat next to Lyserg (close enough to be by Lyserg, not to close to make the boy uncomfortable).

Lyserg's eyes looked up to see Yoh, decided he was not a threat, and returned to his book.

"Hey Lyserg?"

"Hmm?" Lyserg tensed slightly, but didn't look up from his book.

Yoh thought for a moment.

Should he be direct and get it over with in one blow? A sneak attack? Or maybe lure Lyserg into a false sense of security?

As he debated, Lyserg squirmed slightly in his seat, setting the book down. "Yoh?"

Finally deciding, he grabbed Lyserg's arms (tight enough to keep the dowser there, not tight enough that Lyserg couldn't get away if he really wanted to) and pulled the boy into a kiss (firm enough to show his feelings, but chaste and gentle enough to comfort Lyserg).

The boy automatically froze on the spot, slowly relaxing as the kiss went on.

Pulling away, Yoh looked down at Lyserg's flushed face. Lyserg cast his eyes down and his head turned away.

And Yoh smiled.

"You're really cute Lyserg."

Lyserg blushed even darker, but didn't run away and didn't try and fight.

Yoh wrapped his arms around Lyserg (tight enough to keep him pressed against his chest, light enough that Lyserg could easily pull away). He could feel Lyserg's heart pounding, before it slowed down to normal, and the boy fully relaxed.

Yoh smiled against Lyserg's hair.

Who said that pick up lines were so hard?

:-:-:-:-:

HaoLysergYoh humor next chapter, with the slightest, microscopic bit of RenLyserg if you squint really, REALLY hard. Hints are the words 'war' and 'toilet paper.' Have fun all.

Read and review for the sake of the comedy all.

Ja manna-san!
