In which Add is showering and Ara walks in on him. I honestly don't know; I just wanted to write Add in a good mood because chocolate. lel~
Characters: Add (LP), Ara (YR)


Add was in a good mood today. Today wasn't just any day. He'd been up since pretty early, preparing himself for a long day ahead. Yes. Today was the day.

Today was Day 1 of Elrios's Annual Chocolate Exposition, and he couldn't bear to be late.

He was in the shower, humming a tune of ages past to himself as he washed his hair. Nothing could ruin this day! Good mood, good day, and soon, he'd be eating all the chocolate his body could hold, then more because hell if he was coming home without at least ten pounds worth of fudge. He chuckled to himself as he closed his eyes and leaned into the shower spray. Yes, he'd have enough chocolate to last himself until the Day of Thanks, if he ate it slow enough.

After making sure he'd gotten all the soap out of his hair, he turned the water off, nabbing his towel from outside. He held it just to hide his manly pride and wrenched the curtain back, whistling, but stopped as he realized he wasn't alone in the bathroom.

Ara stood, gawking at him, most likely equally surprised. They stared at one another, both jaws on the floor as Add realized Ara was only wrapped in a towel that did very little to hide her feminine gifts. Her mouth moved as if to say something. Add beat her to the punch.

"Can I... help you, Ara?"

The Yama Raja blinked and shook her head, her mouth snapping shut. "N-no, I'm sorry! I-I just... who... exactly...?"

"Ah?" Add tilted his head. "How do you not know how I am? We've been living together for what...? Four, five years now?"

"That's not what I- I mean..." Ara sighed, blushing a little. She crossed her arms under her breasts, and Add peeked secretly. Just a little. "Never mind. The joke was stupid. I'll leave and let you finish up." She turned to leave, and the Psyker suddenly got what she meant.

She'd never seen him with his hair down. "Ara~" When the martial artist turned, the scientist grinned. "I'm obviously Add. I could prove it to you, if you'd like...?"

Add had expected Ara to give in to his masculine wiles, but she shook her head again, pressing her lips into a fine line. "Don't you have someplace to be today, Add?"

He pressed a hand against his chest, feigning offense. "Well, excuse me for trying to seduce you, milady. Sheesh!" He chuckled again, a low rumble in his chest, as he walked past his guest. "I'll get you later, mark my words, my Queen." He whispered.

"Uh-huh. And I'll rescue my brother and stop the demons from invading Hamel for good." Ara spun on her heel, sticking her tongue out at Add.

Add pouted. "...that's mean, Ara."
