Yo, hey everyone! Thanks 'Guests' for the reviews! Well here it is, another chap! Enjoy, later then!
Evil Genius: Chap. 7
Rated: M
He crept into the room and blinked at Shikamaru's screaming at the tv screen, angrily putting a handful of popcorn in his mouth. "You don't do that, you idiot!"
Hidan nearly laughed at the outburst, managing to hold it in for a moment. His laugh reached Shikamaru, who turned with a blush, as he swallowed the popcorn.
"Uhm, this is why I don't watch this." His eyes looked down, with the red still on his cheeks, and his fingers rubbing his neck, sheepishly.
Hidan thought the scene as cute. He went over to the couch and sat next to the other boy. "Yeah, I could do better, well did better." Shikamaru scooted away some.
Hidan's purple eyes ran over the boy, just before the blush disappeared. He turned his attention to the tv, and he smirked.
"Oh, I've seen this one. The guy gets caught because he breaks down with a stolen car, and, guess what, he calls someone to help him!" Shikamaru shook his head.
"Why would he do that?"
They continued to watch the channel, that same series on a marathon. It was getting into their third hour of watching it, and both boys were pointing out the unintelligent actions of the actors. The show was based on real events.
"Seriously? Why would you just throw a body in a swamp. They should at least put something to hold it under." Shikamaru grumbled. Hidan glared.
"Exactly, or someplace deeper!"
"An ocean is more preferable." Hidan laughed.
"If only you were fucking motivated Shika, everyone would look up to you like a king." Shikamaru just rolled his eyes and snatched the remote from the crazy one.
He went to change it. Hidan pounced on him.
"Hey, I'm watching this."
He stole the remote back and held it close.
"It's mine." Shikamaru narrowed his eyes at the statement.
"I am not watching any more of this crap."
"Crap?!"
Hidan stuck out his tongue.
"Well, I am, so fuck you." Shikamaru reached over him for the remote. Hidan just moved it out of his reach with a laugh. "It's mine, Shika."
"Don't call me that."
"Why not?"
Shikamaru didn't answer, and he tore the remote out of his hand, when Hidan grew confused at the other's glare. Hidan pouted on his side of the couch, and Shikamaru inwardly smirked. Shikamaru 1, Hidan 0, he thought.
He flipped through the channels and found the science channel, turning it on. It was silent for a bit, until a squeak of surprise struck the air. Shikamaru was not expecting Hidan to tackle him into the arm of the couch.
Hidan reached for the remote, but Shikamaru stretched it away. Hidan smirked at the challenge, and that little squeak from Shikamaru. He never thought he'd hear the other make a sound like that.
Shikamaru tried to kick him off, but that didn't work. He ordered.
"G-G-Get off me." Hidan drew his face close to Shikamaru's.
"Is the great Nara stuttering?" The red returned to Shikamaru's face.
"No." He pushed his knees into Hidan's chest. It didn't matter, but he was trying.
Hidan smirked and rose some so he wasn't touching him anymore. He did promise him. It still was hard to do, but he could manage, until Shikamaru allowed him. Hidan was sure he would grow on the genius.
Hidan outstretched his hand. His fingers were inches from the remote. He grabbed it, but ended up falling on top of the other, and it was fully laying on him, too. His head landed on Shikamaru's chest, and he grinned at the wild heartbeat.
Hidan couldn't help himself. He moved his head up to put his lips on the other ones before him.
Shikamaru's eyes widened, and he used all his strength to throw the silver-haired psycho off. He scrambled up to his feet. He dropped the remote, and he ran up the stairs.
Hidan tilted his head and stood, with a smirk still on his face. Playing hard to get, he thought in Shikamaru's direction.
Shikamaru sat in the tub. It was filled up with warm water, and he leaned back a bit. He had rushed up here for time alone, even locking the bathroom door. He rubbed his face. Why am I so confused, he thought in annoyance.
He hated to be confused, since he was, usually, not confused. He was smart, but this was different. His fingers went to his hair. He was about to take out the hair tie. He paused and sat up straight. He heard the handle turn.
He tensed, even if it was locked. There was a noise from the other side and a click sounded. He pushed the shower curtain to cover up the whole tub. That would explain how Hidan got in the house in the first place.
He didn't know how he missed that fact. The fact was that Hidan could pick locks, and he just did so. Shikamaru's thoughts froze. That means he's in here, his brain screamed at him. He heard the door open and close, and he shifted his body toward the wall.
Shikamaru hoped he was just using the toilet, but of course, that was not, the case... He slumped over, wishing that the maniac would leave. The truth was that he still feared the other. All the stories and events he seen made sure of that.
He saw the curtain pull back, slightly, and slip close, when the water shifted in the tub. Shikamaru held his breath, but nothing touched him. He relaxed some. Hidan wasn't doing anything, but he still was nervous.
Hidan had slipped in behind Shikamaru, and he looked at the boy's back. He wasn't going to touch him, yet. His legs were, actually, on each side of Shikamaru's body. His purple eyes watched the tensed figure relax.
It was only a little bit, but it was something. A real smile reached his face. Shikamaru was trusting him a little. Hidan moved a little closer, still not touching him. His thoughts wandered to the semi-kiss. He thought he should say something, but he wasn't sure what.
Shikamaru, immediately, tensed again.
"Shika." Hidan started. His voice was sure, and somehow reassuring to Shikamaru. He would never admit that.
Hidan put his hands on his shoulders. He wanted to try that kiss over. He cleared his throat.
"Shika." He whined for his attention. Shikamaru couldn't help it, his eyes rolled. He turned his head to observe Hidan.
"What?" He surprised even himself that his voice seemed even and normal. Hidan leaned forward.
"Can I?"
Shikamaru hesitated, watching Hidan's face come closer. If he was honest at the moment, he would probably say 'yes'. Hidan had his eyes closed, so he didn't see Shikamaru get closer, as well. Shikamaru panicked at his actions, and jumped out of the tub. He slipped on the floor, and he scrambled out the door.
He shut the door behind him, face red again.
Hidan finished cleaning with a frown. He debated on maybe he should have been a little less forceful, maybe he should have washed his back? Nah, but that would probably be funny to see the other's expression.
He came out of the bathroom to find Shikamaru behind the opposite side of the bed, far away from the bathroom. The dark hair even darker, since it was still drenched from the water.
Hidan approached with only a towel on.
"Sorry, Shika, I thought.." He shook his head and crouched by the boy. Shikamaru was hugging his knees, and wearing all black, for some reason.
It wasn't just him that he was annoyed at. Shikamaru couldn't believe he was going to allow something like that to happen.
Shikamaru looked over. His face darkened in that red color.
"Where are your clothes?" Hidan shrugged.
"They're dirty." Shikamaru stood, avoiding touching the crazed boy. "I can borrow some of yours."
Shikamaru stated. "Thanks for asking."
"No problem!" He went to the dresser and found some clothes that would be too big for Shikamaru. He started to put them on, throwing the towel on the bed.
"Hidan! I'm still here, you know." Hidan glanced at him with a smirk.
"So?"
Shikamaru just stared at the wall, pink cheeks. Hidan loved embarrassing the Nara.
"Hey, Shika, wanna go outside tonight?"
Shikamaru went to object, but Hidan jumped on the bed next to him.
"Comeon, let's have fun."
"Your 'fun' is different from mine." Hidan pouted.
"Please, just for a walk, then I'll do whatever you want me to do when we get home." A sigh came from the other boy.
"Fine." Hidan hugged him.
"Yes!" He rubbed his cheek against Shikamaru's chin. Shikamaru pushed him away.
"Stop touching me, Hidan." Hidan frowned, but he didn't argue, for once.
Shikamaru stood, seeing the darkness outside.
"Let's go."
"Where?" Shikamaru went to the bedroom door.
"For that walk." He mumbled.
