Began: August 6, 2013
Summary: Then he spoke, "I look forward to beating you on the exam, Yagami-kun." This was new; this was interesting, and Raito loved every second of it. "And I look forward to beating you, Ryuuzaki-san." AU. Old Dialogue study revamped. LxLight.
Warnings: None
Author's Notes: Many thanks to reminiscent-afterthought for her long and very thoughtful review. I appreciate it very much. It made my day! You mentioned the use of hyphens rather than dashes. I don't have Microsoft Word, which automatically makes those changes and sometimes I forget to edit it once it's on FF. I'll try to remember that from now on!
III-
The test proctor was amazed. "P-perfect again?!"
Raito scoffed, unamused. "Of course," he grinned. "I never have less than perfect scores." He stated this as though it were something commonplace, as though everyone always had perfect scores. "Did you not look through my file at all?"
The test proctor exclaimed, embarrassed, "You two must be genii! I-I... To-oh will be honored to have you!" The man stumbled through his words. "You should be begin preparing your speeches as the top students." He bowed quickly and rushed away.
"'You two must be genii!'" Raito mocked, unimpressed. "No, really? I hadn't noticed."
Ryuuzaki stared at his younger companion, biting on his thumb. "Raito-kun is very sarcastic."
Raito rolled his cinnamon-colored eyes. "What ever are you talking about? I'm not sarcastic at all."
"There's that sarcasm again..." Ryuuzaki paused. "Are you going to write a speech?"
Perhaps Ryuuzaki had rubbed off on Raito more than the brunette originally thought, because he saw no point in doing so, and he voiced this quite vocally. "Why waste my time? They'll be impressed no matter what I say."
"If they understand half of what we say."
Raito shrugged, grinning. "True."
IV-
Raito was sitting on a bench under a sakura tree, enjoying the nice weather. His cinnamon-colored eyes slipped closed momentarily, only to snap open as Ryuuzaki sat down in his trademark crouch.
The dark-haired man asked nonchalantly, "Would Raito-kun like to have coffee with me?"
Raito grinned. "Are you asking me out?"
"Yes," Ryuuzaki stated.
"Blunt as always, Ryuuzaki-san." Raito leaned over to place a kiss on the elder's cheek, grinning all the while. "But of course."
Ryuuzaki stood up, a light blush dusting his cheeks. He offered a hand to his companion, and Raito took his hand with a soft smile.
As they left, a group of girls squealed. "Are Yagami-kun and Ryuuzaki-kun together? KYAAAA!"
