Eeee

Eeee. You readers you. I'll probably repeat this when I update What If (which might be today cuz I might just be this bored) you rock my socks. I was in for the hellacious long ass homework period which I worked from 930 til 215 yesterday, and what but 17 inbox messages await me for encouragement! You people rule. Thanks for reading my stories Akane! XD

But le anyhoo. Please tell me if you see errors in this, I really try to make this good. XD

AND, let me tell you that all of you are wrong about who the fairy is. XD Contrary to belief, it is not Marly. Although you are write about it being a man. :giggles: It was originally going to be Cloud. Yes, Cloud. XD But, I decided that it would be too OOC for my blood, and I haven't wrote Cleons enough for me to be comfortable.

So, its…someone else. :cackles: You'll see.\

haha. Wow. K so I've been abbreving this as COB, sniggle. and I totally almost wrote Corn Operated Boy. wow.

Coin Operated Boy…

Automatic joy, that is why want a coin operated boy…

The newly-awakened figure blinked, blue eyes gazing in wonder as he took in his surroundings. He looked up at the pink being. "What shall I learn today, Master?" it asked, staring with wide eyes.

"I'm not Master," the being replied shortly, "I am Consultant." The figure nodded, committing this data to memory.

"Where is Master?"

The being pointed at Riku, who was still snoring away on the couch. "There he is. You have to wake him up, though," the being explained.

"He is turned off?" The figure asked, confused.

"He is in sleep mode," the being stated. The figure nodded in understanding.

"I shall make his waking enjoyable, Consultant," the figure asserted as he stood up from his Indian-style position on the floor. He then walked over to the sleeping Riku, and, leaning over him, he reached down to cup his face in one hand and kissed him softly.

--((snicker))--

Riku was having the nicest dream. He quietly laid on the soft sand of the beach, watching the sunset. Suddenly, a shadow covered the sun and began to kiss him slowly, gently pressing its lips to his. Riku had no idea who the figure in the shadow was, and yet found that he didn't mind in the slightest. This is nice… he thought as he idly kissed the stranger back. Slowly, reality began to set in. Wait a minute. Riku slowly opened his eyes to find that his dream was happening, and that he was being kissed by someone.

A male someone.

A naked male someone.

Riku cried out, pushing the stranger off, now fully alert. "What the fuck is going on?" he said angrily, looking around at the newcomers. The naked boy was accompanied by a man dressed in pink drag. Riku narrowed his eyes.

I swear I locked the door… "Who are you? What do you want?" he asked harshly.

The pink one idly scratched the back of his head, smiling sheepishly. "Sorry about that," he said cheerfully, dragging the confused naked one off the floor and closer to him.

"M-Master d-didn't approve-" he said, beginning to twitch. The pink one smiled ruefully as the naked one seemed to shudder before he was still. The pink one sighed as he propped the naked one against a chair, his eyes closed as if he were asleep.

"What the hell is going on here?" Riku continued to ask, "Am I still dreaming?"

"Nope!" the pink one said cheerfully. "This is your dream come true!"

Riku raised an eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

The pink one chuckled and straightened up, as if he was about to launch into a prepared speech. "Let me start at the beginning. My name," the pink one said, bowing slightly, "is Axel. I have heard your wish for companionship; you must be excited to hear that I have granted it!"

Riku stared at this 'Axel.' "…What are you a fairy godfather? Godmother?"

Axel glared at him. "I'm a consultant. This is my uniform." He smiled brightly again. "Anyway! This is the companion I have selected for you based on your personality! He is sweet, inquisitive, charming, cute—"

"And out to rape me," Riku finished, eyeing the lifeless body warily. "What's wrong with it?"

Axel cleared his throat. "Unfortunately, such a gift has some drawbacks. This companion is not human. You will have to teach him human actions and behaviors." He paused briefly as Riku made a small noise of surprise. "However, this should not affect any 'experiences' at all!" he said cheerfully.

Riku looked at him warily. "What kind of exp-"

Axel cut him off. "It's simple really. All you have to do is place a quarter in this slot," he said as he pulled a quarter out of a bag and placed it in the slot on the figure's chest, "and he turns on!"

"Literally!" Axel whispered conspiratorially with a wink.

"Wait a minute—"

The figure's eyes opened again as he awakened. "What shall I learn today, Master?" he said automatically. He turned to Riku. "Why did you reject me?"

Riku was about to retort angrily before Axel cut him off, "You must start slow," he paused and looked at his nameplate, "Sora. All good relationships start with friendship."

Sora nodded and stored this data in his memory.

Axel helped Sora stand before turning to face Riku. "I left out one important thing," he continued, "There is a way to make Sora human."

"Oh?" Riku said, pretending he was interested.

"Yes. You must prove to us that you love Sora."

Riku sputtered, "What?! I am perfectly straight—"

"Well I must be off now!" Axel said, leaving a velvet bag of quarters on the coffee table. "If you have any questions, just call out for your favorite Consultant!"

"Why are you doing this?" Riku asked suspiciously.

Axel paused as he began to unclip his earring. The pink ball enlarged behind him as he smiled. "It's my job. The Superiors would kill me if I didn't do what their bidding. But don't worry about me!" he said as if Riku cared, "I'll be out soon! My contract is almost up, and by that time I'll have my own Consultant business!" He winked as he stepped into his pink sphere and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Riku stared at the place where the pink light was seconds before. Am I going insane…? He blinked furiously before looking over at Sora, who by now had fallen back into a state of sleep.

"Well," Riku said as he picked up a quarter and cautiously walked toward Sora, "Here we go…" He hesitated before he put the quarter in, scanning his features. His hair was spiked and brown, fitting perfectly with his toned physique. Riku subconsciously trailed his eyes up and down Sora's body before blushing and slipping the quarter in, feeling the need to see those blue eyes.

Sora's eyes fluttered open and he smiled. "What shall I learn today, Master?"

"To put on some clothes," Riku said shortly as he helped Sora stand. He paused as he passed the coffee table. He put four more quarters into Sora, ensuring that he would be active longer. He wordlessly guided Sora to his bedroom as Sora committed the layout of the house to his memory.

Riku rummaged through his drawers before throwing a pair of boxers at Sora. "Wear these," he said shortly before digging for pajama pants.

Sora nodded, comprehending quickly that his current lack of dress was inappropriate. "Master?" he asked tentatively.

Riku turned towards him, wordlessly giving him a pair of pajama pants. "Are you going to sleep again?"

Riku looked at his clock. It blinked 2:04 AM back at him. "Yes," he said before moving to change into his pajamas. He paused, realizing that Sora was still staring at him. "Could you turn around, please?" he said, trying to be nice to his new 'friend.'

Sora nodded, turning as Riku put on a pair of pajama pants. "M-Master?" he asked, once he was given permission to turn around.

"Yes?" Riku replied hesitantly as Sora slowly began to twitch.

"C-could I sleep with y-you As a f-friend?" Riku's eyes widened as Sora collapsed onto his bed, his eyes closed.

Why in hell would he ask such a question? Riku thought as he hefted Sora off of his bed and onto the floor next to it. It's not as if he could be sore from sleeping there. He looked slightly guilty at the thought. Still, that question sounded like a human behavior to me…Does he even know he's asleep? Does he feel cold? He tentatively took a blanket from his bed and draped it over him.

"That should work," he muttered resolutely before crawling into bed. "I just have to remember not to step on him in the morning."

As he lay in bed, the bizarre events of the early hours replayed in his mind. Sora…he thought, testing out the name in his mind, I have to learn more about you.

--((To be continued…))--

Wow that took quite a long bit of time. But hey, look at how long it is. XD

R AND R MY LOVELIES!
