Enjoy!

Law's watch showed midnight. What on earth had he been thinking? Nothing probably. But when he saw Law kissing this blue haired girl, he just snapped.

Cursing his own lack of control he drowned the rest of the vodka in one big gulp. Afterwards he stared into the glass with an absentminded expression. He didn't want these feelings. And hell, he really didn't want to be jealous. Sighing lowly he gave Marco a sign.

"Thank you for saving me." His head snapped over. Wait, what? Law looked at him a little shyly. Kid raised a hairless eyebrow. "I hardly know her, ya know." The relief that the redhead felt washing over him set him on edge. Why, for the love of God, did he feel this way?

Kid watched how the dark haired male took a sip from his Whiskey. "And why did you agree to dance with her then?" The question was out before he could stop himself. He could see how Law hesitated, then he shrugged. The redhead nodded. He got out of this save once more; thanks to Law.

They sat there for a moment before the next obstacle showed up. It was blue haired and seemed rather upset. How could he have believed that she would just fucking disappear? He shot a quick glance to Law who visibly flinched at Vivi's sight.

The woman fought her way through to them, glaring at Law angrily. "Will you save me again?" Kid met the other's gaze and smiled a little. He didn't even want to know why he felt so happy all out of the sudden. Looking around the room quickly his smile turned into an evil smirk.

"I only see one option…" Emptying his glass the dark haired man looked at him. "I guess I don't really want to know." Law said with a soft grin. Kid shook his head and grabbed the other male's hand. The first two steps, the other followed easily. Then Law realized where they were heading and started resisting.

"Mister Eustass, you can't be serious. Not the dance floor!" Kid turned around and looked at him with an evil smile. And then they had reached the dance floor and Kid pulled the dark haired male closer. "That will solve the lady problem for quite a while." The redhead was relieved to hear a hint of laughter in Law's words.

Moving in time with the music, Kid felt how the dark haired male pressed a little closer to him than absolutely necessary. Smirking, he wrapped his arms around his dance partner, switching to a much more seductive way of moving. If Law would ask about it tomorrow, Kid could still blame the whole thing on the alcohol. Maybe…

The music changed and Kid felt his heart clench. Not this song… Please. Nope – bad luck today. Though when he looked at the hot man in his arms; maybe not that bad. Law rested his head against the redhead's shoulder and slowed his steps down a little.

"Law… This might lead to very stupid rumors, you realize this?" He felt the other chuckle in his arms. "I'll just blame it on you and the alcohol." Kid smirked, that sounded brutally logical. Kid looked over to the bar. Marco met his gaze and gave him a quick nod. So Vivi had left.

"Let's hope she was drunk enough to not remember why exactly she didn't stay to kiss you some more." The song was over and Kid let go of the other male, walking back to the source of alcohol.

When he woke up the next morning he had another beautiful hangover. Looking around Kid quickly realized that he was not in his bed. Was this even his appartement? Taking a better look around he found that he indeed was at home but not in his bedroom. "Why am I sleeping on the couch?" His own voice seemed a little too loud this morning, but he was pretty used to the feeling.

A low chuckle sounded and he sat up carefully. "Why are you here?" Law held out a cup of coffee to him. Grateful he reached for it, taking in the lovely sent before he looked up at the dark haired male again. "Explain, please."

Law laughed lowly and said: "Well… at the end of the night, when Marco kicked us out, you were completely sloshed and I brought you home. You showed me your bedroom and decided that I had to stay here because I wouldn't be able to get home safely." Kid looked at him disbelievingly.

"Oh and because your bed looked so very comfortable I decided to indeed sleep here." At this the redhead burst out laughing and nearly spilled his coffee over the couch. Law smiled. Picking up his own coffee, the dark haired man sat down beside him. "About yesterday..."

"Blame it on the alcohol." Kid said and forced a smirk to appear on his lips. "And hey… it will solve the women issue for a while. If you are seriously interested in that blue haired girl though…" Law shook his head, smiling.

Checking his watch the dark haired male got up again. "I need to go now. My shift starts in a few minutes and well…Guess I'll see you on Monday." Kid nodded. He watched the other man leaving the apartment and sighed once Law was out of the building. "Shit…"

His memories of the previous evening were mostly blurred, but he could remember the dance. As if he could forget the feeling of Law's warm body against his. Grasping for the pieces of his blurred memories he allowed himself for the first time to admit how much he wanted the other man. "This is going to hurt so fucking badly…"

Just to let you know.. I don't dislike Vivi. But I needed someone for that role and she was kind of the first that came to my mind...
