Law knew that he had to do somethingabout his dreams (and thoughts). This couldn't go on like that any longer. The studying session with Kid hadn't necessarily helped to clear his confused mind. The redhead could be a really good teacher if he wanted to. But most of the time he apparently just didn't give a shit about school in general.
Sighing Law looked at his empty cup. He had taken a little detour to drop into a Starbucks. His coffee just needed to be good quality, though one could think he got enough of Starbucks during the working hours.
A second cup stood silently on the table beside him. Kid hadn't shown up for the first lesson and by now the coffee was almost cold. Law didn't even know why he had bought the second coffee in the first place. Kid never showed up for the first lesson.
Dropping his head onto the desk he sighed again. It wasn't true. Since the beginning of December Kid had been in almost every first lesson; not in the last ones though. Considering emptying the second cup he stared at the open door once more. And this was when Eustass Kid decided to show up for classes today.
He searched the classroom for Law's favourite places and when spotting him, walked over. "Please tell me that's mine." The dark haired male smirked and shoved the cup a little closer to Kid. Greedily the other man grabbed it. "Sorry it's cold. It was warm at the beginning of the first lesson, though." The redhead just laughed.
When the last bell finally rang, Kid smirked at him. "What about getting ourselves a good hot coffee and do some homework?" Law remembered that they had been sitting in Shaki's coffee shop a week ago. After that afternoon the dreams had started. Did he really want to risk getting deeper into this than absolutely necessary?
"Sure…" Why did he say this..? Sighing inwardly Law packed his bag and got up. "Not the Louge Town Coffee though." Kid nodded, remembering the embarrassing incidents from the week before quite clearly. "Starbucks?" He just nodded.
"I would have thought that you wouldn't go to a Starbucks in your free time." Law laughed at the comment. "That's what most people think. But they do have the best coffee after all." Kid nodded, turning around a corner and heading for one of the city's many Starbucks coffee shops.
A few moments later Law was fighting his way through a crowded Starbuck, desperately trying to not spill any of the expensive coffee. Kid had gotten them a table in one of the more secluded corners where it wasn't too loud for studying. "Finally…" he muttered when he had reached the table and placed the cups on it.
"Guess today we need to go through the grammar part, right?" He had just taken a sip of his coffee when Kid asked. Law's face turned into a mask of sour resistance but he took out the grammar book. "Really…?" he asked just to be sure. He could think of so many better ways to pass their time. Taking a deep breath he tried to control his wandering thoughts.
Kid smirked. "It's not like I wouldn't know better things to do with you… But as you tortured me with Chemistry yesterday, you have now to go through grammar." Blushing a little, Law hid his face behind his cup. This sounded a lot like what he had just been thinking.
The redhead raised a hairless eyebrow and opened the book. Probably he didn't really want to know. And certainly, Law thought, it was better if he never found out. How should he explain that he felt the nearly irresistible urge to kiss the other male? He wasn't gay, so matter of fact he didn't understand why exactly he wanted to do it in anyways.
"Are you even listening?" Law flinched and woke from his daydreaming. "Oh… eh… yes?" Kid laughed and poked him. What else should he be doing? He needed to react to the unspoken accusation but didn't really know what to say. Great, just great.
"Trafalgar?" He nodded, unable to speak because he wasn't sure that he wouldn't say something really, really stupid. Kid bent over, the redhead's face suddenly painfully close to his. Law turned his head away, trying to hide his sudden blush.
The other male leaned back in his chair now, looking at him sceptically. He managed an unsecure smile and looked down on the papers. "Let's get this over with." "One day you'll need to explain this to me..." Automatically Law shook his head, avoiding Kid's eyes.
The afternoon passed painfully slow and Law was relieved when he finally got out of the Starbucks. Waiting at the bus stop seemed to become the last big challenge of the day. Kid had picked another cigarette from Law and was waiting with him. They didn't need to go into the same direction and the dark haired male was glad when he saw his bus coming around the corner.
Kid flicked the cigarette away and bent closer to Law. He raised an eyebrow, searching the redhead's face for a sign of what he planned. "Kid..?" The bus was nearly there. And then Kid's lips were on his. Law's eyes widened, his heartbeat sped up. He could smell the smoke of the cigarette and a hint of coffee. The bus stopped beside them. Before Law could react, the redhead was gone. Before getting into the bus, the dark haired male looked around hastily but couldn't find a hint of the other man anymore.
What was wrong with Tuesdays? They always messed with his head. He brushed with his fingers over his lips. Just like in his dreams, Kid really could kiss...
