Pocky or My Lips?

~…Pocky Game…~

Black, one of the most fearsome and dangerous role holder in Wonderland, yet, when it comes to his woman he is like a little puppy listening to everything she says, especially when she is angry. Mostly towards him.

Today he did something that made Lucian's head blow up with anger. He didn't clean his room that she had told him a few time changes ago to clean. But that is not what made her angry.

Black called Lucian an old hag who won't shut her mouth.

When he realize what he had said, it was too late. Before he could apologize to her his head was slammed against the wall by Lucian, her eye color changing from blue to green as she stared at him with a crazy look on her face.

"What'd you just call me, Black?" Lucian asked, her right eye twitching as she tighten her grip on Black's head.

Black literally peed in his underwear, only a little when he saw Lucian's pupils turning into slits. It's the other Lucian – Lucy. Or what he likes to call, his demonic girlfriend, who he still loves but scares the shit out of him. Looking at Lucy reminds Black of her father who used to bully him back in the past.

Leo loves to play with Black and White when he was still living in Wonderland. He does it often just to kill time. Sometimes Leo would overdo it and kill one of them, mostly Black, but, it's fine because the Jokers always returns to life.

Anyways, Black hope that Lucy doesn't kill him. It hurts to die, and he is not like his counterpart, White.

"Uhh…" Black slowly looked down, finding the floor quite interesting for some reason. "…my loveable old hug…?" He laughed awkwardly. Hey, if he is going to get hurt anyway, might as well add a bit of humor in it.

Bad move.

"Guh!"

Lucian slammed his head back on the wall. Blood started flowing down Black's face. Her strength is ridiculously strong that when she slammed Black's head on the wall it left a tiny crater.

"You little shit." Lucian's eyes narrowed. "If I didn't have self-control, I would have chop that head of yours, honey."

Lucian let go of Black and walked out of the room but not before slamming the door shut.

"Self-control…" Black mumbled as he sat back up, dusting his hair from the debris of broken stones. "That's not self-control…"

It amazes him that he is still alive after being slammed to the wall twice.

"You shouldn't call our love an old hag." A cheerful voice said. "I mean, look at what she did to you."

Black turned his head back over his shoulder and saw White without his stupid hat lying on his bed and munching a chocolate bar. He look so relax in Black's bed that it pisses Black.

"Would you stop appearing in my room like that and use the goddamn door instead!"

"This is more fun." White smiled and sat up on the edge of the bed. "I'm not here to make fun of you because you screwed up. I'm here to tell you to apologize to Lucian later after you change into a new set of uniform. You don't want that peed smell on you for the rest of the day now, do you?" He laughed, clearly enjoying the pissed look on Black's face.

"Shut up!" Black shouted angrily and grabbed the nearest item he could get a hold of, which happened to be a dagger, and throws it to White.

White easily dodged the dagger by simply tilting his head to the right. "Ahaha! Was she that scary to make you pee in your underwear?"

"She looked like Leo when he's about to pull a damn horrible prank on me."

"Ohhh."

"And what the hell is wrong with her today?" Black asked, getting up from the floor. "She's three times scarier than the time she almost killed Nightmare for hurting you in the dream realm."

"And this is why I love our Lucian!" White beamed a bright smile at Black. "She cares so much about me!"

"Fuck off!"

"But anyway, I believe Lucian is at her period. The monthly period that human calls."

"Arghhh." Black sighed out loud and bang his bloody head on the wall. "That shit."

"It's not that bad." White said. "We have dealt with this before. Remember when Alice was still in this world. She became emotional during her monthly period."

Black frowned, remembering Alice and her annoying monthly period. She would bash and act like a little kid in front of Blood and to the others. Even when she refuses to admit that she loves the crazy bastard, she becomes honest when she is in her monthly period. The Role Holders hates it.

Even Peter avoided Alice.

"Now I want you to bring the boiling down. It'll make things better for you." White said.

"Hold on." Black turned his body back to White. "You're making this sound like I'm the only one who should do this."

"Well, yes." White nodded his head. "I have a meeting to attend and I will be out of town for a few…I don't know. But I'll be back, probably by the time Lucian's monthly period ends." He smiled.

"You shit head! You just don't want to deal with her!"

There is no way Black is going to be left alone with Lucian, especially when she is angry.

"I would gladly stay here and take care of Lucian, but, I cannot." White said. "The meeting is very important for the Circus."

No, White is lying. He doesn't want to deal with Lucian in her monthly period.

"Just make Lucian happy while I'm gone. But before you can do that you have to apologize to her. And this is a great chance for you to spend time with her. You've been busy with work, and I'm always the one by her side, not that I don't enjoy it. I love it."

"Fine." Black sighed and crossed his arms. It's true he hadn't been spending time with Lucian because of his work. But he knows that Lucian understands him.

~…Pocky Game…~

After cleaning his room and changing into a new uniform he begun to search for Lucian. He didn't find her in the prison. So he went to the kitchen. That is the third place she goes to when she wants to be alone. She ends up cooking a lot of food whenever she is in the kitchen, that both Black and White have to finish just to make her happy.

When he did not find her in the kitchen he went to the Circus. Again, she was not there. Some of the workers said that she went to the Hatter's mansion.

Black cursed inside. He doesn't want to go all the way to that bastard's place, even though Blood sees Lucian as his little sister. Black is a bit thankful that Blood treats Lucian kindly, but he still hates Blood.

The good thing is before Black could leave the Circus he saw Rein in the backstage, helping some workers paint some woods for the next show.

"Hey, Rein." Black called out.

Rein lifted his head up and smiled when he saw Black walking towards him. "Ah, Black. What are you doing here? Done with work?"

"Yeah. Do you know where Lucian went?"

"Yes. She is at the lake." Rein nodded his head and a worried look appeared on his face. "By the way, has something happened? Lady Lucian is…she is not her usual self. She glared at the children today and even told them to, um, fuck off."

"Monthly period." Black said in an indifferent tone.

"Oh, I see."

"Well, I gotta go find her before she decides to burn down my forest." Black said and walked away. "You're in charge, Rein."

"Okay."

The lake is about half a mile away from the Circus, and it is the place where Lucian goes to when she wants to stargaze. There are not a lot of trees surrounding the lake so it is a perfect place for her to watch the stars.

When Black finally got to the lake, he saw Lucian underneath a tree curled up into a ball underneath her favorite white and soft blanket with tiny light purple clouds that Black and White bought her.

"Lucian." Black softly called out as he stepped towards her.

She was sleeping.

Black kneeled down behind her and lightly shook her shoulder. "Hey, Lucian. Wake up."

If she wants to sleep she might as well sleep in her room and not in the forest. Who knows when Ace might appear and kidnap her.

"Mn…" Lucian stirred and slowly opened her eyes, revealing normal green eyes.

Good, she's back to normal. Black thought. "Why are you sleeping out here?"

"…stomach…" She whispered and closes her eyes again.

"Huh?"

"My stomach hurts."

"Ah, it must be your period." Black said. "Don't worry, I'll bring you back if you can't walk."

"No." Lucian shook her head and looked up at Black. "I like it here. The fresh air helps me."

"Fine." Black said and he sat down, leaning against the tree. "Put your head on my lap." He pulled Lucian up to him. She stayed quiet as he gently rub her stomach. White said this helps a woman.

"I'm sorry." Lucian said turning her head to face him.

"For what?" Black asked.

"For slamming your face on the wall."

"Don't worry about it." Black smiled and softly pinches her cheek. "I shouldn't have called you an old hag. You're my girlfriend and…a boyfriend don't ever call their woman old. I'm sorry."

"This is why I can never stay mad at you and at White." Lucian sat up and wraps her arms around Black's shoulders. She smiled and continued, "Do you know what you and White look like when you two apologize to me?"

"No."

"Like cute little puppies." She smiled and lightly kisses the tip of Black's nose. "It's cute. Your eye automatically gets bigger."

"I love it when you smile." Black said.

"Huh?" Lucian blinked and pulled her head away from him.

"I love seeing you smile more than seeing you with an angry expression."

"Oh, Black." Lucian smiled lovingly and rested her head onto Black's chest.

After a while of silence and listening to the sound of water, Black left Lucian to get her some snacks. She still didn't want to leave the lake.

~…Pocky Game…~

He returned with a bag full of snacks, most of them are Lucian's favorite. One snack that he brought with him is a box of chocolate pocky. White told him that if his apology does not work, use pocky to make Lucian forgive him.

Since he is already forgiven he will use the pocky in a different way with Lucian.

Sitting in front of Lucian, he watches her eat two chocolate bars in an instant. She must be really hungry.

"Hey, Lucian. Are those chocolates sweet?" Black asked.

"Yes." Lucian happily nodded her head.

"Do you want to taste something sweeter?"

"Like what?"

"Me." Black smiled seductively, putting his chin on his palm.

"!" In an instant, Lucian's face turned bright red. "W-what are you saying?!"

"Close your eyes."

"…Mn." She did close her eyes.

"Come on, close your eyes."

"F-fine."

Black smiled, loving her expression. He should more often.

"Now open your mouth a bit."

"Black, this is-"

Before she could finish a single was put into her mouth. She opened her eyes and looked at Black. They're going to do this? She remember playing this game with White, and White took the game a few level up with her.

"You played this game with White, and I wanna play it too with you."

She nodded her head once, never taking her eyes from his.

Trapping Lucian in between his arms he began to lean forward. Each bite of the pocky made Lucian's heart race. She closed her eyes, feeling Black's hot breath hitting her face. The last bite came and their lips made contact. And yes it was sweet.

She was a bit disappointed when Black pulled away a few second in their kiss.

"How was the taste?" Black asked, licking the corner of his lips.

"Very sweet." Lucian answered, and she looked down to the ground.

"The pocky was good, but your lips was better, sweet, and very delicious." Black said and he pushes Lucian down on her back to the ground with him on top of her.

"!" Lucian's eyes slightly widen. Their noses are touching each other and Black's lips were tempting.

"I wanna taste your sweet lips again." Black whispered as his fingers locks in between Lucian's. "Can I?"

"Yes."

Black hummed, licked her lips once, and then finally kissed her sweet lips.

The two didn't come home until night came, and when they did, Black was carrying Lucian in his arms, who was already fast asleep.

Rein said nothing about the hickies on both Black and Lucian's neck. There were more hickies on Lucian. He also did not comment about that one. He welcomed them home with a smile.

"Welcome home. How was your and Lucian's day?" Rein asked. It was hard to look at both without looking at the hickies.

"It was very fun." Black answered with a tiny smile on his face.

Indeed it was fun. Who knew that they can have a ton of fun just by using a box of pocky. Black made a mental note to buy a lot of pockies when they go grocery shopping again in town.
