Sweet Like Honey, Passionate As a Storm[Xeh/Reiji]

[phantasmalunar]

"Help me what?" Reiji asked. "I don't need a loan or anything, really."

[mesmu]

Xeh shrugs, "I'm just the delivery boy, you're the customer."

[phantasmalunar]

Reiji was really confused. "I didn't ask for a delivery."

[mesmu]

"Its a metaphor."

[phantasmalunar]

Reiji was throughly confused. "Huh?"

[mesmu]

Xeh laughs lightly, "Reiji... We aren't what I was saying we were. I'm just here for you... In a nice way. That's all."

[phantasmalunar]

Reiji shook his head. "Um, I've got to get back to work." With that, he started out of the bathroom.

[mesmu]

Xeh sighs and lets him go. Once he's alone he frowns deeply, "What's wrong with me...?" And then he walks out as well.

[phantasmalunar]

Reiji quickly made his way back to his office and started on his other half of work. He figured staying busy would keep him from getting nervous about the pretty man he'd seen that morning and now in the bathroom. The guy was probably a stalker for the company, best just to ignore him.

[mesmu]

Xeh makes his way out and onto the streets. Only looking back once just to shake his head and continue on his way.

When Reiji finished his work, he headed home. It was around five, and he was immediately glomped by his son. Reiji promptly fell and looked up to be met with blue eyes; blue eyes that were so clear, they could never be mistaken for another color no matter the light. Reiji felt something tug at his hear when he thought that and sat up patting the boy on his head of feather soft black locks. Black, his grandmothers both definately had black hair, they were Japanese mostly, after all.

"Reiji!" the little boy exclaimed scooting off his father. He never called Reiji Dad or father, but Reiji didn't really mind, oddily.

"Hey, Tsubasa," Reiji greeted and stood back up.

"Tsubasa, how many times do I have to tell you not to jump about on your father like that," Yuzuru said coming out to greet her husband as well with a small peck to his cheek.

Reiji recieved the affectionate gesture, but stuck his tongue out at the boy playfully meaning he didn't like it. Tsubasa grinned, dimples showing. The dimples probably came from Yuzuru's side, probably.

Yuzuru smacked the back of his head. "Will you be eating supper with us?"

Reiji nodded. He hadn't eaten since he'd greeted the toilet at lunch. Remembering the incident that occured after, he felt a bit queasy. Perhaps it was best not to think on that.

[mesmu]

Xeh had made his way back to his ship by now. Fenis lays sprawled out on the controls and he blows black hair out of his eyes, "So you like that human?"

"Hmm?" Xeh responds as he makes something to eat, instant oatmeal. "Who are you speaking of?" He ponders as he comes to wait with his overly comfortable A.I.

The A.I. smiles, "Reiji. You looked for him."

Xeh sighs and looks down, a slight blush dusting his cheeks, "Something feels a mist is all."

"Aaahhh," Fenis laughs and rolls onto his knees. "Well then you must really like him. You're even worried." A soft ding saves the flushed Zercan from responding. He goes to get his food and have a quiet dinner...

Reiji climbed into bed that night, full and refreshed. However, a second later he was on edge as his wife climbed in, that skimpy negligee already starting to slide off her well formed body.

"Rei-ji," Yuzuru said climbing on top of him and stradling his hips. Reiji new what was coming next and gulped. He'd escaped this for the past week, but it seemed he wouldn't escape tonight, might as well please his wife quickly.

Yuzuru was in control of it for the most part, Reiji mostly just laid there. However, when he heard her start to urge his end, he new there was something wrong. Usually his body would just go through the actions on their own, but what was wrong today. He tried to focus on the attractive points of his wife, but that didn't work. Suddenly, the thought of the pretty man from that morning and the bathroom entered his mind and wouldn't leave. The next few seconds were probably the most passionate he'd ever been and he came to his wife's satisfaction, but as soon as the high had died down, Reiji's blue eyes, green colored in the slight darkness of the room were wide and filled of guilt. Yuzuru had started to smile at here husband until she saw that look and she turned on her side facing away from Reiji who was thankful for that.

"Reiji..." Yuzuru said quietly. "You didn't think of me, did you."

Reiji shut his eyes and clenched the sheets beneath him. His silence was answer enough. Neither left the bed, but they didn't sleep well either. When Reiji got up the next morning, Yuzuru wasn't there.

[mesmu]

Xeh had awoken for the third time since he first went to sleep. The first time he woke up panting and terrified. He couldn't remember of what, just that he could see wonderful blue eyes in his mind. They were watching him with hatred.

The second he had to take to a shower to rid himself of the thoughts... The feeling he had been through in that slumber. This time the same blue eyes had been closed in pure bliss, but when they opened full of guilt. And the owner of them had every right, even if it was just a twisted fantasy of Xeh's subconscious.

This last time he'd seen those blue eyes smiling at him. Laughing with him and he had held the other close. Everything about the last felt... Correct and perfect, as if he was... He was...

"Arrr," Xeh shakes his head and clears it of such thoughts. Then pulls on his shirt along shortly followed by a loosely tied tie. He had already pulled on jeans and brushed out his long hair. "Stop thinking about him."

Fenis' giggle shows he didn't go un-heard, but he ignores it. Snatching up his A.I. he goes out to find a restaurant. maybe the same place he stopped out side of yesterday...

[phantasmalunar]

Reiji was a hagard mess when he left that morning. He had planned on getting to the office early, but the smell of coffee greeted his noise and he turned his head longingly toward the dafe he'd been at the morning before. Yuzuru hadn't even offered him breakfast, he might as well stop and eat a brownie seeing as he'd lost his last one to the toilet.
