Seventeenth Case

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ it's a beautiful day! The sun is shining, the monkeys are screeching, there's free cake at the inn and a giant banner that says (more or less) HAPPY BELATED ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY TEAR AND HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY KAITO. Because with Kaito's luck with birthdays, Kazuha isn't taking any chances this time. ]

Okay, so that's two cakes and presents, and the food's done, so that should take care of everything! I'm definitely gonna make sure nothing goes wrong this time! No crazy events, no... love nesting, and no fish in sight! This'll be the best birthday ever!!

... Wait, if we're celebrating Kaito-kun's again, then-- I skipped mine, didn't I?

((Yeah, Tear's anniversary present sucked, and Kaito has the worst luck with birthdays, so Kazuha's combining things. Go ahead and threadhop whoever you so wish. Or just show up to snag some cake.))

[ also staring intently! And dammit, there's that hint of a smile before she's suppressing it again. ]

*and after a deep breath* ... Well, I guess we don't have to worry 'bout gettin' naked after all, seeing as we already had a bath.

... [ long week + all of this + THAT WAS THE MOST ABSURD COMMENT EVER is just going to make her burst out laughing. ]

*and seeing as that is contagious and that was what he wanted, he will be joining her*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

I-I bet you feel all nice and clean now, don't you?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*flicking some soap bubbles at her* You-- You tell me.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ still giggling a little, but she really did need that. ]

Well, with that stunt you pulled earlier, I don't think you'll be clean until I pay you back. [ leaning in to repay him for that one kiss ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

What stun-- *well then*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ pulling back after a minute, and a little quieter ] That one.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... Oh yeah. That one.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

... [ lifting herself up ] We should go see if they've come back--

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*grabbing her collar* Oi.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

--! [ glancing back at him ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

First off, they'll live if we're not there for two minutes. Second, I'm not letting you go that easy.

... Third, you really want to go back out there dripping wet?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

... Ah. [ this face says she wasn't even thinking about that :( ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... I thought so.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

... So what was that about not letting me go that easily? [ looking around for a towel ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

Well, I've got a mission tonight.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

A mission?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

You got it.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

What mission?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... I dunno if I can tell you, Kazuha. It's top secret, classified, that kinda thing.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

... I won't tell. [ KICKED PUPPY ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

I don't know...

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

Please?
