Fic Bits
Mayuko's hand softly brushed the bangs away from his eye and Hatori hardly dared to move. Her touch was soft, hesitant; the look in her eyes was one he couldn't even begin to decipher.
As her hand trailed towards his jawline, Hatori covered it with his own, squeezing lightly. Mayuko gave him an embarassed sort of smile, a faint blush beginning to stain her cheeks as his grip became tighter.
It was quite a treat to see the normally brash Mayuko look so shocked.

"I have faith in him."
"The idiot is going to screw it up again."
"I don't know. He could pull it off."
Kagome glared at Inuyasha and Shippou. "Both of you are horrible!"
Inuyasha leaned back, lazily curling his hand around the handle of the Tessaiga. "The monk has a dirty mind. It's impossible for him to think straight around anything female."
Kagome bit her lip, but refused to say anything in return. Instead, she leaned further out of the bushes and concentrated on Miroku and Sango. She watched with growing excitement as Sango began to relax, actually initiating conversation with Miroku. A squeal was cut off by Inuyasha roughly clamping a hand over her mouth. She jumped, blushing as his grip became tighter.
"Be quiet or they'll know you're watching again."
Shippou leaned over Inuyasha's shoulder, a bored look on his face. "I don't think they would be surprised. She has been spying on them all week."
Kagome huffed, mumbling some choice words against Inuyasha's hand as the two continued to compare notes on her habit. They just didn't understand the importance of true romance!

Kahoko groaned as she set the violin carefully in the case. Her back was sore and her fingers were nearly numb from the countless hours of practice she had endured these past few days. Carefully, she began to stretch her arms high above her head, interlacing her fingers and stretching the muscles as far as she could stand. With a happy sigh, she felt some of the tension in her shoulders begin to melt away.
It was still hard to believe that everything was truely happening. Never in her life had Kahoko ever thought of playing a musical instrument. She had also never realized just how much work it was.
Picking up the violin case, Kahoko lightly ran her fingers over it. Despite the aches and pains, the violin was a beautiful instrument and the songs it had helped her produce were amazing. Something in her heart stirred whenever the melodies were played. Kahoko could never regret her promise to Lili. Music really did bring out the best in others.

Kyouya barely blinked as Tamaki pounced, grabbing a hold of his arm and sniffling in despair. Nodding every so often and interjecting a word here and there, Kyouya didn't let Tamaki's hysterics get in the way of his paperwork.
Soon, Tamaki was giving himself a pep talk and Kyouya found himself encouraging his friend. With a satisfied grin, Tamaki stood tall, brushing off his school jacket. "I can always count on you."
Kyouya nodded, a small smile appeared as Tamaki flounced away to take on the twins. Life was never dull with Tamaki around.
Many one liners
[Chiaki/Maron; sin]
"It must be a sin to look so good."
Maron turned around and glared - a warning that Chiaki chose to ignore. With a smile planted firmly on his face, he approached Maron and casually placed his arm around her waist. She seemed to calm a little, but the moment Chiaki's hand began to slip lower, Maron jumped in surprise, her fist flying towards Chiaki's face.
[Chiaki/Maron, Access; honestly]
Once Maron had finally agreed to date Chiaki, the man become unbearable. Access had taken to stuffing his ears with cotton just to get through the nights. It wasn't so much the public displays of affection - Maron wasn't fond of them - it was listening to Chiaki prattle on after every date.
[Chiaki/Maron; stars]
Chiaki loves the look on Maron's face as she gazes at the stars - there is almost a child-like wonder in her eyes.
[Chiaki/Access; kiss]
Access deepened the kiss, not even trying to think about why Finn would be kissing him in the first place. Opening his eyes, he was meet with the sight of an equally stunned Chiaki.
Backing away, he whispered, "This never happened."
Chiaki could only nod in silence.
[Maora/Maguri; first time]
Maguri covered his ears, shouting at the top of his lungs to drown out the sound of Maora telling the othe rmembers of council about the first time they had shared a bath.
[Chiaki/Maron/Fin; possession]
Chiaki soon learned that dating Maron involved putting up with an angry Finn whenever he kept Maron out past her 'curfew.'
[Chiaki/Maron; regardless]
Maron mumbled something under her breath but Chiaki couldn't quite make it out; after asking her to repeat herself, Chiaki heard, "I love you even if you are a pervert."
[Chiaki/Maron; wind]
Chiaki loved to sit on his balcony, knowing sooner or later Maron would come outside and lean on the railing to watch the stars; Access said it was because Chiaki just wanted to peep but Chiaki argued that he loved the way her hair looked as the wind gently toyed with it.
[Maron; breath]
Every time Chiaki kissed her, Maron felt as if she would never be able to catch her breath.
[Fin/Maron; touch]
Finn gently caressed Maron's hair each night as the girl slept; she hoped Maron was sleeping peacefully.
[Access/Chiaki; smile]
Time passes so quickly, but one thing Access is sure he will never forget is the memory of Chiaki's smile.
[Chiaki/Maron; swoon]
Maron melted into the kiss, letting her senses take over as Chiaki was forced to help her keep her balance.
[Girls/Chiaki/Maron; girls]
Maron smacked the back of Chiaki's head, "Don't you ever stop flirting?"
[Chiaki/Maron/Boys; boys]
As Chiaki's brow rose in disbelief, Maron stuck her tongue out and replied, "It's different for girls."
[Maron; faith]
There were so many times doubt began to creep into her thoughts, but Maron held firm to her faith - she knew God was always watching over her.
[Maron; scream]
Maron enjoyed the last few minutes of her bath, ignoring Finn's shouts of being late.
[Noin/Maron; tilt]
Noin tilted Maron's face upwards, wistfully remembering long strands of blonde hair.
[Noin/Maron/Chiaki; own]
Chiaki held Maron tightly against his chest, glaring at Noin.
[Miyako&Maron; tears]
Over the years, Maron had shed many tears, but as she held Miyako's son in her arms she couldn't help but think they had all been worth it to reach this point.
[IshiHime, "traces of you"]
Orihime carefully placed the finishing touches on her project for the sewing club, trying not to focus on the empty seat to her left.
[Yoruichi/Soi Fong, black]
Yoruichi loves to tease Soi Fong. She knows the younger girl's weak points and takes full advantage of every one of them. Yoruichi smiles when Soi Fong fights the blush rising against her cheeks. Leaning closer, Yoruichi runs her fingers through Soi Fong's dark hair, idly thinking up new and exciting ways to catch her off guard.
[Rosette+Satella, battle]
Rosette watched Satella carefully, eyeing the bottle of liquor on the table. "Anything you can do, I can do far better."
"I'd like to see you try." Satella's brow is raised in mock disbelief, the challenge set.
Rosette slams her fist into the table. "You're on!"
[Nao/Mikoto; sanctuary]
Nao smiled, nun habit slightly askew as she relaxed against one of the sun-warmed stone pillars hidden within the gardens of Fuuka Academy. It was almost peaceful in the area, even with Mikoto bouncing around in glee. Her endless energy was infectious and it wasn't long before Nao joined Mikoto in her search for random treasures.
[Nao/Mikoto/Mai; jealous]
Nao playfully teases Mai whenever she frets over Mikoto though she can't help but feel jealous that no one cares for her in quite the same way.
[Mai/Mikoto/Reito; mine]
Mikoto glares at Reito while perched on Mai's back, "MINE."
[Tate+Mai+Reito, fireworks]
The fireworks explode overhead and Mai smiles at Reito, enjoying the show. He leans forward to kiss her and the butterflies explode in her stomach. There is a shout and Mai jumps back, spotting Tate. Mai feels almost guilty as Tate glares at her, unable to comprehend the thoughts racing through her mind.
[Ahiru, smile]
When Ahiru had first started her misson, she wanted nothing more than to see her prince smile; as she relaxed in the comfort of the lake, it was Fakir's smile that calmed her.
[movie!Pyro, "at the end of the day"]
John sighed in relief as he collapsed into the worn chair. The battle had been tough - thought he was loathe to admit it - and he has almost lost her. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out the Zippo and lovingly traced the designs etched on the surface. As long as she was alright, he had nothing else to worry about.
[S/J any 'verse, "bake sale"]
The sight of Kitty and Rogue running from the kitchen should have been his first clue - Logan slumped across the table should have been the second. Nothing began to register in Scott's mind until Jean presented him with a tray of various deserts.
[Logan/Marie movieverse, "trials and tribulations"]
Logan grunted, unimpressed by Marie's rant. "You think you got it bad? Try being damn near indestructible. Do you know how many more pricks like Summers I'm bound to run into over the years?"
[X-Men Evoverse, Avalanche/Rogue - heatwave]
"You're no fun in the summer."
Rogue just flipped Avalanche off as she passed - as satisfying as it would be to drain him, she didn't want his thoughts in her head.
