17 May 2006 - The coldest eyes and the cruellest hands (GOKUSEN: Kumiko/girl!Sawada) 63 Words.
The first time they have sex, Kumiko looks at Sawada and her closed eyes and remembers the first look they ever shared, and the utter disdain that lay there; she doesn't realise that Sawada feels Kumiko's hand on her bare skin and the first thought that enters her head is the way it felt open-palmed when the slap echoed across her cheek.

10 July 2008: Flipping tables (YASHA: Moichi, Takeru) 91 Words.
"I thought he came here to see you?" Moichi asks, and Takeru watches his mouth twist into a confused frown. If Moichi could see he might have realised just how much he was giving away just from letting his reactions show on his face - although he couldn't see anyone else's, and went on tone of voice or shortness of reply, Takeru had a bigger advantage Moichi couldn't comprehend.
"He did, but he had to leave quickly, urgent business," Takeru lies smoothly. "If you see him, you will tell me?"

12 November 2005: A kiss, and the end of the world (FANDOM: Domyouji Tsukasa/Makino Tsukushi) 357 Words.
Tsukushi is studying on the roof by lamplights that Tsukasa had installed that very morning just for this very purpose; the chill is being thwarted by the thick (fake) fur coat Tsukasa had thrust upon her and insisted that she wear 'to keep his very best girl warm' while she killed time waiting. He had demanded she meet him on the rooftop, and he was never, ever late, unless it was life or death. And compared to her, it never was.
"Here I am!" He bellowed, his dazzling smile managing to cancel out the brashness of her words. "I did research! I spoke to people! Did you see I set up the telescope especially? Something big is going to happen tonight, the Professor told me so!"
Tsukushi nodded and tilted her head up to accept a kiss on the cheek between Tsukasa's babbled words. She put down her pen and devoted her attention to him completely, letting him clasp her hand in his and guide her over to the telescope. His concentration, one eye down the lense, was rare and totally hot. Tsukushi slipped her free hand round Tsukasa and over his stomach, hugging herself close to his back.
Never one to ignore her for a moment, Tsukasa turns away from the telescope and into Tsukushi's embrace. The moment he leans in to kiss her, her eyes are still open, and she sees the shooting star soar across the sky, and knows it's this Tsukasa has been waiting for.
"OHMYGOD!" Tsukasa yells, and Tsukushi cringes, knowing that if this moment has messed up all of his plans she will never hear the end of it, no matter how sweet the kiss they just shared. Tsukasa pulls his phone out of his pocket and Tsukushi bites her lip.
"I have to call someone!" He insists. "The sky is falling, what do we do?!"
Tsukushi looks around for a good surface to go bang her head on while Tsukasa flails into the night, and wishes not for the first, or second, or twentieth time, that Tsukasa had paid just a little bit of attention just once during school.

26 October 2006. -- but I'm having your baby!! (ACE WO NERAE: Chiba Takashi/Ryuzaki Reika) 210 Words.
She never thought it could happen to her; she was always so sensible, so restrained - cold, some might say. Distant and unfeeling. But she'd been reminded time after time that those people didn't know her, the people who loved her knew better. Cold or not, it didn't change anything - she had been sensible, she had held back as long as she could, even after knowing in her heart that it was right, and he was the one, the guy she wanted to give up her virginity to, after spending her whole life so far thinking it wouldn't matter all that much if she just didn't have sex until her wedding night if she met the right one.
She hadn't realised then how hard it would be not to have right right now. And now she was pacing her room, sitting down on her bed, then getting back up and pacing again. She took her private phone off the hook, took herself into the bathroom and locked the door.
While the phone rang she prayed for him to answer sooner, at the same time rpaying for him not to pick up at all.
"Takashi," Reika whispered into the phone. "I'm late, and I think I could be pregnant."

27 May 2006 - I am the lover whom you will betray (YASHA: Sei/Moichi) 188 Words.
It's the sunlight shining in through the window that wakes Sei. He scrunches up his face and turns away from the glare, over to see Moichi's sleeping face. He smiles even while he sleeps, and Sei can't help but mimic him, sliding a hand under the bedcovers and over Moichi's bare chest. His skin is warmer than the sun shining onto Sei's back.
Sei's sight without his glasses isn't perfect, but it isn't terrible, just a tiny blur at the edges of his vision, like a soft dream. He knows he should put his glasses on, but he rather likes this Moichi, sleeping, dreaming, untouched by the hurts of the world. He has always been innocent, but he has not always been overlooked.
"Sei?" Moichi asks, yawning, and finding Sei's hand on his chest reaches out and clutches hold of it.
"I'm here," Sei says with a smile, as if Moichi didn't already know it. "I'm not going anywhere."
Even as he says the words he knows they are probably a lie; he just prays he gets at least one chance to keep his promise this time.
