It's probably not what you think, but maybe if you wish hard enough it will come true. )

Vash's heart skipped a beat from no other feeling then utter shock. Just when he thought things couldn't get worse another bombshell was dropped onto him. He knew that Roderich was in the city, sure. But really of all the days he chose to step outside the house he just happened to meet him...Maybe if he ran fast enough he can get away now without being recognized. Or if he punched him in the nose first he'd be able to confuse him long enough to get away. Or maybe just maybe, he wouldn't recognize him. He hadn't cut his hair since moving into the new house and it had been starting to get a little long, shaggy even ( ... )

Did he just say that? He really just said that didn't he? Vash's mind paced back and forth like a game of ping pong as his face positively flushed. If Roderich was looking down there that must mean he was looking down at...
O-oh...Oh God!!
It was the moment that most heterosexual men either dread, or find very flattering. To be precise it was definitely much more of the former then the latter. Vash didn't even want to acknowledge Roderich's existence let alone want to...have feelings for.. well any of that lovey dovey crap!
His shoulders tensed up as his throat began close in and wrap around the words he tried to utter. With his face still flushed and his nerves getting the best of him his voice finally let out a cracked,
"A-Are you coming on to me...?!"

Roderich's hand found its way to cover his nose and mouth in horror, as if he had witnessed a terrible crime committed before his eyes. A terrible crime had been committed, yes, but Roderich was the sinner. He did not even want to reason with his logic and figured why he said what he had said. He simply wanted to turn in shame and ran as far away as possible.
But Vash's words stopped his body from fleeing the scene. The Swiss was insistent in continuing the embarrassment, and Roderich was too dignified to leave without a comment.
"Y-you idiot! Why would I come on... You have such a vulgar mind, Vash," Roderich said. "I have... I have no intention... desire... you...! You!"
Nothing could stop his cheeks from blushing bright red. His hand still over his mouth and nose, Roderich tried not to run from Vash again.

"W-who are you calling vulgar!?" he snapped back. "You're the one talking about bananas while looking down at...whatever the hell you were looking at!!" Never one to be able to control his voice level Vash was practically yelling at every living thing that happened to be inhabiting the park at that moment.
"And I'm not an idiot!" he fumed as he stomped his foot up and down. For a moment he paused as a minuscule smile came onto his lips but for half of a second. It was then that he finally saw an opening to possibly turn the tables once again ( ... )

The current time, however, was not suited for reminiscence. How dare Vash accuse him of such shamelessness? Roderich was a gentleman above all and as if he had that kind of interest in Vash.
"... Looking down at... I was not looking at anything! Perhaps you'd be wise not to hold such objects with you." He cleared his throat and tried to keep his voice down; Vash was loud enough for the both of them. "Only an idiot would misconstrue my intention for something else ( ... )

Noise, noise, noise. What was her damn owner complaining about now, she's the one who lost the chance at one of those long curved things covered in tiny brown rocks. It was all over that other man's hand but Eiger did not want to introduce herself by doing something as unrefined as licking the scraps that were still mushed between that guy's fingers. Eiger was a classy goat. Except when it came to bodily functions really. Better out then in, she thought.
But there was still a chance, a moment to retrieve the other golden brown curved tasty looking thing! It was still in her caretaker's hands, and seeing as how her previous jumping up and down didn't do much good she devised a new plan.
Take him down. All the way down. He won't suspect a thing. Stealthy stealthy stealthy...Eiger positioned herself a few feet behind Vash and she lowered her head and began clopping her hooves. Scraping the ground and checking traction she ( ... )

As he was about to maneuver his hand into his pocket to take out his handkerchief, he noticed the goat clopping her hooves. Never been a goat-lover like his old Swiss mate, Roderich had no idea what was about to befall him. His fingers were about to find their way into his pocket without touching the fabric when, unexpectedly, Vash fell forward.
If the goat hadn't been there, Roderich would almost think that the Swiss was trying to, oh say, hug him. But he knew better and he knew that, despite their difference, he should do something to try to catch Vash from falling on his face ( ... )

"What kind of brute would walk a goat in public?" he said loud and clear, ignoring how rude it would sound. To a stranger, he would have had more courtesy as well. But it was Vash he was facing - the person whom he had lovedcherished for many years before he was betrayed and abandoned. Nothing could or ever would mend the void left in him since Vash's departure. That was not to say that Vash was irreplaceable... it was simply that... Roderich hadn't cared to... find another person... worth ( ... )

He sighed as he placed Eiger down and pulled out a pad and pen from his jacket, still left from his days as an enforcer of the law. He quickly scribbled down in elongated lettering the address of his new home on the blank backside of the ticket and tore it from the bad, sticking it onto what was left of the chocolate banana on Roderich's shirt.
Neatly he tucked the pad back into his pocket and said, "You still owe me for the bananas then."
