TITLE: Yin & Yang
CHAPTER: Four
PAIRING: Ohno x Ninomiya
RATING: PG13 ATM
SUMMARY: “The Creator has given you this chance to prove yourself. If you do not do so, your very existence will be ripped from this earth, and you will be stuck in the in between for all of eternity,”
Nino’s knuckles were split and bleeding. He had a cut on his lip from where someone actually managed to land a punch, and he was a little out of breath. He struggled to reign in his powerful anger; his demonic side was really trying to beat its way out of him.
He wiped at the blood on his lip with the back of his hand and peered out from the alleyway where he was currently hiding from the police. As soon as he heard the sirens, he took off, and they wouldn’t have gotten an accurate description of him; but he had split knuckles and a bleeding lip so it was obvious he’d been fighting.
With the police moving away, Nino’s heart began to beat faster at just the thought of finding another worthless human to beat the shit out of for no reason.
“Haven’t you had enough, already?” A sad voice came from behind him.
Nino spun around, his fists moving to a defensive position.
“Oh, Nino,” Ohno sighed, “You know I’d never hurt you. Put your fists down,”
Nino narrowed his eyes and slowly lowered his hands, “I thought you’d buggered off,” He growled.
“No,” Ohno said, “I was watching you the whole time. It hurt so much to watch you get into all of those fights, especially since it was hurting you, too,”
“These?” Nino held up his hands, displaying the split knuckles and then pointed to his lip, “They don’t hurt,”
“That’s not what I meant,” Ohno said quietly, his eyes were glowing an icy blue and Nino suddenly felt uncomfortable. It was if Ohno could see right into his soul.
Not trusting himself to reply, Nino turned his back on the angel and made to leave the dark alley. However, just as he took a step forward, Ohno spoke again.
“What’s bothering you, Kazunari?”
Nino froze, glad that his back was facing the angel. His face turned bright red, and he lifted his lips from his teeth, revealing sharp fangs.
“Don’t you dare call me that,” He snarled, “You don’t have my permission to use my first name as you please,”
“I can call you what I like,” Ohno replied, “I’m the archangel in charge of kicking your scrawny butt into gear. You can call me Satoshi if you want, I have no problem. It’s just a name. Now tell me what’s bothering you,”
“Scrawny?!“ Nino choked, spinning around, “What the he-”
“Ah, finally, you’re facing me. Oh, and you’re all red. That’s so cute. Are you going to talk to me, now?”
Nino snarled and leapt at the angel, grabbing him by his shirt and throwing him into the wall. He put his face in close to Ohno’s, who didn’t even flinch from the impact.
“What the fuck is your problem, angel?” He snarled, “Why do you keep tormenting me like this?”
“Tormenting?” Ohno laughed, “I just want to get to know you, Kazunari. I want you to open up and talk to me. I want you to stop guarding your soul so much and relax. Then you can truly be free from your inner demons,”
Nino choked out a laugh, finally allowing his demonic side to spring free. His tail unfurled from the base of his spine, pushing its way out through the top of his tight jeans and cutting through the air with angry swishes. A beautiful pair of curved horns grew up and out from his forehead and his skin had a slightly red tinge to his, matching the smouldering blood red glow radiating from his wide eyes.
“I don’t have inner demons,” He said, his red eyes staring deep into Ohno’s icy blue eyes, “I am a demon,”
“No,” Ohno said softly, “You are the son of Satan. But you are much more than the form you were born in,”
Nino couldn’t help but feel his heart drop in his chest, “No,” He said, struggling to control the emotion in his voice, “I’m not. I have expectations to live up to. I have to follow in my fathers and aniki’s footsteps. I have to be a role model for Jun. My natural form is ugly and powerful. I feel nothing but anger and I can’t control my urges,”
“You’re wrong,” Ohno’s voice was barely above a whisper as he lifted his hand to touch Nino’s red skin, “Your natural form is beautiful and powerful, and you do feel. You feel despair and self loathing and guilt. You shouldn’t feel those things,”
Without warning, Ohno’s fingers locked into Nino’s black hair. He jerked his head forwards and caught the surprised devil in a gentle kiss. Nino let go of Ohno’s shirt in shock and Ohno took the opportunity to tug him even closer, so that their chests were touching. He released Nino’s lips slowly and looked into the wide eyes.
“You are beautiful and good,” He said, lifting his hand and tapping his fingers gently on the devils chest, “Because you have a heart. Your father doesn’t. You are not like your father. You can make a choice, Ninomiya Kazunari. You can break free of your pain!”
Nino broke free of Ohno’s hold and staggered backwards, slapping his hand over his mouth. Ohno moved with him, his eyes almost desperate, “Nino, please! You have to let yourself go! Tell me what you’re thinking! Don’t hold it in!”
Nino kept stepping around and away from the angel, who kept with him, not letting him escape. Eventually, Nino came to a halt near the mouth of the alleyway.
“That was my first kiss,” He hissed, before spinning on his heel and dashing from the dark alley.

“I really don’t understand,” Ohno said, following Nino around his living room as he paced angrily, “How can that be your first kiss? I mean, the amount of times that you’ve had women in your bed with you… How can you not have kissed someone?”
“I never kiss them,” Nino snarled, spinning around to face the angel, “Not on the lips, anyway…”
“Oh, so you’re good with your lips on other body parts?” Ohno said, making a grab for Nino’s swishing tail.
Nino dodged at the last moment, his face turning red. He spluttered and stomped from the room, Ohno hot on his heels.
“Oh come on, Nino!” Ohno whined, “I’m just teasing you. I’m sure you’re great at sex or whatever. I just want you to open up a bit mo-”
Ohno’s words were cut off by Nino’s bedroom door slamming in his face.
“You’re no fun!” He yelled through the wood, before heading back to the living room to watch television.
Nino continued his angry pace around his bedroom. He didn’t know why he was so worked up; it was just a kiss. He slumped onto his bed, dragging his fingers along his lips. With a start, he leapt to his feet and tugged his bedroom door open.
“Ohno, you kno-”
“Do you want to do something tonight?” Ohno’s sleepy voice cut him off.
“Wh.. What do you mean do something?”
“Go out for a drink or something. It’s boring spending all day and night in this place,” Nino watched as Ohno got up from the sofa and walked towards him.
“With you?”
Ohno nodded.
“Fuck off. There is no way that I’m going out with you!”
Ohno’s bottom lip trembled ever so slightly, his eyes widening and his shoulders tensing.
“Oh Jesus Christ,” Nino swore.
“Don’t use his name like that,” Ohno mumbled.
The next thing Nino knew, he was sitting at a bar next to the archangel, who was knocking back double vodkas like his life depended on it.
“This is a waste of time,” He muttered, sipping his own beer.
“Another one, please,” Ohno slurred at the barman, who immediately slid another glass towards Ohno’s hand.
“Don’t you think you’ve had enough?” Nino snarled, grabbing the glass before Ohno could get it, “I didn’t even know that angels could get drunk,”
“Give me my drink, Ni-Ni!” Ohno wailed, making a grab for the glass.
“Ni-Ni?!“ Nino spluttered, “The fuck?! Don’t call me that!”
“Ninomiya, Ninomiya,” Ohno giggled, “Therefore, Ni-Ni“
Nino growled, his face turning pink, “Stop it,”
Ohno just giggled again and swallowed the entire glass all in one.
Nino was about to yell at him, when a huge guy grabbed Ohno’s shoulders and physically moved him from the bar stool.
“You’re in my way, you fucking gay,” The man grumbled.
Nino immediately saw red. He put his drink down and tugged the stool out of the way before the man could sit down.
“The fuck do you think you’re doing, caveman?” He snarled, “This seat is taken,”
“Kazunari-”
“Shut up,” Nino snapped at Ohno, who was red faced and swaying on the spot. He turned back to the man as he got to his feet angrily.
“You wanna fight, pipsqueak?” He rumbled, flexing his muscles, “You’re asking the wrong guy,”
Nino grinned as the man cracked his knuckles, “Are you sure you can take me, arsehole?”
“Out,” The barman said, slamming a glass down in front of them, “I won’t have fighting in my pub,”
“Great,” Nino said, getting to his feet, “Outside it is,”
The man threw the first punch the moment Nino stepped out of the pub. Ohno squealed and jumped as Nino dodged the huge fist and threw his own at the mans jaw.
“I can’t watch,” Ohno slurred, covering his eyes with his hands. However, he quickly parted his fingers so he could watch through them.
Nino rolled his eyes at the drunk angel, kind of wishing that he was always like this so he wouldn’t be interrupted during his fights.
Strangely, Nino wasn’t as thrilled as usual to be fighting. In fact, he was bored of it. The man was all over the place, obviously thinking that he was amazing, and in the end, Nino got fed up of playing nice. He shifted his weight backwards and kicked straight up into the air, his foot landing soundly on the man’s chin, knocking him unconscious immediately.
As he went to kick the fallen man in the ribs, Ohno grabbed him from behind.
“No more fighting, please,” He said sadly, “I want to go home,”
Nino tried to shrug Ohno off of him, but to no avail. Instead, he sighed and accepted the wobbling archangels weight as he led the way home.
“Kazunari,” Ohno whispered as soon as the door to Nino’s flat was shut behind them.
“What?” Nino snapped, angry that he had allowed himself to become a crutch for the drunken angel.
“I want to thank you for standing up for me and helping me home,”
“Fuck off,” Nino sighed. He yelped in shock, however, when he felt Ohno’s strong hands spin him around and slam him into the wall.
“What the he-”
Nino’s argument was cut off by Ohno’s lips landing hard on his. He struggled slightly, hoping that the angel would back off.
But this wasn’t like the first time; Ohno had no intention of stopping.
