Things Happen, Shuuchi/Yuki
Things Happen by dhrachth (R)
Day to day life stuff.
Lovely and wonderful and finally! A good, multi chaptered Gravitation story.
Yuki snorted in derision. "It doesn't matter how much polishing you do, your lyrics always suck," Yuki contradicted. Seeing Shuichi's crestfallen expression, to take some of the sting out of his criticism, Yuki added, "It's a good thing most people are too busy listening to your voice to even notice the lyrics."
"Yuki likes my voice," Shuichi said happily, cuddling against Yuki's leg.
"I take it back," Yuki said, reading Shuichi's lyrics. Before, Shuichi could take offence and start crying, Yuki further explained, "Your lyrics don't always suck."
"You like my song?" Shuichi asked almost disbelievingly. "You really like it?"
"I wouldn't go quite that far," Yuki said repressively. "But, it's not as bad as usual. With a few changes it might be almost passable." Picking up the well-chewed pen Shuichi had left on the coffee table, Yuki started crossing things out and writing in a word here and there. "Here," Yuki said, handing Shuichi back the page.
Shuichi took back the song and read it through. "You crossed out two whole verses, rearranged the chorus, and totally rewrote the English part!" Shuichi protested.
