“Psst! Sei!” came Watari's voice from the bedroom doorway.
Tatsumi looked up from his paperwork spread out on the coffee table. “Hai? What is it, Yutaka?”
“Did you get the tuxes pressed?”
“Of course I did. And be quiet or you'll wake her up.”
“The her is already awake,” Blaze said. “What are you two up to? What's this about getting your tuxes pressed?”
“Nothing, love. Just a boring work party,” Tatsumi said, smiling.
Watari nodded vigorously. Blaze looked suspiciously from one to the other of them.
“You both realize you're terrible liars, don't you? And that I can feel you're up to something sneaky.”
Watari put one hand over his heart and looked at her aghast. “Darling, you wound us. Why would we lie to you about something so mundane as a work party?”
“Because I'm on mission at a black tie event tonight. You two are nosy and protective as all hell.”
“That certainly goes without saying,” Tatsumi said.
“Not to mention, Hisoka would have told me if there was a work party for the simple fact of needing help wrestling Tsu into a tux for it.”
“There is that,” Watari said thoughtfully.
“Now hear this, you two. You are not going on this mission with me. I nearly lost one of you the last time you went with me. I refuse to go through that again.”
Watari sighed and put his hands in her hair, forcing her to look at him.
“Babe, I'm okay. I'm here, I'm safe,” he said, leaning forward and kissing the top of her head.
“But you weren't, Honey. For seventy two hours Chiro and I didn't know if we were going to lose you or not. It nearly killed me again and I don't think I can stand being that scared for at least another couple of millennia.”
“I know, sweetheart. But . . .”
“No buts. No coercion. No wheedling. Neither one of you are going on this mission with me. Is that clear? You are not to interfere in any way. Understand?”
Watari sighed. “Hai, hai, koiishi.”
“I'm glad we understand each other,” she said before turning and walking back into the bedroom.
Tatsumi waited a few minutes and when he heard the shower go on he smiled.
“What are you grinning for?” Watari asked, puzzled. “We have to think of another plan now.”
A wicked little sparkle lit Tatsumi's blue eyes. “She only said we couldn't interfere in this mission.”
“What's your point?”
He smiled wider. “She didn't say we couldn't go watch her on this mission.”
Watari sprinted the length of the room and pounced on Tatsumi, sending paperwork flying all over the room. Winding long arms and legs around the other man and kissing him soundly.
“My gods I just love you!”
“After that, I certainly hope so.”
