Amaretto Sour

And so very belated -_- I have no excuses.


Written straight into semagic, as on the spot I tend to work best there. Addicted to LJ? Not I...

I thought I'd post it here, since it makes me laugh in all it's stupid glory:



"This reminds me of that gag picture," Kevin said idly.

"Shut up," Brian said from beside him. Well, he thought Brian was still beside him.

Kevin grinned in the dark. Pitch black. As in no light whatsoever. If they tried to move now, they'd kill themselves on his grandmother's two bookcases, three broken rockers, two dozen boxes and the three hundred or so items that hadn't made it into boxes. One did not venture lightly into The Basement...generally one went with *lots* of light, actually. So he guessed one did venture lightly. Kevin shook his head. "You know, where you're shown a plain piece of white paper, except for a little black dot right in the middle?"

"Shut up."

"And then you're told it's a polar bear blinking in a blizzard? That always made me laugh."

"That's because you're an idiot. And shut up."

Kevin continued grinning. It had become a game, bewteen them, the lengths to which Brian would go to make him shut up. So far Brian was winning. It was nuts what he would actually agree to do. "Make me." Dare you.

"How?" Dare accepted.

Kevin racked his brain for something to finally throw his neighbor and sort-of friend for a loop. Maybe it was the dark that drove him to it -- they couldn't see each other, he couldn't even see his hand in front of his face, as the saying went. But he could smell the dust and mold, and Brian's mint gum, drying sweat from playing hoops before the storm drove them inside and orders to find flashlights down to The Basement. Yeah, the dark made him do it. "Kiss me."

Silence. Kevin started to snicker and declare his victory -- then hands found his shoulders, climbed higher, and jerked him forward. They bumped foreheads, noses, but then Kevin realized he was quite firmly being kissed.

He was still silent several minutes after Brian let him go.

"Huh," Brian said smugly in the dark. "That really did work."

"Oh, shut up."

Brian laughed. "Make me."
