[writelovetomeempress]

You asked for it! 105 and heartshipping

Ahhh heartshipping. How you give me cavities and block my arteries and put me in a sugar coma... but oooohhhh how I love it so much. Death by sweetness!

I needed some sweetness after the week I’ve had. Thank you for the sweet ship and the CHALLENGING AS F*** prompt, Alecto!

“You can’t make up for it by giving me a tic-tac.”

Yuugi  gorged himself on cheesy fries with his brows knit together and his back pressed into the booth; hoping it would swallow him up. This was the worst, most embarrassing, lowest of the low days he’d ever had and he just wanted to disappear. If he was lucky, he’d get a heart attack from eating all this grease and not have to worry about going in to work tomorrow and face him again.

He screwed his eyes shut involuntarily remembering the horrors of his work day. He showed up to work late because his power went out and the alarm clock obviously didn’t go off. He had to dress in the dark, resulting in a backwards shirt, then tripped during his mad dash to work in the rain and fell into a puddle. By the time he finally made it into work, he just hoped he wouldn’t run into his boss. But that wasn’t what fate had instore for him. Running into his boss would’ve been delightful compared to who he actually ran into… literally. Of all his coworkers, Ryou was the LAST person he wanted to see him like that, let alone run into him like that. There was just… something about him and his smile that made his heart try to mutiny every time he saw him.  Since that first day he helped him move into the cubical right next to his, He just loved being around him and talking to him. He was sweet and kind and shy, just like Yuugi was, but unlike him, Ryou’s shyness was endearing and adorable. He’d never felt like this about anyone before and of course, the universe made sure to stomp that dream into the mud. 

He didn’t just run into him, he accidentally knocked them both over and ended up on top of him somehow. In a matter of seconds, they were both covered in cold rain, mud and hot tea; a terrible combination on a good day and today was not a good day. On a good day, it could’ve been one of those cinematic moments where the main character accidentally trips and lands on their crush and it’s a cute adorable ‘omg I’m so sorry’ and the crush says something like ‘it’s okay’ cause they’re crushing on them too and it’s the start of a beautiful romance. Nope. No such luck. Ryou scrambled away from him like he thought Yuugi wanted to kill him, staring at him like he’d lost his damn mind, muttering a million apologies and ran out of there so fast Yuugi didn’t get to apologize once. All that wouldn't be so bad if Ryou didn’t have this look on his face like he was actually scared about it. He had no idea what that look was supposed to mean, so cheesy fries, the biggest burger in the country, and a double scoop sunday was his plan to forget about the whole thing.

“Hey Yuug’! Can I sit with ya?”

He looked up at his best friend and instantly felt a little better. “Of course you can, Joey. I thought you still had an hour at work?”

“Heh, they let me go early. Not much goin’ on today.” He sat down in the booth across from him and slid his tray of food over the table top. “So- oh…shit. That bad a day huh?”

“I tried to order cookies, but they’re out.”

“Fuck that’s bad. Get fired?”

“No. Worse.” Yuugi went on to explain the awfulness that was his day, top to bottom, watching with annoyance at the obnoxious grin on Joey’s face. “What?”

“I think you’re exageratin’.”

“I’m not. You should’ve seen the look on his face. I’m pretty sure he hates me.”

“No one could possibly hate ya Yuug’.”

“Well, I found the one that does,” he muttered, glaring down at his empty basket of fries. 

“I doubt it. I mean, yeah, it’s kinda weird that he freaked out like that, but there’s a fuckin’ like… a million other reason’s he coulda reacted like that,” Joey chortled, picking up his burger and watching pieces of toppings fall out the sides dont the wrapper. “For all ya know, he could be straight.”

Yuugi groaned. “That would be my luck too.” Actually the more he thought about it, the whole thing, from the moment he met him until now, it just made a world of sense. All the girls at the office seemed to like him and talked to him all the time, how uncomfortable he was being that close to him, and avoided his cubicle when Tea came into it to talk about the hot guy three cubicles down from them. He slammed his head down on the table. “I’m an idiot.”

Joey just laughed.

“Now what am I supposed to do? I can’t show my face at work again. I’ll have to move. Maybe I can fake my death.”

He laughed even harder. 

He sat up with a sigh to tell him it wasn't funny at all and he was actually considering it, when his eyes locked with Ryou, standing in line at the counter. Not that it lasted long, he immediately turned away. Yeah, he needed to fake his death. Maybe he could change his name to something else. Grandpa would be upset, hell, he’d be upset, but at this point? Totally worth it.

“Look, Yuug’. I make an ass of myself all the time. Chances are no one’s even gonna care. If he is straight, you’ll never have ta worry ‘bout him brinin’ it up again. He’s probably more embarrassed than ya are.”

His shoulders slumped and he sank further into the booth. It sure looked like it.

“Sides there’s other fish in the sea.”

He slumped more.

“And it’s not like ya see him outsida-”

“Hello Yuugi.”

He looked up at Ryou standing at the edge of their table with a tray of food and an uneasy smile. Yuugi forced his voice to work, not sure what else to do. “Uh… hey Ryou.”

He tried not to look over at Joey, but he could clearly see his amused grin. That’s it! Joey’s dead to him. “Ahh, ya work together right? Yuug’s told me ‘bout ya. Nice ta finally meet ya.”

Ryou frowned then his smile grew. “You must be Joey.”

“Sure am!” 

His smile faded as he sheepishly examined the rest of the restaurant, then met Yuugi’s eyes with pink tinged cheeks. “It sure is busy here. Is it always like this?”

He might’ve got his voice working once, but Ryou actually talking to him after all that happened destroyed whatever progress he’d made. Joey might still be dead to him, but at least he had his back. He leaned his elbows on the table and readied to take another bite. “Oh yeah. We’re here all the time, ain’t we Yuug’?”

“Yeah… yeah, it’s my favorite place.”

Ryou beamed at him. “Ahh this is the place you were talking about.”

He lifted his shoulders, still wanting to disappear into the booth. “Yeah.”

Out of nowhere a table of girls started waving at them. Ryou turned and watched them point to an open chair next to them. Yuugi looked back at his food, thinking that was that, but Joey caught his attention, glancing between the girls and Ryou. When he turned his attention back to Yuugi, he was grinning ear to ear. Yuugi swore he saw devil horns sprouting out of his head. “If ya wanna sit with us ya can. We don’t mind, right Yuug’?”

Ryou looked conflicted standing there with a tightened grip on his tray. Yuugi wasn’t sure what possessed him, but the next thing he knew he’d scooted over for Ryou to sit down. “Right.”

He held his breath or couldn’t breathe, watching Ryou smile and sit down beside him. He settled in in silence, then glanced up at him. “About today… are you hurt?”

“What?”

He had that same scared look as before. “That tea was really hot. I should’ve watched where I was going. I hope I didn’t burn you.”

“Wh-no. No, I’m fine. I’m sorry I ruined your shirt.”

Ryou giggled, a lot of the tension leaving him, and shook his head. “I ruined that shirt before you got there. Never drink red soda at work.”

Yuugi felt worlds better when he smiled like normal and started to eat his food. He went back to his food too, but Joey’s downright evil grin brought on a whole new level of anxiety. Was he being weird? Was that what Joey was trying to tell him? The silence between the three of them felt heavy, despite the room being loud with chatter. He needed to say something. He had to say something. What could he say?

Joey reached into his pocket, frowned at his phone, then shoved it back in, looking up at him. “Sorry man. I don’t think I can go ta the movie tonight.”

“Oh… Are you working again?”

“Not this time.” He winked and leaned back. “I gotta date.”

“But we planned this for months.”

“And I gotta date.”

“That’s not right. You shouldn’t pick your boyfriend over your best friend.”

“Says the guy who don’t gotta boyfriend.” He turned to Ryou and Yuugi saw it happening before it did, but he couldn’t do anything to stop it. “What’re ya doin’ tonight, Ryou?”

Ryou didn’t answer and just stared at him.

“I really don’t wanna throw away good tickets ta see the new Quest movie, but-”

“But that’s sold out,” Ryou murmured. “How’d you get tickets?”

Joey grinned. “We know the right guy.”

Yuugi scoffed and muttered under his breath, “You mean your boyfriend knows the right guy.” Then mentally kicked himself. What if Joey was right? Now he’s making things more awkward.

Ryou actually giggled as he turned him, “Well… only if that’s alright with you, Yuugi.”

Alright with him?! Yes it was alright with him! Was he crazy? But he couldn’t say that so he tried to think of something a someone sane person would say. ‘I’d love for you to go with me’ nope. Too desperate. ‘You can do whatever you want’ nope. Too nonchalant. Yuugi stuttered and sputtered then cleared his throat, just nodding because his mind STILL hadn’t decided on an answer that didn’t sound stupid and he was starting to get a weird look from both of them. 

“Great!” Joey reached back into his pocket and pulled out his ticket, handing it… to Yuugi. “There ya go.”

Yuugi stared at him completely confused, but Ryou didn’t seem to be. He gently nudged him, just like he did at work, and smiled. “So what time is it showing?”

“7:30.”

He nodded and started collecting up his left over trash and food. “I’d better get going then. Could you pick me up? I’m still not really sure where anything is.”

“Oh… Oh! Uh yeah. Sure.” 

Ryou stood up and smiled, tilting his head cutely to the side. That was the same thing he did the first day he met him and his heart attempted mutiny all over again. He was so wrapped up in it, he almost missed the three words Ryou happily chirped, “It’s a date!”

He casually walked away while Yuugi stared after him feeling like he’d stepped into the Twilight Zone. He didn’t mean it that way. He just moved here a few months ago. He probably meant something else. Maybe it was a popular saying. He didn’t mean it that way. He didn’t mean it. It wasn’t a date. Oh god what if it WAS a date?!

Joey’s delighted laughter snapped him out of it and he shook a tic-tac box at him. Yuugi blushed and snatched it out of his hands, shaking one out of it into his palm. “You can’t make up for it by giving me a tic-tac.”

“Make up for what? Gettin’ ya a date?”

He got up from the table scooping up the left over wrappers and walked away. Yuugi didn’t pay much attention until he realized Joey wasn’t going the right direction. He was headed straight for the table of girls. He frowned, watching him walk by them when a hand came out and high-fived him as he passed. He quirked a brow and blushed scarlet when Tea leaned out from the group of girls and made a heart shape with her hands. Next thing he knew, all of the girls turned to stare at him and giggle. 

Single most embarrassing day of his life, but he didn't care. He got a date with Ryou.
