    Summary

    “Kojiro?” Cherry frowned uncertainly. “What are you doing here?”

    “Picking you up and taking you home?” Joe said. 

     

    Joe moves into Cherry's place to take care of him while he heals up.
    And then he just never leaves.

    It takes Cherry an embarrassingly long time to notice.

    Summary

    It wasn’t unusual for Joe to see Cherry eating with people at Sia la luce; sometimes he brought a client, sometimes he was the client being brought. Industry acquaintances, media people conducting interviews, hoity-toity calligraphy peers…whatever. 

    Joe was used to seeing Cherry eat with people in his restaurant.

    What he wasn’t used to was seeing Cherry very obviously enjoying himself doing so.

    Oh, sure—he had that stupid professional smile of his that managed to fool people (how, Joe still had no clue—it was so obviously fake!) but a genuine, spontaneous, eye-crinkling smile? Hell no. Those were saved for—

    Ahem.

    Summary

    “Hey, I brought food—” Joe peeked through the door into the disaster zone that was Cherry’s workroom. “Whoa.”

    “Kojiro?” Cherry looked up, glasses slightly askew, hair tie loose, and dark circles under his eyes. He frowned slightly in confusion. “What are you doing here?”

    “I came to check on you,” Joe said slowly. “Are you okay?”

    Cherry bristled, straightening to his full height. Scowling, he opened his mouth to say something scathing…then visibly deflated, shoulders sagging.

    “Take off your shirt,” he sighed.

     

    Or: Cherry's on the verge of a breakdown and needs a distraction. Luckily, Joe is more than happy to help.

    Summary

    Kojiro sighed yet again, smiling around his beer at the girl hanging on his arm, looking up at him hopefully. This was usually his thing. Parties, people, a bit of drinking, women. When he’d first started staying with Kaoru, nannying him during his recuperation, he couldn’t wait to get back to this lifestyle.

    Maybe he was just out of practice.

    Yeah, that had to be it.

    The beer wasn’t going down fast enough, not tasting good tonight at all—though he had to admit that wasn’t the beer’s fault. Just like it wasn’t this girl’s fault—or the girl on his other side, very un-subtly pressing her boobs against his arm. No, the beer was perfectly…beery, the women perfectly attractive, the music perfectly too-loud, the atmosphere perfectly upbeat and sexy and cheery.

    It was him.

    His phone vibrated in his back pocket, startling him out of his thoughts and he frowned at the screen. The name was familiar—too familiar. But she’d certainly never called him before. He didn’t actually know she could.

    Suddenly too many eyes were on him and he smiled sheepishly as he answered the call.

    “Hey, Carla. What’s up, baby?”

    Summary

    Everything came so natural to them- the bickering, the sex, the unconditional love. But nothing good lasts forever. But at least the universe gives even these two idiots a second chance.
