There was a clatter of pans
in the kitchen, and Hakkai looked up from the book he was reading to glance
over at the doorway. A tiny line appeared between his eyebrows, and one of them
lifted as he contemplated the source of the noise. Goyjo
was taking entirely too long washing up from dinner, and Hakkai couldn't
remember there being that many dishes. Or using a bowl, he mentally
added when a loud clang followed the other noises. "Gojyo?"
"Stay there! I'm almost done," called the kappa from the other
room.
Both eyebrows came up this time. Hakkai bookmarked his page, set the book on the table and waited
patiently. Five minutes later Gojyo came into the living room carrying a bowl
with a wooden spoon in it. He was also wearing one of Hakkai's aprons - and nothing
else.
Hakkai stared at him wordlessly for a full minute.
"I'm sure you have a very sane and reasonable explanation for this,
Gojyo."
The kappa grinned. "I decided to make myself a
birthday cake."
"But I made you a cake. And you ate it after we
had your birthday dinner."
Gojyo sat down on the sofa next to Hakkai. "It
was great. And dinner was awesome. But I wanted to make my own cake."
"Dinner was very good," Hakkai agreed. He
peered over at the bowl and sniffed appreciatively. It was batter for lemon
cake, one of his favorites. He vaguely wondered how
bad the kitchen looked right now, especially since there was a generous smudge
of flour on Gojyo's cheek. "Gojyo, there is an awful lot of batter in that
bowl - shouldn't that be in the cake pan that's in the oven?" He decided
to ignore the whole apron/no clothing issue for now.
Gojyo chuckled. "No pan, no oven - this is
the cake."
Hakkai looked at the batter, then at Gojyo. "Ah,
Gojyo... you're supposed to bake cakes."
"Yes, but baking a cake is boring." Gojyo
set the bowl down. "My way of making a cake is much more fun - the Sha Gojyo No-Bake Birthday Cake." He reached over and
started undoing the buttons of Hakkai's shirt, and then he gently pushed Hakkai
down against the sofa cushions and reached for the bowl.
"Gojyo, what on earth -
oh!" Hakkai gasped when a
spoonful of batter landed on his stomach. He gasped again when Gojyo bent over
and licked the batter off his skin.
"Mmmm. This is a good recipe, 'Kai." Gojyo added a few more
dollops of batter. "You'll notice that I was a good boy and did not make a
chocolate cake. Lemon cake washes out better, I think."
Hakkai was starting to have trouble forming coherent
sentences, especially since Gojyo had slathered more batter on his chest and
was leisurely cleaning off one of his nipples. "I...
you... cake... nnnnngggh."
Gojyo suddenly pulled back. "Ooh, I almost forgot
the candle! I can't have birthday cake without a candle!" He sat up and
poked through the pockets of the apron with one hand, while batter sloshed
precariously in the bowl that he still held in the other hand. Hakkai
considered taking the bowl from him, but he was distracted by tantalizing
glimpses of naked kappa as the apron shifted about during Gojyo's search.
"Aha! Here we go!" Gojyo held up a single
short, thin candle. He applied a generous spoonful of batter onto Hakkai's
navel, followed by the candle. "There. It's a proper birthday cake
now." Gojyo grinned, pleased with his handiwork.
Hakkai stared at Gojyo, then at the candle sticking
out of his navel. "Gojyo, I hope you don't think you are going to be
blowing out that candle."
The kappa's grin turned predatory as he settled
himself between Hakkai's legs.
"Heh. Who said anything about blowing... a candle?"
