Saiyuki ficlet for Cicer

[louiselux]

cicer asked for anything Hakkai/Gojyo - well, you did say anything! This is more of a bizarre fluffy bizarre love triangle:



'Now, this is Gojyo,' Hakkai said. 'Gojyo, say hello to Jeep.'

'Why d'ya call him that?'

'He can turn into one.'

Gojyo was going to ask how he'd found that out, but the scrawny white thing on Hakkai's shoulder was peering at him suspiciously.

'What, you want me to shake his claw or something? I don't think he likes me,' Gojyo said, when Jeep snapped at his extended finger. 'Ow.'

'No, no. He does, I'm sure,' Hakkai said. 'Come a little closer. You can hold him.'

Gojyo sucked at the two drops of welling blood, the same colour as the dragon's eyes. Jeep hissed, his mouth opening wide to show tiny, white fangs.

'I don't want to.'

'Gojyo.'

'Crap. Fine.'

Jeep coiled his tail round Hakkai's upper arm when Hakkai gently tried to lift him off.

'He's shy. Let go, little one,' Hakkai said. Jeep flexed his claws and they slid easily through Hakkai's shirt. 'Ah. Please be so kind as to not sink your claws in. Let go, please. Stop that. Now.'

'Kyu!'

'No more biting! He's perfectly safe, Gojyo. Ouch.'

The battle went on for some minutes. Gojyo hid his grin behind his hand.

'Don't be afraid,' Hakkai murmured in Jeep's ear, eventually. 'You can trust Gojyo.'

It was stupid to get such a warm glow just because of that. 'Ah, don't worry about it, Hakkai. He'll learn.'

Jeep clung even more tightly. He draped his body around Hakkai's neck and hissed in Gojyo's face when Gojyo came near.

'It might be that he's jealous,' Hakkai said, after a pause.

'Of.. of me? Heh.' Gojyo rubbed the nape of his neck and backed away. 'There's no reason for that.'

Hakkai's ears were pink, but Gojyo could put that down to Jeep having bitten them, although he hadn't seen it happen.

'No, of course,' Hakkai said to Gojyo's elbow. 'I must go shopping now.'

Jeep's white head bobbed smug and victorious over Hakkai's shoulder as he hurried away.
