s0hmam0miji last night. And it's never too early for Valentine's Day!
"All right children." Hakkai smiled as his students turned to look at him. "It's time for Art. I need you to take out your scissors and glue, we're going to make some presents for you to take home to your parents."
The third-grade classroom buzzed faintly as the children put their library books away and got out the requested items, chattering to each other as they did so. One of the little girls raised her hand. "Teacher, what are we going to make?"
He smiled, handing out pieces of red, white and pink construction paper. "Well, Ling, we're going to be making Valentines to give to your parents."
The class visibly got excited, the noise level rising and the kids shifting in their chairs. By now they all knew that Valentine's Day was a day to give friends and parents chocolates and paper cards.
There was a sharp knock on the door before it opened, Gojyo's silhouette appearing in the gap. The kids gasped and waved, squirming like little excited puppies.
Gojyo waved back a little, going up to Hakkai and handing him a plastic bag. "You owe me, man. The chick at the grocery looked at me like I was crazy."
Hakkai chuckled, reaching into the bag and pulling out three cans of glitter. "Yes, well, she is very astute," he teased back, laughing softly at the look Gojyo gave him in return.
One of Hakkai's students stood and tugged on Gojyo's hand. "Mr. Gojyo, will you make Valentines with us?" he asked, looking up at him with big eyes. "Pleeeeeease?"
Gojyo laughed and nodded. "Okay, okay, Tin, just stop the begging?"
Hakkai watched as Gojyo got dragged over to the other side of the classroom, sitting at the table with a group of boys, effectively cutting the need for Hakkai's assistance NOW in half. He leaned over to help some of the girls cut out their hearts, stealing glances at the back of his lover's head.
For someone who claimed (loudly) from time to time to hate children, Gojyo certainly got along well enough with them. He chuckled as he saw Gojyo laugh with group of boys, sprinkling glitter about. He volunteered to help in Hakkai's class enough that the kids knew who he was, and he helped with the boys so that things like using glitter didn't seem girly or corny.
He stood back and let the girls go at the glitter, watching them all work. He had a mixed class, half demon children and half human children, with a halfbreed like Gojyo thrown in as well. They got along easily, not realizing the fracture that still existed between their parents, not understanding or caring for the cultural dividing lines between the two races.
This had been what that trip had been for. Not for him, or Gojyo, but for the little ones playing with glitter.
After about twenty minutes of glue and glitter spilling everywhere, Hakkai clapped his hands to get everyone's attention. "Everyone put their scissors and bottles away and put your Valentines on the art table to dry, and then line up for recess."
There was a flurry of activity as they hurried about their tasks, lining up at the door. Hakkai smiled at Gojyo, watching as his lover started wiping down the desks before walking the kids to recess. He came back right as Gojyo was finishing cleaning.
"Teacher~" Gojyo teased, imitating Hakkai's students. "I made you a Valentine~"
Hakkai laughed as he was handed a heart-shaped card. "How pretty," he teased back as Gojyo leaned in and kissed him. He chuckled into the kiss. "I saw you cheat."
"Me?" the redhead replied innocently. "Never!"
"You used a glue stick," Hakkai replied, touching the border of red glitter.
He laughed softly and kissed him again. "Open it."
"Oh?" he chuckled, flipping the top open and pausing, stunned. Written on the inside in silver glitter were two words: Marry Me. Underneath the words was a plain silver band taped to the construction paper.
"Gojyo... I..." He looked up at him, stunned. "Really?"
"I thought I'd make an honest man out of you," he replied, putting an arm around his waist.
"Are you sure?"
"I wouldn't have asked if I wasn't." He smiled down at him. "Well?"
Hakkai threw his arms around Gojyo's neck, hugging him. "Yes," he murmured against his ear. "Yes. If you truly mean it, yes."
Gojyo laughed and took the paper, plucking the ring off of the card. "So traditional," he teased, moving to kneel in front of him. He took both Hakkai's hands in his. "Cho Hakkai, please, please say you'll marry me."
Hakkai looked down at him before smiling, truly smiling, back at him. "Sha Gojyo, I would love to become your spouse," he replied as Gojyo slid the ring onto Hakkai's finger.
"Good," the halfbreed teased him, standing and kissing him.
Hakkai kissed him back, both of them drifting off into their own little world. They only looked up when they heard giggling coming from the doorway, Hakkai's class watching the two of them.
"What?" Gojyo countered. "Can't get cooties this way," he teased, laughing when Hakkai smacked his shoulder.

Date: 2008-01-11 03:19 pm (UTC)That was so sweet and cute! I loved Hakkai's musings about the reason they went on the journey. I loved Gojyo's reaction of "Can't get cooties this way" X^D
That was a really fun session, too -- though really, RP-ing with you is always fun! ***HUGS***
