Tux, penguin suit, potato sack - what's the difference again?

Dec 23, 2008 18:47

Tricked was how Gin felt. Lured away from his afternoon nap by a warm hand ruffling his hair, a pretty smile and the promise of a snack, he was trudging after Aizen grumpily. He didn't know where they were headed, but he was absolutely sure that he wasn't going to have a snack any time soon.

The words 'snack after blah blah' ghosted around in his ( Read more... )

"You can't be that hungry, can you? We haven't even gotten in the car yet," he replied, offering a small smile and rubbing Gin's back a little. Gin could be an almost impossible abomination to work with but sometimes all he needed was a bit of... nudging.

They were supposed to walk to their destination, but it was raining and Gin was not exactly being... very cooperative. Raining meant more cars on the road, which was somehow possible despite the fact that it was peak hour lunchtime, but their destination was nearby so it should not pose too big of a problem.

"How about we go get a snack first?" Sousuke suggested. Appeasing the black hole that was the blond's stomach now and during the car ride meant less distractions on the road.

There was a convenience store a few minutes' walk away, and it was sheltered all the way. There was also a snack bar further down the road just before the lights.

"What would you like?"

The prospect of getting fed right now lightened Gin's mood considerably. Actually, it was kind of embarrassing how easily he could be bribed with something as mundane as a snack.

It wasn't like anyone could have their way with the publicist that easily, though. Only Aizen could nudge the fox without having his hand bitten off. Aizen who saw something in Gin that nobody else saw and pampered and indulged the blond so much that he sometimes felt ashamed of his antics and honestly tried to be less annoying and crazy.

"Twinkies." They were easy to handle and wouldn't make indelible stains on the car seats like those nachos with cheese and chili sauce he had the other day...

"Ya wanna tell me again where we're goin', dahlin'?"

Twinkies? Well, the CEO had no complaints. Last time he offered a suggestion, he had to change the entire interiors of his car and that was... inconvenient. He was too used to driving around everywhere, despite the traffic problems in Manhattan, and being Gin Ichimaru's chauffeur had become part of his job description anyway.

"We are going to shop for some clothes for you," Aizen said. He was sure he had already informed Gin of this before setting out on the journey. Perhaps he was starting to get a little forgetful...

He followed Gin into the convenience store, hanging around by the drinks area to pick up a can of red bull. He suspected he was going to need it for the road... and the shopping afterwards. Shopping with Gin was... not quite like any other thing he had ever experienced.

Retrieving his wallet from his back pocket, Aizen picked up Gin's food and his drink and headed back out, back towards the carpark to get their ride.

"No whining when we get there, alright? You might scare the people working there."

Shopping for clothes... Yes, Aizen had mentioned something about buying a tux some time ago but since it never came up again, Gin had treated it as a joke ( ... )

"They should. I look great in 'em," mumbled Aizen's publicist, tearing his prize open and bit off half of the yellow sponge cake made of pure sugar. It was delicious. Watching the army of umbrellas bobbing along on the pavement and the platoon of glistening cars on the street, he slid deeper into his seat, grateful that he didn't have to be out there and that he worked for the most generous man in the whole wide world ( ... )

Aizen made no comment about Gin looking good in his orange shorts. He did not actually mind Gin wearing them - he did not look absolutely ghastly, but... there were other, more feasible options in Gin's wardrobe than that.

"I know you did not do it on purpose, and I am well aware that you did apologise. There really was no need to try and lick it all off, though..."

Because of Gin, the CEO had stocked a cloth at the passenger seat door, and he also had extra tissues in case of another... emergency.

"Did you?" he asked, smiling a little even though he was focused more on the road than who Gin was talking about. Outside of Gin and his company, everything and everyone else was inconsequential.

It was... almost funny, how low people would stoop just to get a scrape off the top.

"I think he would have had more luck with you."

Gin was pretty sure there was a hidden insult in that statement. "Yeah, told him he was barkin' up the wrong tree since I couldn't hire anyone without yer consent. He totally bought that..."

Wait. Not hidden. Not hidden at all. "Did ya just... Oh, no, ya didn't!" Blue eyes wide with fake shock stared at Aizen.

"Ya just called me easy, didn't ya?"

Now, the publicist wished he'd asked for a taco with lots of molten cheese.

He turned to look at Gin, smiling a little before returning his gaze and focus to the road.

"What makes you say that? I know nothing about you being 'easy' or not. You know you don't need my consent to do anything... though I would prefer if you would at least inform me first."

He made a turn into the carpark and stopped at a spare lot behind the building.

"Alright, we're here. Let's go."
