Gacking thehoyden's ficlet prompt post (I hope you don't mind).
She promised ficlets for ten people but I'm a slow writer and will limit it to five. So:

I'll write a ficlet for the first five people to comment with a pairing and a prompt. If I've written for the pairing before, it's fair game.

Here is her lovely response to my prompt (Waya/Isumi, orange

Akihiko stares at the laptop screen where one single sentence adorns the top of an otherwise blank document. Writer’s block is an unusual state for him. His problems come later in the process, sorting out, ordering and making sense of the rivers of words. Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, they slither while they pass… No, he needs to get a grip.

He goes downstairs to get some coffee, and when he pours it the glass shatters and there are shards and coffee all over the counter, dripping on the floor. If Misaki had been here, he’d be jumping up and down shouting ”I’ve told you a million times where the heat-proof glasses are!”. But Misaki isn’t here, and that’s where Akihiko’s problems begin and end.

Aikawa has taken Misaki to a book fair, and even though it’s in Tokyo they’ve opted to stay at a nearby hotel to save travelling time. Akihiko tries to tell himself it’s ridiculous; his world can’t fall apart because Misaki is away for three days, but the truth is it does

This is lovely, and just exactly like them. Thank you so much!

I realised that maybe I misread your prompt, and you wanted jealousy on Misaki's part. So here's a bonus snippet. :)

As always in the morning, Misaki is on auto-pilot - shower, breakfast, a load of laundry if necessary... Yawning, he moves clothes from the laundry basket to the washing machine. When he mechanically empties pockets (he once washed a white shirt of Akihiko’s that had a scrap of red paper in the breast pocket and the whole load came out a sickly pink), he finds a note in Usagi-san's slacks saying The usual café at 2.

Misaki stares at the note between his fingers, realising he has no idea what Usagi does with his days when Misaki is at university or at work. He has just assumed that Usagi either writes or sleeps, but of course he may be doing anything when Misaki isn't there - like meeting someone special at the usual caféMisaki’s vision blurs with tears as he quickly stuffs the rest of the clothes into the washing machine without bothering to empty any more pockets. If there are more notes of this kind, he wants them

Yay, I'm the luckiest! I love it this way too. Thanks!!!

Aww, Usami is so gone. xD

Do you write any other JR pairings? Just curious.

[penguin474]

He is :)

Not so far - everything I've written for JR is what you see here on my journal from the past week! I was saying to amariel that I don't feel the need for JR fic the way I do with e.g. HP or HnG, because it's basically all there in the anime - with HP or HnG I want to write scenes I'd like to see happen (like getting Akira and Hikaru to kiss, finally, damnit). And I'm not much of a Terrorist fan.
But you never know. I didn't think I'd ever write any JR fic, so... :)
