These series of flash fiction pieces offer glimpses into Akihiko and Minato's relationship. It was born out of a set of drabble prompts, involving the words, 'Kiss me', 'Date me', 'Marry me', 'Leave me', and 'Kill me'.

Despite my lukewarm attitude towards this pairing, I actually liked the way these shorts turned out.

Anyhow, feedback is greatly appreciated, and I hope you enjoy these stories.

Kiss me: It was unexpected, to say the least.

There he was at the lounge, reading a sports magazine, when the door flew open.

"Where have you—"

Without waiting for him to finish, Minato crossed the distance between them in short order, grabbed him by the scruff of his vest, and pulled him into a deep kiss.

On the lips, in front of everyone, no less.

He reluctantly let go, to give him some space to breathe. The younger male simply fixed his gaze on him, as if expecting a response from him as he staggered backwards, holding the side of the couch for support. Words were not exchanged, but Akihiko, dense as he was, felt the declaration literally on his lips. After all, actions spoke louder than words.

He grinned widely at Minato and kissed the top of his forehead. "Where have you been all my life?"

From the corner of his eye, he could see that Shinji looked like he swallowed a whole cactus, which made the whole experience even more worth it.
