My first attempt at a DouWata fic.

Nothing special really, written during history while my satanic teacher droned on about some war or something. I was just thinking about how Doumeki is always saying things like "only an idiot can..." you get the idea. This was also written before the current chapters so no worries about spoilers!

Disclaimer: I wouldn't know what the hell was going on even if I did own xxxHolic.


Watanuki stood in the doorway of Yuuko's shop covered in mud and unsuccessfully trying to hide a limp while nursing his injured arm. Doumeki scowled at him angrily he had been waiting for over an hour, while the idiot was out on some errand for Yuuko. "What?" Watanuki asked angrily seeing Doumeki glaring at him.

"Idiot." He muttered leaving to get the first aid kit. He returned and found Watanuki collapsed on the floor. Doumeki sighed and carried him inside and laid him on a bed, what an idiot he shouldn't be getting hurt like this. He began to bandage Watanuki's wounds, he would owe Doumeki several lunches after this. Doumeki had just gotten done bandaging a nasty gash down Watanuki's left leg when he woke up.

"Thanks." He muttered still reluctant, even after having gone through this same routine many times, to show his gratitude.

"You're an idiot." Doumeki said angrily. Watanuki just laughed obviously too depressed right now to argue. Doumeki frowned, the only reason he made fun of Watanuki was so he would argue and get angry.

"I know." He said with a sigh. Doumek smacked a band-aid onto his injured cheek and that brought a hiss out of Watanuki which satisfied him for the moment. He went back into the bathroom and put away the first-aid kit, with a sigh. When he came back he saw Watanuki lying there asleep he didn't look peacful but at least he was resting. Watanuki may have been an idiot but so was Doumeki, because only an idiot could fall in love with an such an idiot.
