Rating: PG-13
Summary: Fuji and Shishido stake out one of the locations Niou comment stalked people from and talk about things while making friendly plans for when they're job ended.

Shishido was staring again. He couldn't help it, he knew he was supposed to be watching the normal looking building across the street but his gaze kept drifting over to his companion. They were seated in a small restaurant that had one of the best dessert menus he'd ever seen and while they had ordered food, and looked like the perfect couple they weren't really out on a date. He was sure the wait staff thought they were adorable, how he couldn't keep his eyes off of her and how cute his 'girlfriend' was. But that was all just a cover, his date was his best friend Fuji dressed as a girl. A really convincing girl at that, and that was probably why he couldn't help be keep looking back. It was just so amazing to him that Fuji could look like that without an image inducer.

Forcing his line of sight back to the building across the street, Shishido reminded himself why they were there. They were there to spy on Niou, assuming he would show up across the street at all today. It was a gamble to stake out this place since this Niou character seemed allergic to using the same computer more than once but a number of comments had originated from that building. So it was a good a place to start as any, and even if they didn't spot Niou, they might at least learn something about him or his friends.

"Do you think he'll show?" Shishido asked after a moment, keeping his voice low as he glanced back at Fuji. His eyes strayed to his friend's lips and once again wondered if he was wearing lip gloss and how it had stayed on so well after their time at the restaurant.

"He might," Fuji suggested noncommittally. He knew the chances of finding their newest stalker were fairly slim based on his previous login habits, but it was the fact that Niou actually did present himself as a stalker that assured Fuji that he wouldn't be found. He'd know all the right tricks, of course. It was more likely that Niou was watching them, which prompted Fuji's disguise in the first place ... or at least gave him an excuse.

He'd also decided, sometime over the course of this evening, that he wanted to find this person sooner rather than later. While he hadn't presented himself as particularly dangerous, Fuji knew too well that information was an unlikely and potent weapon, and anyone who threatened to use knowledge they weren't meant to be privy to was going to take exponential damage, if he had anything to say about it.

Unfortunately, it didn't mean that Ryou wasn't distracting. Fuji couldn't help sweeping his eyes over his teammate's body, even if he didn't intend to do anything about it. Not tonight, at any rate. "How long do you want to stay here?"

Shishido adjusted the hat he wore and considered the building across the street. They'd been watching it for several hours now and there was only so much time they could loiter in the restaurant without drawing too much attention. Even with the books added to the table to make it look like they were on a study date, even if not much studying had been done. "At least another hour, I wanted to try that chocolate marble cheesecake thing they have on the menu." Nobody said he couldn't enjoy himself while he worked. "Do you want anything else?"

Just one thing, Fuji thought, considering his friend with an approving smile. But that could wait, of course. There would be time enough for that later. "Not just yet," he said instead. "Go ahead and get whatever you like ... I may have a few bites, if that's okay with you." If Ryou headed over to the counter, then that would give Fuji at least a few moments to focus on the mission. He needed to focus, and he knew it ... really, couldn't Yamato-sempai have suggested one of the other team members? One that Fuji wouldn't be so ... distracted by?

"Yeah sure, no problem. I'll just sweet talk them into giving me the biggest slice they have." Shishido flashed a smile as he stood to head to the counter. After exchanging a few words with the worker behind the counter and assured he'd get his large piece of cheesecake he turned to look back over the restaurant. There was a group of girls in a corner studying, or pretending to just like Fuji and he were. A few couples here and there of varying ages and a lone gentleman who Shishido was quick to call a pervert with just how much time he spent staring at the girls while pretending to read a newspaper. It probably should have worried him that Fuji was getting a lot of the man's attention since he left him alone, but even if Fuji was dressed as a very convincing female, he was still more than capable of taking care of himself. So Shishido just mused himself with watching what was happening in the restaurant and outside of the windows until his cheesecake appeared.

Thanking the waitress and paying he headed back to the table and set the delicious looking dessert in between Fuji and himself. "If you feel your skin crawling from someone watching you, you can thank the pervert in the corner." Shishido flicked his eyes toward the man before shifting his gaze back outside.

"Aah?" Fuji blinked, and followed the line of Shishido's sight to the corner. The man sitting there didn't look that suspicious, he thought, but if Shishido was reading into things ... "Oh, Ryou," he said, turning back to the table and the dessert placed between them, "are you jealous?" He didn't bother covering up a laugh before taking his fork to the cheesecake and trying it.

"W-what?" Shishido sputtered out, practically choking as he swallowed down his cheesecake. He took a sip of his pop and shifted his gaze back towards Fuji. "Besides, it's not like you're into him." At least he very much hoped that Fuji, even dressed as a girl, had better taste than that.

Fuji snuck another glance over his shoulder, flashing the man in the corner a demure smile. "I'm not?" he asked, teasing, even as he looped his hand around Shishido's arm. "Maybe I want both of you ..."

Shishido laughed as he shook his head, "Sorry, I'm not into threesomes." And he certainly hoped that Fuji wasn't either. The guy seemed harmless enough over there in his corner but he still gave him the creeps and the thought of him in bed was almost enough to make the cheesecake unappealing.

"I wonder," Fuji said, more to himself than to Shishido. He really wasn't interested in anyone else, or if the chance existed that he was, it certainly wouldn't be at the same time as anyone he was with. He slipped his hand from Shishido's arm and rested it above his knee, instead, under the table. "Are you even into twosomes?"

"Fuji-senpai," Shishido gasped, his face tinting with a light blush. He was thankful that his wings were hidden from view because he could feel them bristling. "I'm not part of a monastery, of course I like twosomes." He might not have had sex sex yet, but he's certainly dated around a bit and Fuji and him shared a bit of a casual past. Clearly Fuji was just getting off teasing him, again. "And do we have to call it twosomes?" It just sounded weird.

Fuji laughed again -- this was a lot more fun than he'd envisioned, earlier. "We could just call it sex," he suggested, and squeezed Shishido's knee. "Unless you'd like to come up with a special code word for it?" He took another bite of cheesecake, pretending for all the rest of the world that he wasn't coming dangerously close to molesting his 'date' under the table.

Shishido looked at the table, as if he could see Fuji's hand on his leg through the wood. He was used to Fuji touching him, enjoyed the closeness, but with Fuji dressed as a girl, their conversation topic and the fact that they were in public made him feel slightly uncomfortable. "Well what are some of the code words you would use?" Maybe the ridiculousness of the euphimisms for sex would lighten the mood.

"Oh, I don't know," Fuji admitted, in a way that said that he did know and just didn't want to talk about it. "I was hoping you might have some ideas. Otherwise ... hmm." He tilted his head and studied Shishido quite thoroughly, lips curved into his characteristic smile. "No, I don't think I need a code word. Not if it's with you." He moved his hand higher on Shishido's thigh.

"Uh... Fuji," Shishido choked out well trying to maintain that he was still in complete control of his body. "Shouldn't we be watching the house?" He forced his hand to move to pick up his fork and take a piece of his cheesecake. Casual was key, acting completely flustered would just encourage Fuji to poke more fun at him. Though pretending to be casual while completely failing at it probably had the same effect.

"I suppose so," Fuji agreed. Nothing had happened at the house across the street for a good while, now, and Fuji doubted that it would. His doubt conflicted with the knowledge that surveillance really should have been important ... if boring. If Yamato-senpai had intended for them to get any real work done, he'd have volunteered himself for the mission, anyway; he knew how Fuji and Shishido were. With a sigh, Fuji set down his fork -- but kept his hand on Shishido's leg -- and looked back to their target.

The hand was still there but at least they weren't talking about sex and threesomes anymore. The change in topic allowed him to eat more of his dessert without choking as he dutifully kept his eyes trained on the window. At least for a few bites, and then his eyes slowly drifted back to Fuji. "What are you doing when we're done this?" he asked. He hoped there wasn't fancy reports that had to be written just to say that they saw nothing of interest.

"Done?" Fuji echoed, a smile playing across his lips. He had a feeling he knew what Shishido was getting at, considering the topic of their conversation, and he could very easily just agree to it, but where would be the fun in that? He'd play naive for now, to see if Shishido might confirm it or not. "That depends on what you're asking, Ryou-kun."

"We don't have paperwork to do after do we?" Shishido asked before taking another bite of cheesecake. He was still rather new to the whole X-Prime thing and while he didn't want to look like a slacker that didn't mean he looked forward to paperwork in addition to classwork. "Because in the movies, heroes go for drinks when they're done their work and relax with friends." Not that hanging out with Fuji all day felt like work but he could hardly relax and enjoy himself when he was trying to watch for weirdo stalker Niou.

Fuji laughed. "Aah ... no, this isn't the movies," he said. He hadn't encountered any mandatory paperwork in his history with X-Prime, however, and he didn't think that that tradition was about to change anytime soon. "But it doesn't mean that we can't relax ..." In fact, he fully intended to do just that when they were done with the mission. "We'll just have to let the others know that we haven't found anything," he added. "Unless we do..." There still wasn't any movement at the building across the street, so Fuji doubted it.

"I'm not holding my breath on something happening." Shishido took a last large bite of his dessert to finish it off before leaning back against the chair, careful of his bound wings. "But I'm up for relaxing when we get back." It shouldn't take more than a few minutes to write an email to the team to tell them what they found, or didn't. But first they had to finish their time at their look out spot. Forcing his gaze off of Fuji's glossy lips, he looked back out the window, his hand moving to his lap to entwine his fingers with Fuji's.
