darkilk | Sakumoto Drabble: Take A Deep Breath (Reply)

Too long away from writing, and desperately wishing for proper writing time to complete "Thunderstorms and Tempest". In the meantime, a little drabble after the much-beloved Sakumoto HnA episode with snakes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pairing: Sakumoto (when has been anything else? LOL)
Rating: G
Disclaimer: Purely a figment of my imagination; the fic, that is. Not them, of course. :)
Summary: You can assume this "behind-the-scene" takes place after the filming of "The Last Mission" from 23022012 Himitsu no Arashi-chan.

"Revenge, Sho-kun, is a dish best served cold."

Jun's veiled mock-threat as he exited was only effective in sending a shiver down Sho's spine... one of anticipation that the older man more than welcomed.
