nickngregOkay, so yeah...I'm working on an odd song-fic...but I decided to just take a break..so here's this little thing...
Yeah, so let's see...
Title: Ten Drabble things..I guess
Pairing: NickxGreg
Rating: PG
Summar: 1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it's over. No lingering afterwards!
4. Do ten of these, then post them
I do not own any of the songs, or CSI.
Ten Drabbles
Number 5: Coo Quack Cluck – Ku.Ku.Ru. –Miyavi
Once again, please forgive me if they aren't that good, I only had 3-4 minutes to write each of them, seeing as I listen to short songs alot...
Also, look for my other one-shot soon, called Over the Rainbow (no, that's not a gay pun...honestly...)
Please comment.
Yeah, so let's see...

Ten Drabbles
Number 1: LIPS –KAT-TUN
Greg’s phone wouldn’t stop ringing as he locked the door to his house.
He groaned and picked it up.
There was slight static over, but he could clearly hear the other’s voice.
“Meet me at my place in ten minutes.”
Ten minutes found Greg at the other’s place, knocking on the door.
As the door opened, he raised his hand in greeting, but was immediately pulled inside, the other’s lips covering his.
“I-“A kiss, “thought we stopped-” another one, longer and deeper, “-this.” He muttered in between kisses.
Nick just kissed him once more and grabbed his hand, lacing their fingers together, “I couldn’t stop if I tried to G.”
Number 2: Oh My Juliet –LM.C
It was just another boring party that his friends had dragged him to; he really didn’t want to be at some masquerade party…
“Can I have this dance?”
Now, being who he is, he’s never been the one to turn down someone, male or female, so he just nodded, his mask slipping slightly.
The other smiled, “Good.”
So, he was dragged onto the floor, a slow waltz song played, and he was swung around gracefully.
Before long, he and his mysterious partner were outside on the balcony.
A kiss was exchanged, and suddenly a loud boom, then the balcony crumbled…
…that was the last time he ever saw the other.
Number 3: Drink it Down –L’Arc-en-Ciel
He was trapped again.
The reflective glass in front of him, opaque on one side, reflective on the other.
There was no way out.
He felt the ropes dig into his skin as he struggled, and an echoing voice telling him that it was useless, he’d never get out.
He jumped slightly as a cold hand set itself on his shoulder and warm breath fan out over his neck.
A cruel, taunting laugh echoed through the room, and the other got closer, he shuddered again, feeling teeth gently bite down, then harder.
Blood.
He felt his life force drain away…
The last thing he saw was the glass in front of him shattering and falling to the ground
Number 4: Gold –KAT-TUN
They saw it everyday.
Hate, hunger, death, everything you could imagine.
Those things were the things that made the world go around it seemed.
That didn’t mean that they had to live through them.
“You okay?”
Greg looked up at Nick, “Of course, it’s nothing that doesn’t happen on a daily basis.”
“G, don’t lie to me…you know it bothered you.”
He sighed and let himself fall back into Nick’s arms, “Yeah…I guess…”
“Don’t think anything about it.”
Greg just tried to bury himself deeper, “How do you put up with it?”
“I can’t. I just know that when I’m bothered too much you’re here to hold me. Just like I’m here for you.”
Number 5: Coo Quack Cluck – Ku.Ku.Ru. –Miyavi
Greg remembers his childhood.
He was always considered a genius, always the one asked when someone needed help on something.
It’s not like he didn’t enjoy helping people, it’s just that he wanted to be able to do something by himself for once, and not for some other student.
By the time he reached high school, his mother decided to put him in classes for the gifted students.
He enjoyed it a lot; he made friends who actually liked him for himself and not for his brains.
When he graduated and left behind his life in San Gabriel, he realized then, he’d miss those days where people would be there and actually like him for him, and not his brain…
Number 6: Pinky –Akanishi Jin (the lyrics in parenthesis after the italic ones are the translated ones.)
Nick really didn’t expect to be found in a place like this.
The loud thumping music and the barely dressed people.
He looked helplessly around for someone he knew, after all, someone did invite him, but as to who, he didn’t know.
The music suddenly changed to a heavy beat, and the words were heard clearly through the club.
‘Hey you are my pinky, never cheat on me
Akai it de shibatte (Tie ourselves with red strings)
Do the shake your body come and call about it
Mimi moto de sasayaite (Whispering by the ears)
His eyes were glued to the sight in front of him.
His co-worker, Greg was in the middle of the throng of people…grinding and dancing closely.
Nick couldn’t believe his eyes, it wasn’t like they’d never gone out together to clubs…but this time was different.
He couldn’t take his eyes off the other.
Slowly he made his way to the other, moving through the people that seemed to part like the Red Sea.
Stopping behind Greg, he carefully placed his hands on the other’s hips, and Greg turned around, smirking up at him.
“Thought you’d never make it.” He whispered and proceeded to swallow any retort that Nick may have had.
And…tell me what’s your secret
Kakusanaide (Don’t hide it.)
Kuchibiru de damarasete (Shut me up with your lips)
Number 7: Kirakuni –Crystal Kay
Nick groaned again as he watched Greg pick another useless thing up and place it in the shopping cart.
“Do we really need that?”
Greg nodded and started going towards another useless thing.
“Look, G, how about we leave here and go to dinner.”
The other looked up at Nick, and placed the item on the shelf, nodding happily.
“Okay, you’re paying.”
He rolled his eyes and took the cart to the register, “Sure G…”
“Your total is $105.65 sir.”
Reaching for his wallet, Nick exhaled, “On second thought, I’ll pay half, but next time, just chill out on the groceries G.”
Number 8: I’m Like a Lawyer with the Way I’m Always trying to Get You Off –Fall Out boy
They knew from the start that their relationship would probably fail.
It wasn’t often that inter-office relationships actually followed through till retirement, it was almost like a high school crush.
They’d been told by many of their co-workers that they shouldn’t let their relationship interfere with work.
It hadn’t. They’d kept quiet about it for months, and then everything seemed to go downhill.
That’s when they knew it wouldn’t work.
That’s when they’d broke off…or well he had…
He couldn’t handle it, not with his family…
“Nick…you need to come to the hospital quick…Greg’s been shot…he might not make it.”
For the millionth time, he actually regretted walking out of that door this morning.
Number 9: Hesitate –Akanishi Jin (note: This is a slight spoiler for my other fic that should be up soon.)
They lie in bed; it had been a very long day at work for the both of them. Between the triple homicide that never seemed to end and the majorly backed up lab, everything seemed in complete and total chaos.
Nick sighed quietly and sat up, looking down at the other. Curled up slightly and brown hair askew.
He sighed again, wishing he could just say those three words.
It wasn’t like they were together…they were just friends, with benefits basically. Only coming to each other when they needed it. No strings attached. Just the way a half-way in the closet kinda guy like Nick preferred.
If they were to potentially stop seeking comfort in each other, then there would be no messy break-ups, or hateful words, just a simple phone call saying that they didn’t need to arrangement anymore…
Almost like a one-night stand, but between friends, and for more than just one night.
Nick shook his head and laid back down, embracing the other man from behind and drifted off asleep once more, knowing that in the when he woke up, the other wouldn’t be there.
……….
He was woken up by his alarm clock.
Slapping his hand onto the snooze button, he sat up, noticing the other side of the bed made and cold. Empty.
On the pillow, was a note.
Everything what I say
Once upon a time of you and me
Never forever I'm alone
This silence feels like it would shatter
If I told you now how I feel
I can't go back now, so I'll just hold you
Once upon a time of you and me
Never forever I'm alone
This silence feels like it would shatter
If I told you now how I feel
I can't go back now, so I'll just hold you
The writing was typed, and it sound almost musical, under it was Greg’s written message.
I’m sorry I’m such a coward to say it to you in person…
…I love you.
Number 10: Motherland –Crystal Kay
Nick’s goodbye message had shocked them all.
It was a simple, ‘I’m sorry, I need some time.’ It wasn’t clear how he needed it, whether he was re-thinking his relationship, or if he was re-thinking his job.
They had brought in a temporary replacement, another Texan, born and raised in Austin, and a certified asshole.
Well, that was Greg’s opinion.
The other always made rude comments about his sexuality, and how Nick probably left to get away from the fag.
Greg didn’t let it bother him, he just calmly asked for a vacation.
Grissom didn’t push him, and allowed him to take a week off.
When he came back the week after, he went in the lab, Judy smiling happily at him, telling him that he should go to the break room because Grissom wanted to talk to him.
Nodding, he walked back into the building, head down.
When he reached the doors, he pushed them open and looked up, stopping dead in his tracks.
“Nick…?”
The other smiled and nodded.
Without caring, he ran over to him and threw his arms around him, “Don’t you ever do that to me again you bastard.”
Nick just made hushing sounds and wrapped his arms around the other, “I won’t…I know where my home is…”
Once again, please forgive me if they aren't that good, I only had 3-4 minutes to write each of them, seeing as I listen to short songs alot...
Also, look for my other one-shot soon, called Over the Rainbow (no, that's not a gay pun...honestly...)

Date: 2008-04-15 07:22 pm (UTC)Worthless letter.
Anyways, I saw a hint of angst and more than just a smidgen of fluff. And only a few minutes for each one? Wow. Honestly, I wouldn't even be able to get a complete sentence. A dependent clause, sure, but not much more than that, lol.
But I did enjoy your stories, though. :)
Oh, and just a suggestion if you endeavour another project such as this, maybe you could utilise bold font or some other marker to separate your stories and/or lyrics if you incorporate them; since the stories are nearly drabbles (I'm not counting but they look around 100 words give or take), it would make them seem less jumbled.
But then again, I'm told I can be a really anal retentive person...so, I doubt this is really a need be thing.

Date: 2008-04-15 08:34 pm (UTC)It's the songs fault..I tell you.
I was really worried to do this too, because I could have randomly got the song Make U Wet and that would have been -----
Yeah, the shortest song I had in this one was Oh My Juliet which is about 3:47.
I was really lucky not to get Freak Out which is 1:28 or Bonnie Butterfly which is borderlining 2 minutes.
I don't know what happened to my marker thingy, it just dissappeared when I copied it from word. I'm not really sure how long they are, just realy short.
I'll keep the suggestion in mind though. Vista probably ate them again.
XD
