Drabble request four

Title: Breakfast
Fandom: FFX-2
Rating: PG-13
Set: Postgame
Spoilers: None
Pairings: Gippal/Baralai
Prompt: Baralai wakes up one morning to find a loaf of french bread in his bed. What happened? For [livejournal.com profile] iamleaper, who seems to enjoy stories involving Baralai and french bread.
Notes: 100-word drabble. No baked goods were harmed in the making of this story.

The sound of chewing woke me. Opening my eyes, I discovered a half-eaten loaf of french bread on the pillow, flakes of crust littering the sheets, and I lifted my head to glare at the other inhabitant of the bed.

"What?" Gippal said through his mouthful.

"You're making a mess."

"Sorry, 'Lai. Got hungry, needed an early breakfast." His eye twinkled. "You wore me out."

"Flatterer."

He grinned. "Want some?"

I plucked the loaf from his hand and set it on the bedside table. "I'd rather have something else."

He lowered his mouth to mine, all thoughts of food forgotten.

Perfect! I can just imagine Gippal's voice on that "What?" And I love the "all thoughts of food forgotten"... you really have a talent with these little drabbles, you know?

(And, for the record, I put the french bread in just about every request I make. If it's not french bread, it's someone else's pants. ;) Maybe you'll get that one next time!)

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. It was fun to write.

Given your request to [livejournal.com profile] hellbait on this meme, I suspected that the bread is something of a theme with you. At first I wondered if you were angling for a sequel! ;) I actually tried to work up something in that vein but I decided that the relationships there are much too complex to sum up in a hundred-word drabble.
