[Working!!] Job Hazards (Saito/Yachiyo)
Title: Job Hazards
Fandom: Working!!
Length: 185 words
Prompt: International Day of Femslash 2010: Working!!: the love triangle for
tatics_x
Pairing: Saito/Yachiyo unrequited; Yachiyo/Kyoko
Other: n/a
Excerpt: Smoking is not healthy, but that doesn't stop Saito. He needs something to do with his hands while Yachiyo's fingertips are on Kyoko's forearm.
Smoking is not healthy, but that doesn't stop Saito. He needs something to do with his hands while Yachiyo's fingertips are on Kyoko's forearm, while Kyoko takes the parfait like she's earned Yachiyo's adoration. Saito knows the story; one childhood rescue does not a lifelong love create. Right?
Apparently not. Yachiyo hangs on Saito's arm as well, cheerful and kind, but whatever she sees in Kyoko, she doesn't see in Saito. She doesn't seem to recognize her own emotions on Saito's face. Of course, Saito does what he can to hide it - the ever-present cigarette, bangs in his eyes, head down, sarcasm. He teases Taneshima and cooks and argues with Souma and thinks about hiding the ice cream, but that would make Yachiyo sad.
No matter what happens, no matter how hard it is, he doesn't want to make Yachiyo sad. Not because of the katana, but because he only wants to see her smile.
That doesn't mean that sometimes he doesn't want to choke Kyoko with a spoon, but he knows better than to try it.
