>From the Pen of a Sleep Deprived Red Skye.

M/M
Fraser discovers the joy's of Junk Food, with a little help from Elaine and
a big hand (or should that be paw) from Deifenbaker. Nothing here but silly
stuff and a little slash fluff PWP
========================

 "Stay away from me!" Fraser yelled throwing up a hand and backing away
from Ray as a he held a much abused handkerchief to a very red nose and
sneezed violently.
 "How am I supposed to take you to the Doctor if you won't let me within 6
feet?"
 "I don't need a..a..ah.. ah.." Another violent sneeze racked Fraser's body
and he groaned grabbing at his ribs.
 "You *need* a doctor."
 "I will need my ribs strapped if you don't' stay away from me.. It's
*you*!"
 Ray stopped approaching perplexed.
 "It's that.. horrible new scent your wearing.. I started sneezing the
first time you wore it around me.. I stop after you leave, and don't start
till you get in range again."
 "You're allergic to my aftershave."
 "Yes! Stay away from me, *please*.. I can't take much more of this.. My
nose is on fire, I think I sprained a rib sneezing.. My ribs hurt, my gut
hurts.. My head hurts."
 Ray started backing up.
 "I'm going, I'm going.. I won't wear it around you again.. In fact, I'll
throw it out as soon as I get home. I never liked it anyway. It makes me
think of my father."
 "Oh so you only wore it to torture me."
 "I didn't know you were allergic to it. I just wore it because my mother
gave it to me.. She probably picked it because it smells like the stuff my
father wore.. which is probably why I never liked it.. but I put it on
because it makes her happy and she's been depressed since her friend died..
I did it to cheer her up."
 Fraser gave an anything but delicate sniffle and looked at his hanky.
 "My nose is bleeding!" he wailed, and waved the now almost blood soaked
hanky around as evidence, not that it was necessary it was blatantly
obvious, the blood was streaming from Fraser's nose.
 "I'm gone."
 And he was a moment later.

   ======*======

 Mr's Vecchio gave a little sniff of the air as Ray bent over the back of
her chair to drop a kiss on her head.
 "What are you doing?"
 "What are you *wearing*? That is not the scent I gave you."
 "I had to throw that out."
 She spun in the chair to look at him.
 "You should have seen the effect it had on Fraser.. he was sneezing so
much he burst a vessel in his nose.. There was blood everywhere."
 She wrapped a hand in his shirt and tugged him down to take a good sniff.
 "I know that scent.. That's his scent."
 "Well.. I figured I owed him a break.. I made him sick with the other
scent.. At least I know he isn't going to react badly to his own favourite.
You wouldn't believe how many shops I had to visit to find some."
 She gave him another sniff then pushed him away.
 "Don't wear that around your sister.. She'll think Benton's in the house
and go looking for him."
 Ray laughed.
 "Or start to wonder what you have been doing with him that left you
smelling like him."
 "Ma!"

   ======*======

 It took a week before Fraser noticed what scent Ray was wearing, that's
how long it took Fraser to get his sense of smell back. Ray was startled
when Fraser suddenly started sniffing him intently and swatted him.
 "Stop that."
 "You're wearing my scent."
 "Oh, so you finally noticed."
 "I haven't been able to smell a thing all week. My sense of smell just
came back."
 Then his stomach rumbled and he smiled.
 "And my appetite came back with it.."
 Then he wandered away, sniffing at the air, to sneak up behind Elaine who
was about to bite into a piece of tender crumb coated chicken breast when
he appeared before her with that lady killer smile and a positively lustful
look in his eyes. Her heart skipped and then she realised what he was
looking at as his stomach grumbled again.
 She handed him the chicken with a sigh, he rewarded her with another heart
skipping smile and leaned in to sniff her.
 "You smell almost as good as this does."
 Then he walked off nibbling the breast she let out a love sick sigh and
picked another piece of chicken out of the box, looked around, then walked
away with it.
 
 "You're embarrassing Fraser, you know that." Ray grouched as he watched
Fraser lick the last traces of the now devoured chicken off his fingers.
 "I was hungry.. I haven't been able to eat since I lost my sense of smell.
Everything tasted the same. Bleeeagh."
 Elaine wandered past, his head came up and he rose and followed after her
sniffing the air again. She gave a little smirk as he followed her right
into the corridor to give her neck another sniff or three.
 "Elaine.. You smell ravishing."
 "You think so."
 "Absolutely.. I have this.. sudden desire to nibble on your neck.."
 She giggled and Ray appeared to grab Fraser by the collar spin him around
and send him back to the main office area with a shove. Then he stepped
close to Elaine.
 "Sniff me and weep."
 She frowned, but sniffed, then her eyes widened.
 "You smell just like him."
 "Work it out woman."
 Then he sauntered off after Fraser and pushed him back through the door
and across the room.
 "What ever she's wearing, I like it."
 "It's called eau KFC fillet."
 "What a strange name for perfume."
 "It's not perfume, she noticed how much you wanted her lunch and rubbed a
little chicken over herself to make you sniff happy."
 Elaine burst back into the room.
 "You're Gay!" She shrieked.
 "Ahhhh, she worked it out." He chuckled under her breath.
 "Why are all the best men Gay!" she wailed before she stomped off leaving
the rooms occupants divided between watching her histrionics and Ray and
Fraser. Ray shoved Fraser into his seat before moving around the desk to
sit.
 "Now do you think you can contain you're primal impulses to go out and
hunt long enough for me to finish this report."
 "I'll try."
 "I'll buy you dinner if you sit still and don't embarrass me again."
 "What's for dinner?"
 "Anything your little nose desires."
 "Deal."
 
    ======*======

 Fraser followed Ray up the stairs to his apartment drooling like Deif on
the trail of a jelly doughnut, as Ray carried a bucket of KFC chicken
breast fillets  out of his reach.
 "I never knew junk food could smell or taste so good," Fraser said.
 Ray chuckled and kicked the door to Fraser's apartment open and marched
in, and was mugged by Deif a few seconds later. The bucket flew up.
 "My Dinner!" Wailed Fraser as it tipped somersaulting and showered Ray
with chicken.
 He struck out snatching two of the fillets out of the air he watched the
rest either hitting the floor or getting caught up in Ray's clothes. Deif
snatched up a fillet and Ray shuffled off as he growled.
 "That's the last time you get a jelly doughnut from me, Deifenbaker, mark
my words."
 Fraser followed him, tossing the two fillets to Deif and moved in to start
sniffing at Ray instead.
 "Mhmm.. Eue KFC Fillet, my favourite scent."
 Ray jumped as he licked his neck.
 "And you taste as good as you smell." Then his hand shot down Ray's shirt
to grope around for the fillet he saw slip down the shirt.
 Ray squirmed and tried to get away, without strangling himself.
 "Fraser!"
 "You've got one down your shirt."
 And he proved it, dragging it up, and dragging it up Ray's spine. When
Fraser pulled it out Ray struck snatching it out of his hand before he
could sink his teeth into it.
 "That is so unhygienic."
 Then he tossed it to Deif.
 "There's another one," Fraser announced and his hand slipped into Ray's
pocket and Ray really jumped as Fraser gave him a good grope as he fetched
it out. Ray sent it to Deif too.
 "You know for someone who's alway's polite some of your manners are just
plain atrocious."
 "There's another."
 Ray flung out his arms.
 "Oh go ahead frisk me."
 
 Much much later, Ray sat up in bed, looking down at the Smiling Mountie
and slapped his face.
 "What was that for?"
 "I said Frisk me, No Get frisky with me."
 Fraser laughed and pulled him back down and started sniffing and licking
at him.
 "Have I told you how positively ravishing you smell?"
 "Go ahead, Ravish me."
 Fraser grinned and proceeded to do just that.

 END
 Silly isn't it. That's what Sleep Deprivation will do to you.
