Rating: PG.... 13?
Choutarou made sure that his scarf hid a good portion of his face when he finally stood in front of Shishido’s house. He didn’t want him to see it right away. The slap his father had given him on new years eve had left behind a nice dark bruise on his cheekbone. There was no way that Shishido wouldn’t see it some time, but he didn’t want him to see it immediately. Slowly he opened the door and put his bag down while he opened his Coat. “Tadaima~”, He called into the house and soon after heard the patter of Kaji’s paws as he ran to him to greet his second master. “Yeah, good boy. Did Shishido-san feet you well while I was gone?”, He asked the dog and scratched him behind his ears.
The dog reveled in the long missed attention, trying to get as much of it as he could before his other master could realize that Choutarou was back. He rolled over onto his stomach, legs in the air, and enjoyed the tummy rub with a fast wagging of his tail.
Shishido wasn’t far behind, though and he smiled at the sight of Choutarou. He didn’t approach him immediately, waiting until Kaji had moved out of the way before he finally stepped forward. His steps closer were a little slow. He breathed in slowly before grabbing a hold of the other’s scarf and tugging him down a bit. He just stared into Choutarou’s eyes for a long moment before taking a deep breath in, shifting Choutarou’s scarf and closing the distance between them, lips meeting lips.
Choutarou almost wanted to pull Shishido’s hand away when he reached for his scarf but something in Shishido’s eyes kept him from doing it and instead he just stood there confused what was wrong with Shishido. But then, as Shishido pulled the scarf back and came closer just to lay his lips upon Choutarou’s, the taller boy didn’t know what to think anymore. Why... why did Shishido kiss him? He had thought that he still loved Kamakari. Or was he just a replacement? After almost returning the kiss Choutarou finally came back to live and pushed Shishido away. “Why....?”, was the only thing he could ask with a shaky voice that showed more of his vulnerability than he’d wanted.
As he was pushed away, Shishido flinched and he let his hands drop to his side. His gaze fell to concentrate on his feet as he stepped back a couple steps to give Choutarou more space. “I said... I was thinking about things,” he said quietly, not daring to look up at him. “About you... how you felt about me... and... how I felt about you...”
Choutarou was scared as he heard that. He almost wanted to run. It was one thing to tell Shishido that he loved him but to be just seconds away from an answer to his unspoken question was almost too much for him right now. “You know how I feel about you”, he whispered staring to the side and clenched his fists so he wouldn’t run.
“I know,” Shishido nodded, his own hands slowly curling into fists at his sides. He had never been good with this sort thing. With feelings and admitting them, any sort to anyone. It was just something he found so hard to do, and he couldn’t really figure out why. Except for maybe feelings being ‘girly’ most of the time. “Choutarou, I...” He trailed off before taking a deeper breath and trying again. “I like you... in a different way to Kamakari-san.... better... more"
Choutarou frowned slightly trying to understand what Shishido-san meant. “So you... why did you kiss me?”, he asked still confused.
Shishido didn’t answer for a moment before he finally lifted his gaze and looked straight at him. “I was curious,” he admitted. “I... wanted to see if it was okay... to see if it would help.”
“If it would help? Help with what?”, Choutarou asked upset, didn’t know why he was upset anyway. Shishido had kissed him because he was curious? What reason was that? He knew how Choutarou felt and still he had kissed him because he was curious?
“I can’t ask you out if I’m not sure about what I feel,” Shishido said, forcing some confidence into his voice. “I had to figure if I just wanted to kiss you to see what you’d do because of how you feel... or if I wanted to kiss you because.... I wanted you. I already know I need you around here otherwise me and Kaji wouldn’t survive.”
“Don’t say that. You would survive. You did survive before I was here too”, Choutarou said with a sad face, and couldn’t look at Shishido right now. He didn’t want to think of Shishido dieing. “And.... did you found the answer”, he whispered, afraid of the answer.
Shishido didn’t say anything. He took a step closer after hesitating for a moment and reached a hand forward to lightly grab hold of Choutarou’s scarf. He started at it for a moment. “Choutarou, look at me...”
Slowly Choutarou lifted his head with an almost scared look. He was so afraid of the answer.
The prince took another step closer and took a deep breath. He held his gaze, refusing to look away or back down. “I found an answer...” he said quietly. “Choutarou... will you... um....” He flushed slightly in nervousness and forced himself to just blurt it out. “Choutarou,willyougooutwithme?”
Blink blink. Blink blink. It took Choutarou perhaps half a minute until he really understood what Shishido just had asked him. Then his eyes became wide and his head competed with a tomato. “You..... I ….uh..... ye.....yes, of course...Shishido-san”, he stuttered, not knowing what to say or to think. Shishido had asked him out.
Shishido wasn’t quite sure what he was expecting but he found himself feeling relieved when Choutarou said yes, as if he’d been nervous that been rejected. He gave a grin though at the answer. “Great!”
“Ah...hai”, Choutarou murmured sheepish and scratched the back of his head, not knowing what to do now. Were they really together now? He didn’t know and was to scared to ask.
Still grinning, Shishido pulled Choutarou closer again for another kiss, though this one was slower, more deliberate. He ran a hand up into the younger’s hair slowly.
Again Choutarou was at first too surprised to answer the kiss but then he closed his eyes and slowly leaned into the kiss and lifted his hands up to lay them on Shishido’s back. It felt incredible to be able to hold Shishido like this, finally.
Shishido worried when Choutarou didn’t kiss back but relaxed a moment later when he did. Wrapping his other arm around the other’s neck, the prince tip toed so he could get a better reach. He did eventually pull away, though, and it was with a panted breath that next spoke. “Ch-Choutarou...” He pressed a hand softly to the other’s cheek. “What happened?”
Choutarou could have continued to kiss Shishido for hours but eventually Shishido ended the kiss and then Choutarou felt his hand on his cheek and winced slightly as it brushed over the bruise. “I did what you told me. I just thought of me for once. I told my parents that I already have somebody I love and that I won’t marry the girl they picked for me. As Father heard that I love a man he slapped me”, Choutarou said, knew that Shishido wouldn’t stop until he knew what happened. But he wouldn’t tell him that his Parents didn’t want to see him until he’d give Shishido up. He didn’t need to know that.
A frown pulled at Shishido’s lips as Choutarou spoke, his eyes hardening. “Who the fuck does he think he is?” He growled quietly and pulled Choutarou close. “He has no right to do that to you. I don’t care if he’s your dad. You’re old enough to make your own choices without needing his permission.”
Choutarou let himself pulled in and rested his forehead on Shishido’s shoulder while his arms wrapped around Shishido’s back. He didn’t want to see the look in his loves eyes. It hurt him.
“He is very religious. He thinks it’s a sin.....”, he murmured.
Shishido rested the side of his against Choutarou’s and closed his eyes. “Do you think it’s a sin?” he asked quietly, his hands rubbing the other’s back slowly.
Slowly he shook his head. “How could anything that makes me play beautiful music be a sin?”, he asked back. No he didn’t thought that it was wrong to love Shishido.
“Then forget about it,” Shishido said quietly and turned his head to kiss Choutarou’s temple. “He has no right to force his beliefs on you, even if he is your father.”
“But they are my family”, Choutarou sighed and tightened the hug. He didn’t want to think of it right now.
“... I know,” Shishido sighed and closed his eyes, squeezing his arms around Choutarou tightly. “Come on,” he said quietly, pulling away slowly and taking one of the younger’s hands. “Come lie down.”
“Eh? Lie down? But.. I just came back. I have to unpack and have to make something for dinner.” Choutarou said quickly, hadn’t even slipped out of his shoes yet.
Shishido shook his head slowly. “Unpack later,” he said. “And we can just order takeout. I just wanna lie down with you for a bit.”
Choutarou sighed slightly and nodded. “But let me take off my shoes and the coat at least”. he said and took off his coat and shoes. “Now we can lie down if you want”, he said with a gentle smile, and took Shishido’s hand.
Shishido gave him a smile and led him towards the bedroom. He sat down on the edge of the bed then lay back down, tugging Choutarou’s arm to get him to lie down beside him.
Choutarou looked at Shishido for a moment before he finally lay down beside him, laying on the side and still looking at Shishido. His brain still tried to understand what had happened. Shishido had asked him out. He just couldn’t believe it.
The prince watched him quietly for a moment before smiling slightly and shifting closer to him. He curled into Choutarou’s chest and closed his eyes, one hand draping over the larger boy’s side.
Gently Choutaro lay an arm over Shishido’s side and pulled him even a bit closer, breathing a kiss on his head. He was happy, now in this moment he was really really happy. To be with the one he loved was something fortunate.
Shishido leaned his head back a little to press a kiss to Choutarou’s chin before tucking his head under his chin. “I missed you, Choutarou,” he murmured quietly against his chest.
Choutarou smiled slightly as he felt the kiss and rubbed his cheek slightly against Shishido’s head. “I missed you too Shishido’san”, He whispered.
“You’re... not planning on disappearing again anytime soon, are you?” Shishido asked him quietly, one hand gripping onto Choutarou’s shirt. He hated admitting it, but he didn’t like being alone. He had been alone before by choice after cutting as many ties as he could from his family, but then Choutarou had showed up and Shishido had gotten used to having him around and when Choutarou wasn’t there, he was reminded about how much he hated being alone.
Choutarou was a bit surprised at that question but smiled again. “No Shishido-san I won’t go away again. If it would be up to me I’d stay here forever”, he assured the other and gently rubbed his back.
Shishido smiled slightly at that and relaxed against him. “Then stay forever.”
“If you let me, then I will”, Choutarou said finally closing his eyes.
“I’ll let you,” Shishido murmured with a slow exhale. “I’ll always let you.”
Again Choutarou kissed the top of Shishido's head. “Then I’ll always stay with you”, he said happy and probably could stay like this forever, if he wouldn’t feel hungry slowly. But he didn’t want to break the nice atmosphere.
Shishido smiled and stayed quiet, taking a moment to just enjoy having Choutarou back again. He hadn’t been gone for that long, but Shishido had missed him a lot all the same.
The moment didn’t last long, though, disturbed by a whimper from beside the bed. Kaji had been waiting patiently but he was hungry and he wanted food. Now.
Choutarou sighed slightly as he heard the whimper. He’d loved to ignore it right now, but he couldn’t do that. He lifted Shishido’s head up and gave him one last kiss before he sat up again and looked at Kaji. “What is it boy, hm? Hungry?”, he asked with a gentle smile.
Shishido pouted a little at the whimper and the fact that Choutarou had actually responded to it. He’d been liking the closeness. Stupid Kaji ruining it... Except Kaji did need to be fed, and they did eventually as well, so it was probably a good idea he disturbed them, otherwise Shishido was pretty sure he was going to fall asleep.
Choutarou petted Kaji before he looked back at Shishido and saw the small pout. Instantly he leaned towards Shishido and gave him another kiss. “We have all night after all”, he smiled witt a wink. “So should I make something or do you still want takeout?”
“... Whichever you want,” Shishido said. He had missed Choutarou’s cooking, but if Choutarou didn’t want to cook then he was fine with getting them both take out again. “Do you feel like cooking?”
“Do we have enough things to cook something?”, Choutarou asked with a grin, wondering if Shishido had done the shopping.
Shishido shrugged. “You’ll have to check the cupboards,” he said, running his hand through his hair. “I haven’t been shopping.”
Choutarou sighed. “Let’s just order something and I’ll see what we have to buy tomorrow okay?”, he asked and would rather snuggle up against Shishido again.
“Sounds like a plan,” Shishido nodded. Takeout meant he got more time to lie down with Choutarou, especially if they got it delivered.
“Okay, you order something and I’ll give Kaji his food. I think he needs it more badly than we do”, he said with a smile and, for the first time, ran his fingers through Shishido’s hair, at least for the first time that Shishido would notice it. It felt nice, almost better now that he was allowed to do it.
Shishido nodded and dug in his pocket for his cell phone. The hand in his hair made him pause for a moment and he closed his eyes to lean up into it with a small smile. “Anything in particular you want?” he asked slowly.
“u~un”, Choutarou shook his head with a slight smile. “I’m okay with anything. I’ll take what you take”, he shrugged and continued to run his fingers through Shishido’s hair before he leaned forward and kissed a strand. “You know... I was really sad when I heard that you had cut your hair. Strange isn’t it? I mean, we didn’t know each other, and I always just watched you from far but I was still sad”, he admitted with a slight chuckle and shook his head.
“... I was sad as well,” Shishido said slowly, cracking an eye open just enough to see him. “Which is why I decided to grow it out again. I miss having hair that long.” It had taken him at least a year to get used to the lack of weight on his head. He knew there were some who weren’t sad at his loss, though. Girls who had been jealous that a guy like him had hair better than theirs.
“So you want to let it grow back to it’s original length?”, Choutarou asked curious and also very happy. He’d loved to see Shishido with his really long hair again. Somehow he seemed to be addicted to long hair.
Shishido nodded and gave a smile. “Yeah,” he said, running a hand through it. “It’ll take a while though. It took almost eight years to grow it out that length.” He hated his hair for the way that it took a year to reach the length it was now, just past his shoulders, but from then it seemed to grow only a couple inches a year.
Choutarou just smiled and gave Shishido another kiss. “I’d love you even if you were bald”, he said chuckling. “And didn’t you want to order something to eat?”, he then reminded his boyfriend before he finally stood up. “Come Kaji. Time to eat for you”, he smiled at the dog.
“I’d die if I was bald,” Shishido pouted, a hand protectively holding his hair. “And yes, I was. Pizza sound good?” It was cheap and delivered and he was pretty sure there was at least a couple beers in the fridge to go with it.
That made Choutarou laugh. “Pizza sounds perfect”, he nodded before he left the room to give Kaji his food. Scratching the dog behind his ears he looked for a can of dog food. “God Kaji.... I’m so happy I think I could die right now”, he just said with an angelic smile on his face.
Shishido nodded and hit one of his speed dial numbers. Most of the speeddial numbers were fast food places that delivered, because the fast food was the easiest meal when he was busy with disciplinary committee stuff. Or for when Choutarou wasn’t around. He lay down on his bed as he placed the order then closed his phone, staring up at the ceiling with a wide smile.
After Choutarou had fed Kaji and went back to Shishido’s bedroom he stopped in the doorway for a moment, just watching his love lying on the bed. he had watched Shishido sleep some times as he still had slept in the same room but it was different now. He didn’t have to wish for Shishido to understand his feelings anymore. He didn’t watched him with the feeling of yearning but with the knowledge that this man was his boyfriend now... or at least they were dating. If Shishido really thought of him as his boyfriend now?
It took Shishido a long moment to realize that Choutarou was standing in the doorway. When he did, he blinked before smiling at him a moment later. He shifted over, shoving his phone under his pillow, and patted the space beside him without a word. He had a strange urge to just keep the other as close to he could for as long as he could. He wasn’t sure why.
With a loving smile Choutarou stepped closer again sitting down on the bed without letting his eyes leave Shishido for even a second. “You’re beautiful”, he whispered before he leaned forward to breath a kiss on Shishido’s lips.
Shishido smiled at that and brushed his lips over Choutarou’s. “So are you,” he murmured against his lips before reaching up to tug him to lie down beside him. He rolled onto his side and shifted a little closer to him. “Pizza should be here in about twenty minutes.”
Choutarou chuckled slightly as he lay down beside Shishido to run his fingers once again through the dark brown hair. “Plenty of time then”, he smiled before he leaned forward again to claim the other’s lips.
The prince hummed an agreement against Choutarou’s lips and lifted his arms to wrap them around the other’s neck. He shifted closer to him, pressing as close against him as he could.
Choutarou didn’t mind either the arms around his neck nor the fact that Shishido pressed closer against him. He loved to hold the other like this, he loved to kiss him, he just loved everything about him.
Shishido was a little surprised to find himself becoming so quickly addicted to kissing this guy. The faint taste of Choutarou left on his lips after each kiss just made him want more. He had been worried when he had been thinking, that if anything did happen between him and Choutarou that he might be distracted by thoughts of his old mentor but something about the younger boy made it hard to think of anything except Choutarou. And Shishido didn’t mind it one bit.
If Choutarou’d get a minute to really think about everything he might wonder about what Shishido still felt about Kamakari-sama, but right now that didn’t matter. Shishido was here with him, kissing him, and not away to fool around with his old mentor, that was everything he needed to know right now to be happy.
After a moment, Shishido broke the kiss so he could just rest his forehead against Choutarou’s and stare into his eyes for a moment. “You can stay here tonight if you want,” he murmured.
This made Choutarou blush a bit. He still didn’t seem to fully understand what happened. If Shishido hadn’t said that right now he would have gone to his room as always, dreaming of his boyfriend but... they lived together. “If you want that... sure”, he smiled slightly.
Shishido gave a slow nod. “I liked it better when you were sleeping in here,” he admitted quietly, but didn’t look away from Choutarou’s eyes. “And you can feel less awkward since... you’re my boyfriend now.”
“Yeah for about, what, an hour?”, Choutarou chuckled but was extremely happy as he heard that Shishido called him his boyfriend. “But sure. I can sleep here today”, he smiled and gave Shishido another kiss. He just couldn’t get enough of it. “But why did you like it better back then?”, he then asked curious.
Shishido was quiet for a moment and he glanced away. “I liked the company,” he murmured. “I’ve lived alone for a while now so having the company... It was nice. And I know Kaji liked having you in here as well.”
“I liked it too”, Choutarou admitted. He had mainly wanted his own room back then because he didn’t want to accidentally blow his feelings for Shishido. Back then he didn’t want him to find out and an own room seemed him to be the safest method.
“Then stay in here,” Shishido said slowly, looking back at him. “I mean... you don’t have to stay every night so we can leave your room how it is if you want your own space or something.”
Choutarou nodded with a loving smile. “Okay. We’ll do it like that”, he said and again ran his fingers through his friends hair. “I don’t know why but I just can’t get enough of that feeling”, he chuckled slightly.
Shishido smiled and leaned up into the hand. “Don’t stop,” he murmured, closing his eyes. He loved the feeling and it felt so much nicer knowing it wasn’t his own hand in his hair anymore.
“I won’t”, the taller boy smiled and continued to caress the prince. “At least not until our pizza arrives”, he chuckled.
“Pizza over me, huh?” Shishido asked with a soft chuckle before breathing out slow and relaxing against the hand in his hair.
“No, never. Rather pizza with you but for that we’ll need the pizza”, Choutarou explained smiling.
Shishido nodded. “Kaji might try and steal some,” he said. “Unless he’s gone to lie on your bed or something.” The dog wasn’t in the room at the moment, still eating, probably, or lying down somewhere else.
“Yeah he’ll probably will. It’s because you spoil him too much”, Choutarou said with a gentle smile. “Just as you spoil me.”
“There is nothing wrong with spoiling him,” Shishido pouted, opening an eye. “And there’s nothing wrong with spoiling you, either.”
“I didn’t say that it is wrong as long as he knows what he is allowed to do and what not”, Choutarou said smiling and gave Shishido a kiss on the cheek while he continued to play with his hair.
Shishido shrugged and closed his eye again. “He knows what he can and can’t do,” he said. “There’s just... little that he can’t do.”
“And me?”, Choutarou asked curious. Lying here with Shishido so close felt so incredibly good and Choutarou wondered if he’d ever feel the urge to go back to his own room if he could have this instead.
“I don’t think you need me telling you what you can and can’t do, Choutarou,” Shshido said quietly. “You should know what you’re allowed to do. And you can always ask if you aren’t sure.”
“Alright. I’ll ask if I’m not sure”, Choutarou smiled happy. Thought he was a lot more confident around Shishido and the other DC members he was still insecure now and then about certain things.
Shishido just hummed softly and leaned into him. It was warm and being able to be so close to Choutarou made him feel a little fuzzy. He wasn’t sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing but he didn’t mind it. He wondered if this was what Kaji felt like when he got to snuggle him.
The taller boy chuckled slightly at the sight and placed a kiss on Shishido’s forehead. He just wanted to say something when they heard the doorbell. “I think that’s the pizza. How about we’ll eat in the living room on the couch. Watching a movie, with beer and pizza sounds okay doesn’t it?”, he said with a gentle smile as he slowly got up to get the pizza.
Shishido didn’t really want to move but he gave a nod in agreement. It sounded like a damn good idea. “What movie?” he asked as he moved as well, passing Choutarou his wallet to pay for the pizza before going to the kitchen to get the beer out of the fridge.
“Just pick one”, Choutarou just shrugged and took the wallet and went to the front door to take the pizza and then pay the boy with a beaming smile that made the boy blush pretty. After he came back into the living room Shishido was already there with the beer. And Kaji as well. He probably had smelled the pizza.
“Star Wars!” Shishido declared with a grin, pulling the DVD for the first movie out of his collection and put it into the player before settling down on the couch. “Mmm, that smells so good~!”
“Hm? That will be interesting..... I never watched them”, Choutarou admitted with a slight smile and sat down on the couch too, putting an arm around Shishido and pulling him in so he could lean slightly against Choutarou while both would still be able to eat. “What is it about again? I know that it’s something SF...and that there is some force or something like that.”
Shishido leaned against him and picked up a slice of pizza before starting off a long tirade about just what the movies were all about and who the characters were and how much better the original trilogy was compared to the latest trilogy. The tirade managed to last the entire opening credits before finally taking a bite of his pizza.
Choutarou listened carefully and even if it was just to hear Shishido’s voice. The film sounded interesting. And Shishido seemed to really love that trilogy. He knew so much about it. Silently he started to eat his own pizza as they watched the film.
Shishido didn’t say anything the whole duration of the movie, except for the occasional shout at the movie to tell the characters how stupid they are. Most of the time, he was busy eating pizza or sipping at his beer. He had never watched Star Wars with someone other than his brother, so actually having someone to watch it with made it even better.
Every now and then when Shishido yelled at the poor characters again Choutarou chuckled silently and placed a kiss on the other’s hair. Shishido was really into the film. So he just ate his pizza and drank his beer in silence and watched Shishido more than the film.
The little kiss didn’t go unnoticed and he glanced up at Choutarou for a brief moment afterwards before kissing his chin and returning his attention to the movie, snuggling a little closer to him.
It made Choutarou chuckle slightly and he leaned his head against Shishido’s before he looked back at the TV.
Shishido’s attention remained glued to the movie for the rest of the time it played, punctuated with telling the characters off some more, both clearly and around mouthfuls of pizza. When it finally finished and the credits started to roll, the smaller man leaned his head back to look up at Choutarou with a grin. “Well?” He asked expectantly. “What do you think?”
Choutarou didn’t really know if he should look at the movie or at Shishido, though Shishido was more tempting. Watching him losing himself in that movie was something fascinating, but eventually the Movie caught Choutarou himself and he decided to watch the film. He could watch Shishido the entire night if he wanted. So he returned to eating his pizza and listening to his boyfriend. Though eventually the movie ended and Shishido asked him what he thought. “Hm... it is interesting. I’m not much into science fiction but I have to say that it really caught me and I wonder what will happen in the other movies.”
“Well, we can always watch the other two,” Shishido suggested, making himself comfortable against Choutarou. The pizza was almost completely gone. “Unless you have to be up early tomorrow...”
Well he had to be up early tomorrow, but Shishido seemed to really love these films so he slightly shook his head. “No I don’t have to. So if you want we can watch them”, he smiled gently and breathed a kiss on Shishido’s hair.
Shishido grinned at Choutarou’s agreement and he jumped at his feet. A minute later, he was returning to his seat, having changed the DVD for the next move. “No one else watches with me,” he pouted.
A little chuckle escaped Choutarou as he heard that. “How can they?”, he asked playfully shocked and pulled Shishido in his embrace. Now that his pizza was gone he had more rook for his boyfriend.
“Because they’re weird,” Shishido complained, leaning all his weight into Choutarou and shifting one arm on top of his boyfriend’s arm. “Star Wars is just too awesome for them to handle.”
“I’m sure it is”, Choutarou chuckled and leaned his head on Shishido’s shoulder. It felt so nice to sit here with his love in his arms that he probably could sit here for ages.
Shishido didn’t move at all during the second movie, except occasionally to readjust his position to get a little bit more comfortable. By the end of the movie, though, he was having trouble staying awake after getting so comfortable.
“Hm....?”, Choutarou tilted his head slightly to look at Shishido. “Ne.. why don’t we watch the last part tomorrow evening and go to bed now? You seem tired Shishido-san”, he said with a gentle smile and ran his fingers through his senpai’s hair.
Shishido stifled a yawn and glanced up at him. “Mmm... okay,” he said and slowly sat up properly. He finished off the last of his beer and stood up, stretching his arms over his head.
Choutarou nodded with a gentle smile before he stood up and collected the pizza boxes to quickly bring them in the kitchen before he went back to Shishido and just embraced him gently. “Then.... lets go to bed...”, he almost whispered and breathed a kiss on his friends cheek.
“Yeah, bedtime,” Shishido agreed and grabbed Choutarou’s hand. Gently tugging at it, he led the younger man to his room, Kaji following along behind them. Once he reached the room, he pulled his shirt off over his head and began searching around for a pair of the lounge pants he normally slept in.
“Shishido-san”, the taller boy chuckled and held out the pair of pants Shishido was probably looking for, “here.” After the other had taken the pants, Choutarou himself started to undress before he put on his pajama. For a moment he was thinking if he should get Aki, but decided otherwise and let the rabbit stay in ‘his’ room for tonight. Carefully he slipped into the bed not knowing if Shishido preferred one side of the bed or if it didn’t matter where he was sleeping.
Shishido smiled a thanks and changed into the pants. He threw his clothes into a pile by the door and turned off the light before crawling into the bed beside Choutarou. He didn’t have a preference about what side of the bed he slept on, not that it would make much difference. He curled into his boyfriend’s side when he was under the covers and smiled. “Warm,” he said.
This made the taller boy chuckle slightly and he lay his arms around the other to pull him even closer. “good night Shishido-san”, he whispered fondly and breathed a kiss on his forehead before closing his eyes.
“Night, Choutarou,” Shishido kissed at the other’s chin softly before resting his head against the other’s shoulder, closing his own eyes as well.
What: Shishido finally understands his feelings
Where: their appartment
When: Jan 5th
Rating: PG.... 13?
Choutarou made sure that his scarf hid a good portion of his face when he finally stood in front of Shishido’s house. He didn’t want him to see it right away. The slap his father had given him on new years eve had left behind a nice dark bruise on his cheekbone. There was no way that Shishido wouldn’t see it some time, but he didn’t want him to see it immediately. Slowly he opened the door and put his bag down while he opened his Coat. “Tadaima~”, He called into the house and soon after heard the patter of Kaji’s paws as he ran to him to greet his second master. “Yeah, good boy. Did Shishido-san feet you well while I was gone?”, He asked the dog and scratched him behind his ears.
The dog reveled in the long missed attention, trying to get as much of it as he could before his other master could realize that Choutarou was back. He rolled over onto his stomach, legs in the air, and enjoyed the tummy rub with a fast wagging of his tail.
Shishido wasn’t far behind, though and he smiled at the sight of Choutarou. He didn’t approach him immediately, waiting until Kaji had moved out of the way before he finally stepped forward. His steps closer were a little slow. He breathed in slowly before grabbing a hold of the other’s scarf and tugging him down a bit. He just stared into Choutarou’s eyes for a long moment before taking a deep breath in, shifting Choutarou’s scarf and closing the distance between them, lips meeting lips.
Choutarou almost wanted to pull Shishido’s hand away when he reached for his scarf but something in Shishido’s eyes kept him from doing it and instead he just stood there confused what was wrong with Shishido. But then, as Shishido pulled the scarf back and came closer just to lay his lips upon Choutarou’s, the taller boy didn’t know what to think anymore. Why... why did Shishido kiss him? He had thought that he still loved Kamakari. Or was he just a replacement? After almost returning the kiss Choutarou finally came back to live and pushed Shishido away. “Why....?”, was the only thing he could ask with a shaky voice that showed more of his vulnerability than he’d wanted.
As he was pushed away, Shishido flinched and he let his hands drop to his side. His gaze fell to concentrate on his feet as he stepped back a couple steps to give Choutarou more space. “I said... I was thinking about things,” he said quietly, not daring to look up at him. “About you... how you felt about me... and... how I felt about you...”
Choutarou was scared as he heard that. He almost wanted to run. It was one thing to tell Shishido that he loved him but to be just seconds away from an answer to his unspoken question was almost too much for him right now. “You know how I feel about you”, he whispered staring to the side and clenched his fists so he wouldn’t run.
“I know,” Shishido nodded, his own hands slowly curling into fists at his sides. He had never been good with this sort thing. With feelings and admitting them, any sort to anyone. It was just something he found so hard to do, and he couldn’t really figure out why. Except for maybe feelings being ‘girly’ most of the time. “Choutarou, I...” He trailed off before taking a deeper breath and trying again. “I like you... in a different way to Kamakari-san.... better... more"
Choutarou frowned slightly trying to understand what Shishido-san meant. “So you... why did you kiss me?”, he asked still confused.
Shishido didn’t answer for a moment before he finally lifted his gaze and looked straight at him. “I was curious,” he admitted. “I... wanted to see if it was okay... to see if it would help.”
“If it would help? Help with what?”, Choutarou asked upset, didn’t know why he was upset anyway. Shishido had kissed him because he was curious? What reason was that? He knew how Choutarou felt and still he had kissed him because he was curious?
“I can’t ask you out if I’m not sure about what I feel,” Shishido said, forcing some confidence into his voice. “I had to figure if I just wanted to kiss you to see what you’d do because of how you feel... or if I wanted to kiss you because.... I wanted you. I already know I need you around here otherwise me and Kaji wouldn’t survive.”
“Don’t say that. You would survive. You did survive before I was here too”, Choutarou said with a sad face, and couldn’t look at Shishido right now. He didn’t want to think of Shishido dieing. “And.... did you found the answer”, he whispered, afraid of the answer.
Shishido didn’t say anything. He took a step closer after hesitating for a moment and reached a hand forward to lightly grab hold of Choutarou’s scarf. He started at it for a moment. “Choutarou, look at me...”
Slowly Choutarou lifted his head with an almost scared look. He was so afraid of the answer.
The prince took another step closer and took a deep breath. He held his gaze, refusing to look away or back down. “I found an answer...” he said quietly. “Choutarou... will you... um....” He flushed slightly in nervousness and forced himself to just blurt it out. “Choutarou,willyougooutwithme?”
Blink blink. Blink blink. It took Choutarou perhaps half a minute until he really understood what Shishido just had asked him. Then his eyes became wide and his head competed with a tomato. “You..... I ….uh..... ye.....yes, of course...Shishido-san”, he stuttered, not knowing what to say or to think. Shishido had asked him out.
Shishido wasn’t quite sure what he was expecting but he found himself feeling relieved when Choutarou said yes, as if he’d been nervous that been rejected. He gave a grin though at the answer. “Great!”
“Ah...hai”, Choutarou murmured sheepish and scratched the back of his head, not knowing what to do now. Were they really together now? He didn’t know and was to scared to ask.
Still grinning, Shishido pulled Choutarou closer again for another kiss, though this one was slower, more deliberate. He ran a hand up into the younger’s hair slowly.
Again Choutarou was at first too surprised to answer the kiss but then he closed his eyes and slowly leaned into the kiss and lifted his hands up to lay them on Shishido’s back. It felt incredible to be able to hold Shishido like this, finally.
Shishido worried when Choutarou didn’t kiss back but relaxed a moment later when he did. Wrapping his other arm around the other’s neck, the prince tip toed so he could get a better reach. He did eventually pull away, though, and it was with a panted breath that next spoke. “Ch-Choutarou...” He pressed a hand softly to the other’s cheek. “What happened?”
Choutarou could have continued to kiss Shishido for hours but eventually Shishido ended the kiss and then Choutarou felt his hand on his cheek and winced slightly as it brushed over the bruise. “I did what you told me. I just thought of me for once. I told my parents that I already have somebody I love and that I won’t marry the girl they picked for me. As Father heard that I love a man he slapped me”, Choutarou said, knew that Shishido wouldn’t stop until he knew what happened. But he wouldn’t tell him that his Parents didn’t want to see him until he’d give Shishido up. He didn’t need to know that.
A frown pulled at Shishido’s lips as Choutarou spoke, his eyes hardening. “Who the fuck does he think he is?” He growled quietly and pulled Choutarou close. “He has no right to do that to you. I don’t care if he’s your dad. You’re old enough to make your own choices without needing his permission.”
Choutarou let himself pulled in and rested his forehead on Shishido’s shoulder while his arms wrapped around Shishido’s back. He didn’t want to see the look in his loves eyes. It hurt him.
“He is very religious. He thinks it’s a sin.....”, he murmured.
Shishido rested the side of his against Choutarou’s and closed his eyes. “Do you think it’s a sin?” he asked quietly, his hands rubbing the other’s back slowly.
Slowly he shook his head. “How could anything that makes me play beautiful music be a sin?”, he asked back. No he didn’t thought that it was wrong to love Shishido.
“Then forget about it,” Shishido said quietly and turned his head to kiss Choutarou’s temple. “He has no right to force his beliefs on you, even if he is your father.”
“But they are my family”, Choutarou sighed and tightened the hug. He didn’t want to think of it right now.
“... I know,” Shishido sighed and closed his eyes, squeezing his arms around Choutarou tightly. “Come on,” he said quietly, pulling away slowly and taking one of the younger’s hands. “Come lie down.”
“Eh? Lie down? But.. I just came back. I have to unpack and have to make something for dinner.” Choutarou said quickly, hadn’t even slipped out of his shoes yet.
Shishido shook his head slowly. “Unpack later,” he said. “And we can just order takeout. I just wanna lie down with you for a bit.”
Choutarou sighed slightly and nodded. “But let me take off my shoes and the coat at least”. he said and took off his coat and shoes. “Now we can lie down if you want”, he said with a gentle smile, and took Shishido’s hand.
Shishido gave him a smile and led him towards the bedroom. He sat down on the edge of the bed then lay back down, tugging Choutarou’s arm to get him to lie down beside him.
Choutarou looked at Shishido for a moment before he finally lay down beside him, laying on the side and still looking at Shishido. His brain still tried to understand what had happened. Shishido had asked him out. He just couldn’t believe it.
The prince watched him quietly for a moment before smiling slightly and shifting closer to him. He curled into Choutarou’s chest and closed his eyes, one hand draping over the larger boy’s side.
Gently Choutaro lay an arm over Shishido’s side and pulled him even a bit closer, breathing a kiss on his head. He was happy, now in this moment he was really really happy. To be with the one he loved was something fortunate.
Shishido leaned his head back a little to press a kiss to Choutarou’s chin before tucking his head under his chin. “I missed you, Choutarou,” he murmured quietly against his chest.
Choutarou smiled slightly as he felt the kiss and rubbed his cheek slightly against Shishido’s head. “I missed you too Shishido’san”, He whispered.
“You’re... not planning on disappearing again anytime soon, are you?” Shishido asked him quietly, one hand gripping onto Choutarou’s shirt. He hated admitting it, but he didn’t like being alone. He had been alone before by choice after cutting as many ties as he could from his family, but then Choutarou had showed up and Shishido had gotten used to having him around and when Choutarou wasn’t there, he was reminded about how much he hated being alone.
Choutarou was a bit surprised at that question but smiled again. “No Shishido-san I won’t go away again. If it would be up to me I’d stay here forever”, he assured the other and gently rubbed his back.
Shishido smiled slightly at that and relaxed against him. “Then stay forever.”
“If you let me, then I will”, Choutarou said finally closing his eyes.
“I’ll let you,” Shishido murmured with a slow exhale. “I’ll always let you.”
Again Choutarou kissed the top of Shishido's head. “Then I’ll always stay with you”, he said happy and probably could stay like this forever, if he wouldn’t feel hungry slowly. But he didn’t want to break the nice atmosphere.
Shishido smiled and stayed quiet, taking a moment to just enjoy having Choutarou back again. He hadn’t been gone for that long, but Shishido had missed him a lot all the same.
The moment didn’t last long, though, disturbed by a whimper from beside the bed. Kaji had been waiting patiently but he was hungry and he wanted food. Now.
Choutarou sighed slightly as he heard the whimper. He’d loved to ignore it right now, but he couldn’t do that. He lifted Shishido’s head up and gave him one last kiss before he sat up again and looked at Kaji. “What is it boy, hm? Hungry?”, he asked with a gentle smile.
Shishido pouted a little at the whimper and the fact that Choutarou had actually responded to it. He’d been liking the closeness. Stupid Kaji ruining it... Except Kaji did need to be fed, and they did eventually as well, so it was probably a good idea he disturbed them, otherwise Shishido was pretty sure he was going to fall asleep.
Choutarou petted Kaji before he looked back at Shishido and saw the small pout. Instantly he leaned towards Shishido and gave him another kiss. “We have all night after all”, he smiled witt a wink. “So should I make something or do you still want takeout?”
“... Whichever you want,” Shishido said. He had missed Choutarou’s cooking, but if Choutarou didn’t want to cook then he was fine with getting them both take out again. “Do you feel like cooking?”
“Do we have enough things to cook something?”, Choutarou asked with a grin, wondering if Shishido had done the shopping.
Shishido shrugged. “You’ll have to check the cupboards,” he said, running his hand through his hair. “I haven’t been shopping.”
Choutarou sighed. “Let’s just order something and I’ll see what we have to buy tomorrow okay?”, he asked and would rather snuggle up against Shishido again.
“Sounds like a plan,” Shishido nodded. Takeout meant he got more time to lie down with Choutarou, especially if they got it delivered.
“Okay, you order something and I’ll give Kaji his food. I think he needs it more badly than we do”, he said with a smile and, for the first time, ran his fingers through Shishido’s hair, at least for the first time that Shishido would notice it. It felt nice, almost better now that he was allowed to do it.
Shishido nodded and dug in his pocket for his cell phone. The hand in his hair made him pause for a moment and he closed his eyes to lean up into it with a small smile. “Anything in particular you want?” he asked slowly.
“u~un”, Choutarou shook his head with a slight smile. “I’m okay with anything. I’ll take what you take”, he shrugged and continued to run his fingers through Shishido’s hair before he leaned forward and kissed a strand. “You know... I was really sad when I heard that you had cut your hair. Strange isn’t it? I mean, we didn’t know each other, and I always just watched you from far but I was still sad”, he admitted with a slight chuckle and shook his head.
“... I was sad as well,” Shishido said slowly, cracking an eye open just enough to see him. “Which is why I decided to grow it out again. I miss having hair that long.” It had taken him at least a year to get used to the lack of weight on his head. He knew there were some who weren’t sad at his loss, though. Girls who had been jealous that a guy like him had hair better than theirs.
“So you want to let it grow back to it’s original length?”, Choutarou asked curious and also very happy. He’d loved to see Shishido with his really long hair again. Somehow he seemed to be addicted to long hair.
Shishido nodded and gave a smile. “Yeah,” he said, running a hand through it. “It’ll take a while though. It took almost eight years to grow it out that length.” He hated his hair for the way that it took a year to reach the length it was now, just past his shoulders, but from then it seemed to grow only a couple inches a year.
Choutarou just smiled and gave Shishido another kiss. “I’d love you even if you were bald”, he said chuckling. “And didn’t you want to order something to eat?”, he then reminded his boyfriend before he finally stood up. “Come Kaji. Time to eat for you”, he smiled at the dog.
“I’d die if I was bald,” Shishido pouted, a hand protectively holding his hair. “And yes, I was. Pizza sound good?” It was cheap and delivered and he was pretty sure there was at least a couple beers in the fridge to go with it.
That made Choutarou laugh. “Pizza sounds perfect”, he nodded before he left the room to give Kaji his food. Scratching the dog behind his ears he looked for a can of dog food. “God Kaji.... I’m so happy I think I could die right now”, he just said with an angelic smile on his face.
Shishido nodded and hit one of his speed dial numbers. Most of the speeddial numbers were fast food places that delivered, because the fast food was the easiest meal when he was busy with disciplinary committee stuff. Or for when Choutarou wasn’t around. He lay down on his bed as he placed the order then closed his phone, staring up at the ceiling with a wide smile.
After Choutarou had fed Kaji and went back to Shishido’s bedroom he stopped in the doorway for a moment, just watching his love lying on the bed. he had watched Shishido sleep some times as he still had slept in the same room but it was different now. He didn’t have to wish for Shishido to understand his feelings anymore. He didn’t watched him with the feeling of yearning but with the knowledge that this man was his boyfriend now... or at least they were dating. If Shishido really thought of him as his boyfriend now?
It took Shishido a long moment to realize that Choutarou was standing in the doorway. When he did, he blinked before smiling at him a moment later. He shifted over, shoving his phone under his pillow, and patted the space beside him without a word. He had a strange urge to just keep the other as close to he could for as long as he could. He wasn’t sure why.
With a loving smile Choutarou stepped closer again sitting down on the bed without letting his eyes leave Shishido for even a second. “You’re beautiful”, he whispered before he leaned forward to breath a kiss on Shishido’s lips.
Shishido smiled at that and brushed his lips over Choutarou’s. “So are you,” he murmured against his lips before reaching up to tug him to lie down beside him. He rolled onto his side and shifted a little closer to him. “Pizza should be here in about twenty minutes.”
Choutarou chuckled slightly as he lay down beside Shishido to run his fingers once again through the dark brown hair. “Plenty of time then”, he smiled before he leaned forward again to claim the other’s lips.
The prince hummed an agreement against Choutarou’s lips and lifted his arms to wrap them around the other’s neck. He shifted closer to him, pressing as close against him as he could.
Choutarou didn’t mind either the arms around his neck nor the fact that Shishido pressed closer against him. He loved to hold the other like this, he loved to kiss him, he just loved everything about him.
Shishido was a little surprised to find himself becoming so quickly addicted to kissing this guy. The faint taste of Choutarou left on his lips after each kiss just made him want more. He had been worried when he had been thinking, that if anything did happen between him and Choutarou that he might be distracted by thoughts of his old mentor but something about the younger boy made it hard to think of anything except Choutarou. And Shishido didn’t mind it one bit.
If Choutarou’d get a minute to really think about everything he might wonder about what Shishido still felt about Kamakari-sama, but right now that didn’t matter. Shishido was here with him, kissing him, and not away to fool around with his old mentor, that was everything he needed to know right now to be happy.
After a moment, Shishido broke the kiss so he could just rest his forehead against Choutarou’s and stare into his eyes for a moment. “You can stay here tonight if you want,” he murmured.
This made Choutarou blush a bit. He still didn’t seem to fully understand what happened. If Shishido hadn’t said that right now he would have gone to his room as always, dreaming of his boyfriend but... they lived together. “If you want that... sure”, he smiled slightly.
Shishido gave a slow nod. “I liked it better when you were sleeping in here,” he admitted quietly, but didn’t look away from Choutarou’s eyes. “And you can feel less awkward since... you’re my boyfriend now.”
“Yeah for about, what, an hour?”, Choutarou chuckled but was extremely happy as he heard that Shishido called him his boyfriend. “But sure. I can sleep here today”, he smiled and gave Shishido another kiss. He just couldn’t get enough of it. “But why did you like it better back then?”, he then asked curious.
Shishido was quiet for a moment and he glanced away. “I liked the company,” he murmured. “I’ve lived alone for a while now so having the company... It was nice. And I know Kaji liked having you in here as well.”
“I liked it too”, Choutarou admitted. He had mainly wanted his own room back then because he didn’t want to accidentally blow his feelings for Shishido. Back then he didn’t want him to find out and an own room seemed him to be the safest method.
“Then stay in here,” Shishido said slowly, looking back at him. “I mean... you don’t have to stay every night so we can leave your room how it is if you want your own space or something.”
Choutarou nodded with a loving smile. “Okay. We’ll do it like that”, he said and again ran his fingers through his friends hair. “I don’t know why but I just can’t get enough of that feeling”, he chuckled slightly.
Shishido smiled and leaned up into the hand. “Don’t stop,” he murmured, closing his eyes. He loved the feeling and it felt so much nicer knowing it wasn’t his own hand in his hair anymore.
“I won’t”, the taller boy smiled and continued to caress the prince. “At least not until our pizza arrives”, he chuckled.
“Pizza over me, huh?” Shishido asked with a soft chuckle before breathing out slow and relaxing against the hand in his hair.
“No, never. Rather pizza with you but for that we’ll need the pizza”, Choutarou explained smiling.
Shishido nodded. “Kaji might try and steal some,” he said. “Unless he’s gone to lie on your bed or something.” The dog wasn’t in the room at the moment, still eating, probably, or lying down somewhere else.
“Yeah he’ll probably will. It’s because you spoil him too much”, Choutarou said with a gentle smile. “Just as you spoil me.”
“There is nothing wrong with spoiling him,” Shishido pouted, opening an eye. “And there’s nothing wrong with spoiling you, either.”
“I didn’t say that it is wrong as long as he knows what he is allowed to do and what not”, Choutarou said smiling and gave Shishido a kiss on the cheek while he continued to play with his hair.
Shishido shrugged and closed his eye again. “He knows what he can and can’t do,” he said. “There’s just... little that he can’t do.”
“And me?”, Choutarou asked curious. Lying here with Shishido so close felt so incredibly good and Choutarou wondered if he’d ever feel the urge to go back to his own room if he could have this instead.
“I don’t think you need me telling you what you can and can’t do, Choutarou,” Shshido said quietly. “You should know what you’re allowed to do. And you can always ask if you aren’t sure.”
“Alright. I’ll ask if I’m not sure”, Choutarou smiled happy. Thought he was a lot more confident around Shishido and the other DC members he was still insecure now and then about certain things.
Shishido just hummed softly and leaned into him. It was warm and being able to be so close to Choutarou made him feel a little fuzzy. He wasn’t sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing but he didn’t mind it. He wondered if this was what Kaji felt like when he got to snuggle him.
The taller boy chuckled slightly at the sight and placed a kiss on Shishido’s forehead. He just wanted to say something when they heard the doorbell. “I think that’s the pizza. How about we’ll eat in the living room on the couch. Watching a movie, with beer and pizza sounds okay doesn’t it?”, he said with a gentle smile as he slowly got up to get the pizza.
Shishido didn’t really want to move but he gave a nod in agreement. It sounded like a damn good idea. “What movie?” he asked as he moved as well, passing Choutarou his wallet to pay for the pizza before going to the kitchen to get the beer out of the fridge.
“Just pick one”, Choutarou just shrugged and took the wallet and went to the front door to take the pizza and then pay the boy with a beaming smile that made the boy blush pretty. After he came back into the living room Shishido was already there with the beer. And Kaji as well. He probably had smelled the pizza.
“Star Wars!” Shishido declared with a grin, pulling the DVD for the first movie out of his collection and put it into the player before settling down on the couch. “Mmm, that smells so good~!”
“Hm? That will be interesting..... I never watched them”, Choutarou admitted with a slight smile and sat down on the couch too, putting an arm around Shishido and pulling him in so he could lean slightly against Choutarou while both would still be able to eat. “What is it about again? I know that it’s something SF...and that there is some force or something like that.”
Shishido leaned against him and picked up a slice of pizza before starting off a long tirade about just what the movies were all about and who the characters were and how much better the original trilogy was compared to the latest trilogy. The tirade managed to last the entire opening credits before finally taking a bite of his pizza.
Choutarou listened carefully and even if it was just to hear Shishido’s voice. The film sounded interesting. And Shishido seemed to really love that trilogy. He knew so much about it. Silently he started to eat his own pizza as they watched the film.
Shishido didn’t say anything the whole duration of the movie, except for the occasional shout at the movie to tell the characters how stupid they are. Most of the time, he was busy eating pizza or sipping at his beer. He had never watched Star Wars with someone other than his brother, so actually having someone to watch it with made it even better.
Every now and then when Shishido yelled at the poor characters again Choutarou chuckled silently and placed a kiss on the other’s hair. Shishido was really into the film. So he just ate his pizza and drank his beer in silence and watched Shishido more than the film.
The little kiss didn’t go unnoticed and he glanced up at Choutarou for a brief moment afterwards before kissing his chin and returning his attention to the movie, snuggling a little closer to him.
It made Choutarou chuckle slightly and he leaned his head against Shishido’s before he looked back at the TV.
Shishido’s attention remained glued to the movie for the rest of the time it played, punctuated with telling the characters off some more, both clearly and around mouthfuls of pizza. When it finally finished and the credits started to roll, the smaller man leaned his head back to look up at Choutarou with a grin. “Well?” He asked expectantly. “What do you think?”
Choutarou didn’t really know if he should look at the movie or at Shishido, though Shishido was more tempting. Watching him losing himself in that movie was something fascinating, but eventually the Movie caught Choutarou himself and he decided to watch the film. He could watch Shishido the entire night if he wanted. So he returned to eating his pizza and listening to his boyfriend. Though eventually the movie ended and Shishido asked him what he thought. “Hm... it is interesting. I’m not much into science fiction but I have to say that it really caught me and I wonder what will happen in the other movies.”
“Well, we can always watch the other two,” Shishido suggested, making himself comfortable against Choutarou. The pizza was almost completely gone. “Unless you have to be up early tomorrow...”
Well he had to be up early tomorrow, but Shishido seemed to really love these films so he slightly shook his head. “No I don’t have to. So if you want we can watch them”, he smiled gently and breathed a kiss on Shishido’s hair.
Shishido grinned at Choutarou’s agreement and he jumped at his feet. A minute later, he was returning to his seat, having changed the DVD for the next move. “No one else watches with me,” he pouted.
A little chuckle escaped Choutarou as he heard that. “How can they?”, he asked playfully shocked and pulled Shishido in his embrace. Now that his pizza was gone he had more rook for his boyfriend.
“Because they’re weird,” Shishido complained, leaning all his weight into Choutarou and shifting one arm on top of his boyfriend’s arm. “Star Wars is just too awesome for them to handle.”
“I’m sure it is”, Choutarou chuckled and leaned his head on Shishido’s shoulder. It felt so nice to sit here with his love in his arms that he probably could sit here for ages.
Shishido didn’t move at all during the second movie, except occasionally to readjust his position to get a little bit more comfortable. By the end of the movie, though, he was having trouble staying awake after getting so comfortable.
“Hm....?”, Choutarou tilted his head slightly to look at Shishido. “Ne.. why don’t we watch the last part tomorrow evening and go to bed now? You seem tired Shishido-san”, he said with a gentle smile and ran his fingers through his senpai’s hair.
Shishido stifled a yawn and glanced up at him. “Mmm... okay,” he said and slowly sat up properly. He finished off the last of his beer and stood up, stretching his arms over his head.
Choutarou nodded with a gentle smile before he stood up and collected the pizza boxes to quickly bring them in the kitchen before he went back to Shishido and just embraced him gently. “Then.... lets go to bed...”, he almost whispered and breathed a kiss on his friends cheek.
“Yeah, bedtime,” Shishido agreed and grabbed Choutarou’s hand. Gently tugging at it, he led the younger man to his room, Kaji following along behind them. Once he reached the room, he pulled his shirt off over his head and began searching around for a pair of the lounge pants he normally slept in.
“Shishido-san”, the taller boy chuckled and held out the pair of pants Shishido was probably looking for, “here.” After the other had taken the pants, Choutarou himself started to undress before he put on his pajama. For a moment he was thinking if he should get Aki, but decided otherwise and let the rabbit stay in ‘his’ room for tonight. Carefully he slipped into the bed not knowing if Shishido preferred one side of the bed or if it didn’t matter where he was sleeping.
Shishido smiled a thanks and changed into the pants. He threw his clothes into a pile by the door and turned off the light before crawling into the bed beside Choutarou. He didn’t have a preference about what side of the bed he slept on, not that it would make much difference. He curled into his boyfriend’s side when he was under the covers and smiled. “Warm,” he said.
This made the taller boy chuckle slightly and he lay his arms around the other to pull him even closer. “good night Shishido-san”, he whispered fondly and breathed a kiss on his forehead before closing his eyes.
“Night, Choutarou,” Shishido kissed at the other’s chin softly before resting his head against the other’s shoulder, closing his own eyes as well.
