Cold
by woolpepper
The sun had completely fallen from the sky by the time Kanjani8's rehearsals were finished. Subaru Shibutani took notice of the dimlight brightness of the moon as he made himself comfortable on the chair next to his bed. It was only 8 0' clock in the evening, yet his roommate, Maruyama Ryuhei, was already fast asleep. 'He's an impulsive guy', Subaru once told himself. Maruyama was the type of person who'd do a thing just because he felt like doing it, without even thinking of the consequences of his actions. There are times when he'd regret over a thing then forget the whole issue after awhile. What a very random guy indeed.
They were not close, Subaru and Maruyama. However, they goofed around with each other or say witty things to each other most of the times. Subaru admired how Maruyama does not fail to make people happy and how he sees life in an optimistic view. And how cool he happens to be whenever he bites his lips when he feels the excitement rush through his veins during performances.
Subaru simply admired Maruyama.
Time flew by and Kanjani8 was up to their last night in the hotel where they were staying. The concert is finished, at long last.
"We shall drink together for our success!" Yoko gleefully shouted, waving his hands in the air. The remaining six agreed to him and decided to go to a nearby pub. It was full of people yet they managed to squeeze theirselves to the center of the pub. Hina ordered all of them beers and sat near Yoko. They talked about their occupations, the juniors, the things they recently bought, anything under the sun. It was very entertaining. So very entertaining indeed that they couldn't count how many bottles of beer they drank. Every one of them was drunk, except for Tacchon and Maru who didn't drink a lot.
Subaru suddenly stood up from his seat and took off his pants, revealing a very bright polka dots boxers. He slyly grinned and walked to the nearest wall, careful not to trip on his own pants. Maru and Tacchon were troubled: What is Subaru thinking?! The next thing they knew Subaru was already excreting urine in the wall. Maru jumped from his seat and stopped Subaru. Subaru got angry and tried to push him away, but Maru pulled Subaru's boxers up and escorted him to the men's room.
"Ah refreshing!" Subaru managed to say as he saw Maru continuously washing his hand on the sink.
Tacchon ended up escorting Yassu, Ryo and Yoko, while Maru was assigned to escort Shingo and Subaru. Tacchon and Maru paid for the drinks and drove their co-members back to the hotel. As soon as Maru laid Shingo on his bed, he helped Subaru walk towards their room. Subaru dropped dead on the bed and yawned. Maru took Subaru's jacket and shoes off.
'Subaru Shibutani is beautiful...when he is asleep.'
Limiting the term 'beautiful' to 'asleep' makes Maru in touch with the reality that however beautiful Subaru is, it's just that. He can't do anything more than be mesmerized to the slightly bizarre beauty of Subaru. Maruyama liked how Subaru's eyes glistened magnificently when he talks to people and how he greets a day with a smile. How his voice reminded Maru of Japanese traditional songs. How every time Subaru sang, Maru can felt his feelings on the song. How Subaru's face expressed a strong-willed personality.
In spite all these, Maru can do nothing, but be mesmerized.
Maru covered Subaru with a blanket and stared at him. Thinking that Subaru was already asleep, Maru touched his face and speculated whether he should tell Subaru his feelings.
'What do I have got to lose? He's drunk!'
"Su-ba-ru! I-like-you!"
Maru playfully recited to Subaru who seemed to smile. He moved Subaru's hair from his face and continued to admire Subaru. He's beautiful in every way.
Maru arranged his self and went to sleep on his own bed. Little did he know, Subaru was half-awaked and heard everything he said. The next morning, Maru woke up with a Subaru snuggling next to him. 'Why was Subaru next to him?' Subaru moved closer to Maru whispering, "I'm cold" in the process. Maru was shocked and thought that he was only daydreaming. He went to the washroom to wash his face and back to the room where he saw a yawning Subaru sitting on his bed. Subaru stretched his arms and grunted loudly. He smiled at Maru.
"OHAYOU!"
Maru, as flabbergasted as before, rubbed his eyes.
"What are you doing on my bed? Why were you snuggling next to me?!"
There was a tint of panic in Maru's tone; a slight tint of demand and panic aroused. All feelings for Subaru suddenly vanished and replaced by the guilty feeling that he might have committed something against the norms of society. Subaru's smile suddenly faded.
Maru didn't feel the same way as he did.
"I thought..."
Subaru got out of bed and kissed Maru in the cheeks. It was a peck, nothing more nothing less. Subaru saw Maru's eyes grow big and concluded that Maru REALLY doesn't feel the same way as he did.
"Never mind..."
Subaru took a shower and felt the cold water prickle his skin. Everything was cold. The water. The weather. Maru. Everything.
'He doesn't feel the same way as me' Subaru continuously told himself like it was a chant needed to easily rape a person. Subaru tried to get Maru off his mind, but to no avail. The feeling of Maru's hand on his cheek was all he ever thought of. Those delicate hands he had always wanted to hold and once thought he could hold. Subaru got out of the bathroom covered with only a towel. He quickly wore his boxers and removed the towel. Taking a quick glance over Maru, Subaru saw that he was nonchalantly twirling his hair while reading a book. 'Maru is cold, too cold.' Subaru wore a denim pants, a white shirt and his red and black striped long sleeves shirt. He took the phone and prepared to order some breakfast, but Yassu suddenly emerged from the door.
"Ohayou!!"
A really big smile was glued on Yassu's face as he brought two plates with 3 layers of heart-shaped pancakes.
"You guys want? Tacchon made pancakes for all of us." Yassu handed the plates to both Maru and Subaru. "Sorry about the heart shape, Tacchon was up all night thinking how to make that heart shape for me"
He grinned at them and waited for them to eat it and tell him what it tasted.
"Tacchon still making you fat?" Maru joked. He took a part of the pancake and tasted it. Delicious. Maru gestured a thumbs up on Yassu and continued eating it.
"Yummy, make Tacchon make more for me?" Maru jokingly pleaded in between large gulps of pancake. Yassu smiled at him and turned to look at Subaru's reaction. Subaru smiled at him and plainly said it was okay. Subaru was somewhat weird and sad and Yassu noticed it. There must be something wrong. The atmosphere in the room was different; both guys were not talking nor looking at each other.
'I must do something!' Yassu said to himself as if he was a child determined to rule the planet.
Yassu nudged at Maru and asked him to go out and talk to him for a second. Maru have him a questioning look but followed Yassu out of the room nevertheless.
"What happened?"
Maru's eyes got big, but Yassu just pouted at him. 10 years of friendship with Yassu tells him that Yassu knows something. Maru sighed and confessed his feelings for Subaru and what Subaru did earlier that day.
Yassu giggled after Maru stop talking. "Subaru likes you"
Maru's eyebrows rose in disbelief. "What do you mean?"
"I mean you should tell him that you like him too" Yassu urged. Maru was shocked. Here is his friend urging him to tell his feelings for another guy when he is supposed to stop him. Maru thought for a minute.
It really isn't about following the norms of society, is it? What about Yassu? Aren’t he and Tacchon in a relationship? It's about being happy, right? Just forget the whole crap of a norm and be happy. It really doesn't matter in the end. What's matter is your happiness, not what others will think.
"But what if you're wrong? How can you tell anyway?!" Maru demanded at Yassu. Yassu shrugged and insisted that he tell Subaru his feelings. Yassu pushed Maru to the room with all his strength.
"YOU TELL "IT" TO SUBARU OR I WILL NOT SPEAK TO YOU EVER!" Yassu whispered to Maru through gritted teeth. He immediately closed the door and tiptoed back to Tacchon and his room.
'Maybe it IS worth a try'
Maru made a heavy sigh and saw Subaru sitting on his bed, staring at the scenery on the window. He was trying to warm his self by rubbing his arms with his hands. Maru slowly creeped from behind and hugged Subaru.
"You really should learn how to use blankets or else I will always hug you when you're cold" Maru silently whispered to Subaru. Subaru's shocked expression turned to a shy smile as he touched Maru's arms.
Everything wasn't so cold anymore.
OK. MY FIRST EVER YAOI FIC. Please tell me what you think. <3 OH AND MANY THANKS TO nekoism and b-gatan FOR PROOF-READING THIS FOR ME.
