Chapter Text
Two weeks went by since we started dating. We had not exposed our relationship to the others yet, so we did our lover’s actions in secret. Kokichi is a bold person, he is always advancing to new things or trying to develop our intimate relation, it is almost as if he doesn’t have a sense inside him of “when to stop”, so I had to be that meter. On the other hand, I took things smoothly and though he seemed impatient, he didn’t seem to dislike my slow developments. I feel free now to stare at him shamelessly, and it seems like he feels free to touch me. I think that even if we have separate ideas of how a relationship should be, we are being able to take things on the right way.
It is afternoon now, and the purple haired boy and I were in my room reading some mangas he brought over. He suddenly felt hungry so I went to the kitchen to make us something to eat. Yeah, I will try to make something, I am sure I can cook at least on the average. I made some tea and sandwiches –okay, it is not the best combination, I admit- for us and went back to my room. On the way, I found Kaede getting out of her dorm holding some papers. Our gazes crossed.
“Hey, Shuichi! Bringing food to your boyfriend?”
“Ah, y-yeah…”
“Oh, I’m sorry! I forgot to do not say things in public! Anyways, I hope you have a great time! Bye!”
“Bye Kaede.”
Yeah, I forgot I told her. The day after I confessed I told a resume about what happened and truly thanked her for her advice. She seemed happy to have been of help and congratulated me. I didn’t really feel ashamed when telling her because we are very close, but when it comes the time to tell the others it will be quite difficult…
I entered my room. Kokichi was half laid on the bed, belly up, lower body on the bed, but upper body turned towards the floor and head almost touching it. I put the plate on my desk.
“Eehh, did you make these too?” Ouma asked.
“Yeah.”
“They smell good. And the tea too~”
I smiled at him. He sat up on the bed. Taking one of the sandwiches with the napkin, I extended it towards his mouth. He opened it and with a cute “aaahhh” sound, took a bite of it. Aaaahhhh, he sure is cute. I get to see new sides of him, it totally fills me up~ I fed him with the rest of the sandwich while staring at all those cute expressions he made while eating.
“Shuichi *munch munch* yu most riilly like *munch munch* mi to feed me every day.”
“Ah, yes, I definitely like you,” I answered without thinking, a smile on my face. As I realized what I had just said I panicked in embarrassment, blushing. Kokichi giggled.
“Hhmm…”
“Ah, here is your tea,” I gave his drink to him, and meanwhile noticed his hair had… some tangles? “Hey, Kokichi…”
“What is it, love?” Wo-Wow… “love”… how heartwarming.
“Hm… can I comb your hair…?”
“No. Of course not!”
“Hmm… is that a yes…?”
“No.”
“Oh, I understand.” I got a comb from my closet then sat behind Kokichi, with my legs crossed. Then, slowly, I starting moving the object through his hair, but it got stuck right away. “Hm… Do you… comb your hair frequently…?”
“Of course I do! What an insult!” So he doesn’t do it.
“Perhaps… do you just fix it with your own fingers and that is it…? Yes, you do that.”
“Aaww, you caught me! Well, you are the Ultimate Detective.”
He put the cup he was holding on the desk, came back and sat on my lap. Why… does he like to do that?
“Kokichi… is my lap more comfortable than the bed?” I averted my gaze.
“Sure yes!”
“…” I sighed. It’s not like he can’t do it… or that I don’t like it…
“Hey,” he called me.
“What is it?”
“Aren’t you going to eat?” He turned around.
“… Ah, I forgot… I wanted to take care of you fir-”
“Well, it is not like I care anyway!” He pressed our lips together. I closed my eyes. It was smooth and calm. When we separated, I looked at him for a moment before we deepened the kiss. Our tongues swirled around each other in a passionate motion. I searched around every area of his mouth, from his tongue to his teeth, and I could feel the sweet flavor from the tea he had just drunk. When we could not hold our breaths anymore, we separated, and instantly inhaled, and exhaled trying to catch out breaths. Ouma rested his chin on my left shoulder.
“Hey Shuichi…~” He whispered. “I want to see your naked body…~”
“Kokichi… I already told you, it is too soon to do things like that…”
“No, I just want to stare at you really. And that is the truth. Don’t you do that all the time with me?”
“… Or this could be a lie,” I completed.
“Nishishi! You know me so well~”
“Although I am ashamed to do that… if it is just the upper body I have no problems with it…”
“Alright! Yaay!” He grinned from ear to ear.
Ouma fastened his fingers to unbutton my jacket, then my shirt underneath and removed it in a quick movement. He stared at me. His look… is so passionate right now… I feel… proud…?
“Aaahhh, you are too handsome!” I saw a faint blush on his cheeks. “Shuichi, did you want your boyfriend to have a heart attack?!”
“Kokichi, did you want your boyfriend to have a heart attack too, but from embarrassment?!” I mimicked him.
“Eehh, how boring, don’t mimic me.” I giggled.
He extended his hands towards my face. I closed my eyes on reflex, but I just felt my bangs being put aside.
“… You are handsome in both face and body… Lucky me! Nishishi!”
“… Am I… really handsome? Aren’t you lying…?”
“Yeah, I am lying.”
“… When you say it like that I can’t discern truth from lie…”
“Nishishi! That is the point!... I find you more cute than handsome though.”
“Thank you? I also find that.”
“Oh, so I am handsome to you?” He giggled. “I thought you only found me cute.”
“Of course. It hurts my pride to say this but… you are manlier than I am myself,” I averted my gaze.
“I know that, nishishi!”
We stayed silent simply leaning against each other for some moments.
“Hey, Shuichi,” Ouma called, “Kaede likes you, y’know?”
“… What?” I looked down to see his face. “Ah, you mean about that day? When we were having ice creams?”
“… She told me some pretty disgusting things,” he growled.
I could not contain my laughs. Ouma looked at me as if I was crazy and then pouted, asking why I was laughing. “Kokichi, I guess Kaede is a pretty good liar if she got you believing her.”
“What does that mean?” His tone was aggressive. “Are you saying she was lying?!”
“Well, yeah. She was helping me find out if you really liked me at the time.”
“… Hahahahahahahahahahah!” Now it was my time to look at him weirded out.
“Why are you laughing?” I asked curiously.
“Shuichi… Don’t you think that it is more reliable to believe she was actually telling the truth since I couldn’t detect any lies in her statements?”
I went silent. Oh my, I didn’t even think of that….!
“…Are you sure you just don’t want to admit she might have bested you?”
“No way!” He said assured. “But she is not a problem anymore~ You know, since our hearts are for each other~” He gave a peck on my lips.
I blushed, and narrowed my eyes in embarrassment before telling him “Y-Yeah.”
