Chapter Text
Lin was always so gorgeous to Banba. Whether he was laid back in the house, bareface, hair in a ponytail sporting some of Banba’s old hoodies and oversize sweatpants. Or he was prepped up, ready to go out for a night at some fancy restaurant with his favorite red dress and matching lipstick. He seems to shine so brightly that Banba couldn’t help it, it just captured him. It also don’t help that Lin got like the best fucking laugh on the planet, and just the cutest fucking smile, where his eyes just crinkles up in joy. Yeah, so not shit. He loves Lin a whole lot, that much was fucking obvious. He loves the way Lin loves to tease people, how dedicated he is to a joke and never knowing when it got old. He still calls Banba, Banbaka like it was the first time ever. And he still teases Enokida about being a young master. He likes to take pictures because he wants every moment to have it’s own special thing. He loves his home country and culture. He loves so much about Lin he could go on and on.
Banba hugs Lin tighter.
They were curled up on the couch, Lin reading a book. Banba was supposed to be reading with him but he got so caught up in Lin’s warmness and this, this scene. How they ended up here, from having so little to having so much it was almost unbelievable.
“Lin.”
Lin pauses, looking up from his book. Banba looks down at the other man, looking in to his eyes.
“What?”
Banba inhales. “I love you.” He’s breathless.
Lin flushes, his skin turning pink, looking soft under the peach light of his apartment lamp. Still, he doesn’t break eye contact.
“Yeah, I love you too. Banbaka.” He smiles.
Banba leans down and press his lips against Lin’s. Lin opens his mouth, deepening the kiss. Banba’s arms around Lin tighten and slides down to his waist. Lin puts his hands on Banba’s, intertwining them.
Banba pulls apart from Lin. Their skins flushed. Banba presses his lips together, nervous.
“Lin, uh, will you um….marry me?” Banba awkwardly bumbles out.
Lin blinks. “Yeah….”
They stare into each others eyes. Lost, but found in each other.
“Yeah, I will.”
And Banba feels like crying.
