Work Text:
A clever eyed boy pulls out his wallet
Thanking the girl as he pays her.
She looks pleased, a bit disinterested
And that works well enough for him
Because the boy with clever eyes needs an alibi
For he’s doing something utterly forbidden.
This girl is nothing but his cover,
A fake relationship to hide his real one.
He tells his father he’s going on a date
(He never specified with whom)
But instead of meeting with the girl,
He meets the boy with the sharp smile
The boy with the sharp smile hugs him close
And the clever eyed boy hugs back
He’s a bit teary eyed for he’s about to do
Something that is going to hurt them both
“We can’t do this anymore.” The clever eyed boy whispers.
Eyes widened, the sharp-smiled boy demands why.
But the answer is written across his face
The subtle fear in his eyes.
“I promise no matter what,
I’ll be here by your side
And if someone catches us
We can run away and hide.”
The sharp-smiled boy smiles his soft smile
Incisors poking out.
As he reassures his lover
That everything will be alright
The clever eyed boy rubs his eyes
And tries to hide the way he’s cried
As he wipes away the last tear
He gets rid of the last fears
Fingers intwined under the table,
The two boys carry on and live their life.
And they hope one day, society will change
So they can finally be together in public.
