The sun hits Mal's eyes from the window, he groaned as the sunlight shone into him endlessly. He gently opened his eyes to see a smaller figure wrapped around his arms, wearing the hoodie he lend Singa. It looks adorably big and comfy around him, as if it will swallow him. He stared at Singa's pretty face, his eyes then travelled to the bite marks and the hickeys he'd given the night before. Flashbacks of that moment made his heart full.
After what felt like a moment, Mal gently unravel his arms and legs away from Singa while making sure he doesn't wake up his beloved. Mal yawned and stood up, the cool air hitting all his senses, he slowly shuffled his way to the bathroom cleaning himself up, brushing his teeth and everything.
He then walked to the kitchen to grab two big mugs and reached for the tin of milo, the piping hot kettle blows out steam and Mal quickly turned it off, pouring the hot water into the chocolate concoction, he carefully walks into Singa's bedroom with two mugs of fresh hot milo in his hand.
Mal placed the mugs on the bedside table and gently climbed on top of the younger. Singa's mouth and eyes quivered and slowly opened as he sees his lover right in his eyes, the best sight to wake up to. He smiled and place his hand on Mal's cheek "Mornin.." Singa murmured out as he adjusts himself to the sunlight. "Nah, Milo for Singa." Singa sits up and takes the mug, he's not used to Mal taking good care of him, he takes a sip of milo and gives his beloved a sweet kiss on the lips. Mal pulled away "Ah Singa you haven't brush your teeth yet!" he giggled.
"Thanks for the kiss though.." Singa nodded and takes another sip.
"Maybe if you brush your teeth you can have all of me~" Mal adds, the words coming out of the man's mouth almost made Singa choke. "Fine fine but what do you plan on doing afterwards? We have no meetings, no work, nothing today." Singa finishes his cup of milo and gets up, he sets the cup down and made his way to the bathroom.
"Well.. I was thinking we can go on a date! just the two of us as lovers. " Mal followed behind and hugs Singa from the back, resting his head on his shoulders. "A.. As lovers?" Singa blushed at the thought of him and Mal being a thing again, he starts brushing his teeth.
"Mhm.. You don't want to make it official? You said you want to start over last night. " Mal nuzzles his head and traced along the bite marks on Singa's neck. Singa spits out the toothpaste and washed his mouth, he turns around to face Mal. "For all these decades of me expressing my hatred for you, I'm sorry.." he looks down as he hooks his arms around Mal's neck. "Aiyooo~ It's okay, it's all in the past now. I still love you." he picks up Singa with ease.
Singa's eyes widened from the sudden gesture. "W.. What are you doing?!" he sees himself being carried all the way to the bedroom.
"Let's prepare for our date!! I want to go eat cendol and window shopping!!" Mal sets Singa on the bed. "Alright alright, anything you want oyen."
The pair finished dressing up and made their way to a big shopping centre, booming with restaurants, cafes, clothing shops and people. After all it's the weekend, couples, families and singles all gathered in one place.
" Ugh... Why did I have to wear a thick turtleneck sweater out..." Singa loathes while Mal tries to fan him out. "You're the one who wants to hide the bite mar- OW ow ow" Mal felt a strong kick on his right knee "Reminding you that YOU are the one who gave it mister!" Singa huffs and quickened his pace as Mal whines in submission. "I'm sorry Singa!!" Mal hurried his steps and wraps his arm around Singa's shoulder.
"I swear you look amazing and hot! Quite literally.. Aiyo I'm so sorry okay~" Singa grins and gives Mal a sweet boop with his finger on his nose "I'm not mad at you gege~" Mal swore his heart skipped twice when he heard Singa called him gege.
The couple had their fun around, eating cendol and sushi, added some clothes into their wishlist and messed around the book store like little kids. The night is dark and still young, like their new found love.
"Singa do you think it's time to go home? Want me to walk you home?" Mal squeezed Singa's hand when no one is watching, walking down the empty and quiet streets, street lamps looming over them and cars driving past them. "Well I'd like you to stay over at my place." Singa childishly swings their linked hands around they both laughed and suddenly, a thunder roared through the clouds.
Rain then soon pour in an instant, "Uh oh..." Mal looks down at Singa and Singa looks back at Mal trying to process what's going to happen to them. "How far away are we from home?" Mal asks with hesitation, afraid of the brutal truth. Singa quickly fumbles his phone, well they're around 3 kilometres away, it isn't necessarily a big walk but the rain made it devilishly longer.
"I guess our perfect date is now ruined..." Singa sighs, droplets turned into a full blown pour "AH!!! RUN!!" Singa covers his head and runs, hoping Mal will follow behind him, after he realised Mal isn't he stopped. "Mal.. What are you doing?! Its pourin-" Singa felt a pair of lips forcing to touch his. Singa closed his eyes and melted to the touch. Teeth clashing and tongue with each other as they're getting soaked. Mal parted the kiss first "It's not ruined when it's with you Singa.." After finishing the sentence a thunder rung through the clouds again.
Mal tightly grips Singa's arms as rain effortlessly poured on them. "I... I just wish we can finally put everything away and fix things back to where it's perfect.." Singa's mouthed quivered and he looked down. He doesn't know if it's the rain or his eyes but he feels very hot and emotional. He felt himself being pulled closer to Mal's warm body "Not every relationship is perfect Singa.. Everyone has their ups and downs, sure we'd argue at some times before but I now learned that... As long as we talk and care for each other, it's not as bad." he gently pats his lover's head, Singa looked up with relief and nodded. "You're right..."
"I just miss my loverman so much, what will I do without you..." Singa tightly embraces Mal as he screamed into the rain to let out all his pent up emotions.
"You alright?" After what seemed like minutes of crying and sniffling under the rain, Singa nodded. "Let's go home okay?"
Mal grabs his loverman's hand tightly and walked their way back home
Halfway through their journey Mal suddenly let go of Singa's hand, Singa being confused witnessed Mal happily twirling around the rain laughing out loud. "We can make this date fun! Come let's dance!" Mal have his hand out for Singa in an inviting manner. "Pf.. Pfft HAHAHA oh gege..." Singa grabs a hold of Mal's hand and the couple started dancing together under the rain, outside their home in the night. Chasing each other around, embracing each other and Mal occasionally picking up Singa around, after what felt like an hour, they finally entered their loving home.
