Work Text:
An intense heat was brought about by the summer here in the city of Tokyo where Eijun has finally arrived after months of being away from his beloved boyfriend. He excitedly draped his sling bag on his shoulder, eyes blazing wondrously with the feeling of excitement flooding throughout his whole system.
Too long has he dreamt of connecting his hand with him as their touch brought about an electric spark deep inside his chest. For months, Eijun has yearned to feel his fingers grasping his beloved’s messy yet alluring locks along with its fresh scent that has captured his attention. Even though they had always been under the sun for hours in the past, Eijun had always noticed how Kazuya smelled like a man who hasn’t been scorched by the hellish sun.
Eijun lowered his head as he finally took a step on the platform with the intent of hiding the smile that was forming on his face. Just thinking about his name brings quite a shock deep inside the pitcher’s heart, making it race abnormally fast. It only makes him yearn more as his greediness only matches to what his instinct as a pitcher are.
“Oi! Bakamura!” Eijun immediately flips his head upon hearing his voice, tugging dangerously near the strings in his chest. Finally. Eijun thinks to himself as he dashed towards that sound. 'I can finally see him!'
Hearing him through a phone can never compare from the real Miyuki Kazuya, the pretty boy catcher, and the former captain in Seido.
“Miyuki Kazuya!” Eijun glomps Kazuya upon seeing his face, making the catcher tumble from the sudden impact. His arms found its way around Eijun, placing one hand on his back while the other is on Eijun’s head. “I missed you!”
Amidst a crowd, seeing two young boys hugging each other may seem weird to some, disgusted even, but who cares about all that? If there are those that has accepted them, Kazuya could care less. So, he openly welcomes his boyfriend for a hug, giddy and excited from the action he yearned for months of being alone.
Kazuya grins as he places his forehead on Eijun’s. “You missed me?”
“Need I repeat?” Eijun pouts while Kazuya could only raise his eyebrows. “I missed you, you goddamn tanuki!”
The so-called tanuki chuckled, earning him a flustered Sawamura whose face basically turned into a tomato. Eijun couldn’t lie if Kazuya asks him why he became red, because he truly did miss him – crazily.
They were now making their way towards Kazuya’s car in the parking lot near the station. It was a convenient parking spot and Eijun said that he doesn’t mind walking for a few minutes to get there which only made Kazuya feel relieved. He doesn’t want to tire Eijun out after hours of sitting in a train, so he’s glad that his boyfriend is as energetic as ever.
“Is the internship going well?” Kazuya asks him as they were walking outside the train station, hands clasped together and having no intention of letting go.
Eijun proudly puffs his chest out and grinned. “Yeah! Grandpa makes sure that I do my tasks in the company, and even slaps me if I get too sleepy!”
Kazuya once again chuckled. “Harsh as always. I still remember the pain though. How can an old man have a strength of a man who’s in his prime?”
The incident that Kazuya spoke was about the time he asked the Sawamura family to date Eijun. It didn’t come easy, since he’s just a senpai who basically knew Eijun for 2 years, but eventually, they accepted him. Wholeheartedly. Eijun’s grandpa just had to demonstrate the severity of hurting Eijun which basically left him with a red cheek upon returning to Tokyo.
“Miyuki Kazuya are you listening to me?” Eijun suddenly asks Kazuya who clearly seems lost in thought. He lifted his left hand and began pinching Kazuya’s side but successfully failed in his plan of tickling his boyfriend out. “What the- you bulked up!”
Kazuya flinches when Eijun starts to roam his hands around his body, not caring about the consequences he’ll experience later. “Keep doing that or you won’t get a kiss from me.”
That statement alone made Eijun tense up as he swiftly removes his hands away from Kazuya. “Am I not allowed to touch my boyfriend?”
'It’s called being embarrassed, Bakamura!'
However, Kazuya could only shrug his shoulders as an attempt to tease Eijun. Eijun was still complaining right beside Kazuya’s ear, which was becoming annoying, so when Kazuya spotted a convenience story nearby, he quickly grabbed Eijun’s hand and went inside.
“What are we doing here? And don’t you ignore me! Woi, Miyuki Ka-”
“Want some ice cream?”
The catcher grabbed a coned shape ice cream and hands it over to the confused pitcher. His eyebrows were raised, and his mouth slightly opened from the sudden random question he received. Nonetheless, he still took it from Kazuya’s hand which was now getting a second coned ice cream.
Eijun gulped. “Yeah uh, what for?”
Kazuya closed the container and smirked. “To shut you up.”
'But there was another way of shutting me up though.' Eijun thought to himself as he watches his boyfriend walk towards the counter to pay for their dessert.
After a few minutes of waiting, Kazuya finally went back as they finally exit the store. The scorching sun continues to torture them as Eijun couldn’t stall any longer. He ripped the packaging apart and took a bite of that cold and comforting dessert.
“This has rejuvenated me!” Eijun cries out as he happily takes another bite of the said energizer.
“It does cool you off quickly.” Kazuya took their trash and immediately placed it inside the plastic bag. Upon doing so, Eijun held his boyfriend’s ice cream for a few seconds before giving it back.
“And it did shut you up.”
Eijun pouted, while Kazuya noticed his eyes becoming cat eyed. This made the catcher laugh out loud, making Eijun blush in addition.
“You tanuki bastard…” Eijun mumbled to himself as he takes another bite of his dessert.
Kazuya, on the other hand, was licking it instead. Upon noticing their differences, Eijun grinned.
“So that’s how you eat ice cream.” Eijun’s smile only grew as he noticed Kazuya’s ear slightly becoming red. “Why not bite instead?”
“It’s how I grew up.” Kazuya sheepishly said, licking another stripe of melted ice cream. “And it’s hard to eat this when it melts too quickly.”
“Hard, huh…” Unknowingly, Eijun’s gaze slightly darkened, his eyes directly looking at how hot Kazuya is just from eating his ice cream messily.
“Yeah, and it’s annoying as well.” Kazuya gazed back, smirking afterwards when he saw Eijun’s expression.
A drop of melted ice cream made its way to Kazuya’s hand, forcing him to lick it as annoying as it is. However, in Eijun’s perspective, this sudden shift of action only made him yearn for more, making him do something unthinkable and inappropriate.
But they were lovers, this is normal.
Eijun leaned forward and held Kazuya’s hand, slightly surprising him.
“Eijun?”
He couldn’t take it anymore. Eijun dipped his head and decided to lick his boyfriend’s hand, making sure to get all that melted ice cream.
It was sweet and a bit salty, but most of all, after gazing upwards to see his boyfriend’s reaction, it became even more hot than it already is.
“You’re such a messy eater, Miyuki Kazuya!” Eijun grins after pulling away, gazing at his embarrassed boyfriend who doesn’t know how to retort from such an act.
“… You’ve become more bolder than you already are.” Kazuya, even from an embarrassed state, smiles merrily at Eijun.
Eijun’s heart lurched, accepting the fact that he is falling deeper from this sadistic boyfriend of his.
“You can become bold too you know.” Eijun whispers, enough to make sure that Kazuya heard it.
And he did.
Kazuya drew closer, swiping his thumb on Eijun’s lips.
He smiled. “God, I missed you so much.”
When their lips finally collided – sweet, sticky, yet surprisingly warm – Eijun smiled as well.
'I missed you too.'
