Work Text:
Apart from schools, cafes, and bookstores, the airport became his most frequented destination after he went abroad. Thinking about it carefully, he was not alone in most situations. Oftentimes he would be sending off or picking up someone and was also accompanied when returning to the Starmony Dorm on the other side of the world.
Today's flight arrived early, so he came half an hour earlier. According to the schedule, Shu only had to wait ten minutes to see Mika appearing at the exit. He smiled softly as he thought of this, standing farther away from the pick-up crowd. He was confident that Kagehira could find him, and so could he.
The airport broadcast announced the arrival, and Shu opened his eyes and turned his attention to the new wave of passengers. He had picked up relatives, classmates, and friends here, holding some expectations most of the time. Yet no one could bring him peace of mind like this young man trotting over at a brisk pace, which flowed from his veins to the atrium every time he felt Mika's warmth.
What else can you expect for happiness and love!
Mika lifted his sunglasses, setting himself up for a handsome smile at his Oshi-san. Shu showed no expression, took Mika’s backpack in his hand, and turned to leave. Mika had to drag the suitcase and hurried to catch up: "Nnah~ wait for me, Oshi-san~."
"Stay close, or I won’t look for you if you’re lost."
"Heh heh, I already know the way from the airport to Oshi-san's home and college."
As noisy as always... Every time Shu sees him, Kagehira has endless things to say. I haven't seen Oshi-san for two months. I missed you so much. Did Oshi-san eat well? I think Oshi-san is thinner than the last time we met. Can Oshi-san go to see an exhibition with him the other day...... The taxi driver smiled and said to Shu: "Your lover is really energetic and cute."
"...Sometimes annoying, but true."
No matter how many times he came, Mika was always filled with excitement. Straightening his habitually cuddled-up body, he showed a much more stretched demeanor than usual, like a broken kite that would fly away any minute.
Mika would appear adorable if he was not humming. Shu decided to neglect Mika, bending over his notebook to re-confirm their to-do list. Mika gradually quieted down, pouting as he moved closer to Shu, watching his actions.
After hopping off the taxi (Mika insisted on saying goodbye to the driver), they greeted the landlady. The landlady warmly welcomed Mika. She has long regarded the two artists as her own children and announced that she would make a feast to celebrate their reunion. Shu had the courtesy to voluntarily offer help, but the landlady flatly rejected: "No, no, you have more important things to do." She looked at Mika, who was carrying their luggage in a well-behaved manner. They hardly interact intimately in front of people, Shu followed in and locked the door.
Next is what had happened countless times in this room or another room across the sea. The leading artist bent over and kissed his lover. Mika responded by holding him tighter, leaning back to increase the area for bodily contact. He also had another idea in his mind——Shu glanced from the corner of his eye, watching Mika adjust his posture and straddled on his lap, putting his hand on his shoulder. Then they exchanged a longer, more passionate kiss.
Shu would feel most strongly that this child was his most precious treasure at these moments. He believed that the stage was the one and only place where Mika’s identity as an artist and idol is displayed in front of the audience. As for everything else unknown to the public, he would keep them to himself.
The kiss was interrupted by a notification sound. Shu was annoyed by the untimely alert, and he squeezed his lover's waist twice lightly. Mika stayed on Shu’s lap, viewing the message in the Pretty5 group chat. He seemed to have forgetten about their business and was excitedly typed that he also thought the doll very lovely,
Shu patiently waited for three minutes. Seeing no reaction from Mika, he let out a half-angry laugh.
It wasn't until he interrupted his sweet lover with another kiss when his little fool returned to the atmosphere filled with affection. With a gentle yet commanding manner, Shu turned off Mika's phone and placed it on the table, right next to his own. (He wanted to throw it directly into the water bottle for a moment.) Interlocking one hand with Mika's fingers, his other hand supported Mika’s seemingly fragile waist and deepened the kiss. Mika was completely under his control, letting out a soft whimper as their tongues touched and twisted. Shu had only been gentle on the first occasion, but after learning the tolerance of his lovely counterpart, he never suppressed the desire for dominance buried in his bones since then.
Afterward, they went out for dinner as if nothing had happened. As for where they have left the traces of romance, that will be a secret known only to themselves.
THE END.
