Work Text:
Kamisato Group, the apex firm of Inazuma based on Narukami Island. Various products, services, and sponsors consist of their money and child companies. It’s safe to say, this multi-billionaire company rules the economy of Inazuma and partakes in a big chunk of the world economy. The Kamisato Group is the type of group that would build a company for their needs and supplies to make sure they self-supply instead of relying on another company. The amount of business under them is no joke, and the person on top of this golden chariot is, of course, the Kamisato family.
With the current head right now being Kamisato Ayato, co-headed by his sister, Kamisato Ayaka; the company has been growing rapidly through small businesses especially catering. They start to rise higher thanks to the income made from catering events as well as domestic households.
Some would argue that the siblings were just continuing their late parents’ legacy, not giving them much credit. While some would argue that the group has been reformed inside and out, leaving the current group to be built fully by the siblings. Despite the debate revolving around the siblings and their predecessors, it is still an immovable fact that they are on top of the economy.
Only a handful of people have seen the head’s face, as he seldom makes an appearance. His sister would always be found in social gatherings as well as parties in place of him. Yet, he still appears in gossip and infotainments as the most eligible bachelor of the year since some paparazzi snapped a back photo of him. Literally, the only thing visible in the picture was the top of his blue head with his straight back.
On the top of the Kamisato building, the most eligible bachelor of the year was sighing on his desk at one in the morning. He still had not finished his pile of paperwork because he was too distracted by bothering his secretary, Thoma. Now he’s paying the price. Oh, how he really wants to go home.
His phone blinked, and the blue-haired leader immediately unlocked his phone in a matter of milliseconds. The corners of his mouth rose up so quickly before he hurriedly suppressed it back to his usual deadpan face. He quickly typed a response and continued working as if nothing happened.
Yet, his working pace became a tad bit faster after that message.
The clock strikes two, and the head slams his laptop closed, stuffs it into his bag, and zapped to the elevator. Even the employees who stayed to guard him were flustered, as he just ran to the elevator. He’s pouting while tapping his feet impatiently, looking at his phone again and again.
“Why is this damn elevator so slow?” He complained. He kept punching the button until the elevator arrived. As soon as the metal doors open, he steps in and punches the level to his car.
Of course, being the head of a multi-billionaire company is not easy. Ayato is always subject to a lot of assassination attempts and robbery attempts. That’s why his parking space is built right under the public parking space. And what’s more, the ridiculously rich man used his funds to build an underground tunnel right into his garage at home to make sure of his privacy. Or perhaps he just wants to get home faster.
Speeding in his tunnel, he finally sees the light to his home garage. He parked his car oh-so smoothly near the entrance, and hurriedly got out and locked his car. He mounted the small glass elevator up to the house, taking off his coat in the process. Another heavy sigh is released, once again.
“Haa.. I know it’s my duty, but I still can’t wrap my head around how much I still have to do tomorrow. Should I just bring the material home? But Thoma would not like that.” He mumbled while stretching his stiff back, cracking some joints in the process. He then looked at his ring finger, decorated with a simple bronze ring. He smiled contently and gave the ring a kiss.
There is one big scoop that has been hidden perfectly from the public. The fact that this most eligible bachelor is married. To his secretary. The bronze ring he always wears is actually a golden ring with their initials engraved on it, but it was coated with bronze to not raise suspicions. Of course, being a matching ring, it would not miss the public’s eye when they both wear it, so his secretary, Thoma wears it as a necklace everywhere. This way, their relationship is out of prying eyes. Only his sister knows of their relationship.
The glass door opens to the side, allowing Ayato to finally step into his house. His body is sore all over, a whole day of sitting down didn’t do him any good. ..Also Thoma taking him in his lounge before lunch took a toll on his hips. He now thinks that turning thirty really downplays his flexibility. Anyways, he took off his tight loafers and put them aside, making sure to put them in the shoe rack neatly so as to not get an earful from his dear husband.
The house feels a little void of presence, but a lingering smell of fresh sun with a tinge of firewood could be sensed in the air. Ayato settled his bag down on the couch, slowly walking around the house to look for his beloved.
“Thoma?” He called out softly.
He finally arrived in the dining room, finding his husband slumped on the table with his head buried between his arms. Ayato smiled softly, stepping closer to his figure silently to not wake him up. He just observed his lover’s back rising up and down, his eyes closed and his face looked so serene.
Of course, the head immediately whipped out his phone and snapped a few, no, several, pictures of his secretary sleeping. He just chuckled quietly looking through the pictures he took.
It has been several years since they were married and he is grateful he could come home to this. There were no more lonely nights, or coming home to an empty bed, an empty house, and an empty heart. Especially since Ayaka decided to move out into her own unit after turning twenty, ah–it was nostalgic.
“..Yato?” The half-sleeping figure mumbled out.
Ayato sat down on the table and poked his cheek, “Thomaaa, wake up. Go to bed. You shouldn’t have wai-” His sentence was immediately cut off when Thoma effortlessly picked him off the table and placed Ayato on his lap.
“Hoho, looks like someone is cuddly today~” He teased while placing his lips on Thoma’s forehead. The close proximity makes him feel giddy and warm inside, but it shall only be for Thoma.
“Mnn… You’re late.” The sleepy Thoma remarked, placing his head on Ayato’s chest trying to look at his beloved’s face properly.
“Yeah, I had to pay the price for bothering you and leaving early for lunch.” He smiled softly, basking in the warmth of his significant other. Thoma’s arms slot perfectly around his waist, and Ayato’s arms around the other’s shoulder.
“I need a consolation prize because I’m so sad my husband comes home so late in the morning.” Said Thoma dramatically, his lips forming a cute pout that the blue-haired man feels that it’s cheating. The man on his lap chuckled, proceeding to caress the taller’s cheek gently before placing a simple peck on his lips.
Which made the blonde pout more. “It’s not enough, Ayato. Why are you so stingy?” The blonde was throwing a mini tantrum by rubbing his chin on Ayato’s chest harshly, tickling his senses a little.
“Fufu- Don’t do that! You know I’m ticklish if you do that, you kissing demon.” He tries to pry off Thoma’s head away, but even when half-asleep, this man could still carry Ayato as if he weighs nothing. If he wasn’t Ayato’s secretary, he would probably be a good asset for a bodyguard.
The blonde then reached out to pull the back of Ayato’s head, clashing their lips together. Ayato immediately responded by kissing his husband with a similar intensity. They’re slotted together perfectly, one piece completes another.
The sounds of wet kisses, Thoma’s breathing, and their clothes rubbing together calmed a part of the stress Ayato had in the day. Thoma’s hand is caressing along Ayato’s spine comfortingly while Ayato’s fingertips are caressing Thoma’s eartips lovingly, which became a habit between the two every time they made out. Ayato tilted his head, deepening the kiss they share and sneakily invited his tongue into Thoma’s mouth. He smiled when Thoma meets him in the middle, turning their kiss into a sloppy one.
Ayato then slowly withdrew himself, only to get another peck from his husband, who looks like he still demands more. He chuckled, “are you trying to distract me from taking a shower? Because that’s not happening.” He pried Thoma’s arms slowly, his husband pouting in defeat.
Ayato took his husband’s face into his hands and pecked his nose. “Go to bed, I’ll join you in bed after bath.” He proceeded to turn the hot water on to let it warm up as he took off his clothes.
His tie came off, then his blue shirt. After that, his belt came off along with his trousers. He was in the middle of taking his undergarment off when he then stared at his reflection in the mirror.
He does start to look like a thirty-year-old man. He just sighed, he wished he still had those really defined muscles he could show off to Thoma. He wished he wouldn’t easily sprain his back now. His skin is starting to sag a little, it’s not evident but he could still see the difference. Back then, he used to be so energetic and he was able to do a lot of things without a care, now he has to watch more of what he eats, it’s devastating. Not to mention the frequent dark undereye circles when his rival companies start to act up-
A kiss on his nape snapped him out of all his thoughts. His husband had also stripped off completely, placing his arm around Ayato’s waist, making circles with his thumb.
“Honey, why are you spaced out? Didn’t you say you were going to take a bath?” Thoma asked worriedly after noticing the kiss he placed made his beloved flinch a little.
Ayato turned to face his husband, feasting his eyes on Thoma’s glorious muscles. Why couldn’t his muscles stay the same just like Thoma? He unknowingly pouted while poking at Thoma’s pecs and abs.
The blonde took hold of Ayato’s hand and placed a kiss on his fingertips. “You know that all that boba and sitting is not going to give you these, right?” He teased the blue-hair.
“Hmph, of course, I know. I will start working out again after this damned project.” He declared, removing Thoma’s hand gently and walking towards the tub.
“Hey, but at least your behind grew quite nicely, love.” Thoma complimented mischievously.
“Hoo, is that so, Thoma, dear?” Ayato smirked at him through his shoulder. “Is that why these days you’ve been taking me from behind?~” He teased while jutting out his butt and caressing it sensually.
The blonde immediately turns red.
This is why Ayato loves teasing his husband. “T-that’s not it– Wait-”
The blue-haired man just laughed and settled down in his tub, gesturing Thoma to join him. The flustered man then joined him, scooping Ayato between his legs so Ayato can lean back on him. Ayato sighed, letting go of all his stress and thoughts.
But he couldn’t help the insecurities he had earlier. He knows he and Thoma could never publicize their relationship, which means they could not have a proper date just like other couples, only some private dining in rented restaurants, a karaoke night at Itto’s place since he has no clue who Ayato is, or watching a movie at home.
“Thoma?” He softly called, slowly rubbing his arms with soap.
“Yes, baby?” His husband answered, placing kisses along his shoulder.
“I’m sorry.”
Thoma’s hug around his hips tightened a little. “What do you mean?”
“...Because of my position, I could buy anything for you, but I can’t take you on normal dates just like what we used to do when we were still dating. And I constantly work all the time aside from hiding our relationship, it’s so hard to give you attention as a lover.” He confessed apologetically, regretting all the times he had to brush off Thoma’s kisses because a staff member had entered the room abruptly.
“Wait, babe-” Thoma tried to say something, but was cut off by Ayato’s continued apology.
Ayato is almost panicking with his thoughts. “No, I-I- I just realized that I haven’t been a proper husband, always coming home separately despite having lived together, never taking you out in public– I shouldn’t be surprised if in the future you’ll meet someone more loving-”
“AYATO!” Thoma half-shouted his name to barge into Ayato’s uncontrollable thoughts. Thoma pulled Ayato’s face close, peppering kisses on his face, especially around his eyes and his cute mole.
“Calm down, sweetheart. I’m not leaving you.” The blonde whispered sweetly. After being with his husband for years, of course he knows. He knows that the multi-billionaire man is most definitely not omnipotent.
This man who would always have his name mentioned in magazines as the ‘most calm and progressive’ businessman is nothing more but a man who had to take on parental duties much earlier for his little sister. This had pushed his sense of duty, but at the same time, it made him do a lot of self-blaming. Ayato had always lived depending on himself, thus despite being in a relationship, he would still think everything is his fault. He would always appear confident and mischievous, but at times he would have episodes of anxiety and self-hatred. Just like what is happening now.
“Ayato, I am going to be here.” Thoma declared as he stared straight into the other’s beautiful violet-blue eyes.
“I started this relationship knowing that situations could change. I knew. And I have stuck with you all along the journey. I will not just leave. I built this house of cards with you.” Thoma slowly spoke, making sure his point was getting across while lathering soap on Ayato’s back, slowly massaging the latter’s back.
“....fine. You have a point.” The head changes his mind quickly when it’s his husband talking.
“But I think I would still like to publicize our relationship so I can take you out in public and those pesky bastards will stop offering their daughters like some kind of objects!” Ayato growled remembering a pile of wedding proposals on one corner of his desk.
Thoma chuckled, “Maybe for now we could make a little bit of a holiday for the company. We’ve been working so hard since last month, I think three days of holiday will maintain the staff members’ mental health.” he suggested, tracing hearts on Ayato’s forearm.
“Thoma, if this is your ploy to drain my energy in bed for three days I will send you to the marketing department for good.” Ayato warned, remembering the last time he made a company holiday, he ended up not getting any rest because of his husband.
“Hm? No! Please, I’ll behave this time. Anything but the marketing department.” Thoma dislikes being put in the marketing department, because there would always be a horde of ladies surrounding his desk, making it hard for him to work.
“Good, but remember my warning. I really never know what to do with you horny demon.” Ayato grumbled.
“A kissing demon and now a horny demon? Don’t be like that, you also like it.” Thoma pouted. “Remember that one time in the archive you just pushed me down and-”
“Marketing department.”
“Aye aye, I will shut up, sir.”
“Just where did I pick up such a haughty secretary?” Ayato smiled widely.
“There, you’re all lathered up. Just rinse it off and get out. Your skin will get too wrinkled if you stay for too long.” Thoma reminded while washing off some of the remaining soap on his body before getting out of the bathroom.
“Okay mom.” Ayato rolled his eyes while shouting.
“I can see your eye-roll from here, Ayato.” Thoma warned, earning a laugh from the blue-haired.
✻ ✻ ✻
Steaming out of the shower and dressed in his sleeping robe, he looks for his husband as he couldn’t find him in their shared bed. Once again he found him in the kitchen, leaning on his arm and nodding off.
“Thoma, I told you to go to bed first.” Ayato knitted his brows and brushed some stray hair off Thoma’s face.
“Mm- Oh!” He snapped awake and hurriedly placed two mugs between them. “I made some green tea. It will help you relax.” He said while picking up his shiba-inu mug.
Ayato carefully picked up his cat mug, sipping on it in bliss. “I told you before that it’s unnecessary to make tea before bed,” He sighed, enjoying his gulp of green tea, “if you’re tired.” He continued, his actions totally opposing his words as he really likes drinking tea before sleep.
The blonde chuckled, “You already said earlier that you couldn’t bring me out on dates.” Ayato’s hand that was about to lift his mug stopped.
“We can’t go out like normal couples do. We can’t kiss in public, we can’t go to the movies together.” He quoted the things Ayato said earlier. “So, one of my ways to cherish you is with these small things.” He held Ayato’s hand, rubbing circles on it.
“I like just being with you. I like drinking tea before bed with you. I like waking up to your sleeping face. I like having breakfast with you, as well as our small goodbye kisses even though we’re going to meet at work.” Thoma said wholeheartedly, placing a kiss on Ayato’s hand.
Ayato wanted to cry. How did he land this man? Of course, their first meeting was rocky. But it wasn’t long until they became best friends, and then lovers. Tears welled up in his eyes, he’s very grateful he has Thoma.
“Ayato? Baby, no, don’t cry..” Thoma’s thumb immediately reached out to wipe his tears. Ayato then nuzzled into Thoma’s hand, before launching himself to hug his husband.
“Thomaaa..” The blue-haired whined in the other’s ear. “I love you.” He sniffled. Thoma smiled and hugged him back, “I love you too.”
After a while, they pulled apart and continued drinking their tea, Thoma wiping the wetness of Ayato’s eyes.
“Shall we finish drinking and retire?”
“Mn.”
✻ ✻ ✻
The next day, Ayato made the whole company go on a three-day holiday. This heightened the staff members’ moods and increased their productivity for the whole month. And also, Ayato publicized his face as well as his husband to the world, shocking many.
Of course, Ayato didn’t care. He shredded all the marriage proposals satisfied and went on a short honeymoon with his husband during the three-day holiday.
BREAKING NEWS! The most eligible bachelor of the year turns out to have been married for 7 years to his secretary!
