Work Text:
A heavy sigh slipped through your lips as you leaned your head back against the lounge chair, your eyes fluttering shut as a small bead of sweat trickled down the side of your face. It was hot. No, it was more than hot. The sun was beating down on your skin relentlessly, and though you were clad in just a bathing suit and thin cover up, you still felt like you were still wearing too much. You didn’t even want to be outside, but your friends had been persistent in their invitations and you found that you were unable to turn them down.
Besides, the view had started to make up for it.
While you had no interest in the pool party that your friends had organized, your boyfriend had been more than enthusiastic about it. You weren’t entirely sure why, but as he dipped in and out of the water, his skin glistening with a mixture of water and sweat, you found it easier to forget about the heat of the day and instead, felt a different kind of heat fill you from the inside. A far more pleasant heat.
While you were at the mercy of the hot, summer sun, the only thing keeping you even remotely cool was the red popsicle that you were holding in your hand that Nagisa had offered to you just a few minutes prior. The coolness of the liquid through the plastic wrapping was a welcome feeling against the palm of your hand, and you lifted it to your lips before reopening your eyes, allowing a satisfied hum to fill your chest at the cold, tasty treat.
There was a lot happening in the area around you, and while you had found it deeply entertaining to watch your boyfriend swimming around and playing water games with all of your friends, you were surprised to now see him pulling himself from the water and heading in your direction. There was a small smirk on his face as your eyes gave him a quick once-over, as if knowing exactly the kind of thoughts that were running through your mind.
Could anyone really blame you? When you were dating someone like Jun Sazanami, how could you really do anything but stare?
His blue hair was a mussed up mess from where it had gotten wet and he had shaken it out, and water droplets dripped down his chest and abs, causing you to lick your lips instinctively at the sight. His work outs and idol training had done wonders for his current physique, and you found yourself appreciating it any change that you could, this time being no exception. His golden irises glowed in the afternoon sun, and as he drew closer, you felt your heart start to race - a feeling that had never really gone away since you had first started dating over a year ago.
“Why are you still sitting over here all by yourself?” He asked, his voice smooth and deep as he came to a stop right in front of your chair. His body provided a bit of shade, but that still didn’t help the overheated feeling that was starting to consume you.
“I’m enjoying my popsicle,” you responded quickly before holding up the small treat. Jun’s eyes flickered to it briefly while his smile continued to grow, as if he knew that you weren’t telling the whole truth. “It’s hot. I just wanted something to help cool me down.” That part definitely wasn’t a lie, but you also knew you were going to need something way more than a tiny popsicle to keep you from combusting at this point.
As if reading your mind, Jun slowly leaned forward, his knee coming to rest on the lounge chair between your own and both of his hands gripped the arms of the chair on either side of you. His eyes never left yours as he wrapped his lips around the top of the popsicle and bit off a tiny piece before slowly pulling away. You knew what he was doing, and while you hoped that your expression had remained unchanged, you were sure that he would notice the flush in your skin and maybe even hear the thundering in your chest in response to his actions.
“You’re right, that is refreshing,” he murmured, as his hands scooted forward on the arms of the chair, bringing his face closer to your own. “But I think you’d feel even better in the water. With me.”
You didn’t want to let him win. He was always flustering you in these different kinds of ways, and he loved teasing you about it afterwards. However, it was hard to concentrate when he was close enough that all you had to do was lean in just a couple of inches to press your lips against his. There was already a slight tinge of red painting his lips from the bite of popsicle he had just taken, but you couldn’t give in. You had to stay strong.
“My popsicle and I are good right here for now, thank you.” You accentuated your words by lifting the popsicle in between you and taking a bite of your own. Jun watched in amusement at your actions, and when his eyes drifted to your lips after the bite, you could feel your resolve falter just a little bit more.
Water from his skin and bathing suit was dripping down from where he was hovering over you, but you didn’t even really notice until he maneuvered himself closer and the wetness of his swim trunks pressed against the inside of your thigh, causing you to shiver.
“You're not playing fair,” he sighed, and while his voice sounded disappointed, his smirk still hadn’t faltered even slightly since he had walked over to you.
“And why’s that?” You asked curiously, trying to hide the slight shake in your voice as one of his hands moved from the arm of the chair to press against your side. You couldn’t feel his skin directly on yours, thanks to the cover up that you were wearing, but it was still thin enough that you could still feel the heat radiating off of his palm.
“Because right now, you’re giving that popsicle more attention than you’re giving me.”
In the blink of an eye, as if spurred on by his made-up jealousy, Jun leaned in and pressed his lips against yours, causing a surprised sound to come from your throat before your eyes were fluttering shut and your free hand was lifting to cup his cheek.
He tasted like a mixture of the sports drink he had been consuming to stay hydrated and the flavor of the popsicle you had just shared, and you sighed as your fingers pushed through his hair, the water in the strands feeling like a temporary reprieve from the heat for your hand. A part of you couldn’t believe how easily you gave in to his whims, but then again, it really wasn’t all that surprising. Jun had you wrapped around his finger, ready and willing to do whatever you could to bring a smile to his face. Kissing him in the heat of the summer while your friends watched on from a distance was no exception.
“Come on, come with me,” he purred when he pulled away. With eyes the color of molten gold, you felt yourself sinking into them, that warmth inside of you building and building until you felt like you were going to break.
“Jun,” you huffed, trying to sound frustrated, but instead sounding more pleading than anything else. Jun’s lips turned up even more at the sound of his name, and it was then that you both knew he had won. His temptations had succeeded once again, and as he pushed himself back up into a standing position, he was easily able to pull you up with him.
“You owe me,” you groaned as your free hand slipped into his as he led you towards the pool. With a brief glance over his shoulder, he squeezed your hand just as you lifted the popsicle to your lips to take another bite.
“Don’t worry, I’ll make it worth it for you.” The wink following his words almost had you choking on the ice in your mouth, causing Jun to laugh.
Your popsicle was soon forgotten completely as Jun led you to the edge of the pool and then waited for you to remove your cover-up before hopping down into the water. His hands lifted to take yours so that he could help you in, and as soon as your body sank below the surface, you breathed a sigh of relief.
“Better?” He asked with another knowing smirk. His hands had found a home on your hips, and when your eyes met his, you gave him a nonchalant shrug.
“I guess,” you teased, and Jun huffed out an indignant laugh before pulling you closer. You weren’t quite as hot anymore, but you were all-consumed with the way it felt to have his toned body pressed close to yours. He took you by surprise again when he leaned in for a kiss, your hand slipping from his shoulder as your arm wrapped around his neck while kissing him back.
“How beautiful. And a little devastating that I’m here all by myself,” you heard Hiyori proclaim from the other side of the pool just before you and Jun pulled apart. You smiled as you heard Ibara offering a few polite words of encouragement to his friend, but Jun didn’t seem to be paying either of them any mind.
“You are far more refreshing than the popsicle, by the way,” he murmured, only loud enough that the two of you could hear. You grinned as you pressed your face against his neck and kissing his shoulder quickly before pulling back to meet his gaze once more.
“And maybe you make the heat just a little more bearable,” you offered in return, and Jun rolled his eyes playfully before kissing your temple quickly.
“Now that I have you in the water, let’s kick these guys’ ass at Chicken.”
It was your turn to roll your eyes at his competitiveness, but who were you to say no? You already knew that your heart could never say no to him.
