It’s 3 am, Satoru and Suguru are sitting on their shared apartment’s kitchen floor. They’re taking turns eating spoon fulls of butter pecan ice cream with soft blushes on their faces.
They’ve come a long way. After the whole star plasma vessel incident, they had a tense relationship for several years before sitting down to talk and understand one another. It had been hard at first, trying to see both sides, but eventually they came to a consensus, mostly.
After that, it took a few more years before they completely rebuilt what they had. And finally, two years ago, Satoru had suddenly confessed to Suguru.
They were at a park near Satoru’s apartment; it was nearly 1 am and they were sitting on a pair of swings talking about anything and everything.
~~~~~
Satoru slowly reaches for Suguru’s hand and intertwines their fingers. The younger man takes a small, but sharp, breath in and looks at Satoru with stars in his eyes and a blush appearing on his face.
“I love you, Suguru,” the man says. “I love you so much, that…that I can barely call my heart my own!”
Suguru’s eyes dart back and forth between Satoru’s own. His quick breaths can be seen in puffs from the cold weather. And before either of them realize it, tears begin to stream down Suguru’s face. His eyes are crinkled at the corners as a blinding smile appears.
“God, Satoru, you have no idea how long I’ve dreamt to hear you say that,” he says with a wet laugh. He envelops Satoru’s other hand with his and brings them to his cheeks.
Be sits their breathing for a moment before lifting his head and lurching forward, smashing his lips against Satoru’s in a passionate kiss.
They stay like that, moving their lips against the others until they could no longer breathe. They only separate when they become so desperate for air that they’re sure their lips are blue.
“I love you Satoru, my god I love you so much,” he whispers so quietly that if it weren’t for their closeness, it wouldn’t have been heard.
Satoru leans in and kisses Suguru like his life depends on it. He giggles into the kiss, taking one of his hands and threading it through Suguru’s long, black hair.
“Let’s go back to my place,” Satoru whispers. “I just want to finally be able to sleep next to you.”
And that’s what they do. They go back to Satoru’s apartment, sharing chaste kisses every so often.
When they enter the door, they both knew that this was going to be forever.
They walk into the bedrooom and plop down, Suguru laying on his back with his hand in snowy white hair that’s splayed out across his chest.
They both have content smiles on their faces, whispering small “i love you”‘s before falling asleep in each others arms.
~~~~~
Satoru is snapped back to reality when he feels a palm lightly nudge his forehead backwards.
“Satoruuuuuu?” Suguru says with a smile. “Hey Sato, what’s on your mind darling?” he asks.
“Oh, just thinking of when we confessed,” he says with a small smile.
Suguru gives him a fond look before taking his boyfriends hand a placing a kiss on his knuckles.
“What a wonderful night that was,” he says with another kiss to his wrist.
“I love you, Sato.”
“I love you too, Sugu.”
And with gentle smiles and creeping blushes, they take another spoon full of ice cream into their mouths, confident that they’re always meant to be with each other.
