“I swear, they’re practically inseparable!” Kimizuki groaned and put his hand up to his glasses in annoyance.
“I know right?! The two never let go of each other.” Mitsuba added, looking towards Kimizuki. “They’re holding hands constantly, it’s kinda annoying…” Mitsuba muttered under her breath, looking away from the pink haired boy.
“Aw! Mi-chan I know you’re just jealous that you don’t get to hold hands with Yuu-san!” Shinoa jested towards the annoyed blonde girl. Mitsuba instantly blushed, furrowing her brow at Shinoa.
“I’m not jealous!” But before she could deny it even more, Shinoa tackled Mitsuba in her seat, giggling at the blushing girl.
“Don’t worry, Mi-chan. You have me!” Shinoa teased as she continued to hug the other girl.
Currently, it was lunch time and the Shinoa squad decided to get together for lunch at the café that was built close to them. Now that it was after the war, the squad had been given free time to do anything they’d like on their own time. Now that Mika was also back, reunited with his dear friend, Yuu, he also joined in with the squad.
Yoichi looked down at his watch to see the time, and frowned slightly. “I am a bit worried for Yuu-kun and Mika-kun...they’re fifteen minutes late to our get together!” Yoichi sighed, looking out the window.
Kimizuki just continued to sip from his drink and exhaled. “I wouldn’t worry too much about it. They’re always-” The pink haired boy then spotted Yuu and Mika entering the café, panting slightly. As soon as they entered, the squad noticed Mika and Yuu holding hands, but it was no surprise. The two sighted the rest of the squad sitting at a table and quickly rushed over. Yuu spoke first, waving at them with a huge smile on his face.
“Sorry we’re late! Some things happened at home.” Mika then let out a slight chuckle.
“Meaning, Yuu-chan was stuck in the bathroom for about 20 minutes.” Mika added, smirking at the red beet black haired boy. Yuu instantly turned towards the blonde, furrowing his brow.
“Sh-shut up, Mika! Don’t tell them these things!” Yuu practically squeaked out in embarrassment.
“Aw but you look so cute when you blush, Yuu-chan.” That made Yuu blush even more and he covered his face.
“Me? Cute?! You should look at yourself, Mika!” Oh god why did Yuu say that. They were both blushing like crazy, especially now that the whole squad was watching their interaction. It was silent for a few moments, until Shinoa broke out laughing.
“You guys are priceless. You two should really go get a room!” Shinoa snickered, pointing at the two flushed boys.
The rest of the time was very embarrassing for Mika and Yuu, especially with all the teasing they received from Shinoa during that lunch.
It had been like this for a while. Mika and Yuu were practically inseparable. Constantly holding hands, touching each other faces, and even sleeping next to each other sometimes. No one knew what was up with them, but all they knew was that they refused to let go of each other.
After the get together with the Shinoa squad, they made their way back home, both silent and just holding hands tightly.
And as soon as they arrived back home, Yuu pulled Mika into a hug, burying his face into Mika’s neck and the vampire wrapped his arms around the other. Yuu was aware that this was more than a friend or even brother kind of hug, but he didn’t care. All that time where he didn’t get to see Mika, made Yuu long for the blonde.
Mika then broke the silence with a soft chuckle and began to pet Yuu’s soft, ebony hair.
“You’re so warm Yuu-chan...it’s so calming…” Mika mumbled into Yuu’s ear. “Do you want to go sit down on the couch? You seem like you’re about to fall asleep right here in my arms.”
The blonde asked and continuingly caressing Yuu. The black haired boy simply nodded and as soon as he did, Mika hoisted him up and carried Yuu to the couch.
“You don’t have to carry me, idiot!” Yuu grumbled, crossing his arms.
“Aw but I want to keep Yuu-chan in my arms…” Mika pouted, finally setting himself and Yuu onto the couch.
When Mika and Yuu finally got comfortable on the couch, they ended up in eachothers arms, holding each other firmly. The only light in the room came from the full moon that had it’s light shine in from the window and the light spilling onto the floor. It was just light enough to see their faces. It was silent and the only sounds you could hear were Mika and Yuu’s shallow breaths.
Eventually Mika finally spoke up, which was rare when they were hugging like this.
“Yuu-chan, can I ask you a question?” Yuu looked up at the the blonde and immediately Yuu could tell Mika was troubled by something. Yuu then readjusted himself, propping up his head against his hand.
“Sure, what’s up Mika?” When he started looking into Mika’s eyes, he couldn’t help put cup Mika’s face in his hand. It was bizarre to Yuu how he’d just unconsciously do it, but he didn’t question it.
“Lately I’ve been thinking...a lot...about...us.” The blonde stuttered out, staring deeply into the black haired boy’s green eyes. Yuu had a feeling of where this was going. What if Mika didn’t want to do these hug sessions anymore? What if Mika got tired of Yuu? He suddenly got extremely worried.
“And...how do you see...us?” Mika asked quietly. Yuu raised his eyebrow in confusion. “Let me rephrase it…” Mika bit down on his lip and Yuu noted that he seemed very hesitant. “How do you see our relationship? Do you just see me...as a brother when you do all these things with me?” Yuu instantly shot up from his laying position, and looked down at the vampire who jumped at how quickly Yuu got up.
“Hah?! Is that how you think I see you?!” Okay. That seemed like an impulsive thing to say.
“Well, I don’t know! You always say, ‘family, family, family’ and I didn’t know if…” Mika looked away from Yuu’s gaze, afraid to say anything more.
“If…?” Yuu tilted his head, leaning closer towards Mika. The blonde was silent and Yuu could tell the vampire was trembling slightly, making Yuu want to cling onto Mika to calm him down. He finally spoke up.
“If you actually see me more than a friend.” Mika mumbled, his eyes still looking away from Yuu.
God. Stupid, stupid Mika. Well Yuu didn’t blame him really. He wasn’t really sure himself if Mika had feelings towards him.
Yuu then moved towards Mika, bringing the vampire closer to him. Not holding Mika in his arms was unbearable. He just wanted to be with the blonde, making sure that he’d never leave his side again.
“Idiot...of course I see you more as a friend.” Yuu mumbled into the boy’s ear, as he caressed Mika’s back. “You’re my everything. I can’t stand to be distanced from you. I just…” He pulled his head away to look at Mika, who was blushing subtly, red eyes practically screaming, “I love you.”
“I want to be with you. I see you so much more than a friend, Mika.” The blonde instantly dove for Yuu, his arms wrapped around Yuu tightly and showered the other in kisses.
“Yuu-chan...Yuu-chan...you’re my everything too…” He then bumped his forehead against Yuu’s, looking intensely into those deep, green eyes that shone of affection. “Those long four years, Yuu-chan...they were so insufferable without you...my Yuu-chan…” He sounded as if he was about to break into tears. Hearing Mika like that, almost made Yuu cry. Yuu laughed, his voice cracking a bit from the upcoming tears.
“Gah, fuck Mika...I’m about to cry because of you.” Mika laughed in response and cradled Yuu in his arms.
“Sorry Yuu-chan.” The vampire apologized, nuzzling his head against Yuu’s.
“Stupid. Don’t be sorry.” He muttered into Mika’s neck.
The rest of the night they clung onto each other in silence, in sheer bliss. No words needed to be exchanged, just them holding onto each other and being together was enough to mean, “You are my everything.”
