It was the feeling of the blanket being pulled away that rustled Mika in his sleep. He groans, tugging it back onto himself. But he’s met with resistance. He sighs, intent on sitting up and shooing what he assumes to be Yuu’s kitty, Asuramaru, away. But the moment his eyes open, he’s met with a familiar face.
“Yuu-chan?” Long eyelashes blink back at him, and Mika’s sleep riddled brain realizes, yup, that’s Yuu-chan. Mika furrows his brows , trying to remember where they are. He has to remind himself that no, he is not staying over at Yuu’s house. Asuramaru just kind of… tends to follow Yuu around. Even into Mika’s house. And he loves snuggling between them when they lay against each other like this.
Now more awake, Mika remembers their situation. Yuu had come over and ended up staying late, because Mika was tutoring Yuu for their upcoming math test. At least, that’s what Yuu told his father. Really, they just had reviewed a few problems, laid with each other, and kissed. And, honestly? Score.
Sure, Mika swore he’d actually help Yuu get his grades up, but would it be so bad if his payment came in kisses? Honestly, Mika thinks it’s the best idea he’s ever had. He stares up at Yuu’s lustrous green eyes in the dark. “…what is it?”
“I can’t sleep.”
“Mhm…” Mika has been in this situation before, and he knows exactly what Yuu expects of him. He scoots to the edge of his bed, laying on his side as he lifts his arm off the bed, inviting Yuu in with a sleepy smile. Yuu, as he always does, immediately moves to plop himself into Mika’s arms, his back against Mika’s chest. He lets out a soft, content sigh.
Mika chuckles, his arms wrapping around Yuu’s waist as he pulls him into a position they’ve become rather comfortable in as of late. “You’re always doing this Yuu-chan… I swear, it’s like you want to live with me or something. I mean, you already have some stuff here. Some clothes, your toothbrush…” He trails off, and shudders. “…those horrifying face masks.”
“They’re not that bad, they keep me soft,” Yuu sleepily quips, scoffing.
“Yes they are! They look freaky!” Mika whines softly. He decides to redirect the teasing towards Yuu. “So… what? Are you just gonna smuggle yourself into my bed every night? Accidentally stay over all the time?”
Yuu huffs, his back pressed flush against Mika’s chest. Mika grins, and decides to push a bit further. And he decides to use a small piece of knowledge he learned recently. “What do you take me for? Your comfort teddy bear or something?”
Yuu’s cheeks flush, and he scoffs. Mika had found out that Yuu likes sleeping with big pillows and plushies, tightly hugging them in his sleep. They make him feel safe and warm, alright? Geez.
“S-So what? Huh?” He tries grumbling, although the stutter makes it lose effect. He continues. “Besides, you’re not cute enough to be a teddy bear.”
“Ouch.” Mika stuffs his face against the back of Yuu’s neck. Truth be told, he doesn’t know if he could sleep normally if Yuu didn’t come in. He’s gotten so used to having the comforting warmth of another person pressed against his chest. His arm drapes itself over Yuu’s chest, pressing them close for maximum warmth. Yuu-chan’s got that warm water bottle, and plush pillow vibe, y’know? Maybe he’s just like Yuu-chan in that way. “Then what? Am I your mother that you go to after you have a nightmare?”
“You’re not mommy either,” Yuu mutters, eyes fluttering to a close. “You little… pretty freak.”
Mika chuckles at the ‘pretty’, and repeats his question. “Then what?”
A silence stretches out, and for a second Mika thinks Yuu fell asleep, but a voice murmurs. “I just wanna ride… get high in the moonlight…”
Mika blinks, letting out a huff of laughter. “Was that… Kali Uchis?”
“Mhm… I wish she was in bed with me instead of you,” Yuu retorts. Contrary to his words, he snuggles closer to the blond.
“Hey.” Mika pouts, gently biting down on the supple flesh of Yuu’s neck. Yuu whines, but doesn’t bother swatting Mika away. He’s gotten used to Mika’s ‘weirdo vampire biting habit’, as Yuu calls it. He always compares me to vampires… the pale skin, cold attitude… man, this biting stuff really isn’t helping my case, huh?
Mika lifts a hand to run his fingers through Yuu’s slick raven hair, cooing a little too excitedly in his ear. “I can sing too. Watch!” He clears his throat. “I just wanna get high with my lover! Uh… spanish something something…kiss, kiss! Looking dolly, I think I may go out tonight…”
Mika pauses, waiting expectantly. It takes a second, before Yuu huffs. “Spanish something something…” He quietly mocks, before muttering. “I just wanna ride, get high in the moonlight.”
“See? Could Kali Uchis do that?” Mika grins, massaging Yuu’s scalp. The ravenette hums.
“Yeah. And she’d do it better. By, y’know, actually singing the Spanish part.”
“Meanie. You’re being awfully mean for someone who woke me up to cuddle you to sleep.”
Yuu shuffles in Mika’s embrace, moving so that he’s face to face with Mika. He lifts a hand, covering Mika’s mouth with it. “Shh, Mika. Be a good Kali Uchis teddy bear and let me sleep.”
Mika rolls his eyes. He speaks through Yuu’s fingers, words muffled but understandable. “Why should I? You’re the one who woke me up first.”
Yuu sighs. He leans up, pressing a soft, quick kiss to the back of his hand. “Go to sleep, idiot.”
Mika’s face flushes red, his breath hitching in his throat, and all he does is nod. Yuu drops his hand from Mika’s mouth, moving in to snuggle against Mika again. When Yuu rests his head against Mika’s chest, Mika wonders if he can hear how hard his heart is pounding. If he does, he doesn’t mention it. After all, Yuu tends to get a bit bold whenever he’s sleepy like this. A goofy smile appears on his lips. Oh, this will be fun to tease him about once he remembers tomorrow.
Mika lets his chin rest on the top of Yuu’s head, sighing as he lets himself relax. His eyes start to get droopy again, and he whispers to himself as he finally starts to fall asleep.
“I just wanna get high with my lover… get high in the moonlight.”
