Work Text:
It was late at night and Satoru and Suguru had just finished a mission, but because they finished so late, they decided to book an inn and head back to Jujutsu Tech in the morning. With the school's card, they head to the only inn in the small town, but the lady at check-in tells them that they only have room left, which would be fine, but she informs them that there's only one bed. It was too late to find anything else and the last train a few miles outside of the town had departed an hour ago.
So. They were sharing.
It's not like they hated each other and were angry to be stuck together for an entire night. It was the opposite actually.
Satoru has been in love with Suguru since their first year. At first, he found Suguru irritating and loved to pick fights with him. At the end of their first year during an argument, Satoru had gotten in his face and rather than push Satoru away like he'd normally do, he leaned into Satoru's face, smirked, and said something that Satoru can't remember because he was too busy staring at Suguru's face. It's not like he never noticed that Suguru is attractive. But. At that moment, he really wanted to kiss Suguru, and the thought made his entire face red. Instead, he pushed Suguru away and ran off to his dorm room.
Since then, he's been pushing down his feelings.
On the other hand, Suguru has been at least a little bit in love with Satoru since the day they met.
He had gotten to class earlier than everyone else, and was sitting at his desk reading some manga when the classroom door slid open. He looked up and saw Shoko coming in first. Behind her came Satoru. Suguru felt his heart beat quicken as he took in Satoru's tall frame, snow white hair, and dark glasses that hid his eyes.
But then he opened his mouth and Suguru felt himself become annoyed. Despite being annoyed, his initial attraction towards Satoru never went away.
In the present, they were both standing inside their small room. There was a small bathroom right next to the entrance, a single armchair near the window, and one, despite being a full-sized, small bed that they were going to share.
Satoru sighed, dropped his bag, and made his way to the bed. He face planted and groaned into the pillow. “I’m so exhausted.”
Suguru kicked his foot that was hanging off the bed and said, "At least shower before you go to sleep. You reek and I don't want you to stink up the bed. We have to share, in case you forgot."
He made his way to the bathroom and washed himself. Afterwards, he ran his fingers through his hair a few times and left the bathroom. Satoru was now sitting in the armchair playing Suguru’s game and had removed his uniform jacket, and Suguru felt heart begin to race. He felt like tonight was going to be a very long night. If this was his reaction to Satoru in his uniform minus his jacket, he's going to go insane sleeping in the same bed as him when he's just in a t-shirt and shorts.
As Suguru made his way to the bed, Satoru sat the game down, got up from the chair, and entered the bathroom. Suguru knew that once Satoru finished in the bathroom, he'd also be coming to bed, so Suguru wanted to be in bed and hopefully asleep by the time Satoru was finished. He’s tired after the mission, but he’s also too charged knowing he’s going to be sleeping in the same bed as Satoru. He doesn't think he can manage to be awake and watch Satoru exit the bathroom with casual clothes. He can barely manage back at the dorms during their late night movie sessions or when they're just relaxing on their days off.
So, he lies down in the bed on the side farthest from the bathroom and turns his back to the bathroom. Even if he doesn’t manage to fall asleep, he still doesn't want to be able to see Satoru.
After some time, Suguru hears the bathroom door open, and he tenses slightly. He had failed to fall asleep and now has to be aware of Satoru beside him.
He feels Satoru get into bed but he doesn't turn over. He feels Satoru's feet brush his and his heart skips a beat. It's going to be a long night.
A few moments later, Satoru's arm brushes Suguru's back. "Sorry Suguru, this bed is really small," Satoru whispers, and it feels like he's right there whispering into Suguru's ear. Suguru turns over and he's face to face with Satoru. The light was still on so he could see Satoru's face clearly. His bright blue eyes, his white eyelashes, his pink lips that he so wanted to kiss.
Suguru realised he was staring at Satoru's lips and hurried to look back at his eyes. Satoru was watching him, so he saw Suguru staring at his lips. "Suguru," he whispered, starting to lean forward. Suguru stayed glued where he was, watching Satoru with wide eyes. As he was leaning forward, Satoru watched Suguru. When he saw that he wasn't moving away, he closed his eyes and closed the space between them. Their lips touched and they both melted into the kiss.
It was like a switch was flipped. Before they made sure they weren't touching, but now they closed the gap between them and clung to each other as if it hurt to stay apart.
Satoru sat up and leaned over Suguru, pressing him into the mattress as he continued to kiss him. His arms were caging Suguru, completely surrounding him on all sides.
Pulling away and putting his forehead to Suguru's, Satoru says, "Suguru, you don't know what you do to me. I've been crazy about you since forever. Do you know how insane I felt when the innkeeper told me there was only one bed in this room. I told myself I wouldn't do anything crazy, but then you looked at me like that and I just couldn't help myself." He had his eyes closed so he couldn’t see the way Suguru's eyes had blown wide open. He then smiled and snaked his arms around Satoru's neck and brought him down onto him, hugging him close. bringing his lips to his ears, he whispered into Satoru's ears, "I've loved you since the day we met, you know."
Satoru immediately pulled back and stared at Suguru. He had disbelief written all over his face, but it was replaced with a wide grin. He surged forward and kissed suguru with more vigor. He licked at suguru's lips, and Suguru parted his lips, letting Satoru in. The kiss went deeper and after a few moments, Suguru pulled away to catch his breath.
Satoru snaked his arms around Suguru's waist and hugged him, still laying on top of him.
They laid there, holding each other. Satoru turned his face into Suguru's cheek and kissed it. Suguru let out a little laugh and pinched Satoru's side. Satoru yelped, but didn't move away. With his lips still against Suguru's cheek, he said, "I didn't say it back, but I love you too. And I will always love you, even when you get sick of me."
"Impossible." They stayed like that, limbs tangled together, and fell asleep.
