Work Text:
Vision blurry, head slightly dazed. The crimson haired man had awoken from his slumber.His eyes blinking as he raised a hand to his face, rubbing the sand out of his eyes. He could feel hot breath being puffed into his face, his gaze shifting to the culprit.
Lucas.
Lucas had asked him to stay the night with him as he wasn't feeling too good emotionally. Somehow Torahiko found himself sleeping in the same bed as the boy. Which wasn't a problem to say at the least. Lucas was soft and warm. It made Tora feel calm. Torahiko was always aware of how emotional Lucas really was and he was kind of grateful that Lucas trusted him to show him these sides of him. He would be slightly jealous if anyone but Tora got to see him this way.It was warm under the blankets and Tora could feel the slight chill from the frosted air on his neck. He smiled softly at the current sleeping frenchman, his body rising and falling with each second. His sleeping face was so gentle it made Torahikos chest tighten just from staring. Tora sat up, yawning as the morning light hit his face. Looking at the time; it was just about 10:30. He'd have to leave soon so he could get ready for the ArS practice session later on. Kyosuke was texting him all night asking if the practice was still on or not.
"Bon matin." Tora turned his head back to the navy haired bassist. He had his hand over his face while his other hand searched for his glasses on the bedside table. "Good mornin'." He managed to reply back. Lucas sat up, adjusting his glasses to sit properally. "Sorry for asking you over again last ni--" Interupted, Tora replied "Don't be. Your beds more comfortable than mine anyways." He grinned flopping back down. Kind of basking in the morning sunlight while embarcing the comfiness of Lucas bed. The boy chuckled ever so slightly, laying back down with him. "Are you feelin' any better?" The artist asked, his eyes admiring the messy adorable bedhead the bassist had going on. "Yes. I think so. After all you spent the entire night reading fairytales to me and telling stories about your past...'Misadventures'" Lucas smiled, his emphesis being on the last part as Torahiko had told him the story of how he got caught by the police once. Tora pouted at he last part, he thought he was cool in hs story. "I'm glad they helped in some way, I hate seein' and hearin' you be like that. It makes me feel sad too." Tora muttered his hand reaching out to wipe Lucas' cheek (gay). Lucas grabbed his hand and sighed, his head shaking in some way as he started shifting a little closer to him. "As long as your here, I think I'll be okay." his face pressing against toras hand as he began. "You make me feel better in a way."
With that, Torahiko's cheeks started to fluster. He could feels the tips of Lucas' hair brush against his slender fingers and his soft pale cold skin contrasting with the warmth of his very ow hand. He nervously laughed "That's kinda gay of you "He withdrew from the boys touch, Lucas' own cheeks turning a shade of red themself. "Listen." He muttered defensively bringing his hands to nudge Tora. "Is there anything wrong with that?" He said quite annoyed, his eyes squinting at the other.The other boy paused. His chest begining to squeeze a little."No." He replied quieter than he intended to be, his voice merely but a squeak. There was silence between the two. Did...Did Lucas like boys? Like...Like like? He never seemed like the type to really be interested in anyone.He was always asking about Yamato Nadeshiko but...
"Hey." ruby red eyes stared right at the other. "What are you thinking about." The painter brought his hands up in defense. His mind quickly rushing to find something to say in response. "Do you like boys?" He blurted. There was no problem with it obviously. Tora accepted all people who had different prefrences. It meant they were all free people.Lucas sighed, closing his eyes. "I wouldn't be sleeping in a bed with one if I didn't." He answered rather bluntly; all Tora could respond with was a quiet "oh". His hand covering his mouth as he looked anywhere but where Lucas was. Torahiko was always too focused on his art than relationships or sexuality really.He just figured that he liked someone who was jut as amazing as him.Thinking about it, Lucas was extremely skillful, maybe not at cooking but with his music, he swore that everytime Lucas composed a new song for I♥B he'd fall in love with it.Tora proceeded to stare at his hands, seeing the dried in marks of yellow and bluepaint stained across his skin.
"How do you know you like them?" He asked, his voice softer than before.Lucas took a moment or two to think. He didn't know too well himself really. He just kinda..felt like he did."Well, in all honesty, there's only one boy I've ever seemed to like in that sort of way." He began. "I don't really usually have affectionate feelings like these for anyone. So I'm assuming it's because I hold some sort of romantic feelings that I might like men." His face flustering a little. It was embarrassing to hear less than to say. Tora nodded; he understood. It was cute in its own little way. Tora began to pick up on other slight "cute" things he could see on lucas. Like how under his right eye there was a mole and how long his eyelashes were compared to his own. Lucas was an inspiration for Torahiko, his actions and appearence giving some kind of idea what the painting was going to be. All the scarlet haired man could do was smile when he saw him. He was fond of Lucas, he remembered going out to buy him a plectrum, but he decided he was going to add his own little spice to it, by painting something very tiny on it. He would have never of expected to see Lucas wear it around his neck. It was sweet. It made his gut fill with happiness.
"Who is it?"
"Hm?" Lucas spoke up, his expression soft as he was still in he half-asleep state.The other had decided to look away, though Lucas could spot his ears changing to a reddish tint, to match with the morning sunlight that was spread across the room around them. "Who is it...that you like?" He spoke ever so softly. Lucas had admitted it himself he liked someone, a boy for that matter. It was starting to hit Tora that Lucas felt more comfortable and adored someone more than...Torahiko. That's kind of selfish y'know he thought to himself. He only wanted Lucas to be like this around himself. He felt..somewhat special that way. Lucas had a moment of silence. His throat giving out a drawed out groan. "Why is it you want to know?" He gestured to the painter. "Because." He replied sharply. "I'm nosey...Nishishi.." He grinned, still not facing the other as he could feel Lucas shuffling closer. "I could show you...but only if you really want to know. It's sort of embarrassing." He sighed. Pressing his forehead against Torahikos back.
"Mhm. I'm curious. Please show me." His tone flattened as he responded as serious as he could. "Face me." and Tora did exactly that. When his eyes met with Lucas' he could of sworn his heart stopped in his chest. Lucas' cheeks were just as red as his eyes. Tora would of laughed but he couldn't because his face was probably the same color. Lucas pulled his hands from beneath the covers, he held Tora's cheeks in his hands. He sighed once more, groaning a little. "Close your eyes, I don't wan't you to look right now. I'm kind of a mess." Tora stared for a moment, he was so breathtaken by the sight of one of his best friends he was almost completely zoned out. "Oh..ok." He obliged, his eyelids closing as if he was going right back to sleep.
In that moment, he could feel something get closer, his cheeks getting hotter as he felt something warm against his cheek. His eyes imediatly opened, his heart strating to speed up, Lucas was very close to him, their noses almost touching . "I guess that's your answer." He was lost for words really. He again reached for Lucas' hands and held the onto his cheeks. Everything he was doing was out of impulse, he had no control over it whatsoever. "Can." He swallowed. His mouth dry. "Can we do it again?" He asked.It was Lucas' turn to be surprised as his eyes widened suddenly, not expecting that answer. He nodded, placing another small kiss on the side of his face, Tora shivered, it was so confusing right now, he had no idea what he was feeling at all but he sort of liked it, he liked having Lucas this close to him, he liked how Lucas was straight up smooching him in his bed. "Can I try...?" Lucas smiled a somewhat genuine smile. It made Toras heart race even more. He moved in, kissing Lucas' right on his mole, the one that was under his eye.
"You know that's sort of gay." Lucas laughed, mocking what Torahiko had said earlier to him. "Is that a problem now?" Torahiko replied doing the exact same thing. They both laughed in respone, nuzzling eachother while holding eachother close. I guess you could say Torahiko realized his feelings about now. He probably wouldn't say it tight now but, he really cared and loved Lucas, he always had in his own little way. Kissing him like this was like a dream. It felt so warm and fuzzy and unreal. Lucas was soft and warm and gentle and cute and emotional and passionate and Torahiko saw all of it. He could have all of it. His heart beating like crazy now as he again, swiftly planted more kisses on the bassists face.
Well.
Maybe it was ok to skip practice for today.
