Work Text:
The last day of school before summer break.
Everyone was really for the two month break we'd get from school, the excitement those hot days where you can stay in and eat cold sweets to cool off, those days you can just sleep in, those days you can hang out with friends.
But Yoshiki didn't know what he wanted to do during summer break..
He didn't know how to make the summer break worthwhile; productive.
It can feel weird being alone with 'Hikaru', especially with how unpredictable he now can be.
Yoshiki sighed, setting his head down on the desk as he closed his eyes.
What can I do other than sitting in bed and reading manga?
"Yoshiki?" A familiar voice spoke out.
It was 'Hikaru's voice.
Yoshiki faced 'Hikaru', his face still on the desk.
Yoshiki answered 'Hikaru' with a hum.
"You okay?" 'Hikaru' asked with a confused tone.
Yoshiki let out a deep sigh.
"Yea... I'm fine. Just thinking," Yoshiki huffed out.
'Hikaru' gave Yoshiki a confused and amused smile in response.
"Ooo, whatcha thinkin' about Yoshiki? Somethin' dirty?" 'Hikaru' teased with an amused child-like grin.
Yoshiki only gave 'Hikaru' an annoyed stare, triggering 'Hikaru' to giggle slightly.
"Hikaru, if somethin's funny do you mind sharin' it with the class?" the Teacher spoke as the class was deathly silent.
Yoshiki smiled at 'Hikaru' slightly, finding some satisfaction in him getting into trouble.
'Hikaru' flashed me a small smile back at Yoshiki's amusement before responding to the Teacher.
"Nah.. Sorry Teach," 'Hikaru' gave a nervous grin as his hand rested on his nape.
The teacher sighed and turned around to face the board.
"Why Teach is actually teaching on the last day of school, so lamee," 'Hikaru' whined quietly, sliding back into his seat.
Yoshiki chuckled quietly at 'Hikaru's comment.
"Yea.. But 's his job. He kin'a has to, idiot," Yoshiki spoke with his eyes closed.
'Hikaru' grumbled for a moment before huffing.
It was clear that he was restless due to the anticipation of being free from this hell hole as 'Hikaru' likes to say.
"Besides... don'tcha like learning?" Yoshiki adjusted his arms so he could lay his head on them.
"Yea sure, but I don't like being cramped up here, I can't focus in this small seat," 'Hikaru' whined, whisper-shouting at Yoshiki as he adjusted his posture in his own seat.
This received an annoyed glare from the teacher, much to Yoshiki's amusement.
'Hikaru' chuckled nervously and sat back in his seat as the teacher turned back towards the board.
Yoshiki smiled faintly, as strange as it sounded, he liked 'Hikaru' whining and letting out such feelings to him, even if it's just 'Hikaru' complaining to him.
As close as Hikaru and Yoshiki were, Hikaru wasn't one to talk about how he really felt, only using his feelings to make jokes or remarks.
"I'm glad you can be honest about how ya feel," Yoshiki muttered quietly, not paying much mind to what he had just said to 'Hikaru'.
'Hikaru' stared at Yoshiki for a moment before giving a genuine, warm and soft smile at Yoshiki.
That smile of 'Hikaru's flared something in him, a spark that ignited a pink flush across Yoshiki's cheeks.
Feeling the heat from his cheeks, Yoshiki buried his head into his arms which left 'Hikaru' confused.
Had I done somethin' wrong, or maybe Yoshiki's just ill.
'Hikaru' thinks he'll never understand how humans work, especially if they don't speak up about their feelings.
After a while of 'Hikaru' scribbling and doodling on his notes, the last bell rang.
'Hikaru' restrained himself from cheering out loud for that last bell that he so hoped for.
'Hikaru' began to pack his things rather quickly due to the excitement he has for the break.
As he was packing, 'Hikaru' was thinking about all the things he and Yoshiki could do over the break.
All the cool sweets they could eat.
All the baked goods they could gobble down.
'Hikaru' was so in his thoughts about the taste of these foods he was drooling, receiving strange looks from peers.
'Hikaru' nervously chuckled and cleaned the drool from his lips with his arm.
Now with a semi-clear mind, 'Hikaru' looks down and notices Yoshiki peacefully sleeping on his desk, the slow rhythm of his breathing.
'Hikaru' strangely enjoyed watching Yoshiki's back rise and fall slowly.
While watching Yoshiki, the thought popped into this head.
This felt a little pervy to enjoy watching.
"Yoshikiii.." 'Hikaru' purred softly into Yoshiki's ear, bending his back with his hands on his knees.
Yoshiki jolts up, his head hitting 'Hikaru's chin.
"Ow!" 'Hikaru' and Yoshiki hissed out in unison.
Yoshiki held the top of his head with both hands, while 'Hikaru' rubbed his chin with one hand.
"Gee Yoshiki, that hurt." 'Hikaru' whined, although having a grin and giggling slightly.
Yoshiki only muttered something before a small hiss and whimper parted from his lips.
"You okay Yoshiki? Yer not that hurt right?" 'Hikaru' rested his hand on Yoshiki's shoulder as he observed Yoshiki's head, his voice was laced with concern as he spoke.
Yoshiki pushed 'Hikaru's hand away gently before standing up.
"Yea.. 'M fine. Don't whisper in my ear like that again.." Yoshiki muttered angrily, although his face betrayed himself as it was splayed with red, hot blush.
'Hikaru' teasingly giggled with a mockingly wide, toothy grin on his face.
Yoshiki looked through his curtain bangs with a glare, seemingly angry for 'Hikaru' even acknowledging the red on his face.
"C'monnnn! Let's go alreadyy! Our summer break starts NOW!" 'Hikaru' squealed excitedly like a little kid as the classroom now sat at a population of two.
Yoshiki sighed as he was rubbing his head, smiling softly at the excited look on that was plastered onto 'Hikaru's face.
Yoshiki feels a strange adoration to 'Hikaru', unable to hold back a smile even if he tried.
"Hehe Yoshiki," 'Hikaru' purred in a teasing tone.
"Yer face seems to have gotten even redder, is the heat gettin' to ya?" 'Hikaru' teased.
Yoshiki grumbled, roughly putting his hand onto 'Hikaru's head and ruffling his snowy white hair, it would've hurt a lot more if he were an actual human.
"Ahhngah! Yoshikii!" 'Hikaru' whined as I ruffled his hair.
Yoshiki pulled my hand off 'Hikaru's head as he began smoothing out his hair back into place with a cheeky grin.
Yoshiki put his notebook into his bag, zipping it up and throwing it over his shoulder, turning around to meet 'Hikaru's eyes.
"C'mon, let's get goin'," Yoshiki spoke, putting his hand on 'Hikaru's shoulder and walking him to exit the classroom.
"We can hangout today, if you wanna." Yoshiki spoke softly as they walked out of the classroom, Yoshiki's hand retreating from 'Hikaru's shoulder and back to his side.
'Hikaru' practically beamed at Yoshiki's generous offer.
"No way really!?" 'Hikaru' spoke with joy and happiness practically pouring out of him.
"Can we go get food! And see Mince-aniki?" 'Hikaru' pleaded as he and Yoshiki walked the hallways.
"Sure, ya Dork," Yoshiki replied with a slight warm, soft smile.
'Hikaru' was practically bouncing with joy like a little kid who's gone to an amusement park for the first time, stars forming in his eyes and that toothy grin.
This sight left Yoshiki with a strange feeling bubbling in his stomach, similar to butterflies in his stomach; the same feeling he'd have for Hikaru.
Yoshiki was confused and angry with his body reacting this way towards 'Hikaru', as he's an otherworldly creature, his body shouldn't act or feel this way for 'Hikaru'.
This left Yoshiki questioning and re-evaluating his feelings for Hikaru and 'Hikaru'.
Does he actually like 'Hikaru', or is it the fact that the otherworldly being is inside his old loves body?
Does he still love Hikaru?
Has he moved on from his feelings for Hikaru?
These thoughts were profound, something that should, and is, shameful to Yoshiki.
As Yoshiki looks at 'Hikaru' and thinks about how he acts, how different he is from Hikaru.
"Yoshiki?" 'Hikaru' spoke with a confused tone as he stopped Infront of Yoshiki, startling Yoshiki out of his thoughts before he bumped into the white haired boy.
"Ya've been starin' at me for a bit, are you okay?" 'Hikaru' spoke with worry in his voice as he tilted his head to the side, looking at Yoshiki's face intensely as he looked for any sign of illness.
Yoshiki blushed out of embarrassment for being caught staring and for the worry 'Hikaru' held for him.
"'M fine, don't worry 'bout me, 'Hikaru'," Yoshiki spoke quietly and began walking, now outside in the warm summer air.
"Are you sureeee?" 'Hikaru' asked curiously and stepped forward to
"I'm sure, 'Hikaru', no need to worry about me," Yoshiki brushed 'Hikaru' off as he kept walking, his tone a mix of annoyance, frustration and embarrassment.
'Hikaru' walked quickly back to Yoshiki's side and left it at that; as they began to make their way to a nearby convenience store.
As 'Hikaru' and Yoshiki walked along the sidewalk, 'Hikaru' was lost in thoughts about Yoshiki.
'Hikaru' was curious about the black haired boy, why would he ever hang out with him if he wasn't actually Hikaru?
Yoshiki was a strange guy, too nice and maybe too accepting of his current circumstances.
Although 'Hikaru' is selfishly thankful for that side of Yoshiki for how Yoshiki treats him, kind, gentle, caring and with a strange kind of curiosity.
Mainly about what 'Hikaru' is, after Yoshiki touched 'Hikaru' and he touched Yoshiki back, Yoshiki has gotten more curious about the real 'Hikaru', the one behind the shell of its host.
And again, 'Hikaru' is selfishly thankful for the others curiosity.
When Yoshiki gets curious, they often do things that make 'Hikaru' feel indescribably good, like summer beams melting snow, being able to feel something living touching his cold, seemingly gooey form.
Being able to feel Yoshiki's warm blazing soul against him.
'Hikaru' hopes they can do some of those things again, and maybe explore things that can not only make 'Hikaru' feel good, but also make Yoshiki feel good, maybe on the same level as himself.
A way to repay Yoshiki's gentleness and willingness to learn about the real 'Hikaru'.
'Hikaru' snapped out of his thoughts as Yoshiki glanced at him nervously.
'Hikaru' realized he had been staring and quickly adverting his gaze some place else; his feet.
'Hikaru' still isn't all that used to not staring at others, especially when it comes to Yoshiki for some odd reason.
Guess it's just my curiosity in his strange mannerisms.
Oddly nervous and anxious all of the time but still brave enough to want to know and understand him, still kind and caring towards him and such a reserved but warm person.
Although the thoughts of Yoshiki were replaced by the thoughts of food, especially what he'd get at the convenience store.
Hikaru was never good at sticking to one thought and it seems that 'Hikaru' was the same.
'Hikaru' was practically salivating at the thought of eating something sweet; maybe he'll get some chocolate, or maybe something watermelon flavor, or maybe even some shaved ice.
"'Hikaru' stop drooling in public like that..." Yoshiki spoke uncomfortably, but having a small smile on his face.
"Oh, oops," 'Hikaru' muttered as Yoshiki broke his train of thought of his second favorite thing on this Earth; food.
'Hikaru' realized he had been drooling and wiped the edges of his mouth with the back of his hand.
"All better now!" 'Hikaru' spoke positively with a toothy grin on his face.
Yoshiki sighed with a small chuckle in his throat.
"Jus' don't touch me with the back of your hand, 'Hikaru'..." Yoshiki muttered skeptically with a hint of disgust in his voice.
"Don't be givin' me ideas now, Yoshiki..." 'Hikaru' spoke with a dark tone in his voice and his eyes dark with a fiendish glint, a wide toothy grin plastered on his face.
"'Hikaru'... Don't." Yoshiki warns sternly as he begins to move to his right slowly.
'Hikaru' chuckled devilishly as he began to move closer to Yoshiki, his hands now raised as if he were about to pounce onto Yoshiki.
"'Hikaru'."
"Yoshikiii.~" 'Hikaru' hummed slyly as he chuckled.
Yoshiki quickly darted and ran from 'Hikaru'.
"I'm gonna get ya, Yoshiki!" 'Hikaru' announced loudly as he laughed chasing after Yoshiki.
"'Hikaru'!" Yoshiki spoke 'Hikaru's name sternly once again, although laughing as the two ran down the block with a silly game.
'Hikaru' had been gaining on Yoshiki before jumping and wrapping his arms around Yoshiki from behind, his arms wrapped around Yoshiki's next in a small hug.
'Hikaru' giggled slyly in his victorious win in successfully catching Yoshiki.
"I gotcha! I win!" 'Hikaru' announced confidently, his tone laced with pride.
"Yeaa yeaa, ya sure did 'Hikaru'."
Yoshiki chuckled as he panted lightly.
'Hikaru' grinned with a wide and toothy smile and chuckled, also panting from the long and quick-paced run.
Yoshiki quickly got uncomfortable once realizing the state the two were in; sweaty, panting, and touching.
This realization made Yoshiki's face burn, he felt uncomfortable with himself for enjoying the contact between the two of them.
Yoshiki moved 'Hikaru's arms away from his neck, turning around and giving him an assuring smile so 'Hikaru' would know he hadn't done something wrong.
'Hikaru' just gave Yoshiki a confused look, his head tilted slightly to the side.
"Are you okay Yoshiki? Ya've been off lately.." 'Hikaru' spoke with a hint of confusion and skepticism.
Yoshiki lowered his head and looked to the side, his eyes covered by his bangs; unable to will himself to look at 'Hikaru' as he thought of an excuse.
"'M alright... You were just a bit too close is all," Yoshiki muttered as he raised his head up again, his gaze back on 'Hikaru' now.
"Oh, ah... Sorry Yoshiki," 'Hikaru' nervously apologized.
Yoshiki felt a jolt of guilt go through his body seeing the saddened and guilt-ridden expression on 'Hikaru's face.
"Nah, nothing you need to apologize for, 'Hikaru'. Don't wrap yer head 'round it, yea?" Yoshiki muttered cautiously, his body language radiating nervousness.
'Hikaru' picks up on Yoshiki's nervous mannerisms and became curious on what's going on with Yoshiki.
Is it really that fact he's a monster that's making Yoshiki nervous?
Or is there something more to it?
'Hikaru' moved closer to Yoshiki, observing Yoshiki closely as he completely forgets what personal space is.
Yoshiki stiffens as 'Hikaru's eyes observe him intensely and making his way closer to Yoshiki, his face red and sweaty.
"'Hikaru'... That's enough," Yoshiki muttered nervously as he gulped, his throat dry as he backs away slowly out of habit.
When 'Hikaru' noticed Yoshiki backing away from him, 'Hikaru' stared him in the eyes as if he were looking into his soul.
As Yoshiki felt slightly unnerved, Yoshiki hid his eyes behind his bangs as he lowered his head.
"Uh... Ya know... We're like two minutes away from the convenience store," Yoshiki spoke quietly, drawing 'Hikaru's attention away from him to the sweets he so desires.
"Oh! Yeah!" 'Hikaru's curious and unnerving demeanor melted into excited realization.
With a wide toothy grin, 'Hikaru' grabbed Yoshiki's wrist and quickly walked to the end of the block to see the convenience store.
Yoshiki's face burned slightly, such a simple and innocent touch of skin was messing with him for some reason.
What is going on with me?
"Yoshikii!" 'Hikaru' hummed all giddily, sparkles and joy practically radiating from him; too bright for Yoshiki to handle.
Yoshiki shook his thoughts away, he wants to remain in control of his thoughts and feelings.
Yoshiki closed his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath before looking at 'Hikaru'.
"C'mon 'Hikaru', let's get you somethin' sugary and chilled," Yoshiki spoke as he pat 'Hikaru's hair before opening the convenience store with a ring of a bell, keeping the door open waiting for 'Hikaru' to enter.
'Hikaru' smiled warmly, his excitement still showing but his eyes linger on Yoshiki, although Yoshiki wasn't paying much attention to 'Hikaru's antics; his attention is fully in his thoughts.
"Yoshiki, what'd ya want?" 'Hikaru' asked as he was looking at the refrigerated section of the convenience store.
Yoshiki didn't respond, but 'Hikaru' didn't pay any mind to it; Yoshiki has a habit of getting stuck in his thoughts around 'Hikaru' and he knows.
Taking advantage of this fact, 'Hikaru' snuck behind Yoshiki who was staring at one of the refrigerator doors and pinches the back of Yoshiki's neck.
Yoshiki tenses as his face flushes pink, making a noise between a whimper and a quiet yelp.
Yoshiki quickly covered his mouth as his head hung low, his eyes darting away from 'Hikaru'.
'Hikaru' hadn't expected such a reaction from Yoshiki.
"Seems I got yaaa~." 'Hikaru' purred teasingly, gloating his victory.
When Yoshiki hadn't replied to his snarky tone 'Hikaru' looked at Yoshiki who seems to be deeply embarrassed or ashamed, in a somewhat deep seeming thought.
'Hikaru' thought it was best to just leave Yoshiki be as so he wouldn't be lectured by him, focusing back onto the frozen treats Infront of him.
'Hikaru' audibly hummed in thought.
Should I try something new, or get somethin' Hikaru's had?
"Think 'll get this one..." 'Hikaru' mumbled to himself; a popsicle that was cotton candy flavor had caught his eye which looked too irresistible to ignore.
'Hikaru' grabbed popsicle in its plastic wrapper and turned around to face the still slightly nervous Yoshiki.
"Look! This looks so good don' it?" 'Hikaru' practically radiated excitement around him.
Yoshiki idly nodded slightly.
"What about you? Ya gonna get anything, Yoshiki?" 'Hikaru' hummed curiously.
"Ah.. Pro'ly just a cherry popsicle," Yoshiki muttered to himself as he walked to the refrigerator and opened the door, feeling the cold air assault his skin as he grabbed a cherry popsicle.
With a shiver, Yoshiki closed the door and turned around to face 'Hikaru' and gave him a nod.
The two walked to the counter and Yoshiki paid for both of their cold sweet treats.
After Yoshiki pays and the two walk out, 'Hikaru' quickly takes the plastic wrapper off and throws it away and practically ravages the poor popsicle, although savoring the sweet taste and the coldness mixing with the warm air.
As Yoshiki watched 'Hikaru', he sighed with a small smile pulling at his lips.
"Calm down 'Hikaru', savor it. It isn't going anywhere ya know," Yoshiki speaks with a small chuckle as they find a bench to sit on.
The two sit down next to each other as 'Hikaru' glances at Yoshiki as he bites his popsicle, chewing slightly.
"Ya know I can't hold back on sweets!" 'Hikaru' huffs playfully.
Yoshiki cringes as he hears the crunch of 'Hikaru's popsicle, Yoshiki may know he isn't Hikaru and he doesn't feel temperature as harshly but it's still something that urks him.
"Don't chew on your popsicles... Yer gonna end up making yer teeth ache and end up getting a brain freeze," Yoshiki huffs, he knows 'Hikaru' won't feel it, but still.
"Awhh, come on, Yoshiki! Yer no fun!" 'Hikaru' whined but obeyed, licking his popsicle that was now half bitten.
Yoshiki chuckles, now ripping the plastic wrapper of his popsicle putting it into his mouth as he puts the plastic wrapper next to him on the bench.
Yoshiki glances at 'Hikaru' and he does the same, giving Yoshiki a large toothy grin as there's sugar covering his lips in a messy manner.
Yoshiki sighs through his nose and looks up at the orange sky, which is now turning a light purple.
Yoshiki took his popsicle from his mouth as he noticed that it was nearing night.
"We've been hangin' for a while, geez..." Yoshiki mutters as he glanced at 'Hikaru' once again.
'Hikaru' glances at Yoshiki and looks up at the sky, seeing the orange sky which was tainted with a mix of light purple nearing dark blue.
"Mhm!" 'Hikaru' hummed with the popsicle in his mouth before taking it out.
"Time flies when I'm with you!" 'Hikaru' giggles as he looks at Yoshiki with a genuine grin.
Again, that feeling that twisted in Yoshiki's stomach, it makes him sick, nervous, scared and horrified with himself.
Yoshiki's face began to burn again as his stomach churned and butterflies formed.
Yoshiki tried to hide his warm face by looking away but 'Hikaru' caught his reddened face for the third time today.
"Yoshiki, seriously what's up with you?" 'Hikaru's voice was quiet, but loud with concern.
As Yoshiki turned his face to look at 'Hikaru', he had already made his way closer to Yoshiki, their faces inches apart.
Yoshiki's face became hotter, it felt like his face would melt off if he kept staring at 'Hikaru'.
Yoshiki looked down at his lap, his popsicle now melting and dripping down onto his hand without him noticing.
"Yoshiki, you've got me worried with that red face of yers, are ya sick or somethin'?" 'Hikaru' spoke worriedly, his breath practically on Yoshiki's ear.
This was too much for Yoshiki to process at once, he couldn't put his feelings into words and he sure as hell couldn't act on them no matter how much he wanted to.
Yoshiki groaned as he stood up, his popsicle falling down to the ground and his hand sticky with the red melted popsicle on his hand.
"Yoshiki?" 'Hikaru' hummed quietly, nervous of if he had done something to upset Yoshiki.
"I need to be alone..." Yoshiki muttered quietly, barely above a whisper.
Before 'Hikaru' knew it, Yoshiki was running.
"Yoshiki!?" 'Hikaru's voice brimmed with worry and stress as he called out Yoshiki's name.
Yoshiki didn't want to run from 'Hikaru', Yoshiki wanted to turn around, tell him how he felt, what was going through his mind, how he felt so crazy and insane, but he just couldn't stop himself from running from the confused and worried 'Hikaru'.
Yoshiki couldn't process his emotions or anything he felt, he wouldn't even know what to tell 'Hikaru' even if he got the chance.
Soon, Yoshiki reached a familiar spot.
The spot where 'Hikaru' and he would play with and feed Mince-aniki; the cautious, fat white cat.
Yoshiki huffed and sat down next to the alleyway, looking up Yoshiki realized it's getting dark out, the once orange sky covered with a dark purple layer.
Yoshiki didn't care, not now.
Yoshiki groaned as he pulled his knees towards him and wrapped his arms around his knees, putting his head onto his knees.
This was the best Yoshiki could do in his current situation, deal with his emotions next to an alleyway with night approaching.
Yoshiki felt pathetic, why did he have to run from 'Hikaru' instead of toughing his feelings out for him?
Now 'Hikaru' probably went home, worrying about Yoshiki, worried he did something wrong.
Yoshiki felt terrible for just up and leaving 'Hikaru' like that.
As Yoshiki's thoughts were eating at him and allowing himself to be beaten up by his thoughts and emotions, he let out a loud and frustrated groan.
After a few moments of silence there were fast footsteps approaching him, maybe he'd be mugged or kidnapped but he's too busy moping and drowning in his own emotions to care.
"Yoshiki!" A voice called out, their voice ragged and their breath long exasperated wheezes.
Yoshiki looked up at the voice, seeing 'Hikaru' huffing as if out of breath.
"Yoshikiii!"
The voice of 'Hikaru' huffing and calling his name out sent a shiver down his spine.
'Hikaru' glanced next to Yoshiki, sitting down next to him with a grunt and giving Yoshiki a worried glance before looking down at his lap.
'Hikaru' was visibly nervous and didn't want to push Yoshiki away again.
It hurt Yoshiki to see 'Hikaru' in such a way after he behaved so abruptly and unfairly.
"Sorry..." Yoshiki mumbled quietly.
'Hikaru' glanced up at Yoshiki.
"For ya know... runnin' away."
'Hikaru' blinked before looking back down at his own lap.
"It's alright... I'm just worried about you, Yoshiki." 'Hikaru' mumbled quietly, trying to pick his words carefully.
"I'm okay... I've just been feeling more..." Yoshiki mutters quietly before pausing, thinking about an easy way of speaking his mind.
'Hikaru' does deserve an explanation, after all.
"Differently.. towards you." Yoshiki sighed out.
'Hikaru' glanced at Yoshiki with a worried look, but before he could speak Yoshiki quickly clarified what he has meant.
"I mean, ah... In a more positive... way, I guess..." Yoshiki rushes himself quickly to prevent 'Hikaru' from overthinking any more.
"What do you mean by you guess? And what's more positive mean specifically?" 'Hikaru' questions curiously.
Of course he wouldn't get the hint and now Yoshiki has to spell it out for him.
The embarrassment was practically killing Yoshiki, his nerves were on edge and his anxiety was at an all time high.
Yoshiki could barely keep calm, let alone keep from screaming at 'Hikaru's innocence.
Yoshiki couldn't think rationally, so he did the first thought that came to his mind.
Yoshiki faced 'Hikaru' and stared at him for a moment with hesitation.
'Hikaru' glances at Yoshiki and faces him with a confused look on his face, observing Yoshiki's face for any clear emotion on him.
Yoshiki shifted his way of sitting, moving his body to face 'Hikaru', grabbing 'Hikaru's cheeks with his hands and pulling 'Hikaru's face towards his.
Yoshiki hesitated once more, but went through with the action pressing their lips together for a soft and quick kiss.
Their lips practically fit like a puzzle piece, melting into each other's soft embrace between their lips.
After a few seconds Yoshiki released 'Hikaru' from his grip and pulled away and quickly put his head on his knees with an embarrassed and loud groan.
'Hikaru' was left dazed and confused.
And left almost completely excited from the sensation.
"Oh," 'Hikaru' mumbled under his breath with a newfound understanding.
'Hikaru's throat felt dry, his face felt fuzzy and his stomach had a funny sensation that was forming by the second.
"Yoshiki—"
"We can... We can talk about this later..." Yoshiki muttered quietly.
"It's pretty late now.. Our parents are probably worried about us," Yoshiki spoke trying to sound calm and reasonable, although panic spreading in his mind because of his irrational decisions.
"Ah. Okay..." 'Hikaru' muttered out quietly, his tone accompanied by sadness and disappointment.
Yoshiki could practically feel what 'Hikaru' was feeling and it made him nervous, his throat arid and his face now pale.
"Sorry for doing that..." Yoshiki muttered nervously.
"I didn't mean to."
'Hikaru' shook his head aggressively, confusing Yoshiki's sentimental mood.
"You don't need to apologize, Yoshiki!" 'Hikaru' spoke confidently.
"I enjoyed the sensation!" 'Hikaru' beamed as he stared at Yoshiki, proceeding to lick his lips.
Yoshiki swallowed dryly, 'Hikaru's action left Yoshiki completely befuddled, terrified and somewhat excited for what's to come as the butterflies began to flutter in his stomach.
"We can.. discuss this more tomorrow," Yoshiki muttered as it felt like he swallowed a lump in his throat.
The two were buzzing with anticipation for tomorrow, but Yoshiki was hesitant, scared of these feelings that had originally only belonged to Hikaru.
'Hikaru' who wasn't trying to hide his excitement nodded enthusiastically, beaming with a sort of determination that made Yoshiki feel uneasy and weak.
Yoshiki huffed out a shake breath, grabbing 'Hikaru's wrist as they proceed to walk back towards Yoshiki's home.
"You can stay over tonight... If you want," Yoshiki mumbled quietly, not daring to look at 'Hikaru'.
"Sure! I'll tell my mum!" 'Hikaru' spoke.
Yoshiki didn't even need to look back at 'Hikaru' to tell how excited he was, the lack of hidden emotions was making Yoshiki's mind reel and want to have another nervous breakdown.
'Hikaru' called his mom and told her he'd be at Yoshiki's house, which she surprisingly allowed at such an hour.
The walk to Yoshiki's house was quiet but the emotions between the two were obvious to each other which made it hard to stay quiet, but it was somewhat calming.
After a thirty minute walk they reached Yoshiki's home.
Yoshiki sighed as he fished for his keys, letting go of 'Hikaru's hand as he unlocked the front door with a click and stepped inside.
Thankfully, his parents and little sister seem to be asleep by now, Yoshiki wouldn't have to be questioned by either of the three.
With a relaxed huff, Yoshiki nodded his head towards the stairs.
The two walked up the stairs quietly and opened Yoshiki's door and closing it behind them.
"You can take my bed, I don't mind taking the floor," Yoshiki spoke quietly due to nervousness, his voice on the edge of shattering into pieces after today.
"Or we could both sleep on the bed..." 'Hikaru' muttered under his breath in a teasing manner.
Yoshiki glanced up at 'Hikaru' with wide eyes before glaring at him with anger and embarrassment.
'Hikaru' giggled quietly at Yoshiki's reaction.
"It's not like I bite, ya've shared a bed with me beforeeee. What's different now?" 'Hikaru' hummed curiously as he tilted his head to the side.
Yoshiki huffed with a nod.
'Hikaru's reasoning was fair.
"Fine," Yoshiki muttered quietly, his voice unnaturally shakey.
'Hikaru' grinned, more overjoyed than he usually is.
Yoshiki huffed as he laid on his bed, feeling the weight shift as 'Hikaru' sat on his bed.
Yoshiki turned his back to 'Hikaru' and faced the wall as he closed his eyes, wanting to fall asleep and ignore the anxiety and anticipation circulating through his body.
Yoshiki felt another shift on his bed and the slight tremor as 'Hikaru' laid down.
There was no noise in the room except the two boys loud thoughts echoing in their heads.
Yoshiki could feel 'Hikaru' move closer to him, eventually putting his head against Yoshiki's back which made Yoshiki stiffen.
Yoshiki relaxed after a while, enjoying the comforting feelings they were both feeling, which eventually eased his mind and racing thoughts.
"Night, 'Hikaru'..." Yoshiki muttered quietly as he began to finally feel tired.
"Goodnight, Yoshiki," 'Hikaru' murmured excitedly.
After a while, the two fell asleep cuddling each other, a warm embrace between the two enjoying every second of their sleep.
