Rating: G
Warnings: unbridled fluff
Summary: Ruka reminisces about his first encounter with Sakito.
“…Okay, I give up. What is it?” I was relatively sure I was holding the thing upside down or sideways or that it was going to explode. Sakito waited, excited and expectant, for me to approve of his new purchase. How could I like something when I didn’t even know what the bloody hell it was?
He looked slightly crestfallen that I didn’t share his enthusiasm. Returning it to his own hands, Sakito opened the dome, which turned out to be a lid. That made sense, I guess. “It’s a travel case. For make-up and….”
My sudden amusement must have been plastered all over my face, because he stopped and gave me a condescending stare. “What’s so funny?”
“Nothing...” I was tempted to keep it to myself, but Sakito didn’t seem appeased. “I was just remembering how often you used to loose your old ones.”
“Oh…” Now that he knew, Sakito seemed far less interested. I smirked and stretched out my legs to the table, earning a frown of disapproval, but also a warm body in my lap as he curled up to examine his new precious from all angles. His slender hands traced the curve of the dome curiously, opening and shutting the lid multiple times. The case itself was nothing special, I thought, but it was worth watching Sakito’s behavior. He was adorable when engrossed.
“That’s how we first met, you know.” I watched him with a ghost of a smile, gaze roaming over his elegant neck, supple shoulders, and down the little slope of his spine. It was a completely chance encounter, but one day I would never forget. The day I started believing in love at first sight.
“Is it?” I got the distinct feeling Sakito wasn’t actually listening. I kept talking anyway, more for personal reminiscence than conversation.
“You lost your make-up kit backstage. You were such a mess that night,” I laughed quietly. “I let you use mine out of pity.”
Sakito put his new case down and looked at me. “I remember that night. Nightmare was opening for Luinspear. I was…upset because that was a brand new make-up kit, ne? Before I had to sneak out with my mother’s….” He smiled, a little embarrassed.
“That’s right.” I laughed more openly and ruffled his hair, smoothing it down again and trailing my hand to his face. “You never asked why I left to join you so willingly.”
Now he was truly intrigued. I held his full attention; that was a rare treat. “I have wondered sometimes.”
“Well…” I began, scratching my chin with the hand that wasn’t idling on Sakito’s waist. “I couldn’t stand not being around you after that night. Jui didn’t really want to loose me, but he’s a hopeless romantic at heart.”
He wasn’t exactly shocked, but definitely on the extreme side of surprised. “You…you’ve been…”
“In love with you since the beginning?” I offered to his stuttering. Waiting years for him to notice me as more than just a band member was excruciating, but I was patient and it paid off. “Yes.”
“I’m sorry, Satoru. I had no idea….” Sakito sat up, kissing me softly on the cheek as his arm wound around my neck. “But I’ll try to make it up to you.”
