Oneshot: A Belated Christmas [HSJUMP - YamaJima]

Epilogue
When reality finally returns to him a few minutes later, Yuto stares. Maybe because no one's looking their way. Maybe because something feels off. A beat. The whole scene plays out in his memory again, and this time, he doesn’t try and stop it. A beat. “I’m dead?”
Yamada bites his lip, looks down, swings his gaze upwards until it pinpoints on Yuto, eyes happy and sad all at once. “Last year...I couldn’t push you away fast enough.” Sad. “You still owe me cake.” Happy.
Yuto groans. But he’s not in the mood to protest. “Where did you learn to kiss like that?” Pause. Yamada looks especially evil. Or at the least, calculative.
“Come on. I’ve missed you. Let’s go home.”
And, hand in hand, that’s exactly what they do.
Because now they have all the time in the world to answer all those unanswered questions. And Yamada has every intention of answering all of them. Every, single one.
