Summary: Yuya is in love with his childhood friend Akihiko that is a notorious player. However, their lives will change when Minakawa Kozue begins in their class.
Notes: This is a spin-off to my fic Heavenly Creatures but it can be read even without reading HC first.
Yuya rubbed his bleary eyes with the back of his hand and sighed as, on yet another day, he went out of his house to walk to school. Another day of hopelessly yearning for something that he could never have… hopelessly yearning for someone that would tell him of the latest one of his conquests.
Akihiko greeted him with that trademark smirk of his and got up from his leaning position against the school wall to walk up to him. As always, Yuya’s heart went wild every time Akihiko was near him and he had to fight a blush.
“Morning, Yuya”, Akihiko said with a voice that was slightly rough from a night’s sleep and lack of use.
Shivers surged through Yuya’s body but he fought to look calm, “Good morning, Akihiko, had a good time last night?”
Akihiko grinned and put his arm around Yuya’s shoulder as they walked inside the school, “You bet I did! Man, she was hot.”
Yuya revelled in being so close to Akihiko and having the boy’s scent surrounding him but his heart ached at Akihiko’s words. It was always the same story.
“But you won’t see her again, right?”
“What would be the point of that?” Akihiko asked. “I’ve already had her once.”
Yuya winced, “Yeah, of course, how stupid of me”, he said bitterly but Akihiko didn’t seem to notice.
Akihiko released his grip on Yuya as they went their separate ways to get their shoes from their lockers and then they met up again to walk to the classroom together. It was like it had always been; they’d been friends even before they could walk or speak. The feelings had been burning inside of Yuya for as long as he could remember and also for as long as he could remember, Akihiko had been a playboy, always flirting with girls and then dumping them when it suited him.
“Good morning, Akihiko!” the other boys from the class greeted the boy and the girls giggled while Yuya silently walked to his seat.
“So you’re still hanging out with your girlfriend”, one of the boys, Sosuke, teasingly said to Akihiko and glanced at Yuya who blushed and hid his face behind his long hair.
“He’s not my girlfriend”, Akihiko said and rolled his eyes but he grinned and looked at Yuya, winking.
Yuya’s face burned and he quickly brought out a book and pretended to read. He read the same line over and over again but his mind didn’t register what the words meant. Why did Akihiko have to do things like that? Winking, putting his arm around Yuya’s shoulder, being affectionate when they were in private… Didn’t he know what he was doing to Yuya? Surely he must’ve guessed by now.
The teacher arrived and everyone took their seats. Akihiko’s seat was right next to Yuya’s. He leaned over and Yuya glanced at him, wondering what he was doing.
“Hey Yuya”, Akihiko whispered and Yuya looked at him questioningly. “Are you free tonight?”
“Yeah, I am”, Yuya said, frowning slightly. “Why do you ask?”
“Can I hang out at your place?”
Butterflies fluttered in Yuya’s stomach and he smiled, “Of course, you know that you’re always welcome.”
“You’re the best”, Akihiko grinned and straightened up in his seat.
Yuya was unable to focus on what the teacher said during that entire lesson and he kept daydreaming about what he could do with Akihiko that afternoon. A dreamy smile adorned his features and he didn’t notice that Akihiko was glancing at him with a raised eyebrow.
***
Yuya squeaked in surprise when someone suddenly hugged him from behind while he was on his way home.
“You forgot about me”, Akihiko said in a whining tone and Yuya glanced over his shoulder.
“No, I just thought that you had forgotten about me when you stayed to flirt with that girl”, he replied. “I didn’t want to wait for you forever.”
The words struck a chord inside of him and he looked down at the ground with a somewhat sad expression on his face. Akihiko didn’t seem to notice, as usual, and released Yuya from the embrace to walk side by side with him instead.
“Sorry but she was kind of cute”, Akihiko shrugged. “But I wouldn’t blow you off like that. Don’t you trust me?”
Yuya looked at Akihiko with a raised eyebrow and started thinking about the times the other actually had blew him off, making Akihiko look guilty.
“Oh… sorry.”
Yuya sighed, “It’s fine… So what do you want to do tonight?”
“Nothing special”, Akihiko said with a thoughtful expression. “Just… hang out and talk I guess.”
“Let me guess”, Yuya said and smiled playfully. “You want me to cook for you as well.”
“You know me too well”, Akihiko grinned and Yuya sighed.
That I do.
They arrived at Yuya’s apartment and Akihiko immediately settled down on the couch as if he lived there. It was true that Akihiko spent a lot of time at Yuya’s place.
Yuya lived alone since his parents travelled a lot but they paid for all of his living expenses. Akihiko seemed to think of the apartment as somewhere he could be undisturbed. Yuya didn’t know the reason why but Akihiko didn’t like to be in his own home.
“What do you want for dinner?” Yuya asked while putting on an apron and then putting his hair up in a cute ponytail.
“Anything is fine”, Akihiko replied with a shrug. “Your cooking always tastes great.”
Yuya blushed and quickly escaped into the kitchen where he started cooking and he heard voices from the living room as Akihiko switched on the TV. He smiled and hummed to himself as he cooked; it was somehow so domestic and he found himself dreaming about a married life together with Akihiko.
“Stop it”, he muttered to himself and frowned. “You’re not a girl.”
“You sure look like one though.”
Yuya jumped and turned to face the door opening where Akihiko stood with a huge grin on his face.
“Aki, you scared me!” Yuya admonished the other boy.
“Sorry”, Akihiko said and walked to stand beside Yuya, looking at what he was doing. “What were you muttering about anyway?”
Yuya blushed, “Nothing, absolutely nothing.”
Akihiko raised an eyebrow but he didn’t press the matter any further. Instead, he took a deep breath to inhale the scent of the food, “It smells really great. What would I do without you?”
“You probably wouldn’t be so fat without me”, Yuya said with a smirk and Akihiko pouted.
“Hey, I’m not fat!”
“Sure”, Yuya said but he was smirking and Akihiko started tickling him.
Yuya tried backing away but Akihiko followed him. They ended up in the living room where Yuya fell down backwards on the couch and Akihiko landed on top of him. Yuya was breathless from laughing too much and Akihiko was grinning devilishly. The light haired boy’s breath hitched when he looked up at Akihiko that was so close to him.
“Admit that I’m not fat”, Akihiko said and Yuya blinked; he’d almost forgotten the reason to why they’d ended up like that.
“Fine, you’re not fat”, Yuya said and his voice was hardly more than a whisper.
Akihiko got up from the couch and Yuya stood up on slightly trembling legs to go to the kitchen and save the food from burning. Soon they sat at the table with plates filled with food in front of them.
“It’s delicious as always”, Akihiko said and he practically moaned as he ate.
The sounds were making Yuya feel very hot and he had a hard time swallowing his food. Akihiko noticed this and frowned.
“Is there something wrong? Why are you not eating?”
“Nothing’s wrong”, Yuya said and smiled weakly.
“You have to eat properly, you’re too thin”, Akihiko said and took a piece of meat with his chopsticks and held it out to Yuya. “Open your mouth.”
Yuya stared at Akihiko; what was the boy doing? Was he really going to feed him? Yuya hesitantly opened his mouth and wrapped his lips around the chopsticks, taking the meat.
Indirect kiss, Yuya thought and blushed.
“There you go”, Akihiko said and grinned. “Isn’t it good?”
Yuya nodded and slowly chewed the meat; of course it was good since he’d cooked it himself. He didn’t say anything to Akihiko though since the boy looked so happy. Akihiko kept feeding Yuya, now taking food from Yuya’s own plate to feed him with but still using his own chopsticks. The chopsticks were warm and slightly wet and Yuya thought that they tasted like wood and love.
After they had finished eating, they sat in the couch and watched some random show on TV. There was barely any space between them and Yuya glanced at Akihiko’s face that was illuminated by the soft glow from the TV. Akihiko’s lips were quirked upwards since he apparently thought that the show was amusing.
Why does he have to look so perfect? Yuya thought. He’s like a god… if only I could have the courage to reach out and touch him.
Akihiko chose that moment to stretch his arms above his head; the shirt he was wearing lifted slightly and showed a peek of his toned abdomen. When he was done stretching he put his arm around Yuya’s shoulders and gave him a small smile. Yuya’s heart was beating fast and he was sure that his face was bright red but Akihiko didn’t seem to notice anything. The boy wasn’t the most perceptive person though.
“Yuya, can I spend the night here?” Akihiko asked suddenly and Yuya stared at him.
“But don’t you have to tell your parents?” Yuya asked. “And what about… you know, a change of…” he trailed out and blushed.
“They won’t care”, Akihiko replied. “And I have clean boxers packed in my bag.”
“You planned this”, Yuya said, almost accusingly.
“Do you mind?”
Yuya shook his head and Akihiko wrapped his free arm around Yuya’s waist, embracing him.
“Thanks Yuya, you’re the best.”
Yuya leaned his head against Akihiko’s shoulder and smiled contently. His heart felt like it was bouncing around in his stomach and in its place a butterfly was fluttering in his chest. They sat like that for a long time and Yuya must’ve fallen asleep because when he opened his eyes he was lying in bed, wearing only his underwear. He blinked confusedly and looked around, finding that Akihiko was lying next to him in bed.
Akihiko’s face looked completely peaceful and he was breathing deeply, obviously asleep. His beauty was overwhelming and Yuya carefully reached a hand out and caressed his cheek. Akihiko leaned into Yuya’s touch and then Yuya did something that he’d always dreamt of doing: he leaned in and brushed his lips against Akihiko’s. The dark haired boy sighed in his sleep and snuggled closer to Yuya who felt like he was in heaven.
Yuya leaned his forehead against Akihiko’s and he put one of his arms around Akihiko’s waist. Akihiko mumbled something in his sleep but it was too low for Yuya to hear. He stared at Akihiko’s face for a long time before he finally fell asleep and dreamed of marrying Akihiko and having his kids. Yuya wasn’t sure if it was a good dream or a nightmare.
***
Akihiko and Yuya walked to school in silence the next morning. Yuya couldn’t believe that he’d actually kissed Akihiko and he couldn’t look at the taller boy without blushing. Akihiko seemed to be thinking about something as he was frowning and biting his lip.
They did their morning routine and sat down by their desks in the classroom. Sosuke said his usual comment about Yuya being Akihiko’s girlfriend and Yuya blushed as usual. It was like any other day but it was the day when everything would change. It was the day when Akihiko would give up his playboy ways.
“Good morning class”, the teacher said as she walked into the classroom. “We have a new student beginning in this class today; please give her a warm welcome.”
One of the prettiest girls Yuya had ever seen walked into the classroom and bowed slightly before she gave the class a brilliant smile. Her hair was long and wavy and it shone like a raven’s feathers. She had large pretty eyes and a small catlike mouth. Her skin was practically flawless.
“My name is Minakawa Kozue, it’s nice to meet you”, she said with the sweetest voice imaginable.
“I have to have her”, Akihiko whispered and Yuya looked at him.
It was normal for Akihiko to say something like that but this time it hurt Yuya all the more because the look in Akihiko’s eyes was not the look of a predator eying its prey; it was adoration.
