Title: Day 5 of The 12 Days of ArashiPairing: Juntoshi
Rating: PG
Genre: Fluff.
Warning: This fanfic only has one proof reader so sorry for mistakes or anything!
Disclaimer: I do not own Arashi, its members, its works/titles/lyrics/etc. All I own is the story.
Summary: Jun gets ill and ends up in hospital. Satoshi is the one that worries the most and ends up revealing his biggest secret.
Cough, cough, cough.
Is all that can be heard in the corridor as Jun walks into Arashi’s dressing room. Wearing his coat, a scarf wrapped tightly around his neck coving his mouth and nose, a woolly hat covering his ears and gloved hands holding tightly to a steaming hot paper cup.
Satoshi follows Jun in and puts his bag on his dressing table, watching Jun with a worried look.
The others just stare at Jun as he drops his bag on Masaki’s lap and sinks into the sofa with another cough and sniff.
“Jun?” Masaki asks looking at the overdressed lump on the sofa next to him, putting Jun’s bag down.
“Hmm?” Jun grunts in reply, sharp eyes glaring at Masaki.
“Are you… ok?” Masaki asks carefully. He knows Jun doesn’t do mornings well.
“Do I sound or look ok to you Ma-sa-ki?” Jun growls and then coughs again from his sore throat and chest.
“Not really.” Masaki asks pouting.
“There you go then idiot.” Jun huffs and coughs yet again.
“Jun don’t you think you should have just called in sick. We can handle today without you.” Sho says coming to sit opposite the seemingly moody Matsumoto Jun.
Jun shoots a death glare at Sho for even suggesting he ‘calls in sick’ as he said.
“Don’t mother me Sho.” Jun says getting up off the sofa, feeling a little dizzy, Satoshi steps over to hold Jun’s arm steadying him.
Jun pulls away and steps away from the shorter man. “I’m fine.” He walks into the wash room and locks the door.
All the others look at each other, except Satoshi who is looking at the wash room door with a sad and worried look.
~~~~~
Cough, cough, cough.
“Cut!” The director shouts. “Matsumoto-san are you sure you can continue like this?”
Jun nods, breathless, “I’m fine. Just go from the top please.”
Half way through filming the music video for their new single, they haven’t even gotten through the whole thing without Jun getting too breathless and stopping halfway.
“Why don’t we just take a break? We all need it.” Satoshi steps over to Jun and the director.
Jun just looks at him then to the director.
The director nods and turns around to face the staff, “10 minute break everyone!”
“Satoshi you didn’t have to step in. I’m fine.” Jun protests as Satoshi holds Jun’s arm to support him.
“Jun…” Satoshi says softly, wrapping his other arm around Jun’s waist to walk him to an empty chair on the side of the set.
Throughout the morning Jun has been snappy with the others and has already made Masaki cry twice. Sho and Kazunari are helping Masaki with the dance steps he’s still messing up, being the cause of Jun getting angry at him.
Jun’s closed his eyes after being sat into the chair trying to focus, head feeling like this going to explode with the massive headache he has.
Satoshi walks over with a cool damp cloth and cup of water.
“Jun…? You still with us…?” Satoshi asks lifting Jun’s face to look at him as he pats the sweat away from Jun’s face.
Jun nods, looking up at him. Satoshi smiles softly but frowns.
“You have a fever.” He mentions when he lets Jun take a sip of water.
“Hmm. It’s nothing.” Jun mumbles. “Let’s just get this over with and I’ll go home.” He says hearing the director call them back to the set.
“If you last that long...” Satoshi sighs as Jun walks back to the set.
~~~~~
Some hours later.
Location - Hospital - Private ward
“Please wake up Jun. Please.” Jun hears next to him, the voice soft and upset sends waves of grief down his body, but his head too fuzzy to focus.
“Jerk should’ve stayed at home.” He hears Kazunari say along with a zipping noise.
“It’s not his fault Kazu. You know what he’s like.” Sho replies.
“Tell the stubborn idiot from me that if he shows up to work tomorrow in this state, I’ll kick his ass home or back here myself, before he even walks through the door.” And with that Kazunari slams the door as he leaves the room.
“He doesn’t mean it. You know he’s as worried as we are.” Masaki whispers next to Sho.
“I just hope he wakes up soon. I’ve never seen him this ill before.” The sad voice says again.
“He will, Satoshi. Just let him rest for now, it’s the best thing for him.” Sho says and Jun feels a hand stroking his fringe away from his forehead.
“You not going home Satoshi?” Masaki says now moving around.
Satoshi shakes his head. “I’ll stay here. He’ll need someone here when he wakes and I couldn’t bear to leave him now.”
“Though you would decide to stay in the end… Just don’t stay awake all night. Get some sleep. You have to work tomorrow as well.” Sho says further away opening the door.
“And make sure you eat. Don’t want you getting ill next.” Masaki says also at the door.
“I know. Bye guys.” Satoshi says not leaving Jun’s side.
“Oyasumi Toshi-kun.” Masaki says smiling and follows Sho out of the room.
Satoshi turns his attention back to Jun and turns the cloth over that’s on Jun’s forehead.
“Get better soon please Jun. We can’t be Arashi without you.” Satoshi says in a whisper so not to wake him.
After making sure Jun is comfy and warm he settles his head on the bed next to Jun’s arm and takes Jun’s hand in his tightly.
“I love you Jun and you don’t even know it. I just wish I could have done more.” A tear rolls down his cheek.
“Just please be ok soon. I want to tell you I love you more than anything.”
Jun slips back into an unconscious sleep.
~~~~~
Early the following morning.
Location - Hospital - Private ward
Jun’s eyes flicker open to be greeted with a bright white room and lights around him. Squinting to let his eyes adjust to the light he slowly takes in his surroundings.
“Where the hell…” Jun stops feeling something gripping his hand tightly and a soft mumble from next to him.
Jun looks down to see a sleeping Satoshi holding his hand tightly mumbling in his sleep.
Jun sits up a little and looks around. An IV drip attached to his hand, various wires attaching him to monitors.
“Why am I in a hospital room?” Jun tries to remember what happen.
Another 3 hours of filming and Jun was panting, sweating and at his limit. They had only just managed to film the group section the solo and duet parts where next but Jun’s body was now fighting him.
“Matsumoto-san you’re up next with Ohno-san. Please get into places.” The staff called.
5 minutes into the duet with Satoshi and Jun’s mind goes blank. The last thing he remembers is Satoshi’s panic and grief.
“I passed out on set?!” Jun’s confused and shocked, his head beginning to hurt again.
He looks at Satoshi again and remembers the small moment he regained consciousness.
“The brat will pay for calling me a jerk like that.” He grumbles.
He feels Satoshi’s small hand grips his and Jun relaxes, smiling softly at the comfort having someone with him.
“Jun…” Satoshi mumbles and frowns in his sleep.
Jun moves his other hand to stroke his fingers over the creases on Satoshi’s forehead.
“Silly Satoshi, why didn’t you tell me sooner...?” Jun remembers the last thing he heard Satoshi say to him before he drifted off into unconsciousness.
Satoshi’s eyes flutter open slowly as he stretches, completely unaware he’s being watched.
“Morning Satoshi.” Jun says using his thumb to wipe the corner of Satoshi’s mouth where he’s dribbled in his sleep.
Satoshi jumps in shock and almost falls off his chair. “Jun?!” He says now fully awake and blushing.
“You… You’re awake?!” He finally gets out and Jun smiles and nods.
“Unless we’re both dead.” He teases and Satoshi pouts.
“We thought you were going to die.” He mumbles, making Jun look at him in shock.
“What happened Satoshi?” Jun asks comforting the worried Satoshi taking hold of his hand again. Satoshi blushes deeper and looks at their intertwined fingers.
“You collapsed on set half way through our duet. You weren’t breathing properly and went completely white. The medical team had to use CPR to get you to breathe again before the ambulance came and brought you here.” Satoshi says gripping Jun’s hand tightly looking worried and scared recalling the events Jun wasn’t aware of.
“They said you’ve got a serious chest infection, from the flu you were trying to hide from us, and it triggered an asthma attack or something.” He says moving to sit on the bed next to Jun to check the cloth on his forehead.
Jun listens in shock at the events Satoshi is telling him. He didn’t think it would have been that serious. Yes the chest pains and stuff were there but he just pushed them away and got on with work.
“All the stress and strain you’ve put on yourself the last few days, and then the filming, it all got too much and your body gave out.” Satoshi looks at Jun, who is breathing a little faster, and then to the monitor that shows Jun’s heartbeat. It’s gotten a little faster in the past few minutes.
“I’m going to stop talking now.” Satoshi says looking almost panicked realising that Jun’s getting panicked because he’s worrying him with the story.
“Sato-” Jun tries to say then feels his chest tighten and he coughs hard gripping the hospital gown in front of his chest.
“Jun. Calm down.” Satoshi moves up and rubs Jun’s back and calls the help button like he was told to in case of emergencies.
Soon a nurse runs in and upon seeing the distressed Jun she moves straight to him and takes an oxygen mask from the bedside and holds it over Jun’s mouth and nose pressing a button to start the oxygen flow.
“Can you breath better now Matsumoto-san?” The nurse says checking the monitors once Jun has seemed to have calmed.
Jun just nods, his eyes closed trying to focus on his breath. He looks at Satoshi who looks on the verge of tears.
“I’m ok Satoshi.” He manages to say.
“Ohno-san I thought I made it clear that when he woke up, you were not to distress him in any way.” The nurse says glaring at Satoshi.
“Don’t… blame him.” Jun says pulling the mask away from his face. “He didn’t do… anything wrong…” He gets out as he takes deep breaths.
“Well it doesn’t matter you need to rest. If this happens again I will ask you to leave.” The nurse walks out giving Satoshi another quick glare.
“She’s mean.” Satoshi pouts and Jun smiles and pats Satoshi’s head.
“I’m sorry I worried you again.” Jun says wiping the unshed tears from the corner of Satoshi’s eyes.
“I was terrified Jun.” Satoshi suddenly hugs Jun being careful of the wires.
“I know. I’m sorry.” Jun says letting the mask sit on his lap and carefully pulls the smaller man onto the bed and hugs him back.
After a few minutes Satoshi has calmed down, Jun stroking his head and leaning back against the pillows.
“I’ll be ok. Just a bit of rest and I’ll be back to work. Promise.” Jun reassures.
“Your chest sounds funny.” Satoshi mumbles moving off Jun.
“It does?” Jun looks confused and Satoshi nods.
“Well I do have a chest infection. If it’s anything like what Masaki got last year then I’m not surprised. My lungs are gonna be full of mucus and stuff.” Jun says smiling and stroking Satoshi’s cheek.
“You’re going to get wrinkles if you keep frowning like that.” Jun says with a breathy chuckle pushing 2 fingers against Satoshi’s forehead.
“Huh?” Satoshi looks up confused and Jun coughs when he chuckles again. “Ah Jun don’t laugh.” Satoshi moves to hold the mask to Jun’s face again.
A few seconds later, Jun’s coughing stops again. “Sorry.” He says looking apologetically at Satoshi. “Don’t want miss grumpy nurse kicking you out do we.” Jun smiles.
Satoshi smiles and relaxes knowing Jun’s feeling a little better due to his sassy side showing again.
~~~~~
“Okay that’s a wrap everyone! Thank you for the hard work.” The staff announces.
Before anything else can be said Satoshi grabs his bag and runs out of the building.
“Takeshi-san, to the hospital. Please.” Satoshi asks his driver and they set off.
He’s been spending every second of his free time at the hospital with Jun, helping him with everything, bringing him better food so he doesn’t have to eat the stuff from the hospital, even sleeping next to Jun at night to look after him.
A loving and soft atmosphere surrounding them both, or so says Masaki.
Satoshi is falling more and more for this man he’s known for over half his life and has decided that today is the day he’s going to tell Jun the truth.
~~~~~
A while later Satoshi walks into the hospital ward where Jun’s private room is.
“No I told you we need blue and green lights for his solo… No, I don’t want the platform used in that section…” Satoshi can hear Jun shouting down his phone, even before he has walked in to the room.
Satoshi smiles at the stubbornness of Arashi’s youngest member. It’s been 10 days since Jun was bought to the hospital and made to stay at least 2 weeks by his doctor, but Jun’s recovered in record time and might go home early so he’s being doing all he can with working from his hospital bed.
“That boy will never just take a break and stop.” Satoshi says to himself as he approaches Jun’s room.
Knocking but not waiting for a reply Satoshi walks into Jun’s room.
Placing his bag onto the small sofa still covered with a blanket and pillow that Satoshi has been using to sleep while he stays with Jun, Satoshi walks over to Jun and after kicking his shoes off he climbs onto the bed, straddling Jun’s lap.
Jun watches him with a curious and bemused look on his face. As Satoshi sits on his lap Jun smirks.
Satoshi unzips his coat.
“No I’m still here…” Jun watches Satoshi with an almost puzzled but excited look.
Satoshi pulls his coat off and drops into the chair next to the bed, revealing the tight black and blue suit he has been wearing for his commercial filming.
“What...?” Jun asks down the phone while Satoshi unbuttons his cuffs. “Listen… Blue and Green lights for Satoshi’s solo…” Satoshi is grinning. “No platform in Sho’s solo we’ll use the centre stage…” Satoshi loosens his tie a little opening the top button. “As for my solo, just wait till I’m back…” Satoshi bites his lip leaning closer to Jun. “…Now if you don’t mind I’m going to hang up and relax…” Jun closes his phone.
“What are you doing Satoshi?” Jun asks in a low voice.
Satoshi smiles and leans in to wrap his hands around Jun nape. “Trying to distract you from your work, for a least a few minutes, so you can rest.”
“Hmm. You know the nurse will kick you out if she finds you like this.” Jun says raising an eye brow, flirting madly with Satoshi like they have over the last week.
“I know but you won’t relax and rest without being forced to.” Satoshi replies, inching ever closer to Jun’s body.
“The doctors have said I can go home.” Jun mentions and Satoshi’s face drops.
“They did? When?” Satoshi says, letting Jun’s nape go and sitting back on Jun’s legs.
“Tonight… after my final health check. I’m all good to go back to work to, providing I don’t do anything stressful or overly active for another week or so.” Jun smiles and strokes the chubby cheek of Satoshi.
“You’ll be going home alone?” Satoshi pouts and Jun chuckles.
“You want to come back with me and continue to look after me?” Jun playfully teases.
Satoshi looks up and sees the sparkle in Jun’s eyes.
“Only if you let me sleep in your bed with you?” Satoshi looks innocently at Jun.
“I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Jun smiles and pulls Satoshi close to him, hugging him.
Satoshi smiles and takes a deep breath, “I love you Jun…”
Silence.
Jun pushes Satoshi back slightly and cups his left cheek looking into the scared baby face of his leader.
“I love you too Satoshi.” Jun softly pecks Satoshi’s lips, causing Satoshi to blush. Jun smiles wide and kisses Satoshi again lingering a little longer.
~~~~~
3 months later.
Location - Jun’s apartment.
“I still can’t believe you let them all come over.” Satoshi pouts while straddling Jun’s thighs looking down at him.
“They wanted to celebrate the end of another concert tour. It was a stressful one this time.” Jun smiles stroking one hand up Satoshi’s waist and the other stroking his cheek.
“I wanted to be alone though.” Satoshi pouts.
“So you could take advantage of me now that I’m back to full health, right?” Jun smirks knowing his leader is a little pervert.
“Well we’re alone now.” Satoshi states smiling innocently.
“That’s true. But what I still don’t get, is why you didn’t tell me the truth when you first could have.” Jun frowns.
Satoshi blushes, “I couldn’t just tell you. Masaki and Sho still hide their feelings for each other even though we all know what they do behind closed doors. But to voice how I felt from the moment I realised would have been worse.”
Jun looks confused, “How would it have been worse?”
“If I had told you then you rejected me it would get in the way of the group. I couldn’t risk Arashi.” Satoshi lays against Jun, his head on Jun’s shoulder.
“Even though those idiots already knew how you felt and we’re always pushing you towards me.” Jun chuckles softly.
Satoshi nuzzles Jun’s neck, “I’m glad I told you though.”
“Me too, I wouldn’t have this now if you hadn’t.” Jun strokes Satoshi’s head.
It’s been 3 months since Satoshi confessed to Jun and now after that years concert tour is over they can finally spend some time alone together.
“I love you Jun.” Satoshi smiles against Jun’s neck.
“Say it to my face and not my neck.” Jun demands.
Satoshi sits up and looks at Jun, blushing madly.
“You’re mean.” Satoshi pouts.
“Satoshi…” Jun says in a warning voice.
“I love you Jun” Satoshi says a kisses Jun’s lips before he can reply.
Jun hums and pulls Satoshi close against him and deepens their kiss.
~~~~~
Once snuggled up together in Jun’s bed after an exhausting and hot few hours both men are drifting off to sleep.
“Satoshi…?” Jun whispers but gets no reply.
Looking down he sees Satoshi is already fast asleep in his arms.
Jun smiles and kisses Satoshi’s head.
“I love you too Satoshi.”

“All the stress and strain you’ve put on yourself the last few days, and then the filming, it all got too much and your body gave out.” Satoshi looks at Jun, who is breathing a little faster, and then to the monitor that shows Jun’s heartbeat. It’s gotten a little faster in the past few minutes.
“I’m going to stop talking now.” Satoshi says looking almost panicked realising that Jun’s getting panicked because he’s worrying him with the story.
“Sato-” Jun tries to say then feels his chest tighten and he coughs hard gripping the hospital gown in front of his chest.
“Jun. Calm down.” Satoshi moves up and rubs Jun’s back and calls the help button like he was told to in case of emergencies.
Soon a nurse runs in and upon seeing the distressed Jun she moves straight to him and takes an oxygen mask from the bedside and holds it over Jun’s mouth and nose pressing a button to start the oxygen flow.
“Can you breath better now Matsumoto-san?” The nurse says checking the monitors once Jun has seemed to have calmed.
Jun just nods, his eyes closed trying to focus on his breath. He looks at Satoshi who looks on the verge of tears.
“I’m ok Satoshi.” He manages to say.
“Ohno-san I thought I made it clear that when he woke up, you were not to distress him in any way.” The nurse says glaring at Satoshi.
“Don’t… blame him.” Jun says pulling the mask away from his face. “He didn’t do… anything wrong…” He gets out as he takes deep breaths.
“Well it doesn’t matter you need to rest. If this happens again I will ask you to leave.” The nurse walks out giving Satoshi another quick glare.
“She’s mean.” Satoshi pouts and Jun smiles and pats Satoshi’s head.
“I’m sorry I worried you again.” Jun says wiping the unshed tears from the corner of Satoshi’s eyes.

After a few minutes Satoshi has calmed down, Jun stroking his head and leaning back against the pillows.
“I’ll be ok. Just a bit of rest and I’ll be back to work. Promise.” Jun reassures.
“Your chest sounds funny.” Satoshi mumbles moving off Jun.
“It does?” Jun looks confused and Satoshi nods.
“Well I do have a chest infection. If it’s anything like what Masaki got last year then I’m not surprised. My lungs are gonna be full of mucus and stuff.” Jun says smiling and stroking Satoshi’s cheek.
“You’re going to get wrinkles if you keep frowning like that.” Jun says with a breathy chuckle pushing 2 fingers against Satoshi’s forehead.

A few seconds later, Jun’s coughing stops again. “Sorry.” He says looking apologetically at Satoshi. “Don’t want miss grumpy nurse kicking you out do we.” Jun smiles.
Satoshi smiles and relaxes knowing Jun’s feeling a little better due to his sassy side showing again.
~~~~~
“Okay that’s a wrap everyone! Thank you for the hard work.” The staff announces.
Before anything else can be said Satoshi grabs his bag and runs out of the building.
“Takeshi-san, to the hospital. Please.” Satoshi asks his driver and they set off.
He’s been spending every second of his free time at the hospital with Jun, helping him with everything, bringing him better food so he doesn’t have to eat the stuff from the hospital, even sleeping next to Jun at night to look after him.
A loving and soft atmosphere surrounding them both, or so says Masaki.
Satoshi is falling more and more for this man he’s known for over half his life and has decided that today is the day he’s going to tell Jun the truth.

A while later Satoshi walks into the hospital ward where Jun’s private room is.
“No I told you we need blue and green lights for his solo… No, I don’t want the platform used in that section…” Satoshi can hear Jun shouting down his phone, even before he has walked in to the room.
Satoshi smiles at the stubbornness of Arashi’s youngest member. It’s been 10 days since Jun was bought to the hospital and made to stay at least 2 weeks by his doctor, but Jun’s recovered in record time and might go home early so he’s being doing all he can with working from his hospital bed.
“That boy will never just take a break and stop.” Satoshi says to himself as he approaches Jun’s room.
Knocking but not waiting for a reply Satoshi walks into Jun’s room.
Placing his bag onto the small sofa still covered with a blanket and pillow that Satoshi has been using to sleep while he stays with Jun, Satoshi walks over to Jun and after kicking his shoes off he climbs onto the bed, straddling Jun’s lap.
Jun watches him with a curious and bemused look on his face. As Satoshi sits on his lap Jun smirks.
Satoshi unzips his coat.
“No I’m still here…” Jun watches Satoshi with an almost puzzled but excited look.
Satoshi pulls his coat off and drops into the chair next to the bed, revealing the tight black and blue suit he has been wearing for his commercial filming.
“What...?” Jun asks down the phone while Satoshi unbuttons his cuffs. “Listen… Blue and Green lights for Satoshi’s solo…” Satoshi is grinning. “No platform in Sho’s solo we’ll use the centre stage…” Satoshi loosens his tie a little opening the top button. “As for my solo, just wait till I’m back…” Satoshi bites his lip leaning closer to Jun. “…Now if you don’t mind I’m going to hang up and relax…” Jun closes his phone.
“What are you doing Satoshi?” Jun asks in a low voice.
Satoshi smiles and leans in to wrap his hands around Jun nape. “Trying to distract you from your work, for a least a few minutes, so you can rest.”
“Hmm. You know the nurse will kick you out if she finds you like this.” Jun says raising an eye brow, flirting madly with Satoshi like they have over the last week.
“I know but you won’t relax and rest without being forced to.” Satoshi replies, inching ever closer to Jun’s body.
“The doctors have said I can go home.” Jun mentions and Satoshi’s face drops.
“They did? When?” Satoshi says, letting Jun’s nape go and sitting back on Jun’s legs.
“Tonight… after my final health check. I’m all good to go back to work to, providing I don’t do anything stressful or overly active for another week or so.” Jun smiles and strokes the chubby cheek of Satoshi.
“You’ll be going home alone?” Satoshi pouts and Jun chuckles.
“You want to come back with me and continue to look after me?” Jun playfully teases.
Satoshi looks up and sees the sparkle in Jun’s eyes.
“Only if you let me sleep in your bed with you?” Satoshi looks innocently at Jun.
“I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Jun smiles and pulls Satoshi close to him, hugging him.
Satoshi smiles and takes a deep breath, “I love you Jun…”
Silence.
Jun pushes Satoshi back slightly and cups his left cheek looking into the scared baby face of his leader.
“I love you too Satoshi.” Jun softly pecks Satoshi’s lips, causing Satoshi to blush. Jun smiles wide and kisses Satoshi again lingering a little longer.
~~~~~
3 months later.
Location - Jun’s apartment.
“I still can’t believe you let them all come over.” Satoshi pouts while straddling Jun’s thighs looking down at him.
“They wanted to celebrate the end of another concert tour. It was a stressful one this time.” Jun smiles stroking one hand up Satoshi’s waist and the other stroking his cheek.
“I wanted to be alone though.” Satoshi pouts.
“So you could take advantage of me now that I’m back to full health, right?” Jun smirks knowing his leader is a little pervert.
“Well we’re alone now.” Satoshi states smiling innocently.
“That’s true. But what I still don’t get, is why you didn’t tell me the truth when you first could have.” Jun frowns.
Satoshi blushes, “I couldn’t just tell you. Masaki and Sho still hide their feelings for each other even though we all know what they do behind closed doors. But to voice how I felt from the moment I realised would have been worse.”
Jun looks confused, “How would it have been worse?”
“If I had told you then you rejected me it would get in the way of the group. I couldn’t risk Arashi.” Satoshi lays against Jun, his head on Jun’s shoulder.
“Even though those idiots already knew how you felt and we’re always pushing you towards me.” Jun chuckles softly.
Satoshi nuzzles Jun’s neck, “I’m glad I told you though.”
“Me too, I wouldn’t have this now if you hadn’t.” Jun strokes Satoshi’s head.
It’s been 3 months since Satoshi confessed to Jun and now after that years concert tour is over they can finally spend some time alone together.
“I love you Jun.” Satoshi smiles against Jun’s neck.
“Say it to my face and not my neck.” Jun demands.
Satoshi sits up and looks at Jun, blushing madly.
“You’re mean.” Satoshi pouts.
“Satoshi…” Jun says in a warning voice.
“I love you Jun” Satoshi says a kisses Jun’s lips before he can reply.
Jun hums and pulls Satoshi close against him and deepens their kiss.
~~~~~
Once snuggled up together in Jun’s bed after an exhausting and hot few hours both men are drifting off to sleep.
“Satoshi…?” Jun whispers but gets no reply.
Looking down he sees Satoshi is already fast asleep in his arms.
Jun smiles and kisses Satoshi’s head.
“I love you too Satoshi.”
