rikke_leonhart . Because of a birthday, but mostly because I just love her so much. It's been a while since I last wrote so forgive me any mistakes and the general stiffness.
It's raining. <3
Wet footsteps approached the door. A man digging through his dribbling jacket pockets was forming small puddles with every step. It was proving kind of hard to find keys when clothes were stuck to the skin and pockets refused to operate as pockets should.
Every piece of fabric on him was throughly wet and dribbling, and there were little droplets of water running on his forehead where the disarrayed strands of hair had dropped them. The droplets were slowly building momentum, gathering together to form a bigger river and then sliding down the convenient slope of his nose. The man finally managed to fish a string of keys from somewhere deep within his inner left pocket and he celebrated it by victoriously wiping an equally wet hand across his face to stop a huge droplet, just as it was hanging from the tip of his nose.
He opened the door and stepped in to the warmth, colours, smells and feel of Home. All his senses were filled with things all translatable as simply security and comfort and love. Pronouncing every syllable with care and tasting them as they rolled from his tongue, he announced "I'm home," just to hear it ring through the silence. It was still a new thing, a new place to say it to. There were still unpacked boxes laying around the entry with labels like 'winter-clothes' and 'books - living room', but they didn't make it any less of a Home.
What he wasn't expecting, was an answer.
"Well, finally," came from somewhere inside the Home. He took a step towards the sound but moving made him realise how throughoutly he still was wet, and he decided he didn't want Home to be wet too. "Nino?" he called out instead and thought how fast the other must have been to reach Home first.
"Yes dear?" Nino replied immediately. His voice was a little distracted and had an amused quirk to it. He imagined Nino playing with his cards or his games curled up on their bright-blue new sofa, so immersed in his actions that it would take an effort to get even a simple welcome kiss from him. There would always be that little gleam in Nino's eyes, and a twist in his smile that had been so apparent in his voice just now. He often felt like just kissing that twisted bit and watching it turn to reflect a whole new emotion.
"Nino...it was raining," he finally decided to share while bending over to pull his boots off.
"Was it now?"
He imagined a lazy smile spreading on Nino's face and reach his eyes and make them say thousand things all at once. He pealed the jacked off. "It was...and Nino?" Jeans made a wet thud when they hit the floor.
"What is it Oh-chan?"
"I'm really wet," he said with a muffled tone as the t-shirt got momentarily stuck sliding past his ears. What he saw when emerging behind the wet fabric, was his boyfriend leaning against the door frame.
"I figured you would be. That's why I dug out the extra blankets your mom packed, with extra care and duct tape, I might add. I'm also boiling some water now, so hurry up and take a shower and I'll get the tea ready when you're back. And, Oh-chan," he added when Ohno made a move to leave for bathroom, "make sure to take those wet clothes with you, I don't want them ruining our floor."
Notes for flist:
Ah domesticated Ohmiya~ doesn't it just make you happy? o^__ ^o
I was wrong about not being busy with school anymore, infact I have more things to do than before the presentation. D: I'm sorry, a thousand times, for not being able to answer basically any comments or posts. I'll try my best, but I have huge amounts of work before Christmas. So..feel free to not comment here, since I can't promise an answer any time soon! ;;__;;
I love you guys, just the image of this fandom and flist existing keeps me alive at school. <3
Okay, one last thing: I've been meaning to ask everyone's addresses for Christmas cards. Anyone wishing to get one should probably give me a PM. If I got your address last year, don't expect me to have it anymore, me being the airhead that I am, so. PM me? ^^;
