Yeah so it's been a while ^^;; But with the tireless encouragement of my dear muse, work resumed on this story! And I'm happy to report that this part is NSFW! :O

( As it happens, things seem much easier, much more relaxed )

( The week passes quickly for Subaru )

( He tells Yasu to expect him at 7, and spends the whole day trying to ignore the tingle of nervousness he feels in his stomach )

( He sleeps lightly, and when he wakes up he feels like it was part of another life. )

( 'Isn’t it your birthday sometime around now?' )

It's been a long time, hasn't it? :S I took a break, intending to write loads of uni stuff instead - did I buggery lol. Well, I hope this is worth it after 6 months! >_<

( Subaru doesn’t want to be caught out here when his friends leave Yasu’s flat )

( 'Is Yasu not coming back?' )

( Ryo is still staring at Yasu like he can’t believe his eyes. )

( That night in bed Subaru is wide awake. )

ALERT ALERT!! DEVELOPMENTS AFOOT! VERY IMPORTANT ONES! :O :O :O Lol it only took two and a half years. >.> Tbh I've been feeling a bit of writer's block so I hope it's worth the wait :S

( They swim in the sea and go to the mainland to sing karaoke )
