First, I'm really sorry that I didn't comment the day this was posted. I was totally blown away and had to think hard to come up with the appropriate way to thank you, because my first instinct was to heart-spam you, which would have been altogether very obnoxious.

This is basically a fic that had me at hello. When I saw the title, I was already smiling and anticipating something brilliant, which was totally what I got. And then there was the comparison between Atobe and Tezuka's family, which was thorough and thoughtful and exactly the way I see it. In general, I appreciated greatly how much you involved the boys' families, so props to you for that. <3

"You're speeding," Tezuka pointed out calmly, though his hands gripped at the door until his knuckles were white.

I ADORED this scene. In my head, I could almost see Atobe driving like a teenager and Tezuka being all disapproving and about it. The dialogue was so realistic and the characterisation rich throughout that I was absolutely squealing with delight. :D

"Diamonds are a girl's best friend," responded Atobe with a chuckle.

"You must have a lot of friends."

AHAHAHA. OH TEZUKA. Atobe with an earring = ☆☆☆☆☆

Tezuka himself was quiet, as ever, but his body did all the talking for him.

The way the smut came together was exactly what I was looking for: inexplicit but so, so sexy. You didn't state all their feelings because you didn't need to, since all the details did the talking. And that was more than enough. I enjoyed how mature the writing was here a lot.

He is lonely; the top of the world is a lonely place to be when you are the only one there.

But when you do state things plainly like this, it's heart-breaking in a wonderful way. ;__;

Atobe looks toward Tezuka, to a face he has practically memorized over the past decade even as it has changed and matured. "Why don't you come home with me," he suggests. "I'll let you drive the Jaguar."

"No," Tezuka says firmly, but he is smiling.

This is a pretty perfect way to end this fic. :D It doesn't set a bunch of limits on the future, but it leaves me hopeful and happy.

Thank you so much for writing this for me! I'm really, really touched. When reveals are up, I'm going to have to thank you properly. :)
