Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot.
A/N: I’ve thought about writing something like this for over a year, and I finally started a couple of months ago, but it was hard to finish it so I didn’t manage doing it until now. I still think that I could have done a better job but this will have to do. Maybe I write another version some other time. Also I'm sorry for any misspellings or grammar mistakes. Another thing, in this I imagine Jin being 19 and Kame 17.
I hope you all will enjoy reading this :)
Jin woke up to the sound of someone or something making its way across the wooden floor in the room he was sharing with Yuya and Kazuya while he was on summer vacation by the sea with the Kamenashi family. He slowly opened his eyes to look after what it was that had made him wake up and was surprised to see Kazuya sneak out through the door and close it carefully behind. Jin reached out for his phone on the night stand situated between his and Yuya’s bed to see what time it was. He frowned slightly at the early hour the clock showed and then put the phone back again. Why was Kazuya up this early? Jin choked a yawn as he got up from his own bed to follow the younger boy and find out what he was up to.
Jin reached the lower half of the stairs just in time to hear the front door close shut. This made Jin’s curiosity grow bigger. As quickly he could without making too much noise he followed Kame outside. The other had already closed the garden gate and started walking down the path leading to the sea when Jin caught sight of him again.
Jin made sure not to get caught by Kame as he followed him and every now and then he would jump in and hide behind one of the few trees that were growing along the path. It took about 10 minutes for them to reach the beach; it would’ve taken 5 if Kame hadn’t made so many stops along the way to smell the flowers growing alongside the trail.
Once down in the sand Kame stopped again and just stared out over the ocean. Jin stopped as well but meters away, hiding behind a big old tree that was located just where the grass from the meadow and the sand met. He kneeled down on the ground and peered out from behind the trunk to keep on watching Kame. The other stood completely still for a moment before he surprised Jin by pulling his t-shirt up over his head and discarding it on the ground. He then turned his head around and threw a glance at his surroundings him. Jin quickly moved his head behind the tree so to not get caught spying. When Jin had braved himself enough to look again he got the surprise of a lifetime.
Kame had taken off his underwear and thrown them on top of his t-shirt lying in the sand. Jin gulped and quickly turned his head away from the sight only to a second later gaze back at Kame. It wasn’t the first time Jin saw Kame naked. He had seen him countless of times in the shower rooms after work and dance rehearsals. This was a completely different context. Kame’s naked body seemed to be glowing with the way the early morning sunlight was illuminating his fair skin.
Of course Jin had always known that Kame had a special kind of beauty about him. A beauty that sometimes could be hard to notice at first but he was sure than anyone, male or female, young or old would think that this sight was breathtaking. In Jin’s opinion Kame had never looked more innocent yet erotic as he did in that very moment.
However that might have been because Jin had never during their five years of friendship thought about Kame as sexy. Kame had simply been Kame. He was the baseball loving kid with a pretty face, weird sense of humour and one of Jin’s best friends. That image completely changed now though into the baseball loving kid with a pretty face, beautiful body and-
Jin couldn’t help but think about how it would feel to run his hands down Kame’s glowing body. His skin looked so warm and smooth in the sunlight. Jin gulped again and felt how something stirred inside of him.
Kame looked around him again, twisting his upper body around and Jin just barely managed to hide himself. When Jin dared to peek out again he saw that Kame had already walked down into the sea until the water was reaching up to his waist. Jin looked in fascination as Kame reached out his arms to the sides and lifted his head so that his face met the sun, before he in one quick and graceful movement dived into the water.
Jin got up on his feet slowly, unconsciously realizing that this was his chance to get back into his bed before Kame noticed him. He backed away, eyes still glued on Kame who was now swimming and diving freely in the blue waves before he turned around and started running. He ran as fast as he could while scowling at himself for what he had done. There was no way that he would be able to act like normal around Kame now.
If Kame noticed anything weird in Jin’s behaviour that day he didn’t comment on it but Jin couldn’t help but think about Kame naked the whole time. It was really disturbing and he felt disgusted with himself especially since he was surrounded by Kame’s family. It didn’t stop him however from waking up the next morning when he once again heard the sound of soft foot steps against the wooden floor. And it didn’t stop him from following Kame again and watch him take his early morning swim.
The same thing happened the day after that, and after that and throughout the whole week.
The last morning of their week by the sea was no exception but somehow Jin felt that something else was up with Kame that morning. The aura was slightly different, but in a good way and it somehow made Jin not feel all too bad for spying on Kame. Kame was walking quicker than usual as well. He was almost skipping as he walked down the trail leading to the sea.
Jin hide behind the same tree that had protected him the previous days when they finally reached their destination and sat down on the ground to watch Kame strip down. As Kame pulled his shirt over his head Jin felt how he was slowly starting to get aroused. It was not the first time that week but that didn’t make him feel any less ashamed. He was happy that this was the last day and that when they were back in Tokyo again he would get distracted by work and friends. And hopefully he would manage to forget about how beautiful Kame looked when the sun hit his naked body.
Jin sighed deeply and got back on his feet. He really shouldn’t be there. It was bad enough that he had been there the whole week. He took a step back from the tree and a loud sound of a twig rang out through the otherwise almost silent morning. Jin froze in place and prayed that Kame hadn’t heard it. He wasn’t that lucky. Kame had heard and twisted his body around in the direction of the sound. Their eyes met. Jin gulped and quickly closed his eyes. If he was going to die now then he did not want Kame’s angry face to be the last thing he saw.
Seconds, maybe minutes passed and nothing happened. Kame didn’t say a word but Jin could feel the other’s eyes on him and it was nerve wrecking. Why didn’t Kame run up and beat him to a pulp? Or at least why didn’t he start shouting and cursing Jin for being such a perverted person and telling him to go to hell? That should be the right way to react, right? Jin still didn’t dare to open his eyes until he heard sound of Kame suddenly laughing loudly and then his eyes flew open. Jin had not expected Kame to laugh in this situation. Why was he laughing?
Jin was just about to ask when Kame abruptly stopped laughing and sat down in the sand and rested his arms on top of his knees. His eyes were still focused on Jin and a smile was still present on his face. Jin opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out. What should he say in this surreal situation? Kame was sitting just meters away, stark naked and totally unbothered that Jin could see every part of his body. Jin closed his mouth again and they both stayed completely silent for a while until Kame decided to break it.
“The sun is nice huh?” he asked taking his eyes of Jin and tilting his head to face the sky. Jin just nodded in lack of a better reply and they fell silent again.
“You’ve watched me every day haven’t you?” Kame spoke again and once again looked over at Jin, who nodded again. It was no use in lying when he had gotten caught already. “Why didn’t you join me? I wouldn’t have been bothered you know. I’ve seen you naked plenty of times”
Jin didn’t reply. Kame obviously didn’t get that it would’ve been bothering Jin. He pulled at his shirt as much as he could without ripping it to cover his arousal. He shouldn’t have though because it caught Kame’s attention and the younger ones eyes travelled down to lock on Jin’s groin.
“Oh” Kame’s eyes widen slightly in surprise but then he smiled again. “I guess it’d bother you though” his eyes sparkled with mischief and Jin felt how his cheeks heated up, and it was not because of the sun. This was probably one of the most embarrassing situations he had ever been in throughout his whole life.
“Shut up” Jin finally managed to find his words even though it wasn’t the best ones.
“Make me” Kame chuckled and jumped up from the sand. “But just so you know if you want to, you’re still more than welcome to join me. I’m sure a cold bath is just what you need”
“I said shut up” Jin gritted before he started to run towards Kame who was quick to run away. Kame is usually faster but Jin quickly caught up with him since the other found it hard to concentrating on running while he was laughing.
Jin threw his arms around Kame’s waist and tackled him down into the sand. He landed on top of Kame who was still shaking with laughter while trying to get away from him. Jin took a hold of Kame’s wrists to pin him down and make him stay still. It wasn’t until Kame accidentally bucked his hips and come in contact with Jin’s groin that Jin realized what kind of position they were in.
“So-“ he started to get up from Kame but the other pulled him back down by his arm and he landed on top of Kame again with a grunt.
“Sorry for what?” Kame grinned and Jin started thinking that maybe Kame was interested in him. Maybe these weird feelings that had started to grow in Jin were answered. Maybe Kame really liked him. That would make a lot of sense and explain why Kame’s acting they way he was.
Jin didn’t reply but locked his eyes with Kame as to search for some kind of answer in the depth of them. He didn’t find any in but he got it when Kame raised his head slightly and planted a soft kiss on his lips. It was just a chaste, quick, lips touching lips kiss but it didn’t stop Jin’s heart from beating rapidly and the butterflies in his stomach to do somersaults.
“You-“ Jin said raising a hand to touch his lips in astonishment.
“Yeah” Kame chuckled pushing Jin of from him and got up on his feet again. He smiled down at Jin before he ran into the sea. Jin looked at Kame for a moment before he got up from the ground, threw off his clothes and ran out to join Kame in the blue waves.
The end.
