October 7th 2015
Ueda watched the waves parting almost peacefully as Taguchi steered them back out into the Pacific Ocean. It felt like hours they travelled for though it was probably not even one, Ueda didn't mind though. As he watched the moons reflection distorting with their passage, Ueda thought he would happily continue just like that forever.
“I could get used to this.” he sighed happily as Taguchi switched off the engine and came to join him, his arms circling around Ueda's waist while his chin came to rest on Ueda's shoulder.
“I like it too.” Taguchi said warmly and he gave Ueda's waist a light squeeze. “When we retire we'll buy a boat...one of those nice ones with a cosy cabin, and we can just live like this, out at sea.”
Ueda smiled as he heard Taguchi's voice breaking into a smile. “It would have to have two cabins.” Ueda nodded. “It would be cruel to have the dogs sleep out here on deck.”
Taguchi laughed lightly. “Wouldn't it be cruel to have dogs live on a boat all together?”
Ueda shrugged under Taguchi's grip. “Retrievers are strong swimmers...they have waterproof coats and webbed feet...”
“And they eat an absolute tonne of food.” Taguchi reminded him. “We'd need a third cabin just for dog food.”
“We're going to need a pretty big boat.” he chuckled, turning in Taguchi's hold. “Maybe we should just stick with a house and we can rent a boat on special occasions.”
“Occasions like this one?” Taguchi asked, the playfulness dropping slowly from his face as his eyes moved back and forth, seemingly across every inch of Ueda's.
“Well I wasn't planning on getting married aga...” Ueda started, but he was cut off by Taguchi's lips crushing against his.
Ueda kissed back just as hard, his lips parting to let Taguchi's tongue into his mouth while Taguchi's hand moved up into his hair, clenching his fingers into it, pulling them closer and closer. Taguchi's other hand moved from his waist to his back, pulling him closer with that one too before returning to his waist and sliding down to his ass.
Ueda moaned lightly against Taguchi's relentless lips, a haze of desire taking over his mind as a wave of arousal heated his body, bringing him to attention. He was so close to falling, to losing himself in it, but he'd been thinking long and hard about things the entire ride back out, about old traditions and new beginnings and about how important this night was despite how little the certificate they’d both signed would change for them.
With all of the willpower he could muster, Ueda pried himself away from Taguchi's embrace. Taguchi fought it, clinging to Ueda until Ueda pulled his hands away and urged him back.
“Baby, what's wrong?” Taguchi asked, his expression hurt.
It made Ueda feel so terrible that he almost shook his head and slipped back into it but instead he took hold of Taguchi's hands and smiled softly. “Let's wait a while.”
Taguchi's expression turned from hurt to confused, through panicked to amusement. “Wait? Wait for what?”
Ueda shook his head. “I just feel like...like this isn't the time for it...”
Taguchi laughed but it was back to confused. “What do you mean, we've been waiting for this right? We've done the wedding and the party and now we're here alone, on a boat under the stars and it's our wedding night...we should consummate our marriage.”
“That doesn't have to be right now though, right?” Ueda asked gently. “It could be hours from now, days, weeks...”
“Not weeks.” Taguchi interrupted and Ueda nodded but he squeezed Taguchi's hand a little tighter.
“It doesn't have to be right now, and it will still be as important when we do. Maybe more so...”
“So what is it that you want to do right now?” Taguchi asked.
Ueda dropped one of Taguchi's hands to scoot around him and lead him to the back of the boat and the small cluster of seats. “Let's talk for a while.”
A while turned into hours as they sat beside each other, a blanket draped over them, and talked about their past. They talked about the good times and the bad times and everything in between that had led them to their wedding day, and held tight in each other's arms they drifted to sleep.
It was a breeze that woke Ueda, just in time, the horizon was just starting to change colour. “Junno.” he said his voice barely a whisper and he said it again, reaching out to shake Taguchi lightly as a hint of orange crept up into a band of baby blue. “Junno wake up.”
He barely gave Taguchi enough time to properly wake up before he was tugging him up on the seat and climbing into his lap. Taguchi's eyes were barely open but his lips were awake, kissing back as Ueda kissed him, his tongue sweeping across Taguchi's lip.
“Baby?” Taguchi asked, and then moaned as Ueda's tongue entered his mouth properly, massaging Taguchi's own tongue as Ueda's hand moved to his crotch, palm spreading over his morning wood and stroking back and forth. “What's this about..?”
Ueda kissed him hard a few times. “Open your eyes.”
Ueda pulled back enough that he could see Taguchi's eyes open, see the glaze of them as his hand continued rubbing at Taguchi's erection. “Sunrise?” Taguchi asked when his eyes had focused enough.
“I thought a lot about everything that we've been through. It was difficult, and it hurt us both but it was important, because without that we wouldn't be where we are now. Without the happy times, the lazy mornings and the trips away, who knows if things would be as they are...all of that was important, but this is different, this is new. A new beginning.” Ueda explained. “Let's not dwell on past sunsets, let's start something new right now.”
Taguchi nodded in agreement. Ueda couldn't even be sure if was because he understood or if it was because his back was already arching in pleasure, his hips bucking up under Ueda's weight, desperate for contact. Ueda didn't mind all that much, this was important to him, just as the wedding was important to Taguchi.
By the time Ueda's pants were shucked aside and Taguchi's were pushed down to his ankles, the sky was a mix of purple and gold. The lavender clouds floated together as Ueda held Taguchi's bared erection in his hand, slick with spit, and their lips danced as their bodies finally connected.
Ueda shifted his hips slowly, rocking back and forth with Taguchi's arms secure around him, a blanket still draped about their shoulders as they moved together, over and over.

I'm sorry it took longer than ecpected to get this up. Uepi's little speech gave me some trouble but I've been tweaking it all week and this is the best I can do with it >_< With this I'll be wrapping up the first of the story archs for this part and next chapter will introduce the second, with that as it is, I think this part may end up being quite long! I hope you don't mind >_<
