Summary: Pulling up to the party lit up brightly by the bonfire, the blonde quickly put his car into park and got out. Holding up a large case of beer to some of his friends as he walked towards the group; a few of the guys giving a cheer. One by one, they gave him a pat on the back as he set the beer beside the cooler.
Comments: Another little something I had come up with. As most of you can tell, I’ve been on a very… country kick as of lately. I don’t know what it is. I’ve been listening to a lot of country lately also. I blame it on the fact that I am homesick. I miss the country fields, the amazing mountains and just that hometown feeling. Okay, that’s enough of that. On with the story; I hope you enjoy dears ^^
Pulling up to the party lit up brightly by the bonfire, the blonde quickly put his car into park and got out. Holding up a large case of beer to some of his friends as he walked towards the group; a few of the guys giving a cheer. One by one, they gave him a pat on the back as he set the beer beside the cooler.
Immediately, he began giving some of his friend’s quick greetings, even taking an offered red Dixie cup on his way. The songs continued to play loudly, the boisterous laughter filled the night air and the festivities picked up.
Reita had made his way toward a familiar group of faces. Grinning as he snuck up behind one of the unsuspecting persons and took him into a tight headlock. They wrestled boyishly before the person gave a punch to the blonde’s rib and he immediately released is hold.
“Dude, I was starting to think you weren’t going to show,” a black haired male shoved the other back. He cocked his hip and stared at the blonde, “what took you so long?”
Reaching into his baggy back pocket, he pulled out a pint of whiskey. Holding it up for the other to see, he laughed, “well, you called and said you guys were running low on drinks and I had to make a stop.”
“Crown,” the other frowned with distaste.
Giving a jerk of his thumb towards his car, the blonde gave another laugh, “I gotcha tequila in the backseat and more crown if ya guys run out.”
“Better not have,” he pretended to throw fists at the other.
Giving a booming laughter, Reita held the bottle out to one of his other friends. The guys quickly opened it and poured the amber liquid into their cups. He made sure to get some of the drink before it was completely empty. And right away, he settled in his group of friends, talking loudly and having a great time.
After several minutes of being there, he didn’t know what it was, but, at that moment, he had the urge to look over his shoulder. Brown eyes scanned the faces lit up by the large bonfire, until his eyes fell on the body of a black haired male sitting on the back of truck tailgate; alone. The male’s leg swung back and forth, a look of calmness.
Acting on autopilot, Reita stood and made his way straight to the other man. Sitting in the open space beside him, he smiled at the other. The shorter looked at him a little confused, but then, he smiled back. Automatically, the blonde grinned.
“Hi,” he greeted the other, “I’m Reita. What’s-”
Suddenly, he watched the black haired teen’s eyes light up. The other jumped up, took a firm hold of his wrist and yanked him a few feet away from the truck. The other wrapped his arms around the blonde’s neck and steadily, they began to sway.
It took Reita a moment to come to realization they were dancing to the song coming from speakers of the truck. Seeing the smile on the other’s face and he couldn’t help but to keep smiling as well. Gently, he placed his hands on the slim waist of the other teen and followed with his movement, letting him lead their dance.
Suddenly, it felt like it were just the two of them. His friends, the party, it all just disappeared and it was just him and this boy.
Licking his lips thoughtfully, Reita asked slowly, “what’s your name?”
Inhaling sharply as those brown eyes looked up at him, the elder teen felt hot in the face. In that moment, he felt his heart literally burst inside his chest. In that moment, he felt like he had truly fallen in love.
“Ruki,” was the quiet answer.
Oh yes, Reita was head over heels in love with this teen. So, he was more than disappointed when the song came to an end and he wished that they would play it again. Apparently Ruki had felt the same, especially when he said it out loud.
The shorter looked up with a smile, “I wish they would play it again.”
The blonde felt completely the same.
At the end of the night, he had offered Ruki a ride home. The younger taking it with gratitude and as they climbed into Reita’s truck; the blonde immediately began going through every station, just to find that one song. And when they had pulled up outside the others house, he found that song.
Looking up just in time to see Ruki’s eyes light up once again and he smiled. Getting out and going around to the passenger side, he opened the door for the dark haired teen, held out his hand. Ruki took it with smile and Reita led them into a slow dance.
They danced the entire song. Gazing deep into one another’s eyes and if he could, Reita would never look away. But, for the second time that night, the song came to an end. He’d give his last dime for the DJ to play again.
Stepping back, Ruki looked up at the taller and then, leaning forward he placed a quick kiss to the blonde’s cheek. Moving away with a smile, he laughed, “Thanks for the dance and the ride home.”
“N-No problem,” the elder answered timidly.
“See you around,” he winked and walked to the front door.
Swallowing, Reita shot forward; surprising even himself. Grasping the black haired teen firmly, turning him and kissing him. Ruki immediately reacted and kissed back.
It was a simple kiss, but, it felt so heavenly to the both of them. If Reita could, he’d kiss Ruki for the rest of his life. In the end though, they had to part for a shaky breath. Pulling back enough the tips of theirs nose touched and they could once more, gaze into each other’s eyes.
Gazing into the red face of the teen, Reita smiled. Reaching up and combing his long fingers through the soft black strands. Damned, how he wished this night wouldn’t end and that song would play one more time.
“G’night,” Ruki breathed out, barely breaking the silence.
“Night,” Reita reciprocated just as breathy.
Holding his breath as the other turned and walked up the steps, he waved when Ruki glanced over his shoulder. He stood like a statue as the teen opened the front door, entered and shut it with a quick wave. A heavy wistful breath leaving him, Reita turned with the biggest grin he’s ever had. He was definitely in love with the boy.
