Rumors or a Dream Come True?: Chapter 7
The tense silence held in the small living room, until middle-aged man finally lost his patience. “Let’s make this more interesting, shall we?” he asked rhetorically.
Tegoshi looked up to Ryo with his worried pupils. Ryo forced a calming smile and caressed Tegoshi’s stray locks of bangs.
Ryo turned his head towards the fat ass and glared at him, looking strong, but fearful inside of what plots he’s thinking of. What does he want from us?!?!
“You two disgust me…” Tegoshi-san muttered before continuing
“If you two don’t leave tonight, which I highly think you will…” Tegoshi-san continued. He walked towards the sofa and sat down comfortable.
“Then I guess I’ll just have to punish you both on the bed.”
The taller teen was shaken, knowing what he meant. Tegoshi-san laughed. “I love watching or reading books which these gay couples making hard decisions…but now I get to see it live…”
That sick bastard… He thought for a moment, and finally made up his mind.
“I think I’ve made a decision.”
The fat ass rose up, surprised at how fast the teen responded. “Really? Let’s hear it.” The teen turned to the teen, cradled in his arms.
“T-Tegoshi.”
The smaller teen looked up. “…”
“A-are you willing to make a bet with me?”
Both of them became teary-eyed, apparently close to knowing what each other meant. “Anything with you…” Tegoshi replied.
Ryo forced a light smile. “Ok, then…”
The taller teen took a look on themselves. Tegoshi, wearing a tattered t-shirt and some really broken kapreeze. Himself, wearing a sweater, damaged during the fight, and a pair of jeans.
Well, at least that fat ass didn’t strip Tegoshi all the way…and we have clothes on…
Ryo held the smaller teen’s hands reluctantly, trying to share their warmth one last time. “Let’s go.” The taller teen said softly. Tears were shaken off by Tegoshi’s strong nod in respond.
*************************************************
Ryo slammed the door closed as fast he could. He could almost hear Tegoshi-san’s surprised voice from the apartment. “Hey, what the fuck?”
The couple ran down the stairs as if for their lives. When they reached outside, it shocked them.
White beauty glistened on the street. Only the roofs of the cars parked on the street were visible. The snow was like six feet tall.
The night sky still pours more of its white sprinkles down on the streets of the town. Nobody else was on the street, or at least, nobody dared to be on the street.
Ryo felt his hand being held tighter. He looked at Tegoshi, who became very serious and not afraid anymore. “Let’s do this.” He said solemnly.
Ryo nodded, still a bit afraid. They both took a step on the white powder; both of them gave a small gasp. They just realized that they’re both bare footed.
Step by step, both of them walked slowly and steadily. Step by step, their feet stung. The snow continued to fall unmercifully.
A gust of freezing wind suddenly blew down on them. Tegoshi fell on the white ground.
“Tego!” Ryo quickly picked him up from the frost. “Are you all right?”
Tegoshi’s face was pale white. “I-I’m ok…” he managed to whisper. Ryo looked around. They had only crossed two streets. Everywhere was snow, there was not a single slate of concrete or any other material to rest on found.
Ryo suddenly realized something.
They had no destination. No aim. Nothing. They’re just walking on these endless frozen streets.
The taller teen’s hopes finally collapsed. And soon his body collapsed with it. Both of them hugging tight together, laying on the snow.
They somewhat enjoyed it. Ryo finally was carefree and stress free, enjoying each other’s scent.
“Tego…”
“…” Snow kept falling down on them.
“Let’s stay like this…I know we’ll both die soon…but at least we’re together...”
Tegoshi nodded, tears streaming down on his face. It seems like those were tears of happiness. “I’m too tired to go on too…”
“Ryo, I’ve always liked you…did you know that?” the latter continued.
“…”
“T-those rumors…it gave me hope that we can finally be together…I was really happy…and then…”
“…I’m so sorry, Tegoshi. I shouldn’t have denied it…” Ryo apologized caressing Tegoshi’s hair one last time.
The smaller teen smiled. “It’s ok…well, we’re together now…”
“You know, those rumors were like a dream com true…people finally noticed that I’ve always liked you…” Ryo answered.
Silence held between the two.
“Then can we…” Tegoshi asked reluctantly. He came closer to Ryo, a mere inch away.
“Of course…”
Their lips touched each other reluctantly at first. And finally, clashed together. The moment seemed magical.
Tegoshi rested on Ryo’s shoulder. “That was wonderful…I want to be with you Ryo, for as long as I can…”
Ryo smiled. “Me too…”
The snow kept falling, but the couple seemed to be used to it already. They both closed their eyes, knowing that it won’t be long before they faint and finally…
But they enjoyed each other’s warmth, well at least for as long as they can feel it.
