Ueda woke up the next day by something tickling his cheek and when he opened his eyes he was met by a smirking Ryo.
"Good morning Princess" he said and planted a soft kiss on Ueda's lips.
"Morning" Ueda said back into the kiss. "What time is it?"
"9.03" Ryo answered as he wrapped Ueda in his arms and pulled him in closer.
"We should get up then" Ueda said but didn't make any effort to get up from the bed.
"We probably should" Ryo said but he didn't move either.
"When they start wondering why we aren't down for breakfast yet" Ueda said snuggling in closer to Ryo's warm body. "Then they'll probably come here."
"I don't care" Ryo said and leaned in for a kiss that Ueda answered by deepening it slightly.
"Ryo, we're a couple now right?" Ueda asked when they pulled away from the kiss but their faces remained close, their lips still almost touching and their eyes locked.
"Of course we are" Ryo grinned and gave Ueda a quick peak on the lips. "I thought you understood that after all that making out last night"
"Just making sure" Ueda smiled back. "Can I ask you something else?"
"Sure" Ryo answered. "Go ahead"
"How come that you," Ueda started "that just a couple of days ago claimed that you're not gay, now are lying here with me in your arms and don't feel the least bit insecure, uncomfortable, confused or nervous?"
"Someone talked some sense into me, made me realize my feelings" Ryo answered. "And for your information I'm still not gay. I'm just like you, bisexual or I mean I must be, right?"
"Who did you talk to? It can't be Jin or Yamapi right?" Ueda said a bit skeptical over the thought of either of them being able to talk sense into anyone.
"No" Ryo chuckled and shook his head slightly. "But I guess we shouldn't think that low of them, after all they noticed what we had before even we did""
"Yeah they and everybody else" Ueda pointed out. "So who did you talk to?"
"Just a friend" Ryo answered just as his phone on the nightstand made a noise telling them that Ryo had gotten a new message. Ueda who was closer to the phone leaned over and grabbed it for him. As he took it he glanced at the display and got surprised by seeing the name Ninomiya written on it again. What could he want this early?
"It's from Ninomiya-kun" Ueda said as he handed Ryo the phone with a quizzical look on his face.
"Oh" Ryo said as he grabbed the phone and started to read the message without taking notice of Ueda's quizzical look.
"What does he say?" Ueda asked trying to sound more indifferent than curious.
"Nothing really" Ryo answered as he started to type back.
"Okay then" Ueda said a bit annoyed (or maybe he was jealous?) and got up from the bed. "I'm going to take a shower"
"Huh?" Ryo said confused as he felt how the shifted when Ueda got up. "Come back; let's stay in bed a bit longer"
"No, we really should get up" Ueda said and walked towards the bathroom. "The others are probably waiting for us and you should continue your reply to Ninomiya-kun or he'll be worried"
Before Ryo could reply Ueda had closed the door to the bathroom. He didn't really understand why he got annoyed with Ryo. After all Ryo hadn't really done anything wrong, well except from taking his attention away from Ueda for a moment, and that really wasn't anything bad at all. Ueda sighed, oh well he would apologize later. It was probably because he was hungry that he was acting like this, after all he hadn't had any real food since lunch yesterday.
10 minutes later he emerged from the shower just as the door opened slightly and Ryo's head showed up in the crack shocking the hell out of the naked Ueda.
"What the hell Ryo!?" he yelled as he tried to cover his body with one of the towels. "Have you ever heard of knocking before entering?"
"Of course I have" Ryo said with an amused grin on his face as he watched Ueda trying to cover up. "And I did at first but you didn't answer so…"
"I don't believe you" Ueda said kneeling down on the floor and grabbed the t-shirt he had been sleeping in and put it on. "You just wanted to get a glimpse of me naked, you pervert"
"Yeah you're right" Ryo admitted to Ueda's utter surprise. "And you shouldn't be surprised over that fact since we'll see each other naked sooner or later right? And I just thought why not sooner rather than later?"
"You're unbelievable" Ueda said rolling his eyes as he got up from the floor and wrapped the towel harder around his waist. "Anyway the shower is ready if you want to take a shower" Ueda said as he started to make his way out of the bathroom.
"Not so fast princess" Ryo said and grabbed Ueda around the waist as he walked by him in the doorway. "Why don't you join me?"
"I've already had a shower and now I'm hungry" Ueda said and gave Ryo a quick peek on the lips before he freed himself. "Hurry up or I'll leave before you"
Ryo just looked dumbfounded at Ueda who just smiled back at him from over his shoulder as he walked up to the wardrobe.
"Oh, and I'm sorry for the way I acted earlier."Ueda said as he could feel that Ryo was still watching him from the doorway "I tend to be that way when I'm hungry."
"Oh it's okay" Ryo said and Ueda turned to face him. "Well I guess I should take that shower now, are you sure you don't wanna join me?"
"Yes I'm sure." Ueda smiled. "But I might take you up on that offer another time. Now hurry up and get ready"
Ryo smiled back before he closed the bathroom door and soon Ueda could hear the shower getting turned on.
"So I was thinking…" Ueda said a while later just when they were about to leave the room. "Should we tell the others that we are now officially dating or should we have them figure it out?"
"Don't you think having them figure it out would be much more fun?" Ryo said as he put his hand on the door handle.
"Yeah," Ueda smiled "but you do understand that you can't let them figure it out by just start kissing me, right? I don't know about you but I kind of like my career, and if we get recognized by outsiders it won't make dear old Johnny-san that happy"
"Ah, that sucks" Ryo replied with a half smile. "Oh well, I guess we'll have to make up for lost kisses tonight then"
"Yeah" Ueda said and gave Ryo a quick kiss before he let the other open the door.
They walked into the dining area of the hotel holding hands and immediately spotted their friends, everybody was there already. And after greeting everybody Ueda sat down next to Jin and Ryo sat down next to Kamenashi. Kame gave Ueda a weird look and then slowly let his hand touch his own neck as if wanting Ueda to realize something.
"What?" he mouth to Kame while Ryo was busy looking on the menu and Jin had continued on with his conversation with Yamapi and Koki. Kame just pointed at his own neck and gave him a look as if trying to transfer his thoughts to the other. Ueda just looked at him confused making him roll his eyes before he mouthed back.
"Hickey!"
"What?!" Ueda said out loud and quickly put both his hands around his neck. Kame must be kidding there couldn't be any marks on him right? If there was how come he hadn't noticed them? Okay so Ueda hadn't really been looking at himself in the mirror today but still. His outburst had gotten the attention from everyone around the table and they were all now looking at him.
"What is it?" Ryo asked worried putting down his menu and looked straight at the other.
"No, nothing" Ueda said trying to sound cool but he still covered his neck with his hands. "You can all go back to whatever you were talking about" he smiled at them and they all gave him a suspicious look but did what they were told, some of them kept on throwing glances at him though, as if he would shriek out again. Minutes later though everybody seemed to have forgotten about it and the noise around the table was loud again, that's when Ueda faced Kame again. Ryo had gone back to the menu totally oblivious about Ueda's and Kame's silent conversation.
"Where?" Ueda mouthed. "Right or left side?"
"Left" Kame mouthed back with a big grin on his lips. "Tell me all about it later"
Ueda just nodded as he started to read the menu only using his right hand as the other hand was covering the supposed hickey. He really had to check that out in the mirror later.
"I can't believe you gave me a hickey?" Ueda complained when they were back in their hotel room to get their things. They would be heading out with Akame for some shopping or something since it was still gray outside from yesterday and it looked like the rain could come back any minute. In other words not the weather for a day on the beach.
"And why didn't you tell me before we left for breakfast?" Ueda continued on as he checked it out in the mirror, it wasn't a big mark but it was still visible at least for someone with a good eye for details.
"I didn't really notice it" Ryo shrugged coming up behind him and wrapped his arms around his waist.
"Do you have anything for me to cover it with?" Ueda asked turning his head to face the other and gave him a quick peek on the lips. "I really don't wanna walk around with this. People might start to wonder"
"But isn't that what we want?" Ryo said snuggling into Ueda's neck. "For them to figure it out and what's a better clue than a beautiful mark on your neck?"
"Yeah but I still don't want to walk around like this." Ueda sighed but then his eyes lit up slightly. "Oh I got it. I think I have a scarf with me, that'll be perfect to hide it with"
