Of Emotions and Roses
"Why is it that we always seem to come here?" Hisoka asked. The scenery was simply a garden full of roses and several other plants. It seemed that the dark red roses were the most breathtaking ones of all.
"Well, it's for fresh air… And the view," Tsuzuki answered. He sat down on the grass and looked to see if Hisoka would do the same. His amethyst eyes saw the teen copy him, seating himself right next to him. The moment was romantic, but neither mentioned it. They knew most of what they thought and so that rendered word unnecessary.
Hisoka leaned his head against Tsuzuki's neck before asking another question. "Why do you always eat sweets? I never understood."
The older man looked down and smiled at him. "I like sweets, that's it." The younger one frowned and looked up at him. "I know that! But you eat more than anyone else…" He was unable to continue the rest. Hisoka felt awkward in trying to explain his thoughts.
"Something sweet compensates for something bitter, I suppose," Tsuzuki said after a moment had passed. "I'm not sure it does. I think you use it as an escape, from all the gruesome memories of your past," Hisoka retorted. Green eyes looked into amethyst. He pushed himself up a bit and briefly kissed his lover.
"You don't need to escape it. You're stronger than that, and besides… I'll always be there for you. During the day, night, and even in your dreams," the younger one said. Tsuzuki's eyes brightened up and were now watery. He knew Hisoka was right, about everything. "I know," he answered, but Hisoka didn't know to which of his statements he had answered to. He, though, never questioned it.
Hisoka leaned into Tsuzuki's neck, the place he felt he belonged, next to his lover's heart. "We should go in. It will rain soon." The amethyst-eyed man nodded, standing up along with the other. "Let's eat something sweet."
