Ritsuka's body was sprawled on top of his bed studying for a History test, Soubie sat across from the boy smiling at the cute way Ritsuka's tail would ever so often swoosh gently behind him. Ritsuka glances up from his text book to gaze at the fighter.
"Do you love me?" the boy asked.
"Of course I love you"
"No, do you really love me, or are you just saying that because Semei ordered you to?"
Soubi's response was not hesitant at all, "I truly do love you". Soubi then proceeded to move toward the boy to give him a peck on the smooth cheek. This did not satisfy Ritsuka however, the child forcefully planted his own inexperienced lips to the older man's. Soubi's face portrayed shock and surprise, he never witnessed Ritsuka initiate a kiss on his own before. Ritsuka noticed the startled features of Soubi's face and blushed.
"I really like kissing you"
"If you wanted more kisses, all you had to do was ask" Soubi whispered with a smile.
Soubi hovered over the sacrifice now heavily making out with the blushing brunette. As the kisses become deeper, Soubi slowly lowers Ritsuka down onto the bed. Soubi can now faintly feel Ritsuka's small fingers softly threading through his light colored hair as he works his kisses down the boy's neck.
"…Ah!" Ritsuka feels an un-denying warmth between his legs, and a faint twitch is felt below his waist. He suddenly realized how very close he was to his beloved fighter, if Soubi felt his…
Small shaking fingers pushed the larger man away.
"Ritsuka?"
"I-I have to go to the bathroom!" he yelled back to the confused man, but it did not take long for him to understand what just happened.
Soubi chuckled, now sitting comfortably on the bed, for the first time being able to make the boy hard.
The next day Ritsuka joined Soubi to dinner at his apartment. Ritsuka helped Soubi prepare the meal by handing him different ingredients, and Soubi would add it to the large bowl.
"Thank you, for having me over" Ritsuka said while cleaning off the dinner table.
"You're welcome to eat with me anytime you please" Soubi looked down to the other and smiled.
After they both finished the chicken and vegetables, with rice Ritsuka had a question to ask his fighter, but he was unsure if he should.
"Am I weird?"
"Weird as in how?" Soubi said while eyeing the boy across from him.
"Boys are suppose to find girls attractive, but I don't"
"Do you find boys attractive?"
"Yes" a familiar blush crept up to his cheeks.
"Any particular one?" Soubi asked with a sly smirk already knowing the answer.
Ritsuka couldn't say the name through words, so he opted to instead simply point a finger at Soubi.
"I find you attractive as well, Ritsuka, in fact I love you very much"
"But boys aren't supposed to like other boys" Soubi sighs, walks near Ritsuka and places the child on his lap.
"There are people who find the same sex attractive, but many find these people disgusting, and evil" Soubi confesses with a slight cringe to his usual calm face.
"Why?" he innocently asked.
Soubi closed his eyes while hugging the boy tightly, "they don't understand that love holds no boundaries, not age, not gender, not race".
"I understand" Ritsuka whispers while placing his hand over Soubi's.
Soubi kisses Ritsuka's forehead, "I'm glad".
After a few moments of resting in each others arms Ritsuka broke the silence with yet another question.
"Could we make love when I am older?" he whispers.
"If you wanted to, yes"
"I love you Soubi".
