It's been a while since I posted something. Not that this is anything special. Just a little short story with a bit of fluff and cuteness. Enjoy!

He was settled on the ground with his back to the tree. He was too tired to complain about the boy who's head was currently occupying his lap. They were both tired.

Doumeki hadn't wanted to rest yet. He'd wanted to wait until they were at the temple. Or Yuko's shop. Somewhere he'd know Watanuki was safe. He just couldn't rest properly when there was no guarantee that Watanuki was going to be okay when he awoke.

But Watanuki had been stubborn about it.

"Your exhausted! If you pass out on the way back, who do you think will have to carry you the rest of the way?! I just don't have the energy to deal with that right now!"

So they stayed to rest. For a little while. Because Watanuki wasn't budging and Doumeki wasn't leaving him.

He wasn't sleeping though. Still too wary that if he let himself drift off something bad would happen to Watanuki. So he had just leaned himself against the tree to rest a few moments.

He was a little suprised when Watanuki had offered his lap as a resting place.

"I'm only offering because you need to rest properly or you'll pass out!"

Watanuki was actualy a bit startled himself when Doumeki accepted.

And so, the current situation. Both boys tired, with Doumeki's head resting comfortably on Watanuki's lap.

And Watanuki with too much time to think.

In particular, about his current relationship with Doumeki.

"What are we?" The question seemed to come from no where and Doumeki opened one eye to look up at the other boy.

"What?"

"What are we? I mean..." He paused, frowning, trying to think of a way to put it. "What is...our relationship...?"

Doumeki opened the other eye and stared upwards, blankly.

Watanuki felt his face heating up with embarrassment and irritation.

"Look, just forget it! Never mind! It's not important!"

"More than friends. Not quite lovers."

Watanuki's eyes widened at the strange answer. "Wha...?"

Doumeki didn't say anymore, instead opting to close his eyes and roll onto his side.

Watanuki clenched his fists, and narrowed his eyes, but only for a moment. Then he relaxed and looked away, his cheeks now a faint pink.

"Well...don't go thinking that's going to change anytime soon."
