Each crack made the brute toss and turn. It was soundproof except above their heads. He cursed Monobear as he gave in and sat up against his headboard.
Even if he was deathly tired, the male decided he could take the time to look at the things in his room. It went on like that for a while, but then he got a firm knocking at his door.
Mondo opened the door to find Ishimaru standing there, clutching a pillow. He smiled instantly, "Ishimaru! I thought you didn't like breaking rules."
The younger seemed to ignore the nighttime rule they all supposedly agreed on. He stepped past him into the room, sighing. He opened his mouth to respond, but sudden thunder made him make some inhuman sound and attach to Mondo.
Holding back the need to coo at this cute sight, the older brought his friend to the bed. He blushed, but he hoped it looked like he was merely being helpful. Fixing his tank top nervously, he laid himself down next to his crush.
The bed wasn't extensive, but Ishimaru liked an excuse to cuddle near Mondo. He refused to have their bodies next to each other, fearing being seen as something weak. But he began to shiver as tears prickled his eyes. He was glad he was facing away from the other.
That only worked until sniveling was heard. Big arms wrapped around his body, and he clutched his pillow to hide his face in. His face must be beet red now. From embarrassment, and Mondo actually doing that. Didn't the gang leader know about his feelings?
He was turned so he faced Mondo. Getting smiled at, but the sight of it was short lived. Ishimaru was moved so he could hide his face in the juncture between the shoulder and neck. That made him feel better already.
The scent of this male was making him sleepy, besides the intense thundering. He pulled his head back once again, blushing hard, "Aniki..."
Moving his hairdo slightly from habit, Mondo made a show of an amused face, "What is it?"
"I shouldn't, but..." Gulping hard, he watched the bland sheets for moment, before looking up with an intense stare; "I really li-" A crack of thunder shot him up, making him nearly fall from the small bed.
Ishimaru was caught, and was held to the strong chest again. Once the thunder died down, Mondo laughed softly, "Yeah, I like you, too."
The younger didn't question it, and just allowed himself to get lulled to sleep.
