"Sawamura?" Kazuya asked the pitcher in the seat next to him.
"Hmm?"
"Can you explain to me again why I'm on a train heading to Nagano?"
Eijun sighed noisily through his nose. "Because you agreed a week ago to come with me."
"Why did I agree again?"
"Because you couldn't go home over the rare break we got and you were going to be lonely, so as your pitcher-slash-friend I graciously offered-slash-forced you to come home with me." Eijun said and sighed.
"Why did I let you do that?"
"What is this? A test?" Eijun sat up straighter in his seat and glared slightly at the catcher next to him then answered. "Because you need to leave school grounds every so often. Cause if you don't, you might turn into a baseball or something." That got Kazuya to crack a smile at him.
"Says the pitcher obsessed with the mound."
"I may be obsessed but even I know when to take a break from something I love."
Kazuya outright laughed at the statement. "Do you now? Cause I can remember three separate Senpai who have told you to take breaks from running so much that one of them resorted to pile driving to get you to stop"
Eijun flushed pink and sputtered. "I'm not obsessed with running! How the hell did you go from the mound to running?" Kazuya shrugged and Eijun continued "And I absolutely don't love running! I do it because it's healthy!"
"For as much as you run, you sure seem obsessed."
"Ugh let's drop this, I'm trying to look out for your health, Captain." Eijun sat back and crossed his arms.
"Yes, yes. I appreciate it." Kazuya reached up to ruffle Eijun's hair.
"One yes would've sufficed." Eijun grumbled and pushed the catcher's hand away.
"Yes~." Kazuya turned away to look back out the window, watching the country fly by as the train moved along. "So what does one do in the country?"
"You make it sound like I'm from a different planet."
"You aren't?" Kazuya's eyes widened as he sounded genuinely surprised as he turned back to the pitcher. Eijun just slightly narrowed his eyes at him, clearly unamused.
"It's Nagano not Namek."
Kazuya just laughed. "You could have fooled me. It's so green out there."
"That is what nature looks like Miyuki Kazuya." Eijun said dryly. "Have you never seen anything green besides a baseball field?"
"Does the local park count"
"No! Have you ever been outside the city?" Eijun turned to fully face him. Kazuya looked to be in thought then answered.
"Maybe when I was really young, when my Mom was alive."
Eijun felt a prick of guilt in his stomach and frowned. "I see...Well, I plan to to show you a lot of nature this week. We're going to get dirty, City Boy." He finished with a smile.
Kazuya's eyes brightened for a second as he smirked. "Down and dirty or dirt dirty? Cause I'm not really up for the second one." He watched as Eijun let the choice sink in and then when he realized what he said his face went deep pink.
"PERVERT!" He shouted and Kazuya's hand immediately went to cover Eijun's mouth.
"Shhh, don't yell idiot!" Kazuya shushed but he was smiling.
"Don't say perverted things then!" Eijun said much quieter this time.
"I just wanted clarification to what kind of dirty business you were referring to."
"Why would it be the perverted kind?!"
"I dunno, it could happen." Kazuya shrugged.
"Yeah, maybe in your dreams." Eijun whispered harshly.
"Oh. It does." Kazuya smiled wickedly at the boy. Eijun's eyes widened almost comically as his brows disappeared up underneath his bangs. He froze like that for a moment but then composed himself with a glare.
"I don't believe you."
Kazuya laughed hard. "Well whether or not you believe me, it does happen on occasion."
"Really?"
"Why do you sound so surprised? It's not uncommon for people to have dirty dreams involving their friends."
Eijun was about to retort but a voice overhead interrupted him. "Now arriving in Nagano Station." Eijun shut his mouth, it was probably better to just drop the conversation anyway. It wasn't like they were dating either, so it was a little weird to hear that Miyuki was dreaming dirty things about him. Though he'll admit, he was happy to hear it but he'll never admit that out loud to him.
"We'll resume this conversation later Sawamura." Kazuya chuckled.
"The hell we will!" Eijun huffed and stood up to grab his bag off the luggage compartment above them.
"Hahaha, we have all week to discuss this."
"Ugh, I'm starting to regret inviting you."
"Ha! Rude. And you invited me so forcefully too." Kazuya stood up too and grabbed his own bag.
"Well it's pretty rude to dream dirty things about someone without their consent."
"I can't control that!"
"You, the master control freak can't control something?" Eijun turned to him with to him with his eyes opened wide again, although this time it was clearly in a very sarcastic manner.
"You know what?" Kazuya swung his arm around Eijun's shoulders and smiled evilly.
"What?"
"I think I'm gonna tell you all about them later, in detail. What was touched, licked...fucked."
"Oh my God, shut up." Eijun groaned, his face scarlet.
"Nah, consider it punishment." Kazuya laughed and released the pitcher as the train slowed to a stop. The two of them moved in front of the doors and waited patiently for them to open. As soon as they did they both walked off and Kazuya took in the Nagano station.
"Well it looks normal."
"Why would it look any different?" Eijun asked with a brow raised and Kazuya shrugged. "Ri-ight. Anyways we go this way." He pointed to the left and grabbed Kazuya's hand to pull him in the direction. Kazuya let him lead since honestly he didn't know where he was or was going. Eijun pulled him down the platform stairs and along the road to the left.
"Are we walking to your house?"
"Yeah, it's not that far from the station, ten minutes tops."
"Are we going to hold hands the entire way?" Kazuya smirked down to their joined hands. Eijun stiffened then immediately let go as if something just burned him.
"Oh! Uh, sorry." Kazuya smiled and re-grabbed Eijun's hand.
"I don't mind, besides I don't know where I'm going, I don't want to get lost."
Eijun just stared at him. "What are you, five?"
"And if I said yes?"
"I'd probably believe you." Eijun's hand tightened around Kazuya's as he laughed and pulled him along. Kazuya's heart fluttered a bit. He had not planned to go anywhere this week originally. His plan, since he couldn't go home, was to basically lay around in the dorms enjoying the silence. But as soon as his pitcher heard what was going on he demanded, almost violently, that he should come home with him.
Kazuya had been drinking at the time and almost choked on his drink at the idea. He had stared at the boy with wide eyes as his heart lept into his throat. Going home with Sawamura meant he was going to meet his family and childhood friends, right? He was so not ready for that. Hell, he hadn't even asked him out yet! He laughed nervously and turned him down but Sawamura wasn't taking his no for an answer.
"Why are you so insistent that I go home with you?" Kazuya asked, confused as to why the younger was so insistent he go.
"Because people shouldn't be alone during breaks, I'd rather you come home with me then have you be lonely here." Sawamura looked away from him, his cheeks red. Nearly dropping his can at the answer, he stared at his pitcher. Kazuya took a moment to gather his thoughts then answered.
"Well okay then. I'll go with you." Sawamura's head whipped back to him as his eyes gleamed.
"Really? Awesome! I'll let my parents know!" He practically yelled and ran off. Kazuya sighed and finished his can.
'What the hell did I just get myself into?'
For the next week Sawamura was just on another level of excited. Kazuya couldn't help but grin because he was the cause of it. Sawamura stormed his way into his room the night before they left to make sure he was adequately packed and to give him his train ticket. Kazuya's heart couldn't help but clench at the cuteness. God, how he really needed to ask this boy out. Perhaps this would be the week he did. After all, he would be at Sawamura's house, with Sawamura for an entire week perhaps even alone. Aaaand now he's nervous again.
Grabbing a few odds and ends to complete his packing he tried to push his nervousness aside and get some sleep because heavens know how much he'll be able to sleep once he's at the Sawamura residence. The next morning he was up and at the front gate before Sawamura. The boy was surprised that he was. The rest was history as Kazuya let himself be led by Eijun. They really hadn't spoken since they started walking.
Eijun's hand tightened every so often as if to confirm that Kazuya was there. He couldn't help but have a silly grin on his face. The fact that Miyuki even agreed to come home with him tickled every part of him, but the fact that he was holding his hand on the way to his home, oh boy, his heart was like a jackhammer in his chest. He really, really hoped Miyuki couldn't feel it through their hands. He was so focused on the catcher not feeling his heartbeat they nearly walked past his house. Miyuki started snickering at him.
"Are you sure this is your house?"
"Of course it is, I was just a little distracted that's all!"
"What? From a little hand holding?" Kazuya laughed. Eijun made an inhuman noise in his throat and threw Kazuya's hand down.
"NO!" He yelled and turned to approach the front door. Kazuya followed him still laughing. Eijun opened the door and yelled inside.
"I'm home and I brought a friend!" The laughter immediately died behind him and he grinned as he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"You didn't tell your parents I was coming?!" Kazuya exclaimed, sounding a bit alarmed.
"Nope."
"Are you kidding me?" He was going to continue but Eijun's mother rounded a corner.
"Oh Eijun!" His mother smiled warmly. "And friend."
"Uh I'm sorry for intruding, he" Kazuya pointed at Eijun with his thumb. "Said he was going to tell you I was coming."
Eijun's mother looked confused. "Oh honey, he told us a week ago that a friend was coming over." Eijun couldn't help but break out into fits of giggles.
"...Oh" Kazuya's cheeks went red as he threw a glare to the boy next to him, who looked away innocently.
"Eijun..." His mother chided, then held her hand out to Kazuya. "I'm Sawamura Emi, I'm Eijun's mother. It's nice to have you."
"I'm Miyuki Kazuya, Sawamura-kun's senpai and teammate." He took her hand and she shook it enthusiastically.
"Miyuki-kun? Are you that Miyuki-kun that I've heard so much about?"
"Uh..."He looked to Eijun who was looking away. "I guess?"
"It's so nice to finally put a face with the name." Emi pulled her hand away and seemed to be looking him over. "Eijun." The boy looked up at her and she winked at him. "I approve."
"MOM!"
Kazuya was just confused as to what was going on. Just what did she approve of? He couldn't help but feel his cheeks go warm. She laughed and patted Eijun on the head.
"Anyways, why don't you two go get settled. Eijun, your father and grandfather are out until later. Come help me with lunch when you're done."
"Yes!"
"Ah, yes. The extra futon is hanging out to dry, grab that in an hour or so too." She turned to go back the way she came.
"Okay." Eijun turned to grab Kazuya's sleeve to lightly pull him along. "My room's this way." His hand dropped as he kicked his shoes off in a somewhat neat order. Kazuya followed suit and hitched his bag higher on his shoulder as he followed Eijun.
He couldn't help but be impressed at the Sawamura house. It was waaay bigger than he thought it would be. He followed Eijun up the stairs. The pitcher explained which rooms were which, where the bathroom was and such as they made their way to his room. Kazuya was actually floored when they entered Eijun's room. It was so neat and tidy. He wouldn't have guessed it was the pitcher's room but all the photos of him and his friends on the wall confirmed it was indeed Eijun's.
"How come your dorm room isn't this nice looking?"
"Because I don't live here right now. I bet your room looks the same."
"Heh, well I guess you're not wrong." Which was true, it wasn't like he even went home to add anything to his room anyways. His Father was going to be out of town for a work retreat this week, so there wasn't even a bother to pack to go to an empty house. He wasn't even phased when he got the call, it was just normal to him and to be honest, his Father really needed this trip. He deserved the vacation. Getting side tracked in his thoughts he didn't realize Eijun was talking to him.
"-there...Miyuki-senpai? Miyuki?"
"Huh?"
"You didn't hear a single thing I said, did you?" Eijun sighed.
"Sorry, what?"
"You can leave your stuff on my bed, I'll let you sleep there this week."
"You sure?"
"Absolutely! You're my guest, I can lend out my bed to you." Eijun dropped his bag on his desk by the wall.
"You should probably lay down while I go help my mom."
"It's okay. I really don't need to. I can help with lunch."
"Miyuki Kazuya, you look like you haven't slept in days, just nap. You can help with dinner, I'll come get you when it's ready." Eijun flashed him a smile and whatever disagreement that Kazuya was going to make died in his throat.
"Fine." He sighed and laid his bag on Eijun's bed.
"Good, I'll be back in a while." Eijun said as he ducked out of the room and closed the door behind him. Kazuya just sort of stared at Eijun's bed for a moment. His head was trying to wrap around the fact that he was in Sawamura's house, in Sawamura's room and was blatantly told to sleep in Sawamura's bed by Sawamura.
"I'm going to die." He mumbled as he pulled his glasses off and set them down next to Eijun's bag on the desk. Moving his bag to the floor, he went face first into Eijun's pillow on the bed. Which was probably a mistake because underneath the fresh laundered scent was one that belonged uniquely to Eijun and now he was engulfed in it. It was oddly comforting and to his utter horror, a tad arousing.
Moving so his face wasn't being suffocated by Eijun's scent he sighed and tried to focus on sleeping because the last thing he needed right now was a boner. He let the comfort of everything lull him into a sleep. He was out in just a few minutes.
As soon as Eijun closed his door his face erupted into a crimson mess. 'Miyuki Kazuya is going to sleep in my bed! What have I done!?' He grabbed his cheeks and slapped them to bring himself to his senses. 'Uwaa! This week might end up killing me!' He groaned out loud as he started to descend the stairs. He made his way to the kitchen to where his mother was.
"Okay. What do you need help with honorable Mother of mine!" He saluted her and Emi giggled and pointed towards a small pile of vegetables.
"Wash and cut those. Oh boy, how I missed you." She wiped her hands on the apron she was wearing and drew Eijun into a hug.
"Missed you too." He hugged her tightly then drew away.
"So where is The Miyuki Kazuya?" Emi asked with a sly smile and poked Eijun in the side. He jumped slightly.
"Miyuki-senpai? Oh, I told him to lie down for a while. He wanted to help with lunch but I said no. He could help with dinner." He grabbed the vegetables as he spoke. "He honestly needs to just rest, he's been working really hard lately and not getting nearly enough sleep as he should. So I thought a relaxing trip to Nagano might help him out!" Eijun smiled widely at his Mother who chuckled.
"You really care for Miyuki-kun don't you?"
"W-what? T-that's absurd. I just need him well enough to catch for me!" His face went scarlet as he stuttered then turned his head away from her and weakly mumbled "That's all."
She gave him a knowing look and smiled, not pushing the conversation any further. Eijun stared at the vegetables as the water ran over them. He turned off the water and glanced at his mom.
"Would it be weird?"
"Hmm?"
"Would it be weird if I did care a lot about him?"
"Absolutely not."
Eijun's lips lifted in a small smile at her answer.
It was about an hour later when everything was prepared and ready to eat.
"Why don't you go wake Miyuki-kun, I need to run these over to your Father and Grandfather so I'll be back in about an hour" Emi said as she gathered two neatly boxed lunched she'd laid out on the table in the kitchen. "You boys eat your fill then find something fun to do." She made her way to the front door with Eijun following her. Eijun waved as she left.
"Have a safe walk."
"I will." She giggled and left.
Eijun looked at the stairs. "Guess I better go wake him." He said to no one and ascended said stairs. He knocked lightly on his door and waited five seconds before cracking it open. He tip toed to the bed and softly called out "Miyuki-senpaiiii." The older didn't budge from his sleeping position.
Eijun looked him over and then froze when his gaze landed on his sleeping face. 'GAH! How can he still be so attractive just sleeping?!' He yelled in his mind as he just stared down at his senpai. Kazuya shifted slightly and Eijun jumped. 'Okay Eijun. You should really stop staring at him...it's kinda creepy of you!' He sighed and bent down to poke Kazuya's cheek.
"Miyuki-senpai, you hungry?"
Kazuya groaned softly and dug his face into the pillow he was laying on. Eijun stifled a laugh. "Miyuki it's going to get cold you know."
"Comfy." Came a muffled response.
"Eat and then come back to bed or if you want you can try the hammock outside, it's really nice out." He heard another muffled reply that sounded like 'Uh uhn'. Eijun frowned at him and proceeded to poke his shoulder now. The catcher just mumbled something incoherent and shifted away from the offending finger. Eijun smiled slightly. Might as well make him as try to make him as uncomfy as possible.
He climbed on the bed and straddled the catcher's back then proceeded to lie all of his weight on top of him. He felt Kazuya go ridged at the contact. "Come on Miyuki-senpai, my mom and I worked really hard on lunch."
"Okay, fine. Just get off of me."
"Mmn, maybe not. You're actually a little comfy." Eijun pressed himself a little closer. Whatever embarrassment he had earlier had disappeared as soon as he touched the catcher. Kazuya just burrowed his head into the pillow. Eijun was determined to kill him, the body heat alone was a problem but now he was all pressed up against him and it was driving Kazuya crazy.
He was only slightly relieved when Eijun sat up but that flew out the window as the pitcher trailed his fingers down his back. He froze again.
"But you're awfully stiff. When's the last time someone massaged you?" Eijun asked.
'I'm stiff in more ways than one.' Kazuya thought dryly then answered Eijun. "Don't remember."
"That's not good Captain, aren't you the one who always gets on my case about massages?"
Kazuya almost chuckled at the inquiry. Massages were just an excuse to touch Eijun. "So? I really haven't had time to ask anybody." Fingers started to kneed into his shoulders and damn, if he was to die now, this wouldn't be such an awful way to go.
"You could always ask me and I hate to admit it but Furuya isn't that bad either. I mean he got some decent practice with Spitz-senpai." Eijun chuckled at the thought.
"I'll think about it for next time." Kazuya shifted his arms to move them underneath his chin. He just let himself enjoy the sensation of Eijun's hands gliding around his shoulders and back. He was glad that Eijun couldn't see his face because he was sure it was pink. Eijun's hand skittered by his previously injured side.
"How is your side?"
"Feels like I never injured it."
"That's good." Eijun breathed as he gingerly ran his fingers over Kazuya's side. The catcher shivered slightly and hoped the other would take it as he was ticklish. Eijun removed his hands and sat up straight. He needed to stop or things might get awkward. He was using all his will power in his body for his blood not to go south. The catcher's muscles felt amazing even if they were covered by his shirt. 'This was a bad idea Eijun, really bad.' His embarrassment was coming back in full force. He heard Kazuya sigh underneath him.
"W-well let's go eat." Eijun cursed at himself as his voice cracked a little.
"I was going to until someone trapped me and felt me up." Kazuya pushed up and Eijun fell backwards onto his back with a squeak. The catcher turned to smirk at him.
"I didn't feel you up! It was a massage you bastard!" Eijun tried to push himself up but Kazuya had already moved on top of him and was grinning playfully down to him.
"It's very bold of you to feel up a sleeping person."
"Okay, first off, poking you to wake you up is not feeling you up and secondly you," He poked Kazuya in the chest with his pointer finger. "Massage me all the time and I don't consider that being felt up."
"I guess we have different views on that, what would you consider as being felt up?" Kazuya moved as he boxed Eijun between his arms and moved his legs in between the pitcher's effectively trapping him.
"W-well, this, watcha doing here is pretty borderline." Eijun stuttered slightly as he tried to look away but Kazuya held his gaze steady.
"Is that so?"
"Y-yeah." Eijun couldn't help but stare back at the catcher above him. He was so damn attractive without his glasses, not that he wasn't attractive all the time it was that it was a rarity to see him without them. Something flickered in Kazuya's eyes the longer they held each other's gaze. Neither realized that their faces had gotten closer until Eijun felt something brush against his hip when Kazuya got closer.
"Ah something..." He went quiet as he broke eye contact to briefly look down to confirm what had brushed against his hip. His face lip up in a fierce blush when he realized what it was. "You..." He started and his gaze flickered back to Kazuya's whose face was the same shade as his, his eyes wide as he froze. Neither moved for what seemed like an eternity.
Kazuya was the first to snap out of their frozen state. "Sorry." He mumbled and tried to move away but his knee slipped on the blanket they managed to tangle up in the past five minutes. Slipping caused their groins to meet which caused a small moan to slip from Eijun's mouth. Eijun's hand immediately went to his mouth to prevent the noise but it was too late, Kazuya was already looking at him in shock. The shock was quickly replaced by a taunting smirk.
"Seems like I'm not the only one."
Eijun just glared at him and removed his hand from his mouth. "S-shut up! This is really emba-AH!"
Kazuya took the opportunity to test grind his erection against Eijun's. He'd only heard him moan once and he was already addicted to the noise. His smirk twitching on his lips he leaned in closer and aligned their hips. Eijun sucked in a breath and latched onto Kazuya's sleeves.
"M-miyuki?" His question came out as a choked whisper. Kazuya didn't acknowledge it and ground into the pitcher. Eijun let out a barely audible cry as both of their clothed dicks met. He could feel how hot and heavy the older boy was through the thin material they both wore. He bit his bottom lip as Kazuya just tortuously ground into him slowly. Kazuya couldn't help but like the look. It was super adorable and sexy at the same time.
'This is so out of order but who cares? This is happening.' He thought and locked eyes with Eijun again. The younger could barely wrap his head around what was happening. But what he did know is that this felt good and Kazuya was the cause of it. That simple fact sent a shiver down his spine and straight to his dick. He pushed his hips up into Kazuya's and the older sighed with content. As he pushed up he hooked his legs around Kazuya's hips. The catcher's eyes went bright with approval as he moved his right hand down to Eijun's hip and slid it till he grasped his ass. Murmuring a "fuck yes." as he did.
'I really want to kiss him.' Kazuya thought in his haze. Apparently Eijun had the same thought because he slid his hands into his hair and drew his head closer. They were a breath away from touching their lips together before...
"EIJUN!"
They both jumped and unfortunately Eijun pulled Kazuya's head as they did resulting in them slamming foreheads together. They both groaned in pain as they saw stars. They pulled away from each other, the moment lost as they rubbed their heads. Eijun untangled himself from Kazuya and quickly got off the bed as he yelled down the stairs.
"Yeah!?"
"Oh? There you are. You two haven't eaten yet?" Emi asked.
"No, we were getting to it."
"I see, well when you're done would you mind terribly coming to help your Father for a little while? There's supposed to be a big storm rolling in, in a few hours."
Eijun glanced back at Kazuya who was still rubbing his head as he got up to get his glasses. "Yeah, I'll even bring Miyuki with me." Eijun smiled innocently when the older froze and turned to lift an eyebrow at him.
"Oh good, that'll help get things done faster, we'll make something really good for dinner for the help. Oh! And don't forget the futon outside, grab that after you eat." Emi said as she hurried into the kitchen. Eijun descended the stairs after her.
Kazuya watched him go and pushed his glasses on. He let the events catch up with him and his face went red. ' WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!' He screamed in his head and his hands went up to hold his face in embarrassment. He groaned slightly as he touched the sore spot on his forehead. "Oww, that hurt."
'What would have happened if his mom didn't come back?' He thought 'Well obviously we would have went further!' He answered himself immediately. His face went a darker red and sighed. Kazuya dropped his hands to his sides. "Obviously there are a few things we need to talk about." He said to the room and it was his stomach that answered him. "Food first I guess." He composed himself and made his way to where he suspected the kitchen was. Which was pretty easy to find considering he just went where he could hear Eijun.
Eijun was currently waving off his Mother a second time as Kazuya walked into the room. His back was towards him and when he turned he jumped at Kazuya's presence.
"Geeze don't scare me like that. You shouldn't sneak up on people."
"I wasn't sneaking, you're just too loud to hear me." Kazuya teased as he made himself comfortable at the small kitchen table.
"I am not that loud!" Eijun yelled slightly.
"You just proved my point Bakamura." Kazuya chuckled and waited for Eijun to slide into the chair across from him before touching the food in front of him.
"Ugh, just shut up and eat." Eijun growled and shoved a piece of fish into his mouth. Kazuya picked up his chopsticks and did the same. After a few bites, Kazuya's eyes flickered up to Eijun who was very focused on his food. He placed his utensils down.
"We should talk about what happened upstairs." He stated and Eijun nearly choked on his food as he froze. Eijun's face started to go red and Kazuya actually feared he was choking for real, but his fear was settled as the pitcher swallowed and fidgeted in his seat.
"U-um, w-well...If you wouldn't mind. Can we talk about it later tonight maybe after dinner?" He was looking away and biting his lip again. Kazuya frowned slightly. 'Why does he have to look so cute when he does that?'
"Sure. I don't mind." He answered and picked his chopsticks back up. Eijun's face visibly relaxed. 'Well, at least he wants to talk about it.' Kazuya thought and continued eating. The rest of the meal was in silence. As soon as they were both finished Eijun gathered all the dishes and placed them in the sink.
"I'll do them when we get back."
"So what are we going to help with?" Kazuya asked.
"We're just going to finish some planting. They want to get everything in they ground before the storm hits, that way everything can get watered. It's the last of the planting that needs to happen, so sorry for recruiting you to work on your week off." Eijun flashed Kazuya a smile. The catcher smirked slightly.
"You don't look sorry, but I don't mind."
"Eh, it's all in my plans of getting you to play in the dirt." Eijun giggled.
"I suppose it's only fair since we already got down and dirty that I should get dirt dirty." Kazuya commented and was half prepared for the smack on his arm from Eijun. "Oww, I was prepared but that still stung. You are unnecessarily violent Sawamura."
"You totally deserved it for that comment." His face was red as he grumbled. Kazuya just chuckled.
"Yes, yes we'll talk about that later" He rubbed his arm to alleviate the sting.
"Are you okay to let those get dirt on them?" Eijun asked pointing at Kazuya's clothes.
"Yeah, I don't mind, they're kind of old anyways."
"Okay, we can always wash them later too if necessary. Come on, let's go." Eijun turned a door in the kitchen that led outside and opened it. He waited for Kazuya to go through it before he simply closed it.
"Don't you need to lock up?" Kazuya asked, his eyebrow raised. Eijun just laughed.
"Wahahaha...Locks. You really are from the city." he patted Kazuya's shoulder as he walked by. "Out here City boy, you really don't need to lock up. We all trust each other."
"I see. I guess. Bakamura I'm not digging the new nickname."
"Well I don't dig your personality." Eijun stuck his tongue out at Kazuya who smirked at him in return.
"Well obviously you dig it a little."
Eijun's cheeks went pink and his tongue slipped back into his mouth. Kazuya ruffled his hair as he walked past him.
"I have no idea where we're going."
"We're just going down the road a bit. See the field over there, that's our farm."
"Wow, that's a big field. Do your parents manage it all on their own?" Kazuya asked.
"Mostly. There's a few hired hands to help during the picking season, since it needs to happen faster than planting. Planting's pretty easy though."
"I see." Kazuya hummed as they made their way down to the field. It was a few minutes of silence before Eijun stretched his arms above his head.
"Ahhh man. It's already hot out, I can't wait for the rain."
"What do you want to do when it does start?" Kazuya asked looking at the very distant black clouds in the sky.
"I don't know, we'll find something to do."
They reached the field and trekked down a small dirt path towards a small barn and greenhouse that were next to each other.
"Eijun!" Emi waved them over to the greenhouse. There were two men next to her. Kazuya recognized them as Eijun's Father and Grandfather.
"Oooh Eijun didn't tell us he was bringing Miyuki-kun home." His Father exclaimed as they walked up. He held out his hand to Kazuya who accepted it. "I know we met once before but just in case you forgot, I'm Sawamura Eiji and this is my Father, Sawamura Eitoku. It's nice to have you Son. Thanks for your help too." He shook Kazuya's hand enthusiastically. Kazuya laughed slightly.
"I remember you both Sir and it's not a problem."
"Sir?" Eiji laughed "Kid you can practically call me Dad for how much we know about you from Eijun."
"DAD!" Eijun looked mortified.
"Oh really now?" Kazuya released Eiji's hand and side eyed Eijun with a taunting smirk.
"What?" Eiji asked his son.
"Really?" Eijun asked, his face pink.
"Okay you two, enough, we need to finish before those clouds get here. I can't believe we weren't on top of the weather this week." Eitoku interjected. "Eijun why don't you and Miyuki-kun go grab some supplies and finish the last row over here then help your Mother."
"Roger!" Eijun saluted and grabbed Kazuya's wrist to drag him towards the barn.
"Do you want something to hold your hair back? I generally use a bandanna or something." Eijun asked when they reached the door.
"Sure." Kazuya answered as they went inside. The barn was filled with gardening tools all along the walls, all sorts of shovels, hoes and rakes. There were a few work stations, as well as a tractor in the back. Eijun made his way to the nearest work station and flicked on a light that hung above it. He opened a drawer and pulled out two bandannas and two pairs of gardening gloves.
"Here." he handed a set to Kazuya.
"Thanks." He took them and as he slipped the gloves on. He then pushed his hair back and tied the bandanna tightly on his head. When he was done he looked back at Eijun who was currently slipping his shirt off. "What are you doing?"
"What does it look like? I'm taking my shirt off." Eijun said matter of factly.
"Why?"
"Because it's hot and I kind of need to balance my tan out a bit." Eijun said as he placed his shirt on the flat surface of the station.
"That's a great idea actually." Kazuya couldn't help but rake his eyes down Eijun's bare back before lifting his shirt and doing the same. Eijun turned around just in time to see this and his eyes were instantly glued to Kazuya's abs.
'Shit. He's really hot.' He thought and absentmindedly ran is tongue over his lips. Kazuya pulled his shirt away and placed it on top of Eijun's on the work station.
"What? See something you like?" Kazuya grinned at him.
Eijun blinked "Uh...no...bug."
Kazuya had an immediate reaction. "WHERE?!" He yelled and jumped away from where he was standing.
"Pffft oh my God! That was great! You're such a pansy when it comes to bugs!" Eijun doubled over laughing. Kazuya straightened up and glared at him. He moved right in front of the laughing boy and waited till he straightened up. Eijun's laughter died. 'Oh shit.' he cursed in his mind and started to back up but Kazuya caught his cheeks in his hands and pinched them.
"So not funny Bakamura." Kazuya said lowly then released his hold on Eijun.
"Oww, you're also unnecessarily violent." Eijun said as he rubbed his cheeks. "Geeze, let's go plant." He quickly tied his hair back as he moved towards the shovels. After grabbing two hand shovels, he made his way back to the entrance of the barn. He heard Kazuya chuckle.
"What?" He asked with narrowed eyes.
"You sort of look like a rabbit."
"Huh?" Eijun gave him a confused look.
"Forget about it, you just look cute right now." Kazuya turned and walked out of the barn.
"C-cute?" Eijun asked the empty barn then flushed red. He frowned then marched out the door. He knocked into Kazuya's shoulder as he passed him. "I'm not cute." He grumbled and started walking to the row they were planting in.
"I beg to differ."
Eijun ignored the comment. When they reached their row, Eijun handed Kazuya one of the shovels and instructed how to plant the right way. He then ran to the greenhouse to grab the sprouts they were planting. It didn't take them much time to finish their row, an hour at most. Kazuya seemed to be a natural at planting.
They then went to help Emi finish up her row. It was a total of three hours before the dark clouds were rolling in making threatening noises. Everyone had finished the last few finishing touches and put everything away just as the first drop of rain began to fall. The five of them scurried to close everything. Eijun and Kazuya nearly forgot their shirts, they didn't even bother to put them back on seeing as they were going to get wet anyways.
They all took their time walking back to the house. Kazuya thought it was little odd that they were just strolling home in a thunderstorm but it was actually quite relaxing to be drenched by the rain, laughing with the Sawamuras. They were nearly at the house when all of a sudden Eijun yelled "Oh crap!" and started running towards the house.
"Oh my. He forgot about the futon didn't he?" Emi shook her head and the smiled at Kazuya. "Looks like you and Eijun will have to share tonight."
Kazuya stopped walking. "Huh?"
"We only have the one extra futon right now, I'm sure Eijun won't mind sharing his bed. Oh boy, I can't wait for a bath!" Emi stretched her arms over her head and continued on into the house. Eiji and Eitoku passed him up too but Eitoku stopped and patted his shoulder.
"I feel bad for you. You've got a rough night ahead of you. Eijun's a restless sleeper." Kazuya's face went red as Eitoku followed the others.
'I was just given permission to sleep in the same bed as Sawamura wasn't I? God. It's going to be a rough night in more ways than one.' He frowned slightly, were all Sawamuras out to kill him?' He sighed and made his way into the house.
Eijun was currently hanging up the futon on the porch out of the rain to dry. Kazuya smirked and quietly walked up behind him.
"So your Mom and Grandpa gave us permission to sleep together." Eijun jumped at the voice then processed what it had said and he turned to Kazuya with wide eyes.
"What?!"
"We were given permission to sleep in the same bed since you left the futon out in the rain." Kazuya clarified.
"O-oh okay. I was just planning to sleep on the floor."
"In your own house? No way!" Kazuya hooked his arm around Eijun's shoulders and the younger stiffened as Kazuya leaned in next to his ear. "Just sleep with me." He pulled away and winked at the pitcher. "Okay?"
Eijun's face went scarlet as he stared at the catcher with a mortified face. "You're so embarrassing. Oh my God!" He exclaimed and Kazuya just laughed. As he did, towels were laid on top of their heads.
"Okay love birds, towel off, you two can bathe after your Mother." Eitoku said as he wiped his face with his own towel.
"We're not like that Gramps!" Eijun denied and covered his face with the fluffy towel. "At least not yet." He 'thought' and pulled the towel away. Eijun glanced at Kazuya who had a bit of a shocked face but then his lips pulled back to give him a smile that was all teeth. 'Oh shit! Did I say that out loud?' Eijun mentally freaked out and pushed his face back into the towel. Kazuya just reached up and ruffled the pitcher's wet hair.
"It's okay. We can bathe last. You guys have been outside all day right? Please, go before us Sawamura-san." Kazuya said as he pulled his hand away from Eijun.
"Oh? You sure?" Eitoku asked.
"Absolutely."
"Well thank you then, we'll do that."
"No worries, it is your house after all." They shared a laugh and Eitoku left to bathe.
"I'm not bathing with you." Eijun mumbled underneath the towel.
"Come on, it'll be just like at the dorms." Miyuki smiled at Eijun.
Eijun pulled his face away from the towel and narrowed his eyes at the catcher.
"I don't ever recall bathing at the same time as you."
"Ah...you know, I think you're right." Kazuya said thoughtfully.
"Besides." Eijun's voice fell to a harsh whisper. "Considering what happened earlier. I don't think it would be appropriate." His face was red and he started fidgeting with the towel. Kazuya smile went soft and he ruffled Eijun's hair again.
"Okay, okay we'll take turns. I'm just teasing you." Eijun's eyes briefly glanced up to his then dropped to the floor.
"O-okay. Umm, we should go grab dry clothes. Gramps and Dad don't usually take long to wash up."
"Oh? So is that where you get your crow habits from?" The embarrassed look dropped from Eijun's face and was replaced with an irritated one.
"I hate you." He grumbled and started to walk away towards the stairs.
"Hahaha, I don't think you do." Kazuya laughed as he followed him.
