GX – GX

Aster was sitting on the docks on Duel Academy one night, looking at the stars and thinking about everything that's happened since he had first gone there. He sighed and thought, 'My life is a complete mess. First, my father dies, and then I get betrayed by two people who I was supposed to see as guardians. Can my life get any worse? …Well… hopefully I can just put it all behind me and move on, but…' Aster's thoughts got interrupted by the sound of footsteps behind him. He quickly turned around and saw Satorious standing there. "Oh… Satorious, it's you." Aster said as he looked back at the ocean.

Satorious sighed and sat down next to Aster before asking, "Are you still mad at me? I said I was sorry."

"And I said that you don't have to apologize. It wasn't your fault, alright? So, quit it." Aster said.

"…I'm really sorry."

Aster growled and yelled as he stood up, "I just said 'quit it'! Stop trying to make yourself feel bad! For the love of Ra, it wasn't your fault!" He yelled, and then started stomping away, but Satorious stood up, grabbed his hand, and made Aster look back at him.

"Aster, I was saying sorry for saying I'm sorry." Satorious said, and then ended up pulling Aster close and hugging him.

Aster wanted to pull away, but for some reason, his body wouldn't let him so he just stood there. Then, he started to lose his senses bit by bit. 'His arms… they're so welcoming… so loving… so… warm.' He thought and wrapped his arms around Satorious and clung to him, almost desperately as tears slipped from his eyes.

After a couple minutes of staying put in the loving hug, Satorious pulled back just enough so he could then pick Aster up by the waist and place his forehead against his. "Aster…" He whispered before kissing Aster on the lips, gently.

Aster would have probably pulled away if it wasn't for one little detail. Aster had lost too much of his senses to care. So, instead of pulling away, Aster wrapped his arms around Satorious' neck and deepened the kiss. Then, he started thinking. 'His lips. They're so... they feel so… right against mine.' Then, he felt Satorious' tongue slip into his mouth when he parted his lips the slightest bit and start to slowly map out his mouth, which Aster couldn't help but moan the slightest bit at. 'His tongue is so wet… and warm. It feels good. It feels… so right.' Then, that's when Aster realized what was happening. His eyes quickly shot open and he pushed Satorious away which made him fall onto the docks.

"Holy Ra, are you alright, Aster?" Satorious asked.

"What the hell was that?!"

"…I believe that's what people call a kiss."

"I didn't mean it like that!" Aster yelled. "I meant, why did you just kiss me?!"

"…Because I love you."

"L-Love? …Y…you love me?"

"Yes, I do. I have ever since I was old enough to know what love really was."

"Oh yeah… and what do you think love is?"

"It's…it's…it's kinda hard to describe, but I think I can sum it up a little bit." Satorious said, then took Aster's hands into his and looked into Aster's eyes. "To me… love is what you feel when you're with the person you feel strongest about. You feel like you never want to leave their side. And when you make that person laugh or smile, you just feel so happy that you were able to do it. Or when you make that person upset or hurt them in some way, you just feel like you could die." Satorious explained.

"…Satorious?"

"Yes?"

"…Do you know that that's what I've basically been feeling for you all these years?" Aster asked.

"Huh?" Satorious asked, sounding very happy that his dreams may finally be coming true. "Are you saying that I love me too?"

"Well… yes, I guess so?"

"…You guess so?"

"I don't know yet. I'm not positive yet actually." Aster said.

Satorious slumped, obviously disappointed. "Oh. Well… I guess you just need some time to think about it." He said, and stood up and began walking away.

Aster just watched Satorious start walking away before getting up and walking right next to him. "Are you alright? You seem a little down all of a sudden."

"Oh, it's nothing. I'm not going to try to rush you to try and figure out if you love me or not."

Aster leaned his head against Satorious' chest and sighed. "Have…have you been working out?"

"Huh? Well… yes, I have been hitting the gym lately."

"Well, I can see that it's working!" Aster said, and they stayed that way for a bit before Aster pulled away and looked up at Satorious. "…Do you want to go for a walk?"

"Sure!" Satorious replied without a second's hesitation.

So, they started their walk. As they started walking through the park, they started thinking.

Satorious: I never had this feeling before
He gives me shakes and shivers
I can't ignore
And I see that there's more now
Than just being free

Satorious laid down on the grass and looked up at Aster with shining eyes.

Aster: I never felt my heart beat so fast
I'm thinking of him first and of myself last
And how happy I want him to be

Aster then ran threw a field of flowers with Satorious running right after him.

Satorious: It's amazing someone in my life
Just might be loving me
I didn't know that I could feel this way

Satorious looked at all the fireflies flying around them and decided to catch a few.

Aster: It's so crazy
Something in my life
Is better than a dream
I didn't know that I could feel this way

Aster had just been looking at the fireflies, astonished, before realizing that some of the fireflies had made a circle around his neck, making him look like he was wearing a necklace and he smiled at Satorious.

Satorious: He makes me warm and happy inside

Aster: He smiled and I get dizzy and starry-eyed

Satorious and Aster had followed the fireflies to a restaurant and they smelled the food inside which made them both hungry so they went in and got a table outside. Then ordered a shared plate of spaghetti.

Both: All these feelings I have
Have me asking

Aster: Can this be love?
Satorious: Can this be love?

Aster: It's crazy

Both: I can hardly speak

At the same time: Whenever he
Says 'Hi'

Aster: I didn't know that I could feel
Satorious: I never dreamed that I could feel

Once the plate came, Satorious was about to leap right in and eat it, but then he looked at Aster and he took his fork and used it to push a meatball over to Aster's side of the plate. Aster just smiled before launching in to eat the spaghetti. Satorious smiled before they both started eating the spaghetti. Once it was all eaten, Satorious noticed that Aster had sauce on his lips that he hadn't licked away, and Satorious ended up leaning over and kissing it away before realizing what he was doing and separated to just look at Aster.

Aster just looked at Satorious before leaning over himself and licking the sauce off the side of Satorious' face. Once he had done that, they just looked at each other before Satorious scooted closer and they started cuddling.

Aster: I…

Both: Didn't know that I could feel
This way

-- Later that night --

Aster and Satorious were now near the ocean and were chasing the seagulls. They finally got tired and sat down on the beach.

"Wow! It's amazing how seagulls can be so stupid!" Aster said.

"I know! You can get a foot away from them before they finally decide to waddle away. Most birds don't even let you get 10 feet close to them."

"…Hey, Satori?"

"Huh?"

"What?"

"You said 'Satori'."

"I…I did?"

"Yes, you did. I know you meant to say Satori-ous, but it came out… Satori."

"Oh… sorry." Aster said.

Satorious just smiled. "There's nothing to be sorry about." He said. Then, there was a pause. "…Hey Aster?"

"Yes?"

"You know earlier when I… kissed you?"

"The first one or when we eating the spaghetti one?"

"The spaghetti one."

"Yes."

"Well… did you mean to do what you did after I accidently kissed you that time?" Satorious asked. "You know… when you…"

"Yeah, I know what you mean."

"Well, di…did you mean to do that or… not?" Satorious asked. "I mean… if you didn't then that's fine, but… I just wanna know."

"Alright. Well… I meant it."

"R…Really?"

Aster smiled and replied. "Yes… really. Hey… Satorious?"

"Hm?"

"You know how you were asking me earlier if I loved you or not?"

"Yes."

"Well… I think I'm positive about my answer now. I realized that no matter what… I always run back to you, and if that's not love… then I don't know what love is!"

"So… you do love me?"

"Yes." Aster replied with a nod, and then leaned forward a bit. "And if we're going to be lovers from now on, then shouldn't we… kiss to show it?" He asked.

Satorious smiled and whispered, "Yes." Then he closed the distance between their mouths with a slow, sweet, loving kiss.
