Angel Kiss
To give someone an angel kiss, kiss them very gently on their eyelids or on the spot right next to their eye, using just your lips. It's a very romantic way to wake someone up or say goodbye.
Fai has always looked most beautiful while sleeping, Kurogane thinks. He doesn't know what it is exactly. There's just something about how Fai's blond hair shifts as he breathes, chest rising and falling in a slow and steady rhythm. His lips are parted slightly, and when Kurogane lies close he can feel the breath brush gently against his cheek. He smells of spearmint and lilies and even of ice in the night.
It's the only time he isn't jabbering with his speech speckled with lies, the only time Kurogane is able to think in peace. Yet time after time he finds his thoughts returning to the man asleep on his bed, and when Fai shifts with a sigh the ninja can't help but turn to look at him with a gaze far gentler than it is during the day.
Fai's thoughts are far away from the other man as he dreams. His dreams (or perhaps, it would be more accurate to call them nightmares) featuring a recurring character.
"A…shu…"
Kurogane never needs to hear the whole name. It's evident enough from the tear that runs down Fai's face who he is dreaming about. The mage dreams about his king often, much more often than Kurogane would like him too. Kurogane leans over, bed creaking beneath him, and places a soft kiss on the corner of Fai's eye, his lips barely brushing the skin. Fai stirs a bit at the touch.
"Ku…"
Kurogane smiles. Fai really is most beautiful when he's asleep.
