I'm Ready.

I just changed my name to Karin Mazaki, please make a note of it.

Rin woke up at dawn still resting on Sousuke's bare chest. He sat up and immediately felt an ache from his backside. He never bottomed before and he decided he needed more sleep to recover. His lover's chest made for a nice pillow and he snuggled back down. A strong arm pulled him close and he fit naturally in Sousuke's space. Sousuke pulled the blanket back over their naked bodies and said:

"It's too early."

"Yeah." Agreed Rin, with a smile on his face. He wrapped his arm around his lover's waist and cuddled him. As the lovers began to fall back to sleep, a thought occurred to Rin. He couldn't deny it as he was so happy. He whispered:

"I'm ready."

"What Rin?"

Rin blushed as he realized what he was about to confess. He hid his face in Sousuke's chest and his smell filled Rin with warmth.

"I'm ready, Sousuke. I'm finally ready to give Haru up and accept your love."

Rin heard Sousuke's heart beat faster.

"Do you mean that?"

"Yes. I love you Sousuke."

Sousuke's heart skipped and Rin was pleased he had that kind of effect on the guy.

"I love you so much Rin." Sousuke cuddled Rin.

Rin knew he needed to say more. He needed to apologize for the trouble he caused.

"I'll always love Haru as a friend."

Sousuke sighed, maybe one day he'll understand Rin's attachment to Haru.

"But he never returned my feelings."

Sousuke stroked his hair and Rin felt encouraged.

"He had Makoto and Makoto loves him and takes care of him. In return, Haru loved him and protected him from his fears. I was jealous. I wanted that kind of love for myself. I thought I could only have that with Haru."

It sounded like Rin was sad and lonely at the time. Sousuke understood the feeling and kissed Rin's temple.

"Then you blew back into my life and I finally knew what it was like to be loved. To have someone get jealous over me and demand my attention. I'm sorry I wasted so much time on someone who would never love me back. You loved me unconditionally and last night proved it. For the first time, in a long time, I fell asleep in peace and contentment. The moment my eyes closed I knew I loved you."

Rin sat up and ignored the ache. He looked softly at Sousuke and said:

"I love you. I really love you."

Sousuke looked at Rin with all the love in his heart and said:

"I love you too. I'm glad you finally return my feelings, but it's still too early. We can talk about it, later in the morning."

Rin nodded his head and snuggled back into his spot. Sousuke re-covered them with the blanket. The couple slipped back to sleep with sighs of contentment. They had so much to talk about but their future as a couple was now secure.
