Hold Me Tight

A Mizuki x Sano One-Shot

I'm safe.

Safe in his arms.

Being close to him made her feel so afraid, yet secure at the same time.

Mizuki breathed in the scent of Sano.

He smelt like musk and aftershave.

Sano smiled in his sleep.

Her cheeks flushed, reddening instantly. Staring at the boy lying next to her, she drunk in his sharp features.

Dark hair.

Long eyelashes.

Thin lips.

Chiseled jaw.

Sano is undeniably strikingly beautiful.

The boy eyes fluttered wide open.

"…Mizuki?"

The girl cringed.

He caught me ogling at his face! Eep…I'm such a dweeb.

"S-sorry! I did- didn't mean- mean to be rude. Did I wake you?" Mizuki jumped out of Sano's bed and hid her face behind her hands.

Sano chuckled and shook his head. "No, no…it's okay. You didn't wake me up at all. Don't worry about it." His gaze lingered a moment longer on the girl. Her attire was…well, how would any boy put it?

Mizuki's disheveled hair, the large t-shirt draped over her scrawny shoulders, and her slim thighs were revealed due to her extremely tiny shorts. The embarrassed look on the girl's face caused her to appear more sweet.

"Come back to bed," Sano patted the pillow suggestively.

"Eh?"

Mizuki Ashiya's heart throbbed wildly. Just thinking about their bodies pressed against each other made her body go out of control.

Sano's mouth tugged up at the corners and his eyes smiled softly.

"Come, Mizuki…"

Obligingly, with a red face, the girl shuffled back to her room mate's bed and climbed in with him.

Strong, toned arms wrapped around her tiny waist and a soft squeal escaped Mizuki's lips.

"What?" Sano questioned.

Mizuki grinned. "It tickles when you do that."

The older boy's smile broadened. "Yeah?"

"Yes."

And the boy of her dreams never let go of his hold surrounding her.

They fell asleep to the soft ticking of the clock, the air conditioner's hum, and the steady breaths of one another.
