The Day She Found Out

It had been about a week since Ryuugamine Mikado and Kuronuma Aoba had confessed to each other on top of the hill overlooking Ikebukuro. Since then they had seen each other at school but hadn't done anything that you would consider lovers doing. This was mainly due to the fact that Mikado wanted to keep their relationship secret. Particularly from Sonohara-san, Mikado couldn't bear the thought of her finding out, just picturing her seeing the two of them together made him shiver.

At the end of the day Aoba waited for his new lover to finish up with any class rep work that he had, much like he did on the day that he confessed his love. Of course, there was one major difference, the presence of Sonohara Anri. This was something that Aoba detested. Although he did actually like her as a person, he saw her as a rival and a threat to his relationship. Not only this, but with her being there he wasn't free to be with Mikado in the way he wanted, but there was nothing he could do about this and he simply put up with it.

"Mikado-Senpai! Are you all done for the day?" Aoba asked with excitement as Mikado left his classroom.

"Not quite, we still have to take these books to the staff room… Would you help us?" he replied hoping Aoba would say yes so that he didn't have to carry as much.

"Sure! If it means you'll be done quicker!" Aoba grinned at Mikado which caused the black haired boy to blush. "You really are adorable" Mikado thought to himself, he may have even said it aloud if Sonohara-san wasn't in the room behind him.

Mikado turned around to face Anri who was cleaning the room. "We're heading up to staff room, we'll be back soon"

"Ah, ok, I'll be leaving a little later today, so go on ahead."

This reply caused a great deal of excitement to well up inside of both the boys. This meant they were able to be close to each other for the rest of the day. They walked out of the classroom and down the hallway to staff room which was already empty, the teachers clearly wanting to get away quickly on a Friday afternoon.

Aoba dropped the books onto the teacher's desk with a loud thud and quickly spun round to face his boyfriend. He grabbed Mikado's collar and pulled him to his own height so that he could kiss him.

"Sorry, I couldn't wait any longer" Aoba said, blushing as he pulled away from Mikado's lips.

"It's fine, I was feeling the same way" Mikado replied as he lent in to kiss Aoba on the cheek.

Both boys smiled at each other before leaving the room. As they walked back to the classroom to collect their stuff there was a slightly awkward silence between them. Mikado was certain this was due to the fact that Aoba wanted to do more than just kiss every now and then, but he wasn't sure how to approach such an embarrassing topic. He began to think about how he was going to talk to Aoba about this when-

"Hey, Senpai, can I come over tonight?" Aoba asked in a quiet voice, he too must have been embarrassed by the situation.

"Su-sure, there's not a lot of room but-"

"Really!? Yay! I'm so happy!" Aoba was elated at Mikado's response, he was grinning with joy about being able to go over to his boyfriend's house. He even began to walk faster just so that they could hurry up and leave. By the time Mikado had reached the classroom door Aoba had already been in and gotten their stuff, he simply smiled and handed Mikado his bag, to which he replied with a smile as well.

The two walked out of school as snow was beginning to fall, they took Mikado's usual route home going through the centre of Ikebukuro. As they continued to walk home Aoba tried to hold hands but Mikado refused, albeit begrudgingly, given how many people were around.

Snow was building up on the shoulders and in the hair of the two boys as they began to get close to Mikado's apartment, by the time they got back the snow had soaked through their coats all the way to their blazers.

"Wait there, I'll get some towels." Mikado told Aoba as they walked through his front door.

"Ok, I'll wait here" Aoba grinned as he said this.

As Mikado was getting a couple of towels he began to wonder what he should do, here he was in his home, alone with his boyfriend. Was Aoba expecting something to happen between them? Would he be fine with letting that happen?

Mikado had a lot of questions but he decided to ignore them and just let the evening play out and see what happened. There was no need to be nervous, though he couldn't quite get rid of the feeling.

Mikado returned to Aoba, whilst drying his own hair. Aoba was still waiting patiently at his front door, Mikado approached him with the towel and placed it over his and began to rub his hair. Once Mikado had realised how close they were to each other he blushed a little, but Aoba looked so adorable he couldn't help it. Mikado leaned down and kissed Aoba then hugged him, both still in wet clothes.

"You really are adorable, Aoba-kun"

"Hmmm? What was that?"

Aoba obviously didn't quit hear Mikado with the towel still over his head.

"Nothing" Mikado couldn't help but smile.

"Senpai, do you have a spare pair of clothes? It's uncomfortable being like this…" Aoba trailed off looking at Mikado in hope that there would be something for him to wear.

"Umm, of course I have spare clothes… I'm just not sure any will fit you" He looked Aoba up and down judging his size, and noticing that Aoba was actually fair amount smaller than himself.

"I look and see what I've got" He walked back into the room and opened up the closet and had a rummage around. "What have I got for Aoba to wear…?" he thought to himself.

He returned to Aoba holding a t-shirt and a pair of shorts.

"Sorry, this is all I have spare at the moment, everything else needs washing"

"That's fine" Aoba smiled gratefully and Mikado and proceeded to drop his trousers and take off his blazer and shirt.

Mikado blushed at the sight and turned around to face the other way.

"Wh-what are you doing?! You should do that in the bathroom!"

Still standing in just his underwear Aoba replied:

"It's not like it matters, we're going to see each other like this"

"Turn around, Senpai" Aoba urged in a calm voice

Mikado wasn't sure what to do. Aoba made a valid point, they ARE going to see each other like that at some point. He just wasn't prepared for it to be this sudden. He slowly turned around to look at Aoba, he instantly took note of his boyfriend's body, he had a slender body with firm muscles, not an ounce of fat anywhere, nor was it overly muscly for his size. Mikado felt his heart beat rise a bit as he saw this. Mikado stopped himself from looking a little lower… that would have been moving too fast.

"See? There's nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed about" Aoba said with a smile on his face. He proceeded to put on the oversized shirt and shorts that Mikado had given him.

Mikado laughed at the sight, Aoba looked ridiculous wearing that, but as long as it was more comfortable than his uniform then it didn't matter. Mikado also changed but couldn't do it in front of Aoba so he went into the bathroom, completely disregarding what Aoba had said to him previously.

"Ah. I left my gym kit at school…" Mikado realised as he walked out of the bathroom.

"Sorry, that was my fault." Aoba replied apologetically after remembering that he was the one that rushed to pick up their bags.

"Don't worry, I'll just get it on Monday" Mikado smiled at Aoba to reassure him that it wasn't a big problem.

The two sat down in the main room of Mikado's home wondering what to do.

"Sorry, I don't have a TV or anything, only my computer…" Mikado felt embarrassed about his lack of facilities, but usually he wouldn't need anything more, it was only ever him that was in the room, and he was almost always online, whether it be on the Dollars site or a chatroom.

"Then we could stream some anime or a film?" Aoba left the options open for Mikado to decide upon.

"Oh~ , so you're an anime fan, huh?"

"Well… err… yeah, kinda" Aoba had an awkward smile on his face, obviously slightly embarrassed by the fact he still watched anime, almost religiously.

"Then, is there a particular series we should watch?" Mikado was intrigued by anime, his parents had never let him watch a lot of anime as a child as they didn't want him to be an Otaku…

"Hmmm, then, Mondaiji Tachi ga Isekai Kara Kuru Sou Desu You"

Mikado searched for it online whilst being shocked that a series could have such a long name.

After the first episode had finished Aoba asked what Mikado's impression of the series was, and he was unsure, so much random stuff had occurred that it was hard to keep up, but the series seemed promis-

Aoba interrupted Mikado's train of thought by kissing him. The suddenness of the kiss shocked the black haired boy so much that when Aoba pulled away, his mouth was left agape. The blue haired boy took this opportunity to give his lover a french kiss. This shocked Mikado even more, but this feeling was quickly washed away by the sheer pleasure of the sensation of their their moist tongues intertwining with each other. Aoba began to push Mikado backward and the two fell onto the floor with a small thud. Mikado was now laying down with Aoba on top of him. The one on top didn't let off with kissing. Their tongues were constantly moving in each others mouths. Saliva was beginning to escape from the gaps between their mouths as the kiss continued. The blue haired boy even ran his tongue along the top set of Mikado's teeth in a way that he found quite sensual.

The two separated from the passionate kiss to catch their breath before going again. Both had clearly been waiting for this to happen for a while, which had caused Aoba in particular to become impatient. As Aoba went back in for the second kiss he moved one of his hands up onto Mikado's cheek as he put his tongue into his mouth. He slowly began to move that hand up into Mikado's thick black hair and caressed it. Meanwhile his other hand slowly slipped up underneath the older boy's shirt which he had just put on. Aoba felt the soft, supple skin on his fingers and began to trace the line of Mikado's body.

The once nervous Mikado was now fully immersed in the experience. Any nervousness that he would have normally felt was completely overshadowed by Aoba and his intense movements. He couldn't believe he was doing this, nor could he believe that he wasn't doing anything to stop it, but it just felt way too good.

Sonohara Anri had noticed Mikado's gym bag in the classroom as she left earlier so had decided to drop it off on her way home, it wasn't that much of a detour to get to Mikado's apartment by the station. As she climbed the steps to Mikado's door she heard people out of breath coming from inside. Before knocking on the door she looked through the window. She dropped the bag when she saw the sight inside the room. Her best friend and their underclassman doing those sorts of things. Before she knew it she was running. Running as fast as she could so that she could get away from there. She didn't understand why she was running though, she couldn't feel love, so this didn't make sense. Yet Saika inside of her was going berserk, constantly repeating "Cut. Cut. Slash. Aoba. Cut. Slice. Slash. Ryuugamine. Cut." It was as if Saika was jealous of something, or someone. It took on the emotions and feelings that she herself should be feeling. This was the first time that the enchanted Katana had spoken a person's name.

There was a faint thud outside the room as if something had been dropped but the two lovers ignored it, not paying attention to anything but themselves. The next episode of the anime had started without them even noticing.

"A-Aoba-kun" Mikado finally got out, still out of breath. "I think this is as far as we should go for now…" he trailed off, worrying that he might have offended his boyfriend.

There was a slight look of disappointment in Aoba's eyes but that quickly vanished.

"Yeah, you're right. We haven't even been on a date yet."

"Then, how about we go see a film tomorrow? You can stay here overnight."

Aoba's eyes lit up. "That sounds great!"

"I only have one futon though…" Mikado sounded a little concerned, then a little boost of confidence came over him, Aoba's personality must have rubbed off on him. "But we could always share…"

Seeing his boyfriend suggest this Aoba moved over to Mikado and gave him a hug.

"That sounds great." He said in a calm tone whilst resting his head on Mikado's shoulder.

"I'll get the futon out now then we can finish this series, there's only nine more episodes I think"

Mikado had gotten the futon out and the two had climbed in together under the blanket. His eyes had gotten heavy by the end of the fourth episode and didn't even see the opening of the sixth episode. He had fallen fast asleep. He rolled over and placed his head against Aoba's chest. Noticing this cute action Aoba reached over and turned the computer off. He then placed one arm around Mikado and settled down himself, gently embracing his lover.

In a whisper he uttered:

"Good night, Mikado-Senpai"
