Subaru couldn't even look up as he trailed along silently behind the two. Disbelief proved to be a powerful emotion, and he couldn't seem to push it from his mind. Here he was, trailing behind his sworn enemy from birth and the leader of the opposing force from his world. Glancing up, Subaru watched as Seishirou silently listened as Kanoe chatted on happily. Even as a teenager, she was busty, and had taken full use of it seeing as how she frequently pressed her chest into Seishirou's arm. Looking to the left at Seishirou, Subaru noticed him nod and smile at her, causing an involuntary pang in his chest.
"Mira-san, are you coming in?" Seishirou called to him. Snapping out of his reverie, Subaru stepped into the doorway opened by Seishirou. A slight gasp escaped Subaru's lips as he stepped inside, it was beautiful. The large room was traditional Japanese style, with beautiful hangings and rugs on the floor. Sitting near the back, Subaru noticed a small garden, causing a small smile. It reminded him of being at home, with his sister and grandmother, or in the house that he had inherited from Seishirou after his death. "Anything you would like, sir?" a young waitress asked. Smiling slightly, Subaru asked only for tea then headed to the bathroom. Washing his face with cool water, Subaru glanced up to study his face. He had one emerald eye, the other a honey gold color, and suddenly panic flooded him as Seishirou walked in.
"Are you all right, Mira-san?" Subaru tried to mumble a yes, but was stopped short by Seishirou grasping his hand above his left eye and pulling it down. "Ahh…yes. Beautiful green orbs deserve to be shown, not hidden. "Subaru gaped at him for an instant, before pulling himself together. "Shouldn't you be out there with your girlfriend, Sakurazuka-kun?" Seishirou grinned slightly. It never ceased to amaze Subaru how mature this teenage boy was, he would have forgotten he was the teenage version if not for the fact he was barely taller than him. "Mira-san…does it bother you any, that Kanoe is with us?" Subaru blushed faintly. "No… why?" The blush deepened as Seishirou stepped closer, almost chest to chest with Subaru. "Because, your face gave you away. What? You think I didn't notice that you were unhappy?" Subaru sighed deeply, mainly to try and steady his heartbeat. Involuntarily, his eyes closed and he groaned slightly as a whiff of smoke, sakura, and another unnamable scent enclosed his senses. Looking down, he noticed Seishirou was making small circles in his palm."I…I'm sorry. I…I have to go now…" Subaru said quietly, trying to escape; his movement forward only allowed Seishirou to now fully enclose him in his arms.
Taking two steps back, Seishirou had Subaru's back firmly planted against the wall. "Tell me Mira-san, why is it you're here?" Seishirou whispered against Subaru's neck, with a well-placed knee between the smaller man's legs. "Agh…I… I don't know Seishirou-san…" Subaru whispered, trying to hold on to sanity by gripping his hands together tightly. "Yes, you do know. You wouldn't be here if not for a reason. Besides, the way your body is reacting, you've wanted this for a while." Small tremors began to rack Subaru's body as Seishirou's mouth paired with movement of his body caused Subaru to see white. Though his mind screamed stop, his body
refused to be denied as he ground into Seishirou's leg for better stimulation. Panting, the last traces of sense began to return. "No…no, Seishirou-san…no…no!" Subaru called out as the teen started to grind harder and faster into him. Panting faster and clutching onto Seishirou, Subaru felt his limits reached as he called out and came.
Subaru dropped his head and closed his eyes to steady his erratic pulse when another customer came in. "Oh…sorry…" the man began in a stutter. Looking over his shoulder was Kanoe's pretty face, along with her long black braid. "Sakurazuka-kun…are you alright in there?" In an instant, Seishirou pulled away looking dapper as ever leaving Subaru disheveled and slightly shaken. "Oh, did you get sick Mira-san?" You don't look to good" she said with a smile. Seishirou smiled and grabbed Subaru's arm. "He's fine. Now let's go have tea."
Various times throughout their stay in the restaurant, Subaru caught himself blush, so he was constantly trying to avoid the eyes of the two teens. While Kanoe yapped on, Subaru caught himself staring at Seishirou. His eyes were locked on Kanoe, and his pleasant smile was on, but Subaru knew he wasn't listening. Suddenly, he turned over in Subaru's direction and winked, causing an intense blush to rise instantly. Scowling to hide his embarrassment, Subaru placed his hand on his chin and looked out at the small garden to think. He thought on he and Seishioru's past, how he had opened up and learned to love him, and tried to express that to him. He thought of how many times after Hokuto's death he found himself yearning for Seishirou's presence, emotionally, and physically. He thought of how many times he replayed the feeling of his hand going through his first and only love's chest, feeling the warmth of his blood and slowing beat of his heart until…nothing, except for the last words of truth uttered from his lips specifically for Subaru. And now… he thought of that same love brought back to him, taking him in and pushing his limits, yet causing him to fall deeper into his charms. It was unimaginable to Subaru, the thought that he might be able to be happy again. It took him a few moments after his thoughts to notice both Kanoe and Seishirou staring at him
"Are you all right love?" Kanoe stated with a blink. It took a few moments for him to realize, but touching his cheek he noticed the many trails of salty liquid that now stained his face. Seishirou stood and helped Kanoe up. "Thank you for coming today, I think it's time we took our leave. We will walk you home." Subaru grimaced s he walked with Kanoe back to her home, and scowled even more as they turned to head back home. Subaru had expected a tsunami of questions, but was instead greeted with silence, which only made him more irritable. Arriving at the apartment, Seishirou stopped and grabbed Subaru's hand. "I'm sorry if I forced you today, It seems I couldn't control myself." It took Subaru a few moments to keep from chuckling at that statement, but he replied a quick it's ok. Leaning against the building, hand in his pocket, Seishirou continued. "When I was little, I saw this choker I liked a lot; I don't know why I bought it because it was meant for a girl's neck, or so I thought. When I got older, I visited a fortune teller who brought it up. She said I would know when the time came." Subaru nodded, a little forlorn to
hear about Seishirou's future wife, probably Kanoe. "Here, this is for you." Subaru's eyes misted as he looked at the handcrafted choker with a yin and yang symbol attached, but instead of little circles inside, there were two opposite pointing stars. Words didn't come to him as he just stared, allowing Seishirou to wrap him in a hug. "Alright…I'll tell you." He whispered against Seishirou's shoulder, praying it was the right thing to do.
Eep...so I finished the 4th chapter. I would like to apologize if I mess up with the san's and kun's, it gets difficult to keep track of. bows head in shame. But, just so you know, sometimes Subaru calls him san from pure memory. I thank all of you who read and give me tips and help me to keep writing!
