This was it, Watanuki was at school, now he just had to get to class and hope Doumeki didn't show or he wouldn't sit near him. As he sat waiting for class to begin, the ghost-magnet began thinking on how exactly he was going to handle this. The shock of Doumeki liking him had worn off with a not very good night's sleep. Now the other was nervous about what that, and the fact he didn't hate Doumeki for it, meant.

He had thought about it last night, racking his brain at the possibilty of the other liking him. In truth he didn't really mind it, especially when he remembered all the things the other had done for him, That fortune tellers words

'Could it mean that I like the bastard?!' His hands clutched his head as he reeled from that train of thought, mouth opened as though he were about to scream in pure and utter terror.

While other students looked at their fellow classmates with confusion, another classmate had seen the other throw fits before so he put a hand on a thin shoulder and shook, Finally noticing he was moving, he lowered his arms realizing were he was, he looked up to see the reason behind his horrified expression.

"AAAAAHHHHH!!! Y-you what are you doing!"

"Shaking some sense into you, idiot." Watanuki slapped his the offending hand away, blushing. Everyone elsed had already ignored the two, used to Watanuki's antics. Doumeki took this chance to lower his head next to the others ear.

"I need to talk to you at lunch." Watanuki didn't know what to say, so he nodded deafly.


Where was Himiwari when he needed her most? Damn it it was lunch time alreday and he could see Doumeki walking towards him. 'Oh shit, what am I gonna do, what am I gonna do?!' Doumeki sat beside his friend awaiting his lunch, and after a few minutes, he held out his hand.

"What?"

"Food."

"Bastard, is food all you think about?!" A bento was shoved at him hitting in the chest, he opened and began eating. Watanuki, watching the other, slowly reached for his own. Thoughts flowed through both teens heads, not sure of what to do or say, so they remained quiet. It wasn't until Doumeki finished that either of them spoke.

"Watanuki." Said boy, stopped in lifting his chopsticks to his mouth, to look at the other. Doumeki took this as a sign to continue.

"Yesterday, I'm glad that I kissed you." The archer was just as blunt as ever, even when it was something as life changing as this.

"W-what?" was barely heard from the other.

"I figured out awhile ago that I like you, and wanted you to know, does it bother you?" Doumeki was turned looking at the other now, gauging his reaction. Silence was either a good thing or the calm before the storm, just in case his hands were ready to cover his ears.

"W-why, why do you...uh, like me?" His food lay forgotten beside him, and if this wasn't so important the archer would have stolen some of it. Doumeki scooted closer.

"Isn't it obvious."

"Not really...explain."

"I don't know, myself, I just know that I do." Doumeki was inchig his way closer, luckily Watanuki hadn't noticed yet.

"Watanuki?"

"Yes." He turned several shades darker s he finally noticed how close the other was.

"Do you like me?" A few words had the kind teen reeling. He had figured out earlier. much to his despair, that he actually might like the idiot. This kiss wasn't so bad and the archers smile, Watanuki felt butterflies when he thought about it. Doumeki was looking at him, his eyes only slightly larger.

"I-I guess, maybe?" Doumeki smirked and closed the gap between him and Watanuki, placing a chaste kiss on the corner of the teens lips.

"Idiot!"

"So does this mean we're going out?" Doumeki was beaming on the inside, but he just kept his usual smirk. Not getting an answer he conitnued.

"I have practice today, once I'm done I'll walk you home."

"Don't tell me what to do, you jerk!" Watanuki stood ready to yell at his new boyfriend, the thought made him blush and cringe slightly at the same time.

Doumeki reached for the others hand, holding it as if at any moment Watanuki would pull away, and screech at him. An eep was heard from the shorter's lips as he muttered a 'fine'. The star archer released his grip as Watanuki handed him the rest of his bento. Doumeki decided to walk closely by the others side to the practice field, eating on the way. After they had left a bush rattled as Ichiro spilled out, his glasses glinting in the sunlight, a grin plastered on his face.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Practice was over and Doumeki was walking Watanuki home. They reached his apartment, taking off his shoes Watanuki sat down on the couch, the archer soon followed. He sarted to fidget, hands clutching at the fabric of his pants, not knowing what to do. A large hand covered his holding it.

"Do you have to go to Yuuko's tomorrow?"

"Yeah, I have to do house work for her, and she might have a job for me, why?"

"I wanted to take you out." Watanuki looked up at this, he turned his hand and laced his fingers with the archers larger ones.

"You mean like on a date?" His heart began to flutter, he could never remember possessing such a warm feeling for anyone, even Himiwari. Maybe he really did like Doumeki alot. The other just kept surprising him.

"I'll meet you outside Yuuko's tomorrow, if it's not too late, we'll go somewhere."

"I'd like that." Watanuki leaned to his side, head hitting the others shoulder, he smiled. Doumeki looked down at the top of black hair, a small smile crept it's way to his face. He placed his head on the soft hair, his arm wrapping around the small frame, hand still laced with Watanuki's. Maybe this is what his grandfather meant about him being happy.

After a time, they parted Watanuki lifting to get them refreshments, Doumeki held the others hand pulling the standing boy closer, giving him a peck on the cheek. Another blush, and the teen left. Watanuki smiled while he made melon buns, thinking he could enjoy this whole 'dating Doumeki' thing.

Meanwhile in the living room, Doumeki sat staring off into space. He stirred when a sweet aroma filled his nose. He made his way to the kitchen, staring at Watanuki. Said teen was wearing an apron, a flour covered hand resting on his hip.

"Oi." Watanuki turned, smiling at the other teen.

"It's almost ready." Doumeki noticed the flour streaked across Watanuki's forehead and stepped closer, wiping off the offending ingredient and giving the now clean brow a kiss.

This earned him a blush. Doumeki was surprised at how nice he was being treated, though he chalked it up to the newness of it all. Tomorrow everything would probably be back to normal, so he treasured his time alone with his new boyfriend.

Watanuki turned back to the oven, checking on their food. The archer wrapped his arms around the others waist, resting his forehead against the back of Watanuki's head.

"Stop that, you're going to make me burn the melon buns!" This only made Doumeki tighten his grip. Small hands finally, were able to pry apart Doumekis grasp, just in time to save his food.

"Now go, I'll bring the food in." He turned, pushing the archers chest, trying to get him to head to the living room.

"I'll help." That stopped the pushing, but a tray with a kettle of tea and cups were placed in his hands.


They finished their meal and Watanuki mostly carried on a light conversation, Doumeki adding to it every now and then. It was getting late now and as much as Doumeki hated to admit, he had to leave. Watanuki noticed the time too and fidgeted.

"It's late, my parents will wonder were I am." He sighed and stood up making his way to the apartment door, Watanuki close behind. They stood at the open door, memories of the last time they stood here caused the smaller to blush.

"So, I'll see you tomorrow." He was pulled into another hug, and kissed. He returned the kiss, Doumeki's tongue lapped at the others lips asking for entrance. Watanuki parted his lips, nervous about his first actual kiss. Sparks flew as their tongues touched, Doumeki dominating the kiss until they had to part, both gasping for air.

Watanuki was released from the hug, as his Doumeki pecked his boyfriend on swollen lips. Thats when he noticed the door was open and that any of his neighbors could have seen them.

"Idiot, don't leave the door open, anyone could have seen!" Huh, that didn't last long, so Doumeki did something only he would do, annoy Watanuki. He kissed the others flushed cheek and walked away, leaving the other shaking a fist at him and calling him not so nice names.
