WARNING: Be prepared for the CHEEZINESS that follows.
- Chapter does contain right now slight BL. mostly Shounen-ai
It was like thousands of tiny fireworks exploding in Iwais head.

A funny sensation. But wonderful.

He pressed closer to Shinomiya;

Wanting no needing more.

But both teens broke from each other, weither it be need for air or other wise.

Panting slightly, Shinomiya breathed out Iwais name.

" Iwai. --Let -. let me go get changed..."

Takuto simpily released his grip on his friends wrist. nodding slightly.

Watching as Shinomiya took towards the showers.

Ten minutes later, a still slightly damp Kouji appeared.

" Takuto..- Shall we.? " Shinomiya stated; nodding toward the dorms.

Nodding slightly, Iwai followed the steady gate of his friend.

Breaking the silence that had given birth over their small walk. Shinomiya broke it asking quietly
" Iwai - How are you ? "

" I...Im fine. You ? " Iwai answered, glancing up into Shinomiyas face.

Everything about Shinomiya is perfect...His face is all finely angled not to sharp nor to soft ...just perfect.

" Iwai.. Iwai are you listening to me ?"

"Huh? Aa. Sorry. "

Shinomiya gave a small sigh.

" I said were going to go back to your room ok ? "

" Y-yeah thats. fine.."

He could feel Shinomiya eyes lingering on him.
It made him uneasy.

So he looked up, Grey eyes meeting Shinomiyas Dark blue ones.
He gave a slight reasuring smile.

" Shinomiya...Im okay, you can relax. "

The simple reasurance, gave him a complex reaction.

He watched them flicker over Shinomiyas face.

Surprise.

Embarrassment.

Blankness.

Uncomfortableness.

Understanding.

And a few others.

Embarrassed himself by Shinomiyas somewhat unusual reaction, Iwai lowered his head; pale face flushing.
Only to be brought back to attention; when Shinomiya clapped a firm hand on his shoulder, resting it there gentley, a smile on his face.

" I know Iwai, I know. "

---

In a few minutes. Both teens had climbed the stairs and where making the last few solitary steps to Iwais dorm room.

Iwai stepped infront of Shinomiya, slidding his key into the lock, and opening the door.

Both stepped into the lit room. Shinomiya making himself comfortable in the room he had become quite familiar with over the past week.

Iwai offered some beverages before he too sat by Shinomiya, a whole new embarrassment befalling him.

Was it just - just a kiss to him ?

Did it matter at all ?

" Have you been able to paint anything yet ? " Shinomiya asked, glancing around for the ever present easel and canvas.

Iwai looked around also, for no apparent reason.

" Yah a little bit, still hurts. "

He recalled the wonderful feeling he got as Shinomiyas lips we against his own.

How he needed to be closer to the archer, to Shinomiya.

Then, he thought about having it happen again.
But in order to do that...he would have to kiss him first.

Now for such a thought to cross Iwai mind, was almost unheared of.
For the meek artist to imagine himself instigating something like that was also unheared of.

But do it he did.

The need for that kiss that had set off fireworks in Iwai, was strong enough to battle back the very essence of Iwais being.

So with courage new, and determination strong.

Iwai arose from his spot and stood infront of Shinomiya.

And leaned in.

Meeting at the lips.

Re-igniting those fireworks.
Those wonderful fireworks.

Shinomiya surprised at first, slowly let Iwai dominate the kiss, before letting his competitve nature kick in.
As he snaked his large calloused hands up beside Iwais face; framing it.

And kissed him more fully, more completely, more desperately than ever before.

He too arose from his chair, standing taller than Iwai.

Iwai seeking balance as his knees grew weak, when Shinomiya deepend the kiss, latched his nimble fingers onto the loose folds of Koujis shirt.
Shinomiyas tounge darted along Iwais lips, gaining access as Iwai gasped.

They had some how during the heat of their kiss, moved from the small kitchen into the Bedroom.

Shinomiya still dominiring the kiss he and Iwai were sharing, backed his fragile friend into the matress.

Knees buckling under the gentle pressure of the matress behind him, Iwai fell, Shinomiya still holding him close manuevered himself to the side as to not crush Takuto.

Their lips parted, as they lay there looking at each other adoration apparent in each set of eyes.

Shinomiya reached down and grasped Iwais small hand in his larger one.

Two figures, small and large so close, and attatched only by the hands and hearts, rested beside each other.

Iwai was amazed. Utterly amazed.

He had never witnessed let alone such passion as the passion he felt now.

He felt the subtle shift in the matress as Shinomiya rolled unto his side, proping himself up on his elbow looking down at Iwai.

" I love you Iwai ".

He placed a gentle kiss on Iwais nose.

" I love you so much ".

Kissed Iwais flushed lips.

" Love you ".

Trailed his lips along Iwais delicate jaw.

Before long he was just murmuring soft words against Iwais heated skin.

God I love you.

I love you so much it hurts.

Shinomiya was unbuttoning Iwais loose shirt, slowly and deliberatly.
But stopped as he heared a small choked cry from above him.

He stopped and raised himself from Iwais torso.

Iwai had drapped both arms across his face.
One covered his eyes, the other let the back of his hand fall across his mouth.

He was shaking gentley, trying to control the cries.

But Shinomiya pulled himself closer to Iwai, before taking the thin arms in his hands and taking them away from Iwais face.

Iwai was crying.

Hurt inside, thinking Iwais tears were because of him.
Shinomiya let Iwais arms drop to his sides and placed the palm of his rough hands on the damp surface of Iwais cheeks as he ran his thumbs gentley across Iwais eyelids, brushing away the tears.

" Im sorry Iwai. I didnt - ".

" I - Its not you S-shinomiya...Its just...just I love you so much...a-and I-I dont understand how..."

" How I can love you ?"

He just recieved a subtle nod from Iwai.

" Its not hard at all Iwai. Not hard at all to love you, I love the way you smile, your eyes, your nose, your fingers, and hands, I love everything about you Iwai. Even the scars...I love you. "
With that said Shinomiya took up Iwais wrist, un ravled the loose bandages and ran his lips against the scarred flesh.

" I promise you. That I love you the most. "

Iwai watched as Shinomiya graced each small scar with small kisses.

Before long though, he was longing again for those lips to be on his.

" Shi - Shinomiya..."

Understanding Shinomiya abandoned the scars and adorned the still quivering lips with his own.

Iwai looped his finger around one button on Shinomiyas shirt, tugging gentley on it until it popped out of its designated slip.

Shinomiya chuckled. As he grasped his own shirt in his hands, and unbuttoned it quickly, exposing soft tanned flesh that skimmed over muscles.

Iwai blushed as he ran is pale fingers over Shinomiyas muscles, it was so smooth and hard. But warm.

He was now very embarrassed at the thought of having his own shirt removed.
But Shinomiya did anyway.

Exposing soft plae flesh, that soon was ravaged by Shinomiyas eager mouth.

Shinomiya Lowered Iwai unto the bed. Placing himself beside him with carefulness.

Kisses were met with kisses, touches with touches.

Iwai dropped his hands from exploring Shinomiyas chest. And let himself get lost in the sensations Shinomiya was creating as his fingers ghosted over his flesh.

Those fingers were daring, they drifted closer and closer to their all to intended target.
Before they sneakily slipped underneath the stiff fabric that was now stretched tightly; peaking gentley.

The fingers searched deeper. Under a second Cloth.
Going further still until they came upon ...-

" Sh- Shinomiya ! "
