This is totally what the prompt asked for.


Day 25 - Gazing Into Each Others' Eyes

There was determination that shone brightly in those cloud grey eyes of Kaito's. On the other hand, Chris' sapphire blue eyes remained calm, and kept focus on the other pair of eyes in front of them. They could not and would not blink. Their focus would remain unbroken. The silence was tense, but it only aided in helping them become better than the other. And they were absolutely certain that the other person would lose.

Kaito's eyes began to twitch as he struggled to keep them open, not allowed to use his hands to keep the eyelids from meeting. Chris' eye had a glimmer of a tear in the corner as it became desperate for some moisture. But even still, they did not blink. They were determined.

In a moment of weakness and a lapse in thought, finally, Chris' eyes surrendered, blinking a few times to try and regain moisture. When they had stopped and he had looked at Kaito, the younger man had a smirk on his face. Oh, God damn. He had lost.

"Guess who has to wash up now?" he mocked, finally blinking himself. He welcomed the feeling.
"I don't see how a staring contest settles who does which chores," Chris said.
"You're only annoyed because there's a lot to do," the other replied.
"There's no issue with being annoyed at so many items to wash. In my place, you would be arguing, as well," he reminded him, before getting up to the dishes as punishment for his loss.

Kaito was going to pay for this later.
