Day twenty six: favorite
Sometimes, Haruka would ask Rin or Makoto to help him with his work when they were available. Of course, most of the time he asked when he knew either man wasn't busy, and the author only begged once (with it being the day before having to turn in one of his final manuscripts), and ever since then, they would agree without complaints.
"You know what?" Rin said out loud, as he was looking over Haruka's latest works, focused on each sentence. The two were sitting in their bed, Rin sitting up with his legs crossed and Haruka was at his side, hunched over and typing away. "Something's been on my mind lately..."
"Hmm?" Haruka mumbled, eyes not leaving his computer screen. "What is it? Find any mistakes? Does anything sound stupid?"
"Your writing. It really is good, and it just keeps on getting better. Definitely not stupid." The statement made Haruka's face flush, blue eyes meeting with red. "Hey, I mean it! Honest!"
"You and Makoto say the same thing..." he sighed, taking a drink from his bottle of water. "You could just be honest about it, you know."
"That's because we're right, and I'm being completely honest. Otherwise you wouldn't have the shelf in the living room with all your fancy writing awards to prove it." Rin just smiled, nudging the author with his foot. "Someday you'll have more things than me, just wait!"
Haruka just rolled his eyes, perking up slightly when he heard the front door open.
"Haru, Rin, I'm home!"
"Bedroom!" Haruka called, picking up his laptop and moving, so that he was inbetween Rin's legs and resting comfortably against his chest.
Footsteps got closer, and Makoto opened the door, seeing the two in bed and put a hand on his hip.
"You two being lazy again?" Makoto laughed. "I swear, most days when I leave and come back you're always here."
"Rin's helping me look over some things," Haruka said. "Since I have to get a certain amount done by the end of the week and I don't want to spend a lot of time revising and tearing my hair out."
"He basically made me his slave, Mako, it's awful!" Rin pouted, and then yelped when Haruka elbowed him in the ribs. "Hey, that hurts! You fight dirty..."
"You agreed to it when I asked." he shrugged.
The brunette just smiled, loosening his tie and crawling into the large bed, resting against Rin's right side. He glanced over at the papers in his hand, pushing his glasses up to read along with the redhead. The threesome sat in comfortable silence aside from the sound of Haruka typing, focused on their work.
Blue eyes would glance over at Rin and Makoto, watching them point out things and nod, flipping pages over. It made him nervous, even though they had done this for him many times before. Once they finished the last page, Rin collected the papers, kissing the top of Makoto's head and put the stack on the bedside table, looking over and catching Haruka who was staring.
"Well?" Haruka raised an eyebrow, closing his computer.
"It's good, more than good. Don't worry." Makoto put his hand on Haruka's, lacing their fingers together and rubbing his ring. "I'm sure the rest of it is just as fantastic. It really was interesting, I can't wait to read the whole thing."
Haruka sighed, leaning back more into Rin's chest. "I hope so. I haven't been really...feeling it, lately. I don't know why..."
"Don't worry too much, you always manage to tough things out." Makoto took off his glasses, setting them ontop of the stack of papers to his side. "Are you two hungry? I could start dinner, if you want..." The tallest went to roll out of bed, but Rin grabbed him by his shirt.
"Stay." Rin said, pulling Makoto back to him. The teacher didn't struggle, getting himself comfortable once again on the bed. Rin ran his fingers through brown hair, massaging Makoto's scalp gently, making him sigh happily. "This is probably one of my favorite things, you know."
"Hmm?"
"This." Rin pulled the two men closer to him, resting his head on Haruka's. "Just us after a long day, relaxing, together, in bed. I love it."
Haruka smiled. "I love you."
"Me too." Makoto added, nuzzling into Rin's side.
Rin just laughed, stretching his legs out. "I love you, too."
"Now that you mention it..." Makoto shifted, getting on his side. "This is really nice. I mean, of course there's in the mornings when we wake up and then when we go to sleep, but we nearly don't do this enough."
"Well, then I guess we need to do this more." Rin winked. "Seems perfect enough, right? We could always have snacks, too. Maybe a movie or something while we're at it."
"Speaking of snacks..." Haruka said, biting Rin's arm. "I'm hungry, so dinner right now sounds pretty good."
"Then can we come back to bed?"
"Of course."
Rin sighed, looking down at his two lovers at his sides, thinking that they looked as comfortable as he felt.
"...exactly how hungry are you, Haru?" Rin asked, earning a shrug. "Well if you're not dying, I'm not moving."
Haruka was silent before shrugging again, yawning as well. "Fine."
"You okay with that, Mako?" Getting no response, the redhead tilted his head, pushing brown locks upwards and smiled, seeing Makoto fast asleep, breathing softly. "I'll take that as a yes."
He felt Haruka move slightly, knowing that he was falling asleep himself. Rin leaned, placing a kiss on Makoto's head and then to his left, to do the same to Haruka.
"Yeah, this is definitely my favorite." Rin smiled, closing his eyes and lacing his fingers with Haruka and Makoto's, drifting off as well.
