Just wanted to something a little shorter and warmer. I felt I somewhat ignored their school life so this is more of a throw back to that. They are definitely cute together.
Soft Pair
The warm feeling of being in an embrace was something that Naoto only recently discovered. Sitting on her boyfriend's futon in said boyfriend's arms as she read the book that was long time recommended to her. Heat radiated from the room's air conditioner, saving the two from the draft of winter. Her school jacket draped over the arm of Souji's love seat next to his own. Normally she would feel slightly uncomfortable about her appearance but it's only Souji and if anything he's seen it all already. She sighed, one of contempt, relaxing into the firm body behind her. In return the his arms tightened ever so slightly, giving a renewed feeling of comfort, safety and warmth. She felt his body shift, his actions reflected what he wanted his hands to do on the controller as his attention was mostly on the game he was playing.
It had been a long day at school. While it wasn't exactly intense for the two of them (Being at the top of both of their respective classes) it just dragged on. The attraction and desire to be in each other's space was becoming too much and just wanting to chill out and relaxing together was stopping them from concentrating on the day's activities. Naoto shoved the thought aside, for once not caring just how selfish it sounded. She was well in her right to feel needy. Considering the enthusiasm of her boyfriend at her request to go back to his place was enough to settle that she wasn't the only one feeling the distance even though it had been just under 24 hours since they last spent time with each other. Maybe the looming aspect of him leaving had accelerated her feelings and her ability to express her love for him but she didn't care. If anything one of the most important things she learnt over this year was that she only did live once. Take the opportunity by the horns and make the most of it.
She felt him twitch, probably at a point in the game that tested his reflexes. She didn't mind that his focus wasn't on her right now, she was just happy he was there. Subconsciously she leant further back into him, Causing him to readjust himself. Lifting his head slightly so she could tuck her head into his neck. His chin rested lightly on her crown, the small movement of affection was enough for her to blush slightly. Their shuffle alerted their pair of watches as the digital clock on the display momentarily changed to distance figures while bleeping loud enough to make their presence known.
'Distance 1m'
Naoto couldn't help but look at her wrist and blushed deeper at what it was saying. It was so routine but something about it always made her feel woozy yet powerful. It always brought a sense of passion in the young detective and reminded her just how much this whole arrangement meant to her.
"I love you." She heard him mutter against her cobalt blue hair, giving her small kiss while carrying on with his game without a second thought. Doing what he did like it was the most natural thing in the world. While his words hit home, striking a direct hit to her heart but she couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy at just how easy it was for him to show affection and speak his mind like that. It's that obnoxious confidence was one of the reasons why she just couldn't' get enough of him.
She sighed again, marking the edge of the page before closing the book.
"I love you too."
She could feel him grin against her.
"I'm glad. Would be a shame if it was a one sided feeling." A scoff left her lips knowing that he only said that to rile her up a little. That's fine, she'll show him.
Leaning forward slightly, she pushed the pause button on his controller causing his attention to be pulled away from the screen. With a small look of curiosity, his eyes travelled down as she turned slightly to face him.
Their eyes met.
"I hate the way your words affect me." She got a raised eye brow in response.
"And I love how you make me feel just by being near you." Firm arms closed in dropping the controller against the futon, now holding the embrace true. Leaving the game a distant memory all too quickly.
Cheater
"That's not fair and you know it." The whisper was breathless, soft as her brain felt that she was floating on air. Her cheeks deepened as she was smitten all over again. Leaning up she pressed her lips against his instantly showing her intent. She felt his large hand on her lower back and the other on her shoulder bring her that much closer. It was a confidence booster, in a rare move, a small tilt of the head allowed the tip of her tongue to run lightly against his lips to signal she wanted oh so much more. Souji obliged parting his lips slightly meeting her half way. The deepening of the kiss just made Naoto grasp his shirt like that was her life line to reality as her brain went to that familiar place whenever she was in his arms like this. Their tongues danced as she felt his lips against hers, the texture still rough from the winter breeze from 30 minutes prior. The feeling that awaked within her made her elicit a moan which felt part fitting but also part scandalous. It should be illegal on how it made her feel.
Her brain suddenly caught on to his taste, the soft minty taste that reminded her of their trip back from school as they shared sweets. Combined with the taste of Souji, it was all too intoxicating for her making it all too easy to be lost in him. Her hands slid up easily making a mess of his hair as they continued to kiss intensely.
After what seemed to be an eternity, Naoto pulled away, short of breath, her cheeks now a shade of red but way too far gone to care. The Detective's unfocused eyes analysed her boyfriend and noticed he was just as undone as herself. His hair now ruffled and messy due to her actions, a light blush evident on his face. She could feel his chest rise and lower as he tried to get his breathing steady.
"I've been waiting all day for that."
Souji's face morphed into a small smile, happy that he had that effect but more relief that he felt the same way.
"Yeah me too." Her eyes fluttered trying to keep focus. However they narrowed in frustration finally giving up on trying to make logic of it all. She leaned back into him so she could just hug him tighter.
She'll figure it some other time...
