The gushy parts in this chapter is for you!
Genrou couldn't help a slight frown when the reached his door step later that night. He sighed, giving Dr. Ri's hand a light squeeze and looked up to him, taking a moment to study his handsome features in the luminescent glow of the porch light. He didn't want this night to end ever. It was beyond perfect, and his dream had come true. Dr. Ri smiled down at him, and Genrou felt his heart skip a beat.
"Genrou, no da... You do understand what you're getting into, right?" he asked softly as he reached up and brushed his red hair back from his face. Genrou reached up and gently took his hand in his, kissing the top of it gently.
"Yeah, I do. An' I told ya that I would do anythin' I had t' do t' be with ya."
Dr. Ri smiled more and gently touched his face. Normally he wouldn't have approved of such a relationship, especially because of their age difference, and their professional relationship. If anyone found out that he was getting romantically involved with a minor patient, he would for sure lose his career and worse. But he didn't even think about that much. He felt like he had known Genrou for years, and that they had some sort of special connection. Perhaps ... he could say it now ... what he really wanted to tell him?
Genrou beat him to what he wanted to say. The teen brought the doctor's hands up to his lips and pressed another soft kiss to them. "I love you..."
Dr. Ri held his breath, feeling a light blush spread across his face. Genrou was doing it again ... reading him like an open book. He smiled again, and took a moment to look down into his eyes. They were a beautiful amber color, and they held all the passion in the world. That was one thing that attracted the doctor to the teen. Genrou had free spirit with a real zest for life even though fate had delivered him some serious blows. It took a lot of strength and courage to get back up on one's feet after situations like that, and Genrou did it all on his own. 'Not anymore though,' Dr. Ri thought to himself. 'From now on, I'll be here for him.'
"I love you too, no da." And with that, Dr. Ri leaned down and pressed a gentle kiss to Genrou's lips.
Neither were sure how long the kiss lasted, but both knew that it was the most wonderful thing in the world and they never wanted to be out of each other's arms. Genrou slowly opened his eyes and looked up to his doctor. "Can I see you again this weekend?"
"If you wish, no da. Tomorrow?"
"That would be nice... An' we can go t' th' movies?"
Dr. Ri smiled once again and kissed Genrou gently on the forehead. "I would love to, no da."
"Great. I'll give ya a call then."
"I'll be looking forward to it, no da... Good night, Genrou."
"Good night, Dr. Ri..."
Genrou watched the doctor until he was in his car and drove out of sight. Even after that he didn't go inside right away. His movements were slow as he pulled off his shoes, almost as if he were in a dream... a wonderful one at that. The house was dark on the inside. Regina and Erik had already gone to bed. Genrou looked absently to a clock on the microwave as he passed the kitchen. It was only 11 o' clock.
When he got to his room, he didn't even bother to change into his night clothes. For a long while, he stared up and the ceiling, then reached up and hugged his pillow to him with a happy sigh. "Life couldn't be better," he whispered to himself. He closed his eyes and let his mind start to wander to the events that night, and then to what Dr. Ri had said before their first, real kiss. Genrou was well aware that society wouldn't be understanding. In fact, he had given that a good deal of thought before he even considered taking this step with the doctor. But that was a sacrifice he was willing to make. Sure they would have to be sneaky about their relationship, but that didn't bother him at all. As long as Dr. Ri knew how he felt, that's all that mattered to him.
Then a thought came to him. One that wasn't new, but one that he hadn't focused on too much. Dr. Ri had a whole career ahead of him still. Would he be willing to give that up if he had to in order to be with him? Or would he just walk away? Genrou frowned at that. Dr. Ri didn't seem like the type that would just walk away like that. But he also seemed like the type that was dedicated to his career as well. Genrou hoped that it wouldn't have to come down to that. The doctor's happiness was the most important thing to him. He didn't want to lose him.
Genrou shook that thought of his head. Obviously if Dr. Ri was that concerned about his career, he wouldn't have even suggested spending an evening together. And didn't he say that he loved him too when he told him his true feelings? Genrou sighed and moved his pillow back behind his head. This was complicated ... something he wasn't used to, yet he couldn't get enough of it. He wanted to be with Dr. Ri that second to talk about it more. But perhaps tomorrow at the movies? After words would be a perfect time. They would be alone, and the drive would be long enough, but he knew that Dr. Ri would pull over anyhow. Maybe at some park where they could relax outside and not be so tense? Well ... at least so Genrou wouldn't be so tense.
"I'll do it tomorrow," Genrou promised himself as he pushed all thoughts out of his head, except for ones of the tender kisses and the romantic evening he had spent with the man he adored.
