Finally, they were going on to the main objective of this trip. It was nice to meet up with Fuji Syusuke and Fuji Yumiko, though Mizuki didn't appreciate the fact that Fuji Syusuke had forgotten his name on purpose again.
Yuuta wondered what Mizuki-san was going to buy; the older boy had such unique (strange) taste. The younger boy guessed he would know soon enough. Maybe it wasn't such a bad thing to tag along.
Mizuki already knew what he wanted to get, he had got everything planned out already. Now he just had to look for them.
Without any hesitation, Mizuki headed to the various sections for the presents and paid for them promptly.
He had, of course, done some research beforehand. Prices compared, quality checked. Mizuki was most certain that everything he bought was very suitable.
Yuuta just followed the boy around blindly. Mizuki was really fast at getting those items. It took less than thirty minutes before they found themselves at the cashier.
Yuuta wondered why Mizuki-san had asked him to go Christmas shopping together if they wouldn't be spending a great deal of time browsing and choosing.
Then again, you never need a reason when it comes to spending time with the person you love. Because, you just want to be with him.
"What did you get, Mizuki-san?" the younger boy's curiosity kicked in as he peered over the paper bags.
"You want to know? I'll let you know…" Mizuki said in a low voice as he passed a few bags to Yuuta.
"Well, I guess you can look…" the older boy smiled darkly, "…if you help me with these."
"O-okay…" So this was why Mizuki-san had dragged him here.
Of course, that wasn't the real reason why Mizuki had asked him out.
Mizuki could never cope with loneliness; or rather he was afraid of being alone. Dormitory life suited him, in this way; he would always be around people.
However, as the days passed, he realized that always being around people wasn't enough. He needed attention and not everyone could give him the attention that he wanted.
Only Yuuta could.
As they walked down the streets, Yuuta rubbed his hands together, it was getting cold.
Mizuki chuckled and draped his purple and white scarf around Yuuta's neck.
It was already evening, the vibrant Christmas lights fell softly on the two.
As they continued to stroll, Mizuki showed Yuuta what he had bought.
Tea leaves for his grandparents. (Top grade tea leaves, of course).
Lacy curtains for his parents. (They were white and not purple, surprisingly).
Tidbits and miscellaneous toys for his older sister. (And her family as well).
A hot water flask with purple flower patterns for his second older sister. (That scared Yuuta a little. He never knew flasks could come in such bright designs.)
Mizuki got presents for the team as well. ("Of course, I love my team! Nfu")
Yuuta peeked into one of the paper bags on his hands. There was only one bag… for the whole team?
Whitening lotion? Yuuta bet those were for Akazawa-buchou.
"Everyone should have silky, white skin like me!" Mizuki eyed the boy.
There were ribbons as well. They looked strangely liked Kisarazu-senpai's.
They were available in an assortment of colors, actually shades of purple; ranging from lavender, violet, and indigo to lilac.
"These are for Kisarazu-kun, he should vary his beloved accessory sometimes! Besides, he can share them with Kisarazu Ryou-kun as well."
"I thought you gave him that ribbon…" Yuuta said as he examined the items in the bag again.
"A rubber duck?!" Yuuta threw an inquiring glance at Mizuki.
"So Yanagisawa-kun won't be lonely in the bathroom!"
Yuuta didn't want to think about that.
The younger boy then held out a piece of cloth with lavender prints on it.
"That's for Nomura-kun. He did a really good job taking care of the clubroom, and I noticed that the rag was so off color. He ought to get a new and better one." Mizuki smirked.
"The purple roses… look nice…" Yuuta raised a brow as he looked through the remaining objects.
"I'm glad you like them, Yuuta-kun!" Mizuki grinned. "They're for the rest of the members."
"I see…"
"Don't worry; I've something for you as well… Nfu."
Yuuta wasn't looking forward to it, even if it was from Mizuki-san.
Not long after, the pair finally reached Mizuki's door.
"Well, Mizuki-san, I'll be going back to my room."
"Hold on, Yuuta. I've something for you."
The boy pulled something out of his pocket and held his hand up.
Mistletoe.
"You know what mistletoes are for, don't you?" Mizuki enquired.
Of course Yuuta knew what they were for, Aniki had always loved them.
Mizuki put the bags down, Yuuta followed suit. He gazed into his senpai's deep blue eyes, they were entrancing.
Subconsciously, Yuuta pushed Mizuki against the wooden door and pressed his lips against Mizuki's, hands on the other's waist. He tasted Mizuki's lips patiently. Mm… Strawberries.
Mizuki leaned comfortably against the door, mouthing Yuuta's name into the kiss as he ran his hands through the other boy's cropped hair.
He nibbled the edge of Yuuta's lips softly.
Yuuta stuck out his tongue, a tad faster now, to explore the inner depths of Mizuki's mouth. The older boy did not resist, but parted his lips willingly. Yuuta placed his throbbing tongue and moved it clumsily around the other's.
They parted after a few moments, panting slightly, breathing in and out.
"My roommate is not in…"
"I'll help you bring the paper bags in…"
"Thank you, Yuuta-kun…"
Only Yuuta could fill the emptiness in his heart.
