Chapter 2
"What's wrong?" Sendoh asked.
He stared at his lover atop him, thinking what was confusing him. It was a week ago when that incident with his sempai happened. But he could still feel Mitsui's lips on his. And he deliberately yearned for his sempai's kiss and trying to satiate that desire with his lover's touch and kisses. But it was not enough. It was never enough.
"Nothing." Rukawa replied and pulled Sendoh towards him for another kiss. He closed his eyes as his lover returned the kiss intimately. He could feel Sendoh's hands exploring his body with much expertise and he moaned with pleasure. But as he closed his eyes, another man with black hair and blue eyes was appearing before him.
Sendoh ground his hips towards his lover's groin eliciting a gasp from the other. Sendoh wanted more than just kisses and caresses and Rukawa knew that. But he couldn't bring himself to surrender to his lover's needs.
He pushed Sendoh off him, surprising his lover.
"Where are you going?" He heard his lover asked in bewilderment as he rearranged his disheveled look. "Home."
"You're going home at this late hour?" He again heard Sendoh queried but he was already out of the room and running towards the street away from his lover's flat. He ran as fast as he could, not knowing where his feet would bring him.
Soon enough he found himself in front of his school. He looked towards their gym and was surprised to see that it was lighted. He went inside the school gate and towards the gym and peered from an ajar sliding door.
Standing away from the three-point line with arms perfectly angled, ready to raise the ball, he knew perfectly who it was. He waited for Mitsui Hisashi to shoot a perfect three point shot before silently entering the gym.
Mitsui held the ball and was about to have another shot when all the lights of the gym went out. He turned around sensing someone's presence nearing. Through the moonlight passing by the windows of the gym, he could see the silhouette of someone with skin as white as snow and eyes matching the color of his.
Rukawa walked towards Mitsui and pulled him into an embrace. He didn't know why he did this but he knew that every time his body touched his, reason was already illogical. Everything was right when he's with him. Everything.
Rukawa kissed Mitsui fully on the lips ferociously filling the hunger that he has for the man. He could feel Mitsui's tongue sliding to his mouth and he accepted it graciously. He didn't want this to stop, just like before. He wanted everything of Mitsui.
With Mitsui's touch, everything surrounding him was a blur. He craved for this man and he was making sure he'd get what he wants.
He took off Mitsui's shirt as Mitsui took off his and bit at his nape with pure passion making him moan aloud, craving for more. They stumbled towards the floor already naked and still craving for each other's touches and kisses.
Rukawa pulled Mitsui for another carnal kiss, but his sempai gradually slowed the kissed making him moan with pleasure as Mitsui's tongue graze his abdomen, his chest and stopping at his neck sucking and biting on it, marking him his.
And he didn't refuse it. He wanted it.
Rukawa curled his fingers with Mitsui's, kissing it sensuously. And Mitsui kissed his hand back, slowly licking his palm, tracing small circles gaining another moan from his kouhai. Rukawa could only smile inwardly, realizing that he was still wearing the ring Sendoh had given him and he could see that Mitsui was never intimidated by a sign reminding that what they were doing was illicit. How ironic isn't it, sempai? You kiss and caress me but knowing that I belong to another man, you still want me. And that makes me want you more.
He could feel Mitsui's arousal grazing on his thigh sensing his need, but Mitsui only stared at him as if doubting, asking for permission. His sempai's blue eyes told everything he wanted to say. You're giving yourself to me even if you have Sendoh.
Rukawa didn't understand it but words weren't necessary when they're together. They communicated with their eyes and kisses and Rukawa just knew right then and there that he wanted to feel Mitsui inside him. And so he kissed him amorously. Don't doubt sempai. Make love to me.
And Mitsui understood.
They lie there naked with their limbs entwined, contented and feeling for each other's heartbeat. Mitsui could feel Rukawa's soft breathing, aware that the boy was asleep with his kouhai's head on his chest. He smiled when Rukawa snuggled closer to him. He cuddled closer to Rukawa, adjusted the boy's head, placing it on his arm.
He stared at the younger boy silently memorizing his features keenly. He gently caressed Rukawa face admiring its smoothness and touched his lips, which was still bruised from their long lovemaking. He kissed him again, slowly licking Rukawa's lower lip as if teasing.
His kouhai stirred and opened his eyes as if to say that he didn't like being disturbed. Mitsui could only grin mischievously at him. As though sensing his playfulness, Mitsui was pulled into another kiss and another round of lovemaking.
Weeks passed and Rukawa continued his secret affair with Mitsui, stealing kisses in between practice breaks and when everyone else has already gone home.
"Sempai."
Mitsui turned around fully knowing who was calling him. Both of them knew that their relationship would be a secret. A secret well kept that neither of them even talked about it or admits it.
"One-on-one?" Rukawa asked.
"Yeah." Mitsui replied. It was past ten and they were the only ones left in the gym. Mitsui looked at Rukawa's hands and found no ball. Raising a brow at his kouhai to signal his question, he then saw a glint of sensual slyness only Rukawa could muster.
"What kind of one-on-one?" Mitsui asked as he played along with Rukawa's mischief.
"This one." Rukawa replied as he pushed his sempai against the wall, giving him a feisty kiss that left Mitsui breathless. Rukawa coiled his arms on Mitsui's neck and tilted his head to one side.
"Game?" Rukawa asked.
Mitsui gave a naughty smile for an answer. Do you know how erotic you look just by doing that?
"Good." Rukawa whispered before claiming Mitsui's lips again.
They engaged in a more heated lip-lock, ravishing each other completely. Rukawa could already feel his sempai's growing arousal and knew well enough that his sempai could feel his also, and he wanted more of it. He pushed his body against him and was feeling more aroused when he heard Mitsui moan with desire.
He kissed Mitsui again, sliding his tongue inside of Mitsui's mouth relishing the sweetness of his sempai's moist cavern. And he was encouraged more when Mitsui wanted to battle for dominance.
Suddenly, as if awoken from a trance a loud sound was heard from the gym. Pulling away from Mitsui's lips, Rukawa turned towards the door where a person was standing. And he could only stare with the same expressionless face he always has at the person before them.
Sendoh Akira—his lover—the man whose love and trust he betrayed.
Sendoh could only stare with solemn astonishment at what was presented before his eyes. Sendoh wanted to shout and cry and clench his fist but staring at Mitsui and Rukawa with lips pursed was all he could do.
Rukawa made no effort to move away from Mitsui nor did he look surprised being caught with another man— especially by his own lover. All of a sudden, Sendoh ran away from them not cowardly but as if he saw no one.
Rukawa could only stare at his lover's retreating figure. As much as his mind wanted to move away from Mitsui and run after Sendoh, his body betrayed him. Or was it his own will not to run after his lover?
Rukawa was in deep thought when Mitsui cupped his face and gave him a sweet soft kiss. At once, Rukawa forgot about Sendoh and his own betrayal. But the kiss was stopped short even before he could answer it. He stared at Mitsui and was quite confounded when he saw his sempai softly smiling.
"Go after him." Mitsui said without taking his hand away from Rukawa's face. "Let me go."
It hit home. Rukawa now realized why he didn't felt any guilt when Sendoh caught him with Mitsui. It was he all along. It was he all along who didn't want to end the affair. He knew it was a stained affair— a wrong one— but he didn't stop himself. He didn't want to stop himself because he was willing to give himself to Mitsui.
As he now stared at his sempai withdrawing away from him, his sempai who was ready to let him go, his Mitsui sempai, his illicit lover, his confidant, for the first time in his life Rukawa couldn't decide. And he wanted to cry.
