Author's Note: Surprise, surprise! It wasn't done yet! ((catgrin)) I got so many wonderful reviews with the last chapter that I absolutely had to write a fourth chapter! But this WILL be the last chapter. I'm still trying to graduate, you know.
Warning: Uh…not much, actually. Crazy author who's got caffeine withdrawal and in therefore not in a happy mood and the art teacher doesn't seem to be able to get that through her thick skull. Oh, yeah. Tad more sap. But that's because Koichi's lacking sleep again.
Disclaimer: I do not own these characters. And somehow, I think, if CLAMP ever found out what I was doing to them, they'd decapitate me, mound my head over the fire-place with Sorata's hat in my mouth, chewed gum on my nose, and a can of beer balancing on my head with sunglasses on my face and hippie beads around my neck.

Chapter Four: Aftermath

The sunlight coming through the window warmed Subaru's face the next morning, as the Sumeragi lay asleep in bed. The young man curled up underneath the blankets and snuggled closer to the man next to him, who unconsciously put an arm around Subaru's waist. Subaru opened his good eye and smiled softly at Seishirou. The older man looked so peaceful in his sleep, his face calm and the ghost of a smile on his lips.

Subaru remembered the previous night's activity and let out a small, content sigh. It had been wonderful. More than anything he could have imagined. He reached up and brushed Seishirou's hair out of the older man's eyes.

Seishirou's eyes opened and met Subaru's. "Ohaiyo, Subaru-kun."

"Ohaiyo gozaimasu," Subaru replied.

He sat up. Well, tried to anyways. Hissing slightly, Subaru lay back down. His entire body hurt. Seishirou leaned over with worry in his eyes.

"You okay?" he asked.

"I hurt. A lot," Subaru replied.

"Ah, yes," Seishirou nodded. "It will for a while. Let me go draw you a hot bath. It will help."

Subaru blinked at Seishirou. The older man blinked back.

"What?" Seishirou asked, confused.

"You're cute when you're worried."

Seishirou frowned at the younger man. "I'm never cute."

"Uh-huh," Subaru smiled.

Seishirou ignored Subaru and got out of bed. He was still undressed from last night, but he didn't seem to care. He went into Subaru's bathroom and a few moments later, Subaru could hear the water running in his bathtub. The Sumeragi waited for a couple of minutes, and then Seishirou came out and walked over to him.

Seishirou picked Subaru up and carried the younger man into the bathroom. Subaru closed his eyes as Seishirou set him into the warm water. Already, he felt better. The heat of the bath took away the ache in Subaru's muscles. He released a sigh.

Suddenly, he felt Seishirou put his hands on his back. His eyes snapped up and he turned his head to see Seishirou sitting in the bathtub behind him.

"Seishirou-san!" Subaru protested.

"Oh, come now, Subaru-kun," Seishirou replied. "After last night, you're worried about being in the bathtub with me?"

Subaru flushed at his embarrassment. He turned away from the other man with his face still a bright scarlet colour. He took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly, with a slight moan, as Seishirou's hands began to rub gently at his back and shoulders. Relaxing completely, Subaru's eyes slid closed once more. His breath quickened slightly as the older man's lips replaced his hands on his neck.

"Sei…shirou-san…" Subaru murmured, gasping out the last syllable as Seishirou's hand brushed up against him.

Seishirou smirked into Subaru's neck. Then, he moved upwards, licking softly at the sensitive skin just behind the younger man's ear. The Sumeragi shivered at the sensation and a small mewl escaped his lips. Seishirou's fingers stroked softly at Subaru's submerged erection.

"Ah…Sei…shirou…san…"

Taking Subaru's earlobe between his teeth, Seishirou continued to play with younger man. Subaru let out a strangled cry that sounded like a mix of a mewl and a moan. Seishirou chuckled at the sounds that escaped his lover. Truly, he enjoyed finding out just what kinds of sounds Subaru could make. He absently thought about cataloguing them and how he got them.

Subaru managed to somehow break free of Seishirou's grip. Turning around abruptly, he pulled Seishirou close and kissed him fervently. He put his arms around Seishirou and forced his tongue into the older man's mouth, surprising Seishirou. To think that Subaru would actually take the initiative was…shocking, to be honest.

Seishirou fought Subaru's tongue and quickly won the upper hand. He brought Subaru as close as possible; so close that their erections rubbed together, causing both of them to moan into the kiss they shared. Seishirou's hands ran along Subaru's back, feeling the soft skin of the younger man. They reached further down and gently squeezed, causing the Sumeragi to break the kiss and push himself forward.

Subaru's mind was spinning. All he could think about at the moment was being with Seishirou, melting together as though the two of them were one. He didn't care that their activity was splashing water from the tub to the floor of his bathroom; it could always be cleaned up later. Nothing mattered to him, except for Seishirou. It felt so good and so right to be like this with the older man, despite their hard past together. All the pain that the Sakurazukamori had caused him, all the lies and the betrayals were forgiven. Seishirou meant the world to him and Subaru couldn't let him go.

"Subaru…kun," Seishirou moaned. "We should…stop."

"No…we shouldn't…"

"Subaru-kun…we'll drown if we keep going."

Subaru paused to think. He took a moment, pouted slightly and then kissed Seishirou's lips gently. "I don't think I care."

Seishirou smirked and kissed Subaru back. Subaru straddled the older man and cupped his hands around Seishirou's face. The kiss deepened, Subaru thrusting his tongue between his lover's lips. He let his tongue wander the insides of Seishirou's mouth, relishing the taste of the Sakurazukamori.

As Subaru kissed him, Seishirou put his hands on Subaru's waist and stood, lifting the younger an out the water. He stepped out of the bathtub, carrying Subaru with him. The Sumeragi's hands slipped down from Seishirou's face, his arms wrapping around the older man's neck and his legs around his waist.

Subaru broke away from Seishirou just enough to breathe. Then, he let out a purring sound as Seishirou nibbled gently at his neck. He felt Seishirou take them back into the bedroom and then set him on the bed.

Seishirou forced Subaru to let go of him. The younger man pouted. Seishirou chucked and straddled his lover, kissing Subaru once again. When he released his prey from the kiss, he got a shock when Subaru flipped him over and pinned him down. He let out a low moan as Subaru bit at his throat, leaving a small bruise.

"S-Subaru-kun…?" he asked.

"A mark," Subaru smiled, "to show that you are mine."

Kamui turned the corner, heading towards the apartment complex where Subaru lived. A wrapped package in hand, the amethyst-eyed teen walked on. He was hoping to surprise Subaru with the gift he had bought, with Arashi's help.

He did not know until it was too late that he was being waited for. Kamui cried out as strong arms grabbed him suddenly. He was pulled into an alley and thrown into a wall.

"Hello, Kamui-kun," a pair of smirking lips purred.

"F-Fuuma!"

"I wouldn't go up to the Sumeragi's place just yet," the taller boy said. "He's a bit…occupied."

Fuuma's tone of voice was hinting that the two of them do something similar to what was going on in Subaru's apartment. And if the way Fuuma spoke wasn't evident enough, the boy's hands gave everything away. Kamui whimpered as his Twin's Star's fingers dipped blow his waistline. The present for Subaru fell to the ground as Kamui's hands began to move on their own.

((Author's Note: That scene is dedicated to SuperSeme Fuuma and Kamuichan99.))

Later that night, Subaur and Seishirou lay in bed. The two had spent the day together, just glad to be in each others' company. They later wound up going to Seishirou's apartment for the night. The older man had cooked dinner and after they ate, the two of them had gone to bed.

Now, Subaru was fast asleep, curled up comfortably next to the man e loved. Seishirou was still awake. He had a few jobs to do and the Tree was nagging to be bed. However, Seishirou was quite reluctant to leave Subaru's side. Plus, he didn't think he could get up without waking the younger man.

Subaru moaned in his sleep and snuggled closer to Seishirou. The older man smiled at his lover and kissed Subaru's forehead. He told the Tree to sod off and closed his eyes. The jobs could wait and he would feed the Tree the next day.

For now, he just put his arms around Subaru and fell asleep. If he could see the two of them from an aerial view, he would have seen that the two of the seemed to fit together like two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.

Haunted Quill: Again, thanks for pointing out the mistake last chapter. I fixed it. As for the rest of the review…I nearly choked on my drink, it made me laugh so much. Thank you! You're officially my favourite reviewer for this fic.
Feye Morgan: Your poor socks. Yeah, I can imagine you didn't want your parents to wake up. They always ask what you're doing and why you're reading "gay porn." The fluff was easy and I loved writing it. And thank you for the compliment on how I've improved. It means a lot! Look forward to the next chapter of To Rewrite Destiny. I should be updating soon.

I'm anal retentive when it comes to pronunciations and such. The author's note you mentioned in your review, I loved writing that one. I agree. They so don't know what they're missing.
Sapadu: Not so much having sex, but making out at least. She leaves before they have sex. Because I am an evil little bitch and CAN.
