Reward: Love
Chapter 2
It's 5 o'clock when Fuji arrived home. After changing his clothes, he went to the living room and turned on the TV.
"Knock..knock." Someone is knocking his front door.
"Must be Eiji." Fuji got up and answered the door.
"Nya, Fuji! How are you? I missed you so much!" Eiji hugged his best friend straight after Fuji opened the door.
"I missed you too, Eiji. Come on in." Fuji dragged him in.
Fuji noticed two plastic bags Eiji was holding.
"Ne Eiji, what's that?"
Eiji looked at the plastic bags and show it to him. "I want to cook something for you, nya. You must be tired after work, right?"
"Thank you, Eiji. Well, why don't we start cooking? I'm getting a little hungry."
Fuji then dragged Eiji to the kitchen and they start cooking for dinner.
When they finished their dinner, they decided to play poker while waiting for Tezuka and Ooishi.
"Ne Fuji, don't you think they're pushing themselves too hard?" asked Eiji.
"You mean.."
Eiji put his chin on his palm and sighed. "Well, since a month ago, Ooishi always comes home late. And he didn't even have the time to eat dinner or play with me. He goes straight to bed because he's too tired. And in the morning, he always rushes to go to work because he woke up late."
Fuji nodded,"Mm.. I know. Tezuka's the same. Sometimes he can't come home because it's too late to come home. He said he didn't want to wake me up. I'm getting lonely too.."
"Nya Fuji! Please tell Tezuka to be easy on Ooishi and himself. He's the owner of the company!"
"I already told him that. But he said that it's out of his control." Fuji smiled weakly.
And the two of them chatted until 11 o'clock.
Eiji fell asleep after losing the game three times in a row.
Fuji is still awake, but his eyes felt a lot more heavier than before.
"Thank God it's Saturday tomorrow." Fuji thought.
It's already 12 o'clock when Fuji heard a car entering the carport. He opened the curtain and saw Tezuka's car on the carport and Ooishi's car on front of their house.
Tezuka got out of his car and walked towards Fuji.
"Tadaima." Tezuka kissed his forehead.
"Okaerinasai." Fuji hugged him tightly and buried his head on Tezuka's chest.
Ooishi walked behind Tezuka and greeted Fuji.
"Hi Fuji. Where is Eiji?"
Fuji released Tezuka's grip. "He fell asleep. Come in."
Then the three of them entered the house.
In the living room...
Ooishi smiled when he saw Eiji's sleeping face.
"Well, we better go home. It's getting late."
"Oh, don't you want to drink a cup of tea first?" offered Fuji.
"No, thank you, Fuji." Ooishi nudged Eiji, "Eiji, wake up."
Two sleepy eyes cracked opened. "Mm..Ooishi?"
"Yes. Let's go home, Eiji."
Eiji nodded and got up. Ooishi kept his arm around Eiji's waist to keep him stable, and they went straight home.
After sending them home, Tezuka and Fuji walked to their bedroom. Tezuka changed his clothes and put on a white shirt and long khaki pants before slipping under the blanket.
He held Fuji close to him and kissed his lips tenderly.
Suddenly, Tezuka felt something was wetting his cheeks.
"Shuusuke, why are you crying?"
Fuji wiped his tears away. "Nothing. It's okay."
"No, tell me what happened." It sounded more like a command than a question. Very Tezuka-like.
"It's just…I .. I felt really lonely.. because you always…"
"I know." Tezuka wiped his tears with his thumb. "I'm really sorry, Shuusuke. Demo, you have to listen to me."
Fuji tilted his head and looked at Tezuka.
"Ooishi and I had a commitment that we are going to finish our work as fast as possible."
"Why?" Fuji asked with a confused face.
"I'm not going to tell you the reason, for now. But I will tell you next week."
Fuji is still confused, but Tezuka just kissed his head. "Now, I know you're tired too. Let's go to sleep and we'll talk about this tomorrow."
Although Fuji didn't understand, but he's too tired. "Oyasumi, koi."
Tezuka kissed his hair. "Oyasumi, Shuu."
Well, the next days went on like usual. Tezuka's really busy with his works, and so does Ooishi. Eiji often visited Fuji, saying that he's very lonely, and they waited for their lovers to come home.
But, Fuji couldn't take it anymore. He felt like Tezuka chose his work over him. It was like Tezuka is having an affair, with his job!
So, Fuji decided to ignore him tonight, so he could learn a lesson.
Friday night…
"Tadaima." Tezuka waited for a moment, waiting for an answer.
Nothing.
He took off his coat and went to the bedroom. There, he saw Fuji, already asleep. But Tezuka knew that he was just pretending to be asleep. It's still 7.30 p.m and it's impossible for Fuji to sleep that early.
Tezuka sat on the side of the bed and caressed Fuji's brown hair.
"Shuu.. Shuusuke…"
Fuji, who realized that his trick is not useful anymore, could only answer with a groan.
"I know you're awake. I have to tell you something."
Knowing he couldn't do anything but obey Tezuka, he lazily got up and sat on the edge of the bed, beside Tezuka.
"Nani?" ask Fuji, without even bothering to look at him.
But he knew it all too well. "Are you mad at me?"
"Yes, baka."
"I don't know." He answered shortly.
Tezuka sighed. "Okay. I understand. That's why I have to talk to you."
"Oh, so are you finally going to explain to me why you love your work more than me?"
"Shuu, I didn't love my work more than you, in fact, I did this because I love you."
Fuji laughed, "What? Are you kidding me? You made me feel like this and then you said it's…"
Tezuka cut him with a kiss. Long and sweet. After they separated, Tezuka showed him two tickets from his pocket.
"What's this?" ask Fuji.
"A month ago, Ooishi and I came up with an idea to surprise you and Eiji. We wanted to bring you two abroad for vacation, because we haven't been on vacation together before since we started working."
Fuji could only watch him with opened-wide eyes.
"So, we decided to work hard so we can afford it. That's why we've been coming home late." continued Tezuka.
"Mitsu… You did that… for me?
Tezuka answered with a nod. Fuji immediately embraced him tightly.
"These aretwo night flight tickets to Thailand. The plane will depart at 9 o'clock. We'll meet Ooishi and Eiji on the airport. Pack your things quickly, okay?"
"Hai!" answered Fuji with a huge grin. And the both of them started packing.
At the airport…
Tezuka and Fuji met Ooishi and Eiji on the boarding room. Eiji immediately ran to Fuji and dragged him to sit beside him. Tezuka just shook his head. Good thing the boarding room was not crowded.
"Nya Fuji! Could you believe that! They did all of that just for us! Nya, I'm so happy!"
Fuji laughed. "Calm down, Eiji. Yeah, I didn't know that they're a true Casanova before."
Ooishi chuckled hearing that. And Tezuka, well, as usual, quiet and calm.
"All passengers for flight TA 24 destination Bangkok…."
"That's us. Let's go, guys." Ooishi said while picking up his travel bag.
Then they walked together to the boarding gate.
Onthe plane...
When they were sitting, Fuji leaned himself towards Tezuka and whispered, "Koi, arigatou for all of this."
"You haven't seen anything yet. Save your 'thank you' for tomorrow night."
Fuji giggled. "Ooh, so is this our honeymoon?"
"Consider it as that." Tezuka answered him, before he kissed Fuji sweetly..
"Aishiteru Mitsu."
"Aishiteru Shuusuke."
Then Fuji placed his head on Tezuka's shoulder and fell asleep.
a/n: Well? What do you think? Is it okay?
Oh, by the way, do you think I should continue about their vacation or not? Please review...review..
Thank youuu…
