Summary: Someone is in for a surprise…
Note: This is a (very) late 'Happy Birthday' to Tatsuha as I was on a cruise during his birthday and couldn't write anything for it. I'll be having a Christmas type gift (sort of a sequel to 'Our Song') later for the boys.
Surprises
"Can I open my eyes now?"
"No, you have to keep them closed!"
"It's a surprise!"
"Not to be known until the last moment!"
"Then you can see!"
I sighed heavily as two pairs of hands guided me through the house. Sometimes, my lovers scared me. I mean, what had to be kept so secret that I had to be blindfolded and guided through my own love house? Sure, we had just gotten together earlier this year… okay, so it was more like New Years last year after I finally turned eighteen. It was almost a year now, ten days until a year actually. Everybody had told us that we wouldn't get this far… Then again, they said the same thing for Yuki and Shuichi and they're still strong for almost three years now.
"Where are we going? I want to see again!"
"Nope, can't open those eyes!"
"You'll ruin it."
"And we've been planning a very long time."
"Just for you –and us- to enjoy!"
I sighed again, giving up. Might as well just sit back, relax, and enjoy whatever surprise they're going to give me. What choice did I have anyway? One of them alone I could take, but two? I'd never win. Not that they were stronger (they were, actually), but they knew how to get me to melt with just one touch from both of them. I'm weak like that, I suppose. There was nothing I could deny them and all of us knew that.
"Okay, just a few more steps."
"Then you can open your surprise!"
"But don't peek before then, okay?"
"We'll know if you do!"
"Stand here, love, and wait until we say its okay to open your eyes."
Their hands left my arms and I had to stop myself from reaching out to pull them back in. This was their surprise and I wouldn't ruin it, no matter how much I might hate it in the end. I never did like surprises, to be honest, but these two did keep me on my toes with them. Most of them (fine, all of them) I loved, but that was probably because it usually ended somewhere with food and bed at the same time.
"Okay, on the count of three open your eyes!"
"One…"
"Two…"
"Two and a half…
"Two and-"
"Three!" I said for them, opening my eyes to find out what they decided to surprise me with next.
I can honestly say that I didn't know whether to laugh, cry, or to melt into a puddle of goo at the moment. There in front of me, were my two lovers standing naked with boxes in their arms. Around their hair and ahem other body parts streamed red ribbon, curling around each other so both of them were attached. How they managed to do this quietly, I'll never know.
"Happy birthday," they both said at once, causing the grin on my face to grow wider. As one, they stepped forward toward me and I couldn't take my eyes off of them. It was like I died and gone to heaven, but heaven was in a very beautiful candle lit bedroom (I didn't even try to figure out how that escaped my mind when I opened my eyes; you would too if you saw what I had seen first).
"Is this for me?" I asked, running my fingers over the boxes and their hands.
"Yes, Tatsuha, this is for you." Suguru, the youngest before me, stepped forward and pulled me into a lingering kiss. "Happy nineteenth birthday, love."
"We thought we'd give you something that you already had … as well as some more presents because birthdays aren't birthdays without presents." Ryuichi, our oldest lover, grinned playfully at me before pulling me into his own kiss. "So, open then, baby."
I grinned, taking the boxes from their arms and putting them off to the side. I moved closer to my lovers and started playfully tugging at the ribbons surrounding their bodies. "I think I'll open the biggest one first."
