What a day.
It was so strange to describe, this day felt like it went too slowly yet incredibly fast depending on Yasuo's presence or absence. Yi enjoyed it as much as he could, each second was worth the wait. Because wait he did, all class time and even the hour after he had finished, waiting for the latter. At the occasion he had said goodbye to Yone while he sat quietly at the library until his boyfriend was free too.
It was fine, as long as he presented that as revision time to his parents. And he did study a little, when he managed to focus a little between two soft sighs.
Oh, so deep in it already. Hands over his face, it wouldn't stop that blush no matter how hard he tried. It was true and even now, lying in bed for sleep, he couldn't deny the strenght of feelings. It was powerful, beating hard in his chest.
So many reasons to wish he had more time, more space, more privacy to show his love to Yasuo. In moments like this one, he wanted so much to have him in his arms. To sleep or to be kept awake by insomnia, whatever as long as they were together.
We never slept together. That mere thought darkened the blush. Something as chaste as sharing a bed the time of a nap or a night, it was priceless. No, he wasn't thinking about another meaning, carnal needs. Not yet.
To go for a nap with Yasuo in his arms seemed like a sweet dream. Maybe once he was free, after graduation. And of course if he found a good excuse to stay with him without being too suspicious. His parents had no need to know about it or their relationship.
Sleep took its time to come. Quiet time indeed because Yasuo was careful not to bother him too late. When Yi had to sleep, he stopped texting, just in case. Even to actually stop was a long task, as they wished each other goodnight many times and it ended in a soft battle of heart emojis.
Tomorrow…
They would meet next day. As planned and asked during lunch, Yi would come to Yasuo's place for the afternoon. Yone had smartly suggested to say Yi was going to study with his fellow classmate, so he had a reason to be there. He would study, yes, but with Yasuo.
Good plan indeed. Yi couldn't wait for it, so thrilled to be with the latter for such free time. So far he had already seen their flat on some occasions to work on projects of presentations with Yone. Now it was going to be for a whole new reason.
This was why he wished to fall asleep quickly, he wanted to be next day already. Please…
After some time moving in bed until he found a good position to sleep, it seemed to work. At least he could hope for this to go fast.
It was time.
In the end, it didn't take a lot of convincing to get the parent's authorization. Merely a few words to his mother and she accepted. Technically an adult now, Yi had some freedom though he prefered to give a reason to go. Anyway, they knew where he would be.
[I'm leaving. Can't wait to see you.]
Short text sent to Yasuo, to keep him in touch. No doubt he was going to reply within the minute. This was one of the few things that never changed, how fast the latter was to chat with him.
[ok ok !]
[ill find u on the way!]
Not really necessary since Yi already knew the way from his house to Yasuo's flat but each second available would be taken.
Heart beating with joy, he went on his way after calling good afternoon from the door. Ready, some school books in his bag and the soft feeling before any reunion with his boyfriend. Oh he wondered if one day he would stop feeling like this, so happy. Hopefully no.
As announced and expected, after five good minutes of walk he saw a hurried Yasuo far away up the street, running at him. When at last he reached Yi, he took a pause to recover shortly then repeated what he already did several time, burrying his face in his collar. There, Yasuo didn't move and held him tightly. He's so cute… It seemed clear that he enjoyed that particularly.
« I'm glad to see you too. Take your time, I suppose you ran all the way from the flat. »
« Yeah I did. No regrets. » Grinning like an idiot and so endearing.
Without waiting more they resumed the walk, Yasuo holding his arm quietly. Maybe odd to hear him – or rather not to hear him as much – but Yi wasn't worried. When he looked at him, the latter seemed just overjoyed, restless in the good meaning. Each time he gave a quick peck to his cheek before going faster till home, a smile never disappearing.
Recognizing the place, Yi wasn't surprised as they entered the building and walked the stairs. Never contact was lost, this time switching to hand holding. It was sweet to see the way Yasuo led him up there, like a kid.
The second they passed the door, Yasuo called loudly : « Mom ! He's here ! »
After taking off his shoes, he went looking in the flat while Yi stayed there, quick to follow in silence. It was quite comforting to come at Yasuo's home, the mood was always good. Every wall, every shelf was decorated and full of diverse items, more or less useful. That dvd shelf in the living room always amazed him. Catching himself idling, he went after Yasuo.
The latter was in the kitchen, where indeed was also the mother of this damned family, taking her coffee. Not a surprise, they were used to have lunch and dinner a bit later than most people would. Habits, surely. Another clue, Yone was there, busy drying the dishes and putting it back.
« Hi. » Small gesture to them, still unsure about how to act around them. Before his presence here was on Yone's request and now he was here for Yasuo, just a whole new reason.
« Hello ! » She waved back cheerfully, smiling in a way that without a doubt Yasuo inherited. « Sorry, we're finishing lunch. Do you want a coffee or anything ? »
« For now I'm good. Thank you. »
For all that time Yasuo had been pretty silent and now he coughed to get the attention before speaking : « Mom, I got something to tell you. »
« As long as it's not detention, it's fine. What is it ? » It sounded a bit like a joke but knowing Yasuo, he indeed got detention a few times since he arrived in highschool.
Suddenly Yasuo went to hold Yi tight, while still adressing his mother. « He's my boyfriend, now. Just telling you before Yon does. That's it, we're gone. »
So rushed, said in one breath then Yasuo actually left the kitchen in a hurry. All this had been quite fast, Yi didn't register everything. Visibly, neither the other two in the kitchen did. Yone had plainly stopped what he was doing, wide gaze on the direction Yasuo took.
« What, you really think I was going to tell her before you ? I'm wounded. I know when to stay in my lane ! » Seemingly outraged but all for the show, loud so Yasuo could hear wherever he fled.
Worried, Yi looked at their mother. She seemed alright, nothing to say except innocent surprise. Cup of coffee still in hand, obviously she forgot about it for a time.
« Alright, that's some good news. I'm glad for you two. And no need to hide, Yasuo, I know you're still here in the corridor. »
Indeed a muffled curse came from the corridor then Yasuo arrived shortly, grabbing Yi's wrist to lead him elsewhere. Even as he kept his face down the blush stayed obvious. Oh.
« How shy. I'm not mad or anything, no idea what you expected. » She sounded casual saying this, surely it was her thoughts too. Great calm compared to Yasuo's obvious restlessness.
« Yeah, yeah. See ya. » Not so eloquent indeed.
Yi let him be taken, following the latter in the flat until his bedroom. A light laugh came from the kitchen after they left, nothing bad it would seem.
Door closed behind him, he was pressed to it before he could even look around. Lips found his, just as hands settled over him. Tension left in a second. Mmmh—
Sweet relief to be free to love again. No way to be seen, no interruptions. Just them. So nice to feel Yasuo's eagerness, pushing gently into the kiss. Yi tried to put his bag down, to fully hug back. It landed with a quiet thud. Then he could embrace Yasuo with as much strenght as he liked, conveying his enjoyment.
When they parted, that staining red still colored the latter's cheeks and ears. Beautiful details. Probably it hadn't been easy to tell their mother but he had to.
Craddling Yasuo's cheek, he felt so happy. Exactly where he wanted to be.
