A day without an end. This was the way Yasuo felt this sunday, going achingly slow. He knew perfectly well why.
Yi…
Oh he loved him so much but they couldn't meet that day. After all, latest day was already a good thing to take, given Yi's busy month until graduation and his parents' approach. Neither of them wanted to risk it so soon, so they would patiently wait for monday, sighing for each other's absence. It was reasonable.
The only problem was not being together, of course. Hell, they never had to wait a lot to see each other, it was barely a day. Yet Yasuo was a bit grumpy and nothing could change that.
Yone had tried to cheer him up a little, when he wasn't busy studying because yes his brother had exams soon too. This was still appreciated, Yasuo could use a distraction. They played video games for some time before he was called to take care of laundry and Yone returned to his books.
The rest of the time, he was texting Yi and thinking about him. Really he was in deep for him and it was the sweetest feeling to have. The latter was staying home, just like him and retold how he spent most of his time in his bedroom or the living room, to show he was still busy with his exams. Not that his parents would doubt him, he was a very good student but he explained that he wouldn't feel so guilty for texting Yasuo.
After more gentle words and first petnames, Yi returned to his bedroom and relished a bit of privacy there.
Not to get too bored and because he yearned for his boyfriend, Yasuo snapped a quick picture and sent him, asking what he was doing. It was so nice to receive a picture in return, Yi sitting up in his bed with a few books. This was the first time Yasuo saw what his bedroom looked like and it felt like a real privilege. Plus, the latter was really cute no matter what he did, even just sitting there.
More time went, both a real mess of affection and feelings. This was getting out of hand far too quickly. Yi would tell him he missed him then he would tell he missed him more then it was time for another round of heart emojis and lovely blush.
At some point he decided to let him some peace, since he still had a life. Yasuo seized the occasion to nap. This would be the good time for anyone he knew to chill and enjoy silence.
Even with that nap time went so slowly this day. Nothing too marking happened except his conversations with Yi, when he tried not to do his homeworks.
Not his best sunday ever but it was still the first since he got with Yi and this made it priceless. Now he had a reason to 'bother' him a bit more.
The evening went on a similar way. Dinner, movie then he fucked off to bed, to resume their conversations. Yasuo had still some manners, he wouldn't text him during dinner or his mother would give a proper warning.
Once he got back to his bedroom, it was this specific time where tenderness took over. Neither could explain it but it was nice, holding each other dearly despite distance. Yi was used to go to sleep at a rather correct hour, like anyone taking care to have minimum amount of sleep. However Yasuo more of the suicidal type, going to sleep when he felt for it. They both started at the same hour next day, this was still a relief. Only, one of them was going to be overly tired and the other more than fine.
This time they chatted a bit longer, about classes of the week or the despicable hour of the morning. Serious about his sleep, Yi wished him goodnight and they indeed had five more minutes being overhwelmed with nice words. It came to an end but it didn't made Yasuo too sad. They would meet next day, first hour.
It left him awake, at a time not so late but which could be very useful if he got to bed too. Yi wasn't available so he had one reason elss to be awake.
So he moved and went to bed, setting the alarm for next morning and snuggling in the blanket.
This was the moment his thoughts wandered. I miss him. A kiss would be more than welcome right now but they were far, no way to have it. His heart ached for Yi, clinging to any memories from saturday to live again.
After successfully ignoring the topic all day, Yasuo couldn't help but thinking about less innocent things. The morning didn't help in the slightest, making more obvious his own needs. Soon, I hope.
Reason was fast to catch him, far too aware of where this path would lead him. He already saw how he woke up this morning, no need for a reminder.
Stop that.
Instead he tried to think of more serious topics. Like what they were going to do after, this kind of stuff. Soon enough Yasuo realized he knew nothing of that. For now they were together but what would happen next ?
He asked to study elsewhere. He remembered that quite well since he had been around Yi for quite some time. Of course he would hear him tell his projects for next years. At the moment it had hurt Yasuo a lot and it was part of the reasons he wished to confess before it was too late. But it didn't solve the matter. Yi was surely going to leave next September.
Many things bubbled up to the surface and nothing really positive. For now they were together but was that meant to last ? Now it dawned on Yasuo that he never asked what he wanted from this. Boyfriends, yes but for how long ?
It felt like his heart dropped, dead. No… ?
It was stupid to make assumptions like this but all this time he thought they were be together as in forever – or at least as long as they wanted. Not just a small story.
New things intruded in his mind, possible explanations. Maybe all that Yi wanted was a short relationship, until he finished his year and left. Maybe he wanted to have this until he would leave for this other city. Everything hurt, suddenly. Because Yasuo didn't know. There was no way to know right now unless he asked. Good thing to suppose everything was the way he wanted it.
Like these summer love stories, never meant to last beyond August. No, I don't want that. All this time he wished to stay by Yi's side, to be his boyfriend and keep seeing him. Maybe he was wrong on all the line, blind.
Yasuo tried to calm himself on this. It could be just a bit of anxiety, paranoia after barely a few days of relationship. But Yi would have said so if he wanted him as boyfriend on the long term, no ? Soon he would lose his mind to this, it sounded worse than painful.
Not to want the same thing. He thought that it was mutually seeked. Yet now he realized he might be wrong.
We love each other… In the same way ? For how long ? Was it supposed to end after his graduation, after vacations ? Too many questions, no answers.
Really, Yasuo wanted to believe he was just being stupid at questionning this but it hurt. Now the possibility existed. What if next day he checked and asked Yi, only to hear he didn't want this to last ? What if he had been wrong ?
He wasn't exactly the kind to bother to such point but this was his love at stake. Far too personal and secret. Not a simple question of detention for being careless or anything, this was about his feelings.
Face in the blanket, he wished he could forget this topic. It wasn't fair and probably it wasn't true. They would know next day. So went this loop of reassurance then fall, too scared.
At last he fell asleep but it left him far too long alone with his thoughts to debate a potential heartbreak.
