Chapter 18

"Dear all mighty God: Please replenish my poor soul. I was killed, tortured, ripped apart and left for the dead by a sinful man. He should be arrested for his crimes! He should be banished from heaven and casted to hell for his sins too!... Oh and please make sure he attends my funeral. Amen." Kaoru bowed, keeping his hands together as he finished praying.

"Come on Kaoru. Your break's over." Izumi sighed at the kneeling boy. The auburn haired turned around and glared. "You're going to seriously kill me with this pace." he warned. Izumi just rolled his eyes. "I did say I wasn't going to go easy on you."

Kaoru frowned and stood up, brushing himself off. "I know, but I didn't think you were actually serious." he mumbled. I thought he was just saying something kinky in the heat of the moment. Kaoru thought, blushing slightly.

"Well you're the one who wants to learn judo. So you decide: Do you want to continue? Or do you give up?" Izumi taunted. The auburn haired glared at him and yelled back, "No! I want- I'm going to continue!" Izumi smirked and went into his starting stance.

"Then what are you waiting for Kaoru? Come on, attack me!" Izumi urged. Kaoru took a deep breath and made a stance as well. He wasn't going to give up. He decided this on his own. I mean it's my first day so I'll eventually get used to it. Right?


Izumi groaned as he slowly walked up the stairs. The heavy weight on his back affected his speed. I wonder, how are camels able to carry their humps plus the extra loads? Izumi thought. Because what's what he felt like. Like a camel. "Geez, you're heavy." he growled.

"Shut up." Kaoru muttered. He tightened his grip and laid his head on the raven haired's. "This is your punishment for nearly killing me."

Izumi rolled his eyes. "Your stamina is a joke." he sighed out. They made it to Izumi's room and he kicked open the door, also closing it with his foot. "Do you want to shower first?" he questioned.

A shower sounds nice but... "I want a nice bubble bath actually." he said. The raven haired walked into the bathroom. "Okay, but you want to go first I mean." Izumi asked. Kaoru pouted at that. "Aww, you're not going to go with me?" he whined.

He backed up into the counter so that he could leave Kaoru sitting there. He walked over to the tub, plugged in the drain, turned on the faucet, and squirted in a decent amount of soap. "No I'll go after." Izumi replied plainly. "Turn it off when it's done." he continued and went to leave the bathroom. Kaoru whined and grabbed the boy's arm when he passed the counter he was on. "Take a bath with me." he pouted.

Izumi sighed and shook his head. Kaoru grumbled and pull him closer, making Izumi stand between his knees. "Please, take one with me." he whispered, giving Izumi a pleading look. He stayed quiet and just observed the auburn haired.

When Izumi didn't answer Kaoru grabbed his face and wrapped his legs around the boy's waist. "Please Izumi." Kaoru went on. Still the raven haired kept his face straight and unchanging. Even when Kaoru hovered his lips over Izumi's. "Please." he said in a small voice before closing the gap and kissing him.

Although Izumi responded to the kiss, he didn't make a move to hold on or even touch Kaoru. He just moved his lips as a automatic response, not really putting any emotion in it.

Kaoru noticed and kissed the boy as passionately as he could, bringing his head and body closer. Still Izumi kissed him dryly. So Kaoru decided to take it up a notch and slipped his hands through the slight opening on the judogi. He gripped the undershirt and tried to pull it up. That's when Izumi pulled away.

"Kaoru." he said. Warning the auburn haired that he was going too far. Kaoru gave him a disappointed, down look. Izumi payed no mind to it and made Kaoru let him go, going over to the tub again as he did. He turned off the faucet now that it filled up to a decent amount. He walked past Kaoru again and went to leave the bathroom. "Izumi?" Kaoru called out.

Izumi turned around and looked at him. "I can't... get down from here. My legs hurt." he told him, using it more as an excuse. Izumi's blank look soften and he smiled slightly. "Right, sorry."

Izumi walked over to him and wrapped his arms around the boy's waist and raised him up, Kaoru had his arms around his shoulders. Once Kaoru was completely off the counter Izumi placed him on the floor.

The raven haired didn't let go and kept his arms around his waist, Kaoru also didn't let go. They stared at each other silently. Blue clashed with amber. As if they were telepathically communicating with each other without having to say a word. Then they both pulled in and kissed again. Unlike the first time, Izumi actually responded with feeling. The auburn haired gave an appreciative moan, moving his body flush against Izumi's.

He groaned when Kaoru nipped his lip and stepped forward, moving Kaoru back to hit the counter with his hip. Izumi pulled his head away and untied the knot of the judogi he lent Kaoru, pushing the rope top off his shoulders and letting it fall onto the floor. He then hesitantly took his off. He was still unsure of the whole thing but they were just going to bathe anyways.

Kaoru smiled and pecked Izumi to reassure him. The boy backed up and took off his undershirt next. He fidgeted with the hem of the pants before sighing and pulling it down.

Meanwhile, Kaoru took off his pants and then his boxers without any delay. He looked over at Izumi expectantly and smiled big seeing the boy naked as well while glancing bashfully to the side. Kaoru walked over to him and grabbed his hands, giggling when Izumi jumped slightly. He took them over to the enormous tub and stepped inside, still pulling Izumi so the boy had no choice but to step in too. Izumi looked around unsure of everything and Kaoru made him sit down. He then sat on top and kissed Izumi again to distract him from the situation.

It worked for Izumi and he slowly eased up, getting more comfortable and enjoying the heat of the water and the heat of Kaoru's body. He grabbed the boy's hips and pulled him closer. The auburn haired broke the kiss and gasped as their bare crotches touched. Izumi bit his lip; he hadn't meant to do something as erotic as that. He merely wanted Kaoru's body closer. But it felt good, so he moved his hips this time.

Kaoru moaned lowly and moved his as well. Both boys moved rhythmically with each other, rubbing their arousing members together. Kaoru whimpered when Izumi groped his ass and squeezed both his cheeks, making his hips thrust harder.

The water in the tub moved around in small waves with the rocking of their hips. This was certainly not what they had in mind when it was decided they would both bathe together. But one small erotic move and neither Izumi nor Kaoru were able to fend off their growing sexual needs.

The auburn haired harshly gripped and pulled on Izumi's hair as they kissed passionately. Izumi sneaked his hand between their crotches and lightly grabbed Kaoru's cock.

Kaoru whined and laid his head down on the crook of Izumi's neck. They hadn't done anything like this since that one time Izumi blowed him. And, if I recall correctly, Izumi never got off that night. Kaoru smirked, his face hidden on the boy's neck. He put his hand in the water and slowly edged it towards Izumi's growing erection while he was busy with his. Kaoru grabbed it and gave it a firm pull.

Izumi moaned in surprise from the jolt of pleasure he felt. He dropped his head on Kaoru's shoulder when he moved his hand again confidently, the pleasant feeling easing the ache in his groin. "Kaoru." he groaned, realizing now just how much he's been wanting this.

That groan shot straight to his groin, making his erection even harder and pulse painfully. Izumi must have felt it from how he continued moving his hand, having stopped before.

The bathroom was filled with the boys' moans, groans, and whimpers. They breathed heavily and jerked each other off in the tub. They had completely forgotten about their bath and only concentrated on giving sweet pleasure. They both moved their hands at fast pace and didn't waste time in making each other reach their peaks.

Izumi grunted and muffled his voice by biting Kaoru on his shoulder, adding another bruise next to yesterday's. Kaoru cried out, both in pleasure and pain, and jerked his hips.

They panted heavily together as they slowly rocked their hips, getting off their high. By then their cum had mixed in with the water. Kaoru looked down and groaned. "Gotta change the water now." he mumbled. Izumi didn't say anything he just grabbed Kaoru's chin and kissed him.

The auburn haired moaned in content and gently laced his fingers through Izumi's hair. They traveled down, passing his neck and over his shoulders. They skimmed down his chest and Izumi pulled away slightly. Izumi took a deep breath and kissed Kaoru again, vaguely relaxing as the hands caressed his torso.

Kaoru smiled and nuzzled his face on Izumi's neck before pulling away to unplug the drain. As the water was drained away Kaoru glanced down and smirked. With the water out of the way he gazed at Izumi's limp member. "I told you, we're the same size." he teased.

Izumi tilted his head and looked down as well. Then he growled. "You can't exactly tell when we're not aroused." The auburn haired pouted, "Then let's get aroused again." Izumi blushed at that. "Kaoru, we just- ngh." Kaoru grabbed Izumi's member and slowly moved his hand on the sensitive organ.

At the same time, with his other hand Kaoru grabbed his own and pumped it too. The raven haired didn't complain and let Kaoru arouse him again. Once they were erect Kaoru scooted closer and aligned their cocks together. Making sure their balls were pressed against each other. Kaoru smirked and compared them. "See we have the same girth and leng- well, hm. Okay, so you're a little longer." he pouted.

"I told you we weren't the same." Izumi sighed. Kaoru grumbled and moved his hand, slowly pumping both their cocks. Izumi growled and caught his hand. "We're bathing now." he said and turned the faucet on, making the tub refill with water again. Kaoru whined, "When we're still like this?" Izumi rolled his eyes and pushed the auburn haired off of him, making him sit down on the opposite side. "It'll go away." he said plainly.

Kaoru pouted but otherwise stayed put. And true to Izumi's words, their erections went away without a problem. Kaoru sighed and grabbed a handful of the foam that had built up from the soap. He looked up at the raven haired and saw him closing his eyes. Completely vulnerable. He throw the foam at Izumi and grinned in victory when it hit the boy square in the face.

It was a light touch and Izumi nearly missed it, but then it felt cold and started going down his face. Izumi growled and ran his hand over his face. He glared at Kaoru as the boy just stared at him innocently. So Izumi moved his hand across the surface of the water, splashing Kaoru with it. Foam and water soaked the auburn haired's upper body.

He stilled before smirking and splashing Izumi right back, with a lot more force that caused the water to hit the floor outside the tub. Izumi stared at it and scowled. "Kaoru my floor!" he growled and pounced on Kaoru.

The boys wrestled in the tub and their strident movements caused even more of the soapy water to fall on the floor. "Izumi, you know," Kaoru started when Izumi had him pinned to the bottom of the tub. "There's a lot less water in here." he stated as he stared at the remaining water that could barely cover the whole bottom of the tub.

Izumi stared at it too and groaned. "I don't even want to look outside." he said and rested his head on Kaoru's shoulder. He didn't want to see the horror of a puddle he would have to clean up later.

"Me neither but," Kaoru paused and shivered, "I'm kind of cold." The raven haired sighed and picked himself up. Kaoru got up as well and looked at the floor. The whole bathroom was covered in a thin layer of soapy water. Izumi whined about how long it was going to take to clean up. Kaoru frowned, "Don't you have a drain?" Izumi sighed and nodded, "Yes, but the water has soap. The floor is going to be all sticky if we don't clean it." Kaoru scoffed at that. "We?" he questioned.

Izumi turned towards him and glared. "Yes we. You're the one who started this." he confirmed. The auburn haired pouted and stayed silent. Izumi sighed again and carefully stepped out of the tub. He slowly walked over to a switch and flipped it on. The drain started and all the water flowed towards it. When it was done Izumi flipped it again and the draining sound stopped.

Kaoru stayed where he was and watched as the raven haired went over to the small closet in the bathroom and got out two towels. The whole time Kaoru was just admiring that ass in his line of sight. Then Izumi turned around and walked over to Kaoru, handing him a towel. Kaoru grabbed it and dried himself off.

Izumi was drying off his hair as Kaoru stepped out. But then the auburn haired's foot slid a little because of the still wet floor. Out of instinct Izumi went to steady him but tripped himself from the sudden movement, and Kaoru fell on top of him. Izumi groaned a little, thankful he managed to catch himself with his hands.

Kaoru winced when Izumi's elbow hit his chest. He looked down at the bare back of the raven haired who was hoisting himself up to his knees. "Are you okay?" he asked leaning a little on the boy.

Izumi was about to reply but then he felt Kaoru's member poke his backside and he froze. He looked at how Kaoru's hands were near his and realized the boy was top of him. With Kaoru's chest pressed against his back he couldn't move. He couldn't- he was trapped. This position it reminded him of- No! Stop thinking about that! This is Kaoru! He wouldn't- But this position, the feeling of being imprisoned under someone. Under… him. Izumi gritted his teeth and grabbed his bare chest, his nails scratching his skin.

He saw how Izumi had started to scratch his chest and panicked. Did I say something wrong!? Was it something I said!? Kaoru got off the boy and sat in front of him instead. He grabbed his face and tilted it up. "Izumi?" he asked in concern.

At the sound of his name Izumi focused on his surroundings and saw Kaoru's worried face in front of him. His hands stopped scratching and dropped down. "S-sorry I just got a little surprised." he lied.

Kaoru sighed and let him go. "Why do you always do that?" he asked. Izumi tilted his head so he added, "Why do you always scratch yourself." The raven haired frowned and ruffled his wet hair.

"I don't know. I guess, to calm down?" he replied, unsure of his response. Who knows why he does it. He just always does. Unconsciously for some reason.

"Well don't do that. You're hurting yourself." Kaoru scolded eyeing the red trail marks on the boy's light skin. The raven haired nodded and glanced away. "We should clean this up before we fall again." Kaoru sighed and stood up, helping Izumi up too as he did. "But we're all covered in soap now." Izumi mumbled and experimentally clenched his hands. Kaoru hummed and walked over to the shower. He opened the glass door and took out the shower head. He pointed it towards the raven haired and turned the water on, making sure the water would come out of the faucet instead.

Izumi frowned, "What are you doing?" Kaoru moved the knobs around to change the temperature. Izumi couldn't understand what he was even doing.

He pulled the little lever and the water automatically came out from the shower head. He heard Izumi give a startled yelp as the first bit of cold water hit him, it only turned warm afterwards. "Kaoru! You're wetting everything!" Izumi shouted. Kaoru turned around and looked at him blankly. "The floor is already wet. And this makes it easier to clean up."

Izumi glared and picked up the towels that were on the floor. He scowled when he saw they had soap and threw it in the laundry basket.

Kaoru was just rinsing himself off and then he rinsed the floor. Izumi turned on the drain and the extra water went it. Before long the boy's had finished cleaning everything and they dried themselves off with new towels. Izumi went over to his wardrobe and opened it.

"Izumi can I borrow your clothes?" Kaoru asked. Izumi looked at him and tilted his head. "You didn't bring extra?" Kaoru shook his head with sigh. "I didn't think I was going to take a bath or shower." The raven haired nodded and moved slightly to the side. "Well pick something out. We're almost the same size."

"Heh. Same size, huh?" Kaoru teased. Izumi glared at him. "Almost same size." he emphasized. "I'm taller than you."

Kaoru rolled his eyes in annoyance. "A few inches doesn't mean anything." Izumi frowned and turned back to the wardrobe. "I'm still taller." he mumbled. Kaoru walked over to the wardrobe as well and searched around for clothes. He picked up some boxers and put them on. Then he looked through the plain shirts and hoodies hanging. He sucked his teeth and looked to the side to see Izumi also putting on some plain gray shirt. "Your fashion sense stinks." he said, curling up his lip in distaste.

Izumi glared at him again and scowled, "Well at least I don't dress preppy." The auburn haired glared at him. "I don't dress preppy. I dress fashionably." he snapped. Izumi sighed and ruffled his damp hair. "You're sounding like a girl."

"Yeah, but I'm not the one with a girly name." Kaoru mumbled. The raven haired glared at him menacingly. "What did you say?" he growled. Kaoru narrowed his eyes, "I said: I'm not the one with a girly name." Then he mumbled, "Gender neutral."

"Your name's also gender neutral!" Izumi countered. The auburn haired scoffed, "Yeah, but mine doesn't sound like a girl's." Izumi glowered at him then sighed and backed down. "Are you going to continue criticizing my name and fashion sense or are you going to pick something out? If not then go home." he threatened.

He pouted at that and grumbled, "I'll pick something out." He grabbed a random shirt and put it on. Smiling when it fit him. Then he walked away from the wardrobe in content. Secretly he was actually excited about wearing Izumi's clothes. There was something about knowing they were Izumi's that made the clothes all the more special, despite it not being his style.

"You're not going to wear jeans or something?" Izumi questioned. Kaoru froze and laughed sheepishly. He turned around, "I'm kind of tired, aren't you?" Izumi frowned and took in how Kaoru was wearing a shirt. "Then why the shirt? You never wear one to sleep." The auburn haired fidgeted a little, "I got cold."

In truth he just wanted to wear more of Izumi's clothes than just his boxers. Izumi shrugged at his answer and closed the wardrobe. Kaoru sighed in relief when the boy didn't question it further.

Izumi walked over to window while Kaoru went over to the bed. He closed the curtains and went over to the bed after. As soon as he sat down Kaoru pulled him in and kissed him. Izumi moaned in protest and Kaoru snickered as he pulled away. "I want to cuddle." he giggled, hugging Izumi.

The boy sighed out an 'okay' and Kaoru pushed him to back up against the headboard. Kaoru shifted himself to sit in between Izumi's legs, his back flushed against his chest.

Izumi wrapped his arms around the auburn haired and nuzzled the back of his neck. Kaoru sighed in content and tilted his head back to kiss Izumi's cheek. He blushed faintly at the affectionate action and kissed the bite mark on Kaoru's shoulder, causing the boy to shudder.

The boys stayed in this caring hold. Both not saying anything and just enjoying the relaxing moment. Then Kaoru remembered something. "Izumi?" he called out softly. "Hm?" Izumi hummed back as a response. Kaoru nervously fidgeted with his hands a little. "Have you... Have you thought about it?" he asked hesitantly. He knew he agreed to let Izumi think about it, but he desperately wanted this relationship of theirs to be official. He wanted to be able to call the boy his boyfriend. Or go on dates him. Hell, he even wanted to announce to every living being in sight the sexy raven haired was his. Ugh, not to mention those girls that eyed him like a piece of meat in school.

"About what?" Izumi asked. "About... us." Kaoru softly said. Izumi froze, and stayed silent. "I know you said you would think about it but... it's been a while Izumi, and you haven't said anything yet." Kaoru added in a voice that told Izumi how much this really affected him. "Give me a week." he replied. When Kaoru didn't say anything Izumi grabbed the boy's face and made him look back at him. "Just give me a week and I'll answer you. That's all I need." he requested. Kaoru stared at him silently so he continued. "I want to date you. I really do. If I didn't I wouldn't be doing this things with you. But... I'm sorry I'm making you wait this long... I'm just not all figured out yet."

Kaoru lowered his eyes and leaned forward. "A week?" he whispered. Izumi nodded, "Just a week." Kaoru nodded too as an approval. "Okay." he agreed and kissed the boy sweetly and slowly. Dragging out each kiss as he went back for more.

Each kiss was filled with such sweetness, with such caring emotions that assured both boys this wouldn't affect them one bit. That they didn't have to worry about that one week. That they could continue on like always and stay in each other's arms. That one week would not be an obstacle for them. That one week is merely just like any other week. Each kiss assured them of that.


A/N:

Okay so I won't be able to update next week. I'll be out of state so I won't have time to. But I will write while I'm away so I'll have the next chapter done and MAYBE even have two done. Notice that 'maybe'.

I'll be updating after the 14th and I'll MAYBE give you guys a double update to make up for next week. Again notice the 'maybe' so don't get your hopes destroyed if it doesn't happen.

So keep a look out for an update in two weeks!

And this is just me commenting:

Me: Bleh, this story is so long! END ALREADY DAMMIT! JUST DATE AND FUCK! WHY IS IT SO COMPLICATED!

Ugh, word of advice:

If you're writing your first story DO NOT make it long and complicated unless you have experience with writing. If you really want to then go for it but make sure you have a plot sorted out. You'll die of Writer's Block if you don't.

I made that mistake a few years ago and ended up having no motivation to continue it. And if you want to or are already writing a story don't put it on hiatus because of that disease(only do if it's something personal) if you do then you're never going to get that motivation back to continue it. Trust me, you get extremely lazy when you have that disease and you don't try to overcome it. You're not gonna want to write the story if it's on hiatus.

Anyways, just me blabbering here sooo...
