Back Together

Rei gave most of the souvenirs to his coworkers and family. And he fell back easily into his usual routine. But within the next week Nagisa called him.

Rei was eating on a bench outside with a work buddy when his phone went off. Even his friend was surprised to hear the unfamiliar ringtone, a pop song Nagisa probably set without Rei's knowledge. His friend stared in amusement as Rei almost dropped his phone to answer it.

"Nagisa-kun, it is extremely rude to change my ringtone like that."

"At least you'll always know it's me," He giggled.

Rei let out an exasperated sigh, "I'm about to go back to work soon can you ca-"

"I was going to ask if you can take any more days off!"

Rei took a moment to process what Nagisa just said. "I spent all my holiday to go see the competition." Rei couldn't believe he was considering this, "But I have a day or two of sick days I can take."

Nagisa let out a cheer. "I'll be there in two weeks," He said before hanging up.

Putting his phone away he packed up his half eaten lunch and went back to work. His work friends asked if he really had met someone in Europe. To which Rei laughed and blushed. Sputtering out something along the lines of not finding someone so much as the world working in weird ways. Following that up with the logistics surrounded by "fate" and other statistics.

Nagisa sent a long detailed email about his plans to go back home after exploring Tokyo with Rei. And that's how Rei found himself waiting for Nagisa outside of his apartment complex.

He felt nervous. His stomach bubbled with anticipation. Or maybe that was heartburn.

After talking through directions over the phone, Nagisa finally drove up. Rei helped him gather his suitcases and walked him to his room. Nagisa gushed over Rei's home. And Rei stood next to him feeling his heart race.

Rei couldn't help himself as he watched Nagisa. They had fallen back way too easily for his comfort. And Nagisa's spontaneity was causing Rei to make rash decisions. First they stayed in a hotel in Europe. And to reopen that old can of emotions they ended up being intimate more than once during that time. And since that time Rei has been thinking of Nagisa and sending him texts throughout the day as if they were in high school. And now Nagisa was in his home. Walking the halls of his overpriced room, suitcase in tow.

"How much time did you get off?" Nagisa's question jumped Rei out of his thoughts.

"Just today," Rei heard the disappointment in his voice, "But I'm off on the weekends."

Nagisa hummed. He traced the wood of the doorway. His smiled widened as he realized it was the bedroom. He set his suitcase to the side and walked in.

Rei watched him stretch. His back curved at just the right angle, his arms stretched high above his head. Nagisa had lost some muscle in the past few years. His stomach was starting to bulge out. The added chubbiness made Rei smile. Nagisa was still cute. He was still beautiful. His blond hair was pushed back, a pink hairclip holding it in place. Rei had to remind himself to breathe with Nagisa so captivating in front of him.

Rei had fallen out of love with Nagisa years ago. But was it possible to fall back? Romance was never Rei's strong suit. He wasn't quite sure how this all worked. Did he have feelings for Nagisa? That was obvious.

Nagisa dropped his bright smile. He sat down on the bed. "We haven't really talked about that," Nagisa looked up at Rei with wide eyes.

And Rei knew just what that 'that' was. Rei sat down next to him, "We haven't."

Nagisa stood up and turned to face Rei, "I think destiny brought us together."

"You just wanted a reason to say that, didn't you?" Rei asked already knowing the answer.

Nagisa giggled, childishly, and nodded. "Seriously, Rei-chan. I didn't know how much I missed you."

Rei pulled Nagisa onto his lap. He caressed his face in his hands. Nagisa wrapped his arms around Rei.

"I'm so sorry for everything that happened back then," Rei watched the tears form in Nagisa's eyes.

Nagisa took Rei's glasses off and set them on the bed stand. "You apologized a lot back then. It wouldn't have started if I hadn't been so insensitive to your feelings."

Rei felt guilt build up in his gut, "I lost your trust in me when I cheated. That was horrible. I am so sorry."

"I think we were already broken up then."

Rei gave Nagisa a sad smile. Nagisa pulled him into a kiss. It was a soft quick.

"I like you," Rei could feel the shakiness in his voice as he spoke.

Nagisa stood back up and looked at Rei. And Rei felt as if that was the wrong thing to say in the moment. But Nagisa smiled, and it made Rei's stomach flutter.

"Do you want to try again?" Nagisa whispered.

It was so different from years ago. Bright Nagisa taking no time to wrap his arms around Rei and ask him out on a date. It wasn't like back in college how Nagisa kissed him with recklessness. It wasn't spontaneous.

Rei could tell Nagisa had thought it out. The seriousness in his tone demanding answers. Answers to a question Rei definitely had the answer to.

Because after all these years he did not miss human touch. Nor did he miss the feel of another man. He missed Nagisa. But he understood they both had to grow apart before they grew together. They had to experience life without each other because that was how they worked.

"I would love to go out with you," Rei blushed.

It felt like all those years balled into the pit of his stomach as he answered. But when Nagisa threw his arms around Rei he could feel all that tension leave. Only left with the new uncertainty of what the world had left to bring him. He wrapped his arms around Nagisa's waist and rubbed his head against his chest.

Rei could hear Nagisa's heart racing. And he became hyperaware of Nagisa sitting on his lap. He looked up into Nagisa's eyes and saw that he was aware too. His mouth was parted and glistening with saliva. His eyes were focused on Rei's lips.

Rei licked his lips before Nagisa dived down, their mouths clashing together. Rei fell back onto the bed. He smiled into the kiss. Nagisa hurried out of his clothes and helped Rei out of his. Rei watched him dig through his suitcase and pulled out condoms and lube.

Nagisa kissed down Rei's chest and skillfully open the bottle of lube. Eyes fluttering shut as Nagisa wrapped his slick hand around Rei's cock. Pumping him until he was fully hard. Rei winced when he felt Nagisa's fingers push into him.

"I got you," Nagisa cooed.

Rei relaxed at his voice. He let Nagisa slide another finger inside. Body curling up with the motion. His body opened up, greedily accepting of Nagisa's touch. He was too embarrassed to watch his body suck up Nagisa's fingers so hungrily. Instead he left everything up to touch. Nodding whenever Nagisa asked him a question.

"You okay?" Rei nodded.

"You ready?" Another nod.

Nagisa slowly pushed into him. Rei let out a sharp intake of air. He moaned and grasped up at Nagisa as his body readjusted to him. Panting, Rei grabbed onto Nagisa's hand. Nagisa grabbed his and kissed it. And then he kissed Rei's knee which was pushed back to allow better entry. Rei moaned as Nagisa made slow movements inside of him.

"I missed you," Nagisa pushed deeper inside of him as he leaned over Rei.

Rei kissed him, hard on the lips, desperate.

Nagisa finally pulled out to the tip and pushed back in. Rei shuddered under him. He hooked his arms comfortably around his legs to allow easier access. Nagisa kissed his collarbone, moving slowly in him. Pumping in and out all while whispering how beautiful Rei was. Rei panted and moaned, cock leaking hard against his stomach. He realized in that moment that his socks were still on. Which could almost be seen as laughable until Nagisa pushed his right leg above his head. Rei clenched and wriggled beneath him.

"I have you," Nagisa reminded.

Rei relaxed at the words. Feeling the way Nagisa moved in him. Feeling Nagisa's hand slide up, still slick, to his dick. Pumping him senseless until he came. Nagisa smiled when Rei came all hot and heavy into his hand and against his stomach.

"Beautiful," Nagisa pushed deeper inside of Rei. Pumping himself to orgasm shortly after Rei.

Nagisa pulled out and laid on his side by Rei. Rei sniffed to try and hide his emotions. But years of holding them all in came undone at once. Nagisa let him sob against his shoulder. And he apologized to Nagisa the entire time. Hoping Nagisa would forgive and forget his behavior.

"I like Rei as is," Nagisa reminded.

And Rei was brought back to when they were back in college. And Nagisa would let him know he was liked and loved every day.

Rei smiled through his tears. Because he liked Nagisa as he was, as he is, as he grew to be. Maybe that was what Nagisa had meant, too. He hugged Nagisa, legs intertwining with his. They laid in silence for what felt like hours. Somehow they both had fallen asleep.

Nagisa had popped his head up first. Smiling down at Rei and rushing him awake. Rei bolted out of bed and checked the clock. It was almost midnight as Nagisa hurried him into decent clothes.

"We're going out," Nagisa childishly giggled.
