"Kyoya, why aren't the lights turning on?" Tamaki asked, flicking the light switch on and off, willing the shine to come back.

"Maybe the fuse went." Kyoya sat up in his bed. He had only a small lamp on while he was doing some work so he hadn't noticed anything wrong with the lights. But now that Tamaki pointed it out, he was also curious.

"Should we check?" Tamaki moved closer, watching Kyoya's face become shadowed as he stood up to look.

It was the light above his bed, so he could stand on it to put himself up to the ceilings level. He was right, the bulb had burnt out while he wasn't there. He had to make a note to get it changed in the morning. It was supposed to be dark now so it didn't matter much, but he knew he would miss it by the time the sun came up.

Tamaki watched Kyoya stretch high, his shirt showing the slightest smudge of skin. There was something about seeing little pieces under his clothing that put Tamaki in a good mood. He had to hold himself back from saying the repulsive things flying through his mind.

"Kyoya, you want to know something?"

"What is it Tamaki?" He was unscrewing the bulb from its socket, making sure to keep it close as a reminder.

Tamaki crawled onto the bed and wrapped his arms around Kyoya's waist, kissing his belly button. It shocked Kyoya a little but he only placed a hand on Tamaki's head, running his fingers through his golden hair.

"You're the light of my life." The joke was cheesy as hell but it made them both smile.

"What a light in shining armor." Kyoya held the light bulb over Tamaki's head like he had just had a revelation.

"That compliment is not to be taken lightly Kyoya." He faked seriousness but ended up grinning up at him anyway. Kyoya simply raised an eyebrow and ruffled the rest of Tamaki's hair.

"Lighten up, I thought it was a joke." Tamaki was gladthat Kyoya was playing along. These were some of his favorite moments, when he could really see how goofy Kyoya could be.

He struggled to fix his now messy hair but quickly gave up when he realized no one in the room really cared if he looked perfect. Thinking like that made him smile a little to himself. He pulled Kyoya's stomach closer and rested his head against it, grinning to himself. It was a weird feeling to not have to be perfect when you base your entire existence off of that one fact. He could feel it in the pit of his stomach but quickly forgot about it when Kyoya bent down to kiss the top of his head.

"You're much too light-hearted Kyoya. This isn't like you."

"I just wanted to light up your day." Kyoya kept his lips on Tamaki's hair, simply brushing them back and forth.

"You light up my life." This time he wasn't going for a joke and the look in his eyes told Kyoya just that. For a moment they just looked at each other, studying the past floating around behind their eyes.

They had so much together. And as afraid of change as they were, this seemed to suit both of them well. Kyoya was terrified of these feelings that he didn't even know existed. But now, he couldn't imagine why he was so scared. Nothing could feel better than these moments right here.

"Tamaki."

"Shh,"

They sat together like that until Kyoya sank down to his level, facing him. Tamaki put his arms around his neck, placing his head on Kyoya's shoulders. It felt like he was made for this spot entirely. No two beings could possibly fit together like this.

Tamaki knew it was nice to just stay like this, but that feeling of more was always hanging between them. He didn't know how to get it to go away and with Kyoya constantly brushing him off whenever he spoke, things got more frustrating. It had been a long time since that first moment between the two of them and still...

"So. I have a proposition." He held him by the elbows, making sure they were eye-to-eye.

"Oh?"

"Have sex with me."

"Tamaki..."

"Have sex with me annd...I'll tell you a secret."

"Tamaki, I really don't have time for notions like..."

"What if it had to do with becoming first in line for your families heir?" Tamaki's eyes were huge and soon Kyoya's matched perfectly. If it was anyone else speaking, he wouldn't believe them even a bit. But Tamaki was different.

"I-"

"You wouldn't even have to do anything. You said you were going to find out what to do when the time was right, but what if I told you I knew what that was already?

"I don't know what to say." And for once it was true. Kyoya was known for having quick, cool answers that could put anyone in their place, but something about this bargaining stumped even him.

"Please?" He was so sure of himself; every fibre in him knew this could possibly work.

"No."

"What?" He dropped his hands reflexively as if he had been burnt by Kyoya's arms.

"My answer is no." Kyoya pushed up his glasses and sat on the edge of his bed, pondering whether this was the right answer or not.

"But why?" Tamaki felt hurt. He thought this would work; he was sure of it. How could Kyoya just say no? He had the perfect plan.

"Even if you did have the answer to my life difficulties, which I have no doubt you do, it's not worth giving up your, or my, virginity for. That is something much more sacred than being first in line."

"But I want to give it up." Tamaki tried making himself look sadder with round puppy dog eyes, but Kyoya was like stone and didn't budge even a bit.

"Tamaki can you please stop for tonight? I want it to be special, alright? Can't you just understand that not everything needs to be rushed."

Kyoya laid back and sighed, watching Tamaki sulk, still on his knees.

"Come here stupid." He pulled him back down with him, laying Tamaki's head against his chest. Slowly he stroked his hair is soft motions. Tamaki's breathing calmed down a bit, letting his disappointment subside.

"Kyoya?"

"Yes?"

"You really turn me on. Get it? Like a light?" Tamaki looked up at him for an approving glance and Kyoya couldn't help but smile just a little.

"You're bright."

Kyoya nuzzled his nose against Tamaki's before matching their lips together.
