Kurosaki Rei's P.O.V.
What do you do when you wake up next to someone you really love?
Because right now, I have no idea what I'm supposed to do! I read that question about a hundred times already, but has anyone actually ever answered it? Or maybe I missed it somehow. At the moment, I'm being cuddled by a sleeping Daiki, and my face is snuggled in his neck area! I can't breath! Each time I try to pull back, he tightens his hug.
I sighed. Do I wake him up? I lift my face a little bit to look at his face. I felt my face heat up. Uwaaah, he looks even more handsome when he's sleeping! He's always frowning or glaring, but right now he's not.
Can I kiss him? He won't feel it, right? Just a quick one …
I leaned in closer to his face and gave him a quick peck on the cheek. Hmm? He didn't feel it at all. Thank god. So … can I give him another one? I gulped with a flushing face as I leaned in for another kiss but this time on the lips.
One …
Two …
Three!
I pecked him on the lips and retreated instantly. I gasped when I felt him move in his sleep. I shut my eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Did I wake him up? I hope not! A minute passed and nothing happened. Which means he was probably still asleep. I sighed in relief and opened my eyes.
"How daring of you Rei, attacking me in my sleep." My eyes widened when I heard him speak. Damn it! I shut my eyes again. He smirked. "What are you doing you idiot? I already found out you're awake." I felt his hand move to my face and grab my chin. "Oi, look at me." This is so embarrassing! I can't believe he caught me kissing him! "If you don't look at me now, I'll kiss you."
Huh?
"Okay then, a kiss it is." I opened my eyes to meet his. "Hmmm? You didn't want me to kiss you?" I shook my head. He sighed. "But you were kissing me just now, why do you sound like you hate it when I kiss you?" He thinks that I hate it? "I never said I hated it!" He raised an eyebrow. "Then? Why do you always try to avoid me kissing you? You always try to push me away whenever I kiss you, it's annoying!"
I lowered my eyes and blushed. "I won't tell you!" He sighed again in frustration. "Fine! Be that way!"
Eh? Did I upset him? …
He got up and got out of bed. "I'm going to change, you go change too. Tch, school is annoying as shit." He went out of the room. He probably misunderstood me. I sighed and got up to change.
After I was done changing, I walked out of the room and heard voices coming from the kitchen. I slowly made my way to the kitchen to take a look.
"Mom! Can you stop being so annoying about everything?!" She giggled. "What? I was just saying how adorable you two looked like while you were sleeping together! Ah~ Rei really is like a tiny teddy bear compared to you! He's so cute, small, and huggable! I can't wait to see him so I can hug him again~"
Ehhhh?! S-She what?! W-Who's cute and tiny?!
"Don't you dare touch him!" She smirked. "Why so jealous? Are you afraid that I'd be stealing him away from you?" He clicked his tongue. "As if he would fall for an old lady like you!" She faked a frown. "How dare you call me old? Oh god, why is my son so mean to me~?" I couldn't help laughing.
Crap! They noticed me!
"Reii-chaaaan~ I need a hug" She was approaching me with her arms wide open when Daiki suddenly grabbed my wrist and pulled me to him. "I told you not to touch him!" She frowned again. "H-How cruel of you!" He scowled at her. "Like I care! Let's go Rei." He started dragging me out of the house. Before we stepped out of the house, I turned to his mom and greeted her.
"G-Good morning Auntie! And thank you for taking care of me! I'll see you later!" Daiki shut the door before she could reply.
"D-Daiki! Don't be so rude, she wasn't done talking…" He glared at me. "And you!" Woah, he's definitely angry. "Don't you dare say another word! I'm still pissed off at you. So shut it. Got it?" I frowned. "But-" He interrupted me. "No buts!"
We continued walking to school in silence. He kept sighing every 2 minutes. He was walking a bit faster than me, so I was walking slightly behind him.
What do I say to get him in a better mood?
I was interrupted from my thoughts when I felt an arm around my shoulder. "Good morning Rei-chin!" I smiled. "Good morning Keisuke!" He smiled back at me. I flinched when I felt death glares coming from Daiki. "Good morning Aomine-Sempai~" Keisuke scoffed. "Yeah right, my morning was ruined the moment I saw your annoying face." He growled at Keisuke.
I looked at Keisuke with pleading eyes and whispered to him. "Don't piss him off! He's in a bad mood!" He chuckled. "Don't worry Rei-chin, I'll protect you." He said that in a loud voice and then hugged me. I freaked out when I saw an angry Daiki approaching us.
He pulled me away from Keisuke's hug. "Keep your hands off of him!" Keisuke laughed. "What? Worried about your girlfriend being taken away?" My jaw dropped at this. I didn't tell Daiki that Keisuke knows about us! He'll murder me! "What did you just say?" I immediately held Daiki's hand and started walking in a fast pace towards school. "I'll see you in class Keisuke!" He chuckled and waved. "See ya!"
When we got as far as possible from Keisuke's sight, Daiki stopped walking. "What the fuck was he talking about just now?" He eyed me. I avoided eye contact with him. "He … found out that we're … together."
Eh? No reaction? …
Huh? He's walking away!
I frowned and called out to him. "Daiki! W-Wait!" He ignored me. That stubborn dummy! I ran to him and gripped his shirt to stop him from walking. "C-Can you tell me why you're angry?" He sighed. "Figure it out yourself!" It's probably about this morning. "Fine, I'll tell you." He raised an eyebrow.
"When you k-kiss me … I avoid it because … you're really good at it while I know that I … suck at it … so I feel … embarrassed. Also … you'll probably lose interest … in kissing me when you realize that … I'm no good." I felt my face heat up with embarrassment when I heard him laugh. "Rei, I swear you're so-" He didn't finish his sentence since he was too busy laughing at me! I pouted.
"That's why I didn't want to tell you!" He ruffled my hair.
"Cute." He muttered.
"Eh?" He smiled. "You're really cute. Idiot … didn't I tell you that I'd teach you? Stop worrying about it like a girl!" I blushed and slowly nodded. "And seriously!" He suddenly said in a louder voice. "Stop letting other people hug you so casually! Whether its mom or Yanagi! Got it?!" My eyes widened. I smiled at what he said. "Are you jealous?" He looked away immediately. I chuckled at his reaction. He definitely wouldn't admit it.
"Yeah" I heard him mutter.
"Huh?" He looked back at me. "I said yeah! I'm jealous BIG freakin time! You're mine … so stop letting other people touch you!"
Eh? … No way … Daiki said that I'm … his.
I was left completely dumbfounded. After that, we both walked in to school without saying another word.
When I reached class, I was welcomed by a grinning Keisuke. I went to my desk and took a seat. "How's your jealous boyfriend doing?" He whispered. I glared at him and lightly punched him. "Idiot! It's all your fault! Stop making him angry!" He laughed.
"Sorry sorry! I can't help it! He reacts like a kid. It's hilarious watching the 'Oh so great' Aomine Daiki stressed out because of love." I blushed and looked away. "S-Shut up!" He grinned. "So? How did you work things out yesterday?" I looked back at him. "I have no idea. It just worked out somehow …" He raised an eyebrow. "Aha. That's it?" I nodded.
"Oh, and he asked me to sleep over, so I did." He chuckled. "Wow~ you guys sure move way too fast!?" My blush grew wider when I realized what he was talking about. "N-Nothing happened you dummy!" He laughed harder. "Sorry! But your reactions are hilarious! I swear!" I sighed. I suddenly felt his hand pat my head.
"I'm glad you worked things out. If you need any help just let me know, okay?" I lowered my gaze and slowly nodded. "T-Thank you." He grinned. "Anytime, Rei-chin!"
Aomine Daiki's P.O.V.
Ah~ I feel so embarrassed it pisses me off. I can't believe I said something stupid like You're mine. It sounded weird. Tcheh. I have no idea why but an image of his sleeping face popped up in my head just now. Damn it. He's so cute, soft and fluffy.
Ah, he reminds me of a cotton candy.
I heard my stomach growl. Crap, I made myself hungry.
Lunch break is finally here! I stretched my arms then got up to head to the rooftop. I took my phone out and texted Rei.
[Oi, you better be on the rooftop today! And get me something to eat. I'm starving. See ya]
Less than a minute later, I received a message.
Sender: Rei
[I'll be there in five minutes!]
Tch, I expected him to send a longer reply. I continued walking until I reached the rooftop. I'll just lie down until he gets here.
It's been 7 minutes, why isn't here yet? A Second later, the rooftop door was flung open. "I'm here!" He was panting. "What took you so long?" He looked at his watch. "B-But I was only 2 minutes late!" I clicked my tongue in annoyance. "Shut up and give me my food." He walked to where I was and sat down next to me. "Here …" He handed me the food.
Huh? …
"Where's your food?" He scratched the back of his head. "They ran out of your favorite sandwiches, this was the last one." I raised an eyebrow. "But they have other sandwiches, why didn't you just get one?" He blushed.
"I prefer eating … your favorite sandwich." My eyes widened.
God, please stop making Rei look more adorable with each second that passes by.
I split my sandwich in half and gave it to him. "Take it." He looked surprised. "Ehhh? No! It'll barely be enough to keep you full!" I glared at him. "Just take it!" He hesitated but took it. "Thank … you." I ruffled his hair then started eating. A few minutes later, I was done eating. I stared at him while he ate. He's way too slow, and he eats like a kid!
I smirked as I leaned towards Rei's lips, and licked the crumbs near the corner of his mouth. He freaked out and dropped the sandwich. "You idiot! Look at what you did! The food is gone to waste!" He was blushing like crazy. "B-But you just …" He looked away.
I leaned towards his mouth again and smirked. "I just what?" He shut his eyes and lips. Heh, how cute. I leaned in and pecked his lips gently. It was done in a split second. He opened his eyes and blushed. "What?" He shook his head. "Nothing!" I smirked. "Did you expect more?" He covered his face with his hands.
"N-No!"
I held both of his hands, moved them away from his face and kissed him again. This time it lasted longer, but we were interrupted by the bell. "Tch, freakin' bell!" He immediately got up and headed towards the door.
"Oi! Where do you think you're going?" He flinched. "I-I'll see you after classes." He was gone after that.
What's the matter with him?
Shouldn't there be a limit to how awkward he can be? Whatever I'm skipping class. Too sleepy …
Crap, I fell asleep longer than I expected. What time is it? I checked my phone … shit! 4:00 pm … Oh, I got 3 messages from Rei! He better be waiting for me.
Sender: Rei – 3:05 pm
[I'm waiting at the school gates. See ya]
Sender: Rei – 3:20 pm
[Where are you ...?]
Sender: Rei – 3:45 pm
[I guess you went home … I'm going for lunch with Keisuke at Maji Burger. Try to come if you can. Take care.]
HE WHAT?! Lunch with Keisuke? Try to come if you can, my ass! I'm gonna kill him. I dialed his number and called. No answer, Tch, does he ever pick up the phone?!
I'll call one more time.
[Heyy Aomine-Sempai~]
That bastard!
[Why are you the one answering the phone call?!]
He chuckled. [Rei-chin went to the bathroom. He'll be back soon. Oh! And by the way, you shouldn't make him wait that long for you! You hurt his feelings you know! He's so sad … it makes me want to give him a big hug!]
I tightened my grip on the phone.
[Put him on the phone you bastard]
[Eh? But I told you he's in the bathro- Oh! Rei-chin~ we were just talking about you!]
[Huh? Who are you talki- Hey that's my phone! Give it back!]
[Okay! Chill, sheesh! Here, it's Aomine]
[H-Hello?]
[Stay there and don't move an inch. I'm coming to kill you] (Click) I ended the phone call.
That idiot! I'm going to pulverize him! I got up and made my way to Maji Burger.
I spotted Rei as soon as I entered the restaurant. He was shaking as I approached him. "You idiotic monkey!" He flinched.
Huh? Where's that smug faced bastard?
"Where's Yanagi?!" He looked away. "H-He went out just a few minutes ago." I raised an eyebrow. "Heh, good riddance! Now … tell me, how dare you ditch me for that bastard?!" He frowned. "Y-You're the one who didn't show up! Even though I waited …" I sighed.
"Sorry, I fell asleep on the rooftop and skipped classes for the rest of the day. I woke up and saw your messages at 4." He blushed.
"O-Oh …"
Is that all he has to say? "Are you done eating?" He nodded. "Let's go out for a walk then." He nodded again.
Tch, he's being too quiet.
Ah, that reminds me … he hasn't bothered me with his 'I love yous' at all today.
"Oi Rei! Why are you being too quiet?! It's annoying." He was freaking out again. I sighed and grabbed his wrist then dragged him to an alleyway. "Rei" He looked at me.
"Tell me … you love me." His eyes widened.
"EH?!"
I glared at him. "Shut up and say it!" He looked away. "W-Why?" What does he mean why? "Tch, you always say it, why are you feeling awkward about it now?!" He frowned. "I won't say it!" I pinned his hands to the wall. "Say it." He shook his head. "No! Not until you say that you love me too!" My eyes widened.
…
Oh … is that why he's not saying it?
I let go of his hands and looked away. "Why are you insisting on hearing me say it?" He raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean why? … It's … normal to want to hear the person you love say 'I love you'" I sighed.
"Not necessarily … they can show how they feel without having to say it." He frowned.
"Does that mean that you'll never say it?"
It's not that I don't want to say it. It just doesn't want to come out.
"T-Then, why were you asking me to say it just now?" I flinched at his question. I lowered my eyes. "No reason, I'm just … used to it, I guess." My eyes widened when I saw tears fill his eyes.
"You're really selfish … Daiki. I … want to hear you say it too … that you love me … Even if you say it just once … one time is enough, so please …" He was sobbing while I stood there speechless. Damn it, I didn't mean to make him cry …
I really don't like it when you cry, Rei. So stop crying.
I pulled him into my arms and hugged him tightly. "I never said it before …" He lift his head to look at me.
"Eh?"
I put my hand behind his head and buried his face in my chest. I don't want him to see my embarrassed face. "The words that you throw at me everyday! I never said them to anyone before … because I never felt anything for anyone else before … you're an exception. I'm telling you now that … I'm not good with these words, so put up with me for a while. I'll definitely say it … one day. Okay?" I felt him hug me back and nod.
"I love you, Daiki…"
When he first confessed to me back then, I thought of his feelings as nothing but disgusting. Seriously, what was I thinking? I never knew how happy his confessions would make me now. Although I can't say it yet, I can feel it.
I love you, Rei.
