Chapter 7

Rumors were flying around campus even before Souichi and Nagomi finished lunch. Never before had anyone seen the blonde in such an intimate conversation with a girl and speculation was high among their acquaintances. Of course Souichi was completely unaware of this as he started to face his own feelings and demons. He couldn't concentrate on anything at school and he knew if his lack of concentration continued, he'd mess up his projects. 'Damn it! I'm useless today,' he thought. He turned to Nagomi who was frowning over her results. "Sawanoi, I think I'll head home today. I've done all I can at the moment. If the professor comes in, can you give him the report over on my desk?"

She looked at the older man with concern. His voice was…off and he didn't look very well. "Of course senpai, are you alright? You look sick."

"I'm fine!" he snapped. "I just need some air and my current experiment needs some time to develop, that's all."

'Yeah, riiiight,' she thought. "Don't worry, senpai, I'll give it to him if he comes in. I was planning on leaving around 8pm tonight, so if anything comes up, just give me a call, ok?"

"Alright, I don't expect I will though," he'd noticed earlier that she was far more tactful than Morinaga when he'd been his assistant and at the moment Souichi was incredibly grateful for it. After he left the lab, he headed for the park near their apartment and strolled around, deep in thought.

'What's wrong with me!?' he sighed. 'Two men can't love each other, can they? That idiot would say they could, but I'm not so sure. …I guess I could just be obsessed with him, but that doesn't seem right either! God knows the sex is great…' he vigorously ran his hands through his hair, messing it up and almost pulling it down. 'Ok, yeah, he's great in bed. I'm even starting to participate more and he seems to like it. I enjoy experimenting with him…on him,' his eyes fogged over as he thought about last night. He closed his eyes and swallowed hard as a shudder went through him. He slumped down on a bench and looked at his feet. 'Ok, I admit it, I like what he does to me, and I want it!'

'He's never made me feel as if I was less of a man in bed. He's a bit…dominating, but I don't particularly mind that,' he thought, deeply blushing. He started to squirm, 'Why don't I mind it? I shouldn't enjoy it this much! I mean, everywhere else I'm completely in control, which is as it should be. I've had to be…for so long…' he frowned. 'Is that why…I enjoy it so much when he takes over!?' another shudder ran through him and he sighed. 'Do I want to be controlled? …No! Not really…at least not normally; just in bed…. No! That can't be true!' He put his head in his hands and rocked slightly on the bench.

Tetsuhiro was so busy with meetings and classes that he didn't have time for anything else. He completely missed the rumors starting to surround his lover. All he could think about was how to tell Souichi he wasn't going to be home for the full week he had originally planned. He'd received a call earlier from his supervisor in Hamamatsu asking him to return in two days. Since he was determined to get placed in Nagoya after graduation, he wasn't going to argue about an early return. He would do anything it took to come back to Souichi's side permanently! Now he just had to tell his cranky lover about it. He decided to go home early and fix one of Souichi's favorite meals to soften him up; so, he left directly after class without even stopping by the lab first.

Souichi made it home just as Tetsuhiro finished cooking dinner. He was quiet since he hadn't come to any definite conclusions in the park. If anything he was even more confused than before. His only certainty was that he wouldn't run away anymore, he just didn't want to. He needed and wanted Morinaga and that was as far as his mind would let him go.

As they sat down to eat, the younger man told him about his early return and how long he'd be gone for this time. "Two weeks!?" the blonde wasn't happy about it but he absolutely would not say anything negative. "Well, do your best and don't screw around!" he glared at his lover.

Tetsuhiro laughed, "Don't worry, Sempai! The work is fascinating so I can't help but get into it." He quickly turned serious as he added, "However I'll miss you terribly, it's going to drive me crazy!"

As Souichi started clearing the dishes, he stared at Morinaga and snapped, "Don't get so cocky! Just concentrate on your priorities!" He was secretly very glad he wouldn't be the only lonely one.

As the younger man moved in and grabbed Souichi he replied, "I am," and firmly kissed the older man. "Right now and until tomorrow, you're my only priority!"

Souichi groaned as he leaned into the other man's grasp and deepened the kiss. He was holding Tetsuhiro and kissing him so fiercely, the younger man pulled away to catch his breath. "Souichi, what's wrong?" he'd finally noticed that his lover wasn't himself.

"It's nothing! Man, you have the lousiest timing. Don't you get it? I want…" he trailed off when he realized what he'd been about to say. He shrugged out of the younger man's hold and headed for the kitchen to clean up. "I think we need to clean up in here first."

Tetsuhiro wasn't buying it, and grabbed the older man from behind and drew him in to his chest, "What do you want? What can I do for you? Please tell me."

Souichi closed his eyes and frowned. He was irritated, but more with himself than with the idiot behind him, "Why do you always do this? Grab me like this?"

Tetsuhiro blinked in surprise and answered, "Because there's less likelihood of you decking me this way." When Souichi twisted around to glare at him, he was grinning. He knew it would probably piss him off but it was the truth! He hugged Souichi closer and nuzzled his neck, "And it's easier to do this, too. So, Sempai, what do you want me to do?"

Souichi looked down at the hands holding him and groaned, his legs were getting weak, damn his body! "I want you…to…h-hold me…all night…ah…tonight!" he said it so softly that Tetsuhiro wasn't certain he'd heard correctly.

The younger man looked at him blankly for a moment, "All right!" He picked Souichi up, threw him over his shoulder and walked back to his bedroom, shut the door and tossed his completely dumbfounded lover onto the bed. Before Souichi could move a muscle, Tetsuhiro had him pinned.

"M-moron! Just what do you think you're doing!?"

Tetsuhiro had a wicked gleam in his eyes, "I decided not to give you a chance to back out, that's all. You also didn't look like you could walk too well either, so…" he said playfully.

Amber eyes glared into green ones, "You're such a jerk! I could walk just fine!" he snapped back. The younger man relaxed slightly as he looked at the incredibly stubborn and enchanting man beneath him. He gradually noticed how his sempai's body was reacting to him and he slowly smiled as he ran one hand over that lovely body. He heard Souichi sigh and met his eyes again. The blonde was obviously turned on and trying very hard not to show it.

The younger man started to unbutton Souichi's shirt, "Are you turned on? Did you like it when I threw you onto the bed? How interesting…" he chuckled as he leaned over and licked the other man's neck.

"No, I'm not…turned on…ahhh! And, and I didn't like it!" Souichi turned his head away which just provided Morinaga with more area to fondle with his mouth.

"Really?" He shifted until his crotch was positioned over Souichi's and he started rubbing himself on his lover. Souichi continued to get harder as the younger man provided friction; then he groaned as he closed his eyes and started to move with him. He was so completely into it he didn't even notice when Tetsuhiro let go of him and began to undress them both. When Tetsuhiro bent back over his lover he chuckled, "Sure you aren't turned on!" and he began to kiss Souichi as he rubbed and tweaked his nipples. He then kissed down to them and started sucking.

"Ahh! Damn you…mmm…Morinaga! Umm…could you move…ha…ha… down a bit?" Souichi eyes widened in shock, 'What did I just say?'

Tetsuhiro grinned, eyes flashing, "Down to where, Souichi? Where do you want me to suck next?" he licked the nipple he'd been working on. "Is this not enough?"

Souichi was wriggling around on the bed, trying to get Morinaga to do what he wanted without saying what it was, but the younger man could be stubborn too. Souichi wasn't getting the relief he needed and finally gave in, "No! Not enough…shit! You shit!"

As Tetsuhiro moved down to take Souichi into his mouth he kept his eyes on his lover, gauging his reactions, making sure he was enjoying himself. He didn't want to waste a second of their night together on side issues or roadblocks thrown up by the older man. He was determined to keep the blonde preoccupied and feeling as good as he could for as long as possible.

Souichi moaned and grabbed the back of Tetsuhiro's head as he began thrusting into his mouth. The younger man was surprised and very pleased at such a straight-forward reaction. It looked like Souichi really wanted this; and Tetsuhiro was just the person to give it to him. As the older man came, Tetsuhiro swallowed it all and made sure to carefully clean him up. Souichi moaned and started to get hard again from all the attention.

"Do you want me to do it again, or would you like me to concentrate on a different area?" the younger man wasn't actually expecting much from the question so he was quite shocked when Souichi sat up and pulled Tetsuhiro down for a kiss, his tongue pushing into the younger man's mouth. As Tetsuhiro responded, the two men collapsed onto the bed, Souichi was demanding more and the younger man was giving it to him.

Tetsuhiro had never seen the blonde so… very eager! The younger man broke away and moved behind his lover. Souichi knew what Tetsuhiro was up to and moved to position himself. 'Wow! I didn't expect this,' thought the younger man. 'This just keeps getting better and better!'

"Mmm…hurry up…Mori…ngh…aahh!" Souichi moaned when his lover grabbed his hips and started preparing him. Souichi really didn't want to wait, but Morinaga knew he'd regret it later so he held firm until he was sure his lover was relaxed enough to take him in. Then the younger man plunged in, he just couldn't hold back any longer and it looked like Souichi felt the same way. Tetsuhiro didn't have to do much, Souichi was moving on his own and it felt great, but as Tetsuhiro steadied him, he faltered and the younger man took over and slammed into him, probably more forcefully than necessary, but it felt so good, he got swept away.

As both men reached climax, Souichi arched back into Tetsuhiro and the younger man grabbed him. They tumbled onto the bed together and lay there panting, trying to get their bearings. "We got a bit carried away, Sempai," Morinaga panted into the other man's ear.

Souichi hoarsely answered, "You think?"
