~The Happy Ending ~
Fuji was briskly pulled away from Dream Land back to reality when he felt a ball of energy bounce on his bed next to him. He opened his eyes, checking who it was that disturbed him so early in the morning before sighing and falling back asleep. He pulled his covers above his head, clearly signalling the intruder to leave him and his beauty sleep alone. "Mou Mitsu, it's still so early!" he moaned, eying the clock that clearly showed it was around 5AM in the morning. "We won't start trekking before another one hour..."
But the little boy paid him and his complaints no heed. He bounced around the bed, shaking it to wake the honey-haired man. "Fuji-sensei, I want to go to the river to play! It won't take long; just ten minutes, pleeease?" he begged, using his puppy eyes at full strength. He knew the other wouldn't be able to resist much longer. "The others aren't up yet so it will be only you and me!"
His thoughts were confirmed when Fuji sighed again and got up, deciding that he could no longer fall asleep with so much noise anyway. He was going to blame Tezuka later on for keeping him up so late last night. He pulled the five-year-old boy on his lap and ruffled his chocolate brown hair playfully. "Alright, you win," he said, faking an exasperated tone. "I sometimes wonder why you are so different from Tezuka despite having almost the same given name and physical appearance as him..."
"So can we go to the river to fish? You brought me there yesterday sensei!"
Fuji flashed a smile at him. "I'll change and get ready first, so you will have to wait for me a bit." He set the boy down on his two feet again before making his way to the washroom.
When both were ready, they exited the hotel and made their way towards the river stream. They shared a knowing grin once they've reached the cold waters; a silhouette was already sitting there, watching his fishing rod with his back facing them. Fuji put a finger in front of his lips, silently telling the small boy to keep quiet. They both advanced quietly towards the lone man, pouncing in sync on him when they were close enough. "Gotcha!" they exclaimed at the same time.
Suddenly having two more extra weigh pressuring him, Tezuka did his best not to scowl at them. "Fuji, let go. I'm trying to fish."
"Why are you always up so early, Tezuka-sensei?" the smallest boy asked, completely ignoring his first command.
"To fish," the mountaineer retorted, as if it was the most obvious fact in the world.
Again, there was a silence and Fuji and Mitsu shared knowing grins. On three, they both released Tezuka and dove for the water stream. They splashed each other with the cool liquid, laughing and squealing like little kids would do –which they technically were, since Mitsu was six years old, and Fuji was only six-and-a-half himself. Tezuka stared at the silly duo with a vein throbbing on top of his head. With so much noise around, he probably wouldn't even catch half a fish. Defeated, he tidied up and sat back down on the grass, waiting for the two children to finish their game so they could head back to the hotel to eat breakfast.
Why did he agree on becoming a guide for a summer camp filled with kids again? Oh right, because Fuji blackmailed him into doing so. ("It's for experience, because you will never have children as long as you stay with me, Tezuka" had Fuji said, his voice betraying his sadness.) How could he refuse the prodigy anything, anyway?
The second Tezuka stood up to leave, a pair of arms dragged him right back into the waters where he was kept captive. Fuji chuckled at his annoyed expression as Mitsu poured water over him. "Awe come on Tezuka-sensei, try to enjoy yourself while you are still young!" Fuji joked, "Or you will become old and grumpy in no ti–"
Without letting him the time finish, Tezuka pinned Fuji in the river, effectively making him gasp in shock. Mitsu giggled, launching himself on Tezuka immediately to join the fun. Fuji wriggled, trying to escape the mountaineer's tight grasp and get him back. "Help me, Mitsu, I'm stuck!" he chanted.
Without further hesitation, the small boy snatched his Tezuka-sensei's glasses and ran away with them. Grunting, Tezuka chased after him, followed by a grinning Fuji closely. The trio made their way back to the hotel where they changed out of their wet clothes and waited for the rest of the kids attending camp plus their supervisor to wake up. Once alone in the timidity of their room (after Tezuka claimed his glasses), Fuji sat down on his bed and chuckled at their previous childish stunts. "You're quite good with kids, Tezuka," he complimented. "You will make a good father someday."
The bespectacled man sat down beside him in his freshly changed clothes. He draped one arm around Fuji, and pulled him close to his chest. "I'm sorry," he said sourly, tightening his grip around his lover's slender shoulders.
"For what?"
"For not being able to bear a child with you."
Fuji's eyes widened. He stared at Tezuka incredulously, his heart clenching in pain. "You... don't want me with you then?"
Tezuka stared back, wondering how it came to that conclusion. On impulse, he pushed Fuji on their bed, kissing him senseless. "Don't be ridiculous," he muttered against the smaller man's lips. "I wouldn't lose you again for the world."
Fuji smiled into the kiss and pulled Tezuka down on him to deepen it. He parted his mouth, allowing the other's probing tongue entrance. They continued to battle for dominance while Tezuka's hand urgently started unbuttoning Fuji's shirt. Fuji moaned softly into the kiss, which resulted in turning the taller man on further. He was about done with the last button when–
"Tezuka-sensei, you are going to squish Fuji-sensei if you lie on him like that!" Oh right, Mitsu was still in the room.
At once, the prodigy pushed the mountaineer off of him and hastily buttoned up his shirt. Mitsu bounced on his lap, stretching both his arms as if to defend his teacher from the evil squishing Tezuka. "If Fuji-sensei doesn't want it, you shouldn't do it!" he reprimanded the mountaineer.
Tezuka quirked an eyebrow at him. "What makes you think he doesn't want it?"
Fuji playfully punched his arm. "He's too young for that Tezuka!"
"Fuji-sensei did say no! I heard him moan!" Mitsu defended.
Tezuka was about to protest against it but thought better of it. He was not going to argue with a child. He was not jealous of him. He was perfectly mature and responsible and wouldn't lose his cool with just that. Instead, he got up and walked towards the bathroom, because he needed to shower, he said.
When the door closed, Mitsu let his protective arms around his beautiful sensei drop. He spun around to face Fuji, a rather serious expression on his face. "Tezuka-sensei sure is mean!"
Fuji giggled. "That isn't him being mean," he explained, "he's just being shy."
Mitsu's eyes widened, just as a knock came from the door. Fuji went to open it, with the small child following him from behind.
"Ano, Fuji-sensei," came a soft, timid voice.
"Shuuko-chan," the honey haired man acknowledged, pulling the little girl into an embrace. She was the most soft-spoken child among their group and with her short sandy hair, Tezuka said she resembled Fuji when he was younger.
"Breakfast is ready, and the others are all awake," she said, and then noticed Mitsu, who was clinging onto Fuji's leg. They both blushed visibly when their gaze locked.
Fuji noticed it and grinned. They reminded him so much of how he and Tezuka used to be. Ah, sweet puppy love, he sighed. "We will be there in just a minute. Thank you for telling us." He settled the little girl back on her two feet and locked Mitsu's small hand with hers. "Bring Mitsu along with you alright?"
She nodded, and both made their way back to their room.
As soon as the door to their room was closed, Fuji positioned himself in front of the bathroom and pounced on Tezuka the second he came out. He pushed the mountaineer further into the bed, exerting most of his weigh on him. "Now then... how should I punish you for corrupting poor little Mitsu's mind earlier?" he asked, his voice sickening sweet. "You shouldn't let your guard down like that, Tezuka-sensei," he purred.
But before Tezuka could answer anything, their lips met in another passionate kiss. And they both knew that breakfast and the rest of the world could wait for a while longer. They needed to catch up on all the things they've missed during their time apart.
It was their happy ending, indeed.
