"Lelouch…"
"What is it Rolo?" He asked as he finished to draw himself up.
Facing no response, a glance past his shoulder was enough for Lelouch to comprehend what was going on. Because surprisingly enough, this time, there, laid in the high grasses, bathing in starlight, Rolo seemed unconcerned, not even by his brother. The boy remained silent, smiling even, stoically pointing at the sky.
"Did you make a wish?"
"A wish?" Rolo muttered on the verge of blushing.
Now standing up and yet still staring at the cosmic anomaly. Rolo asked him "Are you sure this is not a satellite or some kind of, hu…"
"Rolo, I am fairly positive on the fact that this is a comet." Lelouch ran a hand between the two of them, gently yet firmly taking hold of his brother's jaw; he forced the boy into eye contact.
"So, did you make your wish?"
It happened to be enough to instantly flush to crimson the amazed.
"I...am I am not supposed to say it. I do know that at least!" Rolo whooped, pushing himself away from him.
"Why are you so upset? Anyway, are you coming ?" Lelouch smirked.
"J..Just go do what you had to do and… And.. and just leave me here."
"Well, fine, I forgot my medication in the sidecar, I'll be right back." Lelouch whispered, dismissing himself.
Halfway down the hill they were sitting upon, something could be heard in the high grasses, running toward Lelouch.
"Hey Wait!"
"Ah, did he change his mind?" he thought as he turned back.
Do they collide? I ask, and you smile.
"Outch… my head, Rolo what were you running so fast for?" Lelouch whined, massaging his forehead. He opened his eyes only to realize they rolled down half the hill. And somehow Rolo ended onto him, probably as a result of the two clutching at each other during the fall.
"Rolo, are you alright?" Lelouch asked continuously, a tint of panic disheveling his usual composure.
The caramel haired boy eventually opened his eyes, seemingly confused.
One could say he looked like he was about to cry, just alike a child would after getting hurt. But even then…
"I..I.. I am sorry nii-san." Rolo started to repeat flurried by his foolishness, and startled by such unexpected proximity.
He tried to lift himself off of Lelouch which encompassed him of his arms, ultimately bringing him closer.
"Let me check your face, I can't see much in this darkness." Lelouch ordered.
The two of a kind closed distance, slowly and swiftly. He closed his eyes, stopped to breath.
"Rolo, your lip is bleeding." Lelouch exclaimed, now holding if not caressing the youngster's cheeks.
Lelouch knew how to be tender to a wound. His lips overlapped Rolo's as his tongue finally got a taste of the familial blood.
Their latent arousal for each other didn't take much time to show up.
Back at the dormitories, bumped forehead and slit lip gave rise to many shrugs, for they were just stupidly smiling and devouring cupcakes instead of aching for first aid.
"It's not like we had such a hard time to come back from the hill." They held as an excuse, right after the usual "we're starving".
Not to mention that some clothes were lost along the tumble although most of them happened to be disrobed in less marvelous circumstances.
On the way back home, for once, Rolo had the passenger seat.
