Chapter Ten
He waved at Kenma's departing train long after the other was out of sight, thought about texting the other boy to say something, checked his pockets, no phone. Left the station. Yawned, couldn't figure out why, his head was foggy and his skin was too warm, yawned again. The walk home was boring without Kenma beside him, wondered when he'd see the other again.
Next week. A voice reminded him, he nodded to himself, his head heavy. He blinked, looked around, he was closer to home than he was a moment ago. Blinked again, stood in front of Ukai's shop. Went inside. Yawned, blinked. In front of the counter. "One meat bun." His voice sounded far away but felt his lips moving. There was a bag, handed coach a bill, yawned. "Are you okay?" A curious brow tilted up at him, blinked. Coach's face much closer to his. He whined, "'m tired." Blinked again.
A belt. A seat belt. Head still heavy. Blinked again, Ukai's on the phone. He groaned.
"Where are we?" Everything is black. Blinks in reverse. Dashboard in front of him. Pressure on his chest. Seat belt.
Warmth under his body, sky on the ground. Lifts his head. Coach again. Ashes falling onto his uniform. "Shoyo!" Natsu. Blinks again.
His pillow, still smells like Kenma. Kenma has cool hair. Yawns. Looks up. No coach. Sato-san, his mother, Natsu on top of him, all looking down at him. "-Give him more?" More what? "The bottle only says two every twelve hours." Bottle? He groans, the voices stop. A pressure on his shoulder. Warmth on his forehead. Groans again. "Let big brother sleep, Natsu." A whine, not from him. Heat is pulled from his body, Natsu is gone. Rolls over. Smells Kenma. Blackness.
Blinks. Weird dream. Yawns. Stretches. Looks around. Afternoon. Sun still bright but setting. There's something on his nightstand that isn't his phone, picks it up, Kenma's, puts it down, He'll probably want this back. Picks up the phone next to it, texts Kenma:
"You left one of your games here ill bring it next weekend" A minute, then two, then ten. Eyes are heavy. Phone beeps, twice.
"Hinata, coach asked me 2 check on you" Captain Daichi. Why'd coach ask that? Not a dream. More. Two. Bottle.
"Im better now want to practice tomorrow?"
"Keep it." Keep what. Game. Blinks. Same sight, same message.
"I cant it looks really expensive"
"I have another one." Wonders how many game consoles Kenma has to just give him one. A lot. Wonders where Kenma works. Probably a game store. Kenma doesn't like talking. Probably on the internet. Wonder if he'll get me one. Laughs. Another beep.
"If ure feeling better tomorrow. I'll bring some of the guys." Wonders which guys, hopes Tsukishima isn't invited. Blinks. Phone is black. Room is black.
"Are you really sure" To Kenma, he can't accept this gift for a pie. Should have given Kenma the rest of the pie.
"Can you bring meat buns senpai" Giggles, Daichi likes meat buns almost as much as he does.
Eyes closed. Phone Beeps. Then again. Eyes opened.
"Only if ure good." and,
"Yes, I have some other games if you want them." More gifts. He needs to make more pies. Sighs. Kenma looks really mean but he's really nice, who knew. Model Boy, probably. Grand King looks nice, does that mean he's mean? Does he looks nice and is nice? Blinks. Grand King's number is the pocket of his uniform.
The one he's wearing.
Swallows.
Digs into his pocket. Nothing. The other one has the same piece of paper from all those days ago. Stares at it. Can't read, too dark.
Turns on the light, numbers and words stare back at him. Types them in. Saved as The Grand King. Swallows.
"Do you look nice and act nice or are you mean and look nice" It's confusing, he's not sure how to word it, never knows how to word it. Waits. Blinks. No beep but a message is there.
"Chibi-chan?" and,
"I'm always nice." There's a bunch of little faces, he's not sure what to make of them, and,
"Why are you texting me so late, are you bored, Shrimpy-chan?" More faces, The Grand King texts weird. Proper like Kenma but he can almost hear Grand King's voice. Girl troubles? Daddy issues? He can feel the hand on his head. Closes his phone. Opens it again.
"I was just wondering kenma looks mean but hes really nice wondered if you were opposite" Sends. Waits. His teeth are grimy, should brush his teeth and sleep. Practice with Daichi tomorrow. But he's not tired.
"Who's Kenma, are you cheating on me, Hinata?" Blinks. Then again. The message is the same. The tiny faces mean the same thing. Cheating? Grand King used his actual name.
"Kenmas my friend hes nekomas setter" Wondered when he started referring to Kenma as his friend instead of his rival.
"Only friends?"
"He's my rival" Wonders if Grand King knew he had left that out.
"Anything else?" Wonders what more there could be besides friends and rivals.
"Like what?"
"Best friend? Senpai? Boyfriend?" Boyfriend? Blinks.
"Im not a girl" Did Grand King think he was a girl?
"I never thought you were." Then why did he ask? then,
"Boys and boys can date, Chibi-chan." He knows that, didn't know Grand King knew that, Of course Grand King knew that.
"Ive never dated" Not sure why he says it, wants to not say it. Claps his phone closed, hopes it breaks.
"Aww, I'll date you, Shrimpy-chan!" There's more faces, and hearts. Speaking of hearts, his is stuck and his face is not heating up.
"Why youre my rival" Mind games, his brain supplies, he should get away from The Grand King, He's playing you.
"I'm not hearing a no." You can't really hear anything over text, he focuses on that.
"Why" Simple question, should get a simple answer, Nothing about Grand King is simple. Not even the name.
"You're cute, I'm hot, I play volleyball, you play volleyball. Why not, is the real question." He doesn't think that's the real question that needs to be asked.
"You dont know if i like boys" He doesn't even know if he likes boys, Kiyoko-san is really pretty, but he can't picture the two of them together. Can't picture Kiyoko-san with anybody, really.
"Do you like boys?" It's another simple question, but when Grand King says it, it sounds like a million questions. He can feel the snake eyes through the phone. I don't know. He should say. No. Would be better.
"Im not sure" He settles on eventually.
"Then go out with me and find out." That's blunt. Grand King is blunt. Blunt doesn't mean mean. Remembers his mission. Dating the Grand King. Swallows. Kageyama would kill him, but he's curious about Grand King. Shouldn't be. Kageyama had warned him about The Grand King. Mind games. Gulps. His fingers are shaking, can't figure out why.
"I think its a bad idea"
"Why?" Because you're the Grand King. Because you're my rival. Because I don't know you. Because you scare me. Because you see through me. Because Kageyama hates you. Many, many reasons. Good reasons. Doesn't use any of them.
"Because youre the Grand King" All the answers in one.
"And you're chibi-chan, you can be my chibi-chan. I won't tell Tobio-chan, if that's what you're scared of." That's only one reason to be scared of you. My Chibi-chan. Belonging to someone. That put a weird weight in his stomach. Not bad. Not good. Fear but not scared.
"Okay" Dread. That's the feeling. Grand King fills him with dread, and he just said okay.
"That's a good boy." More dread, Good boy, it's wrong. Feels so, so wrong. So wrong that it's good, a sick good that makes his head spin. Good boy. A beep. He should probably put it on vibrate, it's really late.
"Are you busy tomorrow?" Why. A date. Grand King asked me out. Swallows, stomach fills with dread.
"Yes" It's the truth, he has practice with Daichi and others.
"What time?" All day, all night. Everyday. For at least ten years.
"I dunno im practicing with daichi tomorrow" He should feel excited, but instead he feels exposed. Snake eyes. Watching my every move.
"That's your captain, right? I'm sure he won't keep you too long." He can see The Grand King's face in the tiny smiling ones that he sends.
"I'll come pick you up tomorrow and I'll practice with you." Wonders how Grand King will find him. If he could just hide and he'd go away. Forever.
Night if over before he's ready, there's blinding light on his face, and a stomach is heavy. Not with Natsu like in his dream, but with cramps and he really has to go to the bathroom. Gets up, ignores the could in favor of relieving himself. Natsu is on his bed when he returns. His phone is in her hands, "Natsu, what're you doing?" He doesn't want to smile, his phone is filled with Grand King's poison, but he can't help it. "Big Brother, Big Brother, your phone went Beeeep!" She giggles and his smiles, brightens, Grand King's venom is rolling in between her small, vulnerable hands. He takes it. Two messages from the Grand King. One he fell asleep with and another he woke up with.
"Good night, Chibi-chan."
"Good morning, Chibi-chan!" Wonders when The Grand King sleeps, if he sleeps.
"Good morning, Grand King" He wonders if that's too plain for someone who's taking him on a date.
Looks down at Natsu, closes his phone, hiding The Grand King's evil from her. He's smiling again, wondering when he stopped, picks his baby sister up. Gives her a kiss, blows her cheek, she giggles. "Big Brother, Big Brother, it's breakfast time!" She's squeaking as he squeezes her, "Oh yeah, Natsu? What did you make today?" Pokes at her belly, she has more of it than him, wonders how she can stand the chalky rice like Kenma can. Two. Bottle. Shakes his head, and stares at his sister. "I helped Miss Sato makes..." she searches for the word, something she does often, he's proud of her for thinking so hard, "Pancakes!" She shouts out eventually. "Oh yeah?" He gives her cheek another kiss, tastes like warmth and pancake mix. "Yes!" She chirps, then gives him a kiss back on the lips, she tastes like syrup.
"You didn't eat any without me, did you?" He asks, tone low and serious. "Nope, I promise?" He wonders if all children can lie like Natsu, or if that's just something that makes her special. More special."Promise?" He draws out, giving her a mock-serious look. Her lip trembles, "M-maybe one..." She admits under his gaze after a too long moment. "Was it good?" He asks, smiling once the truth was in the open. She giggles, also smiling brightly, "Of course! I made it!" Her hands are on his face, sticky from what can only be syrup. Finds he doesn't mind. "I'll just have to find out then." He puts her down, Natsu likes to walk on her own now.
She darts past him and into the living room while he washes syrupy fingerprints off of his cheeks. Natsu is climbing in Sato's lap, Sato is fighting a smile, she's always been fond of Natsu ever since they first met. Him on the other hand, was always on the receiving end of a hard look. He never returned it, because then Natsu would get mad at him for glaring at her friend. He attempted a smile that they could share, it felt weird on his lips.
There's no rice on the table, he supposed that rice and pancakes would be a weird mix, and doesn't question further. He hates the rice. Two. Bottle. Sits down, Natsu is staring at him, his pancakes are covered in sugar and syrup already. Smiles at his sister, she giggles, face covered in even more syrup.
Takes a bite, then another. The sugar is sweet and salty. Almost as chalky as the rice, but easier to handle when there's thick syrup guiding it down his throat. "My Natsu is gonna be a chef one day, right?" He finds it weird claiming his baby sister. My chibi-chan. His tongue burns for a second. "I want a show like Ramsey Gordon!" He has no idea who that is, but he'll always support his sister. "I bet you'll do better than him." He offers. She giggles again, her fork pressing a too big piece of pancake into a too small mouth. Sato sighs next to her, offers her a napkin. Natsu doesn't take it, just grins, syrupy lips quirking up at her. Sato looks like she's fighting another smile.
He doesn't finish his pancakes, he's too jumpy about meeting with the team and The Grand King. Sato looks like she wants to say something but doesn't, his food is in the garbage, thought about offering them to Natsu but the small girl is groaning from being so full. He brushes his teeth, thinks about brushing his hair, then changes. He's out of the door and sending a message to Daichi to wake up, but he's already at his captain's door by the time he responds.
"We can play at the local gym." He reads, as he leans against the door frame of Daichi's house. It's warm and blue and really close to Kageyama's house, Daichi jumps when their bodies collide, Hinata snorts, then offers his captain a hand to get on his feet. Daichi is a lot heavier than he thought he would be, Hinata can feel his arm almost fall off by the time his captain gets to his feet. "No pork buns for you." He says, face stony and Hinata groans loudly. "It was only a joke." Daichi's arms cross, "No pork buns for a week." He's close to tears, this has to be a sick, sick joke. He bows deeply, "I'm sorry, Daichi-senpai, please don't take this away from me." He whines out his apology, but his captain looks smug, so it must have worked.
"Maybe one." The older boy said after a long moment, when they're down the street, heading, presumably to the local gym. Hinata grinned up at his captain, "Thank you, Senpai!" He bowed again as he walked, might have accidentally rammed his head into Daichi's hip, but neither of them said anything so that was that. "So," he brought up as the gym swelled into view, "Who's joining us?" Daichi looked thoughtful for a moment, "Suga." Of course. "Nishinoya, Tanaka." Woot woot. "Uh-I think Kageyama is coming, and Yamaguchi might come. Tsukishima declined." Nice. Except Kageyama. Jerk. He nodded, smirking up at his captain, who just stared at him.
"You're sure you're okay?" Weird. Why wouldn't I be. He looked up at Daichi, at his eyes, the almost-grim line of his lips, and nodded. "Yeah, of course, why wouldn't I be?" Honest question, Daichi's lips rolled, "Coach Ukai said you passed out in his store yesterday." Daichi's eyes were both scanning and avoiding him, a stab of guilt racked his stomach. I passed out? The lapses in his memories making a little more sense. "Sorry for freaking you out." It was quiet, the only proof that Daichi had heard him was the soft coloring in his cheeks and his wide eyes. "Just don't do it again." He said, sounding like a big brother, then there was a big, warm hand on his head and he jerked. I have a date with Grand King. He swallowed, "Sorry, I just-" Doesn't know how to finish the arm settles on his shoulders, it's big, warm and comforting as they approach the gym, Daichi doesn't say anything but Hinata can feel the curious gaze on the side of his head.
Daichi opens the door for him and suddenly there's a pressure on his face, his head is pushed back with the force of it and he's falling but stops suddenly. "What the-" He groans, blood rushing into his face painfully, "I've got you." A voice, Daichi, murmurs from above him. "Am I dead?" He asks, wondering why he can't see anything. Daichi's voice is drowned out by a louder one, "Oh! Hinata-kun, I'm so sorry, I didn't think anyone would be there." Suga-san's voice is calling him. The afterlife is very dark. "Open your eyes, Hinata." Right. Does so. It takes a second for everything to fall into focus, Dachi's head is peeking into his vision and Suga-san is in front of him. "Was that a ball?" Suga-san laughs, an awkward chuckle as his cheeks light up, "Yeah, sorry, I uh- was working on my serve." Hinata processes, then says, "You have a really strong serve." Suga-san laughs again, but his eyes are worried and focused on him.
"You should really watch where you're going, idiot." Hinata sighs. His face pulses again. He's back on his feet, then growls at Kageyame. "Maybe you should learn to receive serves better, dumbass!" There's a set of laughs from behind Kageyama, he leans, looking behind his setter, to see his favorite senpais. They walk over, wrapping arms around Kagyama's neck, the setter is pushed into an awkward height to accommodate the difference in heights.
"Yo, Shoyo!" Noya-senpai grins at him, bright and welcoming, "Yo! Noya-senpai!" Noya-senpai's eyes light up at senpai, and Tanaka leans forward, taking Kagyama with him, "What about me, am I not your senpai?" He groans out the words, sounding very offended. Hinata rolls on the balls of his feet, "Well, that depends," he flashes a smile up at him, "Are you going to buy us meat buns today?" he tries to keep his face half serious and half smiling, Daichi's hand on his shoulder is not helping. "I-what? But- Why do I have to buy senpai-ship?" He groans again, giving a pleading look at Noya-senpai.
Noya-senpai does not help, "Right on, Shoyo!" He praises, then he drops Kageyama's neck in favor if Hinata's. "That's my kouhai!" Tanaka-senpai, for the life of him, is looking very much like a kicked puppy, but quickly agrees to purchasing meat buns for all of them. Hinata tilts his head back, looking at Daichi, who winks down at him. Hinata's face heats up as they share a smile. Daichi's hand laves his shoulder and they boom above him, "Let's do this!" His captain voice in place. "Right!" They all yell in unison, then the call is repeated by a single voice, Yamaguchi's who appears from behind Tanka, a ball in his hands and looking very different without Tsukishima at his side. I don't think I've ever seen them apart. It's weird.
He gives Yamaguchi a smile, and it's returned after a long moment. Everything is at ease after that, Hinata tries to learn as much as possible from everyone there. Especially Rolling Thunder. Almost exclusively Rolling Thunder. Kageyama refuses to teach him a jump serve, after the first failed attempt. Tanaka-senpai tries to convince him to get a gym membership so he can spike harder, but he's never lifted a weight in his life and had no intentions of changing that. He wonders if The Little Giant got along with his team. Probably.
Yamaguchi is convinced into teaching him how to float serve, "You're really cool, Yamaguchi, for learning that on your own!" Yamaguchi splutters for a long moment, then says, "I had help, from Makato-san, from the local team." Hinata nods, "It's still really cool that you got him to help you." Yamaguchi is blushing now and is giving more excuses, Hinata just smiles at him then gets his serve over the net. "That was a really good one, Hinata." Yamaguchi praises. "You can call me Shoyo, if you want, I mean." Yamaguchi blinks, like he just spoke gibberish, "We're friends, right?" He smiles up at Yamaguchi, who shrinks in on himself. "R-right." He looks at Yamaguchi for a long time, "Shoyo." It's quiet, curious. Hinata laughs, "That's more like it." Yamaguchi is smiling again. "Y-you can call me Tadashi, if you want- I-I, yeah." Hinata almost laughs at how awkward the other guy sounds, but doesn't. "Okie-doke, Tadashi." He giggles at the weird, pleased look on Yamaguchi's face. He serves again, it hits the net.
The meat buns taste great after a long practice, taste even better as Tanaka-senpai groans, handing over a stack of bills to Ukai, who's grinning wickedly. Tanaka hands out the buns to everyone but him, just stares down at him with a pleading expression on his face. "Can I have a meat bun, Senpai?" He snickers as Tanaka-senpai's face lights up like he'd just been given a gift instead of getting played. Tanaka-senpai hands him the bag, and he extracts the last bun from it.
"You're fucking evil." A voice rasps in his ear, Daichi, he realizes after turning to look at him, "But it saved me money, so I won't complain." Daichi winks at him again, and they toast meat buns before digging into them. A wicked smile shared between them as Tanaka-senpai prattles on to Kageyama about how great a senpai he is and how Kageyama should respect him more. They all split ways from there, all waving and making promises about their next practice. Hinata felt warm inside, and not just from the meat bun.
That wonderful heat did not last as long as he would have liked, his phone vibrated in his pocket and his heart filled with ice. Just knowing who it was from without having to look.
"Are you done?" Very convenient timing, he shuddered, suddenly aware of all the people walking around him, his eyes flit around, looking for The Grand King, but he was nowhere to be seen.
"Yes" He sent it quickly, then looked around again, Nothing.
"I'm by the church." That was just around the block, wondered how Grand King got there instead of running into them sooner.
"Im coming" He walked around the corner slowly and spotted The Grand King before he spotted him, his hair flippy and perfect as usual. He was staring down at his phone, probably reading my message,The Grand King was wearing plain, non-Aoba Johsai colors. Hinata wondered if Grand King looked good in every color. Wondered when he thought The Grand King looked good at all.
"Grand King!" He yelled, too loudly from too close, the other boy jumped and suddenly those snake eyes were on him, if Hinata wasn't feeling so smug about making The Grand King jump he might have been scared under that look. "Chibi-chan." Then there were arms on his shoulder, and The Grand King's face was too close to his. "U-uh- What are- what are you doing?" He asked, trying to make some space between them but Grand King's grip was too strong. "Oh me? Nothing." Grand King's snake eyes crinkled as he laughed, even when laughing, The Grand King looks scary. He gulped, felt Grand King's eyes on his neck as he did so. "Nervous, Chibi-chan?" The Grand King asked smugly. He growled, "No." He stuck his tongue out at the other boy then another pressure was applied to his face, and it definitely wasn't a ball. Unless a ball can have lips.
He pulled away, too shocked to do so earlier, "What are you doing?" His voice sounding a little too much like Natsu's for his liking. Grand King at him, Hinata realized that they were at the same eye level, Grand King was kneeling in front of him, almost on his knees to make it happen. Stupid fucking tall Grand King.
"Just kissing my date." His smile was on the wrong side of smug and it bristled Hinata more than he would like to admit, My first date is with The Grand King.
Girl troubles?
"Aren't you not supposed to kiss on the first date?" He mumbled, looking away from the stupid Grand King, and his stupid perfect hair, and his stupid smug smile.
"You just looked really cute, Chibi-chan." Hinata growled at that, I'm not cute.
"Don't call me that, Grand King." He hissed.
"Then don't call me that." That was fair, But no.
"Then what would I call you?" He grunted back.
"My name, maybe? The love of your life, if you want." Well played, Grand King, but fuck you.
"No can do, Grand King." Grand King looked smug at that.
"Alrighty then, Chibi-chan, so, what're we going to do on this date?" Shouldn't I be asking that?
"You're the one that asked me!" And Grand King laughed at him,
"I guess you're right, we'll just kiss then." Wait what.
"But- we can't- there's uh, people around, and there's a church right there, isn't that like, a sin or something?" Grand King laughed again, then started walking them away from the church in question.
"Where are we going?" He asked after Grand King hadn't said anything in a while, The Grand King looked around for a moment, then shrugged, looking down at him, "I'm not sure, I don't live around here, Shrimpy-chan." He sighed, this was going to be a long date. Grand King led him into a forest he didn't even know existed. All the trees were thick and covered in moss and it was really, really quiet. Almost unnaturally so.
"This is pretty." Grand King said, giving his hand a squeeze, he wondered when that had happened, "But not as pretty as you." He added, and Hinata sighed. He did not like being compared to a creepy quiet mossy forest. "And now we're alone." Grand King winked down at him, not the friendly, playful kind like Daichi had given him less than an hour ago, but an almost menacing one. Maybe it was just Grand King's snake eyes giving the action more impact. Didn't have more time to think about it, since Grand King's lips were on his, again, it was irksome to realize how he could recognize the feeling from only one previous instance.
"You've never kissed anyone before, have you?" Grand King asks after a long moment of Hinata being able to breath with someone so close to his face. How'd he figure that out? "No." He admits, quietly and looking away from The Grand King's stupid knowing gaze. "Sorry, what was that, something must be in my ears." Hinata glared at The Grand King, "No, I've never kissed anyone!" He all but yelled, the forest echoing his admission, making it ring in his ears.
Grand King just smiles wider, then sits in a pile of dried leaves, "What are you doing?" Hinata grumbles, looking away from Grand King's stupid face. "Getting more comfortable, we're going to be here a while." He growls to himself when he can hear the smile that Grand King has on his face. "Why's that?" He asks, before he can tell himself not to. "I have to teach my chibi-chan how to kiss." There's something different in Grand King's tone and it makes Hinata squirm in his shoes.
"Come here." Grand King says after a long moment of silence, he's patting his lap like he's calling a dog. Hinata snorts, and turns his head. "Aww, don't be like that, Chibi-chan, I'll sit in your lap if you're going to be stubborn about it." Wait what? Then all at once, there's weight on his shoulders, pushing him onto the forest floor and there's a hovering weight above his legs and chest, "I've always liked being on top anyway." Grand King says, giving him another wink, and a wicked smirk before his lips are pushing into Hinata's, then pulling back. "Open your mouth." Grand King's voice is like gravel against his face and he does open his mouth, but to respond not to- that's a tongue.
There's a tongue in my mouth. He feels like screaming. It's so wet, and warm. He swallows. Grand King pulls back. "You could at least act interested." Grand King says, voice flat almost like a warning. Hinata splutters, not sure how to respond to that. "I-What do you mean?" He swallows again, Grang King's heat still in his mouth. "Just do what I do with my tongue." Then he's too close, and Hinata can smell the smell of The Grand King. Like mint and leather. He shudders, he could have lived very happily without this information.
Grand King's tongue pushes into his mouth, tongue pushes at his, he pushes back. Grand King huffs into his mouth, a smirk, then spins his tongue around Hinata's. He returns the gesture, So warm. So wet. It's almost gross, but it feels... He's not going to think it, if he admits it, even to himself, The Grand King would know. He's not sure which of their mouths squelch but the sound sends sparks down his spine and there's heat in his cheeks.
The contact is over and Hinata almost whines, his mouth filling with not warmth. "You like that, Chibi-chan?" Grand King sounds breathless and it's the first time he's ever heard The Grand King sound like that. "Uh-" He answers, brain still a little hazy and not-warm. Grand King doesn't wait for an answer and their lips meet again, why do I crave this warmth. It's an odd question, he realizes, everyone wants to be warm, and the thought of kissing is suddenly much less awkward.
Grand King's tongue rolls against his again and he moans. Not from pain, not from anything but pleasure and he's never been more embarrassed in his life; Grand King pulls back and Hinata can see muscles working in his face but he just pulls that stupid face back against his and pushes his tongue into Grand King's mouth. He can still feel that smile and he growls, pushes against Grand King's too big chest, making him fall back and Hinata falls with him.
The Grand King's heart, he realizes, is beating just as quickly as his. Their bodies are pushed against each other, then his entire body freezes. "Uh-G-Grand King?" Hinata asks, pulling away from the other boy, "You're uh-" He looks at the space between their bodies then back up at The Grand King, who's smiling, but with a more dazes expression that doesn't make Hinata a little smug. "I'm what?" Grand King asks, sounding very much like he knows what Hinata is saying. "Your...thing." He swallows, even that sounded wrong.
"What thing?" Grand King asks, their eyes meeting and Hinata wanted to punch that stupid smug expression. "Your penis." He hides the word in a cough, and his face is not flaming from embarrassment, it's just hot. Hot outside. "You mean this?" And Grand King presses his thing into Hinata's thigh. "That thing?" Hinata nods, mute at the actions of The Grand King. Are all first dates like this? I should really stop watching movies with Natsu.
"Your thing is like that too, you know?" And Hinata is suddenly very aware of how his thing is reacting. He splutters, face even hotter, a feeling of I want to die spreading across his entire brain. "You want me to help you with that?" And Grand King's warm, heavy hands are sliding across his entire body. He whines and shakes his head, "N-no" he stutters, digging his burning face into Grand King's chest. Grand King wants to... He shudders at the images his mind creates.
"Maybe next time then." Grand King says casually, then his lips are pushing at Hinata's. Next time? He swallows and falls victim to that warm, wet comfort spreading through him. Next time. He shudders. It's hard to see Grand King's face last time they pull away. "I should probably get home," He says, panting hard against Hinata's ears, heating them and more images flash across his mind. "Have a uh, problem to take care of." There's enough light to see Grand King's stupid smirk, Hinata wonders how he can just talk about things to casually.
Then Grand King smacks his butt and he yelps, glaring down at the stupid, perfect, laughing face. "Why'd you do that?" He whines, his ass stinging. "Just making sure people know you belong to me." Belong to? He swallows. "Nobody looks at my butt." It's almost an accusation, but his voice is kind of choked up from not screaming at the stinging. "Let's try to keep it that way, Chibi-chan." A threat. He swallows, "R-right." He mumbles, wondering why anyone would look at his butt instead of The Grand King's.
"Want me to walk you to the station?" He offers, even if he doesn't want to. Grand King shakes his head, "I'll be fine, Chibi-chan." Then Grand King ducks and gives his cheek a kiss and that's weirder than shoving his tongue in Hinata's mouth. It felt nice. Comforting. Didn't know Grand King could do comforting. "See you tomorrow, Chibi-chan." Tomorrow? He nods anyway, then Grand King disappears, whistling as if he hadn't just been kissing a boy in a dark forest for hours. Grand King is scary with how casual he is. Does he do that a lot? Just pick someone and kiss them? Grand King seemed like the kind of guy to do that. Shrugged, walked home quietly, not wanting to think about The Grand King, or his perfect hair, or smile, or lips, or tongue.
He sighed, he had a lot not to think about tonight.
