Tsukasa Tenma was pretty. Gorgeous even, one might argue. The way his hair looked, the way his facial features fit him perfectly, the way his ears would get red when recieving a personal compliment and the way his eyes would lit up and sparkle whenever he was excited.
It wasn"t only that. Tsukasa overally was just captivating. His personality was able to overshine everyone else. No matter where he was, he somehow always menaged to be the most interesting person in the room.
He was loud, always in the center of attention and stuck to Akito like a leech from the moment they met. Which was obviously irritating to the redhead. The blond wasn"t exactly the person Akito would find himself sticking around with, and more so, enjoying his presence.
And yet somehow, he found himself laying on Tsukasas bed, in Tsukasas room, observing his every move as he listened to his soft voice. He wasn"t sure how their relationship truly progressed. At first Tsukasa was nothing more than an annoyance, Akito simply liked teasing him because his reactions were always comical. And that soon developed into him enjoying the blonds shows, liking spending time with him and sometimes seeking it out, longing to see and talk with him again.
So Akito truly wasn"t sure how, but he fell in love.
Tsukasas presence was comforting and his usual loud voice that used to annoy him so much, now was like music to his ears.
At that point, he was barely even listening to the actor, he was just admiring him. The way his face looked now that his hair didn"t cover his forehead. The way he talked with such excitment in his eyes, while still keeping his voice soft, so he wouldn"t wake anyone up.
As Akito was thinking a single thought escaped from his head.
"You"re so beautiful"
The sentence was said softly, barely above a whisper. And it was only when Tsukasa stopped his monolouge and turned his head to look in Akitos direction the redhead registered the words that have just left his mouth.
With his eyes wide and cheeks flushed red he was even prettier than before. His eyes soon softened. "You think so?" He turned his whole body to be facing Akito. "I"m flattered. My cute kouhai thinks I"m beautiful."
Akitos face got beet red at that comment, he was very much not cute. Tsukasa smiled and continued. "Akito, my cute kouhai." He shifted closer to the redhead. "I also think you"re beautiful."
"Stop it with the teasing" Akito covered his face with his hand to hide his embarassment. "Ugh, you"ve been hanging around Kamishiro-senpai too much."
"Haha! Perhaps I have. But.... You know" Tsukasa chuckled nervously, his eyes shifting away for a moment before he looked in Akitos eyes again. "I mean it. You"re so cute, Akito."
"E-eh" Akito stuttered. Tsukasa leaned in to get closer to the redheads face. There was a soft smile on the blonds face and an expression so sweet Akito could get cavities looking at it. "Are you serious, Tsukasa-senpai?"
The blond giggled. "I would never not be serious about things like that. Also, you can... Drop the senpai title when talking to me." His smile lessened, his face becoming serious.
"Oh." Akito mustered up. "Okay, Tsukasa. Tsukasa" he repeated.
"Akito." The way he said his name in that moment was so sickeningly sweet and Akito wanted to hear it more.
"Say it again."
"Pardon me?" Tsukasas eyes widened slightly.
"Say my name again, Tsukasa. Please."
Said boy grinned sweetly. "Akito. Shinonome Akito. Akitoo. Akito, Akito, Akito." He repeated his name and it sounded just as sweet as before.
"I love how you say my name." Akito wasn"t sure why and how he was saying these things, it wasn"t something he would usually do. And yet, every praise rolled off of his toungue easily. "I love your voice. I wish you"d never stop talking."
Tsukasa put his hand on Akitos cheek timidly. "Akito" he repeated once again, his hand sliding down slowly to the redheads shoulder and then down his ribcage. He looked at the others face looking for signs of discomfort. Noticing none of that, he continued. "Akito. A-ki-to." He slid his hand down until it reached his hips, before slowly going back up to grip his waist. "Fucking hell Akito, how am I supposed to act now, after hearing these words?" He buried his head in the redheads shoulder.
And how was Akito supposed to act now when the person he"s pined for is holding him by his waist? And had his head on his shoulder? He truly had no idea, so he simply put his hand on Tsukasas hair and caressed him.
A thought appeared in his head- Maybe, if Tsukasa acted like this, his feelings were truly reciprocated.
And with that thought, he pulled the blond away from him. "Uhh, Akito?" Concern was apparent in Tsukasas voice. "Are you alright? You weren"t uncomfortable, right? You-"
"Kiss me." Akito cut him off. "Please." He added quickly. "Only if you want of course." He grew more and more red with every word he spoke, his voice less and less pleading.
After a second of awkward silence from the shock of the request, Tsukasa put his hands on Akitos face and leaned in, signaling that kissing him would be just fine. "Of course I want to."
Just a moment before their lips touched Akito backed away slightly. "Are you sure about this? I wouldn"t want you to do something you don"t want to" Uncertainity and perhaps even insecurity was showing through his words.
"Yes. Akito, if there"s anything I want to do right now it"s to kiss you." Akito tried responding somehow but Tsukasa cut him off by leaning in and touching their lips together.
It was awkward, neither of them really knew what they were supposed to do. Although still, it felt like heaven to Akito, the feeling of Tsukasas lips was the best thing he"s ever felt. It felt like a dream come true, he"d been longing for It for who knows how much time.
They pulled away slightly to catch a breath. That kiss wasn"t enough for Akito, and by the way Tsukasa was looking at him, he could tell they were on the same page. Both of them needed more. Soon, Akito crashed their lips together.
It was way more passionate this time. Akito pushed his lips against the other immpossibly further, as if he wanted to close the non-existent distance between them.
Tsukasa nibbled on Akito"s lip, initiating an open mouth kiss, and the redhead parted his lips willingly, inviting the other in. And so he dived right in.
Tsukasa"s mouth tasted like toothpaste, which shouldnt come off as a surprise, since he recently has brushed his teeth. Despite that, it tasted good. There was something sweet in it, making Akito crave more and more, as much as he could get. He wanted to feel Tsukasas skin, his hair, his everything.
So while kissing he grabbed the blonde by the back of his neck, pulling him as close as possible. He ran his hands through his blond hair and then he slid his hands so they"d be on Tsukasas back, pulling him into a tight embrace.
Tsukasa stopped the kiss, pulling away a little. Akito could feel the blonds hot breath against his skin and he was sure it was the same for the other.
"Tsukasa." Akito said with no further explanation.
"Akito" Tsukasa answered breathily.
"I love you."
"I love you too"
They stared at each other not really knowing what to say next. "So, uh. What does that make us?" Akito questioned.
"Boyfriends?" Tsukasa answered with a stupid cheeky grin of happiness and awkwardness.
Akito smiled back, just as awkward. "Yeah. I"d like that."
The blond giggled, kicking his legs from excitment. "My sweet boyfriend, Akito."
"Stop that." Akito said as he pushed Tsukasa away from him. "Are you gonna act like that the entire relationship?"
"Haha, obviously!" Tsukasa whisper-yelled, still wearing a grin on his face. "Why, is it a problem?"
Akito thought about it. "Hm.... Nah. It never will be one. Now go to sleep." He said as he layed himself comfortably.
"I don"t want to go to sleep yet though." He complained, pouting. He tried to find a comfortable position for a moment before giving up. "Hey, can I talk about my show again?"
"No."
"Why not? I thought you never wanted me to stop talking?" Akito flushed beet red at that comment, using his own words against him like that, what a traitor!
"Shut up," the contemplated on finishing that sentence, but he made up his mind after a second "babe."
