10 // Voice

[sole_choice]

*Calling right after he finished his text to Magnus and his errand there. Early evening-ish.*

[Voice call placed to Byakuran privately]

Byakuran-san, sorry I didn't make it over to the shop today. I had some things to think about and take care of. You should be back home by now, right? I'm on my way there now. I wanted to talk to you about something...

*He was doing his best to not sound as nervous as he felt, but probably wasn't doing that great of a job. God, he felt so sick...*

*Noting the way Shouichi tensed up, he frowned and slid his arms around his waist, resting his chin on his shoulder.*

... you're a really bad liar, Shou-chan.

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

I'm not lying. I don't like them. Something about them bothers me.

*And he wasn't lying this time. He didn't like them. He was just omitting that he knew why he didn't. He shrugged a bit and tried to pull out of his grasp* It isn't a big deal.

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

.... fine.

*Since he wouldn't share what the problem was, he'd let him be. Byakuran released Shouichi and turned away, going over to his dresser where he changed into some lightweight street clothes.*

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*He sighed and leaned in the doorway, though he averted his eyes and fast when he saw him changing* Byakuran-san, that's literally all it is. Usually I don't let illogical things get to me and I don't have any good reason for disliking those flowers, so it really isn't an issue.

... are you really going to go out now?

*Damnit, he should have just let it be...*

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

If you keep lying to me, yes.

I'm not stupid, you know. I know why they're bothering you.

*Situated his clothing and turned around, going back to the door where Shouichi was standig, a hand on his hip.*

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*He gave him a long measured look as he quickly figured out what his options were. Mm, maybe tonight had him making lots of bad choices...

He sighed and glanced away briefly before looking back to him, meeting lavender eyes when he spoke quietly*

Kikyou. I thought it was just a dream of a parallel world that upset you, but then there are those here.

That's all. It's still ridiculous and I feel like a jerk now. *And he fidgeted with the hem of his t-shirt again, dropping his gaze again*

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

*Byakuran stared at Shouichi for a long, long moment... then, he cupped Shouichi's face in his hand and leaned in, kissing him firmly, lingering for a few seconds. When he felt satisfied, he just barely pulled away and gazed down into Shouichi's green eyes.*

Kikyo-chan has nothing to do with us. He's a man from another world.

All you need to worry about is you and me and being happy here together.

Do you understand?

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*Shouichi's eyes flew open wide in surprise when he was kissed in response to that. Slowly they fell shut again until Byakuran pulled away. Only then did the flutter back open again to meet that gaze.*

... I told you it was illogical and stupid.

*He sighed quietly and glanced to the side* ... are you still leaving then?

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

*Sifting his fingers through Shouichi's hair, he appeared to think it over for a moment...

He leaned in and kissed him again, arms winding around his waist.*

Are you going to sulk about my flowers still?

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*He hadn't been expecting that first kiss, nor this one*

I... n-no. I told you it was no big deal, I meant that. I knew it wasn't fair in the first place, but you wanted me to tell you anyway.

*He felt like a horrible person for the next part, but hid it down deep* Don't go. Tonight was nice and I don't want you to just leave because I was an idiot.

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

*Finally, that serious look melted away into a smile and he nodded, hands gently caressing Shouichi's sides.*

Okay. I'll stay. Just don't make that sad little face..

*Kissed him again, hands sliding up under his shirt.*

Let's go to your room...

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*Shivered as he felt fingers on his bare sides and green eyes looked a little nervous. But if he balked now, it could get worse again and he didn't want Byakuran out prowling the night in a bad mood.

So he just nodded ever so slightly and turned to lead the way, pulse quickening and wondering if he could get out of this without doing something he'd regret too soon...*

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

*Followed Shouichi as he led the way to his room, keeping a hold of one of his hands. Once they got in, he went to Shouichi's bed and sat down, opening his arms to him, looking at him expectantly.*

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*The bed was messy, but thankfully clear of the things that were strewn about other places in the room.

He swallowed hard and walked over, coming to a stop in front of Byakuran awkwardly, not at all sure what he was supposed to do or what exactly the other wanted. Though he could think of several ideas and wished on occasion he could turn his brain just outright off...*

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

*Brought his hands up to caress Shouichi's hips, gazing up at him quietly, meeting his eyes.

Since Shouichi was just standing there, he soon moved his hands to take his and kissed them both.*

Non potrò mai fare niente non sei pronto per.

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*Shouichi's brain was not up to that task however and most of that blew right by him* C-Come again...? *He did move a little closer though, knees bumping Byakuran's lightly*

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

*Chuckled gently, tugging lightly at Shouichi's hands. He then let go of them and took him by the hips, pulling gently, wanting him to go ahead and sit on his knees.*

Nothing. Come here..

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

That's not fair, Byakuran-san... *He stumbled forward and plopped onto Byakuran's knees with no other place to go, nearly bumping foreheads with him.*

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

I don't know how to say it...

*Rubbed his thighs, leaning in close to nuzzle his cheek.*

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*Shouichi's breathing hitched and he was blushing faintly*

In neither Japanese or English? I find... that hard to believe given how you speak all three... just fine normally.

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

It just feels... like it means more, in Italian.

*Nuzzled into his neck, pressing his lips to the crook of his neck.*

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

. . . oh.

*Shouichi's head tipped to the side, breathing getting a little quicker, a little harder* Guess I'm out of luck then... a-ah...

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

It feels like it means more... like it's more honest, you know? I can't help it, I'm sorry.

*Slid his fingers into his hair, stroking gently, kissing his neck, tugging at his collar so he could kiss across his shoulder.*

[sole-choice.livejournal.com]

*He gasped again and every time Byakuran's lips touched skin a shiver ran down his spine, making it even harder to focus on anything else.*

Byaku...ran...san...

*His hands gripped at the front of Byakuran's shirt for purchase if nothing else*

[1000marshmellos.livejournal.com]

I... need to control myself.

*Softly, nipping gently at his collarbone. Slid his tongue up his neck and nibbled at his ear.*

Kiss me.
