That idiot. That baka! How could he do this? How could he possibly be so stupid?!
If he's the idiot, why are you the one storming down the hall to see him?
I sigh to myself but continue trudging down the endless hotel corridor. Sometimes I wonder if Kasumi wasn't right in calling me naive all those years. How could I have missed this? Why didn't I get it? And better yet, why didn't he come to me?
Same reason you didn't go to him...
I slow slightly as my anger finally starts to recede to more clear thought and regret. We were both too afraid... Too afraid of everything we felt, too afraid of what everyone else might think. Too confused by it all... It was more than a thirteen year old boy knew how to deal with. So instead we turned on each other... Damn us... Damn us and our fears both... And damn me for what I did yesterday... But he just shocked me so much... Hitting him was some sort of instinctive reaction and I feel absolutely horrible about it. But at least now I'm going to see if he's all right. Lugia, I'm glad that this day is over... I've been able to think of nothing but Shigeru since last night and it's effected my performance in battle. But now all my Pokemon are in the Pokemon center for a good night's rest, including Pikachuu, which leaves me to take care of this... situation.
I stop in front of the room number that Ookido-hakase told me and stare at the door for a moment. I don't think I've ever been so nervous in all my life.. Facing a hundred gym leaders, battling the biggest battle of my life, even facing Kasumi's bike-driven wrath, it's all nothing compared to this moment in time. But somehow I manage to raise my hand despite the fact that it's shaking like a leaf and knock on the door.
"Tachimachi!" I hear called from inside and a moment later the door opens. Shigeru's clear hazel eyes widen as they meet mine and in a glance, everything I imagined saying flies out the window and I'm utterly speechless. So instead of opening my mouth, I throw my arms around his shoulders and claim his with it. His body stiffens and he freezes, stunned but I don't let go, instead letting my eyes close as I hold myself to him. He relaxes and his soft lips press against mine in return. His slender but muscular arms slip around me, fold around me, hold me against him and Lugia it feels so good... He kisses me hard and I pay no heed when his wild hair pushes the bill of my cap until it flutters to the floor, instead sighing in delight when it allows his fingers to wander through my hair. I cling to him with all that's in me, return his savage kiss, explore his mouth with my tongue.
It's even better than I ever imagined...
With a sharp breath, our embrace is abruptly broken and I find myself in Shigeru's arms, breath a little heavy as is his own as he gazes at me.
"Sato-chan..." he breathes, eyes searching my face. Oh god... It's been so long since he's called me that... So very long... Choking back a sob, I bury my face into his breast, still holding tightly around his neck.
"Geru-kun," I whisper into the fabric of his shirt, tears stinging my eyes. Shigeru... Can you possibly know how long I've wanted this? Can you have any idea how I've longed for you? I'm so happy it hurts... "I'm so sorry..."
"Satoshi..." He hugs me, nuzzling his face into my hair and I can't manage any response beyond a whimper. "It's all right, Sato-chan. Please don't cry." His hand finds its way beneath my chin and lifts my face to his. He's so... so beautiful... His eyes have a warmth that I haven't seen in years, a warmth that I've missed so very much... He smiles tenderly at me and I let my eyes slip closed as he kisses my eyelids and his lips whisk away the faint traces of tears lingering. I open my eyes, half expecting to wake up and find myself alone in my bed with only Pikachuu's warmth to comfort. But no, that heart-melting smile still graces my presence and his warmth is still against me. His eyes glance aside for a moment and a blush springs to his cheeks.
"Anou... Perhaps we should move somewhere less conspicuous," he whispers, looking at something behind me. I glance over my shoulder to discover an elderly couple watching us from across the hall, wide eyed. I sweatdrop and am quickly ushered into the hotel room. As an afterthought, I open the door again and snatch up my cap.

...Because I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like I wanna be
I've got to be chained to you...

Once inside, I mechanically remove my shoes and Shigeru stands over me, smiling faintly. Standing again, I feel a little sheepish and a faint blush lingers around my cheeks. I'm not exactly sure what I've gotten myself into... I've been in so few relationships, especially serious ones. The most serious relationship was that fling with Kasumi that turned out... badly. But now I realize that I was just trying to distract myself from Shigeru, trying to convince myself that I was a normal little straight boy. I discovered the opposite at Kasumi's expense, I'm afraid...
But Shigeru's different... He was always different. When we were young we were the best of friends, we had a connection unlike that of most boys. There was always some strange unsaid understanding between us that eventually escalated itself into something more... But then when adolescence rolled around and it was time for us to set out on our journeys, Shigeru suddenly turned into this magnificent bastard... I was so hurt and confused... So I decided to focus on my training. Nothing became more important than training and making it into the Pokemon League. It kept my mind off of Shigeru and that's what mattered...
The year after we started out on our journeys and that incident at the Tokiwa City gym took place, I thought maybe there was a little hope left... That maybe things could be rekindled... But when we met up again at Sekiei Kougen and he was still a jerk, my heart just kind of gave up on it and I lost a little piece of myself, I think. I jumped on the chance to compete in the Orange League, looking desperately for something new to give me a purpose... And because I was in the islands, it kept me away from Shigeru and away from those painful meetings of happenstance.
After that we just grew farther and farther apart, even when I finally did return to the mainland. We never saw each other anymore. Until he returned to Masara Town to visit Ookido-hakase a few years back and we met up... Something about him was different and my hope was rekindled... That was when I broke things off with Kasumi...
"Sato-chan? Are you all right?" I suddenly snap out of my melancholy reminiscence and find that Shigeru's looking at me with concern. I sweatdrop slightly and with a small sigh, hang my cap on a peg by the door and turn back to him with a faint smile.
"I'm fine."
"Come in and sit down," he says with another of those smiles of his. Just seeing him smile like that again melts all my defenses... Especially when he's gently slipping an arm around my waist and leading me out of the foyer... He has me sit on a small couch in front of the open sliding glass door that leads out to the patio. Stealing a glance around, I realize this is really quite a nice room... Big plushie bed, nice little sitting area, a wide-screen television with a little fridge next to it... Shigeru walks over to the fridge, gets the key sitting on top of it and opens a cabinet beneath it, revealing a mini-bar.
"Want something to drink?" he asks, flashing a grin.
"Aren't those usually really expensive?" I ask hesitantly. He shrugs.
"I can afford it. I am, after all, the grandson of the famous Ookido-hakase!" After a moment of rummaging, he produces a bottle of white wine and glances at me askance. I smile with a little nod and his grin returns. A moment later he's gracefully offering me a glass of pale liquid and then seating himself beside me. I sample the wine curiously, pondering over the slightly bitter taste. It's not been long that I've been a 'real' adult and I'm still developing a taste for alcohol... The sweet aftertaste coincides with the realization that Shigeru's subtle jubilation has subsided to a thoughtful silence. His hazel eyes watch me with a soft warmth but I can sense he's brooding inside. One slender, artistic hand gentle cradles his wine glass while the other arm is loosely laid across the back of the couch, behind my shoulders.
"Geru-kun?" More coherence makes its way into his eyes and they look deeply into mine. Lugia, when did his eyes get so beautiful? I can't tear myself away from his eyes, his gorgeous, honey-colored eyes... His face only a mere few feet from mine, I can see all the detail, all the depth of his eyes and a hot chill suddenly shimmies through me.
"How did we get here, Sato-chan?" His voice is a mere whisper but it seems to echo in the otherwise silent room. "What happened?"
"You tell me," I reply quietly, allowing my gaze to drop to the clear liquid in my glass. "I never did understand why you turned on me like that." The regret in his sigh is palpable.
"You always were the naive one, Sato-chan." I bristle but his disarming smile catches my eye and I just give him a dirty look. Again his smile fades to thoughtfulness. "There's a lot of reasons I did what I did, Satoshi," he says. "And they all seemed like good reasons at the time... Now I realize I was a coward." I take quick notice of the pain in his eyes, the self-loathing in his voice. "I did want to protect you... Protect you from me. You were too innocent to get caught up in something like that. But mostly I was afraid. Terrified. Afraid of you, afraid of the consequences of my feelings for you... So I just ran. And I pushed you away so that you'd never know how I really felt."
The sadness on his face is reflected in my heart. I never knew. I always thought I'd done something wrong or stupid and that's why he decided he didn't want to be my friend anymore. I was so young but I still could recognize the feelings appearing in me and I was so confused when he pushed me away. It crushed me...
"It hurt, Shigeru," I say quietly. I can see his pain, almost feel it but I know he won't show it. He's always been tougher than me like that. More inclined to turn in on himself than to show how he feels. "I went all that time thinking that I'd done something terrible and that you hated me. And deep down I still loved you even though I tried to hate you... No matter what I tried to replace you with -- Pokemon or friends or adventures or later, when I came more to understand what I'd felt, women -- none of it ever filled the void..." He makes a slightly disdainful face.
"You tried to replace me with women?" He pauses, dawning realization on his face. "You loved me?" I smile ruefully, examining my drink before downing a little more.
"Yes. Even when you called me names, even when I was yelling at you, even when I was with Kasumi... I loved you. I still do." This time he makes a horrified face.
"You tried to replace me with Kasumi!?"
"Shigeru!" He sweatdrops.
"Anou... Gomen ne. Sato-chan..." He takes my glass carefully and sets it and his own aside. His eyes are soft, softer than I've ever seen as they stare into my own and he leans closer to me. "I love you, too. I've made a lot of mistakes... I'm amazed that you're here... Can you possibly forgive me for the huge ass I've been?"

...And when you looked into my eyes
I felt a sudden sense of urgency
Fascination casts a spell and
You became more than just a mystery
And I think about you all the time...

I answer by softly touching his lips with mine. His protecting, possessive arms fold around me again and he meets my kiss eagerly. His wild hair tickles my face slightly as he leans me back a little and I tilt my head to deepen the exchange. Lugia... It's like no kiss I've ever shared... There's something about the way his hands cradle my head, the way his hazel eyes gaze into mine a moment longer before fluttering closed, the way time seems to come to a stop, that makes everything about it perfect... I've kissed a few girls in my time but I've never loved any of them. I might have tried to convince myself that I did but this is what I always longed for... My Geru-kun, the Geru-kun I knew and have wanted for over seven years... The Geru-kun that I love. Is that what makes this kiss so special? As cliche as it sounds, is this the kiss of true love?
It has to be. That's the only thing that can explain what courses through my veins as his tongue gently strokes my own, his hair yields beneath my fingers and I pull him closer. I'm finally home... Loosing myself in the moment, I drink in his lips and tongue and desperately savor everything about him. He returns my deep kisses with just as much passion and neither of us pays any heed to the fact that he's practically on top of me, I just delight in his weight on me, his warmth against me. When our kiss finally slowly trails off, I sigh with content and refuse to let him go. He seems to understand and settles in so that we're laying together on the couch and slides his arms around my waist, resting his chin on my shoulder.
"Thank you for coming to me, Sato-chan," he whispers in my ear. I place my hands over his and turn my head to plant a small kiss on his cheek but offer no reply.

...Is this fate is it my destiny?
That I think about you all the time
I no longer pretend to have my hands on the wheel...

You know the saying 'time flies when you're having fun'? I think it should be changed to 'time flies when you're with Shigeru'. Before I know it, hours have passed. Hey, we had fourteen years of history to catch up on when combined, what did you expect? He knows all about my escapades on the mainland and in the Orange Archipelago. I know all about his blossoming career and experiences with his sexuality... I guess things were a little ugly with his family when he first came out. To think he's been going around being gay without me! The nerve.
Aside from the conversation, we've of course been kissing and cuddling... I'm still amazed at how wonderful he feels. And especially now that there's some sort of determination in his affections that I don't notice until a splash of pink sparkles explodes at the nape of my neck where his attentions are currently focused. I hear myself give a small gasp of surprise and feel his lips dancing their way up my throat to find my mouth. Oh yes, I can taste the determination on his lips as he kisses me hard and I meet it with equal passion. And then his hands are caressing my face as he kisses me and I realize I too have a longing... The longing that's haunted me for so long... But now that I have the opportunity, do I have the courage to take it?
"Geru-kun," I murmur between kisses and he pauses, his lovely eyes expectant as they meet mine. I swallow hard, feeling nervous beyond belief... "I've never been with a man before..." His auburn brows twitch in surprise and he blinks comically. Well, shimatta, Shigeru, I told you I've been trying to convince myself I was straight...
"Sato-chan, I wasn't expecting.... I mean... I didn't mean to push you. Gomen, I shouldn't --" He tries to extricate himself from me but I hold tight and pull him close again. So that's it... I suddenly find my mind reeling with the decision I have before me. Shigeru... I've wanted you for years... In every way possible, I've wanted you... Dammit, I can't let him get away from me now! I need him...
"Shigeru," I say sternly. His expression is unreadable, almost blank as he looks into my face. I take his face in my hands and suddenly my throat feels tight... I just can't believe I'm here... I never expected to be this happy. "Shigeru..." I repeat and this time my voice cracks a little. "I... I need you..." Without releasing his gaze, I press a soft kiss against his lips but I see the hesitation in his eyes. Shigeru, I'm not the innocent boy I was seven years ago... Don't think of me that way... "Please..."
I search the depths of his hazel pools and his gaze softens. He claims my mouth in another passionate kiss and I close my eyes to fight back the tears pricking there. His personal way of saying 'yes' leaves me breathless when he relinquishes my lips and gracefully ushers me to my feet. He meets my gaze again, arms loosely looped around my waist.
"Are you sure, Sato-chan? Only if you're sure..." I smile faintly and feel a blush lingering around my cheeks.
"Geru-kun, I'm sure. This is something I've dreamed of for years..." He returns my smile and I feel his fingers caress my cheek lightly. I press a begging kiss to his lips, trying desperately to show him I'm sure. I've never been more sure of anything, Shigeru... His mouth presses against mine and I then feel his hands wander beneath the fabric of my shirt, over my stomach. I shudder, taken by surprise. His lips smile against mine for a moment before he breaks away to whisk my shirt over my head in one swift motion.
Oh god, he's skillful at this... He's kissing me hard, exploring my bare torso with talented hands... All I can do is fumble for the buttons of his shirt and finally let it slide off. Before I even get a chance to touch him he frustrates me by pushing me down on the bed. I hear a soft click and the room grows darker, lit now only by the moonlight streaming through the window.
Then his warmth covers me, his smooth chest brushes against mine and it feels so good... He feels so good... I feel breathless with emotion as he props himself over me and studies my face. His own features are bathed in moonlight, shadowing and highlighting his face dramatically. His deep hazel eyes sparkle with starlight and joy as he watches me and I swear the love there is almost palpable... How could I have let myself miss out on this for so long?

...I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like a wannabe
I've got to be chained to you...

His hands slide over my ribs and something inside me jumps even as his intense eyes hold mine. A coy little smirk flits across his lips which he then places at the curve of my shoulder to kiss across my chest, wet, hot kisses that leave tingling trails on my flesh... Lugia, what is he doing to me? I feel my breath become irregular as his lips travel down the center of my chest, down my stomach where I feel there's surely rabid Butterfrees having a fit.
My heart jumps into my throat when I feel fingers deftly pluck the waist of my trousers open but then his marvelous hands wander back up, neglecting to remove my cumbersome, uncomfortable garment.
"Geru-kun..." I moan as he softly bites the curve of my shoulder. I've never felt anything like this before, I've never felt so... I don't know, special, in a way. Not to mention aroused...
"Shizukesa, Sato-chan," he whispers through the darkness, a single finger pressed to my lips. "I want to make you feel so good..."
He's succeeding. I fidget beneath him slightly but he holds me in place with surprising strength. His hands slide around my waist to press into the small of my back and in turn, press our hips together. A faint kiss is placed on my lips before they wander across my jawline and his teeth are toying with my earlobe. Yes, he's going to be a terrible tease...
It's all I can do to catch a kiss here and there to return the absolute euphoria he's sending coursing through my veins... Everything he does leaves me breathless, his slow, purposeful kisses laid all over my body, his hands making their way beneath the waist of my pants, his soft chest and stomach fleetingly brushing against mine as he looms over me. I'm rendered completely helpless but gods it feels good...

...I feel the magic building around you...

Then he's moving down again, kissing more, down, down. I swallow hard as his artistic hands push down the fabric of my trousers and he moves off of me to remove them, followed shortly after by my boxers. Finally released from the uncomfortable prison of my clothes, I find a little bravery and push Shigeru down.
"You always were one step ahead of me, koi," I whisper. I don't have the talent for seduction that he seems to have and just being pressed against him is driving me mad. Somehow I summon up all my self control to keep from... "It's time to even the score."
He smirks a smirk reminiscent of the old days but with less sadistic feel and more joyful overtones. He just gives himself up to me, I can see the look in his eyes. 'Do your worst,' it says. 'I dare you.' Forcefully, arms wrapping around my shoulders to pull me down on him. His head rests on my forearms, his wild hair swirls with my own as we're consumed by a kiss of white hot passion. When we finally break, I have to pry myself away from him. So, Shigeru, you're not immune to arousal after all...
I soon discover there couldn't be a truer statement.
Moving down as he did, I find the clasp of his pants, take it in my teeth and yank it open, followed by more carefully undoing his zipper in the same fashion. When I look up, he's staring at me in disbelief, eyes wide, cheeks flushed.
"S-Satoshi..." he murmurs. I smile at him.
"What's the matter, Geru-koi? Never thought sweet little Sato-chan to be a passionate lover?" His face turns an even brighter shade of red and I simply laugh, pushing down his garments until I can toss them aside.
I feel my heart in my throat again, pulse pounding in my ears as I lay eyes on Shigeru's gorgeous body for the first time. Every detail and contour is lusciously highlighted and shadowed by moonlight as he's stretched out seductively in front of me, giving him a very ethereal appearance. His eyes watch me carefully and a faint smile plays across his lips. I... I never would have been able to imagine how beautiful he is if I'd dreamed a thousand years... But now I'm just so thankful that I'm given the privilege to bask in it...
Paying no heed to my deep breathing, I lower myself back down to the bed and feel dizzy with delight at the sensation of his flesh against mine, his legs, his chest, his stomach, his arms... his arousal... Which quickly reminds me of my own.
He pulls me against him for another ardent kiss, rolling me over and pinning me down to kiss me hard, forcing me into blissful submission again. I moan against his lips as he rubs against me, fanning the quickly growing flames. Oh gods, I need him... I need him so much...
"Shigeru..." I finally manage to beg breathlessly. "Please..."

...I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like I wanna be
I've got to be chained to you...

A few more nips and kisses are placed on my neck before he finds mercy and I hear the bedside table drawer slide open. A soft crinkle, something's pressed into my hand. Out of the corner of my eye I glance at the little square package. Shigeru stares at me when I put it on him.
"Sato-chan?" he sputters again, staring at me through the dimness. I pull him down on me, a blush hovering around my cheeks.
"What? Did you think I can only give it out but not take it?" I murmur with a smile but then look at him quite seriously. "It's what I want, Geru-kun. Make love to me..."
"Satoshi... I don't want to hurt you... I'm afra --"
"You won't hurt me. I know you won't. I trust you."
I swear I could see his eyes mist over briefly... Then his hand is laid across my cheek tenderly and he's looking deep into my eyes.
"Ai shite, Sato-chan," he whispers.
"I love you, too... my Geru-kun." I can't help but smile again. It's true... It's so true... He loves me. I can feel it somehow, I can feel it in his gaze and his fingertips and kisses. And I love him... I've never loved anyone so much... Lugia how I've missed you, Shigeru... Another lingering kiss is pressed against my lips.
"If I do anything you don't like, tell me right away, all right?" he says, expression nearly grave. I nod.
A sweet, gentle kiss is pressed against my lips, another one of those kisses that makes me want to cry. Tender, loving, his emotion is practically palpable in the simple brush of lips as he peers into my eyes through his own slitted hazel pools. Then harder, more passionate, deep kisses... I flinch at the unexpected pressure of Shigeru's exploring fingers, applying some sort of slick substance to my skin, but then his free hand soothes with a gentle palm brushing my cheek and I try to relax, brow drawn against new, unfamiliar sensations.
"Sato-chan..." he murmurs and quickly I pick up on the worry in his tone. I open my eyes to find him watching my face, lines of concern drawn over his lovely features. Wonderful Shigeru... Funny how for so long you feigned arrogance when you're really this beautiful philanthropic creature...
"It's all right," I whisper with a forced smile. "Just... different."
He buries another deep kiss between my lips, trying to keep my mind off his ministrations. I return the embrace thankfully, sliding my arms around his neck and choking back a whimper as he readies me for him. Soon though the pain gives way to something... something nice... And I find myself moaning against his kisses, aching for more of him to be inside of me...

...I can't take anymore because...

"Shigeru," I beg breathlessly, breaking my lips from his. "Please... I need you..." I shudder heavily as his fingers carefully leave me. All I can think is that I do need him, I do love him... And then he's poised at my entrance and I'm trembling beyond my own control with desire and he brings his face to mine again...
"I love you."
The sheer intensity of the statement I've heard several times tonight tears through me and I find tears forming in the corners of my eyes.
"I know," I whisper in reply, arching my neck a little to brush my face against his. "Show me..."
And then with a swift but graceful movement, we're one and a cry escapes me, somewhere between pain and pleasure. I'm his... I'm finally, finally his... I squeeze my eyes shut tight against the sensation of his size but again soon find the ache to give way to pleasure until I'm rising to meet his careful and relatively soft movements. A hungry moan fills my ears and I feel Shigeru's face pressed into the curve of my shoulder. He's fighting back even his desire to make sure I'm not hurt? Oh Geru-kun...
I duck my head to kiss his cheek, sliding my arms around him to pull him closer, trying to convey what I want. I'm all right Shigeru... I just want you to make love to me... I want to hear you cry my name, I want to feel you...
And feel him I do.
His first deep thrust shocks me and I cling to him desperately, still unsure whether my whimpers are pained or delighted...
"Shi... Shigeru..." He silences me with a kiss, slender arms wrapped protectively around me. I'm acutely aware of everything, hypersensitive to his wild hair brushing my face, tongue tracing the inside of my lips, chest rubbing against mine and stomach pressing on my arousal...

...I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like I wanna be
I've got to be chained to you...

Unbelievable.
This is... unbelievable... He emanates tenderness, passion, sensuality... love. This is what I've been missing. All that time I was being the tough-guy, when I was running away, when I was transfixed on success, when I was sleeping with Kasumi, when I was searching for what I needed... It was this. It was *him*. I needed Shigeru. I needed to share this with him, I needed his love, I needed him to know I love him... No one else could give me what I needed but my Geru-kun.
Shigeru, do you feel the same way? Lugia, I hope so... I hope you feel everything I feel... I hope I make your insides tremble the way you make me shiver, I hope the same passion courses through your blood as does mine when you touch me like this, I hope you feel my love...
A strangled cry muffled in my breast answers my thoughts. He does. He feels everything I feel... He knows...

...I feel the magic building around you...

I hear my name whispered, begged breathlessly and I know he feels it. I respond, finding my vocabulary's been cut down to one word:
"Shigeru..." How does he feel so good? How... Never in my life have I felt this good, felt this loved... I'm no particular rookie to sex but never like this, never with this love, this passion... These intense movements and ardent kisses and heartfelt phrases hissed in my ear. My mind's being bound in a cloud of fog, strangling my being with ever rising desire...

...I've got to...

A cry leaps from my lips as a firm, slender hand engulfs me and another hard kiss is pressed against my lips as Shigeru strokes me in time with our passionate love making. His panted breath beats on my cheek through his nostrils as he kisses me powerfully and it's all I can do to cling to him and try not to loose my mind at what he's doing to me... It's too much, it's just way too much and I feel as though at any second my world is just going to shatter into a burst of stardust but no... It keeps coming, he keeps loving me, touching me, kissing me.

...be chained...

With another moan, his lips break from mine for his breaths to beat against mine, face drawn as though in pain as he caresses me. And then... And then... His warmth is blanketing me, surrounding me, filling me and finally forces me to teeter on the edge of reality itself where his kisses are the wind whipping around me and his body is the sun beaming down on me and his love is the very air I breathe...

...to you...

And then another push of hips and another loving touch sends me into the throes of passion's heights and I cry his name, cling to him, and thrust unwittingly against my lover's gentle hand. Only a moment later, I hear my own name in the form of a feral snarl and then Shigeru's climax rocks me even in the pulse of my own. We hold each other tightly, lost to the moment, to the electric joy coursing through us both and all I hear is my name again and again...
Finally we come crashing down, Shigeru collapsing beside me and pulling me into his arms. I gasp for breath, limp in his embrace as his breaths pant against my hair where his face is nuzzled. We struggle to catch our breath, holding one another and I savor his skin, his scent... He's so incredible... Still breathing a little heavily, I reach up to brush away a few beads of sweat from his brow before resting against his softly heaving chest. I can feel him smile at me, I swear and then his arm loops around my waist and I close my eyes blissfully.
"Thank you, Geru-kun," I murmur. "That was incredible..." He makes a sound of agreement in his throat, giving me a little squeeze.
It's not until my idly stroking hand wanders over his stomach that I realize that we're both a little... sticky.
"We need a shower," I state brilliantly. Shigeru laughs -- he's got such a beautiful laugh too when it's real.
"Very perceptive, omaesan." I just lift my head to stick my tongue out at him and he laughs again. "Anou, this place has a really nice bath. Would you care to bathe with me, Sato-chan?" Does he even need to ask?!
"Hai!" I reply just a bit too eagerly and blush a little when Shigeru sits up, chuckling at me.
"Good answer, koibito," he whispers, smirking and places a soft kiss on my lips before gracefully slipping out of bed. I'm only vaguely aware of the lingering soreness left behind (no pun intended) as I watch Shigeru make his way through the shadows to find the bathroom door and flick on the light, flooding the room with a gentle glow. Pausing in the doorway, basking his gorgeous nudity in the light, he shoots another coy smirk at me over his shoulder, beckoning. I quickly scramble to catch up with not a smidgen of the grace he just displayed and end up falling off the bed in a most painful heap. Shigeru stands over me with a pained expression and heaves a sigh.
It's good to be home.

...I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like I wanna be
I've got to be chained to you...
